I logged my mom's Netflix account on my dad's house (they're divorced) so that me and my brother could watch a movie. Today I went to the living room and my dad's friends were watching Netflix in my mom's profile and didn't stop even after a told them that. I called my mom and told her what was going on and she tol...
NTA. Their boredom is not your problem. You did what your mom wanted you to do. Your dad can get his own netflix account to entertain his friends. ######
I’m 19F, I have a brother who is 22M. My Dad is a really complicated guy and incredibly difficult to get along with. My Dad and my Mom have a terrible relationship, I seriously feel like they hate each other. My Dad and I don’t have a great relationship either, especially because he said a lot of hurtful things to me w...
NTA. The whole dynamic is messed up, actually. She's treating you as a friend with no part in the conflict while constantly telling you terrible things about your own father. And then, implicitly, she blames you for it, even though it was her choice to have children, not yours. You were concise and direct and handled...
Gonna keep this short. My girlfriend called me a "tan" yesterday. She said it in a really joking way, mimicking that John Mulaney line ("that's what I thought you'd say, you fucking tan"), and it quite took me aback, because I knew her friends used words like that but she had mentioned her father found it tasteless so...
NTA. The whole “is it or isn’t it racist/xenophobic?” question isn’t really the point. We could debate that all day, and —let’s be real — this sub probably will. What is relevant is that your gf continues to insult and “joke” with you even after you get expressed that it’s hurtful to you, and then when you had a serio...
My cat eats meals and only gets a certain amount of food a day. He acts like he’s starving all the time. I even brought him to the vet and the vet said he was the perfect weight and he wasn’t sick, he just likes to eat. And if he ate more he would be fat. My family thinks that the cat is not getting enough to eat. Th...
NTA. The vet said he is fine and that's what matters. Cats can be very good at begging for treats, mine will beg from anyone eating in a way that makes you think they haven't eaten in days, even when there is a bowl of cat food in the next room that they are ignoring. ######
I'll try to keep it short. I was using my boss's personal truck for a 4-month long work project. He's the President of the company. That project ended at the end of January. I got quotes before the end of the project on getting it shipped back to him because I knew he'd put it off and I'd get stuck with his truck and a...
NTA. The title made it sound like a revenge thing, but it sounds like you've repeatedly given him opportunities to arrange pick up of the truck and, when that failed, warnings that you're going to leave it at the airport. If he's not an idiot, he'll contact you in the next 48 hours. If he is an idiot, you're NTA for f...
I am a 15 year old boy with three siblings. One of them is a girl. For the longest time me and my brothers 14 and 13 had to share a room and my sister always got her own separate room. The girl is 12 years old. Now that we are moving in with our mom new husbands my mom promised me that I would finally get my own room...
Nta. The three boys should get the largest room, parents the second largest and sister the smallest. You mum is a complete ass for lying to you ######
We need social work credits to continue our studies. I used to go to an autism centre every week to help around, and everything was ok until the pandemic started. Having no way to access the usual centers, and school being online, the teacher that is in charge of the social work decided that instead of postponing some...
NTA. The teachers hearts are in the right places but you are 100% correct that not everyone can afford food for themselves, let alone someone else. Have you emailed this concern to your professors or dean? I assume so since you said there’s been radio silence. ######
Ive been rooming with my sister for 2 years now, and I’ve been having an issue since she moved in. She has a friend who smells AWFUL. Like hasn't bathed in weeks, ran through an onion field awful... who she has spend the night regularly. I cannot stress how bad this guy smells. He walks in to my house and his BO litera...
NTA. The smell of stale ass, weeks of sweat, no deodorant use, not washing sweaty clothes and sour milk just lingers and lingers. (I've been around people who have smelt that bad) and it's horrible. God I already wanna get some air freshener for your house and just spray down everything. But yeah if it's your house ...
Me and my sister (both 17, I'm her brother) made an agreement one day when my parents weren't home. I'd invite whatever friend I have that my sister thinks is the hottest, and she'd invite whatever friend of her's that I think is the hottest. Then we'd all go skiny dipping. It was mostly so we could see someone we each...
NTA. The sibling nudity thing is a bit odd, but your collective scheme is genius. ######
My sister unfortunately passed away suddenly recently and there will be a funeral soon. Unfortunately, though, because of the Rona situation, the EU commission decided to ban Americans and later most of hte world from entering the EU unless they have valid business or diplomatic reasons to be here. Mostly its some sort...
NTA. The rules about limited travel are to protect lives, it would be a terrible irony if you were to somehow spread a fatal disease in order to attend a funeral. If you are okay with not going then it is your choice. Sorry for your loss OP. ######
Some context: My and my bf are in high school and the girls he’s dated before me have straight hair, I’ve had curly hair my whole life and take after my mom, but she always straightens hers and once I got to 9th grade I used to always straighten mine too because I never really knew how to handle it. A couple months ago...
NTA. The real world is going to hit him hard when he finds out about hair dyes, lipstick, and eyeshadow. ######
Loaned niece $1000 for her wedding expenses a few years ago; my sister asked for the loan on her behalf because she was too proud/shy... but when I said yes niece thanked me profusely. Niece has never paid any of it back, but sister paid just over half of it for her until I said STOP because it's not her debt (my siste...
