Food & DietI (19F) am a university student living with two roommates (19F & 25F). My roommate, the 25-year-old, has been consistently eating the food I meal prep on Mondays for Tuesday through Friday, despite my long schedule that keeps me out of the house until 7 pm. If I prep for the week, the food is gone by Wednesday night, leaving me nothing for Thursday and Friday. When confronted, her excuse wa...
RelationshipI love my wife very much, but she often frustrates me. I am a large man (6’4") and I am constantly hungry because I work as a firefighter. My wife usually eats lighter meals like salads and nuts, but she consistently takes food from my plate. I have asked her many times to stop, but she becomes defensive, saying it is just a small amount and I will not miss it. However, I do miss it, and when ...
Relationshipso this is one of those situations where i think i’m justified, but my wife is saying i took it too far and now her whole family is p**sed at me. i’ve been married to my wife (29f) for about a year, together for five. everything’s been good overall, but her family is… intense. very tight-knit, very in-your-business type people. i’ve always tried to be respectful, even when they’re kind of o...

RelationshipI recently kicked my sister out of our home for the way she reacted to a photo of my husband & his first wife. I met him a few months after she d*ed in a car accident, got married 2 years after that. We've been together 6 years. He was devastated when she d*ed. I told him I never expected to "replace" her in any way & considered myself another chapter in his life. I was warmly accepted into ...
OtherI 25M live in my family’s cottage which I was given ownership of. The cottage itself is a waterfront property facing a medium-sized lake. My family has been living here for generations as my great grandfather originally bought it before pa*sing it down eventually leading to me. My neighbors are a different story as many of the people I have known since childhood has moved out. The houses that ...
ParentingHi, Reddit. I (20M) am a college student living at home while I save money. My older sister, Sarah (27F), has two kids (3M and 5F). Sarah works full-time, and since she’s a single mom, she often asks me to help babysit when her daycare falls through or she has errands to run. I love my niece and nephew—they’re great kids—but babysitting them isn’t easy. Between my cla*ses, part-time job, and t...
OtherWork at a supermarket and we regularly have this lady come in to do her shopping. She’s always by herself and never has anyone else for her, no carer or anything. This lady is completely confined to her wheelchair and has extremely limited motor sk**ls to the point where she can only slightly move her fingers. She cannot speak at all, besides little mumblings that are completely unintelligible....
WorkI (23M) have a coworker (25M) who is a mooch. If you get som**hing for lunch, he wants you to get him som**hing too, but expects you to buy it for him because since you mentioned it, he says you offered. At first I thought maybe he had money problem, but then overheard him laughing and bragging to someone in another department about how he was able to scam lunches out of his coworkers, and he’...
RelationshipI honestly can’t believe this situation has come to this, and I really need some outsider perspective. I’m a 35yr old man, and I was two beautiful daughters, Lucy (7) and Molly (16). I adopted them both and have raised them by myself for their entire lives. I also have a sister, Julie (33F) who is getting married in two months to Paul (35M). Both Julie and Paul are lower middle cla*s and ha...
OtherI'm known in the family to be a "control freak" about preparing food. In fact, in my family, there are 2 dinners in the year that all members come (in all 30 people) and before I took over, all dinners were extremely late, there was always some problem with seasoning or poor preparation. I'm organized and for every meal, I have a spreadsheet with everything I need to make a huge scale dinner. ...
RelationshipWe separated in 2021 and then divorced in 2022 after 6 years together. Basically, we wanted kids but found out I can't have them and the relationship broke down over a disagreement about the potential fertility treatments and timescales of it all - she basically couldn't wait on the amount of counselling/therapy I'd need before I'd consider things like s**rm donation. I'm 41, she's 34. As t...
