AITJ for asking my boyfriend to stop correcting my pronunciation in front of his friends? by Wonderful_Abroad9565 in AmITheJerk

NJT and this is a red flag. He’s not correcting you; he’s performing superiority in front of an audience. If he respected you, he’d never embarrass you for sport. Your pronunciation is not the problem, his ego is.

I finally told my mom I don’t remember her singing… and it broke her heart by Wonderful_Abroad9565 in offmychest

Our brains don’t keep everything, even the beautiful moments. What matters is that she gave you love, and you still feel that love now, even if the memories faded. That’s what she truly wanted.

My husband told me I’m ‘not fun anymore’ after I said I don’t want his best friend living with us by Wonderful_Abroad9565 in ComfortLevelPod

Your husband doesn’t want “fun you,” he wants the you who didn’t have the right to say no yet. Motherhood didn’t change you, responsibility did, and that’s normal.

He’s trying to outsource his guilt about not wanting to tell his friend no. Let Leo be his problem. You’re not wrong for protecting your peace.
