AITA for refusing to make an exception for my brother's son to attend my childfree wedding just because he's a rainbow baby?

Hi. I (f, 33) am getting married come october to my fiance Derek. Wedding planning went okay, but as soon as we started sending out invitations, the problems began coming our way. Thing is, Derek and I decided the wedding would be childfree; it wasn't out the blue, and this possibility was there. I have a 42-year-old brother, Paul, who's married, but he and his wife suffered from several miscarri...

AITA for giving my son a better life and spoiling him more than his siblings will ever get to be?

About 9 and a half years ago, my wife cheated on me, got pr****nt, and left me for him. The courts gave them custody of our son because single dad vs family. I've since gotten remarried and had a couple kids (7 and 5 and a half). My ex and her new man have also had 2 more kids. Wife and I both work as engineers and have dang good salaries, to put it lightly. My ex and new husband haven't ever do...

AITA for sending a video of my Uncle's stand up to his wife after he made horrific jokes about us?

I (22F) found out my Uncle Robert (45M) does stand-up at amateur open mic nights. I was sitting at the bar with my girlfriend when he was announced. I didn’t realize he was at the bar, but was excited to see him perform. I told my girlfriend (Amber) (25F) who he was, and she was like, “Oh yeah, he is here a lot. You might not like his bit.” I asked why and she said he talks s**t about his family...

AITA for not using my inheritance money to help my brother and his family out?

H**lo, this is my first time posting on AITA and English is not my first language so sorry if the format is not right. Background- Me (19F) and my brother (32M) became orphans 10 years ago due to an accident our parents were in. My parents had always been a bit paranoid when it came to their mortality, so they had a set plan in case they pa*sed. They left a significant amount of money for each o...

AITA for being surly, rude and mean at a wedding and leaving early?

I was asked to be a member of the wedding party. Despite this, I was THE ONLY person, not only in the wedding party, but also at the ceremony, who wasn't allowed to have a +1. This was an outdoor wedding with unlimited seating, and these people don't give a s**t about COVID, so it wasn't about that. I was told it was because my relationship wasn't "serious" enough, despite us being together for a...

AITA for full-on raging at my parents after they spent £1,300 of my money for my brother's gaming PC set?

For a bit of context, around a year and a half ago, when I was 15, I came up with a plan to pay for my own university fees once I finish school. It's a little expensive (between the 4 to 5 figure range and my family isn't the richest one so yh), so I wished to save my parents the trouble of paying and do everything myself. I planned to save up enough money until I can invest in some cheap land b...

AITA For not switching places with my friend and ruining her life

This happened a couple weeks ago but I'm still getting s**t about it. A friend of mine, Daya (fake name), asked me if I wanted to come with her on some errands and see her new car. I said yes because I had some things to get done and my car was being checked over. (We're in the same bubble and stayed masked the whole time) Well while we were out Daya ended up hitting another car while turning le...

AITA for getting angry at my parents after they refused to look after my children?

I have two children, my son (4) and my daughter (2). Raising two children at a young age has been really difficult, however, I was able to graduate from college with a good degree and start a career that I am happy with. Despite this, the struggle of trying to juggle the responsibility of looking after my kids and focusing on my career is stressful to say the very least. My fiancé (26) also work...

AITA for not wanting a bday party after being refused a present I wanted?

I (17F) will be turning 18 in a couple of days, and naturally, my mom asked me to pick a present I want. My mother is not by any means a greedy or inconsiderate person. She raised me and my brother alone ever since I was old enough to remember and she's been trying her hardest to care for us, which is why I respect and love her the most. I asked for the same thing, a 120 colored pencils Faber Ca...

AITA for expecting my fiancée to not wear her late fiancés ring anymore?

My fiancée (M) was engaged before me. Her fiancé pa*sed away in a pedestrian car accident 3 and a half years ago. We met a year and a half after he pa*sed on tinder. On our first date she told me what happened and then I noticed an engagement ring on her right hand ring finger. I didn’t say anything. A couple months in I brought it up and M said that she will wear the ring on her right hand unti...

AITA for telling my adult daughter the truth about why I wasn't in her life?

Recently, I got back in contact with my adult daughter M, after having had nothing to do with her since her birth. She's 25 now, but honestly I wasn't around from her birth all the way through to when her mother d*ed a couple years ago. Now, I know I'm not a perfect person here, I've done some bad things, but in this case I don't think I was the bad guy. M's mother and I dated for about a year a...

UPDATE - AITA for kicking my wife and her daughter out of my house?

Hey guys, a lot of you asked me how I am doing and for an update. It has been a couple of weeks since the incident now. I met with my wife, and we discussed everything. She wanted to continue with our marriage and give it a second chance, but I told her I want a divorce. It was very hard for me, but in the end, I think it was the right thing to do. I still love my wife, but I don’t want to be ca...