NTA. The principle is the important thing, but also you should let her know that. Shes an adult, and if she can get married, she can pay back loans. ######
So I'm actually torn about this one. I've been dating Mae for two years, and I'm very close to proposing. She's just amazing but blended families always suck. I have a 10 year old daughter and an 8 year old son who she really makes an effort with. My son is much more receptive then my daughter. She was more effected by...
NTA. The prank was not malicious and you simply did the same to them as they did to Mae, so if your ex wants to call it bullying then she needs to speak to the kids about how they started the bullying. Honestly, I think this teaches a better lesson than punishment would- it was harmless regardless if the kids were try...
My dad let me borrow his power washer to get my driveway and deck cleaned off. While I was in the middle of spraying my driveway, the guy across the street walked over and asked if he could use it to do his back deck/shed. I have never spoken to him or his family, he’s never even waved or acknowledged me when we’re bot...
NTA. The power washer wasn’t yours to loan so you were simply being courteous to your father by not loaning it out to your neighbour. You were perfectly polite in explaining that, it isn’t your fault that your neighbour decided to be a jerk. You’re good, OP. ######
So my younger sister (19) got engaged to her boyfriend on February 20th. This came as a shock to my whole family because they were only dating about two weeks. That event alone caused a lot of drama and my sister was very upset about the lack of support and excitement. I tried being there for her and gave her a gentle ...
NTA. The period between their engagement and yours was significantly longer than her entire pre-engagement relationship. ######
AITA for removing the tip until my things are delivered and then tipping the deliverer? So, I need a lot of things delivered to me as I can't go out due to chemo and the fact that I'm currently immunocompromised has me needing a lot of things that I pay to have delivered. What I do to get my things delivered faster is...
NTA. The only way you'd be the A is if you didn't tip at all or tipped substantially lower. Honestly I just always leave tip blank and tip in cash at the end, and have never had a shopper take too long or mess things up. I read an article yesterday that many people are doing the big tip in app thing then totally stiff...
I know the title sounds absolutely ridiculous and to be honest the situation is actually ridiculous so I’ll try my best to explain. Me, my sister and her boyfriend are currently renting a house together, we all do our part and we all equally pay the rent. The house we are renting has a fucking massive backyard. Wel...
NTA. The only person who will get enjoyment out of it? Uh. It’s your birthday. Enjoy the hell out your bouncy house! ######
Ok so I am neither the parent nor the son in this story. This happened between my father and my brother and it’s kind of split the family. It happened a few months ago but still gets brought up so I was hoping to get Reddit’s take on the situation. For the sake of making it easier to read I’ll be writing from my dad’s ...
NTA. The only animal you've ever said no to is a snake so he goes and gets one and hides it from you? That's so disrespectful. ######
I (23F) got laid off from my job as of yesterday. Without giving out too much information I was a health care recruiter living in a major city where everything has been hit pretty hard. Naturally, we expected there to be layoffs. Unfortunately out of about 35-40 people in my company I was considered apart of those la...
NTA. The move added insult to injury. Her intentions may have been innocent, but she should have thought about the ramifications of going that route and telling people you had been promoted. ######
So it was my birthday on Friday and my mom gave me £50 because she didn’t know what to get me. So I spent it on clippers, toothbrush, new joggers, vitamin tablets and pumice stones to help get rid of dead skin due to me recently taking up jogging. So when all my stuff arrived my mom went ape shit. She said “why don’t ...
NTA. The money was a gift, and you deserve to spend it however you want. And honestly, you got a lot of practical items that will help your life out. I'm sorry your mom reacted like that, but you seem to be a lot more financially responsible than her. ######
My siblings and I all have different fathers. One is older than me by 4 years and the other is an infant. I am 20. My maternal grandmother whom I have never met according to the attorneys felt bad about the way my dad denied me b/c I was a product of an extramarital affair. My fiance who comes from a heap load of mo...
NTA. The money is yours, and you don't have to give money to people just because they think they deserve it. But your fiance was right, you never should have told anyone you had it! Editing to add don't argue with anyone about this, just refuse to discuss it with them. Finances are personal. ######
I've always hated my name because it's really uncommon and my teachers and even some of my friends pronounce it incorrectly (even after several corrections). I eventually got sick of it and researched legal name changes and the procedures and decided to save up for a name change after asking my mum and dad (to which th...
NTA. The issue isn’t your name, they knew about that already so that doesn’t excuse them, the issue here is stealing your money. At the end of the day, that’s your savings and taking it for anything you’re not ok with is just wrong. ######
I (F 20) just moved in with my boyfriend due to some unstable conditions at home about a month ago. Due to Quarantine, I do my 9-6 job from home. My boyfriend (22) is unemployed and finishing his degree from home. Now when he has class, I do not bother him in the slightest. I stay quiet and respect him. I work so I can...
NTA. The issue isn't that he's playing games, it's the way he disrupts your day while playing. Can you afford to move out on your own, since you're apparently paying his rent? If there's a credible threat of you bouncing and him being stuck unable to pay the bills, maybe he'll take you seriously. ######
My nephew is staying with me for the summer. My brother is a single parent and I have the summer off work so to help my nephew is staying with me just for the convince and so the 13 year old isn't alone all summer. My nephew has his own cell phone and I thought the Dad still had it locked at night. So my surprise I ...
