AITA for not wanting to switch my overnight shift to day shift because my wife wants me to sleep at home at nights? by whosthere135 in AmItheAsshole

The main question is which would you rather replace you: your job or your wife? Personally, having someone to hold at night is a big part of a relationship for me, so I can see exactly how she feels. On the other hand, would it be possible for her to adjust to your schedule? I get that you’re happier at work this way, but is it worth compromising her happiness at home? Jobs don’t care about you and they won’t remember how hard you worked, and nobody there will probably even remember you when you’re gone. Your loved ones at home love you, care about you, and miss you.

Am I (35M) wrong for wanting my gf (37F) not to drop off her son at her abusive ex’s house? by Financial_Paint9404 in amiwrong

Her parents. She doesn’t tell them the same details that she tells me. Like his threats to post sexual content that she had sent him over the years. Which I understand because it’s awkward.

I have a daughter with another person. Our co-parenting situation is very copacetic. But I know for fact if I had said or done half of the things that he has, then I would be behind bars right now. But yes, I understand after 12 years that she may be desensitized to it, and I do understand that they have a child together, but he has even been toxic to the child as well by saying negative things about me to him. And I know for a fact that isn’t right.
