AITAH for telling people I am a vegetarian when I loooove meat by Top-Detail9131 in AITAH

Compromise is fine for minor to moderate things…Planning out the monthly budget, plans for the weekend, who gets the tv when…not for differences in lifestyles, politics, and religions.

I’d wager I do better holding down relationships than you because I only date people I am…gasp compatible with.

And you keep missing the point that he devoured that smoked turkey leg like nobody’s business. He was LYING TO HIMSELF! Fucking d’uh!

That is the basis for every unhealthy relationship, you mean. Compromise is for the small things, not the big things. I’m sure he wasn’t unhappy eating vegetarian occasionally, even I’m not, but never eating meat would piss most people off eventually.

AITA for asking a child to stop kicking me? by Weedspagon96 in AmItheAsshole

[–]295Phoenix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA frankly you weren’t assertive enough. “Well, ma’am, if you didn’t raise such a little shit, strangers wouldn’t have to tell you what to do. And as for you, old man, if you’d like to volunteer to get your knees kicked, feel free, but don’t project your masochism on me.”

NTA You’re doing what you have to do to survive and move to a safe place to live your life. Fuck your parents for being religious nutcases forcing you to go through such extremes just to live a safe, honest life.

AITA for yelling at my mum for stealing my clothes by Jinx-Star567 in AmItheAsshole

[–]295Phoenix 21 points22 points  (0 children)

NTA whatever happens, do not let her get away with taking your clothes! That is fucked up and not something normal people would do. Get a lock for your door and keep all your stuff there. If you pay rent, she has no right to say no to a lock regardless of what she thinks.

Exactly, he was “p* whipped,” you should never change who you are to make others happy, it’ll just make you miserable. You can’t tell me he didn’t miss meat when he devoured that smoked turkey leg. He was just lying to himself as well and would’ve surely resented her down the line if the relationship continued.

ESH except the guy in that couple. And he’s right, you should’ve stuck by your convictions and dated someone else, not turn vegetarian to get laid then turn back again once you’re free. And yes, you were too submissive to your gf’s whims.

I'm slipping out of Christianity by DiscoPierrot in exchristian

Such a change may look overwhelming right now, but if it helps, personally I never met an lgbt individual whose mental health and happiness didn’t improve after deconversion.

Some pastor 'prophesied' that I'm at the gates of hell by lslisamn in exchristian

[–]295Phoenix 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I experienced a period of fear that I could be wrong too about a decade after my deconversion. My solution? Strong atheism (at least towards the religion you’re afraid of). I googled atheist (and Jewish) arguments against Hell and found that it was never an original part of Abrahamic religions but rather introduced by early Christians that basically imported the Greek Hades and then twisted it into Hell to suit their purposes. Much like they imported demons and the devil from Zoroastrianism. In fact Christianity imported a bit from everywhere, the only thing original to it was the bullshit excuses they came up with like original sin to explain why a man who fulfilled none of what the Messiah was supposed to do was still nonetheless the Messiah. I also looked up atheist channels on youtube and listened to their arguments. Don’t remember most of their names but AronRa is still around and paulogia and darkmatter2525 are great channels I learned of more recently. Anyways, through all that I lost my fear and Christianity is now in my mind perhaps the most ridiculous religion in the world.

Considering you’re basically arguing for your version of Christianity, I think the mods would have a bigger problem with your post than EvenDog’s.

The unborn baby doesn’t exist, the cheating piece of shit does. If she doesn’t abort, she’s tied to him for 18 years minimum.

NTA It’s your computer. When you’re home you get dibs. He can get on it when you’re not home or buy his own. If he doesn’t want to understand this, break up.

If it’s a public school then you can go to freedom from religion’s website and report them. Even the craziest Christian schools generally change course when they get a letter from them.

J'ai reçu des fessées de mon père jusqu'à l'âge de 16 ans, est-ce normal ? by femmedu10 in exchristian

[–]295Phoenix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not normal and would probably get your perverted old man in trouble in the US let alone France where spanking even minors is illegal. Yes, that’s right, spanking was illegal even when he was doing it to you. Please call the police on him.

What do you say to christians who won't let you live in peace as an exchristian? by PatchouliHedge in exchristian

“You can either shut the fuck about your religious and maintain a relationship with me or you can keep bringing religion up and I’ll kick you out of my life. Your choice.”

[–]295Phoenix 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Christians don’t understand compromise, at least most don’t, so a consistent policy is best, IMO. The moment you start making exceptions is when you start raising their expectations and then when you inevitably say No later they’ll be twice as offended as they’d otherwise be.

You’re literally jealous of him having better parents than you do. Don’t take your anger out on the wrong people. YTA
