AITA for leaving home after my partner let his son invite 5 friends for a sleepover when I'm recovering from major surgery, without discussing it with me first?

I (44F) had major surgery last week. I am home recovering and off work for 2 weeks, with 4-6 weeks recommended before resuming life relatively 'normally'. My partner (42M) informed me late yesterday afternoon that his son (13M) was having 5 friends for a sleepover tonight. It's now Sat**day where I live. I had no prior knowledge that he'd allowed his son to organise this and it's for no special...

I (33F) have 4 kids with my husband (35M), and our kids are all 4 or under so it's a handful (4F, 3F, 3F, and 1M). A few nights ago after I had been taking care of the kids all day just like usual, dinner just ended and the kids were all settled down for the first time that day so I asked my husband if he could just watch over them while I go shower because truth be told, it had been around 2 days...

UPDATE - AITAH for telling my girlfriend I can’t trust her anymore when it comes to her wanting a baby?

Firstly, for some context, we have a planned parenthood that specializes in abortions like 5 minutes away. I understand people thinking she didn’t want to get an abortion because of protesters. I completely understand. I drive by that specific place every single day for work. I have seen no protesters. It’s usually empty besides a few cars on the side of the side of the road. But, I still ...

Final update: Aita for exposing my wife's cheating and not wanting to do anything with a child that isn't mine

It has been a difficult few months. I considered running away from everything, even abandoning my son, although I know he is not biologically mine. However, I did not want him to suffer. Since then, I have visited him frequently. I moved out but continued visiting him, while my wife tried hard to make me stay. Her sister also caused significant trouble, but I tolerated it all for my son. Th...

I had them delivered to my sister’s place of emp...

AITA for telling my son he can't stay with me when I found out why his wife kicked him out.

So my a*shole son decided that he should cheat. She found out and kicked him out of the house. He came to stay with us because "she was having crazy pregnancy hormones". Every time he called her they would fight. After a couple of days...

I adore my wife but I absolutely hate her family. Her mom is a knowitall, her sisters are b**chy snobs, their kids are spoiled brats, and her dad has given up. Somehow my wife got all the good genes and is sweet and caring. Yesterday, my wife surprised me with a romantic setup and told me we were going on a three-week vacation to a secluded cabin for hiking, which I love. Shortly after, she re...

AITA for kicking my husband out of the hospital after he refused to drive me and my daughter there?

I have a 14-year-old daughter. Her biological father pa*sed away when she was four, and her uncle served as her father figure for the next six years until he also pa*sed away from cancer. Due to these losses, she struggles with abandonment and trust issues, opening up only to very close individuals. When she met my husband, she was polite but did not immediately accept him as a father figur...
