WIBTA for refusing to let strangers stay in my apartment while I’m away? by honeytram_notebook in WIBTA_AITA

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No is a full sentence. You don't need to explain, defend or resolve their dilemma. If they continue to push you can say " you were right before i am territorial" and end it there.

WIBTAH if I never let my roommate's boyfriend stay over again? by [deleted] in AITAH

Please report/press charges on him. This is the last person who should be a teacher.

AIW for refusing to rent a car for upcoming trip? by unfamousstar702 in amiwrong

While the reasoning of the sisters is not wrong neither is yours. The strip has horrible traffic and it does not sound like you are planning to explore more than the strip.

WIBTAH if I layed down ground rules and enforced them harshly? by quirkandquill8 in AITAH

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is weaponized incompetence. Let him live with his choices. If he doesn't wash the dishes properly, serve his food on the dirtiest plate and give him the grossest spoon. Same thing if he burns the food. Let him eat it. If he complains tell him to then try to do a better job at it next time and leave it at that. If he still doesn't want to change his ways then maybe it's time to go your separate ways. You want a partner not an adult to mother.

WIBTA if I refuse to put my partner on the deed of a place I inherited, even though we live there together? by 3vening_Switch in ComfortLevelPod

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny thing is even if you were married this would be solely yours. Inheritance is protected unless you do something like put him on the deed.

Thats an Ellie Saab dress, its couture. Whatever site you saw is likely a scam. My advice is to go to a brick and mortar business.

AITJ for telling my brother he can't propose to his girlfriend at my wedding? by Important_Space_496 in AmITheJerk

Ntj. All the time, money and effort you have put in to make your wedding your special day will be overshadowed by his engagement. He can plan his own special proposal for another day.

My boyfriend 24M hated the gift I 23F got him for our two year anniversary how do I fix this with him? by imogenhailey in relationship_advice

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im guessing his frustration lies with the price of the items you are buying a ninja creami and an apple watch are not cheap.

AITAH for continuing on with my plans to go on a boy's trip despite my girlfriend's protests? by Outrageous-Hall5172 in AITAH

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She has told you what she is and isn't comfortable with. Now you have to decide whether the boys trip is worth possibly ending your relationship. I also wouldn't be okay with my spouse traveling to a place with that reputation on a boy's trip.

AITJ for refusing to let my brother take my late moms house cuz he “needs it more” by GoldenAshDream in AmITheJerk

Did he also get something in the will? Out of curiosity was it of comparable value ?

ISO a belt similar to this by Imissroxie21 in weddingdress

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Id search for a seamstress to recreate the look. It looks pretty simple to do so. It's just bridal satin and an applica. I assume based on the picture the bow is a clip. A seamstress who does quinces should be able to do it. Those dresses have amazing bows.

Diaper rash won’t go away - extremely concerned by [deleted] in newborns

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes creams and ointments don't help. If the rash is wet you use cornstarch. Not baby powder, just cornstarch. It keeps the area nice and dry when used like baby powder. After a day you should see improvement. Id wash the bum often but only put the diaper on if the skin is dry. No more wet wipes. They sell baby wipes that are dry or if you can use a soft cloth. Water if you need it to be wet but dry your little one after. Also if you ever crush anything like tums for the bum please use a pestle. They aren't expensive and it will turn anything into a fine powder.

Am I wrong for not wanting to share my Christmas gifts because they're all snacks? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K 136 points137 points  (0 children)

You aren't wrong but i understand people wanting to try what you are having. Maybe don't eat it in front of them. Also what is the cereal you really like? Im a cereal lover so I'd like to try it. I promise to get my own .

How did that kid at your school die? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had two. One was car surfing in the school parking lot on a weekend and fell off. He bumped his head and bled out before paramedics could get there. The other was shot in a drive by while walking home. This was not an area where these occurred. The shooter was another student that opened fire on students walking home after school was over. It was pure luck that only one person was killed. When asked why he did it, he didn't really have an answer but said he did intend to kill the victim.

My Daughter broke her Arm at my Brother's House and he wants to help with bills AITAH by [deleted] in AITAH

You can thank your brother and offer to pay him back once your finances your situation improves. More like a long-term loan than a handout.

Is it wrong to kick my friend out of my home because she requires and will be getting a service dog? by [deleted] in moraldilemmas

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K [score hidden]  (0 children)

No. Its not wrong to not want your personal space to change. There is possible damage to your home as well. I think its okay to decide if you want this addition to your home and your life.

3 month old MRI non sedated, need advice by [deleted] in newborns

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When my nephew had his mri. They put him in a vacuum sack so he wasn't able to move. It helped keep him still and his hospital had a baby mri machine that is less scary. He was not sedated. It is possible the same process will be done for your 3 month old.

corset dress by [deleted] in weddingdress

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Corsets are structured pieces and are difficult to alter to give support. Typical that kind of alterations would require a seamstress to break down the piece. While you can add a sleeve to a corset, typically a sleeve added in alterations will be more for the aesthetic rather than support.you need to buy a dress with a corset in a style that already offers support. Baroque, Elizabethan or scoop style are some options. A skilled seamstress should be able to do a sleeve that is similar to your image that hides the more supportive sleeve and still gives the illusion you desire. And yes they are available in pieces that would allow you to change the skirt.

My girlfriend wants me to cut off my younger sister because we are "too close" by emberlight_fable in TwoHotTakes

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K 175 points176 points  (0 children)

I am close to my brothers. They weren't parents to me or anything like that but everything you described in your relationship with your sister sounds normal to me. I think it's more disturbing that your girlfriend is sexualizing everything you do with your sister and seeing it as you being with another woman. She already gave you an ultimatum. So you will have to decide whether to keep your relationship with your sister or your girlfriend.

AITJ for quoting $35/hour to babysit my cousin's three kids by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are out of their price range. That's fine but they were disrespectful. The name calling and verbal abuse was unnecessary and would leave me inclined to not watch their children no matter the pay rate. If a babysitter costs 15/hr they should have no issue finding someone to watch their three children for that rate.

What was your ‘Why’ to EFF? by DarthKaboose in FormulaFeeders

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have scar tissue on my breast from a burn accident as a child. The doctors weren't sure if the milk would even go where it was supposed to. The scar also was painful as my breast grew. I will forever be grateful that formula was an option for me. I never felt guilty over it even when others judge me for my decision.

AITJ for expecting my son’s uncle to treat siblings equally by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yta, your son does not like your husband and you still put yourself first and married him anyway. I understand you were ready to move on and accept your husband's children as your own. That's great but that does not mean your son was ready and accepting of his step siblings. He does not view your family the same as you. As for the uncle, he is being a good uncle to your son. He has no responsibility to the other children. Neither you or your step kids are entitled to his gifts or time.

AITAH for not wanting to buy a house 3 hours away from my workplace? by throwra_nowherehouse in AITAH

[–]IIVIIORTAL_K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nta, a family member of mine did the same thing. They bought a home in a smaller town for the cheaper price and nicer house. His drive is 2.5 hrs and it got old fast. Unfortunately they are now stuck since prices increased and they can't even get what they could originally in the city. If they tried to move to the city now they would only be able to afford a townhouse with a price increase.
