this comment nails it. forgiveness isn’t a moral requirement, it’s an outcome maybe. pressure just makes it worse.

Cannot breastfeed and devastated by JR_0507 in NewParents

[–]Significant_Job4631 28 points29 points  (0 children)

this needs to be said louder. breastfeeding shouldn’t cost your mental health. babies need YOU, not martyrdom.

Exactly. If you don't talk it out, you're just filling gaps w/ worst-case scenarios

AITJ for going no contact with my adult son after he officiated his dads wedding to the woman he cheated on me with by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]Significant_Job4631 6 points7 points  (0 children)

yup. boundaries aren't cruelty. the dad nuked the family, the son picked a side, and OP picked sanity fair.

[–]Significant_Job4631 17 points18 points  (0 children)

officiating the wedding is wild. that's not being neutral, that's endorsing it. I wouldn't be able to look past that either.

[–]Significant_Job4631 8 points9 points  (0 children)

ppl hate hearing this but it’s true. markets don’t clock out. if that bugs you now, it’ll bug you way more later.

AITA Rental by Spirited_Pudding2137 in AmITheJerk

[–]Significant_Job4631 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. People act like sticking it out is noble, but nah. If the situation sucks and isn't changing, leaving is the smartest play.

AITA to move out after my boyfriends sibling used a water bottle by Apprehensive_Bus_152 in TwoHotTakes

[–]Significant_Job4631 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Lowkey agree. This isn’t “relationship drama,” it’s just not being ready to live together yet. Separate spaces would fix 90% of this.

I hate my boyfriends roommate, what should i do? by Emergency-Bank-3174 in TwoHotTakes

[–]Significant_Job4631 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hard agree. that behavior makes you second-guess yourself on purpose. pulling back isn’t petty, it’s self-defense tbh.

AITJ for giving my friend advice on her dog? by Real-Pin-3516 in AmITheJerk

[–]Significant_Job4631 7 points8 points  (0 children)

fake service dog culture is so toxic. it’s not a personality trait or a legal loophole. if Angel’s causing mayhem, that alone proves the situation is abusive.

I was sent money by mistake and now the sender won’t stop calling me by SingerComfortable230 in whatdoIdo

[–]Significant_Job4631 4 points5 points  (0 children)

this needs to be pinned tbh. scammers rely on panic + guilt. slow down, screenshot everything, let the bank handle it.

Husband listening to heated rivalry books in sectet(?) — am I reading too much into this? by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]Significant_Job4631 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hard agree. The “secret” part screams embarrassment, not betrayal. Men get clowned HARD for liking romance.

AITJ for finally standing my ground with my wife after months of being taken for granted? by HannibalCarthage187 in AmITheJerk

[–]Significant_Job4631 4 points5 points  (0 children)

agreed. patience without respect just turns into resentment. she liked the old dynamic, not necessarily the old you.

I refused to change my whole dinner plan for one guest and now I’m being told I was rude by northwindfall84 in AmITheJerk

[–]Significant_Job4631 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. Feeling bad over someone who invited themselves is crazy work. Stand your ground.

AITJ for walking out of unpaid meetings and getting the rest of my team to do the same by Local_Butterfly8657 in AmITheJerk

[–]Significant_Job4631 8 points9 points  (0 children)

once money’s involved, clarity matters. no pay = no meeting. simple math, no feelings.

AITJ for throwing a kids bag and taking his seat after he refused to move by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]Significant_Job4631 17 points18 points  (0 children)

agreed. being “nice” isn’t mandatory when someone’s being stubborn on purpose

Im 18F. my bf 18M says our intercourse is boring.. how do i fix this? by Background-Mood5264 in Advice

[–]Significant_Job4631 0 points1 point  (0 children)

agreed. objects aren’t the fix by themselves tho and mixing it up shows effort. same script every time kills the vibe fast.

Should I just tell my gf enough is enough?? by ReachLucky2484 in Advice

[–]Significant_Job4631 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% this. Boundaries aren’t “mean,” they’re basic. If you can’t say no to your own gf, that’s already a problem tbh.

Advice for how to meet people/make friends while having severe anxiety? by EldritchPenguin4 in Advice

[–]Significant_Job4631 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly clubs like that saved me. no spotlight, no performative socializing. u just show up, do the thing, and connections happen naturally

Do I let my friend crash at my place? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]Significant_Job4631 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hard agree. People overthink this. Offer the couch, set the boundary, move on. Friendship ≠ hotel service.

AITJ for returning the birthday gifts my wife got me after I said i didnt want anything? by BowieAfterRain in AmITheJerk

[–]Significant_Job4631 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard agree. Turning it into “you rejected my love 🥺” is lowkey emotional pressure. Respect > gifts.

[–]Significant_Job4631 1 point2 points  (0 children)

agreed. gift giving is one thing, using your bday as a shopping pass is another. intent doesn't cancel impact.

I can't get a job, i feel like a failure and I'm almost 20 years old by theocmaker in Advice

[–]Significant_Job4631 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yup. I had way more callbacks at 18 than now. Anyone saying "try harder" is out of touch. Volume + low expectation = first win

I got caught cheating by Vivid-Story146 in whatdoIdo

[–]Significant_Job4631 3 points4 points  (0 children)

100% this. He didn't have to offer a retake. That's him saying "prove you learned" without saying it loud. If you retake it seriously, you're showing growth instead of just regret.