NTA. The internet of 2020 is a scary place for a 13 y/o to be. ESPECIALLY discord. There are many predators who use discord to prey on younger kids. It was good you banned him from discord since 1) someone older than him is contacting him and obsessively calling him and 2) you can stop anything harmful that may happen...
Yesterday my husband told me that he wasn’t feeling that great, his head hurt and his stomach was bothering him. I told him that’s fine, I’d handle the kids, he could rest. But the issue became that he chose to rest on the couch, in the living room. We don’t have a huge house. Our living room is where most of our kids’...
NTA. The identity of the actual two year-old is up for grabs here. ######
So last year I moved in to a new apartment with two friends. I was the one who provided most of the essentials such a washing machine, tv and (most importantly to the story) a small fridge that wasn't made for 3 person but that we managed to get by with. Shortly after I realized that I had a different lifestyle than on...
NTA. The guy literally sold your fridge! You gave him two months to leave and his name isn't even on the papers for the apartment, so it's perfectly reasonable. ######
I’m (22F USA) quite embarrassed of this situation and need help finding if I’m the asshole. I quit my full-time job about a week ago because I am pursuing my bachelors degree and cannot balance my homework while also working more than 40 hours a week. The financial situation this has caused makes it so I can no long...
NTA. The food bank is there for people who can't afford food, and that's you. you're not stealing from the poor. i worked full time while i put myself through college and it was not sustainable; you made the right decision to prioritize school. once you're back on your feet again you can donate to the food bank to r...
AITA For Yelling at a Trans Coworker? I (22F) have been working at a clinic with Samantha (25F) for the past few months. Recently, Samantha came out to me as a Trans woman (male to female for anyone unaware), and has been super close to me ever since. I don’t have any problems being friends with her, and can understan...
NTA. The fact that she is trans is irrelevant. She did not respect your clearly and repeatedly stated personal boundaries. ######
So I dated a YouTuber. We went out for about a year and it was alright but they were so emotionally invested in their channel that they constantly neglected me and made me feel like I wasn't a priority. Not really important why we broke up, but we broke up. Then I get a bunch of messages from friends about 3 months ...
NTA. The ex shouldn't be using a private relationship for youtube views, and deserves everything they got. ######
Still using this account to ask advice I don't want my primary account to see. I have a cousin who is a very 'pull yourself up by your bootstraps' and 'gumption' kind of guy (despite the fact his parents are well off and he currently works at my uncle's company). Well my cousin was ranting and raving on facebook abou...
NTA. The dude can delete comments on his own Facebook post. The aunt might be a bigger AH even than him; that’s absolutely ridiculous, especially given he can just delete the comment if he thinks it’s so bad. ######
Even though I live in a wealthy neighbourhood, people seem to not want to bother putting up fences for their dogs or even if they do put their dogs in the front Yard without being leashed to anything. Usually it’s not that big of a problem but, today it was. As I was walking my dog, another dog ran out of it yard and...
NTA. The dog is his responsibility. He should have been extremely apologetic for putting everyone involved in that situation. ######
Basically what it says in the title. My boyfriend made an OnlyFans a couple months ago to make a little extra money. I wasn't crazy about the idea at the time but I figured he's an adult and if he wants to get naked on the internet for money that's his prerogative. Anyway lately he's been bugging me to subscribe, and ...
NTA. The difference is that your boyfriend can't experience or give you feedback on your gigs without going to them, whereas you're already seeing and giving him feedback on everything he posts without having a subscription (which, by the way, is a way of showing support for his work). All having a subscription will d...
Title pretty much says it all. My friend was checking on my cats while I was on vacation (this was last year). Basically I was supposed to pay her $20/day for the week. Then (while I was on vacation), apparently she somehow ran over the light post in my yard. It broke in half and she tore out some of the underground e...
NTA. The damage she caused is worth more than the sum you were going to pay her. It may have been an accident, but it’s an accident you have to pay for. It’s only right that she take some responsibility. ######
So I work in a local bookstore, it’s pretty small so has been open over the past few weeks, with restrictions of course. With it being pride month, my manager wanted us to do a window display of gay authors and books with gay protagonists etc, with rainbow flags across it, and we’ve had a lot of praise. It’s a small to...
NTA. The customer ISN'T always right. You were sarcastic, sure, but not outright insulting. ######
So we had a cat appear around our house eating the food we put out for the jack rabbits and magpies. I noticed her and put a little extra out and over the course of four or five days, I realized that she was eating all the food as fast as possible. After a week, she let me get near and feed her all she could eat which ...
NTA. The cat needed the operation to survive. She has a home and a human to love her. You did good. ######
My apartment complex just repaved and repainted the parking lot. They added one more parking spot to our area for our building and by doing so, the spots are much smaller. A person who lives here and has advertisements for his $59 DUI school/drivers ed company(oh the irony), hit my fiancee's brand new Honda CRV while...
NTA. The car was damaged and needed repair. You were doing your due diligence to get it fixed. As far as being in danger, I doubt it. The guy has a business and there is now a police report with his name in it. If anything happens to you guys, the police will look at him first. If he were a criminal, he would know h...
