AITA for leaving my son's wedding after he denied his stepmom a mother-son dance

My son "Jordan" is 27. His stepmom "Natalie" came into his life when he was 16. His mom had pa*sed away when he was 13. Jordan never really considered Natalie as his his mom. He refused to let her get close and shut down every attempt to have a close relationship. He even moved in with his aunt months after Natalie and I got married. As years went by, they started reconciling and seeing eac...

AITA for laughing at my niece's gift?

My 12-year old niece is really into arts and crafts, and recently got into crocheting. Before Christmas, she told me that she had a surprise gift for me, and seemed really excited about it. I told her I was really looking forward to it as well, and prepared her gift myself (which was actually art supplies). On Christmas when we had our family gathering, she brought me her gift, and was supe...

AITA for asking my girlfriend to start making me breakfast every morning?

I (27m) have been living with my girlfriend (29f) for several months now. For the most part things are really good and I plan to propose soon and hopefully have at least a couple of kids with her. However we've run up against a conflict. She's an absolute morning person. I hate mornings. By the time I force myself out of bed in the morning and into the shower she's already been up for at lea...

AITA for leaving the restaurant before my boyfriend's family arrived after I was told that I was going to pay for their meals?

I (f29) have been dating my boyfriend (m35) 'Ricky' for 5 months. He's divorced but hates this word and goes with the word "divorcee" instead since the first one makes it sound like he was "dumped" when it was him who initiated it. He always goes on long rants about his exes and says stuff like "I hope you don't have this awful habit my ex has" or "hope you like XYZ cause my ex didn't" and the ...

AITA for making my daughter share her presents with my stepdaughter?

I (40f) was a single mother to my daughter, Amy (15f). I came out 3 years ago and married my wife Jenna (42f) last year. She has a daughter, Nora (13f). We all live together as I have full custody of my daughter. It was kind of hard for her to adjust to having a second mom, but they got along well. The girls have their birthdays very close, only two days apart, so we decided to have a joint...

AITAH for letting my boyfriend get a taste of his own medicine?

My (29F) boyfriend (27M) has this habit of constantly calling me "d**b" or "s***id". It started as a joke, and at first, I laughed along. But over time, it became his go-to way of addressing me, no matter the situation. I asked him, begged him to stop, especially in front of his friends, but he would just chuckle and say, "What? But you are d**b." His friends even picked it up, and now they ca...

AITA for telling my son he has to go to university, get a job, or get out?

My wife and I have three children. They are 17, 15, and 10. My oldest has no intention to do anything after high school. At least none he has made clear to us. So I gave him the same ultimatum my parents gave me. Either go to university, get a job, or GTFO. I chose to travel the world for two years. I had a lot of sailing experience and my father had a lot of friends in that community so I was ...

AITAH for breaking up with and kicking my girlfriend out because she went to an afterparty without me?

I [24m] and my girlfriend [23f, Anne] began dating in college. Last week, Anne invited me to her co-worker’s (Joe) party. I had heard a lot about him in the past, and he and she really seemed to have a lot in common, especially with their taste in music. Apparently he was an amateur musician with a fairly successful YouTube channel. Joe initially invited only Anne, but when she asked him if I ...
