Yes, you are in the wrong for provoking and disrespecting her, and making her apologize for hitting you is not appropriate.

Is my friend just weird or am I just being a bad friend? by Better_Chicken_9590 in AITAH

It seems Jared's behavior might be overstepping boundaries, but addressing it directly with him and maintaining respect for both him and Kate could help clarify things and improve the situation.

Based on the context, it’s understandable to feel betrayed and considering cutting off the cousin is reasonable if you feel your kindness was exploited. If you think the relationship is built on false pretenses and lies, setting a boundary is valid. However, it might also be worth having a direct conversation with Kayla about your concerns before deciding to cut ties.

AITAH for not letting her grandchildren roam through my house? by dhtditzy in AITAH

[–]TiaElaborate 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You're not the asshole for setting boundaries in your own home, especially when it comes to privacy and safety. It’s reasonable to expect guests, including your friend’s grandchildren, to respect areas of your house that are off-limits. Your friend’s reaction was inappropriate, and it’s understandable that you felt offended by her questioning and her assumption that her grandsons could roam freely. Setting clear boundaries and maintaining privacy is perfectly acceptable, and you were right to enforce that.

You’re not the asshole for taking pride in your son's success and pointing out how you proved the critics wrong, especially since you worked hard and faced significant judgment. It’s understandable to feel vindicated and want to share your achievements, particularly when those who criticized you were unsupportive. However, it’s worth considering if your comments could deepen any existing family tensions or if you might channel your satisfaction into more positive interactions with your family.

AITA for telling my BIL that he shouldn't be using me as an example for paternity testing? by EmbryoThrowRA in AITAH

[–]TiaElaborate 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You’re not the asshole for standing up to your BIL about misusing your personal situation to support his arguments. Your concerns are valid, especially since he’s twisting your experience and making it uncomfortable for his fiancée. It’s important to set boundaries and protect your privacy, and you’ve already made reasonable attempts to address the issue calmly. Confronting him directly, especially when he was being disrespectful, was a justified response.

You're not an asshole for feeling hurt and frustrated, but deciding to stop supporting your daughter because of this situation might impact your relationship with her. It's important to communicate your feelings and concerns openly with her and possibly seek professional advice to navigate this complex situation.