AITA if I ask my neighbors to keep their kids from bouncing the basketball so early in the morning. They start about 6:30-7 am. I work nights as a nurse so this is the time I’m getting in bed. I’ve tried everything even earplugs,not the harming 3m ones lol, but I swear I can still hear it. Idk. Their screaming at top o...
NTA. The art is in the delivery. ######
My best friend is getting married at the end of summer and he wants to do a haka to celebrate as a part of the ceremony. I am not Polynesian, Maori, Samoan, Tongan, Australian, Kiwi, etc, etc and my friend isn’t either. We said that if we did DNA tests and if either of us turned up anything from that area, we’d do it, ...
NTA. Thats very strange. Why does that person want to do that?? They shouldn’t force you to do anything you’re not comfortable with. Edit: is your friend or his wife a Maori dancer? because that’s the only real reason from what you’ve told us that they want to do this. ######
So this actually happened when I was 16 (I’m 20M currently), but it still makes me mad and I just want to know if I was the asshole. I’m the oldest of 10 kids (I only lived with 8 of them the 9th was born after) and I have always looked after my siblings. The oldest 4 are 13+ and the youngest 6 are 8 and below. My fam...
NTA. That’s your private diary that she has no right to go through. She also sounds nasty to be reacting like that, especially to kids who aren’t even her own and has never looked after properly. ######
AITA if I ask my neighbors to keep their kids from bouncing the basketball so early in the morning. They start about 6:30-7 am. I work nights as a nurse so this is the time I’m getting in bed. I’ve tried everything even earplugs,not the harming 3m ones lol, but I swear I can still hear it. Idk. Their screaming at top o...
NTA. That’s too damn early. ######
Okay so, this might be a little weird so I’ll try and explain it. Basically, out of all of my family I am the only one who has thick curly hair. I mother swears up and down that she never cheated on my dad (although I’m pretty sure he still doesn’t believe it) And because of my curly hair, I can’t tell you the amou...
NTA. That’s petty for sure but that’s the point right? It’s similar to people groping the stomachs of pregnant women without their permission. Don’t touch people unless you want to be touched back. ######
This is a throwaway account. Also this story happened a while ago. My friend and I went to see a movie. Before that, we got some churros for $10, she said she'd pay for it and I can pay later when we buy something after the movie. I said ok. We shared the churros. After the movie, she wanted to get hot chocolate but I...
NTA. That’s not how that works at all. You bought her $10 worth of stuff as she did for you. You getting a free one has no impact on that. ######
So, my mum called me and asked me if I wanted to have some Sparkling/fizzy water from the supermarket. I’d have to go with her since her arm is injured and she isn’t strong enough to carry a sixpack. I told her I’m fine and I don’t need any. She said ok, and then came home from work in a fussy mood. I asked her if she’...
NTA. That’s like the childish shit my mother does. I suggested we clean the fridge since we’re home all day. She keeps putting it off all day then later at night I’m chilling in my room and hear her making noise in the kitchen (small apartment). I ask her from my room what she is doing, and she say nothing just cleani...
I have a gluten intolerance, which I was diagnosed with last year. I get quite sick if I eat a lot of gluten. As a result of this, I tend to buy gluten free snacks out of my own pocket, as I'm the only one in the house who has this. I tend to buy gluten free bread/pittas, crackers, cakes and pasta, enough to last me a ...
NTA. That’s just childish behavior and honestly it’s really weird. Not to be rude but honestly a lot of gf versions of foods tend to not be as good(although that might not be true for your fam) so why would they purposefully go after your food in the first place. You should get one of those fridge lockers lol ######
My ex and his wife has a Life360 group including my kids (16 and 20) and her kids. Although I pay for one of my kids' phones, they are not allowed to take Life360 off the phone. Essentially this means he can track what they're doing when they're with me (and me, by proxy). He's made comments to them in the past about...
NTA. That’s invasive as hell of your ex in a way that goes beyond “rules at your dad’s house are different” sort of way. But you need to tell your ex what you’re doing first. You’re right that he’s going to give you and the kids crap but he’s definitely going to notice if they turn it off and it’s not fair that they’r...
I recently saw a post on fb about a friend who made a face mask that said “I can’t breathe” and her caption said “I love making these they’re so much fun” AITA for wanting to say something? She gets upset if ppl try to copyright her for some stickers she does but she makes bootleg clothes and now “I can’t breathe” mask...
NTA. that’s incredibly tacky and gross, not to mention disrespectful. ######
For context, I have tritanopia colorblindness and I've been bullied for it my whole life. I recently told my friend about it and the questions started pouring in - stuff like 'what color is this', 'read this', stuff like that. I have no problem with joking around about it, but they took it too far. They kept laughing ...
NTA. That’s awful. I have a friend who won’t apologize for anything no matter how rude or insensitive he is. Those people will never take accountability. You don’t need that person in your life, they’re not your real friend. ######
I really like to crochet and knit, and it's best to have specific yarn scissors. Mine are really good and I love them, it's so satisfying to snip the yarn. Because they are made specifically for yarn, if you use them on other materials, like paper, cardboard, etc, it will damage and blunt them. Me and my two brothers ...
