My girlfriend called my orphaned teenage brother a freeloader and demanded I kick him out

AITA for telling my wife that I'm ending our marriage because I found her brother at our house ( again) and said it in front of him?

I (M38) left my wife (Kelly F38) today. 5 years together. 4 married. I have battled her lack of boundaries about her family for the past 2 years. I understand that they are very close knit, but she never paid attention to how their dynamics affected our relationship. I experienced every “justnofamily” situation. My food was eaten, showing up uninvited, meddling, you name it. Nine months ago, M...

I told him it was normal to want to feel clean or tidy and that body gr****ng is a personal choice. I made sure he wasn’t feeling pressured by anyone and reminded him hygiene and safety come first. He asked if I could hel...

So I've been dating this guy (27M) for two years now. Dude is like *anti-corporate to the extreme*. He’s constantly going off about how capitalism is t**sh, anyone working a “normal” job is brainwashed, blah blah blah. Meanwhile, I’m (25F) actually doing pretty well at my office job. I mean, it’s not my “life’s pa*sion” or anything, but it’s solid, I’m decent at it, and hey, it pays the bills....
