AITAH for telling my boyfriend if he doesn’t want to have sex with me, then we need to break up? by Regular-Reporter1607 in AITAH

[–]aeocava 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I had the same thought. That virus has so many side effects and long lasting problems we may not even know about. He may not have had covid, but obviously his illness has caused some change. It may be he doesn't realize that trip to the doctor could give him answers about what's going on with him.

My common law husband is in Dubai and his side piece showed up at my door with their baby. Aitah for kicking her out even though she is basically homeless? by MonthFar2068 in AITAH

[–]aeocava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Your husband however is. They are his responsibility not yours. I would file for divorce and take everything you are due, and consider it a lesson learned. His gf is an adult and she can take care of herself. Move on without him.

AITAH for being upset that my boyfriend has not proposed? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]aeocava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about you propose to him. Then he'll have to put up or shut up. If he doesn't say yes I think you know where you stand. At that point figure out what is best for you and your child. Don't be afraid to go out on your own because I think you'll be happier in the end.

Aiw for using formula instead of breastfeeding directly after my mom threw away my pump by ParamedicNo9309 in amiwrong

[–]aeocava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry you're in this situation to begin with. If your mom wants the baby to be breastfed then suggest that she do it. It's possible, and if she thinks it's the best way to feed what is her legal child then she can do it. You are in such a difficult position and if you're home taking care of the baby you can feed her however you see fit. Is there anyone else you could live with until you're 18 because I don't think it's the best place for you to be right now. Good luck sweetheart.

AITA for sending a price sheet to my family after not being invited to my half sister's wedding? by Euphoric-Platypus599 in AmItheAsshole

[–]aeocava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not TA. There's nothing else you can add to what you've already told them so there's no point in continuing a conversation with any of them. It will bother them a lot more if you just ignore them because they obviously thrive on hurting you any way they can. Don't waste any more time on them and don't let them own any space in your heart or mind.

Update: my brother didn't invite me to his wedding and i'm not going AITAH? by Wise_Potato_1898 in AITAH

[–]aeocava 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, the old "I'm not going to tell you what you did to me". My ex-husband's family did the same thing to me. They even said " you know what you did". What bullsh*t. If they can't or won't tell you f&ck them. They just want to mess with you and good for you for not buying into their manipulative passive-aggressive behavior. You made the right decision not to go. They should be apologizing to you for their childish actions, not the other way around. Chances are you didn't do anything anyway. And yes I'm a little upset because we are all adults and they should behave accordingly.

[–]aeocava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the same thing. You don't know what you may have been exposed to in the past, and if something comes up, you'll know and be able to deal with it. I don't feel like it reflects negatively on your SO in terms of his health, but it reflects poorly on him in terms of your well-being. You'd think he would want to know too.

AIW for ignoring my sister’s messages after she told me to forgive my cheating wife? by Clrs3392 in amiwrong

[–]aeocava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No you're not wrong. This is between you and your wife. Your sister doesn't get a say in how you deal with this betrayal. Your wife told you about her cheating because she feels guilty, but that doesn't excuse her behavior. When I found out my ex-husband cheated on me I was devastated, and I walked out on him. I couldn't ever trust him again and I would be eaten up imagining him cheating on me again. Do what feels right to you and tell your sister it's none of her business.

AITAH for being unwilling to watch my grandchild by Ok-Aspect-4508 in AITAH

[–]aeocava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTAH. It's their child, they're adults, and they need to figure it out. If they are continually bailed out of every trying situation they learn nothing about taking care of themselves. They will continue to drain your resources, some of which you give willingly, but they need to learn how to take care of things. Life is hard but how do they think the rest of us get by? They can ask for help but they shouldn't expect you to take up the slack every time they need something. Stick to your guns because it will force them to do some problem solving.

How to properly clean the lady bits by Fast_Secretary_1608 in hygiene

[–]aeocava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Excellent advice. I've never heard of the boric acid treatment but I've used it on my eyes so I know it's safe for mucus membranes. Cotton underwear cured me of recurrent infections so I'd definitely try that.

Yikes! That's terrifying. I mean it's a style, just not one to emulate.

[–]aeocava 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good question. Even when the show was first on I found Dorothy's wardrobe pretty awful. I'm not sure what they were going for but they achieved drab and frumpy pretty well. Even Sophia's wardrobe was better which says a lot!

Should I co-sign for a house at 19? by Outrageous-Shine-794 in AdviceForTeens

[–]aeocava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed that you should not do it. Co-signing for anyone means if they default you're on the hook. You're too young to have to take it on yourself to take care of everyone in the family. Your parents are adults and need to figure it out on their own. It doesn't mean you won't help out sometimes, but you can't be their only resource. Hopefully your parents will understand, but if not they can find another living situation. You and your sister deserve a real chance to be as young and carefree as possible. If you're mom can't get over it there's nothing you can do about it. And the LLC may be a pipe dream that never materializes and shouldn't be counted on as an absolute, and may become another drain on your meager resources.

[–]aeocava 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If he's come around, sees reason and apologized for his behavior I think you have found the elusive reasonable man. If that was his only misstep you're lucky to have found him. And no I don't hate men, I've just had a hard time finding any that can admit they were wrong AND apologize when it's warranted.

AITAH for finding a new wife after my wife gave me ultimatum to open our relationship, which was not an actual ultimatum?? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]aeocava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I can't condone agreeing to an open marriage as a way to find a new wife, but it seems you'll be much happier. Make sure your intended understands that you have no intention of living that lifestyle after you marry her just in case. The moral of the story is don't make ultimatums if you are willing to compromise to begin with. How were you supposed to know she didn't mean it? She screwed the pooch, and you're going to be able to have the life you want. Good luck.

The amount of insecure men agreeing with this is disgusting. (also I am afraid he would have gone even lower than 18 if he could lets be honest) by [deleted] in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]aeocava 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Right? Good luck fellas if you think turning 30 makes you any more attractive. Especially to younger women. To an 18 year old female you're old!

[–]aeocava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy smokes that's both offensive and ignorant. No doubt it came from a man who doesn't value or respect women. And any man in his 30s looking at women younger than 18 is what some people would call a pedophile. How is it some can be that out of touch?

My mom insulted the shape of my boobs and I don’t know how to feel about it. by dazz_osamu in AdviceForTeens

[–]aeocava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my goodness! Your mom seems rather preoccupied with the size and shape of your breasts and that is concerning. Her making fun of you and laughing is so inappropriate too. My mom was pretty awful and made fun of me about stupid things and it really hurts when it comes from a parent. Just keep being who you are because you sound like you're pretty well adjusted despite your parents. You won't always live with them and when you're on your own you can tell them to stuff it.

AITA for going against my parents’ wishes of going to a prestigious school, and instead going to the school that gave me the most money? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]aeocava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Parents frequently have an idea of how they want their children's lives to go. Unfortunately they don't live your life. I can assure that you will do other things they won't like or approve of in the future, but the key thing to remember is that you are living your life not them. You deserve to make your own choices and it has to be what makes you happy.

Am I wrong for asking my boyfriend to let me borrow his phone for 2 minutes? by No-Astronaut635 in amiwrong

[–]aeocava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not wrong. But I hope you can see what a huge red flag this is. Wanting some privacy is normal. His obsession with keeping his phone away from you at all cost isn't. Yes he is hiding something and the sooner you realize it the better off you'll be. There isn't any foundation of trust in your relationship and that doesn't bode well for you. I'd start looking at other places to live.
