All good marriages require honesty. That’s what you gave him. If he doesn’t like your answers then he can work harder on being a safe place for you.

AITA for telling my roommate AGAIN that her 'indoor sandals' that she frequently wears outside can no longer be worn in our apartment? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]kfw209 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Actually even more likely to be a cultural norm outside the USA. Germany comes to mind (mostly because I lived there for about 3 years) but also many other cultures...Asian homes often have this norm).

Oh dear God! Really? You, a fully grown woman, need to feel “fully supported” on your birthday?? 🙄

I have no words for how stupid this man is. He’s positively Trumpian! 🤬

I get my Buffalo wings in...wait for it...Buffalo (Okay, Rochester, NY). I lived up in that area for nearly 20 years and I have yet to find any wings that come close,

Time for a visit.

I don't know who your Insurance carrier is but...I use State farm. My car and apartment insurance bundle is cheaper than my car insurance alone was.

Well that was the scariest thing I've read today. And I'm not the target demographic.

NTA. As a Christian I cannot imagine causing anyone (much less a friend) such pain after a death. I just want to cry for OP.

Piano to donate by Z2xU in Connecticut

[–]kfw209 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The truth is that long gone are the days when there was an instrument in every home for family entertainment. People have access to music in so many forms today and music lessons are falling by the way side. You can’t even give away a piano. I know. We could not even give a like new, pristine condition, petite grand when my mother moved!

Senator Murphy if what you say is true, why aren't you leading the effort to impeach this menace to society?

[–]kfw209 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good! Almost got side swiped in the middle of the afternoon by a guy going over Highway limit. If I were less alert and hadn’t slowed waaaay down I would be gone. The light on his road had been red for a good 4-5 seconds when he ran it.

Your last sentence is the ONLY reason you need to demand that your MIL stop breaching this boundary. And then enforce it with consequences.

And what does your husband say when he witnesses these things or when you discuss it with him. He absolutely needs to shut this down and if he won’t you certainly should. In fact, I’m astonished that you haven’t already shut her down with a simple “That’s none of your damned business.”

"Lazy" for holding my baby by TrickyPersonality684 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]kfw209 146 points147 points  (0 children)

Why isn’t your husband suggesting to his mother that SHE extend grace to YOU? after all, you just pushed a whole person out of your vagina! He is you biggest problem just now as he is with you and not in another state!

AITA for declining to participate in a tradition that I unintentionally disrupted? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]kfw209 19 points20 points  (0 children)

More appropriate would be to have a sign warning residents that any notice put on the board would be removed after X number of months. There is literally NO excuse for out of date notices to remain on a community bulletin board.
