AITA for telling my husband he is either married to me or his co-worker?

My (37f) husband (40m) has been working at his company for 10 years as a maintenance supervisor. About a year ago they hired Tabitha* to work in their accounting department. Since the day she first started working there, she has had an infatuation with my husband that is now becoming unprofessional and inappropriate. This started when the heat went out in her office. My husband's job as supervi...

Woman Forced To Defend Herself Against Husband's Family Over Refusal To Sign Prenup, Sparking His Anger Due To Feelings Of Emasculation

My fiance and I have been together for about 6 years, engaged for 2. After we got engaged, we sat down and had the "deal breakers" talk. Basically things in our lives, our futures, hypothetical situations that leave little room for compromise (ie adopting children, finances, family boundaries, religion etc). One of the things on my list was no pre-nup. I'm not here to debate with anyone about t...

Husband Sparks Family Drama By Telling Wife It's Not 'Cute' To Encourage Teenage Daughter To Expect Her BF To Pay For Everything

Wife and I have been married 18 years, we have our 16 year old daughter who has been dating a slightly shy/ awkward young man for around 3-4 months now. He seems very nervous around my daughter and has admitted in a pa*sing comment here and there to my wife and I that he can’t believe she agreed to date him and he thinks she’s way out of his league. He seems very respectful, just shy. My...

AITA for refusing to share details about my finances with my girlfriend (22F) and her parents?

I (23M) just got out of the Marine Corps and moved back in with my parents to go to school full-time using the GI Bill. My tuition, books, and living stipend are covered, and I’m also serving in the reserves. I’ve always been disciplined with money — I save aggressively, invest, and live way below my means even though I have hobbies like riding my motorcycle and gaming. I’m good with money, an...

AITA for not letting my wife have mothers day after she "canceled" fathers day?

I've been married to my wife for almost 7 years now and we have 2 children, one 6 and the other 4. I love her but she is a bit strange sometimes. She is very heavy anti-corporation/government. One of her big beliefs though is with holidays. She still celebrates holidays with the family (Christmas, Easter, etc) but likes to keep them minimalist and not embrace the "Money" side of things. We...

AITA for using the word "miscarry" to beat my wife in scrabble?

For context, my wife and I have always been extremely compet*tive. It's an important part of our relationship, and she has gotten p**sed at me in the past when she perceives I have thrown a game intentionally to spare her the sadness of losing. Tonight as we were playing Scrabble, I had the option to play the word "miscarry" to win the game. From what I could tell, there were no other words I c...

AITA for telling my mom she can't share a room or a bed with her boyfriend in my home?

When I (27f) was in college I met my boyfriend and we moved in together, sharing a place with some friends, after dating for a year. I was 19 when we met and 20 when we moved in together. We decided from that point onward to take turns spending Christmas with our families. But the first year we were supposed to see mine, my mom made it clear my boyfriend could not stay and and we weren't shari...

AITAH for telling my wife that my life would be better without her?

My wife (Anne) and I have been married for 13 years. I am 43, and she is 46. We do not have children. When we first began dating, nobody could make me happy like Anne. She always seemed to know exactly the right thing to say to me when I was down. But over the past decade or so, she has really started to show her true colors, and a lot of what her ex husband said to me about her has begun to ma...

AITA for being "too close" to my Ex-Husband?

Six years ago, I got divorced from my now ex-husband. There was no drama that led to this; we simply realized we were no longer happy or in love, so it would have been a clean break if not for the fact we had a daughter who is now 11. Neither of us wanted to lose full custody of her or miss important moments in her life. She is the most important person in both our lives, and we debated on tryi...

AITA for asking my husband to check on me while playing video games?

My husband is an avid computer gamer - mostly WoW-type games. Approximately five nights of the week, he'll play games online from the time that our son goes to bed at 8:00 or 8:30 to about 12:30, so at least four continuous hours. That in itself is not at all an issue for our relationship. He spends plenty of time with me and our son, and I have my own hobbies that he isn't interested in that ...