NTA. That’s a good way to destroy fabric scissors ######
Backstory : GF and I have been together for 3 years. We have one child aged about 1 years old. Our relationship has been rocky for the last month or so. Anyway. About 1 month ago she started snapchating (snaping?) a guy and mutual friend of ours again, nothing strange about that, i don't mind. Then they start sending...
NTA. That’s a big red flag to me. She could just say it’s for fun and all but instead of reassuring you she’s just blowing you off and making it seem like you’re the bad guy. If it bothers you and you’ve tried to bring it up and she still continues then does she really care? I say let them rekindle what they had jus...
My bf of 2 years went on a camping trip right before all the lockdowns and quarantine measures started. He went with 2 girls from his college outdoorsy club that he doesn't know very well and who I've never met. I'm not gonna lie, I wasn't super thrilled about that, but I didn't say anything cause I know that was just ...
NTA. That’s 100% not normal for camping. In fact it’s incredibly uncomfortable sleeping in one alone, just imagine two people. I honestly wouldn’t buy his story. And the fact he hid it is even more shady. I’m sorry but it sounds like he may have cheated and just got caught. ######
I (18F) got into an accident and totaled my car. Keep in mind that I bought myself that car and paid for my own insurance. The accident was my fault but not entirely. I ran a stop sign that was covered by trees and hit a parked car to avoid hitting a moving one. The house owner at the corner said that I’m the fourth pe...
NTA. That's your money. Simple as that. BUT. >I give them my money to put away because I don’t trust myself to not spend it You're an adult. Time to act like an adult. Take care of your money. ######
My friend (we'll call her Mindy) planned a bachelorette party trip that cost each of us $1200. The trip has now been canceled because of COVID, but there's a problem. My friend had this other friend (we'll call her Jane) of hers purchase the trip as a group trip on her credit card. So, Jane is getting a full refund on ...
NTA. That's worth going to court over ######
I have a trainwreck sister. She has one daughter who is 13. They live in a small house. My sister does not work and refuses to get a job. She's on welfare and I occasionally buy them groceries, She's fucked up from years and years of meth. My niece was turning into my sister 2.0 and was recently taken away and is now i...
NTA. That's what she needed to hear, even if it wasn't what she wanted to hear. ######
My girlfriend asked me if she could access my Facebook to untag me from old photos. I said no then asked why. She showed an example it was a photo from about 10 years ago with me in a club with a girl hugging me and leaning on my shoulder. It was an ex but she didn't know that. I don't take many photos so I value peopl...
NTA. That's super possessive and potentially a red flag. ######
I’m in a group chat with 8 other people. We all go to the same grad school. John said: “Hi everyone. I received a diagnosis.” He never even announced he was sick or seeing a doctor, at least to me, so I was afraid that he had cancer or something similarly serious. Another friend responded: “Oh no, is everything okay?”...
NTA. That's someone creating drama. A 2 hour pause? Good lord. ######
My (F23) and my boyfriend (M24) have been dating for four years and we currently live together. We usually have a great relationship but recently we've been at each other's throats over this. I can't tell if this is a real problem or if it's just because we're cooped up. The problem is that I eat a lot of foods my boy...
NTA. That's some controlling behavior, OP. Maybe thank this quarantine for showing his true colors and lay out the ultimatum of "let me eat whatever the fuck I want or gtfo". ######
I'm 18, living with my mom through the summer until I move away for college across the country. I offered to pay for dinner if my mom wanted to go out to eat now that my state has lifted most restrictions. I suggested we go out to eat at a local vietnamese place (because they have amazing pho and the owners are a super...
NTA. That's rude, inaccurate and uncalled for. ######
\*my wife has approved this description of events, so it is less biased\* My wife and I spend a lot of time at her Aunt and Uncle (aged 80+) cabin in Colorado. We come up to help them take care of the house and yard, and we are both pretty handy so we help fix things that inevitably break around the place. We typical...
NTA. That's ridiculous, and I would continue to push back on that request. Also, sister sounds like she sucks. ######
Okay, this is kind of of a weird one. I have been dating my girlfriend for 7 months now. I want to preface all of this by saying that I love her and that this post makes her sound worse than she is. She is one of the most genuine, sweetest, and hardworking people I have ever met. But, this whole situation has been so o...
NTA. that's not normal or cute, and is 100% reasonable boundary to have. ######
Some years ago I was driving to work when I was struck by another vehicle who... let’s say the other driver (Jackass) should not have been driving at that time. I’ll always remember him laughing his fat ass off as the ambulance pulled away. Long hospital stay, multiple surgeries, fired from my job, lots of unkind gos...
NTA. That's not how that works. They don't even actually want forgiveness. They just want you to put on a show to help them fix the damage they did to themselves. ######
Quarantine woes. I (28F) work upstairs and my husband (35M) works from our kitchen counter. Every morning he refuses to put the kettle on or help make the coffee. He says, "I don't want coffee but if you make it I'll have some." When I make it he then wants a full cup! As of late I take the entire french press with me ...
NTA. That's annoying. If he wants coffee he can contribute to making it. ######
Hi! Second time posting here. Okay so basically– I really really dislike taking photos or videos of myself, and I hate it when others do that too. It might just be an insecurity issue. I just don't feel comfortable when people do it, but even though I tell others that often, I still get dragged in for photos very now ...
