AITAH for dropping our baby off on my ex husband and demanding he take the baby every other week even though he wants to be an every other weekend dad

This is so messy. My ex husband 29m, and I 28f, originally agreed not to have any children. We live in Texas and this world just isn’t a place I wanted to bring a child into. I also never wanted to be a mother. My IUD failed and I got pr****nt. I was devastated because I wouldn’t be able to get an abortion since we live in Texas. I wanted to travel out of state to get an abortion, and I wanted...

My wife is sad because I got my sister a much more “romantic” Christmas gift than I got her. AITAH?

Last night, my family hosted the gift party. We invited siblings, parents, and grandparents. The party was going great, and everyone was genuinely happy when they opened their gifts. My wife had a Christmas list, and I got my wife all the items from the Christmas list. My sister opened her gift last, and after looking at the gift for a minute, she broke down in tears and hugged me. For cont...

AITA for being furious after my boyfriend (M30) said he would "get custody" of my daughter (F6)?

I (F28) have a 6-year-old daughter from a previous relationship. I’ve been with my boyfriend (M30) for about a year now, and while he’s been great with my daughter, things took a weird turn recently. We were having a conversation about future plans, and out of nowhere, he said, “If we ever break up, I’ll get custody of your daughter.” I laughed at first, thinking he was joking, but then I saw t...

Wife got me the gift I said I didnt want

So I had a birthday two months ago. Wife asked for ideas for presents, so I gave her several. Later on she asked if I would like a coffee maker, and I said no. I drink instant coffee. I told her I had a coffee maker in the past (Keurig) that routinely broke down, that I constantly had to fix. It became a ch**e. Also, my MIL has given me a yeti for Christmas for the past 5 years. I never us...

AITAH for threatening to divorce my husband over MrBeast?

I (f24) am seriously at my wits end. My husband (m26) is partially deaf from DJing in his teens/early 20s, so he needs things louder to hear them. But what I dont get is why that has to mean I’m involuntarily listening to MrBeast yelling about burying himself alive or giving away $10k to strangers at 9am on a Sunday. He watches MrBeast videos on his phone at like 95-100% volume. Not even joking...

AITAH for how I responded when my girlfriend brought up the house purchase in front of her family?

I (M30) have been with my girlfriend Lily (F28) not her real name for just over two years. She’s more reserved and doesn’t express her feelings easily. Right now, I’m the one working and covering most of our expenses. We get along well, but she can be frustrating sometimes. For example, she won’t do ch**es because she’s afraid she’ll do them wrong but still finds time to clean up her own things...

Update: I cut my wife off from our finances because she wouldn’t stop ordering takeout

Nine days ago, I made a post about how my unemployed wife had spent $1,176 on delivery apps in just a month. This is egregiously outside of what we can afford to spend on takeout, and since she didn’t seem willing to stop, I canceled our credit card and moved the money from our joint account into my own. For the following few days, my wife kept talking about how I was financially abusing her. S...

AITAH for vetoing my wife's car purchase in the dealership and walking her out of there without looking at the car she picked out?

So my 29M wife 27F is a SAHM mom by her choice until the kids are old enough to go to school. Her older Honda SUV recently bit the dust when it needed some major repairs that totaled more than the value of her car. This was right at the beginning of the work week for me so I unfortunately didn't have the time to sit with her and look at at cars immediately. I told her she can do some research ...

AITA for leaving my boyfriend at the bar after he told the waitress I was his “sister” as a joke?

Okay, so this happened last weekend and I'm still getting heat from my friends and even my mom for how I handled it. I (21F) have been dating (27M) for about 8 months. Things have been mostly great, he's cute, charming, a little c**ky sometimes, but whatever. He has this habit of “joking” about not being serious with me when we’re around other people. At a party once, he introduced me as “a fri...

She has a bachelor's degree in education and wants to become a teacher, but realistically, her salary would be around $50,000 a year. She is currently looking for a job. I work in finan...

AITA for re reminding my brother’s girlfriend that I own half of the house we live in so she can’t easily get rid of me?

I’m 15F and have been living with my big brother (25) for the last 3 years. Our dad d*ed 3 years ago and our mum abandoned us 7 years ago and is living abroad in Japan with her new family. I’m very independent and don’t need a lot of attention and generally mind my own business. So I’m not a nuisance or a third wheel, I just need to be left alone. The house we live in belonged to our dad and...

AITA for yelling at my wife after she told her family about our new financial situation?

Recently found out I will be inheriting some properties and a significant amount of money. I told my wife, but made it clear that this is only between us and she's not to tell anyone, especially her big mouth sister. I don't want anyone to know about the inheritance, invest almost all of the money, hire a property management company, and intend to keep our current lifestyle. Last night at dinn...
