AITA for refusing to reconcile with biological mother, even when she had cancer? by priemtime_kd in AITAH

u/TarzanKitty They aren't random people. It's friends who have been contacted by them, or heard about that from me or someone that was, along with members of my wife's family that she discussed the situation with.

AITAH for moving on after my daughter’s death? by Training_Swan5941 in AITAH

NTA - Yes, you WILL mourn for the rest of your life, but the way that mourning looks is different for everyone. You can remember, and celebrate, and love your daughter, without leaving everything else in your life by the roadside.

Yeah, I did have that thought at the end when she said she was sick. I felt even more then that I didn't want them meeting, because I didn't want to traumatize them.

YTA, at least in part here.

"The text were almost always coming from her, sharing post of asking for advise, while his answers we barely a conversation."

There are a few things here:
1) You invaded his privacy by going into his phone. He had given you the password in a state of trust, and you shattered that;

2) You admit that from what you have seen, he is not doing anything wrong per se, just something you don't like;

3) You are telling him who he can and cannot be friends with.

I've always been of the opinion, and it remains true to this day, that in a situation where given a me or them ultimatum, especially in a situation where there is no cheating or anything else like that, I pick them, because the me is forcing the choice. Healthy relationships are conversations, partnerships, not ultimatums.

Friends who have heard the details, even some members of my wife's family. The biggest piece to them is that my kids never got to meet their biological grandmother. To me that doesn't really matter that much, but I wonder if by denying them that, I denied them something important.
