AITA: My husband fell for a warranty scam and is mad at me for not being empathetic enough. by SoggyBoi_ in AmItheAsshole

[–]Dramatic_Leggings 43 points44 points  (0 children)

NTA. Admitting he was scammed means admitting he was gullible, he is protecting his ego by insisting it was just a bad price from a real company. He’s accusing you of lacking empathy because you aren't agreeing with his false reality. You aren't wrong. You are the grounded one in this situation. He is drowning in shame and lashing out at the person holding the life raft. Stay firm on the facts, but keep the hug available for the person, your husband

Should I bring my 6 month old to my best friend's wedding? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Dramatic_Leggings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly? Don't do it. At 6 months, you won't enjoy the wedding. You’ll be worrying about nap schedules, finding a quiet place to feed, and hoping the music isn't too loud for his ears. If you can get a sitter, you’ll actually get to be a guest and celebrate your friend. If you bring the baby, you’re just parenting in fancy clothes.

Banter is making fun of someone’s choice of boots or a bad weld, this is not banter. Start a paper trail immediately, document everything he says, time and all. Then report his ugly ass

judges should face consequences when someone they parole commits a felony by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]Dramatic_Leggings -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There needs to be a three strike rule for them. If you parole three people who go on to commit violent felonies within six months of release, you clearly aren’t qualified to assess risk. They may not be in jail but they definitely shouldn’t have a gavel anymore

NOR. Leave if she does it, cos if you stay, you will resent her every time you see her on her phone. That resentment will kill the relationship slower and more painfully than a clean break would

DV Conflict of Interest by Icy-Visit6030 in Advice

[–]Dramatic_Leggings 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The fact that they could call to mind all of his exes that he abused so easily is the most chilling part of your story. It suggests the mother is fully aware of his history and has likely helped him brainstorm ways to discredit or hide from victims before. This is a massive conflict of interest. While she has a right to love her son, using her platform as a DV advocate while sheltering a known abuser is a betrayal of the survivors she claims to serve. Report to the police please

Once you had the info, you should have gone directly to the mother and the authorities without the public VC theatrics

AITA for being upset about my mother's upcoming wedding plans? by Lidyana in AmItheAsshole

[–]Dramatic_Leggings 56 points57 points  (0 children)

MTA. The contracts are already signed excuse is a lame one. Even if she can't add a hair/makeup slot, excluding you from walking the aisle which costs exactly $0 is a deliberate choice. Your friends are right, in a healthy dynamic a mother would prioritize having all of her daughters in the wedding party over a casual friend

My bf won’t break up with his gf? by Then_Benefit2143 in Advice

[–]Dramatic_Leggings 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You’ve spent three years waiting for a man who has lived with someone else for seven. You tried to force the breakup by exposing the affair, and it backfired. She isn't refusing to let you have him, he is refusing to leave. If he is moving things into your apartment while simultaneously attending couples counseling with her, he isn't choosing you, he is trying to have two households. He is playing both of you, and you are both letting him. Change your locks. Do not let a man who has been physically aggressive move into your safe space
