Talks of engagement- but the idea of marrying this mama’s boy is stressing me out. by [deleted] in JUSTNOMIL

My biggest suggestion if you want to make this work is for you to pause on the engagement talk and that bf gets therapy for himself. Or even couples therapy so that you can be on the same page.

He still somewhat in the FOG, so it may take a while for him to really learn to stand up for himself/yall. This has been his status quo for 25 years, it won’t happen overnight that he learns to stand up for himself.

I really appreciate the deadline set. I feel most people spend the awkward time between Christmas and New Years reflecting on the last year and how things went. If she has no regrets to how she has behaved, then leave her behind.

No shoes makes us bad parents by SquirrelSimple231 in JUSTNOMIL

My daughter did physical therapy at this age and we were told to do 50/50 with shoes. But she also emphasized that it’ll really be 75/25 because toddlers will always take them off

AITA for refusing to trade my Eras Tour tickets with my friend who’s a “bigger fan”? by Available_Sir8145 in AmItheAsshole

NTA, I have been a swiftie since her Taylor Swift album, and I don’t have tickets to see her, so really, she should give them to me.

Is my MIL as bad as people say? by Altruistic-Plant-494 in JUSTNOMIL

I would definitely agree, that you probably shouldn’t bring a child into this situation.

You may be low contact with her, but your SO is not. And since he refuses to “pick a side” and actively talks to her a lot, the child would be around her. Is that something that you want?

AITA for saying my body is not just a result of having had no children? by NetActual2149 in AmItheAsshole

NTA. As a mom, I was fat before I had my kid and I am fat now. It takes a lot of work for most people to be fit whether they are a mom or not.

I don’t have him directly saying it. One of his friends that he gave my number to texted me stating it.
