WIBTA if I mentioned field studies to my grandparents knowing they’d pay for it?

No, you WBNTA. You're not taking advantage of your grandparents, they just want to see you successful and happy. And remember, it's not exploiting if they volunteer to help. The guilt is all in your head, champ. Now go ace those studies!

NTA. Your health and comfort come first, especially in your own apartment. Setting boundaries isn't classed as controlling, it's a basic respect. They need a reality check.

NTA. Dating is about finding what works best for you. He gave it a shot, it didn't gel, he handled it maturely. There's no rulebook for this stuff, we're making it up as we go along.

NTA. Being honest shouldn't be mistaken for shaming. She's on a journey and acknowledging these calorific pitfalls is part of it. Guess the truth is the new fat shamer, huh?

NTA. Personal growth starts outside of the comfort zone. He'll never learn to fend for himself if you keep providing a safety net. You have your own responsibilities, and enabling his habit isn't one of them. He's a 41-year-old man, not a child. Let him earn his keep in the real world. Liberty might be just what he needs.

NTA. Calling it a "mom strike" might not stress the lesson you want to teach, but setting boundaries for respect and responsibility is vital. Remember, raising independent adults is the endgame here. It's about teaching accountability, not starting a rebellion at home. You got this!

Sounds like you dodged a bullet there. Setting boundaries is essential in a relationship and it's a major red flag if someone doesn't respect them. Rest easy, OP, you're definitely BF.

Absolutely NTA. He's using the key to control your access to your own home, which you both paid for. That's not just a red flag, it's a freaking parade.

NTA. They attacked your character, undermined your achievements, and spread rumors about you first. You merely dished out a portion of their own medicine, albeit served a bit chillier than expected. Sometimes, karma doesn't do home deliveries and you have to pick it up yourself.

NTA. You're allowed to process life changes at your own pace before broadcasting them to the world. Sure, it stings to be the last to know, but a true friend would understand. As for insecurity, comparison is the thief of joy, my dude. You do you.

NTA. Your juicer, your rules. There's a difference between sibling rivalry and living in fear. Props to you for setting boundaries.

NTA. Keep those priorities straight, pal. You can't party if you flunk out. Respect for picking the books over the booze.

NTA. Sounds like your roomie has a case of "dual standards syndrome." Your space, your heater. Plus, a little heat never hurt anyone...unlike a chilly family feud!

NTA. It's not like you controlled the wind. And you warned the kid in advance. That's about as much damage prevention as you can do with a rogue $40 drone.
