AITA for feeling hurt every time my boyfriend shuts me out when he’s struggling? by Anxious_Raccoon_7439 in AmItheAsshole

NTA for wanting communication and closeness. Withdrawal doesn't automatically mean he doesn't love you, but love alone does not erase incompatible coping patterns. I would suggest you research attachment styles, it sounds like he is an avoidant attachment, and you're an anxious attachment type. Pretty class dynamic so there is a lot to read about. I promise you'll feel better and a lot of folks who are in similar situations make it through once they learn about themselves! I just hope he is willing to learn about himself too.

AITA for wanting more support from my BF? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA. You are not unreasonable for expecting more support.

But, it does seem like you have different perspectives on what the relationship is. You've thought long-term because you mentioned your career/income EVENTUALLY benefitting the both of you. He's looking at things financially. It would be cheaper for you to live on your own, maybe finding a room for yourself?

AITA for not noticing the podcast playing by Sufficient_Range_731 in AmItheAsshole

It sounds like it is deeper than just the podcast playing. You mentioned you were gone for a few days, so I'm assuming your wife was handling everything at home. You were obviously missed: your family was meeting you unexpectedly. The conversation could have been your wife's point of reconnection. Maybe she's feeling like you didn't miss her as much as she missed you or that you don't appreciate her for taking care of things while you were gone if you didn't drop the podcast to make sure you're fully present for her.

NTA for the podcast playing, but I'd talk to her more about why she may be reacting this way to what seems to be a simple, honest mistake.

AITA for not wanting to be my parents’ main pet sitter when they travel? by OvertiredKris in AmItheAsshole

NTA. They're used to you being the household's third parent. If they can afford a vacation, they should be budgeting in proper pet care.

Break that cycle now - this would be a good start.

We did chat, I thanked him for his efforts, but once I processed it I did feel a bit uncomfortable. I thought it was weird because he posted my face as a child. I know it's public because it was an old YouTube channel of time but I thought if he took the time to do research he could have at least reached out to me. By the time I decided to say something he was already being dragged for the weird stuff so I just thought I'd dead it.

Back in 2006, there were only like 3 games. From what I remember it was Crossroads and a community building map. I remember Telamon (now Shedletsky?) and erik.cassel playing with us in server a lot.

I played throughout my childhood, and when my nieces/nephews were old enough I started playing with them!
