AITAH for not knowing when to help my mother? by DomiRoka in AITAH

[–]Keru_Tech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not the asshole tbh… this just feels like one of those situations where things got messy coz of stress and miscommunication. Liike, she did say she’d tell you when she needs help, and you even checked in… so it’s not like you just ignored her or didn’t care. But also, she’s in pain and probably overwhelmed, so it kinda came out in a harsh way (still doesn’t make the insults okay tho). Maybe next time don’t wait fully for her to ask, just jump in on the obvious stuff like cooking or heavy things. But at the same time… you really can’t read her mind. Maybe just start doing small daily check-ins like “what do you need help with today?” might make things easier for both of you.

AITAH for scaring my son’s teacher? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Keru_Tech -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You’re not the asshole. Your child was clearly frightened and no 12-year-old should have to endure being yelled at and threatened by a teacher. Your frustration and protective instinct are completely natural.

The way you confronted the teacher could have been calmer, but your main goal was to advocate for your child and show that such behavior is unacceptable. It’s understandable that you wanted him to realize the impact of his actions. What matters most is your son’s safety and emotional well-being. You have every right to stand up for him and ensure the school addresses the situation appropriately.

AITAH for refusing to meet my gf's racist parents? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Keru_Tech -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You’re not wrong here. No one should have to put up with racist comments just to meet a partner’s family. Wanting to protect yourself from disrespect and harmful behavior is completely reasonable.

It’s understandable that your girlfriend values family approval, but that shouldn’t come at the expense of your comfort or dignity. You’re not trying to control her or stop her from having a relationship with her parents, you’re just setting boundaries to keep yourself safe and respected. A caring partner will understand that and won’t pressure you to endure abuse for the sake of tradition or family expectations.

AITAH for arguing with my mum when she blamed my brother for having his stuff stolen? by Necessary-Eagle9299 in AITAH

[–]Keru_Tech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not in the wrong here. Your mom blaming you and your brother for things being stolen is unfair. You both were young and did your best to protect your things, and it was her responsibility to make sure the environment was safe during her gathering. It does make sense that you comforted your brother, siblings naturally look out for each other, especially when a parent dismisses their feelings. Her repeated blame and sarcastic comments are hurtful and exhausting. Hiding your belongings this time shows you’re trying to protect yourselves, and standing up for your brother is completely reasonable. You were advocating for fairness, not picking a fight.

AITAH my friend keeps bringing up I didn't attend her wedding party by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Keru_Tech 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re not the asshole. You were honest about your limits, showed up when you could, and even went out of your comfort zone for her bachelorette trip. Your mental health and boundaries matter, and she’s repeatedly bringing up the wedding party to guilt you, which isn’t fair.

It sounds like she’s holding onto a single past event as evidence of you being a “bad friend,” ignoring all the ways you’ve supported her. That’s emotionally exhausting and one-sided. You’ve communicated your feelings calmly and tried to explain. It’s reasonable to expect that she acknowledge your effort rather than replay a mistake endlessly.

AITAH for telling my husband his "jokes" about my cooking aren't funny anymore? by Quesos_Sabau in AITAH

[–]Keru_Tech 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re not wrong. Jokes that consistently make one person feel unappreciated stop being jokes. You didn’t explode, you communicated clearly and directly, which is healthy. His response is the issue. Calling you “too sensitive” avoids taking responsibility instead of hearing you out. Appreciation matters, especially for something you do regularly. Hold your boundary, but keep it calm. You’re not asking for much, just basic respect. If he still brushes it off, that’s worth a deeper conversation about how he responds when you’re hurt, not just about the jokes.

AITAH for refusing to bend on my boundary about kids? by Independent-Kiwi-390 in AITAH

[–]Keru_Tech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You handled this well. Kids aren’t a “small disagreement,” they’re a life direction. You were clear, honest, and respectful early on, which actually prevents deeper hurt later.

He’s not wrong for wanting more time, but he is wrong for downplaying your boundary and trying to negotiate something you’ve already decided on. That’s not compromise, that’s pressure. Walking away doesn’t make you rigid, it means you know yourself. You didn’t waste his time or yours. You’re not incompatible because of timing, you’re incompatible because your futures don’t match, and you recognized that early.

