AITAH for refusing to wear pants and long-sleeved shirts to pick up my son?

Six weeks ago my wife (36) and I (38) moved across the country with our son (5) to live in my late grandma's old house that we inherited. We are from Seattle and moved to a town in Texas, and honestly, my wife and I hate living here, but it is financially better for us for the time being, plus I am attached to my grandma's house. I have a lot of tattoos and long hair, just a general look that i...

AITA for wanting to hire a full-time maid even though my fiancé thinks it’s unnecessary?

My fiancé and I go 50/50 on everything financially, and we both have good jobs — I actually earn a bit more than he does. We live together and have two large dogs (a Golden Retriever and a Border Collie), so our house gets messy pretty quickly with all the fur and daily life. When we first moved in, I took on most of the cleaning and cooking. I used to enjoy cooking for him, and we’d sometimes ...

AITA For getting a lock for my office door after what my husband did?

I F33 am an art teacher working at a middle school. I love my job because I grew up as an artist. I loved drawing and making art work growing up. I'm blessed I get to do what I love, share my knowledge and experience with others and get paid for it! I recently started teaching a new cla*s. It's been great so far the cla*s is always excited to learn and participate in different activities while ...

AITA For Not Letting A Woman Cut The Line At The Grocery Store?

Hi Reddit. I need your opinion on grocery store etiquette and not letting someone cut the line. Tonight after work I stopped by my local grocery store to grab a handful of items to make dinner. 5 items in total. I maneuvered my cart behind an older woman who was slowly navigating putting her groceries on the belt to be checked out. She was the only person I noticed in front of me. A few min...

Feels like my husband dropped the ball while I was in hospital, now he’s demanding divorce or couples therapy instead of taking accountability. AITAH?

Last week I was in the hospital for seven days, during that time I had severe pain, nausea, v**iting, and I was also simultaneously diagnosed with HSV – one, but because I am immuno compromised the ulcers went into my oesophagus and digestive tract as well as stomach. I could not eat or drink during this time my husband came and visited me three out of the seven days I was there the maximum am...

AITA for teaching my daughter her father's native language against his wishes?

I (30F) am a white American woman. My ex-boyfriend, the father of my daughter (30M) is Chinese-American. We began dating our junior year of college, and after graduation moved in together. We eventually got serious enough to consider marriage, and I began learning Chinese as a way of connecting to his culture and family. I'm not totally fluent, but I can hold fairly complex conversations. W...

AITA for evicting my uncle from the house my grandma left me?

I know this is going to sound crazy but just hear me out. My grandmother pa*sed last month and I've been handling her estate. She left me her house valued at about $400,000 but here is the twist no one knew until now. My uncle has been living in the bas**ent of the house for 3 years. Not visiting, but living. Grandma never told any of us where he was. He lost his job during covid, got divorced,...

AITA for refusing to hyphenate my last name?

My mom got married recently and she and her husband to hyphenate their names and form one family name. Her husbands kids and my half siblings are all on board with changing their names to the hyphenated version. I am not on board with this for me. I have expressed this at least 20 times since it first came up. I don't want my name changed and I will not stand up in court and consent. My mom is...

AITAH for shaming an American for only knowing English after he mocked me for mispronouncing an English word?

I'm French, living in Paris. My parents are both from Spain and raised me speaking Spanish. And I taught myself English through reading novels and news in English. So I'm perfectly trilingual. My American friend Max, who's spending one year stud**ng at La Sorbonne, only speaks English. He often uses me as a French translator for him; he tells me in English what he wants to say, and I repeat it...

AITA for quitting a job on the spot when they gave me a bad evaluation after only working 15 hours?

I was talking about this with my sister the other day and she thinks it was a bit of an a*shole/drama move on my part. When I was 23, I started working at a clothing store in the mall for some extra money. I was there for about a week, though I only worked some short training shifts. I worked a total of 15 hours. The managers pulled me aside and said they gave me an evaluation. It would hav...

AITA for telling my wife’s friend she is too old and ugly after she repeatedly asked my 19-year-old son to take off his shirt? He was getting uncomfortable.

My family had a small get together at my house. One of my wife’s friends was over (she is unmarried I think she is 45-47)? We aren’t too close to her since she lives pretty far away. She was over our house and she started complimenting my son (my son is 19). It starts off innocent but as time goes on it gets more and more crossing the line. When we were out on my deck she starts telling my ...
