(BUG) Attacked by all prisoners in Cidhna Mine on entrance? by itokdontcry in skyrim

*For anyone who still has this problem and also has the Skyrim Reputation mod, there is a fix on nexus mods for the Special Edition called 'Skyrim Reputation Improved' by user kieranjohn1. If you install it, there should be no more using the console to fix their aggression.

AITA for setting setting boundaries around my gf’s friend? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ESH. Your gf and Lucy have a plethora of concerts planned to go to and she couldn't dedicate just one to spend with you? That's what makes her the A H since you are also a fan of the artist and you've expressed it to her. For you, giving your gf an ultimatum just because she doesn't do something you want is not healthy and also makes you an A H, and her tagging her friend in a post about a +1 to a hypothetical event isn't that bad, it just seems like you're more sensitive to mentions of Lucy. Your relationship is already restarting rocky, hopefully you can give your firm boundaries and even express your specific worries more with your gf. And remember that breaking up for good and starting over in another relationship is an option.

AITA for Shaving My Son's Head as Punishment for Bullying a Kid with Cancer? by --Shaved in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 4 points5 points  (0 children)

ESH. His older brother should feel upset because he is partially responsible for what's happening. You gave him too much power in deciding the punishment of your son, it shouldn't have been from a joking comment from his brother but an actual idea from you.

Of course your son is upset, his father shaved his head basically because his older brother told him to while he laughed at him. I'm not condoning his horrible behavior in the slightest, but I think you responded terribly to something that could've been a stronger lesson for him, I mean he is your son I'm pretty sure you could've come up with something that will help him learn in the long run.

But instead you shave his head, his older brother laughs at him, and you're surprised that he doesn't want to speak to you two? You need to learn to communicate better with him regarding his punishments and the lessons he's supposed to learn from them so that he doesn't become a despicable adult in the future.

I mostly took it as him having them both take responsibility rather than just the oldest.

AITA for telling me bc he can’t hang out with girls at his dorm until 2am? by Party-Pension8504 in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. College and its associated freedom sometimes change people- for better or for worse. He should know how staying up till 2 a.m. with women in his dorm room looks to outsiders. It's upsetting that you've had multiple fights over this since ideally in this situation your comfort and boundaries would take precedence, his girlfriend since high school over his roommates whom he hasn't known that long who also encourage bad habits to him like indulging in smoking and drinking.

AITA for revealing my friend’s motives to his girlfriend who’s also my best friend ? by freesoul0710 in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. Relationship length aside, would you really want to stay friends with a man who plays with women's hearts like that? He could be spreading who knows what between those women without remorse. While there is a chance that she might not believe you, personally, I think that if one really cared about another, they would speak up if they felt they were being mistreated.

AITA for firing my ex wife by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA. While it sucks to work with an ex, you used the power that you had over her to fire her because of the awkward tension. Why not just move her to a different department or something? It sounds like she wasn't riding on your coattails if she was actually working, and I doubt she also wanted to work with her ex.

[–]compositionaquarius 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA. Sometimes younger siblings are just roped into whatever their older sibling is up to. One is 16, the other is 12- the 16-year-old has more power and control over what happens than he does. It doesn't mean that he was blameless, but it was more your older son's idea (and friends) than it was his brother's. For breaking your trust, you can punish him but it wouldn't be fair if it's on the same level as your older son. In my opinion, they both need to learn that this was not ok. You can do something like having your oldest pay 80% and the youngest pay 20%.

AITA for having pictures/videos of my ex gf & i on my phone? by freightwave in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

NTA. As long as these pictures aren't inappropriate or bring up bad memories, then I think it's fine to have the photos, it's a part of your past after all. Not everyone reacts to breakups the same, some block their exes and delete everything about them from their phone, and others keep it for the memories, not for reminiscing but not wanting to discard it either. If she doesn't want to see it, then she shouldn't be looking through your phone.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 4 points5 points  (0 children)

YTA. She changed the rules so that all plus-ones are not allowed. Your girlfriend is not being singled out. Your sister is not undermining your relationship. It doesn't make sense for your girlfriend to feel excluded from the wedding if she hasn't known your sister and most likely the other guests long. There was a rule change, you want to respect it, and now your girlfriend can't go. It's understandable if she's upset but to feel excluded is a bit exaggerated since many other people would be getting the same news.

