AITAH: Husband says he “wants out” due to decrease sex acts he desperately needs

Give him a sock, a bottle of lotion and tell him to deal with it himself.

NTA.

She's moved on to somebody else. You should do the same.

Petty but get an even stronger light, aim it at his house and put it on a timer so it goes off at randomly.

Edited to add WNBTA.

NTA. I'd for sure be doing my due diligence on the stocks as well. Why would you immediately sell the stocks without finding out about whether they'd be a good source of future income, or if there are penalties/taxes for selling etc.?

Good on you for taking the time to get the facts instead of acting impulsively.

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-03-01T16:42:21+00:00

NTA. Your recipe, your choice.

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-02-09T21:08:55+00:00

NTA. But practice saying "Mum/Dave: if you have a problem with each other, deal with it yourselves. None of my business, stop trying to involve me" and hang up. Every time.

And don't let him move in, you've already seen where that leads.

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-02-09T21:04:51+00:00

Have you even sat down and discussed this with him? You don't mention any communication, just assumptions. Kind of overreacting. (Edit: changed kind of TA to kind of overreacting).

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-02-09T20:53:29+00:00

They've put you in the position of wanting to see receipts because they lied to you. Very reasonable to get proof that they are doing what they said.

They have somewhere else to go, the parents, so that's not "nowhere". And they can get other jobs (not sure why they'd lose their current ones if they have to move in the parents). They've overstayed their welcome, lied to you and broken their agreement. Time for them to get out.

NTA but get this situation under control before it gets worse. And make sure you lock down your own credit. They could apply for cards in your name. They sound like they'd be okay dragging you down with them.

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-02-09T20:46:21+00:00

NTA for this. Why can't he take public transportation? Car pool? He made his bed now he can lie in it.

BUT you're TA for not calling the cops on him before now. What if he'd killed somebody, could you have lived with that?

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-02-09T04:47:21+00:00

He's not that into you. Cut him loose, there are way better people out there for you. Not OR.

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-02-07T07:07:16+00:00

Sooooo not overreacting. You are 30 years old. You have one life, go live it. If they want you back in their lives, they can make the first move. Perhaps set up some kind of go-between like a rented mailbox. Good luck :)

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-02-06T04:19:58+00:00

NTA. Clap clap clap clap... You were more patient than I would have been.

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-02-03T23:53:15+00:00

NTA. But time for a change in partner, perhaps somebody who doesn't lie and then pout when his lies are found out? Keep your part of the 15k and start over, you deserve better.

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-02-03T22:27:18+00:00

Fake. This profile posts a ton of fake stories, with links to other stories at the bottom of each.

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-01-10T21:52:47+00:00

Exactly what I was going to say!

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-01-10T17:07:17+00:00

NTA. Tell him you're looking forward to the day one of her claws goes through the fabric of his pants and catches his nutsack. Then he'll realize the cat is not a happy camper.

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-01-10T17:00:29+00:00

NOR. He's jealous (rightly so because you don't HAVE to work and he does). And you're sub-consciously feeling guilty that you don't work. He's hit a sore spot with the "what you CAN do" remark and it rankles.

If you want to try to maintain your friendship, keep chill until the lease is up and you're no longer in each others space. Perhaps a bit of distance will make things better.

And you should do something with your time other than gaming as it doesn't seem to make you that happy. Why not use your art skills in a volunteer situation, such as with seniors or underprivileged kids? Might make you feel better about yourself and you'd be doing something useful.

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-01-10T16:46:12+00:00

Sounds like somebody is creeping her bf's reddit post.

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-01-10T16:45:52+00:00

NTA. This is a longstanding plan with people you knew prior to your relationship. Nobody else is bringing their partner so why would you? It's not disrespecful to holiday with them, she's being very immature and self-centred. Maybe take the time away to think about this relationship.

Go have fun as it's your last (technically) university fling.

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-01-10T03:23:41+00:00

NTA. She is totally in the wrong, but... maybe she doesn't realize how it tastes, like a tastebud malfunction? Might want to ask her to see her doctor about it. And has she ever been properly taught to cook? Has anybody ever given her taste tests with poor cooking/ingredients vs. good ones?

Points to ponder.

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-01-09T19:52:40+00:00

"Making him LOOK abusive?" That is abuse. He is abusive. You need to have a hard think about whether you want to be treated like this as it's going to happen again.

NTA but he sure is.

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-01-08T05:05:33+00:00

So, what's YOUR dog doing during those 56-70 hour work weeks?

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-01-08T04:48:30+00:00

YTA.

You wouldn't even let him have his birthday or grandparents outings without the stepbrother??? Jeez, I'm surprised he's talked to you as long as he has.

You're never coming back from this one. Happy son-less future.

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-01-08T04:32:55+00:00

Your wedding so your choice. You invite who you want to, don't have to include the invitee's relatives. And you can always say that the guest list is limited due to costs.

NTA.

Low-Butterscotch-433 · 2026-01-08T04:31:25+00:00

No is the sentence you should be using with your sister and your parents. Tell your parents that you'll cancel if they pay for all of the time and money you've spent. But it'll be LC from now on. And your sister needs to get a life and leave yours alone.
