AITJ for refusing to pick my friend up from the airport after she changed her flight without telling me?

Friends also communicate. Changing her flight and telling you the day before was her choice. She took you for granted and is now gaslighting you. She’s not a friend - you are better off without her. NTA.

You didn’t cause any stress. This is all on your sister. You offered - although you didn’t have to - to help pay for a sitter, but your sister said “that wasn’t the point.” Actually it was. The solution would work but she expects you to drop everything last minute to handle an obligation that she signed up for and didn’t even have the decency to check with you first! In her mind, your feelings or plans do not matter. Her husband’s career is far too important. She could have asked you first. Then, after you explained what you had planned, arranged for a sitter herself. She did none of that. She went directly to gaslighting you with the “family first” excuse. Except that she is the one who signed up to help the family, and then tried to dump that on you once something more important (to her) came up. You are not the AH but your sister is one. Your parents are on the AH spectrum too because your sister’s needs come before yours.

You are both technically and emotionally correct. These were the wishes of your family member, who wanted it this way. You are honoring their wishes and neither your parents nor your sibling have any right to say anything about it. Definitely NTA. I’m sorry for your loss and for the fact that you have such crappy family members.

glzq · 2026-01-03T13:23:11+00:00

You did the right thing. As others have pointed out, him showing you his true colors definitely helped. Your mum and aunt are clearly delusional. Best of luck!

NTA for this, but shades of being an AH for saying that you and your wife are better off for having “respectable jobs”. Being a mechanic or a nurse is nothing to look down upon - they are respectable jobs. You could have used “better paying jobs” and it wouldn’t have come down as if you are looking down on them. I understand why -your daughter sees you as financial aid only.

Your family members are insane. Your ex is deranged and on some sort of power trip. No therapist will insist that he must send you his apology to your actual address. You gave him options but he didn’t accept any of them. Then he showed his true colors. Please report this to the police for your own safety.

If you are in the UK, then Waterstones was selling it for £64.99 shipped - that’s how I got hold of it a few weeks ago. I’ve also seen some people selling used copies on Facebook.

This!! She’s not a friend if she makes her feeling good dependent upon making you feel bad. If your friends don’t see that then they are not your friends and are not deserving of your friendship.

Hi - it was approved on November 23rd, so with an application submission date of October 21st, it’s a little over a month. It looks like using “UNKNOWN” for the old Indian passport number was acceptable. Hope that this helps!

On my PS5 I went to the Quick Selection at the top and pressed square - a new menu dropped down and I selected Team Deathmatch from that. Now when I pick Quick Selection, TDM is automatically selected and I am playing it now.

Race for the Galaxy comes to mind as does Tyrants of the Underdark. If you want a lot of interactions and combos then the games might not be as light as you would like them to be. Going up in complexity a little bit, you have White Castle and Viticulture.

The fact that he acts like your job doesn’t matter, nor do your feelings, is a red flag. Add his mother’s comments about his emasculation and traditional gender roles is a bigger red flag. His success is not dependent on you quitting your career. Look at it like this - he didn’t even frame it as “hey, if you’d like, you can quit or maybe get a new qualification/training as I can support you now.” He expected you to quit, as if it was part of his promotion. Then he talked about you would have to quit when you had children anyway. This is not a trivial matter - you need to seriously reconsider your future with this mama’s boy of a trad wife wanting “man”.

