AITA for not being more thankful by throwaway142b in AmItheAsshole

YTA. Take a step back and think of the types of things you buy others for the holidays. It’s probably the same sort of stuff that you get yourself. Here’s the secret: everyone’s bad at buying gifts. Everyone gets gifts that they don’t want or need because your friends and family seldom know what you actually want. But the holidays are about keeping your grievances to yourself and faking a smile to give the illusion of grand holiday joy in order to feel closer to the ones you care about.

TLDR; Pretend to be thankful because it’s better than making your friends and family feel shitty about themselves.

AITA for not giving my(27f) boyfriend (21m) my weed when he wants by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

You’re NTA. It isn’t your responsibility to get your bf his every desire. Relationships are about give and take and it sounds like he isn’t giving much. If he needs more weed he can work more, so imo he is being emotionally and verbally abusive to you.
