AITA for leaving a bad review on a small store

So my boyfriend and I have a tradition for our anniversary that we each go to a store and separate, and after we buy each other gifts we exchange in the car. It’s silly and cute. We walked into this new mom & pop anime store (I am a huge anime nerd and my boyfriend likes video games which they also sell). We separate and I go look at stuff for my boyfriend. A worker walks up to me and starts...

AITA for refusing to help my parents even if they end up homeless with serious medical conditions?

When I did that they said they will not he paying for my schooling untill I "come back to the right path".

AITAH for refusing to give my inheritance to my mom after she disowned me for marrying my husband?

I (31M) have had a rocky relationship with my mom, Kara. Growing up, she was very set in her beliefs about same-s*x relationships and race. She would often say things like, “I don’t hate anyone, but I wouldn’t want my son living that way,” and “I raised you better than this.” Five years ago, I came out as gay and introduced her to my then-boyfriend, now-husband, Marcus (36M), who is Black. The ...

AITAH For telling the lady 2 seats behind me on a plane she was screaming the whole flight?

At the airport now. The lady 2 seats behind me on the flight was talked extremely loud the entire flight. I had earplugs in and it was piercing my ears. After the flight landed the lady across the aisle from me looked terrified and said they’re on her next flight. I got up and walked back and said, “you guys are flying to Florida next right? You may want to consider being a little more quie...

AITA for having a "scary" kitty around children?

I (m27) have a cat named stargazer. I adopted her around 3 years ago and she's truly a little survivor. She was a**sed and as a result has no eyes and only 3 three legs. Nobody wanted to adopt her because of hes deformaties and she's also a black cat so i did bc she was gonna be euthanized otherwise. My sister moved into my city this week and her and her husband (both 43) needed someone to watc...

AITAH for telling my friend its her fault that she might have to move due to financial reasons, and that this was exactly what she voted for?

I (20F) am a Canadian attending university in the United States. One of my friends (20F) in university here is a decently large Trump fan. I'm not going to lie and say it hasn't put a bit of a strain on our friendship, but it has never been anything that detrimental. Well, today we were talking about Trump's tariffs. I from the beginning made it clear it was a m**onic idea and will only end poo...

AITA for just posting "My wife miscarried" on my mom's social media after she announced my pregnancy.

My wife was pr****nt with our first child. We weren't telling anyone yet because it was early. My mom was over at our house and noticed some obvious clues of pregnancy. She asked about it and we were honest. We also asked her to please respect our wishes and not go telling people because it was early in the pregnancy and we wanted time to ourselves to absorb it. The pregnancy was unplann...

AITA for telling my mom she may no longer see my children anymore after she baptised by daughter without telling me?

Little backstory- I grew up in a very religious home. We went to church (non-denominational) 2-3 times per week. I always questioned what I was being taught and when I was in 6th grade & going to a Christian school, I realized I was agnostic. I live in the Bible belt, so it's difficult having my beliefs (or lack there of). Despite my family all being religious, they have all respected my be...