NTA. That's an invasion of privacy and depending on where you are, illegal. And she's doing it for her benefit, not yours. ######
We have been married for 4 years, with two kids ages 3 and under 1. I’ve been a stay at home mom by day, uni student by night and my husband was working full time but was furloughed back in March. Ever since having kids, and if I’m honest even before that, most of the housework has fallen on me. I’ve been saying things...
NTA. That's a great solution. It's in fact already proving your point: He said it was "adding more work". Well apparently only to him, because this is stuff you already do. ######
A little backstory: I (15) was very close with my great grandmother, Gram Joe. We were both avid gardeners and artists, and she taught me everything I know about painting. Gram Joe had blood cancer, and was running a bit slow in her last few months. My brother (11), on the other hand, never went to visit her. He would...
NTA. that was your stuff that your grandma gave to you! dose your brother even like to paint? sorry for your loose. ######
This week restrictions lifted in my area for the virus and my sister’s boyfriend visited my family for the first time for dinner. He knew who I was, but apparently my sister never mentioned that I’m disabled. When I meet new people, I’m fine with certain questions. I pretty much expect it. But the first thing that exit...
NTA. That was rude, and you are not required to suffer fools. More “considerate” to remove yourself than to start a fight. ######
I am 14 and my stepbrother is 12. Me and my stepbrother wanted some dinner and my stepmom and dad were both at work (doctors) and they told us they had made us dinner before they left. They make us eat boring food that we don’t even like and half the time it doesn’t even fill us up. It’s either salad with low fat dre...
NTA. That was really cool of you to take care of and feed your brother. There are so many delicious foods out there besides fish, salad, sweet potatoes. This is a good opportunity for you to learn about nutrition and cooking. Are you able to get involved and help with the meals a bit more and experiment in the kitchen...
I (19m) ordered a gift for my mom online a couple days ago. Knowing she loves this brand Rituals (a shower gel and beauty kind of thing), i got her a gift box with multiple items in it. Now the website i ordered this on had this gift box listed under "mother's day gift ideas". Without any second thoughts i ordered it t...
NTA. That was mean. I'm sure you were embarrassed enough already, and publicly humiliating you was uncalled for. You probably should have given a gift for your mother a "second thought," but it was nice of you to remember what brand she likes. ######
Throw away account. Okay so I’m at a crossroad atm. A friend and I moved in together last year, but now we’re going to separate apartments. We got along really well, and moved out due to the fact that she got a boyfriend and wanted to move in with him. Anyways, when it came to the security deposit, I offered to help ...
NTA. That was an unpleasant bait and switch on her part and sounds like a way for her to get paid to clean her own apartment. ######
I know this sounds bad. I feel bad about it but I don't think I should pay them more. Here's why: - I was never on the lease - I didn't pay any bond - I was sub renting - I gave them 10 workdays notice, then paid for another 2,5 weeks to make it a month. - I communicated everything with them that they need to fin...
NTA. That was a risk they assumed when they let you sublet and not sign a lease. You even paid for 2 extra weeks and helped them find prospects. Their pickiness is what ultimately led them to being stuck in their current predicament. They should have found someone short term until they could find someone for the lon...
Obligatory backstory: my parents are divorced, me and my brother are respectively 21 and 24. My mom remarried a guy with only adult children (like in their 30s), and my dad is about to marry a woman with many children between the ages of 5-15. I'm getting married in the fall, so I'm in the process of packing up my chi...
NTA. That is your stuff. Other people don’t get to inherit it by default. Take it with you. ######
Hey There. My parents are divorced and my bio-dad died soon after. It all happend when I was around 3 so i never knew him. My mom remarried a year after their divorce so I grew up with him as my father. My bio-father was an onlychild from my grandparents with who I had no coontact with due to my mother not wanting ...
NTA. That is your inheritance and it's up to you what you want to do with it. Word of advice, get in touch with a lawyer to cover your bases. Never know when your own family can turn out to be petty enough to take you to court over inheritance. ######
So me and my fiancé are doing some work in our backyard, so for the past week or so I’ve had to take our dogs for walks through the neighborhood about 4 times a day, always walking past the same house right across the street from us. The first few times, i noticed a dog barking when i walked by, but didn’t think much ...
NTA. That is unsafe. ######
Aita for insisting on using my sister's internet for one hour for a big job interview? Backstory: she had already said yes and it was planned and everything, now she just texted me that her boyfriend is going to be home unexpectedly so I basically need to find somewhere else. Her boyfriend and I have never had an argum...
NTA. That is scary, and I am worried for your sister. She can't have guests because he's possessive. Yikes! That is not a healthy relationship. ######
Okay so I am a behavioral therapist for autistic kids. And with COVID and everything going on, sessions have been moved around but haven’t stopped. I have this one kid who we will call John. John is 8 years old and very aggressive. My job with John is to help him understand simple things better like time, patience, soc...
NTA. That is my personal opinion, you care for others and I can see how a determination to do better coming from an autistic kid is iffy ( I say this in a nice way I hope that isn’t misconstrued). You will win some and you lose some. I feel you have to find the people worth your time and help them as best you can. Thi...
I am one of three siblings. None of us are particularly well off. My parents (early 60s) are reasonably comfortable middle-class. All three siblings have kids. My parents have spent thousands on my two sisters to help them make ends meet for most of their adult lives. I have accepted help from my parents on occasion, b...
