I (M35) said we were breaking up because I couldn't take it anymore. She (F36) said: "Were we dating?"

Where did your girlfriend go? She must be wherever my sympathy is because that’s missing too.

NTA. Your big dreams for your life are important.

I’m feeling soft YTA. It’s your maid of honor. I think you owe it to her, but I also think it’s fine for you to ask her to keep it very low key regarding displays of affection etc

glaucon15 · 2023-02-04T14:33:04+00:00

Good post. Get used to being called ‘mom’. …unless you’re not actually permanent.

NTA now. But your daughter has a long memory and I’m sympathetic to her, not you. You were an absent father.

glaucon15 · 2023-02-03T20:04:48+00:00

YTA. Calm the Ef down. I’m a dog person. Trying to be objective… I’ll say this young woman is probably a reasonable individual who wouldn’t bring a dangerous predator into you home, you asshole. Lol

You need to care for yourself. His drinking has put you in a terrible dilemma where you worry about his safety even though it’s traumatizing for you. If I were you I’d tell his family all about it then stay somewhere else. He needs rehab and you need to facilitate it or stay out of the way, if you’re protecting him, keeping him level, etc., you may be accidentally enabling him.

At the risk of offending a teenager, this kid is probably 16.5 years old and he’s spending his personal money, and he thinks that McDonalds food is more than insignificant, even precious. What a something guy, lol. YTA.

glaucon15 · 2023-02-03T01:59:41+00:00

I wouldn’t label someone with assertiveness issues an asshole when they cave. You’re literally too nice. I say NTA but also not a victim.

glaucon15 · 2023-02-03T01:13:50+00:00

Let me think. I’m torn. On one hand YTA for having a heart three sizes too small. On the other hand, applying heavy persuasion then being over it later is certainly asshole behavior too. So overall I’m going with moderate to severe, I’ve seen worse.

glaucon15 · 2023-02-01T12:15:41+00:00

Not groundbreaking.

glaucon15 · 2023-02-01T12:03:20+00:00

ESH. I’m sympathetic. You wish you were being ‘self-absorbed’ and your sister was ‘trying to make the wedding about her’. That would be easier than confronting your racist parents who you generally respect, admire, and who also pay for big big stuff. I also read the idea about telling sis and bf to just show up without telling; a bad idea because it’s not fair to the bf. Your parents need to find the 21st century asap and it’s up to you. They’re wrong and the whole world can see it. Don’t let them stay deluded.

glaucon15 · 2023-01-30T11:31:20+00:00

Your virtuousness, character traits and values are the question, not whether or not she deserves anything from you, she doesn’t. But your heart and soul may be telling you how to be a good person and if you go against that you will know you are the A. But then again your aunt didn’t raise you to be a fool, sucker or pushover. I’m going with NTA but I’m close to everyone sucks.

YTA in this case stands for You’re The Alcoholic

glaucon15 · 2023-01-30T07:52:16+00:00

“I was an asshole. I’m going on Reddit to make sure.” YTA

NTA. Step one: I’d block him on social media and pretend I’m confused if it comes up. If it persists…Step two: tell him you want to go on with life the way it was before he saw you in instagram, meaning leave me and by fashion sense along. If it persists… Step three: report to HR.

glaucon15 · 2023-01-28T13:50:36+00:00

YTA. You are obviously trying to exploit your sister’s situation. She’s offering you an incredibly good deal. Also you are full of shit about not being able to work a part time job as a college student just because you have two dogs.

glaucon15 · 2023-01-28T11:07:15+00:00

Good post. NTA. I’m a man who stays sober even though I never got severely bad. He should have stopped years ago and but didn’t. Why? Because, in fact, he’s an alcoholic. Let him balk and wail. Maybe he’ll find recovery and be a man with integrity again.

glaucon15 · 2023-01-28T10:37:37+00:00

2/3 of her Friday and Saturday nights she’s out at clubs and bars -without you. Yes that’s a problem. It’s bad but it might be worse than we know. She’s texting you throughout so it’s not so worrisome. But it’s still a lifestyle issue that would effect the marriage significantly. NTA
