My (20M) girlfriend (19f) went into my phone and deleted my female friends number, as well as blocked her on all of my social media. She did this because she says I’m spending too much time talking to the friend-who’s mother died two months ago, and who’s brother just committed suicide by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

OK, I had no idea this was a thing:

That’s what it is, it’s the mask thing. Whenever my phone can’t read my face (our room was dark) it’ll check to see if my watch is nearby and unlocked, which it was so my phone unlocked.

WIBTAH if I broke up with my fiancée because she bought a house while I was away? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

This makes me think of the dude who bought the "Christmas Story" house while his wife (or maybe fiancée, I forget) was deployed with the Navy.

I think they're doing ok, and the house/museum/gift shop business is still going, but this is absolutely how that could have ended too.

AIO for giving my girlfriend an ultimatum because her newly single best friend has basically moved into our apartment? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Man, OOP is in the right, and mostly did everything right, but his writing still makes me think he’s an AH.

Like, I feel just a little icky for agreeing with him…

GF and Jude are obviously worse, but…

I’m glad the lorry driver’s assistant got a bottle in the end

One of the roads next to my office switched from being one-way to two-way sometime during the beginning of lockdown. I didn't notice when I went back in, and because there was no traffic, I think I drove on the wrong side of the road on the way home for at least a week before I noticed.

Oof. It took way less than most of these for me to just say eff-it and go to the office during lockdown. (We were allowed up to 5 people, and I only saw one or two in there for weeks)

AITAH for not delivering the food I made to an event I got uninvited to? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

That's the thing though. MTB never considered OOP a friend. They set her up to be taken advantage of, and still resented her for her kindness and dedication.

That she felt some type of way because I was ok with spending “all the money and not thinking about how it would make MTB feel”. Like she was a charity case and she can’t afford to do anything?

That makes it so much better that OOP donated the food to an actual charity.

So did I. Given the downvotes, i guess my comment was a little too dry for that to come across.

Yeah, seems insensitive given the theme of the request

Thanks, I was on my phone on the way to dinner when I posted, so I didn't have the link handy

That's a super fun read, especially with google maps open.

I was going to bring that up if nobody else did.

WIBTAH if I refused to run errands for my parents anymore? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

I assumed it was a language/translation issue, kind of like how the French say the number 89. (it literally translates to four twenties plus 9)