Nta. That is going to cause a lot of problems down the line if there is no will ######
Right. So I have spina bifida and use a wheelchair. My sister recently broke her leg and she’s continuously complained about how much crutches hurt. My dad’s solution to this was to tell my sister she can use my wheelchair. I’m not comfortable with this. My dads reasoning is that I just got out of the hospital and am m...
NTA. That is bordering on abuse that your father is using the fact that he adopted you as a way to justify taking away your wheelchair. You wouldn’t tie someone’s arm behind their back to punish them. You need to get your wheelchair back. That’s so outrageous it kinda makes me mad. ######
So around 4-5 days ago, my (16M) mum got in a nasty argument with my older brother (17M) and as a result, demanded that all of our phones (mine, my younger sister's, 17M and my other older brother's) be confiscated and have the PINs replaced. (NOTE: She also wanted our fingerprints to be removed as well.) Although I ...
NTA. That is an absolutely ludicrous state of affairs. It is a huge imposition to require her to use your phone and a breech of privacy to boot. Just having bought something for someone doesn't entitle you to whatever you want. There's a difference between letting someone use something you own, and giving them somethi...
So, just a little backstory. Throughout my entire childhood, my parents have always forced their way into knowing all my secrets. Whenever I refused at first, they would start taking away things I had like my book or playstation. Whenever I asked why their excuse was always, "Because I'm the parent and I say so." Becau...
NTA. That is a very unhealthy way to raise a child. Everyone has the right to privacy. It's literally the same as if your parents watched you every time you took a shower, took a shit, or slept. Parents have control over what their child does and how they behave at home (to a certain point), but they have absolutely n...
This happened last year and I only just found this subreddit. Also first ever post so go easy on me. Last year one of my colleagues got diagnosed with testicular cancer and needed to go through chemo. Chemotherapy makes all of your hair fall out in clumps and eventually you wind up bald. Some of my colleagues, both...
Nta. That guy had more shit to worry about than who shaved their head to support him. What is that even doing? I get if my sister felt shit because she had to shave her head because of chemo... I would probably do it then to make her feel better. But shaving your head because someone has cancer is about as affective a...
So a little bit of context; I (14M) live in NYC and have 2 siblings: my sister (23F) and my brother (8M). We live in a brownstone where my parents have the biggest bedroom, I have the second largest, my brother has the third largest, and the other 2 bedrooms function as guest bedrooms. My sister lives in a college do...
NTA. That doesnt make sense for you to move all your stuff now then again when she leaves. ######
I'm(19f) in college and due to some circumstances I got a decent amount of money. My sister(23f) is out of college and living on her own now. She is extremely bothered that I have money. But when she asked for a small amount I gave it to her without another thought even though she still owed me money from a different t...
NTA. That comeback was great! Seriously, unless you did something illegal/ immoral to get said money, I don't get why she's mad at your good fortune. I may be a pretty big asshole, but I would never be mad at my younger sibling for their success/ good fortune, that's just cold. ######
Today when my sister in law came over (she's also our neighbour) her 10 year old son also came along and instantly started tellimg me about his tik tok account which has many followers.Initially, I was happy for him but then he asked me if he could download tik tok on my phone, so that i can like his videos...
NTA. That child sounds like a monster. ######
I have lived with my roommate for about a year now. We’re both women. We get along fairly well, but have a recurring issue with her eating my food. I recently went grocery shopping. I asked her if she wanted me to pick her up anything, and she said no. Now because we have had issues with her eating my food in the pa...
NTA. Thanks, i got a chuckle out of this one. You caught her in the act whilst she was stealing your property, maybe now she’ll take the hint. ######
My friend (22) was upset his girlfriend (20, still in college) cheated on him with his best friend and broke up with him right before he was going to break up with her. He showed me his cellphone with about 30 pictures of his now exgf topless and doing other things, mainly oral. He looks at me and laughs, “I’m gonna m...
NTA. Thank you for doing that ######
Ok so my son never had a girlfriend, never had a crush on one. By the age of 16 he still hadn't got a girlfriend even tho he was a handsome guy. I talked to my wife about what her reaction would be if he turned out gay, she said that he will be dead to her if he is. come next year and our son turns out gay. I comfort h...
Nta. Tell your homophobic wife to move back to the 1800s bc thats where her ignorant ideas belong ######
Sorry guys about the poor grammar and format. I'm just shaken up and I really need to vent. (I am Asian and my bf's family is black) I have been living at my boyfriends house since quarantine and instead of cleaning or watching TV together we decided to play UNO. I placed a +4 card and he had to add four additional c...
NTA. Tell your boyfriend you'll apologize for her mishearing you when she apologizes for actually being racist. Or skip that and just break up with him. He clearly doesn't respect you if he'll let his mother be so blatantly racist. ######
My sister is pregnant, and she lives with us. She’s 19. My parents have made me her personal care taker. Anything she needs it’s my responsibility to get no matter what. 1 am and she wants ice cream? Guess who’s driving to the store. And that actually happened. It was before quarantine so going to the store for her doe...
NTA. Tell them they both can fuck off for me too alright? ######
So I live in a small flat with just one other roommate (female). Three months ago, she started dating this new guy and recently he's been staying over just about every night and staying through the day as well (sometimes even while my roommate is at work). He works ridiculous hours and often finishes work past midnight...
