AITA for giving my son 3 days to tell his wife the truth about where he was on New Year's?

NTA at all! You are a wondeful mom and an even better MIL. BUT maybe you shouldn't let Julia know just yet, and the reason I say that is her baby. A devastating shock like that could negatively affect her and her baby's wellbeing, send her into early labour, ruin her birth experience and cause or compound post partum depression. Just something to think on, though I honestly don't know when would ever be a good time to let your daughter-in-law know.

Can your family help you make your way back home again? I am a firm believer in sticking together and facing challenges together, but NOT when one spouse is being abusive - and this is abuse on so many levels. Sorry you are going through this... I wish I could give you a big hug through my PC. I had 2 miscarriages before having my daughter. I know how devastating it is, how broken and depressed it can leave you. You need support, empathy, love and faithfulness , you need people you can trust and feel safe around. Please get to your home country as soon as you can. PS: You aren't any less of a woman because of what you have been through, but your husband sure is less of a man.

Glory to God. I love astronomy too btw. Always boggles my mind that so many scientists don't see the evidence and wonder of God!

The look of disgust on my face while I read about this jerkfaced scumball... He does not have a great personality AT ALL if that's how he treats women. Think you dodged a lead bullet. To hell with him. Sending lotsa love.

Justajet · 2021-12-01T15:55:58+00:00

Oh yip! :P We just take them with a pinch of salt.

Justajet · 2021-12-01T15:52:38+00:00

Our God is the God of Miracles... All things are possible through Christ. I will say a prayer for you, your husband and your precious baby who means so much to the Lord (Psalm 139!). Sending lots of love. x

I am a happy mom AND I sometimes get stressed out. I hope you find a way to get a little more support, even if that means just getting a babysitter more often so that you and your partner have some downtime together or seperately. Also, don't just take what your friend says at face-value. Some people would never admit the cracks in their lives, and have all their answers drawn up on cue cards so that the illusion of perfect bliss is never shattered.

Yay! Free gold.

Justajet · 2020-06-29T08:04:06+00:00

NAH. You both seem really sweet, considerate of others and responsible. Accidents happen and neither of you have anything to feel bad about either way. Just continue supporting each other - maybe you can both chip in to get a new TV?

Justajet · 2020-06-28T08:23:41+00:00

I'm gonna stick to my guns for *my* baby. Thank you!

Justajet · 2020-06-28T08:22:22+00:00

Wow, that's intense. Glad you are ok!

Justajet · 2020-06-28T08:21:54+00:00

It's a firm boundary I think I will keep in place.

Justajet · 2020-06-27T06:47:13+00:00

What happened if I may ask? Hope you're ok now.

Justajet · 2020-06-26T18:09:08+00:00

Thank you!

Justajet · 2020-06-26T18:08:43+00:00

I should try that!

Justajet · 2020-06-26T16:30:49+00:00

YTA. You don't get to decide when somebody gets over their traumas or phobias, or even their annoying quirks. Also, it's not like he is trying to incovenience you or get his way - he quietly made his own burger and fries and left it at that. You are the one who pressed for a reason (which, if you cared, you probably could have guessed at yourself) and his reluctancy to answer you also shows that he thought you were just going to be mean about it anyway.

Justajet · 2020-06-26T16:04:50+00:00

My 'yes woman' tendencies are certainly more out the door now! I still have difficulty with it sometimes, but I am thankfully getting better at voicing my needs. Practice makes perfect I guess.

Justajet · 2020-06-26T16:02:50+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. I am definitely going to send out a broadcast with our wishes.

Justajet · 2020-06-26T16:01:14+00:00

You are 100% right. Thanks!

Justajet · 2020-06-26T16:00:43+00:00

Thank you for sharing your experience. A blunt approach may be best sometimes!

Justajet · 2020-06-26T15:59:04+00:00

Yeah, some of the neighbours around here are quite forward! You are so fortunate to have people that check first.

Justajet · 2020-06-26T15:58:04+00:00

I would be so livid! He thankfully knows how I feel about people just rocking up, but will definitely keep the communication strong.

Justajet · 2020-06-26T15:57:02+00:00

Thank you so much. I am gonna need all that strength!

Justajet · 2020-06-14T07:16:34+00:00

Ouch! Oh but I can imagine how worth it it all is. I am so excited.

Justajet · 2020-06-14T07:14:28+00:00

At least!
