OtherSo me and my fiance recently bought a house. The house has a plot of land next to it where a 2 car garage that burnt down a few years ago used to stand. The previous owner rather then rebuilding the garage decide to build a small playground on the land for the neighborhood kids to use. Apparently it became pretty popular. But seeing as we do not have kids and have no plan to have them....
OtherMy daughter had her 5th birthday this year at her grandparents home as we do every year, this year I had my parents fly in for the summer to spend time with us. They have a pool and it was a pool party, all the kids were in the pool and there were no adults in the pool so I went in to supervise. My daughter loves playing in the pool with me and asked me to throw her like I usually do, so I gra...
OtherI just turned 21 years old last month and I have spent the last few birthdays by myself due to being in college. About a month before my birthday, my mom and I are sitting in the living room when she asks me “What do you wanna do for your birthday this year?” I told her that it didn’t matter as long as I got to spend it with her, seeing as I was away at college for the last two years. (I took ...
Food & DietAITAH for canceling a reservation that my sister made for 12 people at a Brazilian steakhouse with the expectation for my vegetarian wife and I to pay for everyone. I said som**hing to my sister privately about not going to Brazilian steakhouses because my wife (of 20 years) can not eat there. She suggested that I would be able to save a few dollars on the total bill by my wife "taking one for...
RelationshipI'm a sucker for music and songwriting. I haven't written many songs, let alone record. But I had good inspiration and I wrote a very touchy one for my girlfriend who I've been with for 3 years. I even synthesised music for it and I want to record it and personally give it to my gf since its special for us. My family asked me to play them the song since its my first song that I've finished....
Family ConflictAlright so I'm the middle kid of three. My older brother is 10 months older than me. My younger brother is 2 years younger. So we're 17, 16 and 14. My older and younger brother HATE each other. They're always fighting and doing petty s**t to each other. It drives our parents crazy and takes up a lot of attention. Or at least that's the excuse my parents use. Even before it got really bad my pa...
OtherI live in a neighbourhood that's managed all by the same hedge trimming company. We all pay into this service and have the hedges trimmed a couple times a month. I was out on my private ground level patio, laying on the outdoor furniture because it's sweltering outside and I'm nearly 32 weeks pr****nt. My patio is covered by cedar fencing, so you can't see if someone is outside just by looking....
Family ConflictNephew in question is James (17m). He'll be 18 in December. The other nephew and nieces in question are Cole (28m) and Melody and Briony (30f). My sister is the biological mother of Cole, Melody and Briony. Their father d*ed when the kids were 8 and 10. My sister married James' dad 15 years ago and she never formally adopted him but did raise him as her son. There was a lot of tension an...
RelationshipI (28F) have a friend (27F) who texts me "Good morning!" every single day without fail. It was sweet at first, but after months it started to feel like an obligation rather than a genuine check in. I don’t mind occasional messages, but daily texts make me feel pressured to respond when I’m busy. So I politely told her I’d rather not get daily messages anymore. She got upset and now is acting l...
RelationshipMy (32M) wife (30F) and I have been married for 4 years, together for 7. When we met, she was very active and healthy. She used to run races, meal prep, and was generally full of energy. I admired her for her discipline and drive. Over the last couple of years, after her father d*ed, she has completely changed her lifestyle. She eats fast food almost daily, sometimes more than once a day. W...
OtherI fence in college on a co-ed team. My roommates and I, all juniors, rented a house and hosted a party for the current fencing team, their partners, and college-age friends. I specifically stated in the invite that inviting more than one guest, or anyone not from our school, required my prior approval. I have an issue with Pete, a 26-year-old alumnus, who frequently attends college parties atte...
RelationshipI work at a nice restaurant as a cook and everyday when I get off from work I always cook dinner for my wife and our 2 kids (8M and 6F) at the restaurant before coming home. I cook food for her and the kids at work AND on top of that I make separate dishes for each of them (what she wants and what the kids want) all that after standing on my feet all day. We talked about it once they left b...
