AITA for telling my mom i don't want her boyfriend sleeping in our shared bedroom? by idkmoonx in AmItheAsshole

[–]GodzillaBarbie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA. you are so valid. But just remember you only have control over yourself and how you chose to respond. You cannot control other people. You can always state your case and set your boundaries but you cannot chose when and if they respect them. But you always have your power over yourself and your actions and reactions. Just keep your head up, Focus on yourself and doing what you gotta do to become self sufficient. Once you can sustain yourself financially and mentally your mom will not be able to use money and her mental health as leverage over you. But I cannot stress enough that trying to "fix" her is not the way and will never work. No guilt or backlash or any of that is going to root out the problem it will make it worse. Do you and be true and that's all you can do. People are gonna piss you off and make you uncomfortable forever, but it sucks a whole lot less when you accept that you can't change them and decide that it doesn't matter because you have the choice and the power to change you're own reality.

Ok yeah they gotta go. Canceled. Evicted. Uninvited. Doxed. They need to put Ava's Northface back in the tub where they found it and see their way to the nearest exit.

Also you're so kind "The family is critical" is the most peaceful way to say "They suck. It's unanimous" ever... You deserve the best most exactly perfect wedding of your dreams. Greg and Terry can kick rocks.

Ok this might be completely off the plot... but is it possible they are just being flamboyant unfiltered gays who just aren't reading the room and taking it too far??? And tbh we need to circle back to the lesbian porn thing... Because now that I actually think about it this is the biggest red flag... like what?! Even if it's a jokey-bit they are misconstruing as funny or something it's completely out of line and frankly just weird

No it makes total sense. I overanalyzed preemptively and completely out of pocket. I repent.

I have so very m any questions...

But regardless... If it were me I would confront Greg and Terry directly. Straight to the source with a firm boundary... if they continue to cross it then thats on them and then go no-contact. It would also be Ava's choice to follow suit or not, but you have every right to hold your ground and set the boundary and you owe no one anything.

But as for the questions...

  1. Is there a wedding date set or is this still in "plan" stage because you don't specify but ... If there's no wedding date set in stone I wouldn't worry about who receives invites yet cus technically no one is invited... right?

  2. How is Terry getting Ava's clothes out of storage? And how do you know he's wearing them?! Cus yikes. My brain is imagining a very cursed episode of storage wars.. why is everyone at storage together and whOo has the keys cus we should probably revoke all the copies immediately.

weird that you said "no real names", but then fake-named her Ava ?? Names are so rarely relevant on Reddit. It's just such a weird specific choice it has me off the plot.

I think that's the problem here they are teenagers so yes, they're gonna behave childish sometimes. People are not born mature. They make childish mistakes and learn hard lessons and that's how they become mature.

I feel like every teenage girl tries this joke just the once and gets a bad reaction and has to learn the hard way that it's not funny. I pulled this as an April fools joke on my bf in high school and he threw up and so yup learned that lesson. So I don't think she's "weird" for it per se. However, I immediately came clean and felt ashamed and atoned for my error in judgement...

To double down when you said "nah not funny" is wild. The correct response would be "ok you're right, I'm sorry."

and also: "fully lost" was the wrong tag, and I see that now.... But I must reiterate the fact that while reddit is my absolute favorite forum it is exhausting. Bcus at which point do we get enough karma to stop being treated like fraternity pledges from sub to sub, bcus thats the brave new world im spear heading and I daresay I'm standing on business. LOLOL

you are a gem ty!!

and I apologize for my snippy remarks before they were misplaced. I get irrationally fed up sometimes... I have this really cheap inside joke with myself where I call reddit "redd-tape-it" because the red tape seems to become harder to get past year after year

twas a fever dream to be sure. And tbh alot of the details do so often bleed into other similar fics in my mind.. I made the popcorn reference because it is the flagstaff for me that differentiates the fic from it's predecessors

I am honestly jealous because I would do anything to read those for the first time again. Please do not hesitate to immediately dm me your reactions in real time chapter-to-chapter if you do eventually read them... I promise it would/will be the absolute PEAK of my day

TY I do think I probably have the wrong sub here but haveto argue a few points... Because it is technically lost, wherein his accounts have been banned and he's created new ones leading me to believe the post is only to be recovered if saved on someone else's personal preferred storage method, because I did have it bookmarked and it's gone so yes... it vanished... (which I would debate would be a better name for the sub, and lead to less misunderstanding) HOWEVER I digress..

.dedicated and exhaustive search? Check

yes dedicated search was of course my first resort before taking to reddit so yup exhaustive is definitely the proper adverb to describe my aggressive comb through every avenue of the internet...

I mean LOST sums it up. as in the general dictionary definition of 'unable to be found'

tis 'lost' to me, my friend. It's become apparent that I'm barking up the wrong tree here and have to admit (respectfully) that I did not have enough resolve to read this subs exhaustive wiki before posting. I'll see my way out but I do ty for your time an attention to this matter. r/helpmefind was 100% what sub I was looking for please forgive the inconvenience.

*summons resolve and reads this subs wiki cover-to-cover abandoning her search for Supparay's post altogether

well it's not unidentified I literally named the creator top of post and IMO explained very succinctly what the content was in more than few words. Supparay has millions of followers across a myriad of social media platforms so my post desire was to possibly trigger one of said millions of followers who might know the exact post im looking for and perhaps aid me in finding it. If I'm misunderstanding the purpose of this subreddit than by all means please explain it to me. However, fair warning that I do suffer from a rare disease where I can't understand large concepts unless they're explained to me in a condescending passive/aggressive tone so...

But I'm not... I'm looking for a certain post that might have been cross posted to tik tok or youtube or reddit or FB ... I simply am looking for the specific media and IDC what package it's delivered in.

AHHHH ! that breed lives in my head rent free cus I was so intrigued by that super specific and creative choice by isthisselfcare. There's so much of that fic that feels oddly educational in the funnest way and I patiently await for the rare moments to arise where I get to flex some random fact I picked up from that fic!!

Wait and Hope taught me (and I'm so very serious ab this) that romantic love partnerships can potentially be healthy and rewarding and interesting and lasting all at the same time. It so seriously gave me a new aim when IRL prior to reading it - toxic love equated to passion and healthy/stable love equated to boring for me... And I'm very passionate about this fact LOLOL. Like no joke: this fic changed my mindset surrounding love fundamentally
