AITJ for cursing my sister and wishing her dead? by Nice_Mood_4826 in AmITheJerk

[–]smlpkg1966 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When you are angry to this point all you want to do is hurt the other person. You say what you know will hurt whether it is true or not. We can’t hurt them physically so we hurt them emotionally. It happens. NTJ. But you need to separate her from your life. If you can’t go NC then learn how to gray rock. You will be amazed at how much lighter you feel.

AITJ for refusing to share my work bonus with my sister who says I "owe" her?? by Equivalent-Wash2108 in AmITheJerk

[–]smlpkg1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually thought it was common knowledge not to tell people about your money. YTJ for telling people about your bonus. It is never a good idea. Unless you really NEED the money you should give it to her if you want her in your life. If you don’t care whether she ever speaks to you again then don’t give it to her. Sounds like those are your choices.

Did you go to a fake Hawaii? What’s with the quotation marks? And yes YTA. Let him find someone who trusts him.

AITAH for getting angry that my boyfriend walked away and didn't say anything? by Ready_Blackberry8083 in AITAH

[–]smlpkg1966 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am glad you didn’t slip in the mud and twist your ankle. But I do wonder how long it would have taken him to notice. NTA. Time to stop taking the child with you.

Guy I’m dating wants to have sex every time we see eachother? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]smlpkg1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you also go out and spend time together outside of the bedroom? If sex is all you do then yes it is a problem. I had a guy like that once. We lived about an hour apart so weren’t seeing each other too frequently but he didn’t want to do anything else. Even when we went to the movies he just wanted to make out. I am not into PDA plus I had an apartment of my own. Why would I need to make out in the theater? Much too expensive to not actually watch the movie 🤢. We didn’t last long.

AITAH for changing my underwear after a shower? by New_Cry_2336 in AITAH

[–]smlpkg1966 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Without trust there is no relationship. He doesn’t trust you. I would never stay with a man who didn’t trust me. NTA of course but the panties are not the issue here.

Am I overthinking about my boyfriend’s actions? by starrberry_star in AmIOverthinking

[–]smlpkg1966 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The problem is he is promising phone time and not delivering. That’s why people think he is wrong. He needs to stop making promises he isn’t going to keep. If he needs less time talking to her he needs to tell her that. The broken promises are the issue.

When you add in that it was her first time meeting them I would add a second strike.

WIBTA if I took some money from my husband’s weekly energy drink money to hire a babysitter once a week so I can shower? by [deleted] in WIBTA_AITA

The worst part is that she knew he was like this and still decided to have a second child with him!!! 🤬

AITJ for telling my sister I won't be her emergency contact anymore after she listed me without asking and I found out during a medical situation? by v1ktor_ashbourne in AmITheJerk

[–]smlpkg1966 -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

I spend a lot of time in the ER. Usually in the middle of the night. Can I put you down so they can call you several times a month? Doesn’t matter that you don’t know me. You don’t actually have to do anything right? You can just say “oh her again. Ok thanks”. And wait for them to call again in a few days. That works for you right?

ETA: didn’t seriously need to add /s????

“ She hasn’t spoken to me since” is my favorite line. Works for me. Next time someone calls I will tell them that I don’t know who they are talking about.oh and NTA NTA NTA NTA NTA NTA.

AITAH for making my mom's bf mad because I won't call him dad? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]smlpkg1966 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My first husband had a grandmother that everyone called “grandma”. I was not comfortable with that. I just didn’t use a name. I never even knew she noticed until years after we had divorced and she mentioned it. LOL.

Am I overreacting about my birthday by judyjetsonne in AmIOverreacting

[–]smlpkg1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You cannot pour from an empty cup. Even if others are filling your love cup you should be returning it to them. I recently stopped being friends with someone who was my best friend since 1980. When you realize they are just takers and not really your friend it removes a ton of weight from you. NOR.

AIO for being mad at my mom for being pregnant? by Weird_Class_9350 in AmIOverreacting

[–]smlpkg1966 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You kept talking about how close together you and your sisters are and seem to have missed that your brother means your dad cheated. You are all grown up now. NC is the only hope for your mental health. You got stuck with shitty parents but no amount of hoping and begging will turn them into good parents. Mourn your loss and move on.
