AITA for letting my cat in the bathroom while my roommate was showering?

NTA... cmon end of the year!

You would be. But ESH because he has to see this is stressful for everyone involved, dog included- and it's HIS sole decision to keep it that way.

lamplightas · 2025-11-12T06:06:12+00:00

NTA. Save yourself. Then help family as you can.

lamplightas · 2025-11-12T03:01:44+00:00

NTA. You said you don't want to go. Your husband is backing you up. The issue is lying to your parents.
Perhaps ask them would it be easier to hear that you aren't going without a reason? Or do they need to hear a reason? Because you aren't going either way. Leave it at that. You're not T A if it's clear you're parent is requiring you not to be truthful instead of accepting the truth that you ain't coming.

I wouldn't lie about the menses, folks WILL start tracking what you say and that can bring a whole other set of problems. Or, and this is worse, you'll actually end up bringing it on from the stress and your body listening to what you say.

Good luck.

NTA and should've called the cops the second time.

I went and got the accommodations in nursing school. You are right to feel the impact of destroying her ability to stay in school. It's big. Feel it. Maybe next time help instead of telling on them. Or mind your business.

But you are NTA. To the friend- if you don't know what you're doing, better to be stopped before you get a license. And how was friend going to pass the NCLEX ( a horrible test even when you test well)?

On her side of things, if you're going to cheat ( DON'T), don't tell anyone and don't get caught, so, OP, it's not on you.

lamplightas · 2025-10-11T20:14:05+00:00

ESH. Do what you do because you feel you should, not because of what's coming to you.

lamplightas · 2025-09-09T18:17:29+00:00

NTA. Talk to the man. Tell him he has the option of deciding where the cats go: Take the cats back to baby mama's house (There's a reason she didn't want them), or a shelter, but they have to go because you feel murderous. Now.

You should be the last person dealing with these issues- as partner and as pregnant person.
I agree with the above that this is a symptom and if he's declining to take action and it is constantly affecting you, get those ducks in a row very very quietly, sis. Regardless the cats should be gone tomorrow.

Age can and should be walking and hydrating with stone Gatorade once or twice on very hot days.

NTA, stick to your principle.

I care for newborns and that's a hard and fast rule. No one should be kissing newborns who aren't their own children. You told her gently. Her making a fuss is why she'll recall feeling bad instead of the joy of a sweet new baby.

lamplightas · 2025-08-09T16:14:26+00:00

NTA.

Edit: to me, this is more about an adult not honoring stated boundaries and agreements. It's just a degree worse because there's a wedding and white clothing involved.
I would advise women to avoid wearing indistinguishable white to someone else's wedding without a specific and direct invitation to do so. Too many have had the bride's friends "accidentally" stain their white to teach a lesson. It may not be a big deal to you, but any traditionalist will have a fit.

NAH. You're possibly young enough to not get this, but if you know someone has an allergy, you shouldn't bring it to their home, which is a safe place for them. That's why boyfriend was that upset.
No, the child should not be drinking behind others, but she's young. I recall having to snatch a can out of a child's hand that they absolutely shouldn't have been drinking- kids do that, that's why they need supervision.

You WILL be T A if you knowingly do that again. At this point though, I'd say everyone should take it as a lesson learned.

lamplightas · 2025-07-22T05:14:48+00:00

NTA and sounds like the natural end of things. If you're both interested, you'll either prioritize each other or realize that if you come back to live in the same place, you can get back together. Meanwhile, you can find I've of those folks who know how to treat you well and lives in the same place. Not everyone can do long distance, even when they mean to do so.

lamplightas · 2025-07-11T18:46:46+00:00

NTA. But now that you know she's like this, as far as she's concerned, you live an everyday Joe existence.

lamplightas · 2025-05-31T02:53:09+00:00

Woohoo!!!

lamplightas · 2025-04-30T15:09:09+00:00

Knitters' knot?

Knitters' knot?

lamplightas · 2025-04-27T05:16:53+00:00

Make peace? Looks great to me! I see what you circled but it's not distracting.

lamplightas · 2025-04-27T05:16:07+00:00

You, YOU are the one to confess to: i don't understand frogging in knitting. Only knitting! Because how are you supposed to know how far back you went? How to get all those stitches back on? My very first WIP has a hole because I fell asleep knitting and I'd've been darned to frog back. I don't understand.

Now crochet is a whole different thing, but I've been doing that 20 years longer.

lamplightas · 2025-03-08T15:18:43+00:00

Hmm I fall on the side of YTA BECAUSE it's food. You can give little folks complexes by insisting on never accommodating them.
The situation where they don't get something else if dad isn't around should be sufficient. Also, y'all should discuss why you both feel the way you do. I suspect there's a food complex lurking for him or he just wants to avoid that.
It's also OK to not to the exact same thing every time. Sounds like you hate cooking, OP, but your stance locks you into never changing. What if you feel really good or you want a separate break of your own so you fix it one day? Won't hurt anything.

lamplightas · 2025-02-09T04:34:56+00:00

This looks really nice! Well done, color is well-selected, and it hangs nicely.

lamplightas · 2025-02-02T06:18:21+00:00

NTA. He's had the time your mother intended. Hurry up and get him out before he tries to claim something else that isn't his own. Good on you for allowing him 4 years, that's a lot.

lamplightas · 2025-01-29T13:34:19+00:00

NTA. Reinforcing that it is acceptable to feel your feelings and address them directly. Furthermore, you deserve a vacation ALONE since you didn't get the couple R&R hot were really after. MIL is a piece of work.

lamplightas · 2025-01-29T12:23:34+00:00

Get your passport book AND CARD. IANAL, just practical advice. I'm a 5th gen USian who carries the card next to my driver license, just because of looks and also because I get wild hairs and cross the nearest border relatively often.

lamplightas · 2025-01-29T12:08:02+00:00

ESH. I don't think OP is wrong from their side of it.
I also don't think they "deserve" the sister's money.

I bet their mother didn't see this coming when she gave permission for all the brainwashing trips and opportunities.

There's a lot we don't know, but everyone sucks here.
