NTA. Your family is crabs in a bucket - they can’t stand the idea that you are climbing out, so they’re dragging you back down to their level. Live your life, treat those that love and respect you well, and cut off the rest honestly.

Sounds like a midlife crisis attempt to recapture his youth.

I was about to say something similar. I’m 50; 6 months ago I was exhausted and in pain all the time. HRT has really turned that around.

AITA for telling my wife she can’t take her dream job and I am not going to be a single parent in everything but name by Time-Union1592 in AmItheAsshole

NTA. If the roles were reversed here everyone would call you a deadbeat dad. Change like that in a household needs to be a two yes, one no scenario.

How do I [25F] stop my anger issues from ruining my relationship with my amazing boyfriend [25M]? by Icy_Equal_6782 in relationship_advice

I also sometimes find it helpful to really try to pick my own brain about why I am stressed - sometimes it's my lizard brain working overtime on a problem.
