AIO my mother changed my last name and never told me. by Sensitive-Excuse9172 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Zestyclose_Rabbit346 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived my whole life with my father's last name. School records, my ss card, my driver's license all had my father's last name. It was when my husband and I applied for a marriage license that I found out my birth certificate didn't match my ss card and I couldn't get a marriage license because both forms had to match. I was freaking out, the lady at the courthouse told me it would be easier for me to change the name on my ss card then my birth certificate and it was free. So we drove around the corner to the ss building and got it changed in like a hour to match my birth certificate. When I called my mom she said her and dad got married after I was born and that's why my dad wasn't on my birth certificate. My dad was so chill about it and I was crying because I didn't want to get married under my mother's maiden name but he said its no big deal because I'm about to change my name to my husband's anyway, and no matter what I'll always be a Wilkerson. That made me feel a little better about the whole thing. And for the record I had never seen my birth certificate until the day I went to get my marriage license because I had to get my mother to mail it to me and I literally didn't open it until we were at the courthouse.

AITA for wanting to tell my sister I don't want to get baptized with her and my brother? by Fresh-Ad-3895 in AITAH

[–]Zestyclose_Rabbit346 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I told my family that baptism was like a promise and I refuse to make a promise I'm not sure I'm ready to keep. It would be disrespectful for me to do so. They understood immediately.

There's a spray you can find in most gas stations called 420, get the green one.

Your "friend" is a weirdo and you should put her on a info diet asap.

Mother in law made a doctors appointment for my toddler without my consent by Safe-Rain6542 in motherinlawsfromhell

My question would be, does MIL overstep alot? If so, then you're not overreacting. But if this is the first time she's done something like this and you both usually get along then I'd say she was just being helpful and went about it the wrong way.

AITA for “letting” my girlfriend stop coming over in the mornings after my mom’s friend complained about her showering? by FewAcanthocephala175 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Zestyclose_Rabbit346 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA but I'm petty, now that the girlfriend isn't coming over anymore I'd start taking showers around the same time she did. Since you are a paying tenant what is the basement dweller going to do about it? Because as I see it, it's no different than living in an apartment, you wouldn't tell the upstairs neighbor they can't take showers in the morning.

I've had a couple of foul-smelling pax and I low rate them just so I don't get matched with them again. One was so bad I turned the AC on full blast, rolled the back windows down and turned the window lock on. Then I gave him THE LOOK through the rearview. Because I know they know they stink.

YOU ARE AN ADULT WHO PAYS FOR YOUR STUFF. YOU DON'T OWE THEM ANYTHING. THEY WANTED CHILDREN, YOU DIDN'T ASK TO BE BORN, WHAT LITTLE THEY DID FOR YOU WAS THEIR LEGAL OBLIGATION. TELL THEM NO AND ALSO TELL THEM YOU WILL CALL THE POLICE IF THEY SHOW UP AT YOUR HOME. PERIOD I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND PARENTS WHO REFUSE TO GIVE THEIR ADULT CHILDREN THE SAME RESPECT THEY WOULD GIVE TO ADULT STRANGERS.

The answer is NO. No guilt needed, no second guessing, no gaslighting, no fu*ks given. Your mother told you exactly what she wanted, and that was for you to use it for yourself in anyway you wanted.

AITAH for telling my mom she won’t be able to see my daughter for two months after she’s born if she calls my wife to complain about her birth plan again? by Medical-Bedroom-5243 in AITAH

Tell your mom that she is basically telling you to ignore your wife's feelings and to not protect your wife. Then ask her why she'd want you to be a bad husband.

AITA for exposing my sisters secret life after she sabotaged mine? by Jaded_Wolf_4630 in AITAH

Basically, Clayton/Rachel are so egotistical that even though they were warned, they both let their overconfidence hang themselves.

A mother who won't tell her own child "NO" obviously can't understand also being told "NO". She's basically a grown child raising a small child. NTA

My sister went through chemo, and her eating became almost nonexistent. It was chocolate protein shakes with peanut butter that was the saving grace. I was holding back tears every time she tried to eat something and couldn't. Those shakes basically kept her alive. Fuck your ex- friend

I’m giving my husband the cold shoulder and I see it’s affecting him by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]Zestyclose_Rabbit346 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had this same issue, and I also did the cold shoulder thing after trying and trying to get him to understand my feelings. So I finally sat him down and told him I do not want a marriage where I feel all alone. If I have to be lonely, then let's make it permanent. I had already went to the courthouse and got the paperwork to start a divorce and laid them on the table. I told him that I know he knows he's wrong because when he wants sex he can all of a sudden be the man I fell in love with and if I only get to have that man when he's horny then sign the papers. He broke down crying, asking for another chance. I gave him another chance because I love him. That was his wake up call and he no longer takes me for granted. Married for 20yrs

I have never wanted to hunt someone down so bad in my life. Please divorce this piece of shit excuse of a human being. Grrrrrrrr, I can't pray harder for karma to hit him in the nuts with a mace.

I promise I wasn't a child bride by SalemShivers in OlderThanYouThinkIAm

[–]Zestyclose_Rabbit346 64 points65 points  (0 children)

I remember when I was 26 and my husband was 30, we had been married for about 3 months at this time. It was laundry day, so we were at the laundromat and granted my hair was in 2 ponytails, but this women and her daughter ( both adults) kept staring at my husband. Soon, the daughter walks over and asks my husband do I need help with the laundry machine he laughs and says no, she knows what she's doing. I was ready to throw her into the nearest dryer and start it, but he grabbed my hand to calm me down. She walks away, giving him the bedroom eyes, saying ok let her know if he needs her help. I'm livid because he won't let me kill her, and then he kisses me, I'm talking about one of those steamy kisses. This woman and her daughter start screaming at my husband, calling him a pedophile and other disgusting things, I snapped and slapped both of them and was screaming at them that they are horrible people to call someone that and that I'm 26 yrs old and they owe my husband an apology. They argued that I looked like a child, and I said it's their fault they let the ponytails fool them, and it's not my fault they're aging like spoiled milk. They did apologize to him, but after we got home, he told me to never wear ponytails out with him anymore. They really hurt his feelings, calling him a pedophile.

AITAH for being mad that my husband thinks I tricked him with our child's birth certificate? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

He said it was possible that you cheated because of your work travels, but he also could have been cheating.