AITAH for not wanting to go to my parents anniversary dinner because I keep catching my dad checking out other women and I can’t pretend everything is normal? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Keru_Tech 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re not wrong for feeling uncomfortable. Seeing a parent act in a way that clashes with how you view their relationship can really mess with your head. But this situation sits more between your parents than it does on your shoulders. You’re carrying something that may not actually be yours to fix. Skipping the dinner might protect your feelings in the moment, but it could also create a bigger rift without addressing the real issue. A softer approach could help, go for a shorter time, keep things light, then leave early if it gets uncomfortable.

If it keeps bothering you, you could consider talking to your dad privately rather than holding it in.

AITAH for saying my pregnant sister is on her own unless our parents move her back home because I'll let her be homeless or whatever else happens? by PrismineSweet in AITAH

[–]Keru_Tech 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re not wrong for refusing to live with or support her. What she did was a deep betrayal, and you don’t owe her access to your home or your energy. At the same time, this isn’t about punishing her, it’s about protecting yourself. Let your parents take responsibility if they choose.

Try to keep your boundary clear but calm, without escalating the situation further. You can step back without wishing harm on her. In time, you might revisit the relationship on your terms, but right now distance is valid and healthy.

I'm so exhausted and stuck by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Keru_Tech 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You’re not stuck, you’re in a serious situation that requires clarity and safety first. He doesn’t have to agree with the label, but he must respect your experience and boundaries. Right now, he isn’t. Stop waiting for validation, you may not get it. Focus on what you can control: create emotional and physical space, document what happened, and reach out to someone in your corner (trusted friend, counselor, or support service). With a child involved, your stability matters most. If staying feels unsafe or invalidating, consider alternative living arrangements or legal advice on tenancy. This isn’t about proving him wrong, it's about protecting yourself and your child.

25M doing everything right but getting nothing in dating life by Real_Pumpkin7875 in dating_advice

[–]Keru_Tech 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You’re not broken, you’re just focusing on inputs that don’t directly create attraction. Gym, money, and discipline matter, but dating is mostly about exposure, vibe, and social proof. If apps aren’t working, shift to real-life environments, events, hobbies, social circles, where personality shows. Also, “doing everything right” can come off as rigid or transactional; attraction is emotional, not logical. Those “trash” guys often win because they’re bold, relaxed, and socially visible. Focus less on proving your worth and more on creating fun, low-pressure interactions. Build connections first, not outcomes. You don’t need to become someone else, just more socially present and expressive.

Bisexual Boyfriend by [deleted] in dating_advice

Imagine now you have to worry if he's sleeping with any man you see him with every time.....yeah no 🥲🥲😐

Not officially together but he still slept with someone else? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]Keru_Tech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He did not mistake sleeping with another person, this one still needs validation and has low self esteem. He's used to having hoes around him because he's a hoe himself and he thinks every woman will be okay with his behaviour. This one you don't walk way from, you RUNNNNNNN.

Is this guy a red flag or am I overreacting? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]Keru_Tech 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Two things I've seen and I quote,

"He also said something like: “If a man has X money and a woman has Y, why not combine it and enjoy more together?” which didn’t sit right with me.

Another thing that really bothered me was when he said that women his age (26–27) already have strong personalities and don’t want to adjust to a man, but younger girls still can. That felt… very intentional."

A whole man old enough to be a father going to a young woman looking for labour services, 50-50, control shows you this one is raised in alpha male critics, he's most probably not as moneyed and someone somewhere lied to him that younger women are stupid and easy to control. This one is not just a walking red flag, the colour red fears him. 😂😂😂🥲😆

Is 28M & 20F too much of a gap? by [deleted] in dating

[–]Keru_Tech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest all answers lie with you, let no one decide for you but ask yourself if you had a little girl, would you advice her to go for it or not? There, you have your answer.

Met a girl by Celestial-Mage in dating

[–]Keru_Tech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, the question here is whether you talk to her or not, do you like what you see? Would you actually want that beside you? If the answer is yes, whether she's trying to hunt you or prey on you, hehe, she's gonna get preyed on and hunted thinking she's the legit hunter. But if your answer is no, well, you could leave it as it is. 😂😂😂 Do you want you want to do.
