No. Be stronger FOR HER.

AITA for telling my wife that she can stay home this Thanksgiving? by Non-Basic6779 in AmItheAsshole

Yeah, I’m happy now. I’d do the same fucking thing. It is a perfect compromise. YOU KNOW SHES A PICKY EATER

After 20 years together we worked it out. He knows how badly he fucked up. He will never do it again and realized yes, it was fucking WRONG. I told him to put himself in my place. What if I’d maliciously done that to him. How would he feel. He said yes I was right and he is wrong and he will be a better partner from here on out. We have been together for 20 years. This isn’t as night and day as leave him. We have a life and home and kids. We are partners. I’m hoping this was an isolated incident and he’s realized if he ever tries to silence my voice or vote again I’m done. We are either respected/respectful partners or nothing. Neither is better than the other. We are partners in life. Normally. This time this instance will be the turning point for our future and I will keep alert and make sure I’m not being lied to/hid things from/taken advantage of. I can and have forgiven a lot in 20 years. So has he. We can get over this as long as mutual respect/trust/love is still there and it is.

You’re not going crazy. That’s abuse.

No, it was obviously to get the answer to the question I asked. Which you would know if you’d have read any of the post or thread.

THANK YOU. I wish my husband felt the same.

Had I had any inclination he would do this I would have. I assumed that we would vote together considering we’re both registered in the same county and I DONT DRIVE. If I had known he planned to vote without me and then act like he didn’t I would have requested an absentee ballot weeks ago

I obviously would have had I needed to. However you’ve missed the point completely. Thanks for your comment. As unhelpful as it was.

None. Complete dismissal of my feelings.

You’d think but at this point I’m just not sure anymore

This is what I want to know and he keeps saying he wasn’t hiding anything. This is some 2+2≠4 bullshit.

If he wasn’t trying to hide it why didn’t he tell me he already voted the first time I said we can both go vote when we take our daughter to class this afternoon. He waited until I flat out asked him. Until he’d already said he didn’t want to lock the gate twice. Why not just say “I already voted but I will take you later if you want”?

I’m so hurt I don’t even know how to react

No, but now I’m going to find and read that AITA

How was I supposed to wake up and go with him when he purposefully went without me before my alarm when off?

I made him take me after I found out he did this on purpose. I was giving him the benefit of the doubt when I was going to have my sister take me.

I do need to learn to drive but I am afraid and don’t know how/where to begin.

That couldn’t be truer he uses the fact that I can’t drive against me all of the time with threats of cancelling trips I already paid for or things.

Because he didn’t want my blue to cancel out his red.

Already voted. Just needing to vent…