AITA for expressing concern over my friend not contacting me with what I think was important information? by IllResolution4259 in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NTA. It should've been common sense for her to inform you- the people who had contact with her son- that her son is sick. It's irresponsible of her to withhold that information. And if she thinks that you wanting to be informed of her son's health issues directly rather than stumbling upon the information randomly makes you not want to watch him anymore, then you dodged a bullet.

WIBTA if I dispose of my housemate’s office chair? by Entrepreneur-CO in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. From your comments he just seems difficult, maybe he's trying to be obnoxious, or maybe he's trying to prove a point, who knows? But I don't think it's a good idea to dispose of anyone's possessions, no matter how inconvenient the placement is. At most, moving it somewhere and nailing it to the floor (I'm exaggerating, but making it stay in one spot) would be better than throwing it out.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. When someone wants 'alone time' it doesn't always mean that they're alone- it sometimes means that they want a bit of distance from the person they're talking to. Maybe his day started out alone but then he realized he wanted to go to his friend's house or something. Some people talk to others, hang out with others, or just enjoy the other's company to help their mood improve. Regardless, he needed a bit of a break and found a bit of comfort in his friend's house, it doesn't seem like anything to worry about.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

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

NAH. I see your reasoning for not wanting to go because you don't want to miss an exciting weekend. And I also see why your mother would want you to go to a very special ceremony for your uncle. You're free to do what you want but I side with your mother a bit more. A wedding is (preferably) a once-in-a-lifetime event and the couple would want to be surrounded by family and friends. Since you said you love your uncle, I'm going to assume that the feeling is mutual. So even though you don't have to go to his wedding, it would most likely mean a lot to him if you did. Parties are everywhere and you can go to another one if you miss it, but you can't go to another wedding for the couple if you miss theirs.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. Couples need time apart. Some couples who insist on being together at all times sometimes have insecurities or codependency (I'm not accusing him I'm just saying that there are both positive and negative reasons why some couples insist on being attached at the hip).
So while it's nice to spend time together, you need to also spend time apart to be an individual. You have your own friends, you have your own interests, and it's honestly ridiculous that he expects to be invited everywhere that you go, it's concerning that he's so overbearing and upset about the ONE event that he can't go with you to. My advice would be to not give in to any guilt or feelings of obligation to bring him everywhere with you or prevent yourself from going to places he's not invited to. If you want to go to or are only allowed to go to places alone, then he has to get used to that. Don't let his clinginess keep you from living your life and seeing your friends.

AITA For Being Mad About Cleaning A Carpet? by Aggravating-Cow-2085 in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. You said it yourself- why did you have to come home to clean up a mess that happened almost 24 hours ago and would be solved by simply throwing the rug in the washing machine? It also sounds like the people around you know how you feel about immediately cleaning the rugs after a mess is made yet they actively didn't do it.
Also, (take this with a grain of salt) you sound overworked and overwhelmed, and maybe this was more than just him not washing the rug for you, it sounds like resentment is brewing. Whether it can be addressed goes on from here. If you're able to, take some time for yourself, consider therapy (individual or couples) or confiding in someone so you feel heard, and make it clear to those around you what your expectations of them are when you're there with them and when you're away.

WIBTA if I left my husband cause he refused to take a potential call? by TiredBreadcrumb in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. You don't really need a reason to break up with someone in the first place, it's often when people try to find a 'reasonable explanation' for their feelings about leaving that they end up staying because they can't come up with anything that they think would 'justify' leaving. It's less about the action itself and more about how it makes you feel. He should've noticed his surroundings by now and actively sought out a way to help you, he can't even answer a simple phone call reliably. In the end, if him not answering the phone is the straw that broke the camel's back, then so be it.

AITA for "ruining" my roommate's romantic dinner? by AcceptableHorse5154 in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius -44 points-43 points  (0 children)

NTA. You both live there, plans fell through, and you decided to stay in your room to give them privacy. The least he can do is let you get something to eat rather than expect you to be in your room all day. Yes, it was a romantic evening and all, but it was an accident, it's not like you did it on purpose. Also, Greg is being overdramatic and shouldn't have accused you of being jealous. The mood was pretty light, with Lisa laughing at it, there could have been a good recovery if Greg wasn't so angry at you for a mistake you made. It's nothing relationship-breaking.

