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 pa*sed 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 ma*sive argument with my dad. He’s always had a rebellious streak and thought our family was “holding him back.” After leaving, ...

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 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...

AITAH for Telling My Husband to Help Feed His Own Kids?

I’m 26. My husband’s 30. We’ve got two little kids both under 5. For the past couple of months, he hasn’t been giving anything—no money for groceries, bills, or milk. I work part time, and I stretch what little I have, but it’s not enough. Every time I bring it up, he brushes me off or says he’s "stressed." We’re all stressed. So a few nights ago, I asked him straight up, can you at least buy ...

AITA for not leaving my parking spot because someone honked at me?

So on my (19m) trip to the grocery store, I ended up scoring a non-handicapped parking spot right by the front of the store. It's super hot here, so I decided to grab an ice cream bar. I was unwrapping it in my car, fully intending on driving off once opened (so I could eat and drive), when some old j**koff starts honking at me and wildly gesturing at me to get out of the spot. Now, if I had...

AITA for telling my girlfriend her hate for babies is pathetic and doesn't make her cool or edgy?

I (18m) have been dating my gf (19) for about four months. We met on instagram, I followed her for a while and she has a real grunge/edgy aestehtic going on. I thought she was super hot and cool, and when we started going out she was basically also a really edgy person. She makes the occasional cringey edgelord comment about hating people and how life was sooooo much better in the 80s (when sh...

AITA for refusing to consider being an organ donor for my abusive father even after my siblings begged me to save him?

My father was abusive to me (20sM) but was never abusive to my siblings (all 8+ years younger than me). We're full siblings. He is my father as much as theirs. But he always treated me like s**t and our mother allowed it so I don't have anything too nice to say about her either. In her own way she tried to be there for me. But she didn't save me from him and she sure as h**l didn't prioritize ...

Aita For telling my soon to be mother in-law if she wants kids she can adopt one

I'm a 25 year old female, and I'm blind. The whole idea of having kids scares me, and I honestly don't want any; and my fiance is also fine with this decision. Before Christmas my fiance and I went to see his mother, and aside from my parents they are the only other people we visit in person. While we were there, the subject of children came up; which is usual for his mom. She actually naggs...

AITA for leaving home after my partner let his son invite 5 friends for a sleepover when I'm recovering from major surgery, without discussing it with me first?

I (44F) had major surgery last week. I am home recovering and off work for 2 weeks, with 4-6 weeks recommended before resuming life relatively 'normally'. My partner (42M) informed me late yesterday afternoon that his son (13M) was having 5 friends for a sleepover tonight. It's now Sat**day where I live. I had no prior knowledge that he'd allowed his son to organise this and it's for no special...

AITA for not thinking of my sister's needs by saying I won't give my blessing for my family to move unless I can stay with my grandparents?

My sister (12f) has a bunch of different needs. She's got a physical disability, she's autistic and she has learning disabilities too. Because she has so much going on with her our parents always focused more on what she needed. My parents even sold the house we used to live in and downsized to a rental so they could afford more for her because they were struggling even with all the money they...
