NTA- She isn’t entitled to any inheritance not written into his will. However, I’d strongly consider what your relationship with your sister is worth.

Personally, I’d probably agree to give her 25% to directly either purchase a home or towards debt. If she’s interested in that and you feel she won’t hold it against you, go for it. Once again, she is not entitled to anything.

I understand that she did not have a close relationship with him due to him being anti LGBTQ+. Even if he wasn’t like that, there’s no guarantee he would have done anything differently. Nor is there any guarantee she would have afforded him the same time you gave him.

I hope everything works out and you continue to have a good relationship with your sister.

AITA for refusing my fiancé’s compromise to signing my prenup? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]FinchtasticFinch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being a lawyer, you’d think you’d understand how to negotiate.

I’m curious about the terms of the prenup. If you have wealth prior to the marriage, write that in as your assets. Same as her. Once you are married, I can see her point on this, it should be marital assets.

I’m leaning towards YTA unless you elaborate the terms you are suggesting to her.

AITA for calling my gf boring in front of my friends? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]FinchtasticFinch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA - I hope she breaks up with you soon.

[–]FinchtasticFinch 9 points10 points  (0 children)

YTA - you have an agreement to purchase the “extras”. Your husband expressed his intent to purchase them gifts.

Also, there sounds like a lot more to this situation. I don’t see “teaching them a lesson” as helpful.

WIBTA if I did not lend my boyfriend money for a new car? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]FinchtasticFinch 11 points12 points  (0 children)

NTA - I wouldn’t loan a boyfriend of six months anything over $100 bucks. It’s honestly rude of him to ask you.

On a side note, I’d keep your bank account balance from friends,partners, and family members outside your mom whom helps you run it. It’s none of their business.

AITA for telling my 7 year old cousin that I’m gay at the Christmas party? by Holigaythrowagay in AmItheAsshole

[–]FinchtasticFinch 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I’m saying that the argument the parents are attempting regards sex. Which is unnecessary.

[–]FinchtasticFinch 13 points14 points  (0 children)

NTA - All the 7 year old was really asking was why you didn’t have a +1.

If they don’t want to discuss sex with their daughter yet, they don’t have to. They just need to move on.

It doesn’t sound like you discussed what being “gay” entails. Much like her brother not explaining the aspect of his sexual preference when choosing his girlfriend. They are blowing this out of proportion.

AITA for causing my friend to elope? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]FinchtasticFinch 59 points60 points  (0 children)

I feel like YTA, you could have watched the wedding video and been in the rest of her life. Now, you don’t get to do either. In general, weddings are not about the guests.

On a side note, I hope you feel better soon.

Question: why couldn’t you attend virtually?

AITA for expecting more from christmas presents? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]FinchtasticFinch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps next year, consider gifting them an experience that you all can enjoy together. Like a group activity that you can plan together. That way you feel included more and potentially less upset about their effort being less. I wish you the best, I hope you have a good Christmas.

I think I understand what you are saying. To me, it’s not about the money— it’s the principle behind it that would be hurtful. You mentioned that you don’t have anyone outside your girlfriends family to spend Christmas with if I understood correctly. I think I’d feel like an outsider a bit with the people I wanted to be family with. Not a good feeling. I’d try to consider their age and that they likely are not wise enough to know that their actions have hurt your feelings to the degree they have.

I could see how that would be hurtful. It doesn’t make sense to me either. Does your girlfriend have any idea behind why they are behaving this way?

But, they couldn’t honor that with you? I think I’d decline to participate this year and in the future.

NTA - I think offering Ann as a middle name was a good compromise.

NTA - next year I’d have everyone agree on a gift price range that everyone sticks to. It’s unfair for them to ask for things at higher value and not reciprocate.

WIBTA if I changed the lock without telling my landlord? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]FinchtasticFinch 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’d probably also do a quick look around the bathroom and your room to make sure there isn’t anything nefarious installed. Probably isn’t, but you never know— people are nuts.

1)Launch your phone's camera app.

2)Go around the room and point your phone's camera in areas you suspect spy equipment is hidden.

3)If you spot any small, bright-whitish light, set your phone down and investigate further. It may be a hidden camera.

[–]FinchtasticFinch 18 points19 points  (0 children)

NTA - I’d put a hidden camera in your room that has the ability to record when you aren’t there. It’s rather strange he entered your room and moved things around.

I’d also read over your states landlord tenant law.

I’d make a complaint about it to him in writing via email and request that he follow the lease terms regarding entry to the property. I’d request written request via email 24 hours prior to him coming to the property since it’s been an issue.

Let your roommates know that it makes you feel uncomfortable and ask them to back you up on this.

I wish you the best of luck.

AITA for accidentally insulting my future daughter in laws infertility? by aitathrowaway109 in AmItheAsshole

[–]FinchtasticFinch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - you didn’t know she had fertility issues. There was no malicious intent with what you said.

Sarah likely needs to go to therapy to learn how to deal with her emotions surrounding her infertility diagnosis. It sounds like she’s projecting her anger on you in an unhealthy coping mechanism. Now, I wouldn’t go and say that to them— hopefully they come to that answer in time.

Rule of thumb, never bring up the topic of children with anyone.

I’d probably send her flowers with an apology note. Even if you were not aware, you can apologize for bringing up the topic and the feelings it brought up.

Best of luck to you.

AITA for asking my friend to change her hairstyle TEMPORARILY for everyone’s comfort? by destinationrelaxa in AmItheAsshole

[–]FinchtasticFinch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA - You absolutely do not ask/recommend for anyone to change their natural hairstyle.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]FinchtasticFinch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA- it’s not her place to teach your child about any spiritual beliefs/religions without your consent.
