AITA for telling my wife it would be controlling and inappropriate for her to try and change how my family does Christmas?

My wife and I rotate who we spend Christmas with, so one year her family and one year my family. I don't love doing it with her family, and she isn't a big fan of my mother. Our families are pretty different. Her family is much more about the kids. Even the dinner is tailored more to what kids like, the kids each get 1000 gifts and spend Christmas running around my MIL house, making a huge ruck...

AITA for not using my husbands "hilarious" gift?

H (29m) and I (26f) have been married for 4 years. I had a great job in sales before covid, but we found during the pandemic that things just worked better with H at work and me at home (he earns enough to support us both). I never thought I'd end up being a "traditional" wife, but given that he's the breadwinner, I sometimes feel as though i should pick up a lot of the slack at home. I'm not a...

AITA for telling my husband I won't cook for him again if he chose to eat his coworker's meal over mine.

My husband (Jesse, 31) has been bringing home meals that his female coworker (Nelly) cook for him. Now I'm not the best cook and Jesse's made it clear but he still eats what I cook everyday. What I noticed with Nelly was that she tends to take every opportunity to point out how weak and taseless my cooking is. Jesse would say nothing except steer the conversation towards som**hing else they bot...

AITA for going off on my husband and his mom for taking/keeping my used pregnancy test?

I (f27) found out I was pr****nt very recently. My husband (m34) and his family are beyond happy and excited. From what I heard my husband was married 2 times before but couldn't have kids for 10 years. This is obviously a huge deal for his family because his mom will be a first time grandma with this baby. They threw a celebration dinner for us and as his mom and I were talking about the b...

AITA for telling my girlfriend that yes, the gym is more important to me than her and her daughter?

I (32m) have been dating my girlfriend (29f) for about 18 months. She has the cutest little 4-year-old daughter from a previous relationship. As our relationship has progressed I've been spending more and more time at my girlfriend's place, to the point that I've all but moved in with them. This is mostly just because it's logistically easier for me to go to her place since she has a kid and I ...

AITA for refusing to help with housework because it's my wife's job?

For context, my wife (25F) and I (27M) have been married for 3 years. We have a 2 year old daughter and live in a 2 bedroom apartment, which isn't very big. Outside of this argument we have a solid relationship and I love her very much. Ever since our daughter was born my wife has decided to be a stay at home mom until she starts kindergarten. While surviving without her paycheck is very diffic...

AITAH for telling my wife to stop crying about missing out on our daughter’s wedding?

As the t*tle says. My wife (53f) and I (55m) have three children. Brett (27m) Amy (25f) and Lynn (24f). Now let me say, I love all my children in their own way. But no child has ever given me a headache like Lynn. She’s our wild child. Got a college degree at 16, began working and saving up, moved to Louisiana once she turned 18, got more college degrees and lives a pretty nice life. I’m proud...

AITA for expecting my husband to pay for the tools my daughter used for the handmade necklace he threw out.

My husband and I have disagreements from time to time. Nothing major just normal stuff. He has a habit of throwing out som**hing of mine as a way to "teach me a lesson" whenever he's upset with me after an argument. This time he threw out the handmade necklace my daughter (13) made for me herself on mother's day. The argument was about him wanting to hang out with his budd*es on the day of ...

My husband Jared and I have been married for 3 years. He's currently out of work (used to work at a high paying job but got kicked out the company over a fight with a co worker) and I'm the one paying for rent and utilities. We dedicate some time to see his family weekly. They don't know he's unemployed because he thought they'll see him as a failure especially his mom so he told me to keep it ...
