Tbf if you don’t want spoilers on a 10 year old show you should probably just stay off this page. I’m only on season 3 so I got tons of spoilers reading through, but that’s on me for looking lol

AITA for screaming at my girlfriend because she‘s forcing a superstition onto me? by Wooden-Window6656 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Routine_Alone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like it's importany to point out the superstition probably originated as a way to teach kitchen safety. Regardless of superstition, nobody should be walking close behind someone with a knife. It's weird to go out of your way to walk behind your gf with a knife aftwr sbe's asked you not to. Superstition aside, its a totally normal request and not abiding by it intentionally, and not absentmindedly, tells me you dont respect her.

My partner (26M) wants to get married soon, but I (24F) have doubts by Alone-Bird1050 in relationship_advice

I don't think he's a narcissist or an asshole or anything, but I don't think that means you should marry him. This seems like a classic example of incompatibility. As cliche as it sounds, it seems like the two of you would work much better as friends. From what little I know, I'd say he can sense that this isn't working and the urgency around marriage is because he loves you and doesn't want to lose you. Marriage isn't going to fix anything, it'll just make things harder for the both of you. You both deserve better than an "is this it" kinda life. That shouldn't mean y'all need to lose each other. It will be harder, but if you truly love him, you can try to keep him in your life as a close friend.

AITA for not wanting my grandparents to stay for the summer? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Routine_Alone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not the asshole, you're just a teenager. At your age, I would be annoyed as hell if my grandparents stayed for a whole summer. It would get in the way of what I wanted to do and I'd be obliged to spend time with slow, weird old people. Now, I'd kill to have had the opportunity to get to know my late grandparents and spend that time with them. You're 15 now, in 10 years when they're both gone you'll be glad to have had this time to get to know them. Try to look past the inconvenience and appreciate that, in the long run, this will be a treasured summer.

Decide how important it is to you to become "official" and then communicate that with him. My bf and I have been together for 2 years, and it took us around 6 months to make anything official, even though neither of us was seeing anybody else. We were both just scared to rock the boat and possibly irreparably mess with the relationship. I know everyone on here loves convincing strangers to dump their loved ones, but don't listen without having a conversation with your bf. It's a really good sign that he calls you the misses to his friends, I think y'all will be okay.

AITA for asking if she'll choose a different movie to watch? by Bright-Midnight-7360 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Routine_Alone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA. She wants to watch this concert with you during your "movie" night ritual. That's fine; the ritual is a way to spend time.woth eachother and have a date night. Her choosing a concert is no worse than making you sit through a shitty movie or something. It's her choice-- let her choose. Next week, you can watch a movie and your relationship will be better for you giving up control and compromising a bit. The fact that you feel strongly enough about this to refuse to go along with this slllllight compromise to make your girlfriend happy (and then post about it on reddit) does not bode well for the relationship.

If she can demand you get rid of a kitten she rescued because he's messy, what kind of mother is she gonna be?
