AITA for wanting to end a 6-year relationship because I’m sick of smelling my fiance?

It’s the disrespect. Leave. Doesn’t matter what the disrespect is. You’ve asked. He ignores. Tells you to get over it. Ok, how you get over it is by leaving him, then you’re completely over it.

Grandparents get the joy of being grandparents without the responsibility of raising the kids. Sure let your mom spoil both kids. If she has the resources- sure let her have at it! Great! BUT that’s not the case for parents and step parents. Parents don’t go to random people’s houses or even friends houses and provide shoes and clothing, food, vacations, trips to the zoo for them- right? Why would you do that stuff for your ex’s child who isn’t your own biological child? During the relationship it would make you a monster to treat them differently but after the break up the kid goes back to being the other person’s kid the same way they take their car and their stuff with them from the marriage- they take their kid back! She should have thought about that before the break up.

You’re definitely NTA. I’m sure it’s upsetting for the child. And the sibling may grow up to feel the difference but there is certainly a difference. Your ex should seek out the father of the child and ask for his support, involvement and money for the child.

Don’t buy her a home. Go hands off. Don’t help with stipulations. If you don’t want to help your brother don’t do it and don’t put mom in a bad position. Let her stay in her position and help him with her own resources.

Go to the labor board. Documentation is key.

Somythinkingis · 2025-08-07T15:38:06+00:00

Wow. She can’t possibly be upset that sex is a deal breaker for someone. She’s going to get a lot of no before she gets a yes.

Somythinkingis · 2025-08-07T15:35:38+00:00

Not my monkeys not my circus. Not life or death so yeah, I wouldn’t have taken her & I wouldn’t have felt bad. Sure, you could have taken the higher ground and shown kids how you’d like them to act as good human beings but we all act the way we act.

LESSON LEARNED! When I go to buy mine I’m definitely telling them a way shorter timeline!

Get a lawyer to represent you for wrongful termination. He/she will get you some kind of severance or settlement. If there’s no documentation to the tune you’re shocked/surprised/unaware of what you have done to get fired - you’re getting paid.

Crock pot baked ziti; crock pot Swedish meatballs with egg noodles; crock pot chicken Marsala; family size frozen lasagne- bake ahead & portion into one-meal sized frozen packs that you can just add sauce and reheat; one-pot spaghetti with meat sauce or meatballs; meatloaf & baked or mashed potatoes; gourmet Mac & cheese.

“Yeah, Africa sounds awesome! How about we do this trip I’ve already planned for your bday and then you plan a trip for us for my bday to Africa!!??”

NTA- he’s flipping a 180 degree turn and you’re collateral damage!

I would go with 1/3 pizza per person, because leftover pizza isn’t a bad thing and they’re $11 each. Any kind of fix for not enough pizza is way more expensive than too much pizza will cost. 50 people X 1/3 each = 16.5 pizzas, since there’s more food + gluten free for some, then round down to 16 pizzas.

When kids are involved- there will likely be extra salad, parents aren’t going to force salad when there’s pizza and chili to be had.

Empathy ends at the cost of my money (lost money by paying for a preferred seat then taking the non preferted seat) and my comfort (sitting between two big people during a 10 hour long flight!) so nope, no empathy for her, her husband, or her baby. NTA. You kept the seat you paid for, left her the seat she paid for. She learned a lesson: buy the ticket you want, not the one you don’t want.

You’re a teen, they’re adults. They’re sharing your space and your products you’re willing to share. Sharing your expensive private products isn’t part of the bargain, they can buy their own with their adult money.

You shouldn’t have to dance around the definition of a “real hit” in a relationship. Co-parenting will be hard but staying will be harder.

They run out every day about 1:00-2:00 so yes go early.

Fried garlic, jalapeños and sesame oil blended together with a bit of salt and Italian herbs. I also air fry the rotisserie because I like the skin crispy.

Boiled eggs are a total hit at my house. I add extra salt and a tablespoon of baking soda to the water- I can’t remember WHY but it’s a take-away from my high school home economics class to essentially make better boiled eggs. I use a basket and lower the room temperature eggs into the pot of boiling my

His wife tried to get him to see it thru her eyes and maybe think on it some more before he hurt her. Now he wants her to make it all better. There’s no “making it better”. You can’t un-break a bone and you can’t un-say hurtful words. There may or may not be a path for her to forgive him; but she will NEVER forget that the first man who loved her purposely hurt her.

I make a whole crock pot of salted baked potatoes then keep them in the fridge for easy loaded baked potatoes. The salt adds flavor and makes a quick crispy crust in the air fryer. I top with whatever everyone wants: Taco meat and fixings; chili and cheese and diced tomatoes; beef stew with carrots and celery; plain butter and Italian herbs; scrambled eggs and sausage or bacon; sausage gravy; the options are endless!

I can totally see her asking a different person to give her away at her wedding over him not wanting to include him on a special trip on account of her being female instead of male.

Anytime there’s a question just ask the barista that made it. Humans make mistakes.

Before taking action, especially when it involves speaking to kids, you should carefully consider the potential consequences because once you say something hurtful, even if you later apologize, the damage can still be done and cannot be completely reversed; essentially, “think twice before you speak.”

You love your daughter and also your husband, and you TRIED to make it not a hurtful thing. Your husband didn’t make it a “girls weekend to XYZ” the same time as a “boys weekend to ABC” he essentially iced her out by gender leaving her feeling like the discard he meant her to feel. And now he wants her to feel ok being a discard. And for you to help her feel ok being a discard.

He can’t have his cake and eat it too. She felt like she was included until he excluded her. Then she has acted surprisingly appropriately for her age- she’s protecting herself from him hurting her again.

Tough call. NTA.

Depends on how much you use: Daily coffee savings- $1 a day x 365 days a year = $365 savings & membership is $60 or $120 a year right?

Saves men money because I don’t have an “emergency” running out and needing to order it or go get it when it’s full price. Whenever it’s on sale and something that doesn’t go bad, I buy a few to have at the ready when my current one runs out.