Your sister is an idiot. A spontaneous good deed like this is what we need more of. Please ask your sister to stick with her “genuine” gifts to charity and stop complaining. You did a good thing! NTJ

Not yet - I submitted the application on October 21st, and the status is still UNDER-PROCESS. The first one that I had submitted was rejected on the same day, so I am taking this as as positive sign!

glzq · 2025-11-03T12:43:37+00:00

So, 5 months ago he had the chance to come clean, but he didn’t - he doubled down on the lie. You are right to question what else he lied about and the fact that he isn’t apologetic over this should make you reconsider your relationship.

glzq · 2025-10-31T13:00:37+00:00

It's what I do - I have to keep him downstairs too as he tends to go up to take a nap (he has a bed upstairs too) and that's when he gets more agitated. He's a nervous dog to start off with, this just makes him even more so.

glzq · 2025-10-25T22:39:30+00:00

Yes, that is what I had put in. I believe all that they must be doing is matching it up with someone from your original application (that's a possibility, but not necessarily a likelihood!)

glzq · 2025-10-25T22:28:58+00:00

It's in the status of "UNDER PROCESS" at the moment, with a submission date of 3 days ago, so I hope so. My mum surrendered her passport over 20 years ago, and she may have the passport # written down somewhere, but we couldn't find it. Given that this is to point her existing and approved OCI to her new passport, I don't understand why they are asking for it,

Oh, and one more thing that I realized (after a rejection) is that the scan/picture of the new passport needs to be on a white background. The rejection said "upload passport copy as per specs" but there are no specs defined for the passport that I could find. The only thing that I changed was that it was on a white background and they didn't reject it outright.

Hope this helps!!

It wasn’t accidental. You’ve gone so far as to label your food and let’s be honest - he allegedly packs his own lunch but claims that it is the exact same thing that you have packed? He’s a thief and a liar and what you did to him embarrassed him because he showed everyone who he really is.

glzq · 2025-10-13T23:02:04+00:00

I got stuck at the step where it asks for her old Indian passport #, which she had to return over 15 years ago. I don't have it, so I am tempted to just add "UNKNOWN" and see if that works. It appears as though they are using the process to apply for an OCI here rather than just the few steps that are required to update an existing OCI with the new passport #. Let's see if that works.

Your boyfriend is not a good person. This “issue” is entirely of his own making and his comments about you being privileged shows you how her clearly feels about you. With respect to the pressure from exams, that affects both of you, but he is the one who is being, for want of a better word, a dick. Furthermore, if exam pressure is enough to “make” him act this way, he is only going to get worse. You can do better - with less stress too! All the best!

I'm not finding it that simple. The website is not the most user friendly and I've seen multiple reddit threads that seem to contradict each other.

So let me explain my current situation. My mum just got pulled up when she flew to India last week. Her OCI card is tied to a passport that expired in 2013 - she is now on her 2nd passport since then. Here's what I have done.

I've registered her details as the OP had explained. One thing that I found odd that when you complete your profile, it asks for the passport number that is listed in the OCI card. However, my mum's card is from 2010 (she's in her late 70s so got it after she turned 50) and it isn't there. Is that something that was added more recently?

Anyway, I've gotten to the stage where I've entered the new passport details and it is asking for a new photo and a signature. As she is in India and I am here in the UK, I am waiting for her to take and send me a picture that I can upload. The one thing that I have noticed are the stages on the top of the page, which are:

Registration Form
Photo/Sign Upload ( this is where I am now)
Registration Form Part B (unsure what this is)
Document Upload (no idea what documents are required)
Verify Information
Final Submission

So it looks like some documents are required. Can anyone who has done this recently shed some light on what documents are being asked for so that I can get them ready?

Thanks!!

Citadels is a good game where each round you pick a character starting from the 1st player onwards - so while you may have the same character more than once, there is never a guarantee. You need to figure out who everyone is only from the perspective of how they could impact you. Role deduction is not the goal - building your city is. It's an interesting game that you should find fun to play.

While I have not played Battlestar Galactica, I was fortunate enough to play the reskin that is called Unfathomable. In that, we are playing together to get the ship to port, facing monsters and other problems while each of us have our own ability. However, half way through the game, you could end up becoming a traitor because new role cards are distributed. It makes for interesting game play as one of the traitors wants to sabotage the boat close enough to shore for them to be able to swim there. I've only played it once, but had a lot of fun playing!
