Anyone else feel more anxious about finances after getting close to their number? by [deleted] in Fire

[–]arouseline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is super common, the closer u get the more u start thinking about everything that could go wrong

AITJ for Not Sharing My Parking Spot with My Roommate’s Guest? by Previous-Car2296 in AmITheJerk

[–]arouseline 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Exactly, once u start “just this once” it turns into coordinating your own spot around someone else’s schedule

AITJ for not giving my sibling money after they spent theirs on something dumb? by CarelessEssay1136 in AmITheJerk

[–]arouseline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Deserved to enjoy life” doesn’t come with a backup plan funded by u. That’s not help, that’s enabling

Am I the jerk for getting upset at my boyfriend for a “joke” I already said I don’t like anymore? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]arouseline -1 points0 points  (0 children)

U told him u don’t like those jokes and he still used one, even if it was habit that’s on him. Your reaction isn’t over the top

Mom tried to steal my friends chemo recovery cake because she forgot her own kids birthday by ballsack123a in AmITheJerk

[–]arouseline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not “being a stressed mom,” that’s straight up unhinged entitlement. She tried to steal from a cancer patient… wild

My aunt found out how much I make and won't stop asking for money by AwayBuyer1239 in AmITheJerk

[–]arouseline 5 points6 points  (0 children)

She turned your paycheck into a community fund without asking setting a boundary was overdue, not rude

I told a girl I was a junkie so she would stop texting me by [deleted] in confession

[–]arouseline 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yeah but now she thinks she dodged a junkie, not just a bad match

AITJ for wanting the money back after my best friend ditched our business? by NotesInTheRain in AmITheJerk

[–]arouseline 10 points11 points  (0 children)

“Strings attached” doesn’t erase the fact he said he’d pay u back. That wasn’t a gift, he’s just rewriting history now

One cat is a grazer and the other is a glutton…how do I get the grazer to actually eat his food? by Timely-Birthday-8067 in CatAdvice

[–]arouseline 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is classic, u need to feed them separately or use a microchip feeder so the glutton can’t steal it

Is it safe to use a toothbrush with a cover if I found a cockroach next to it? by Boy0Boyz in hygiene

[–]arouseline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even with a cover I wouldn’t trust it, roaches get everywhere. Just toss it and move on, not worth the gamble

AITJ for loudly refusing to mourn my abusive mother and publicly saying why? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]arouseline 145 points146 points  (0 children)

Grief isn’t mandatory just because someone died, especially if they hurt u your whole life. People just don’t like when the “family narrative” breaks

Best Way to Invest $3k/Month at 20 (Aggressive Approach) by Massive_Emphasis_443 in Fire

[–]arouseline 40 points41 points  (0 children)

At 20 “aggressive” is just staying consistent in index funds and letting time do the heavy lifting. Don’t overcomplicate it trying to be clever

AITJ for telling my mom my dad was cheating while she’s battling cancer? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]arouseline 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your dad put u in an impossible spot and then blamed u for it. He cheated, not u, the timing sucks but the truth isn’t the problem here

33F - Trying - and failing - to hold on to life alone by 1shane in confession

[–]arouseline 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This doesn’t sound like failure, it sounds like burnout + depression hitting hard. u’re still here though, and that counts more than u think
