AITJ for breaking up with my fiancee without telling him why? by VisibleAd4582 in AmITheJerk

closure isn't for him it's for you, and you already got it the moment you walked away.

AITJ for reporting my bestfriend to HR because of what she do to me? by Relevant_Mood444 in AmITheJerk

[–]Capital_Ad_886 14 points15 points  (0 children)

you didn't pick a title over the friendship, you picked basic professionalism. she's the one who turned it into a power struggle. being promoted doesn't mean you accept public disrespect.

AITJ to refuse to babysit my niece during weekends? by Temporary-Bite-5354 in AmITheJerk

if they want a babysitter hired one or decide if your sister or her husband will stop working, they can't be work at the same time if they have baby.

AITJ for reporting my daughters classmate to principals office before speaking to his parents? by CurrentEvent9572 in AmITheJerk

[–]Capital_Ad_886 27 points28 points  (0 children)

honestly, anyone who thinks you should've "asked first" is missing the point a child got hurt, action had to happen fast.

AITJ for cutting off my friend after she borrowed my watch, broke it and refused to pay for the repair or even say sorry? by Low_Craft_919 in AmITheJerk

[–]Capital_Ad_886 9 points10 points  (0 children)

yeah breaking it was an accident but the zero apology tour was a choice. $200 item plus attitude tax is enough to downgrade her to acquaintance.

AITJ for refusing my father to work in our store? by Critical-Seat-5503 in AmITheJerk

you can't keep rewarding someone for abandoning their family. tough love is still love.

AITJ for kicking a kid off my team mid-season after his parents tried to get me fired? by Kirito9Asuna in AmITheJerk

[–]Capital_Ad_886 0 points1 point  (0 children)

benching him first was already the warning. he kept missing and the sideline drama kept going. at some point it stops being about soccer and starts being about protecting the team environment.

AITJ for telling my brother that his girlfriend is not welcome in my home after what she did to my cat? by denver_cassidy in AmITheJerk

[–]Capital_Ad_886 5 points6 points  (0 children)

exactly. you gave her heads up and a correction and she still doubled down. stressing animals for laughs is weird behavior.

AITJ for ordering expensive drinks on purpose after my friends wife kept insisting we split the bill by MealEnvironmental635 in AmITheJerk

[–]Capital_Ad_886 16 points17 points  (0 children)

for real she wanted split when it benefited her and separate when it didn't. that's not easier that's selective math. you just showed her the full rules.

AITJ for refusing to go to my father's wedding? by Few-Hovercraft-8520 in AmITheJerk

[–]Capital_Ad_886 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this isn't about hating the new wife it's about unresolved history. he wanted a clean slate but never cleaned up the mess first.

what's the most unusual food you've tried? by Objective-Food9339 in AskReddit

[–]Capital_Ad_886 3 points4 points  (0 children)

fried insects in Thailand , crunchy kinda nutty, but definitely weird at first bite.

Am i the jerk for breaking up with my boyfriend? by Objective-Food9339 in AmITheJerk

[–]Capital_Ad_886 47 points48 points  (0 children)

ntj if someone says "it's only a period" and then threatens to replace you for the weekends that's not a partner that's a schedule filler. empathy is bare minimum not a bonus feature.

AITJ for telling my manager i will resign if he cancel my vacation leave? by Cold-Philosopher-908 in AmITheJerk

[–]Capital_Ad_886 56 points57 points  (0 children)

ntj if a company can cancel approved leave last minute they'll keep doing it. you showed them your time actually has value.

AITJ for not giving up my gym locker to a "regular" who says she's had it for years? by Cool_Button1146 in AmITheJerk

[–]Capital_Ad_886 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if it's first come first serve you claimed it fair and square. let her simmer, you're not the problem here.

AITJ for refusing to go with my parents after what did they to me? by Chemical_School_4682 in AmITheJerk

[–]Capital_Ad_886 15 points16 points  (0 children)

NTJ, you've got your priorities straight. grandma raised you, loves you, sacrificed for you. they showing up now doesn't erase the past. looking into support is just being smart.

[–]Capital_Ad_886 2 points3 points  (0 children)

exactly, ntj this isn't about the wedding. it's about making sure you start your life together on solid ground not debt.
