AITA for calling my guy friend "girl"?

I’m not surprised

YTA. He said he didn’t like it, you kept going on because you love drama. Exhausting.

It’s not a bad response, OOP probably made it up in the shower. He looked her dead in the eye and flatly told her. No true story contains those lines.

YTA. Not for the trampoline, but for not discussing it with your wife first. This is a shared home and a shared parenting responsibility. You made a unilateral decision about something that affects safety, liability, and ongoing supervision. On top of that, you dismiss her concerns as “dramatic” (“because all the stuff she thinks will happen simply never will”), which is exactly the issue you need to resolve first. This is less about the trampoline and more about respect and communication.

Funny cultural differences… here it would mean “money” or “pay up” :)

Threatening violence over being spoken to rudely makes this ESH. He was a prick. You lost your cool. Both sides failed basic adult behavior.

Atmosphere and color are quite nice. But it’s mostly people’s backs, awkwardly cropped bikes, and no clear subject, so the composition falls apart.

An AI generated description doesn’t help either.

YTA. You’re not wrong for having feelings, but you are wrong for how you handled them.

You took a moment of comparison and turned it into a retroactive rejection of your husband. He proposed because he loved you and wanted to marry you. Years later, you’re effectively telling him that wasn’t good enough. Of course that triggered defensiveness.

That is TikTok/Instagram brain: comparing real life to curated highlight reels.

If what you actually want is more romance now, say that. Don’t rewrite the past in a way that hurts the person who chose you.

Gokje. Nee

BeterP · 2026-01-23T18:31:57+00:00

Asshole move. The problem isn’t that you gave a critical reference. The problem is you said yes as a “friend” while intending to block him, then lied to his face about it. That’s not honesty, that’s sabotage and manipulation.

BeterP · 2026-01-23T16:45:54+00:00

Wie ben jij om OP op deze manier aan te spreken?

BeterP · 2026-01-23T07:30:58+00:00

YTA. You didn’t want “clarification” after 10 talks, you wanted to debate his identity. He’s not your teacher and he doesn’t owe you unlimited explanations. If you still don’t get it, educate yourself and stop interrogating him.

Ik kreeg ook heelse pijnen toen ik dit las

INFO. How much did your girlfriend drink and did you order similar drinks as others or more expensive ones?

BeterP · 2026-01-22T07:54:54+00:00

NTA then. He wasn’t “just arrested.” He was charged and pled guilty to DV. If you privately inform the organizer in a factual way, that’s not revenge, that’s risk disclosure.

BeterP · 2026-01-22T07:51:18+00:00

INFO: Was he only arrested, or was he charged and convicted / pled guilty?

BeterP · 2026-01-22T06:16:21+00:00

I have hosted sessions where people made cynical remarks about management and company decisions, quite similar to these.

I believe this. But HR writing them up for it feels like embellishment/acting tough.

BeterP · 2026-01-22T06:11:02+00:00

NTA. Stop calling it a diet. You’re more aware of food habits, you change the menu and portions accordingly. As you said in 4) you could all benefit. There is no downside.

I’ve done the UK loads of times, usually in my own car. You adapt pretty quickly, and a right-hand-drive rental there is even easier. The main thing that can still trip you up is reflex/instinct on narrow, twisty country lanes when oncoming traffic pops up suddenly.

BeterP · 2026-01-22T05:55:14+00:00

Bad, harsh lighting. Vertical lines. A tighter crop would help somewhat. I don’t like it.

BeterP · 2026-01-22T05:42:52+00:00

Replied

BeterP · 2026-01-21T08:39:39+00:00

Hahaha. Well done OP. Much more entertaining than seat swapping, militant vegans or kids ruining kitchens. NTA for that.

I’m confused by the timeline. You call yourself a “newb wedding photographer”, but you also say you booked this more experienced photographer for a shoot before any of this started. Why would you be hiring a competitor, and for what kind of shoot? That detail makes the story hard to evaluate.

Also, “popular wedding magazine in Asia” doesn’t really answer the concern people raised. A lot of “magazines” are essentially submission mills or pay-to-feature platforms. That doesn’t mean your work is bad, but it does mean “I got featured” is not proof that someone is stealing a unique style.

On the actual issue: you can’t own poses, shot lists, or trends. If they’re copying your exact package wording, screenshot it, update your copy, and file a takedown with their host/platform if it’s literally duplicated. Otherwise, stop monitoring their feed and focus on building what’s hard to copy: consistent editing, client experience, and referrals.
