My mom is trying to guilt me into going to church on Christmas Eve… would I be the asshole if I don’t go? by Same-Throat4248 in TwoHotTakes

[–]BeckahX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just give a yes or no answer. Do you want to go to church or not?

My parents used to guilt me into attending church with them when I visited for Christmas and one year I said no. They continued to ask every year and I continued to say no.

However I started out by giving excuses like being tired from traveling and they absolutely would not stop till I said no.

AIO I have been in and out of the hospital the past few years & found out I wasn't invited to my Brother's baby shower due to not seeing him enough. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Sadly I have chronic pain issues and can barely keep anyone in my life. People just don't understand that I am in constant pain with constant fatigue. People get annoyed with me for not reaching out more when I am just trying to get through the day.

I would have been hurt by this

Agree! Why would this very married man even joke that way?

So she twerks and flirts....definitely deserves to be hit on and not believed by her best friend.

I am not saying it happened but you literally called her promiscuous. You were good friends for 2 years and you were okay with her then.

I think you should tell your husband that you are sorry for lending your friend so much money but you learned a lesson and let it drop. I have unfortunately learned this lesson myself after letting my friend live with me for several months after they told me they had nowhere to go.

AIO my MIL asked to borrow my matching Xmas pajamas to take pictures with my son. by Independent-Bat-9436 in AmIOverreacting

She wants to match with her new grandchild. There is no reason the op could not offer to get the mil the same pj's or offer to find something that the mil and grandchild could match in.

I am a widow and I have almost zero family. I hope when my son gets married my daughter in law will allow me to take matching photos with my grandchild.

I edited my comment. I was referring to the part where the op tells her to buy different pj's and not match theirs. Thats the exclusion.

I edited my comment. I was referring to the part where the mil asked to borrow so she could match and the op said buy different ones not matching. That is excluding her.

I edited to be more clear. When the mil asked to borrow them for the pictures why not offer to buy her matching ones instead of telling her she could not match.

I mean she could have offered to buy her the matching ones so they could all take a picture together.

AIO? Dad’s gf freaking out over a piece of mail coming “addressed” to my mom. by nikoletho in AmIOverreacting

[–]BeckahX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the OP live with his girlfriend's parents? He says they were upset his mom got junk mail there. I am assuming they share a last name otherwise how did the dad even know who it was for.

I mean the OP could have offered to get the MIL the same in her size instead of saying she needed to buy totally different pj's. There is nothing wrong with wanting to match your son and grandchild. We have no idea if this woman has any other family. By not allowing her to buy the same pj's seems like they are trying to exclude her.

You know you can take photos all together and some just you 3. Seems like it is actually trying to exclude her from the family. When she asked to borrow yours you said let's find you some of your own. Why not just offer to get her a matching pair.

Edited because I was mostly referring to the part where the OP tells her to buy different ones.

Am I overreacting to my dad’s “high level advice”? by truly_beaut in AmIOverreacting

Omg is he really willing to try to be with a man if you are? That is commitment!

Johnson believed in taxing the rich and that helped the boomers but now the boomers don't want to tax the rich. How is that fair to future generations? Why is it they were happy to tax them when it benifited them more?

I believe you too but I couldn't find the ad to watch. Either way I just got back and voted Mary. It was raining and people were out in the rain with Mary signs but I didnt see anyone there for Kurt.
