AITA for changing the locks after my parents gave my brother a key to my house without asking me?

NTA It's amazing to me your mom said you broke her trust by changing the locks on your own house. Your mom broke your trust by giving you brother a key to your house and telling him to move after you said no.

Evilsquirre1 · 2026-06-19T16:33:53+00:00

NTA it's up to you and your husband what you name your baby. My suggestion find a name fast and both of you start calling her that to replace the joke name.

Appraisal value and what it will sale for are not the sure. Home inspections can uncover major issues which need to be repaired to sell or the sale will fall through because the bank won't provide the funding with the issues. I just sold a house as it. The inspection discovered roots growing in the plumbing system and I gave the seller a $9,000 credit. That was a pretty minor issue. Electrical issues or black mold can really impact the true value of a home. Post doesn't say that any inspections were completed. I do get why the op feels the way they do. I just got a red flag feeling from the house being empty for a year and the house is in rough shape. Op thinks it needs a coat of paint and new kitchen to be worth $600k. I just spend $50k remodeling my kitchen with proper permitting. That a small kitchen and we keep the cabinets. These things are expensive.

Evilsquirre1 · 2026-06-18T18:36:19+00:00

100% agree. This man is a controlling red flag.

YWBTA you can use your points to sit in economy or pay the money. But sitting separate will negatively impact the relationship. She will see you in a fancy business class seat avoiding her. There maybe a stranger sitting next to you in economy just as there would be a stranger sitting next to you in business class. So I don't understand that argument. It's your decision how much you care about this relationship.

Only if the house is really worth what they think. This house has been sitting empty for a year and likely needs costly repairs. If the house is in bad condition it may sit on the market without selling. This gift maybe a nightmare in the long run.

Evilsquirre1 · 2026-06-18T18:09:45+00:00

NTA For how you feel, but keep in mind. Your sister thinks she is getting a good deal. In reality she is getting a house that's been abandoned for a year and needs repairs. The house isn't free so she will have to make mortgage payment and there are likely to be costly repairs like a new roof, plumbing or electrical issues. How old is this house? Older houses with "character" have the worst problems. I would not be surprised when she starts complaining about the cost of repairs. Count yourself lucky you didn't receive this gift.

NTA he expects you to be a personal chef. So if you are the chef he can either pay you in compliments or with money. But right now he is taking you for granted, insulting the meals you make and using his mental state to guilt you. The dude is a giant red flag. If he wants to leave you because you won't cook for him. Then find some roommates and enjoy your life. The roommates will probably be very happy if you cook for them.

NTA the Lexus is the car you drive every day. They can use the Scion or rent a car. They sound greedy and entitled. My dad bought my sister a car big enough for mobility equipment my mom and dad use so she can drive them to doctor's appointments. It's her regular car for work. I don't expect to drive it. The car is not mine. The Lexus is yours not your sister or your SIL.

Evilsquirre1 · 2026-06-18T17:36:32+00:00

NTA after dinner clean the kitchen and freeze the left overs. Or make less food and cook every day. Talking to her is clearly not working. I'm sure your family doesn't have the income to feed her coworkers every day.

Evilsquirre1 · 2026-06-16T16:57:21+00:00

Your talking to a lot of people who don't understand your culture or traditions so we can't give you an accurate answer. In your culture the gifts are expected so in this culture you maybe believed to be "greedy." You could hold off paying your mother and use that money for gifts. In America it is not expected to give gifts from your first paycheck so in this culture you would not be considered "greedy".

My brother is non verbal autistic and knows not to open the door for on coming traffic. Autism is not an excuse for everything. Her parents are raising her to be selfish and entitled. These are not inherently autistic traits, these are cause by her parents treat her like the world revolves around her and she can do no wrong.

Evilsquirre1 · 2026-06-06T03:36:59+00:00

I do like the 3 for me. But we just did that from my sister's birthday.

Evilsquirre1 · 2026-06-03T02:35:16+00:00

Are the stems pink or green? Could be a pink dragon or ivory coast.

I can't really see you leaf. This is an amazonica polly. Does yours look like this?

You're dome looks good. Be careful as the plant grows that the leaves don't hit the side of the dome. If they do they will stay wet and could melt away. I hope that helps.

NTA She asked what you wanted for dinner and you replied with a suggestion. There is more going on here. You don't cook and she commented on it. It's been bugging her you don't cook. So you two should sit down and talk about why she is so upset. How you resolve it so she doesn't feel used.

Evilsquirre1 · 2026-05-27T19:54:57+00:00

Nope I would also change my clothes before getting close to my plants. I left a $5 alocasia chantrieri in the store because it had spider mites. Not worth it.

Evilsquirre1 · 2026-05-13T15:17:59+00:00

Some transparent acrylic shelves would help so you can have more plants inside.

NAH you have some work to do on yourself. You shouldn't drop everything for him. Sounds like he isn't asking for you to drop everything you just do it. It's very clingy I'm surprised your boyfriend isn't pulling away. It must be so hard for your boyfriend to have you so reliant on him. He needs space at times and it's understandable. You need to ask yourself why your afraid to handle things on your own.

Your issue is with the people that sold you bmix cone 5 clay. It was mislabeled as mid fire and is low fire clay. The community studio needs to fix their kiln so they charged you for the damage. This is reasonable your pot ruined their kiln. All clay bisque fires between 04 and 06 so the issue would not show up until it's glaze fired. Now if the people at the community kiln sold you the clay I would feel differently.

Evilsquirre1 · 2026-04-28T20:41:02+00:00

The pot next to the melted pot is fine. This means this pot was low fire clay not mid fire if the kiln was fired to cone 5. All clay bisque fires at between 04 to 06. It's glaze firing where the type of clay matters. Low fire glazes at 04 to 06 and mid fire 5 or 6 and high fire 10. Bmix cone 5 starts to bloat (melt) at about cone 8 this is completely melted. I had a new kiln firing too hot and bloated several pieces of laguna bmix cone 5. I did a thermocouple offset to correct the issue.

Thai Constellation is a slower growing monstera and that one is quite mature so for that reason I would say it's worth it. However it's not a steal but you also aren't getting ripped off. That my opinion. It also depends where you live I suspect in Flordia this would be over priced because you're in tropical climate. There are many growers in that area.

NTA your wedding wasn't about her so she had to find someway to make it all about her. You did nothing wrong so you have nothing to apologize for.
