'AITA for laughing at a girl singing karaoke?' 'This is her main character moment.'

So last weekend my (25F) boyfriend (27M) went out for a friends birthday to a karaoke place. Important to note it was one of the ones where you rent out a private booth, you can order food and drink there and there’s one karaoke machine for everyone to take turns singing, but most the time it’s just everyone singing at once. It was a really good night, there were six of us in total and between ...

'AITA for selling my late wife’s cake recipe to a bakery?' 'I am wondering if I really am a j**k.'

My late wife pa*sed 3 years ago, our two kids were in their late 20s at the time. It's been a hard few years and it is even harder now that I live alone. She had a lovely dark chocolate cherry cake. It was my favorite thing that she would make and I always requested it for Father's Day. I am a s**t baker and I have tried to remake it from her notes. The notes are not very clear and it never turn...

Bride snaps at SIL for bringing up 'Bridgerton' while dress shopping, 'I don't want to hear about that show.' AITA?

I (25f) went wedding dress shopping a few days ago. It was a s**tshow. My fiancé is from a religious family and it was important for him to get married at his family’s church. It’s not som**hing I always wanted for myself, but his family is helping to pay for the ceremony and this means a lot to him. The problem is that his mom insists that I get a modest wedding dress. I tried on a bunch of d...

'AITA because I will not watch anything more complicated than a Hallmark movie with my wife?'

I love my wife. She is intelligent, and sweet. Also she is beautiful inside and out. She teaches high school English and Social Stud*es. She loves novels and usually has several on the go. However she cannot follow the plot of a movie to save her life. Unless it is about a big city lawyer visiting her home town to shut down the local factory but instead reconnecting with her high school boyfriend...

'AITA for not helping my husband get ready for work in the morning?'

I (25F) have been married to my husband (25M) for 4 years now. We have a child so it limits our schedule a lot. Here's how our mornings used to go 4 months ago : I would wake up around 6am, get ready and go to work by 645am. Husband would wake up when our 2 year old woke up. Usually around 645 to 7am, then gets ready and takes child to daycare. It worked for a bit but my husband hated the schedu...

'AITA for making my husband change gyms because his female gym budd*es flirt with him?' UPDATED 3X

I (38F) had a fight with my husband (41M) last week when I asked him to change his gym. He says it's not fair to him, but I told him it was important to me, and he agreed. As a week has pa*sed, I am not sure if I did the right thing and want to get neutral opinion on this matter. We have been married for 12 years and have two wonderful kids. My husband and I were into fitness when we got married....

I work out of town and my wife stays home with our two teen kids. When I'm home I take care of the housework to give my wife a break. The kids are supposed to help around the house in return for me paying for their phones and stuff. My wife chooses not to enforce that while I'm gone. Our income is split thusly. We pay all our bills. Including the kids phones. We set aside money for retire, vaca...

'AITA for publicly exposing my cheating BF at his birthday party?' + MAJOR UPDATE

So, this might be a wild one, but here goes. I (26F) have been dating my boyfriend Matt (28M) for two years. Everything was fine until a few weeks ago when I noticed he’d become super secretive with his phone. Before, he used to leave it out on the table, but recently he’s been taking it everywhere—like even to the bathroom, which seemed odd. One night, while we were watching a movie, his ph...
