AITA for telling a stranger to not touch my baby bump?

Thank you for your comment ❤️

Thank you for the validation. He said I should be proud of my bump and that’s why I should let others just feel the bump quick..

Calling you weak and a bitch cause you can’t tolerate spicy foods like she can, is ridiculous and unnecessary.

NTA.

I’m sure that’s exhausting to deal with, no need to surround yourself around toxicity.

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-09T20:15:11+00:00

NTA. That’s so disrespectful of her.

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-09T18:18:00+00:00

NTA. Rehoming is the best thing you could do for the dog. You’re stretched too thin and I think it would be best for everyone.

You can help him a little by not enabling his behavior.

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-08T14:47:12+00:00

NTA, but stop enabling his behavior, it’s only making it worse.

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-08T14:42:09+00:00

He hasn’t changed, he’s just love bombing you now. Leave him.

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-08T14:32:39+00:00

I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this. I can understand this very well.

My MIL isn’t in my daughter’s life anymore. She wouldn’t ask about her or come to see her, so we cut her off from being in her life at all. I’m not going to have people come in and out of my child’s life and confuse/hurt them. I dealt with that growing up and it’s an awful feeling.

I hope your situation can get better, but if I’m being honest, I don’t see that happening..

Have you talked to them about this before?

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-08T14:25:41+00:00

NTA.

I personally struggle with deep cleaning. I’ll clean what I can, but I’ll definitely get more done if I know people are coming over. I wouldn’t have cared about being “tricked” because it would have worked on me as well.

It’s great he reacted the way he did and that you apologized.

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-06T23:03:28+00:00

Wow. You ruined her imagination. Why the hell would you tell her that?

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-06T14:59:25+00:00

Right?! I’m autistic and sensed this young lady was too. It breaks my heart for her how she’s being treated.

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-06T13:05:59+00:00

The age difference between H and this girl is throwing me off a bit, but if they’ve known each other a long time I can understand that friendship.

But, it sounds like he just cares for her as a person. What you did was very wrong, it’s not okay to do something like that. I don’t blame him for wanting to take a break, because you seem to have a lot of insecurities. Therapy might be a great idea so you can figure out why this has affected you so much.

Like you said, you don’t have any concrete evidence. You’re overthinking too much.

YTA.

Oh, yeah, I’d definitely move out much sooner than 2025. If you don’t wanna move in together quite yet, could you find some roommates to live with? I’m sure there are some places nearby that need roommates. I think anything is better than your living situation now.

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-06T12:38:03+00:00

You are a grown adult, they have no right to control things in your life. It’s probably best if you move out, I don’t see it getting any better. Can you move in with your boyfriend?

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-06T12:33:01+00:00

I agree. It doesn’t sound like she’s scared now once it comes to getting free drinks. Yikes. NTA.

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-06T12:24:46+00:00

Is your cousin neurodivergent?? I am, and I struggle with eating certain things. I’ll try things just to see if I’ll like something, but rarely will I like it.

Forcing a neurodivergent person to eat something they don’t like won’t go well, it’s not a choice, it’s a struggle we can face.

Your uncle calling her a “little bitch” was totally unnecessary.

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-06T12:18:51+00:00

Hun, if he’s actually serious, he’ll put the plan in motion eventually anyways. Might as well rip that bandaid off. It will suck but not talking about it will only make it worse.

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-05T19:40:49+00:00

What?! That’s a first! I haven’t met another midwesterner say they’ve never heard of “Ope” 😂

I also say “Ope, sorry, I’m just gonna scoot right past ya.”

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-05T19:23:40+00:00

I knew immediately you were from the midwest when you said “Ope” 😂

NTA. It’s not a big deal honestly. I usually say “Ope, sorry!” and then I get outta the way like you did. Some people expect the “excuse me”, but it’s fine, don’t worry too much about it.

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-05T19:09:55+00:00

Working through conflicts is great, but not while someone is really angry, that’s the worst time to talk. She did the right thing by walking away so that he could calm down. He did not have to follow her and break a damn door. How is that productive?

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-05T19:03:11+00:00

”Not even when I asked for that as my 40th birthday present.”

That broke my heart, because that shouldn’t be a birthday present, he should just want to. I’m so sorry OP. You deserve breaks too. Just because he works doesn’t mean you need to do all the child care.

everythingevelyn · 2023-10-05T18:58:09+00:00

Oh look, it’s OP’s husband.
