AITA for refusing to give up my seat on a flight due to a person who has a guide dog and is visiting a family member in hospital due to the fact that I have a dog allergy?

I have a severe dog allergy. I can have varying disease of severity when it comes to my reactions when I'm exposed to dogs. In short, being in a closed environment with a dog is out of the question. Earlier today, I was boarding my flight with my friends, since we're all going on vacation together. As I'm boarding, I find that one of the pa*sengers is boarding with a Golden Retriever, with a gu...

AITA for wanting my own room?

I (24F) and my fiancé (25M) are moving into a small 3 bedroom house together in a couple of months. I had never had my own room growing up and share a room with a roommate in my current living situation to save up money. I always felt the need to share and felt guilty when I wanted to be alone in my room but couldn't since someone else was there. The only time I had a room all to myself was wh...

AITA not wanting my husband's 17 yo brother to come with us on our vacation?

For context: My f25 husband's m27 remaining parent pa*sed away about 4 months ago. He has a 17 yo brother (Ryan) who is now living with their aunt. He's autistic and I kind of find it hard to interact with him and being around him generally gives me anxiety. Anyways, my husband and I planned to go on vacation and he told me that he would like to take Ryan with us to cheer him up a bit after all...

AITA for refusing to return my 400$ wedding dress like my fiancè requested?

I (f27) have been with my fiance for 2 years. He's 32, divorced doctor and lived in another town but we moved in together 7 months ago and got engaged. Unlike my exes, he's a decent, level-headed guy though he can be a bit overdramatic when it comes to financials. Growing up I've always dreamed of what my wedding dress will look like. I went wedding dress shopping with friends although my fianc...

AITA for refusing to pay for my boyfriend's food after he ruined my food photos?

I have an Instagram account dedicated to photos and short videos of food from local restaurants in my city. I don't turn meals into a whole photoshoot production when I go out, but I like to snap a few photos of everything as it comes out. I've got about 1000 followers, it's just a hobby for me but I have made friends with some other bloggers and we like to go out and get pics together and try...

AITAH for kicking my family out after they made my son cry for being gay?

My (37m) 15 year old son is gay. My wife and I are fully supportive of him. I thought my family was too but now I doubt that. They have been staying at my house for a few days since it's been a little while since we've seen each other in person. Everything was going great until yesterday. I was out running errands, when my son called me crying and asked me to come home. I asked what was wro...

AITA for asking to be charged for a man's haircut when I am a woman

I am a butch lesbian and for the past 12 years I have had a short, men's style haircut. I'm not talking about a pixie cut that requires a lot of styling and time. My sides are buzzed fairly short with the top a bit longer. It usually only takes about 10- 15 minutes for me to get a haircut. During that time every salon I've gone to has charged me for a full price women's cut. This has always an...

AITA for kicking my husband out of the delivery room?

My husband (34M) and me (32F) just had our first child today. We were in the delivery room together, all was going well, I was in a lot of pain, but he was really supportive. The midwife was asking us questions about the baby etc in between contractions just to help me ease my mind a little. Then she said if we are excited about the pregnancy being over and I said that yes, because it's been...

AITA for blowing up at my wife for going to her gender-reveal appointment without me?

My wife and I are expecting our first baby together. We made an appointment to find out the gender of the baby. To me, this is very important (I had hopes for a boy) unfortunately, the day of the dr appointment I had to attend my friend's birthday that I remembered last minute. I asked my wife if we could cancel the appointment and go another day but she looked shocked that I even considered c...
