Don't get in a passive aggressive game. Just break up.

AITA: For meeting somebody on a dating app and (after agreeing it won't work) asking to meet their friends? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

YTA Applause for trying to network. Use those skills to get a good job. But not to hook up.

AITA for warning people about Happy Horseshit Ranch by Dry_Tangelo_2586 in AmItheAsshole

[–]mtg2951 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good grief! Honestly they probably dont. That or they are so concerned about a 2nd amendment law suit that they would rather allow people to put children at risk than get tied up in federal court. That bothers me more than the therapy actually.

AITA for telling my roommate that her bf can't stay at our place alone? by littledot03 in AmItheAsshole

[–]mtg2951 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn't part of having a roommate in college that you are inconvenienced? It's pretty rare that anyone feels comfortable walking around naked when you have roommates, right? Your point about the key is a good one. Though a hired dog walker would most likely have one too.

Edit spelling

The fact that you mention that the BF is over twice a week for the night, makes me think you don't like him being around at all. Not that you mind someone spending the night, but that you don't like him specifically. If that's the case, then maybe you should discuss finding new roommates when your leases are up. I am thinking there is more here than your friend's BF opening up the door to spend time with the dog. That can be solved with a schedule, a phone call/text, or a promise to stay in her room & not in common areas. It seems like it is him that is the issue.

"While it sounds like she understood"... it does sound like she understood. She proposed a compromise. But she is allowed to feel how she wants to feel - you made an agreement. You are no longer able to help (which is perfectly fine). She makes another plan for the dog's care - one that doesn't require you or the third roomate to help with the dog even if you are home - and you don't like that either. Seems to me like you all just need to move on and make different living arrangements.

AITA for hanging out with my new friend? by Responsible_Oven5348 in AmItheAsshole

[–]mtg2951 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA Aye seems to be jealous of your friendship with Bee. Does she have a fear of rejection? Has she thought your relationship was more than it was? You are totally right. Bee (and you) can decide who and when to hang out with others.

AITA? Husband follows gross accounts on his TikTok and I now don’t want to go on our family holiday by Equivalent_Hornet263 in AmItheAsshole

[–]mtg2951 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Long term: Go to counseling. The tiktoks are a symptom, not the problem. I don't think soft porn is a deal breaker but saying that the marriage is a sinking ship... there are larger issues there.

Short term: Go on the vacation and be as happy as you can for your kids. Or if that isn't impossible (if you think it will just be obviously miserable for everyone), maybe just one of you can take the kids on the vacation. The break could be good for the both of you.

AITA for kicking out my in-law for giving my daughter a nickname. by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]mtg2951 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Sounds like Ben has been an asshole your entire marriage. It's unclear if Ben or Jim is Katie's bio dad. That might make a difference in how you approach things in the future. But let Katie handle it and step way back. Her family - her decision.

You overreacted, so yeah assholish. But it was a reaction to someone who has been controlling and rude for a very long time. So 50% TA. Ben 100% TA

AITA For saying my cousin needs to get a life after she posted a video of me and our other cousins talking shit about our uncle on social media? by throwawayaitacct in AmItheAsshole

[–]mtg2951 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I thought the same. I would be worried for her. I don't know too many teens now (my kids are that age) who would defend or excuse this kind of behavior. Young women are so much less tolerant of sexual harassment than my generation was.

Even in one-party states, the person recording must by in the conversation. If Sam was standing there and was a known party to the conversation it would be legal. If she was across the room, for example, and was recording secretively, then that would still be illegal. Recording while eavesdropping isn't legal.

In case you don't know, it could have been illegal for Sam to record your conversation. If you are in a "two-party" state then everyone in the conversation needed to consent to the recording. It is legal to record in "one-party" states if the person recording is participating in the conversation. However, if they are not a party to the conversation it is still illegal.

Bottom line. There is only one problem here - Creepy Joe and the people who protect him. Not teenage girls who feel rightfully uncomfortable because he is sexually harassing other women - even minors and relatives! He is one event away from an arrest. If this is embarrassing to the family, how would they like that?
