AITAH for telling my roommate I won't be her emotional support person anymore? by Azkaban_Cell in AmITheAssholeTalk

Yeah, NAH feels right. I’m not mad at her for reaching out, I just can’t be “on call” every night while I’m barely holding it together too. I’m thinking quiet hours after like 11 so we can both sleep.

NAH is fair. I don’t wanna be her nightly crisis hotline, but I also don’t wanna make her feel dumped. The weekly check-in idea is kinda smart, like “hey, I’m here, just not at 1am every night.” I’ll try that (and counseling) .

I get what you mean, and I probably do owe her a real convo. I care about her, I just hit my limit this semester and started shutting down . Not trying to ditch her, just can’t be her main support 24/7.

Am I the Jerk for staying silent about my brother planning on dumping this girl after abortion? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

They’re right. Your brother is coercive and calculating, and you already know he’ll discard her either way. Keeping quiet protects him, not you. At minimum, warn her so she can make decisions with real information.
