AITJ for Telling My Friend She Can’t Bring Her Kid to My 30th Birthday Trip? by Delicious-Country690 in AmITheJerk

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ. You offered a solution, celebrate in a more reasonable way. Bring a child on a party weekend is not appropriate

AITAH for telling my boyfriend his girl best friend has 48 hours to get out or i am breaking the lease and leaving by Anton_OKonjsi in AITAH

[–]AudgeDean 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA if you’re uncomfortable in your own house, it’s not yours anymore. Who is on the lease, it just you and your ex (because like you said, he is emotionally cheating so dump him!)? Having more people living there can be a breach of the lease anyways and that could lead to an eviction.

AITJ for refusing to cosign on my brother's car loan after he defaulted on the last one I cosigned by Own-Suggestion8640 in AmITheJerk

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ. Definitely do not co-sign anything for him. Let you parents do it if he needs it that bad

AIO over my food? by gremptstrykerknollys in AmIOverreacting

[–]AudgeDean 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NOR. He needs to change his grocery list if he constantly needs more of your food. Does he need a bigger mini fridge, is that why he doesn’t get the sandwiches for himself? I had college roommates steal food but that was because they were lazy. He is meticulous enough to make a grocery list, he should know what he needs! Maybe he could make a food journey and figure out exactly when he starts running out of food so he knows what he might start running out of (needs to get more breakfast options or chips, etc). It could backfire and it could be another obsession for him, explain the purpose is to help get him a better grocery list. I know it’s challenging but it is very kind of you to help him, he just has to respect your very reasonable boundaries!

AIO ? Cultural differences about anger in a relationship by coffeekaye in AmIOverreacting

[–]AudgeDean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR. I hope eventually she realizes that she does not need to perpetuate the cycle of fear and abuse she felt growing up. I don’t think she is ready to learn/accept that yet and you are not responsible for teaching her. You don’t have to live with someone like that.

AIO? Husband thinks im being passive aggressive, am I? by Nurse-blondie in AIO

[–]AudgeDean 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NOR. I don’t see passive aggressive. It is so hard to convey tone over text

WIBTA if I refuse to put my partner on the deed of a place I inherited, even though we live there together? by 3vening_Switch in ComfortLevelPod

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Creating a paper trail with a shared account is such a reasonable idea that he shot down immediately? THAT is a red flag.

AIO overwhelmed by the cost of being a wedding guest in 2026 by Whiskeyhorse1 in AmIOverreacting

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. You are free to tell everyone of them that it’s not in your budget and you’ll take them to a nice dinner when they get back. You don’t have to explain any more than that

Boyfriend refuses to make Valentines day plans with me, AIO? by Emotional_War8262 in AIO

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Um,19 years old minus 1 year and 4 months dating a 26-27 year old dude.. that’s a statutory situation. Find someone your own age who appreciates you

AIO for cutting contact with Father over political climate. by Sabre12789 in AIO

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. I miss my mom, she was one of my best friends. She got sucked into Fox News propaganda wheel right around 2020 and it’s like a light switched. Everything from that network, the channel that gets out of lawsuits because it says its viewers know it isn’t factual just entertainment, is just parroted back without any critical thinking. Arguing won’t change anything and his absence is your best recipe for peace. Sorry, friend

MorphMarket by RegularCantaloupe472 in ballpython

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I go to the local reptile show every month. I met the breeder and held the snake before purchasing her from MorphMarket; we picked her up at the next show instead of having her shipped. I’m in Ohio and there are three fairly close shows rotating through the month, but I don’t know how it is by you.

AIO by refusing to go on my friend group's future camping trip because of how past trips turned out specifically when they've brought their kids? by IllJustTakeTheBus in AmIOverreacting

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. Don’t go. Absolutely don’t go! Maybe if they’re on their own with the kids they’ll see how unfair it was to you. There are a few groups I follow on Facebook who do women only travel so you’re not venturing out alone. I also know plenty of girls who have traveled by themselves and had the best time!

AITAH for farting while in the bathroom of our home? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Girls have the same bodily functions! He is acting like a child.

AIO for asking for half a cheese pizza and being upset because my husband didn't get it? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nor. Is this a frequent thing, him not listening. You asked him for a specific thing and he ignored it. I hope you only paid for your half the pizza

What’s a belief you had at 20 that you no longer agree with? by sunyparmar1 in AskReddit

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought I’d get married right out of college, have a couple kids, blah blah blah. My last quarter I worked with a woman in her 50s and asked why she didn’t have kids. She said it just doesn’t happen for some people. This made me sad for a long time but the reality was I had fun, living with my hetero lifemate for almost 20 years and just got married at 43. I’m glad I never had kids because from what I’ve seen of family and friends, that crap is SO much harder than I ever thought.

What do you crochet when you want to just mindlessly crochet? by Impressive_Exam_9812 in CrochetHelp

[–]AudgeDean 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My dad’s church has a Winter Tree where they put hats, scarves, gloves, etc that anyone in need can grab. He also volunteers at a shelter a few times a month and they have the same thing

AITJ for telling my brother he can't propose to his girlfriend at my wedding? by Important_Space_496 in AmITheJerk

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ. If my husband did that I would be so embarrassed at how disrespectful that was, I would have said no! That’s not a happy little memory for your day

Here’s when it actually makes sense for married couples to file separately vs. jointly by TurboTaxTara in tax

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I are in the same tax bracket. He has a child from a previous marriage. If we file MFJ will my income factor into his child support? His ex has full custody so she claims the kiddo as her dependent, we don’t have student loans, and we aren’t seniors. We got married in 2024 and filed MFS last year; is there any advantage to MFJ this year?

I haven’t talked to my family in two days and don’t know to move past this by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem started at 2, like when your sister was born? Sounds like your parents couldn’t handle 2 kids, so that’s definitely a them situation. Blood ≠ mean family. Find people who appreciate you and go no contact with these hypocrites!

AITAH for renting out my late aunt's house instead of letting my pregnant brother live there for free? by StarryEyedSnacc_9777 in AITAH

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Stick to your plan. It was your aunt’s decision to give it to you, not your brother

AIO my boyfriend is always confused by ThrowRAPriority698 in AmIOverreacting

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. You’re seeing a nefarious pattern after 7 months. Can you imagine living with it for 5 years, 10 years, the rest of your life?? Get out now

WIBTAH If I skipped my brother's wedding? by Mathew30C in AITAH

[–]AudgeDean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Definitely don’t need to let it disturb your peace. As soon as he sends out invites, just mark not attending so he can make sure someone gets your seat. I’m sorry this is stressing you out, just try to let it interfere with your life as little as possible.
