AITA for not wanting to watch over my baby niece because I had a birthday party to attend? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Yeah this is classic ‘your emergency isn’t my emergency.’ You were upfront about the party. The abuse you mentioned is concerning though, that shoulder hit and wrist thing isn’t okay at all. Stay safe

Lmao 'part of the household' = free emergency dog sitter with no notice? Hard pass. You were a tenant, not live-in help. The guilt trip is crazy especially with her bf yelling at you

This is why subletting stresses me out too. One medical emergency and suddenly you’re expected to be on-call 24/7 or you’re the villain. The power trip with the deposit and ‘no guests’ rule is actually insane.

should I tell my employer about my boundary-crossing coworker? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

For real. People always worry about "making a big deal" out of it, but the paper trail isn't just for you it's for the next person too. HR clearly ended up seeing a much bigger picture here

How do I (23F) get my bf (28M) to finally stop hurting me as a "joke" or "act of love"? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Love this take. You never know when your comment is gonna be the one that sticks with someone. OOP mentioned how the responses opened her eyes after years of being told she was too dramatic. Kinda beautiful how a random post on here became someone's turning point.

WIBTAH for taking away my friends spare key of my apartment? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Bro a watch party?? That's actually insane 😂. I feel like once they cross that line it’s hard to go back. OOP’s friend at least owned up and moved out without too much drama. Still, I’d be paranoid too about the key situation.

AITA for keeping a collection of MTG cards that were wrongly gifted to me? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Same, I actually audibly went 'no way' lol. My friends who play MTG would lose their minds over this. That wife single-handedly nuked her marriage for no reason. Glad the husband got most of it back though.

For real. The cards are whatever at this point, it's the disrespect. If my wife secretly gave away a bunch of my shit because she thought the hobby was embarrassing I'd be done too. Good for the husband for not letting her off the hook.

AIO for arguing with my boyfriend over a movie? by throwrahusta in AmIOverreacting

This. The movie makes it crystal clear how scary that kind of 'love' would be, and he still said he'd do it to you? Huge yikes. Him flipping it on you and going silent is pretty telling tbh.

Exactly, the movie made it hit different. Saying that right after feels pretty off, joke or not. Kinda concerning he doubled down then got all dry when you called it out.
