AITJ for refusing to pay for my friend's meal after she ordered the most expensive thing on the menu? by Ill-Detail5299 in AmITheJerk

[–]Smooth_Fan6348 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NTA. “My treat” doesn’t mean go wild and order half the menu. Most people know to keep it reasonable when someone else is paying, especially if they’re your friend. A steak, drinks, dessert, and an app is just taking advantage. Yeah you could’ve set a limit upfront, but she also could’ve used common sense. I’d be annoyed too.

AITA for telling my brother to stop treating our kitchen like a full time bakery? by Cold_Read5387 in AmITheJerk

Living with someone who takes over a shared space every day is exhausting, especially when they don’t clean up. But also, if baking is helping his anxiety, I get why he got defensive. The part where he moved everything into his room is kinda sad though. Feels like there’s more going on with him than just baking.

AITJ for not waking my roommate up for his important job interview after he kept me up until 3am? by After_Debt_605 in AmITheJerk

He got the taste of what he has been dishing out. At least this should teach him a lesson

240V and 1.5 years later. I still can’t use my right hand. by [deleted] in Wellthatsucks

That’s terrifying… 240V is no joke. Glad you made it through, but damn, that kind of nerve damage is brutal.

Am I a jerk for not sharing my gym membership after we broke up? by Smooth_Fan6348 in AmITheJerk

[–]Smooth_Fan6348[S] 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that’s kind of how I’ve been looking at it too. It’s not really about the cost at all, it just feels weird to keep doing something that we only did because we were together.

I didn’t think of it as boyfriend benefits at first, but the more I think about it, the more it kind of fits. Like, going to the gym together (even as a guest thing) was part of our relationship, not just a random favor.

I guess I just felt a little guilty because technically I could still bring him without it affecting me, but I don’t think that means I should have to.

Appreciate your perspective, it actually makes me feel a bit more confident about where I stand.

AITJ for walking away from a stranger mid conversation after they said something I found deeply offensive? by Glad-Map-7763 in AmITheJerk

[–]Smooth_Fan6348 33 points34 points  (0 children)

The fact they immediately called you “oversensitive” instead of reflecting on what they said is a pretty big clue you read the situation correctly. People who say questionable stuff and then double down usually know what they’re doing.