NTA. Tell roomie that you're splitting the rent and bills three ways until you can get the boy on the lease on make everything official. ######
I have 3 kids, one is 7, the other is 9 and the oldest is 17, for mothers day my wife wanted me to make breakfast for the family. So I made waffles for everyone, my wife doesn't eat a lot so she got 1, and the younger ones get 1 as well. My older one is a pretty big guy for a 17yo he is 6'3 and 205 right now, Its a n...
NTA. Tell him to finish the one he's got and then you'll talk about seconds. Why let the kid waste food, in addition to thinking he gets his way if he just pitches a fit? ######
Ok so this happened years ago and apparently I am still dark on the subject so good people of Reddit let me know AITA? I lived in a share house where all flat mates paid equal rent. One flat mate used the garage on the property to store his motorcycle (the rest of us had cars so parked on the road or in the driveway)....
NTA. Tell him he needs to learn how to not even drive an automobile, but literally back one up. He offered to do it anyway, it was his choice. ######
Some context: My and my bf are in high school and the girls he’s dated before me have straight hair, I’ve had curly hair my whole life and take after my mom, but she always straightens hers and once I got to 9th grade I used to always straighten mine too because I never really knew how to handle it. A couple months ago...
NTA. Tell him he decieved you by not telling you he was an idiot. ######
Today is my (24) birthday, I just got done with work and was watching tv when my girlfriend of 4 years came in the room to tell me she made my favorite kind of pie. She then asked me if I would rather kiss her for $100 dollars or kiss the hottest girl I know for $700. Not thinking much about it I said I would kiss her ...
NTA. Tell her to spend less time on tiktok ######
My sister is getting married a year from now and is going crazy on her wedding plans. She knows I'm only working part-time while going through cancer treatment and am struggling financially. She's picked out $400 designer bridesmaids dresses for us plus alterations, shoes, jewelry, etc. and wants us to buy them right...
NTA. Tell her that if she pays, you will wear anything she chooses. If you are paying, then you decide the amount to spend. ######
We broke up recently, it was a toxic breakup, we lived together for two years... Well she jumped ship and moved in with her mom to a different state. She sends me a list of all the stuff she wants me to ship her, we are talking hundreds of pounds worth of stuff, including 3 guitars and a mountain bike. None of these th...
NTA. Tell her she needs to pay a company to box the stuff appropriately & pick them up. Moving companies will do this or even the UPS store will package stuff (it costs more but that’s her problem not yours). I wouldn’t ship the stuff yourself. You don’t want her to hold you responsible if things break in transit. #...
For some context, my girlfriend and I have recently had a son, yay!! But every time my mom sees him she acts like he is her boy. This has been going on every time that she talks about him since he was born on March 21st. So, would I be the asshole for telling her that my son is not specifically her gradbaby, and is my ...
NTA. Tell her now and make it clear or you'll be dealing with entitled grandma crap for years. ######
This happened today and I feel like it was justified. So I’m standing in line at the supermarket, and this bigger guy is behind me. There’s a really long line, and I was up next to put the groceries down after about 10 minutes of waiting. The entire time I’m waiting, I hear him complaining about how long the line is an...
NTA. Technically what you said was shitty but honestly, he had it coming. If he can't contain his annoyance for a couple minutes then neither should you. Him complaining about the line being too long probably made the cashier anxious about their work performance even though it wasn't their fault. Keep on being awesome...
First post, bear with me. I don't know if I'd classify my dad as a full-on Karen, but he definitely toes the line. The classic leave-the-mess-because-it's-their-job, ask-for-the-manager-if-the-food-is-late type. What really annoys me is that he never says please or thank you. I know it's not a big deal per se, but I ...
NTA. Teaching your dad to what I believe are good manners is a good thing and that he should treat them as people and not just workers. ######
So my girlfriend and I can’t see each other in person so we’ve been doing video chats during dinner and stuff like that. We have a words with friends game going and also she’ll sometimes play me at chess online. The thing is with chess is she’s one of those chess nuts who spends a ton of time practicing and reading mov...
NTA. Teach her a lesson by getting one of those chess games for the pc. When she asks you to play her on the phone, set the pc to grand Master difficulty, and input her moves on the phone as yours on the pc. Use the grand Master moves as yours on the phone. When she gets crushed, treat her like she did to you. "aw is...
I (18F) have been friends with this girl (18F) for a couple of years. She’s always had problems at home and has a lot of trauma from it. I’ve always helped her and stood by her. Last year she started doing a lot of weird things without telling anyone but me. Things that could put her in serious danger, like wanting to ...
NTA. Take care of yourself first. ######
I was in a video call with people from school there was 34 of us. I was wearing my hair in two braids it’s a traditional hairstyle from my tribe (I’m Native American) a couple of the African kids started say I was appropriating black culture by having braids. I tried to explain to them why I had it like that it’s part ...
NTA. Swedish women wear their hair in braids, too. Statues of ancient women "Venuses" show hair in braids. Braids are not the cultural property of any one group. The *style* of braid, however, might be strongly connected with a group or culture. I suggest you report that incident to a trusted teacher. I don't know ...
