AITA for being upset that my husband was adamant on going to a football game less than 24 hrs after the birth of our child

My husband (27M) and myself (26F) have welcomed our beautiful new baby girl to the world on Monday evening just before midnight. She was 6 weeks early, and will need 5/6 days support in the neonatal unit, with me being an inpatient with her. We have an almost 3 year old at home. When I went into labour on Monday, we dropped my toddler off with my mum, who watched her over night on the Monda...

AITA for not reminding my fiance that stoves are hot?

Last night, my fiance (31m) and I (30f) were winding down our days getting ready to make dinner. Together in the kitchen, I popped the chicken in the oven. Also in the oven was our cast iron pan. We go back to our respective video games and then when the chicken was getting cl**er to finished, I go out to the kitchen to start on veggies. I take the now 400° cast iron out of the oven, turn on...

Aitah for not telling my wife my cousin is insanely wealthy?

I am 31M, my wife is 34F, my cousin is 33F, her husband is 35M. My cousin and her husband own a fairly large farm and that is my cousin's pride and joy. Not one single person was surprised when she bought it. Her husband is a pipe welder and makes good money as well. My cousin and her husband are well known in the community and very well respected they do a lot for the community. With all t...

AITA for telling my husband I don’t need him at any of my doctors appointments

I (47F) have been diagnosed with Stage 2a b***st cancer. I got my diagnosis in September. Since then I have been at every appointment by myself. My husband has not been at one appointment with me, despite me attending every appointment he has ever had over our 31 years together. Tonight we got into an argument because I am not feeling s*xual due to what I am going through. The argument toni...

AITA for not wanting to talk about my children that I lost in the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami?

In 2004, my family and I decided that over the Christmas period we’d go on vacation to Thailand. My husband had spent some time there as a child and really wanted to go back. I had two small children, a 4 year old girl and a 2 year old boy. We arrived on the 23rd of December and were due to go back on the 2nd of January. On the 26th, Boxing Day, a tsunami hit the resort we were staying in. I w...

UPDATE: AITAH for giving my husband silent treatment after he told me my post-birth body turns him off?

After receiving feedback that ignoring a spouse can be abusive, I decided to have a proper conversation with my husband about what he said recently. I explained how deeply his comments about my body, especially after just giving birth, have offended and upset me. He acknowledged that what he said was 'messed up' but insisted he cannot 'help' what he finds physically arousing. My body has th...

AITAH for blaming my sister, not me, when her son ate my space brownies?

I live in a state where w**d is 100% legal and sold in stores FYI. I usually buy ingred*ents from my budtender then bake myself ma****ana-laced sweets. I make large batches so there's often some in my fridge. Yesterday my sister and parents dropped by unannounced (they called literally 30 mins before being at my door to tell me they decided to visit and were on the way), my sister's 5yo son Jas...

AITA for telling my son's friend the truth about why his mom doesn't want him playing with my son?

My son and his friend are both in the second grade. We moved into the area in the middle of covid and my son quickly made friends with a boy in the neighborhood. For the first couple months it was fine - they got along perfectly, I put the house in order, and was able to work from home so childcare wasn't an issue. The problem was when my husband got back from his deployment. He was the one to ...

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 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...