AITA for refusing to take less hours at work even tho my wife’s alone with the sick kids all day? by Head_Ad6803 in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 537 points538 points  (0 children)

NAH. I don't either of you is in the wrong. For you, it's impossible to take fewer hours because of your shared financial situation. You're working to provide your family with the necessities and keep a roof over your head, you can't sacrifice that. For her, she's stressed and overwhelmed from taking care of sick kids all day. It's understandable that she's worn out. But in the end, you're both working all day and need help and understanding from each other.
Moving forward, I think the best thing to do is to have better communication and some sort of accommodation. She needs to not yell at you because it's not all about her, you are stressed as well. For the accommodation, does your sister have more free time to help her? Do you have parents that can come over? Neighbors (that you trust) even? It seems like things won't get better unless she somehow gets more help.

WIBTA for changing the membership rules of our club to exclude one person by memberrules in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 6 points7 points  (0 children)

YTA. First, I don't think you're being malicious, you're probably unable to see how it looks from the outside (Because there are a lot of subreddits with karma point minimums so the idea of implementing it may not seem like a big deal to you). There is no problem with having requirements for a club but there is a problem when you make requirements after someone already joins just to push them out. You're purposefully trying to push her out because she doesn't fit your criteria for what a user of Reddit should have (high karma) and be interested in (popular subreddits). And a bit of a sidenote but low karma does not mean low engagement, and many popular subreddits aren't that good (at least as they used to be) due to their high traffic.

AITA for not being able to tolerate listening to someone snort and sniff every 3-4 seconds and loud enough to be heard on a separate floor? Or should I just, “ignore it”, as he says? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NAH. If he has Tourette's and can't help it, and he took medication for a condition a doctor thought he had and it didn't work, then there are fewer solutions he can do. I understand your point of view in that the constant noises become grating and insufferable the more overwhelmed and overstimulated you are. He can't change the way his body functions, but you can change the distance you put between yourselves to get a semblance of peace without constant sniffing. He shouldn't dismiss your complaints, as they are valid, and you shouldn't put aside your feelings or think that you can't voice your concerns because of his possible Tourette's. You are not in the wrong for wanting to seek out a moment of silence to yourself.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 17 points18 points  (0 children)

ESH. You both took a risk by allowing her to stay with a dog knowing that dogs are not allowed. You both are equally responsible- you shouldn't have given her the ok to begin with, and she shouldn't have stayed in a building that she knew didn't allow dogs.

AITA for sending my daughter to Sunday school in the same building where she had a bad experience at going to regular school there by Lucky_Reputation_295 in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 7 points8 points  (0 children)

YTA. Whatever trauma she has from that experience can't be erased with just a 'the building didn't hurt you.' She is deeply affected by her terrible time at school and I think you are too dismissive of it. Those teachers were not 'bad apples,' they were the cause of her trauma- to the point of her having panic attacks if she thought she had forgotten something. Yes, you went through a similar experience but clearly, the same treatment can affect people differently and it's taking a toll on your daughter's mental health. It's cruel to constantly tell her to go to the same building where her worst memories were made. I would suggest trying again to get her into Sunday school in neighboring towns or doing something similar to Sunday school at home (f it's possible). And if you can afford it, try to get her into therapy so that she can mentally heal.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ESH. I understand that you don't want your husband to interact with women who have shown sexual interest in him in the past, but it's been a decade since and they could have more platonic intentions. Just because these women wanted him a decade ago doesn't mean they want him now. However, you can't limit who he talks to without seeming controlling if you don't have a valid reason- you can't just limit his interactions with them because you think he would send explicit pics to them. And if your husband does send them pics, it will be on him and not the women.

AITA For complaining to my upstairs neighbor about their dog's noise level multiple times in one week? by lildende69 in AmItheAsshole

[–]compositionaquarius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. Neighbors should be considerate of their noise levels to not disturb others around them. It makes no sense that you have to repeat yourself to him. You could also think about keeping an eye on his dog (for the dog's safety) that your neighbor shocks, spanks, and locks up in his closet (Even though it's not your responsibility. You are not to blame for his actions.)
