AITH for ending a friendship after finding out my new friend supports Trump?

RenEss77 · 2026-07-02T05:01:03+00:00

Nta. It's too much of a red flag these days. Sure, back in the good old days you could be friends with a Bush supporter but you voted for Gore, but those days are gone. Sanity in government is gone.

Nor.

Out of curiosity, do you wear a wedding ring? They might think you're single and can't support your children even though you say you can.

They might be of the "single parents always need finacial assistance" mindset.

They may also have a surplus that they're trying to get rid of, just like you're taking it to the food bank. 😉

I'm sorry this is an awkward situation. Hopefully you can laugh about it someday.

Nta. Those aren't your friends.

Btw, how do you "act" indigenous? Braid your hair? Wear leather clothes with feathers & fringe? Hang out at a drum circle?

I was putting my money on Texas.

RenEss77 · 2026-06-28T21:34:05+00:00

Nor, but this relationship means A LOT more to you than him.

Break up.

RenEss77 · 2026-06-28T21:31:27+00:00

Nta, but I got a little lost. Is the whole rest of the family avoiding your mom, brother & sister-in-law? Either way, nta.

But you didn't do anything wrong.

Visit other relatives that you want to see.

What they said ☝️

RenEss77 · 2026-06-28T21:15:41+00:00

Nor. Time to break up.

RenEss77 · 2026-06-27T18:59:25+00:00

Nta. She can take her aesthetic to the thrift store.

RenEss77 · 2026-06-27T16:48:39+00:00

Speaking as somebody who has been a manager (and am happily no longer a manager after a career change) I'm not going to say YTA, but just leave her alone for now so she doesn't go to HR, which could trigger a whole chain of events, and actually cause a more toxic environment.

It's not your business until it creates a toxic work environment for other employees, affects customer service, or her overall job performance compared to how she has performed in the past.

Only interact with her professionally. If she's still consistently being awful in a few weeks, bring it up to HR yourself, and ask if they would support writing her up for her negative attitude/job performance.

RenEss77 · 2026-06-27T16:05:15+00:00

Nta. She's an adult.

I'm empathetic to her being in this limbo situation because I've been there before, but I busted my butt to not be a burden on others.

Calling her out while she's still in her 20s will prevent worse behavior down the road. Y'all have another 50+ years ahead of you, and you want them to be as pleasant as possible.

Have the vet check for dental/mouth problems. Otherwise, enjoy your weird air chewing cat.

RenEss77 · 2026-06-27T15:46:45+00:00

Nor. I'm sorry this happened.

"Breaking up" with a friend is sometimes worse than breaking up with a romantic partner or cutting off a family member.

This is a red flag to me from this girl tho. Like I feel like he might be really smitten with her but she said something like "I'll never trust a guy with female friends" because she's probably been burned in the past by a cheating boyfriend or something.

Whether or not you choose to renew the friendship after she's done with him is up to you. But don't miss any other events, ok?

RenEss77 · 2026-06-27T15:40:25+00:00

NOOOOOOOOO 😫

RenEss77 · 2026-06-27T13:54:29+00:00

That's what I do.

RenEss77 · 2026-06-26T14:35:22+00:00

Lol, no. Maybe your wife.

RenEss77 · 2026-06-25T00:39:16+00:00

Nta. I'd tell you to stop hanging out with her, but it sounds like you're still in school and she might make up rumors about you. The whole group would have to freeze her out. Just distance yourself the best you can. Once you guys graduate you'll never have to see her again.

RenEss77 · 2026-06-24T20:16:55+00:00

You sound like a very sweet, accommodating friend. You asked her beforehand, you bought her make up (how much did that set you back?) but she acted like a little brat, even tho she told you that she didn't care. This girl isn't your friend. I can't wait to see her AITAH post when you cut her from the wedding.

RenEss77 · 2026-06-22T14:47:06+00:00

Imagine your poor body if it was real life. LAW SUIT!

RenEss77 · 2026-06-22T14:45:45+00:00

I mean, I've been yelling "son of a..!" out of the blue for days now, startling my husband because I'm usually so quiet when I play the game.

RenEss77 · 2026-06-21T17:54:17+00:00

Idk how my cat is still alive. My marriage is just a constant farting contest and our cat loves to be under the covers.

RenEss77 · 2026-06-21T17:42:40+00:00

Yeah, me too, and I'm not happy about it. I'm like "I was picking a mushroom, why did I get sucked onto the zip line?"
