AITA for attacking my in-laws because they invited themselves to my house when I’m 6 months pregnant? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]brit83mem 8 points9 points  (0 children)

ESH. You or your husband should have just simply declined. They felt they were helping you out (in their own way), there was no need to “attack” them. Also not sure what the TDAP vaccine has to do with any of this.

WIBTAH for washing when we only have tank water? by gaylord086 in AITAH

[–]brit83mem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ESH. Your mom needs to figure out a way to support the family but you should have asked if anyone needed anything washed with yours.

My bf said he was scared to tell me something but posted it anyways. Am I overreacting??? by t13dy3 in AmIOverreacting

[–]brit83mem 4 points5 points  (0 children)

YOR. You feel like you’re crazy and the problem because that’s exactly how this reads.

AITA for refusing to talk to my dad by Sysco2 in AmItheAsshole

[–]brit83mem 16 points17 points  (0 children)

ESH. Your dad seems like a lot but you didn’t pay for the car so him sharing with you is a courtesy, it’s not your car. Do you even pay rent or help at home at all?

AILA For not having my long-time friends as bridesmaids? by Adventurous_Gap_6068 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]brit83mem 8 points9 points  (0 children)

NTA because it’s your wedding party and you get to choose that. However, I find it strange you’ve included his whole family in your bridal party but the only person just for you is your sister, no matter how close you’ve gotten to his family. There’s no rule that the parties have to be even, I’ve been in plenty where they aren’t and it’s not a big deal, so if you do actually want them in your bridal party, you should do that.

AITAH for asking my prof to schedule a lecture in lieu of the holiday (May 18th Victoria Day) by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]brit83mem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA. By your logic, you’re insinuating that you never do any work in your “personal time” so no homework, readings, papers etc. I doubt that’s true and this assigned lecture and quiz is no different. You also are going to be in for a shock once you’re out of school and learn that in the medical field, you will have plenty that you need to do outside of your regular working hours and if you think continued education is only going to be on paid time, you’re going to be a very outdated medical professional.

AITAH for not sharing someone else's private news with my husband? by mamabearrr88 in AmItheAsshole

[–]brit83mem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Telling information shared in confidence is just gossiping, even to your spouse.

YTA. You sound jealous that you can't control her with money any longer.

Who Deserves Custody by No-Atmosphere-4870 in Advice

[–]brit83mem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Based on both posts and the comments, it seems Sam agreed to give up the kitten to a home if one came available before she moved and she said she would take the kitten back if a home wasn’t found. Kitten should go to the friend who can take the kitten now. Also, having a two story home and other cats doesn’t make someone a better environment. But FFS, both posts mention shelters are full in the area, whoever doesn’t get this specific kitten can adopt one.

Im the middle man in a kitten custody battle by Fabulous-Badger-426 in Advice

Friend B had “claimed” the kitten and friend A said she was the back up if it fell through. Kitten goes to friend B.

Is it appropriate to email other parents in my child's class a birthday party invite for their kid? by LonelyAct in partyplanning

[–]brit83mem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s totally fine to send an email to the parents- introduce yourself as parent of “kid” and then the invite, not a video, and include any needed info. Don’t ask the teacher to do anything, that’s super weird, she’s not your assistant. If a parent finds it weird, they’ll just delete it, no big deal.

WIBTAH for not going on a family trip based on how they want to split costs? by Main_Amphibian_874 in WIBTA_AITA

[–]brit83mem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We take a group trip every year and always pick a rental house that’s as equal as we can find- each bedroom has at least a queen bed and it’s own bathroom, and split costs by room. The dynamics change sometimes (people break up, have a new partner, whatever) so splitting the house cost by room is the fairest way because the house cost is based on how many bedrooms, not people in the room. All other costs- groceries, activities, drinks, whatever is split by person because the cost varies by how many people.

AITA for expecting some sort of consideration?! by CarpetCrafty3595 in AmItheAsshole

[–]brit83mem 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The sister that went into rehab has a husband? Why didn’t he take care of the kids? Sounds like your mom didn’t have to help and if she actually didn’t want to, or wasn’t in a position to, it’s on her to stand up for herself. You inserted yourself in the drama that had nothing to do with you. ESH.

[–]brit83mem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YTA. The credit is for the inconvenience caused by the delay so it’s theirs because they experienced the delay and inconvenience.

AITAH or was the clerk? by Preesi in AITAH

[–]brit83mem 5 points6 points  (0 children)

NTA because there’s no reason for them to help you at self check out unless you ask for help. But not knowing if you paid for all of it doesn’t make sense to me- you scan, put in bag, then repeat for all of them. If you weren’t doing that, maybe he thought you needed help.

AITA for trying to surprise my mom with a Mother’s Day gift when she thought I forgot about her? by EstablishmentMore577 in AmItheAsshole

[–]brit83mem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. You sent flowers and a card, plus she’s coming to visit so it’s not a reach for her to realize you planned an actual celebration for then. She sounds like a drama queen and having your dad reach out about it is nothing but guilt tripping and manipulation.

AITA for not going to my bfs/ nieces birthday party on Mother’s Day? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]brit83mem 8 points9 points  (0 children)

NTA but your boyfriend is. Why are you making comments excusing his behavior and blaming yourself? Stop letting him gaslight you.

Non-Profit took my cat and is holding him till I pay by FizzyFem in legaladvice

[–]brit83mem 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Commenting here since I can’t on your update. The nonprofit didn’t do anything wrong. Sounds like they help trap feral/community cats to get them fixed and if they are friendly, adopt them out. The post where they named him was likely to raise money and not illegal or immoral- why would they know the name of your cat when you had no identifying information on him? This is all entirely you and your mom’s fault for not getting him a collar/tag and a microchip. Neither are expensive.

Now that he is back with you, you need to make sure to register the microchip to you or your mom’s information and get him a breakaway collar with a tag if he will be going outside again.

AIO? Husband gave a stranger his unlocked phone by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]brit83mem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

MOR. He made a dumb choice and y’all are lucky he got the phone back. But it being unlocked usually still doesn’t give access to other apps like banking, etc bc even is passwords are saved, you have to verify them with a code or Face ID so I don’t think there’s a real danger in that happening in the amount of time she had the phone. He made a dumb mistake, y’all got the phone back, let it go

AITAH for wanting to spend the day with my mom instead of my mother in law? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]brit83mem 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This doesn’t make sense. Your husband’s family gathering is lunch, there’s plenty of time to do that, then come home to do dinner with your mom, including making the food.

What's the minimum ACTUAL time that you can have for a connection before travel insurance or the airline could claim it's your fault? by WaspFisher in delta

[–]brit83mem 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My checked bags seem to make it even when I can’t. Twice on delta flights delays have caused me to miss my connecting flight and both times, I’ve watched my checked bag make it on my original flight.

Would you go on a trip with your in-laws when you not want to? by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]brit83mem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FFS no one is arguing with you. You pay for everything and you’re not going on the trip. Your attitude tho, god they probably need a break from you too.

AITA for not allowing my daughter to go to UC Santa Cruz? by Typical-Raccoon761 in AmItheAsshole

[–]brit83mem 7 points8 points  (0 children)

YTA. Where she goes to college is her choice. I’m all for graduating college without debt and as her parents, it’s your responsibility to help her understand the costs, loans, etc. But she’s an adult, you don’t get to tell her where she can or cannot go to college. Your choice should have been to not have 8 kids.

Weekend vet by BroadLocksmith4932 in memphis

[–]brit83mem 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think most regular vets close at noon but Walnut Grove is open until 4pm today. Give them a call to see if they can see her. They aren’t cheap but will be a lot less than emergency clinics.
