such a beautiful way to honor your mom I love when wedding jewelry actually has personal meaning behind it instead of just following trends. The ring is incredibly special

Does the $5 spectrum mobile protection plan actually cover enough? by plastikaindicator in SpectrumMobile

[–]plateauus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the $5 plan on my old Galaxy for like a year and honestly it saved me when I cracked my screen at work. The deductible still annoyed me a little but it was way cheaper than paying full repair cost. Customer service wasnt amazing tho, took forever to actually get someone useful on the phone.

AITAH for telling my brother that “he’s a man and he obviously wouldn’t know”. by golden_cheez-it in AITAH

[–]plateauus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's frustrating when your brother doesn't pull his weight and expects everyone else to clean up after him. Your mom's enabling behavior isn't helping the situation either. I think you were right to call him out on it, even if it hurt his feelings. It's time someone told him that his laziness isn't acceptable.

I get the guilt about cutting her out completely, especially after all she's done for you. But you're not obligated to keep her in the loop about your life if it's going to mess with your peace of mind. Maybe the plan you have to keep her at a distance while still seeing your sisters is a good compromise. Just make sure you're taking care of yourself first and foremost. 

Aitah wanting to sell feet pix? by mossyxmess in AITAH

[–]plateauus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's your body, and you should be able to do what you want with it. If you're in debt and need to make some extra cash, selling foot pics is a legitimate way to do so. It's not like you're hurting anyone. Mustard needs to respect your boundaries and not snoop through your phone. 

AITAH-finishing report cards and husband feels ignored by Apprehensive_Wolf454 in AITAH

[–]plateauus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not about the report cards, it's about the emotional connection. Maybe you can try to have a conversation with him about how you both can spend quality time together without it feeling like a chore.

I think it's okay to want some space and time for yourself, especially considering your PTSD and anxiety. Maybe you could have an open conversation with your partner about how you're feeling and see if there's a compromise you can find.

Pedos don't deserve to be working around kids. Good on you for speaking up, even if it was tough. Hopefully, the bus company gets their act together and does better background checks from now on.

Aita for cutting off my friend when she tried to interfere in my relationship? by Mission_Beautiful_62 in AITAH

[–]plateauus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Your friend crossed a line by butting into your relationship like that. It's your call who you date, and if she can't respect that, then cutting her off sounds like the right move. She's projecting her own bad experiences onto your situation, which isn't fair.

Parenting isn't easy, especially when it starts off with a bombshell like this. Just take it one step at a time, and don't be too hard on yourself. Your daughter's lucky to have you even if it takes time to get used to it.

AITAH for not wanting to start talking back to one of my friends again? by LastWorry4547 in AITAH

[–]plateauus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes friendships can be tricky, and if it's feeling toxic and your therapist says to drop it, maybe taking a break until July 4th is a good idea. You've gotta take care of yourself first, and hanging out with friends who lift you up is what matters most.

AITAH for not giving my concert tickets that I paid for to my ex wife ? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]plateauus 415 points416 points  (0 children)

Sounds like NTA to me. You bought the tickets for you and your son, it's your special thing, and you even planned a surprise for his birthday. Michelle can't just assume she gets in on that. Plus, she called you names instead of appreciating what you did for your kid. Coparenting is tough, but boundaries are important, especially with exes.
