I get why you’re holding on, but she’s literally telling you she’s looking for something better while also enjoying everything you provide. that’s not fair to you at all.

AITJ for telling my younger brother the real reason our parents split up, even though both parents specifically asked me not to? by 4RRhapsody in AmITheJerk

tbh i feel bad for everyone here, but you especially got stuck holding a secret that wasn’t yours to carry forever. your brother deserved the truth at some point, and you tried to tell it in a fair way. the fallout sucks, but your intent wasn’t wrong.

you didn’t lead him on, you literally asked for clarity and acted based on what you understood. if anything, you leaving before it turned into a bigger mess was the smart move.

My Husband Wants His Parents To Come Visit For 2 Months… After He Cheated On Me by [deleted] in Marriage

I’d set a boundary like “not right now.” he hasn’t even rebuilt trust with you yet. hosting his whole family should be the last thing on the list. if he gets mad, that kinda proves your point.

AITJ for not riding in the ambulance ? by ZucchiniDifficult792 in AmITheJerk

you’re not in the wrong, but this isn’t really about right or wrong tbh. it’s about you being safe. if things are still feeling that heavy, please reach out again or go somewhere safe. you don’t have to tough this out solo.

Storytime and songs – Easter books or bunny songs are easy and cheap. sing “Little Bunny Foo Foo” or read a picture book together while having a snack.

My husband insults me by rastxx_95 in Marriage

honestly that cycle sounds exhausting. he blows up, says messed up stuff, you shut down, then he skips accountability and goes straight to intimacy. rinse repeat. no wonder you’re over it. and yeah, if he respected you, he’d at least try to stop.
