AITA for buying an extra airline seat (and utilizing it) even though I don't need it?

I hate flying to the point that I will gladly drove 10-15 hours to avoid a 4 hour flight. It's not that I'm scared of flying, I just hate everything from the security theater to the cramped seats that leave me sore for days. So I only fly if I can buy a second seat (or third if I'm flying with my wife). It lets me stretch my legs out if needed, not feel trapped mentally, and not sit next to ann...

AITA for telling my waitress's manager she did a great job?

I met a girl online and we clicked, and have gone on a couple dates. Two nights ago was our third date and I was treating her to dinner at a local burger place in the city. Nothing fancy, I just wanted some good conversation over a tasty meal. This girl is a knockout, has the rare quality of being a great listener, and isn't obsessed with herself. She's funny, charming, and smart. We had had s...

AITA for refusing my future sister in law's request to dye my hair for my brother's wedding?

My future SIL Liz has turned into a bridezilla and is going to war with everyone over every s***id thing. My natural color is red. I love my hair. Liz is a blonde but she loves to have red hair and in fact ever since meeting me she's been d**ng her hair almost exactly my color. I don't mind, I think it's weird that she does it but I don't have a monopoly over this particular shade of red and sh...

AITA for demanding my husband to pay me the $1000 dollars he spent behind my back?

My husband (33) and I (31) used to have a 2 income home but in 2020 we've lost our home and one of our incomes (his). My husband has an expensive habit of going to the spa for a weekly ma*sage session. we live in an urban area so this stuff is ridiculously expensive. A single session is 250$, and he has to have it every week so that'd be nearly 1000 a month!. I offered him to have his sessi...

AITA for reporting my car stolen when my sister took it after I told her not to?

My sister's car broke down six months ago because of her own poor decision-making regarding a mechanic's advice. I offered her my car temporarily since I could bike to work while she needed to drive. She never fixed her car, claiming she was saving money, but spent her paychecks instead. My parents even offered her a loan, which she refused. She has been abusing my generosity, taking my car al...

AITA for giving my child a "culturally inappropriate" name?

I am black, and my wife is also black. I spent my most of my childhood in the foster system, but for a good part of it I was taken care of by an elderly Russian gentleman (we'll call him Dimitri Petrovitch). While he never formally adopted me, he played a major role in my upbringing, and I am very grateful for all that he has done for me. Unfortunately, he pa*sed away many years ago, and he ne...

AITA for saying “I love you more than anything” to my daughter in front of my wife

My daughter is 3, and sometimes gets scared I’ll stop loving her when she does som**hing bad(for no good reason mind you, I make sure she always knows why I’m upset, and that I’m mad at her actions, not her). Today she b*mped a gla*s off the table and started crying. She asked if I still love her and I said “I love you more than anything” and gave her a kiss. My wife was watching and storme...

AITA for my response to my sister's boyfriend's "brutal honesty"?

My F35 sister F27 started dating one of those "brutally honest" guys few months ago. He can be quite rude and make backhanded comments about me and the family sometimes which is bothersome but my sister says he's not malicious but is just the brutally honest time and we should get used to it. I visited my parents house to celebrate my sister's birthday and my husband couldn't come with me becau...

My husband (m33)s best friend (m37) Will is infertile. He got divorced 2 times because of it and because he lied and hid his infertility.

He has always had a soft spot for children and when he found out that my husband and I are expecting, he was so thrilled and started buying us gifts and decor pieces that he made from his w...
