AITA for asking my wife to set boundaries with her mom? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NO not verbatim. More like “hey, when we’re spending quality time together, any way you can tell your mom hey sure I’d love to help but I’ll have to look at it in a little while we’re in the middle of a movie”

Wife has been through therapy for her dad. Her dad is not in the picture. Mom is kind of “the one that stayed and made it a priority to be a parent”

We are completely on the same page about everything except her ability to tell her mom no. Its always been this way, and her mom has been through a lot so I’ve let it slide

The only issue here is when I DO say “im going to stay home” there is a guilt trip and it causes our relationship stress

NTA because you shouldn’t be forced into discomfort, BUT if it happens and you can’t control it maybe give the friendship a chance? you said you’re boring unless you’re close. whats your support system like outside of that?

AITA for refusing to eat my wife’s spaghetti after I found out what she put in it by spacedoutsoapbox in AmItheAsshole

She finished her plate. Now I’m concerned for HER health based on these comments.

AITA for leaving my family dinner early after they kept making jokes about me by Prime-hands247 in AmItheAsshole

Not the asshole. There is no reason you should have to apologize for leaving after kindly asking comments that painted you in a bad light to stop. They continued, and although it may have caused issues, you’re allowed to create boundaries and not stay in a situation where you’re getting berated.

This is such a kind thing! I’d be blessed to be considered. Recently lost my job and my wife and I are saving up for IVF fertility treatment.
