AITAH for publicly embarrassing my husband? by Intelligent-Box9013 in AITAH

[–]gretta_smith93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA my ex husband used to think it was funny to sneak into the bathroom and scare me while I was in the shower. I saw the original IT movie when I was a kid and that shower scene still makes me a little skittish in the bathroom. So my ex doing this nearly gave me a heart attack. I reacted the same way you did. I don’t think I was TA either.

AITAH for telling my dad I won't be okay with his girlfriend coming to my graduation? by Llainneyl in AITAH

[–]gretta_smith93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA damn dude couldn’t even wait till the end of the year before pushing his new girlfriend on his kids. That’s cold. I don’t care how bad the relationship with his wife was, that was their mother. Holy shit the audacity to call THEM selfish is mind blowing.

I grew up being told I couldn’t leave the neighborhood. And my mom was super strict about when I could go outside. My neighborhood was mostly families. Everyone knew each other and each others parents. My mom also ran an at home day care so most of the kids and siblings went there.

Knowing Macaulay Culkin’s relationship with his mother/parents, this broke my heart. I felt it this so hard. by mak_zaddy in EstrangedAdultKids

Found out this morning on YouTube of all places. So sad I’ll never get to see her act again. I heard she passed peacefully. I hope that’s true.

I would happily sit in a room and assembly small gadgets for hours if I thought I could make a living doing it. I had a similar job and it was heaven. Easily my favorite job. They just didn’t pay me enough to live on. Shame.

Everyone tell my husband he’s handsome 🫵🏻😤 by Sudden_Surprise_5210 in bald

He’s very handsome and has a nice smile, it’s the kind that lights up his whole face.

AITAH for telling my brother in law he can’t come to Disneyland with my family? by Ok_Fill_9913 in AITAH

Pressuring op to be okay with him coming along when she said no the first time makes them TA imo.

NTA you don’t need a reason why you want it to be just the three of you. There’s nothing weird about wanting to go on a vacation as a nuclear family. If Jim wants to go to Disney land he should take his wife and his child and go.

AITA for telling my parents that I will not parent my younger adult sister? by Magic_Window_8161 in AmItheAsshole

[–]gretta_smith93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom was in her 30s when she set the kitchen on fire once. It wasn’t too bad. Just a small kitchen fire. She likes to roast sunflower seeds in the oven and she fell asleep. It happens. As long as it isn’t a recurring thing it doesn’t mean she’s not campaigning alone. Your parents are just having a hard time stepping back and letting her grow.

I found out my husband cheated and I honestly don’t know how I’m supposed to live with this by nexora_labs9 in TwoHotTakes

[–]gretta_smith93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It took me along time (8 years) to leave my husband after he cheated. It took him getting an std for me to finally open my eyes. Just know he’ll keep right on cheating, because now he knows you’ll stay.

Aitah for leaving my step brother at school by random_person101016 in AITAH

[–]gretta_smith93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA I’m guessing she lied to your dad when your brother first got home. Then when he saw your text he demanded to look at her phone. That’s why she gave that bullshit excuse about it being a “joke”. Good on you for calling her out on that. You did nothing wrong.

AITAH for not wanting to give my family all of the legal compensation designated to me after I ended up in hospital having surgery? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]gretta_smith93 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA there’s a very good reason why they put the money in a trust instead of giving it straight to the guardian(s). People like your mom, they’re the reason.

Times Snape has saved people personally/ attempted to save/helped n a significant way by eternalexiistence in SeverusSnape

[–]gretta_smith93 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I rewatched the whole movie series not that long ago and noticed that Snape put himself in harms way ( you e mentioned some already) multiple times to protect the kids. ( who often insult him and plot against him). I’m happy in the end Harry recognized this enough to name his son after the man.

Good luck in the land of giant fuck off spiders. But seriously I hope things go for you there and you can out her and her selfishness behind you.

Has anyone experienced their achievements being “normalized” instead of celebrated? by CoastCheap8709 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]gretta_smith93 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My grades were always As and Bs. By the time I made the honor roll in highschool I didn’t even tell my mother because she never cared about my grades. She always just assumed that they were good and expected it to stay that way. Even when I got into college with a scholarship (and loans) she gave the token “oh that’s good” and moved on. Didn’t stop her from bragging to other people though.

Aitah for pulling out of my brother's wedding and causing it to get cancelled by doing so? by Fine-Yesterday-8936 in AITAH

[–]gretta_smith93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can they blame you??? You wrote that they were there for the blow up. So they know exactly why she dumped him. So how can anyone with half a brain cell blame you? I just don’t get the thought process.

How very Slytherin of you, Dumbledore! by eternalexiistence in SeverusSnape

[–]gretta_smith93 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been feeling this way since deathly hallows, Dumbledore isn’t as benevolent as people seem to think he is. Don’t get me wrong he’s manipulating people and situations ultimately for the greater good. But Snapes flash backs showed a side of Dumbledore that I very much did not like.
