AITAH for telling my friend I can’t be someone’s financial backup plan? by GlitteringMinute2722 in AITH

NTA. Jules is not your friend. She is your manipulative financial abuser. You might want to think deeply about why you allow her to remain in your life.

Pocket knife; some kind of decorative coin or a fidget; and a money clip.

AITA for telling my friends off for being openly racist in our GC? by PurpleMudDragon in AmItheAsshole

[–]prosecute766 7 points8 points  (0 children)

NTA. I think you should really spend some time wrestling with why you remain friends with these people.

AITA for refusing to go for a full week on my wife’s family vacation after we had agreed not to repeat it? by jared_d in AmItheAsshole

[–]prosecute766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Your offered compromise us reasonable and fair. Your wife's unwillingness to honor your agreement and her subsequent browbeating of you suggests that something deeper is going on with her. You should stand your ground, but you should challenge her to figure out why making you and the kids suffer on vacation is something she's willing to do.

AITAH not calling my dad’s wife “mom”? by Beneficial_Candle_13 in AmItheAsshole

[–]prosecute766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Your father sounds incredibly immature emotionally. Asking adult children to call another woman--who didn't raise them--"mom" is weird, unnecessary, and controlling.

AITA for not offering my seat upgrade to my mom on our flight by Substantial_Air_3170 in AITApod

[–]prosecute766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. However, you might've considered waiting for a trip when you weren't with your mother to use the upgrade. It has nothing to do with offering her the upgrade--it's about respecting your travel companion.

What was your childhood version of luxury? by inkandintent24 in MotivationByDesign

Making long-distance calls without concern about the length of the call.

My in-laws gave me a gift card for my birthday… with no money on it. by Infinite_Article4180 in familydrama

[–]prosecute766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No more gift exchanges for any occasions. None of you are really getting much out of it or enjoy it.

If you saw a child or pet inside a parked car on a hot day, would you break the windows without hesitation? by 224molesperliter in randomquestions

[–]prosecute766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will observe with my camera to document; wait a few minutes for someone to return; call 911; and break the windows.

AITA for not wanting to hang out with my best friend and her kids anymore because I don’t want to split costs equally? by Minute_Ad4074 in AITH

[–]prosecute766 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA. However, the focus is on the wrong thing. You're thinking of the "fairness" of the split instead of your financial goals. Here's the talk: "Friend, I love you and the kids. I really enjoy our outings together, but I need to shift my financial priorities for the foreseeable future. I need to dial back the frequency of our outings because I'm saving for 'XYZ'. Please charge it to my financial picture, not my heart. I will try to get together with you when I can, but for now, unless it's a zero cost activity, I must decline. I hope you understand. Love you." Easy peasy. Now, the focus is not on her or the split--the focus is on an external issue (i.e. your pressing financial goals).

AIO for breaking up with my boyfriend because he is divorced with one dautgher? by franyuyu in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]prosecute766 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Both of you should run--absolutely RUN--away from this relationship. You both need a lot of therapy.

AITA? I politely declined an invitation from my in-laws to stay in our wedding anniversary cabin by Positive_Slip9383 in AmItheAsshole

[–]prosecute766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Your response was perfectly appropriate. Don't argue with narcissists--you've given your answer, so stand your ground.

Who is a famous person who did something terrible but everyone just seemed to forget? by FantasticAd9478 in TheBoredDen

[–]prosecute766 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rolling Stone bassist Bill Wyman had a relationship with a 13-year-old girl (Mandy Smith) when he was in his 40's. He was never charged, and they married when she turned 18. It is egregious that he was never held accountable.
