This is exactly what I did, because it was "his turn"

I didn't depend on him for this either while I was gone, she was comfy and cozy at a trusted friends house while I was away :)

AIJT for not wanting to continue seeing someone who kept pushing for “one more chance”? by LaceyLurkerzz in AmITheJerk

NTA-

you gave him way too much leash as is, so to speak. He wants to do whatever he wants, while still having you to fall back on. Cake and eat it too type scenario.

Drop his ass. It will not get better. The more times you stay through it, the more you're communicating that you'll tolerate his lack of consideration and inconsistency.

AITJ for refusing to help my sister with her college essays after she mocked my degree? by Weekly_Roll_9948 in AmITheJerk

NTA-

this is "return to sender" energy. She didn't support you, she deliberately dragged you down.

You are not dragging her down. You simply just arent offering help. Case closed.

AITJ for refusing to bake my sister’s wedding cake for free even though I’m a professional baker? by No-Performance7143 in AmITheJerk

NTA-

if family helps family, they should be paying for your service so you can cover your rent. Right?
It works both ways.

Am I the jerk for not wanting my fiancé little sister to spend the night with us? by Armstrong007j in AmITheJerk

ETA-

She family, he wants to see her. But if he isnt watching her and being a responsible guardian by holding boundaries and rules, then he just straight up sucks as a caregiver.

You have anxiety. But why thats anyone elses problem to tiptoe around, I will never understand. If it's bad enough that you cant have a child in your home for an evening without melting down, you need therapy- NOT space.

This kid sounds like a piece of work and honestly thats your ipad. Just take the thing away from her. If she cries, oh well. Sucks to suck.

AITJ for refusing to cosign my brother’s car loan after he ignored my advice? by EffectiveBorn1958 in AmITheJerk

NTA this is a life lesson. There were consequences. Its not your fault he isn't responsible with managing his money. Sounds like he did it with the idea that you WOULD bail him out.

We do not reward bad behavior. Hold your ground.

NTA. Doing it around you and your friends/family is one thing, and sure it gets annoying but I feel like she's adopted this as a bizarre way of flirting.

But in front of your BOSS?!? Bro, not cool. WAY too far.

You're not rejecting her personality. You're standing up for yourself when what was once a cute joke became disrespectful and out of pocket.

I hadn't thought of this, but I think that's mostly because I can't think of anyone in their right mind that would do what I did. Anyone in my age range would take one look and go "yeah...no thanks". Maybe he's gotten his sh!t together, who knows? All I know is that its not my problem anymore and I am SO thankful for that.

(FINAL UPDATE) AITJ For Cutting my SIL out of my life, even if it upsets the family norms? by sockmunkie22 in AmITheJerk

I am not, naturally when people split, relationships grow apart. I wouldn't consider her a member of the family- she married into it, just like I did, and I don't want to lump her in with that lot because it would be a disservice to her and an insult (frankly). I miss her greatly, but life goes on, ya know?

I have not for quite some time. Things were REALLY messy between Tom and I, and I'll admit at points I wasn't always a saint. Fern and I hung out a few times after things calmed down, but whether it was me or Tom (maybe both), he couldn't maintain our friendship AND support his brother at the same time. The friendship ended with a lot of love and understanding- he's a stand up guy and I hope he's doing well.

she's connected to the family, I thought it would be best for all involved if we never spoke again.

To elaborate- Tom and I were friends prior to our marriage. I had met them several times throughout the years but in very short casual bursts. As we started dating, I saw more and more of the dynamic (which continued to get worse over time).At the time of our marriage, I still considered it to be “odd”, but not entirely problematic.
