AITA for not sponsoring my son's father's "apology" for how he acted after my son came out?

My son (14) came out as gay to me and his dad in November. His father threw a huge tantrum about it and screamed horrible things at him (my son let me overhear a phone conversation where he called him a f*ggot and said he was obligated to have biological children). I don't really know all that happened because my son didn't want to tell me, but I was scared for his safety so when he didn't wan...

AITA ruining my friend's birthday party by taking back the cake I baked for her?

My friend is quirky. She was never diagnosed with anything but she is very clueless sometimes. I have had to spell things out for her a lot. Few months back, she borrowed a dress of mine. I really love that dress. There isn't any sentimental value but I got it when we were on vacation few years ago. She also loved the dress and one day just transferred the money to my account and told me that ...

AITA for not sharing my leftovers with my bf?

My bf (31M) is convinced that it’s a red flag that I (27F) don’t want to split my leftovers with him. Basically he’s much larger than I am, so he always finishes his meals when we go out, and since I’m smaller I tend to eat half and save the rest as a lunch for the next day during work. Recently he’s been arguing that it’s selfish of me to not share those leftovers with him if he asks for some...

AITA for telling my sister it's her own fault she's alienated from the family?

I am one of three siblings: 29F, 27F (me), and 22M. This all started about five years ago, when my older sister came to me and told me she was looking into our genealogy and wanted me to do one of those novelty genetics tests. I wasn't enthusiastic about it, but she was weirdly insistent, so I gave her the samples she asked for and moved on, not really giving it much more thought. At no poi...

AITA for telling my MOH to stop attacking me after I told her it'd suck to cancel two large life plans for her baby shower?

My Maid of Honor (29F) found out she's pr****nt and due in August. I (29F) live a plane ride away from her. We've been friends for 15 years. Today my MOH mentioned planning a baby shower in a group chat with me and our other friend, we can call him Ben (29M). She asked Ben, who is local to her, "How can I make sure you can attend the baby shower?" He has a demanding job. I have a salary j...

AITAH for finally telling my mother in law to back off after years of criticizing everything I pack for my husband?

I’m 27. My husband, Ryan, is 29. We’ve been married for three years. His mom, Doreen (she’s 51), lives ten minutes away. When we got married, I knew she was a little involved. She’d text him almost daily and guilt him for not visiting every weekend. When we got married, I figured it’d calm down. It didn’t. Now the thing is, Ryan works long hours. I do too, but I’m usually up earlier. So I s...

AITAH for Refusing to Share My Parents Inheritance With My Estranged Brother?

My (29F) parents passed away unexpectedly last year, and as painful as it was to process, things got even more complicated when I found out about their will. My brother (27M) and I were raised together, but he cut ties with our family when he turned 18, right after a massive argument with my dad. He’s always had a rebellious streak and thought our family was “holding him back.” After leaving, ...

AITAH for no longer meal prepping portions for my wife?

My [26m] wife [25f] and I are newly married, and we have lived together for a year. We get along well, and I can count on one hand how many times we’ve actually argued about som**hing consequential (obviously excluding joke arguments). Now, ever since I graduated high school, I have been super into meal prep. Every three to four days, I’ll cook up several different dishes. My favorites are curr...

AITAH for asking a woman to quit touching me?

Recently, I (34M) visited my local bar/restaurant, where I’ve been going about once every two weeks for dinner and drinks over the past two years. While I’m not a regular, the staff and some patrons recognize me and often come to chat. I’m not the best-looking guy, but I work hard at the gym and take care of myself. On my last visit, I was sitting alone at the bar, engrossed in my phone, wh...

AITA for firing my brother as my dog walker after having to pay a lot for the vet because of his lie?

My brother (24m) has been out of work for a while and has been looking to make any extra cash. I (27m) decided to start paying him to walk my dog in the mornings and evening. Not much but just so he has som**hing. Didn’t need him to because I was already doing that myself. But still been busy with work so at least him doing it meant I wouldn’t have to get up super early to walk Bella (my dog) ...

AITA for donating s**rm to one friend but not another?

I (29M) am a gay man with many q**er friends of various s*xual and gender ident*ties. I am in a long-term relationship and actually love other people's kids, but am uninterested in ever having my own children. Two years ago, one of my oldest, closest friends (a lesbian who we'll call M, now 30F) and her wife asked me if I would consider donating s**rm so they could have a child. I love M as muc...

AITA for inviting everyone to the BBQ/beach day except my SIL, her kid and her husband because they eat all the food?

I say this with a lot of hesitation but my SIL, her husband and their child are all severely obese. Both SIL and her husband are over 300lbs and their daughter, 12, is easily pushing 200. The type of people to buy a smoker and giant chest freezer for $3k+ but fail to pay their mortgage/land tax and ask the family to help them out and when they are called out on it, it's met with a "making sure...
