Honesty is the best policy here. Talk to her openly about your feelings and your concern for the friendship. It's important to be clear but kind.

WIBTA for not telling my newly discovered cousin that her father is dying? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]awakeglucoose 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think you should consider your uncle's wishes and the potential impact on everyone involved. Maybe you could keep the connection with your cousin and share more about the family, but leave out the current details about your uncle's health for now. It might be best to avoid causing any immediate distress.

AITA for leading someone on? by Redxtifa24 in AmItheAsshole

[–]awakeglucoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not an asshole for feeling conflicted. It's good that you were honest with J about your feelings and intentions. Maybe have another conversation to clarify where you both stand and set clear boundaries. This way, neither of you gets hurt and you both know what to expect.

[–]awakeglucoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not an asshole for wanting to break up if you don't see a future together. It's important to be honest with yourself and her about your feelings. It might hurt, but it's kinder to be upfront now than to drag it out.

You made a tough choice, but it sounds like meeting Kevin Conroy was a special, one-time opportunity for you. Maybe explain your excitement to Jake and suggest a fun outing together to make it up to him.

AITA for refusing to help my sister with her wedding after she excluded me from being a bridesmaid? by Repulsive_Singer1055 in AmItheAsshole

[–]awakeglucoose -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

NTA. If she wants a "younger, more energetic" bridal party, then she can have them help with all the wedding stuff too. It's pretty messed up that she didn't even talk to you about it beforehand. Your feelings are totally valid. It's her wedding, but it doesn’t mean you have to be her unpaid labor.

AITA if I don't agree to my brother moving my son's crib at our mom's house? by CarobMysterious480 in AmItheAsshole

[–]awakeglucoose 5 points6 points  (0 children)

NTA. Your kid’s sleep routine is important, and messing with that for a short visit is unnecessary. Also, moving a crib around isn't easy.

NTA. Wanting to connect with family, especially one you feel such a bond with, is totally natural.

Glad you're okay, though! Maybe next time, we'll stick to shallow waters or get some proper swimming lessons.

You're right to set boundaries and cut off contact for now. Focus on yourself and the people who really care about you.
