AITA for telling my boyfriend my body count after he kept asking, even though it ruined our relationship?

I (F22) have been dating my boyfriend (M26) for almost six months. He’s active duty Army, stationed near my hometown, and we met through mutual connections when he came out one weekend. Things moved fast (as they often do with military guys, not gonna lie), and by month two, we were already talking long-term even discussing what life would be like if we got married and moved together for his n...

AITAH for telling my wife she owes me an apology for these last seven years of marriage?

I’m 32, and my wife is 32. We dated in high school and got married seven years ago. My wife has always been a s**tterbrain. Before marriage, she was always misplacing things and leaving everything half-finished. She was chronically late, had clutter all over her living space, and would get bursts of frustration about these messes which would lead to hyperactivity into not really doing anything ...

AITA for tearing down my half sister when she asked me why I couldn't have saved my mom's name for her to use for a future daughter?

I (27f) gave birth to my first child a month ago. My husband and I named her after my late mom and a favorite name of ours for her middle name. My mom d*ed 10 years ago and using her name was always som**hing I wanted to do. When my half sister (24f) first heard the name she got a little pouty and asked me why I didn't see if she wanted to use the name instead and she said she had always imagi...

AITA for telling my husband his request for a "dad-cation" after the baby is born is completely selfish? 🤰😡👶✈️

So, I (21F) am currently 7 months pr****nt with our first baby, and my husband (32M) has been super supportive throughout the pregnancy. He’s attended every appointment, helps out around the house more, and I really appreciate him for that. HOWEVER, a few days ago, he dropped this insane idea on me, and I’m still reeling. He says he wants to go on a “dad-cation” after the baby is born… basi...

AITAH for telling my daughter I won’t break up with my girlfriend just because she doesn’t like her?

My ex wife and I finalised our divorce proceedings a couple of years ago. I had fallen out of love with her for a mult*tude of reasons, the biggest being her emotional affair which lasted a couple of weeks. My ex wife did try really hard to save the marriage, but my feelings for her had almost evaporated after her emotional affair. The divorce was painful, but it was also amicable because for ...

AITAH for wanting to take a break from my wife after she emasculated me in front of our friend group?

My wife and I have been married for 10 years and we have 3 children aged 7, 5, and 3. Last night, we invited a few of our college friends and their families over for dinner. We all had a blast, there were drinks, and we were all pretty drunk. My wife made a comment which pretty much emasculated me. I don’t even know what the context was, but my wife was joking about how even though I was fa...

AITAH for telling my best friend her marriage is doomed at her bachelorette party and accidentally getting the wedding canceled

This weekend was a disaster... I 27F have been best friends with Amy 28F for years. She has been with this guy Jake for about three years, and honestly, he is a walking red flag. He is super controlling, jealous, and always checking her location. Once, he called her nine times while we were just shopping at Target. Amy keeps defending him, saying he is just protective because he cares so much....

AITA for putting my husband on the spot choosing between me or an unborn baby

I could make this so long, but I won’t. I am also not trying to stir up a political argument on here, just need to vent. In a nutsh**l, my husband and I are in a huge argument. He is adopted and is getting choose life plates on his car. I see where he is coming from and why he wants to get them. but I don’t agree with him having those plates because I personally don’t think it’s any of his bus...
