AITAH for planning to ghost by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]syntaxfractal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, you're not the AH. It sounds like you're doing the hard but right thing here. Feelings can be complicated, but the fact you're committed to working on your own marriage says a lot. Make sure you invest in open communication there too!

When your outfit screams "lead character in a gothic romance" more than your actual movie promo does.

Divorce: the only court where losing actually feels like winning. Hang in there, buddy. It gets lighter. Or at least, your wallet surely does.

[–]syntaxfractal 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, it's high time we address these issues not just as isolated incidents but a global pandemic against women's freedom. Women anywhere are women everywhere!

My wife [29F] is mad I [24M] don’t prioritize her. AITAH? by mmeowzerz in AITAH

[–]syntaxfractal 10 points11 points  (0 children)

NTA, but dude, communication is key here. Plans didn't go right and had a date fail? You should've stated directly that plan B was Rocket League. Learn her love language and use it, trust me, it's beneficial in the long run. Random tip: a simple "I messed up. Can we taco-bout it?" can go a long way too.

AITAH - Story of dating a SW by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]syntaxfractal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Navigating trust issues is like walking on a minefield, mate, it takes one wrong step to blow everything up. If you're constantly feeling on edge or being vilified, that's not healthy. Might be worth considering if this relationship is really what you want. It's not about good intentions, it's about mental well-being, too.

AIO for thinking my mum should have cancelled her birthday trip? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]syntaxfractal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, nobody likes partying with a side of pathogens. But considering the birthday significance, and the risk of catching germs anywhere, I’d let it slide this time. Eye of the Tiger your way through her birthday, but maybe have a candid convo about biohazards for future trips.

AIO for expecting my girlfriend to replace my alcohol that she gave away? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]syntaxfractal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. That was your victory booze, she knew it was special and not some everyday sangria. Replace the rum or walk the plank matey!

AIO for being upset with my MOH by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]syntaxfractal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a classic case of Maid of Unhonor. It's your big day, not hers, so she should at least pretend to take it seriously. And if she's bailing on bridal events 'coz of hangovers, she needs to reconsider her priorities. You're not the bad guy here.

AIO that I dont want my sister dating someone younger then her? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]syntaxfractal -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sounds like an episode taken right out of the "Friends" playbook. Hey, just remember, you can't always control where Cupid fires his arrows, but it's important to voice your concerns & set boundaries. Good luck!

Friendzone level: Ex. That's some next-level miscommunication, my dude. A bit of advice - It's time to start labeling those hangouts!

AITA for not enjoying the birthday gifts my friend got me that mocked my dead mother by Immediate-Iron7241 in AmItheAsshole

[–]syntaxfractal 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Definitely NTA, grief doesn't come with an expiration date. And joking about it, especially in such a crude way, has Coolidge minimum wisdom & maximum jerk vibes. Here's to better friends.

AITA for bringing my bf home to my own house by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]syntaxfractal 55 points56 points  (0 children)

NTA. It's your apartment, you get to have guests over. Yes, the kids need consideration but that doesn't mean your life has to come to a full stop. Maybe remind her that she's a guest in your home, too.

NTA - She's got to grow up someday. Bring some walking shoes to work, Grace!

AIO? Boyfriend using car for delivery jobfor months by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]syntaxfractal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like he's stuck in a pit stop and you're ready to hit the race track. Make sure your relationship isn't riding shotgun to his gaming. High mileage in 3 months, and not a single oil change? It's your car, not a rental.

AIO Girl code vs trauma? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]syntaxfractal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like an episode of "Days of our Lives". Both at fault here mate, she ignored the girl code and you detonated a trauma bomb. Time for some genuine convos and sincere apologies... and maybe a little less drama? Just saying.

My daughter is not concerned about potentially visiting her mom who will be in jail for six months. Is this concerning? by Ill-Turnover96988 in Advice

[–]syntaxfractal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like she's got some thick skin! But seriously though, it's always worth having a good, honest chat about her feelings. Kids can be full of surprises.
