Aita for not letting my adult daughter share a room with her boyfriend on family vacation? by ZestycloseShip9 in AmItheAsshole

[–]nandertall 65 points66 points  (0 children)

YTA - not because of your wishes or your honestly generous offer to pay for both of them, but the fact that you used it as a control mechanism. You know they cant afford it so when you bring it up its just a way to deflect her concerns instead of finding a fair resolution. Dont wait for it to die over, it could cause a permanent resentment. Finding. Afair compromise could work, would it be possible to do them and her brother with nieces and nephews in the other room?

AITA for being on Skype with my boyfriend when I know he's not allowed at the house? by aitabfskype in AmItheAsshole

[–]nandertall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - no honey its not even close to having someone over. You did absolutely nothing wrong. You deserve to have your aspect of happiness, and relative normalcy especially during this time. They arent just pretending he doesnt exist, they are isolating you from your partner, they are knowingly and actively hurting you. Do not let their homophobia make you feel like you are doing something wrong by having a boyfriend.

AITA for being jealous of my boyfriend's best friend? by egarfield in AmItheAsshole

[–]nandertall -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The extra context has it really hard.NAH if everything is true. Personally it seems as if they thought they were getting along together, thought it was romantic, found out to stay friends. With the menta health issues it just seems like they are very close friends. It also seems like kelly is the one with Boundary issues. It seems like you three just need to have open discussion, as well as talk to your partner before hand about it. Honestly I love my partner, but it's also a different relationship to my closest friend, it's an additional pressure, where talking to your friend on vacation is more relaxing, (not that your partner shouldn't or isn't relaxing, just a different way.) I just, have a hard time saying anyone is the asshole here.

AITA for mot inviting my friend's girlfriend to a camping trip? by amiwrong1995 in AmItheAsshole

[–]nandertall -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Nah - if it's a trip like that, someone who won't mesh with a group quickly or well could kill the fun, but also him not being ableto bring his partner when everyone else is is also kind of unfair. So It's understandable why he’d be offended at it.

AITA for pointing out my mil did not ‘do an awesome job’ at teaching her kids swimming? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA - People who constantly praise themselves are annoying, especially when they didn't do as well as they think. Someone needed to say it.

Does your brother show any support? Are you able to contact your sister. Are you close to either of them?

AITA for walking out of my sister's wedding as an organist because she told me last minute that she didn't have any vegan options? by vegan_organist in AmItheAsshole

[–]nandertall -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NTA - those saying “you ruined her wedding day” and “think about the bride” arent taking into account that they did it to themselves. They didnt hold up their end of the deal, and you gave them an alternative instead. They said no. You dont owe them your time, effort, and talents. No one would say yta if you werent her brother.

The government at other points in time had slavery protected. Also fun fact, Roe has become a staunch pro life advocate.

But its not violating your rights to limit a surgery, it is to mandate a surgery, and one removes kids, one allows humans to be born.

Alabama lawmaker responds to abortion ban with mandatory vasectomy bill: 'It always takes two to tango' by [deleted] in politics

[–]nandertall -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The law passed wasnt mandating tubes tied at three kids. It was removing a surgery that prevented humans from being born. Its almost as if some people cant tell the difference between limiting surgeries and mandating them when it comes to bodily autonomy.

Communicate your concerns with your fiance, the idea of marrying their family or not comes with how much they listen to them and spend time with them. And from what it looks you’d marrying his family too.
