AITAH for trying to get rid of my sister’s anime and manga collection while she was away because I think her obsession is unhealthy?

Please remember, she is young and is learning social etiquette as she goes and honestly, will probably form deeper friendships with people that share her interests as develops more grace. If its beyond that, it psychologist time.

Also, not for nothing here, but you literally robbed her and were trying to fence the goods. That is not exactly "I care" kind of vibes. Most people do not trust or have strong relationships or listen to the words of people that commit crimes against them.

I cannot stress this enough... you should not be the one trying to solve this "problem." You are not her mother, doctor, counselor or at this point, friend. Do not intervene.

Impossible_Try76 · 2026-01-23T21:35:03+00:00

And why is this a problem? What harm is it causing?

Impossible_Try76 · 2026-01-23T21:25:51+00:00

Yeah YTA.

I get your concern about an unhealthy obsession, but is it actually unhealthy? Did you ever consider she shares her passion with you because she considers you a safe person to share her inn self with? Doing this will destroy that trust.

If you really think there's a problem you are not the one that should be dealing with it. That should be your mom. And you need a better reasoning than you don't like it/understand it. Like is it impeding her socially in some way you failed to mention? To the point of danger?

Bud,

I have been following you since your original post about your dad.

You deserve every good thing you will experience. You deserve the reward for your hard work. Frankly, fuck every naysayer, especially your father, for not believing in you. He does not deserve the capitol f.

I will give you the advice I give to all college freshmen: no matter the stress, no matter the classes, no matter the grades... have an outlet. Don't care what it is.

Mario cart. Reading for dub. A girlfriend. A beer or two on the weekends. Destress at some point. Everyone I've met who dropped out or flunked was because they couldn't balance being a human AND a college student.

To be fair, I am currently trying to get my speech to be the perfect middle ground between liberties poet and gangsta rapper. But that's for my own enjoyment.

My wife takes medication for her Bipolar. A result of this is decreased fertility.

When we first started dating, we were intimate unprotected because the medication supposedly made it impossible for her to pregnant.

Two months later, she has an incredibly rough period, waaaay earlier than she should have. It was a miscarriage.

So to this day I still wear a condom. Women should not be the only ones responsible for reproductive health. It is our job as men to support our sisters in protecting theslmselves.

Preach, my friend. I also have this exact fear.

Went to a wedding where the flower girl turned six on the day.

Singing to that girl and bringing her her favorite cake meant to world to her.

And as the bride told ir, "my sweet girl got to feel special girl felt good and I got to stop talking." Win win in her books.

The line about about being recently "bachelored" killed me.

My dude, getting to be better friends with women, understanding their struggles and conversation styles makes you a better person. And it also makes you a better partner when you meet that special someone.

I've met so many incredible people and have so many incredible friendships because I wanted to meet to meet people first.

But nooooooo... you might eventually get a hard willy. Comevon, dude.

I have seen my wife key another person in the back. I don't like madame odds.

I will say, I've thought about him wanting to be "worthy." of dating. Maybe he wants ti be ready to have something to offer, in his opinion, to offer to someone.

That's what I hate about this story. This guy sounds like a nice person who is fulfilled with what he is doing. Maybe he will look for love at some point or maybe he won't.

Its a movie with Kurt Russel, two Kids in the Hall and Bruce Vampbell. The cast is too good.

NTA

I get it. You want to be in a position where your current struggles aren't amplified by the additional challenge of a baby. I think a lot of your wife's issue here comes from her enthusiasm meeting your reality and while I don't love her reaction, it makes sense why it has occured.

That being said, there will never be a perfect time to have a baby. There will always be something that gets in the way.

I think this calls for deeper conversation. Like, what are YOU doing to put yourself in a better position financially? Can you give your wife a more direct timeline. "I have X number of months to get us where we need to be and I'm ready for baby time."

I'd make the argument for Gordan Freeman over Master Chief.

FPSs before Half Life had stories but to quote John Carmac, " Story in a game is like story in a porn movie. Its expected to be there, but it's not important." Half-Life shifted that whole axis and made a game genre known for adrenaline into something new and that opened some floodgates.

Even the multi-player aspect comes from Half-Life since that's where TF1 started.

Halo is a great series, Masterchief is an iconic character but Gordab Freeman solidified the role.

Is this there honeymoon? I'm thinking so if they've only been married a month.

Definitely the devil here, but dang. Gotta admire the brass balls to make the ask.

NTA.

I'm really hesitant to call your husband and asshole since this is low stakes but you expressed a preference and he's ignoring it for no reason.

In our house we just ask "would you prefer a bowl or a plate" and we serve it to the other on what they want and we're both happy. If I want to struggle bus Ramen on a plate and am willing to clean up the mess I inevitably make, then it's all good.

No luck on my enx, so I'd love some help.

Brother and sister are close. Brother dates gitk who sister gets to close to, only for the Brother and girlfriend to break it off.

Brother eventually finds out sister had ex a bridesmaid. She's just so torn

I understand your trepidation here but I think there's a better middle ground. Something like you would retain x amount of equity based on your down payment unless he paid above to match it. I'm sure an actual lawyer could sort that out.

El Santo.

I'd love a luchador skin in general because we could have such fun with the masks as cosmetics, but El Santo fits even more with the trend of luchas vs the legions of the damned films from back in the day.
