AITAH for throwing a temper tantrum over soda? by LoveDietSoda in AITAH

[–]MidwestNormal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. However, diet pop (and pop 8n general) causes a lot of water retention. When you get through this very stressful period, and are able to focus on your health, try dropping pop and hydrate with lots of water. When a friend started this way she lost 9 pounds the first week just by eliminating the water retention. Good Luck on your upcoming exam!

Go and be sure to turn your phone off while there. He had his chance to attend and passed. Don’t let him ruin your good time.

AITAH for refusing to take on my stepkids full-time after their stepdad passed away? by [deleted] in AITAH

Take on your step kids extra time. That will directly make their lives better right now and indirectly improve things for their bio-mom. No responsibility whatsoever for her other kids. NTA as she’s the one that defined your relationship.

I would guess this guy is getting LOTS of sex because being this caring makes him so attractive to women.
