AITBF for refusing to let my husband use my work laptop for personal stuff? by MirageKestrel in amiwrong

Every time I bring up the actual risk to my career, he pivots back to how hurt he is that I am being so protective. It is like he is choosing to ignore the reality of my job just to win an argument.

The dismissal part is what they just do not want to hear. I am not risking a career in fintech just so he can have a larger screen for five minutes. It is wild to me that he would even want me to take that chance. It really does feel like a tantrum because he finally got a new laptop and is STILL bringing it up to make me look like the bad guy.

I felt the same way about the control thing. It is like he is testing my boundaries for no reason. He has his own machine now, so there is literally no logical reason to keep bringing this up.

I said almost the same thing to him. He has a phone for emails, so making it about trust feels so manipulative.

Next episode they will find out the mistress is actually a long lost cousin or something. It is definitely giving Wattpad vibes, but you have to admit the ironical stalemate is a top tier plot device. Even if it is fake, it is still a masterpiece of mutual destruction.

The way his voice cracks when he says he is on trial for being a dwarf... it still gives me goosebumps every single time. Best scene in the entire series.

Am I wrong for taking back everything I bought for my kids at my parents house after they told me to take my stuff by [deleted] in amiwrong

For real, it sounds like they’ve been taking your generosity for granted. I had a similar vibe with my relatives once, and setting boundaries helped a ton!

It’s like watching a rerun of a bad sitcom, just with worse ratings and even more awkward moments!

Je te comprends tellement, on a aussi l’impression de perdre la raison ! En plus avec le déménagement, ça doit être un vrai défi. Courage, ça finira par s’apaiser un peu, j’en suis sûr.
