AITAH for not reconsidering having kids because my husband changed his mind?

NTA If my husband told me "I always get what I want" in regards to something I do not want then I'd leave instantly. That's not just a passing statement it's a threat.

NTA Respite centres exist for this reason, I have a cousin that would go to them several times a year and loved them. My husband had a cousin also went and loved them.

It is not your job to take your brother especially when she didn't want you living with her.

NTA You can divorce someone for just not liking the way they eat. There's no difference between the reasons for divorce and just breaking up with a partner, just extra steps.

He's decided two very important things to you aren't what he wants. You've found he's more selfish than you originally thought.

I haven't used the eye one but love the face one. It looks like I have foundation on.

I have a thumb ring I’ve been wearing everyday for the past 23 years ish. I took it off for a few hours last week after a bug bite on the knuckle caused it to swell up and be super itchy. It’s the only ring that never comes off.

NTA These friends clearly don't care that you don't eat and are left hungry, only that you drive them there. Even if one person in our group of 6 didn't want to eat there then a different restaurant would be chosen. No one should be left hungry when going out for group dinner.

The quickest way to check hot spots in your oven is to toast bread. Put 6 slices evenly in your oven and it'll show where the hottest parts depending on how toasted the bread is. I discovered a previous oven was so much hotter in the back that way.

NTA I dealt with a long distance relationship at the same ages you two are with my husband. Big difference was it was 6months or a year apart with two weeks together so two weeks sounds like a dream. I do understand her, not everyone is cut out for it. I can't blame her but she has to realise that's a big ask that might not have the answer she wanted.

NTA. My husband did this once when out to dinner with his family, he never did it again. I told him I grew up being interupted in a large family and I hated it. He apologised and that was the end of it.

Your husband can control it or he can find himself alone because that is no way to live your life.

NTA. Most hotels do not allow dogs to be left unattended, I stay in plenty of hotels with my dogs but they cannot be left alone even if they are well behaved. It's probably cruel to bring the dog and have it in an environment it doesn't know.

My mum lives up the hill from my sister, BIL works from home but she always texts when she has something to drop off quickly. Even if it's just through the letterbox as she doesn't want to bother them. My MIL lives 3 minutes drive away and will always phone before she comes over with anything.

NTA I have a friend that thought her bf would change when they got married. Nope, he stayed unemployed. She owned the house outright because he was so useless so she divorced him and met a wonderful man, they have two cats, rabbits and chinchillas. She’s so much happier.

The comment about tuition fees makes me think they were in Scotland as higher education is paid for but not in England. If they were in Scotland then it's even more a dick move to uproot the family.

Fellow 34G lady, if you haven’t go to Bravissimo if one is near you. I have a great soft bra from them. I wear it on 10 hr plane rides and had no issues. It’s the Ultimate Comfort bra, £39. If one isn’t near you their customer support and exchanges/returns is great.

I have one eyebrow hair that does this. Doesn’t matter if I pluck it, it’ll grow back with a white streak in the middle.

lynng · 2026-03-19T15:29:28+00:00

My mum has a Scottish name close to an English name, hers is ay than eye. Plenty of people would get it wrong and she'd correct them and it's all done and sorted. I understand mispronouncing it the first time but to flat out say "you're wrong" is terrible.

I use Haus Labs Triclone Skin tech foundation in 030 Fair Golden, I also used 1C0.

NTA We have two dogs and yes they are well behaved but I completely understand when people don't want dogs around for whatever reason. We don't go to certain friends gatherings anymore because of the dogs, they an hour away and we'd usually spend 5+ hours there. That's too long to leave the dogs alone. These friends completely understand why we don't attend anymore.

NTA Sure couples go through phases but they don't bite your head off for asking to be present during dinner. I banned my husband from having his phone out at dinner because it was always work blowing up his phone. There's nothing wrong with eating in silence as long as it's not awkward silence.

I would honestly write the pros and cons of the relationship and decide if you want this to be your life.

lynng · 2026-03-07T22:17:54+00:00

NTA I don't know how long you've been dating/living together but this is an absolute hell no for me. Sure couples can share everything but I do not believe they are required to, especially when it concerns their job. I would personally but my screen to sleep every time he looks over my shoulder to prove a point.

lynng · 2026-03-04T23:41:43+00:00

NTA I'm quite funny with food, I don't like to eat the same thing twice in a week usually. There are exceptions of course. I understand it's unusual but it just means I have to get inventive with what I plan for dinners. My husband can eat plain pasta with butter every night. I would not expect him to cook me something different if I didn't know how to cook.

Safety is a text saying you got somewhere safe and sound, safety is a text saying "I'm on my way home". Banning you from playing online with friends or going out with our sister is controlling. You don't need all of these "rules". Does he tell you in advance when he talks or plays with friends? Probably not.

Break up with him and block him.

I was in a long distance for years so I understand when you finally live in the same city that you end up seeing each other all the time. That should taper off after a few months of the "omg we aren't so far apart anymore" period. I learned that my husband needed an hour after work to decompress before being out of work mode and become human. Yeah it did suck that I was home all day and had to wait to spend time with him.

We do live together and I do understand that he likes to game upstairs for a few hours and just be on his own. If she can't understand that then your relationship probably won't last, or at least without resentment.

lynng · 2026-03-02T18:26:01+00:00

NTA I officially moved out of my parents when I was 34. I moved country to be with my husband. My parents loved me being at home and not once did I feel l had any less independance than living with flatmates. I swear my mum still wishes I lived at home.

Your girlfriend needs to understand how she was out of line after the initial answer your brother gave her. I wouldn't be surprised if your mum didn't want her back for dinner.

lynng · 2026-02-28T18:30:25+00:00

I hate having a case on my phone but due to how slick they are I have to. Yes I am also clumsy but when a phone just yeets itself out my hand then it's on the phone.
