AITA for not wanting to support my boyfriend's early retirement?

My boyfriend has just paid off his mortgage and now wants to take early retirement on £8k per annum. The only way he can afford to do this would be for me to move in with him and work full time so that the bills can be paid and he can do what he wants in his spare time. I am fifty and my own pension fund is not great so I don't expect to be able to retire for the next twenty years. Am I bein...

AITA for kicking out my friend which means she'll basically lose custody of her child?

My friend is a single mother going through a fight for custody of her 5 year old son. The son stays with the father most days and the father wishes for full custody. My friend and her ex are at odds due to my friend's living situation. She can no longer afford to live in her apartment and moved into a shelter briefly which becomes a unanimous "no" in terms of custody battles. If you don't have...

AITA not telling husband I know he’s gay

I’ve known my husband is gay for several years now. At the very least he’s a gay-leaning bi-man. Our s*x life has deteriorated consistently over the course of our marriage, and a few years ago I found his stash of gay p**n on his work laptop (wasn’t snooping, it as on accident). The thing is, I actually enjoy my marriage. My husband is kind and considerate. We have three beautiful kids (9, 12, ...

AITA for walking my friends’ under-exercised dog more than they usually do – which led to vet costs and now drama?

My friends (let’s call them J and P) adopted a 2-year-old rescue dog (I'll call him B) about three months ago. Before that, B had lived in a bas**ent with little to no stimulation. He’s a super sweet dog but noticeably under-exercised: they walk him about 1–2 km per day and he’s alone for 6–8 hours daily. He often seems restless, whiny, overly excited around other dogs – cla*sic signs of under...

AITA For not wanting to go to my sister's wedding?

My sister is getting married next month. My husband and I were both planning on going but when we got the invitation it was only for me. When I called my sister and asked about it she said my husband was of course fine to come but she requested that he not be in any family photos. My husband is in a wheelchair. I've been married to him for 8 years. He has been in a wheelchair since he was 16 an...

AITA for telling my sons girlfriend to stay away from him because she is distracting him from his responsibilities.

I (50M) am a single father to my son (15M). My son has been making exceptional grades and he plays for his high school's baseball team. That was until he started dating a girl (17F). They've been dating for the past few months and they seem very happy together, but my problem is that my son's grades have been slipping, he's been skipping out on ch**es at the house, and missing practice/games. ...

AITA for not letting my neighbor’s kid ruin my lawn in the name of imagination?

I live in a quiet suburban neighborhood with your standard backyard, some gra*s, a few old trees, a weathered shed. Nothing fancy, but I try to keep it tidy. I'm on polite-but-not-close terms with most neighbors. We wave, sometimes chat about the weather, and that’s about it. There’s a family two doors down with a boy who’s maybe 9 or 10. Lately, he’s gone full pirate mode. I mean fully com...

AITA for kicking my son out after he p*ed on his bed multiple times?

I (44 F) will start by saying that my son (“Luke”) is 18 years old, he is not a child, and he purposefully p*ed on his bed multiple times. We have a housekeeper (“Mary”) that helps me with the laundry, cleaning, etc and she only brought it up after it had already happened over and over again. I could tell she was very uncomfortable when she explained the situation, she said she had been cleani...

AITA for calling the police on my brother.

So for Christmas my mother got me and my wife a pride flag, and we hung it on the outside of our garage. It got stolen a few days ago, but since we have cameras we were able to figure out the culprit was my brother. This isn't a huge surprise, I came out at 12 and in the 32 years later and he has been nothing but horrible to me because of that. I decided even so to call him up and ask him to re...

AITA for kicking out my dad and his pr****nt wife out of the home I legally own after they sent my depressed sister to live with our aunt?

My mother pa*sed away 3 years ago. The family home, where I and my sister grew up, was willed to me. It was her ancestral property, and she wanted her daughter to have it. The other vacation home went to my 16 year old sister. Our father remarried 6 months after mom pa*sed away and moved his new wife in. My sister says that that woman has removed all of our family pictures from the main living ...

AITAH for leaving my “autistic” fiancé in Target?

I, (32M) have a fiancé , Katie. (30F) Katie spends a lot of time online, consuming a lot of short form content. Over the last year or so, Katie has been watching a lot of autistic creators on TikTok and has been talking about them non-stop. She began making jokes/pa*sing comments about her acting autistic, blaming things on “the tism’” which I mostly ignored. Then, she brought up seriously ...
