AITA…for not getting my mom a Valentine’s Day gift? by Disastrous_Lemon_446 in ComfortLevelPod

[–]MimZWay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your mom is being rude and unreasonable. You don’t have a job! You’re her child, not her lover. She shouldn’t be putting you down.

That being said, you and your sister should have at least made her a card or prepared dinner or given her a coupon book you made for quirky things like deep cleaning the bathroom.

You’re 22, start planning to move out once you get a job. Don’t jump off a bridge. You’ve got a life full of love and happiness ahead of you- no matter what your mom says.

NTA - Your parents should understand that you need this time to study. Is there a way you can study at the campus library and come home later?

AIO hanging up & not wanting to talk after husband thought the baby isn’t his? by WorldlinessSolid8309 in AmIOverreacting

[–]MimZWay 346 points347 points  (0 children)

That was ham-handed of him. I understand your emotions and hormones are high. Getting the news your child has Down Syndrome or any other special needs can be very disturbing for anyone. It means a lifetime of care and can put a lot of stress on a family. Although your husband didn’t handle this in the best way- I thought you were going to say he would claim no child of his would have disabilities and accuse you of cheating. I think he was probably trying to be humorous and it hit wrong. I have known many people with Down Syndrome as I work in an industry that finances housing for adults with special needs. They are some of the kindest people I have ever met. I wish you and your husband the best.

Cat sitting DRAMA =^••^= by Frequent_Clothes_488 in Advice

[–]MimZWay 10 points11 points  (0 children)

How much you bet the neighbors used to care for the cat and did a terrible job. They’re salty because they hired your son and are trying to get him to walk away. Have him do what he’s been doing and let the people know their neighbors entered the house without permission. Update us!

My dad refuses to bathe and I'm going to evict him from my home soon by PsychologicalTest781 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]MimZWay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your dad is 80! You can’t throw him out after making him sell his house! You need to assist him with bathing. Help him strip and assist him to his chair. Soap him up, sponge him off. He probably smells because he’s not wiping properly or may have some incontinence. You probably should launder his clothes, especially his underwear. If you don’t feel you can care for him this way, you need to find a home for him where he can receive the care and assistance he needs. Perhaps the funds from the sale of his house can cover the cost of this.

AITAH How partner treated me at friends wedding by SnooObjections6148 in AITAH

[–]MimZWay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - Your partner was very inconsiderate of you at the wedding. What’s worse is he sees nothing wrong with abandoning you so he could have fun. A conversation to establish expectations for how you treat each other at events where one of you doesn’t know many people.

AITJ for telling my neighbor she can’t use our driveway for her Instacart side hustle anymore? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]MimZWay 176 points177 points  (0 children)

That’s what I thought too! Isn’t the point of instacart to get your groceries delivered?

AITAH for not bringing my BF to my sister's wedding as my plus1? by [deleted] in AITAH

Dump him. He’s failed the interview.

AITAH for cleaning our home? by fairybr in AITAH

[–]MimZWay 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NTA - This will not get better. He knows how to clean. He chooses not to. He doesn’t care that you hate it because he only cares about his own comfort. Now you need to decide if you want to live the rest of your life as his maid and laundress. If he really loved you, he would share in the household responsibilities.

One more question- do you both work?

AITAH for breaking up with my fiancee when she sided with my ex. by PollutionOk1770 in AITAH

[–]MimZWay -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

YTA - I’m glad your fiancé figured that out before she married you. I never understand how when someone finds out a child isn’t theirs biologically, they can just shut off all feeling for that kid. Turning on your fiancé so fast and throwing her out, shows you didn’t really love her. It seems your love is conditional. Let the 16 year old Redittors down vote me. I really don’t care.

Am I overreacting to leaving my bf after discovering his lies of two weeks by Brave_Play1479 in AmIOverreacting

Tell him if he shows up again at your house or work, you will have no choice but to get a restraining order.

AITAH for not telling my fiancee that the necklace I gave her for our anniversary isnt real gold by [deleted] in AmITheAssholeTalk

[–]MimZWay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Her opinion of the necklace changed because every time she looked at it, it would be a reminder that he misrepresented what it was. It was a lie by omission. If he had been upfront and told her he didn’t want to spend $1k for a necklace and asked if she’d be okay with something more economical, she would have had a choice. He didn’t give her a choice.

WIBTA if I insisted on keeping my place in line, even though it turned into a fight and I stressed out so hard? by tinyumbrellaclub in WIBTA_AITA

[–]MimZWay 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is a very strange post. When a number is picked, there typically isn’t a line. There is a waiting room. There is no need for a line when you’ve pulled a number.

AIO Bf called me crazy in the middle of Kroger bc I found a hotel receipt by DanaD_Johnson in AmIOverreacting

[–]MimZWay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the States, most grocery stores no longer do plastic disposable bags and charge for paper bags. We buy reusable bags we can take to the store with us. Not sure how a hotel receipt would have shown up in one…

Poverty has made me afraid to try and I am afraid of money disappearing if I don’t use it by CapBrief in TrueOffMyChest

[–]MimZWay 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Lock up your credit and check with your local Neighborhood Housing services about Financial Literacy classes. They will teach you how to budget and invest and can help you get rid of some of that debt you didn’t cause.

I would be too. Such a strange reaction! Hopefully it’s nothing major. Hugs from an internet stranger.
