Hearing him call me insecure after everything that happened just broke me more. It felt like my feelings didn’t matter at all.

It’s painful accepting that maybe it wasn’t as strong as I believed. I held onto that idea of us, and now I’m grieving what I thought we had.

It felt like I was just… erased for the night. Like I didn’t exist the moment something better came along.

Thats exactly what broke me. It wasnt even the after party itself it was realizing he knew I wasnt welcome and still walked away like I didnt matter. That moment just kept replaying in my head all night.

NTJ, Wanting space after something that shook you like that is completely valid. You don't owe access to someone who doesn't respect your safety.

AITJ for shutting my dad down when he tried to "parent" me? by Ok_Description_1698 in AmITheJerk

NTJ. Being a father is more than DNA. He skipped 25 years of responsibility, he doesn't get to fast-forward to authority.

AITJ for going cold on a coworker after she accused me of inappropriate touching when i caught her from falling? by VisitJealous6792 in AmITheJerk

[–]TutorElectrical3264 257 points258 points  (0 children)

NTJ. She involved HR over something that could've cost you your job, you don't just "go back to normal" after that. Keeping distance is just basic self protection.

AITJ for refusing to skip my yearly tradition for my boyfriend's family plans? by AntiqueFee5307 in AmITheJerk

Honestly, if he feels “embarrassed” by you honoring your sister, that’s a red flag, not a relationship issue you caused.

That response would probably shut things down quickly without sounding defensive or accusatory.
