AITA forbidding my wife from using my daughters old room

This has been an ongoing argument between my wife and I, but it resulted in a huge argument today and I’m starting to wonder if I’m in the wrong. I think it’s impossible for someone in my position to see my wife’s point of view fairly so tell me who’s the a*shole here. I’m also not interested in any relationship advice, our marriage is fine, it’s solely this topic/argument that I’m interested ...

I Locked Myself In The Guest Room With Our Newborn To Force Bonding Time

H**lo reddit, my daughter is 2 weeks old. I have barely held her since she was born. My wife constantly has her.

AITA for not letting my husband sit with us during girls night in?

My husband (35) is disabled, he's in a wheelchair and is home 24/7. Because he needs me around to a*sist him, I'd have him and his chair nearby while I do laundry or cook or clean. He's with me most of the time except for when I go to the bathroom, but even then he'd complain about me being away for so long. I don't even go shopping, everything gets delivered to our home. I haven't seen my ...

AITA for serving myself the biggest piece of meat?

My boyfriend and I have been together for about 2 1/2 years. We live together as of recently (4 monthsish) and we get along pretty well. We have a lot of separate hobbies, and one of mine is hiking. I wouldn't call myself a "peak bagger" but I do like to add mountain summits to my hikes when I can. BF doesn't enjoy hiking more than occasionally so he rarely comes along. For reference, I am ...
