"Joe is my husband's son" OP wins the subreddit for the day as a consolation prize.

[RepellentJeff]

OP: *_(Witnesses what was, for all intents and purposes, an attempted kidnapping)_*

OP’s Friend: “ReAD ThE rOoM!”

We as a species are seriously getting stupider by the day.

Maybe we're reading two different books? Because if someone attempts to kidnap my friend I'm going to be fighting back.

Story 1: Oh man, did the husband screw up. Both by hiding the fact that he had a son he never told OP about on top of letting the son acting that way with no real consequences from his father and employer.

[kratkartan]

OP: *reads the room and acts accordingly*
dumb friend: You should have read the room because it wasn't a real kidnapping and not done anything.

OP needs to dump the friend now and leave her to fend for herself.

[NixonMK]

First OP removing himself from that situation is the best thing he can do for himself. That young man has no respect for his father and the OP was collateral damage

[holyek]

Gosh. I really thought the husband was playing baker with the 19yo kid. At least I'm glad I'm wrong. Poor OP.

[aubreymorgan]

OP no 2....love a friend like that. she beat up two guys basically to save her friend. She is gold. and who does a proposal like that, i'd dump the guy and press charges anyone tried that crap.

Story 1: OP is not the A-hole. Joe is an HR nightmare. Fire him, NOW!

[Clyde-S-Wilcox]

Story 2: NTA. That was a felony, not a prank, and emily is brain dead.

[YvonneFobbs]

Story #3: Imagine how he will be when the baby comes and he complains that you are paying too much attention to the baby! Just divorce him!

[LunarWolf-Star]

Story 2: Who the frick hears "I want a Proposal like in the movies" And thinks, ah yes they want to be traumatized by a kidnapping real or not. Like what the frick. When I hear "I want a Proposal like in the movies" I think like a proposal on the beach during a sunset or during a stargazing picnic or at the place their first date was or heck at a vacation destination like France or Italy.

Emily telling OP to 'Read the Room' is like telling you to listen carefully to someone but they're speaking in Klingonese!

[samoanjoseph]

Prank proposal: like in the movies??? What damn movie has a kidnapping that’s actually a proposal???

[Azulakayes]

Story 1: That ESH is disingenuous and horrible. Pretending you can't yell at a disrespectful idiot who calls you slurs is a lie. OP's husband is an extremely horrible man. OP is NTA. He has been insulted and disrespected by both his husband and that lousy kid.

[muhname]

"Proposal": every one's talking about "read the room" I'm stuck on :like the movies" what movies are they watching.

[mellttabor]

Story 2- YOUR MY HERO! Spray away! Emily is an idiot…. READ THE WORLD! This was not considered a prank!

[paperkay]

My husband and I call one another "fatty", "dumb-dumb", "little fart machine" and so on - stupid couple's silly names. They are ours to call and it's the tone and privacy that makes it silly and cute. For anyone else to say something like that to either of us... Like, dude... NO. You-re not invited. Op's husband watching their employee verbally belittle his own spouse is just insane.

[jillmoore]

WTF is wrong with these idiots who think abduction is a funny prank. Who dropped these idiots on their heads? I've seen a couple of these postings about this as a prank. This is terrifying that anyone is stupid enough to think this is a joke. I would never speak to anyone who would do this ever again.

story 3, I hope the OP has a safe pregnancy with the second chid in her life, though i am not sure she should keep the first one, he seems a bit bratty
