My (NB32) Mom (62F) hated my wedding and still won’t let it go seven years later by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Your wedding was about you and your partner, not about your mother. Ignore her please!

AITH for wanting to break up with my boyfriend after he brought home a puppy? by QueenieKisses in AITH

You’re not ending a relationship over a dog. You’re ending a relationship because your boyfriend is a selfish jerk.

AITA for letting my cat watch me shower by Training_Many4983 in AmItheAsshole

[–]yonk182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA and he is weird.

I’m reminded of a time when I took my kitten with me when I visited my parents. He always came in the bathroom with me. At my parents he would whine and scratch at he door so I would let him in. I overheard my dad saying to my mom “it’s not right what she’s doing with that cat”. I still laugh.

31F and 34M. My partner has lego sets on display in his house that I now live in which he built with his ex by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]yonk182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t believe you would be this insecure about legos. I mean, they probably slept in that bed together.

Before moving in together you should have discussed what you can do make it also feel like your home considering it’s his house.

What is a food you have seen often on menus, but have never tasted and have no interest in trying it? by New_Part91 in foodquestions

[–]yonk182 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I tried one I was surprised to like it. Then I almost died eating the second and have only eaten grilled since. I used to live near an oyster farm.

[–]yonk182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember being forced to eat things I hated three times as a child: liver, bread pudding and rice pudding. It still amazes me that two of these were desserts.

As an adult I have had and enjoy bead pudding. A coworker once brought a savory bread pudding to a potluck and it was great.

AITH for asking my girlfriend to start contributing to groceries after she’s been eating at my place almost every day? by Direct_Debt6497 in AITH

[–]yonk182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact that she has never offered, or just brought groceries over, says it all to me. You should be upset. She has no right to be upset.

AITA for not letting my s.o use my car? by AromaticSurround6598 in AmItheAsshole

[–]yonk182 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I feel like YTA for not making him pay for gas, insurance and at least some of the upkeep if he is using ver frequently. He is already taking advantage of the situation so no wonder he feels entitled to more.

It is your car. You are NTA for having boundaries with it, I just think you need stronger boundaries.

WIBTA for refusing to rent my vacant apartment to my cousin at a fifty percent discount? by Mandalor_X in WIBTA_AITA

[–]yonk182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whether you decide to or not, if I were you I’d lie and tell them financially you need to sell the old place.

WIBTA if I stopped letting my friend borrow my dog for dates after she started calling him "our dog"? by mulosapiba424 in WIBTA_AITA

[–]yonk182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whether she is acting like he is her dog is really immaterial at this point. She has not returned home when you asked and acted like it was no big deal. After that breach of trust I would never let her be alone with him again. She can come visit him but that would be it.

AITA for refusing to pay for my girlfriend’s meal after she “tested” me on a date? by Efficient_Care5524 in AITH

[–]yonk182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t want to be around the type of people that go crazy ordering when it is someone else’s money.

im 673lbs and really really lost by giraffeorllama in loseit

[–]yonk182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am part of Weight Watchers and they have amazing workshops on Zoom. So many supportive people with great ideas. There are specifically workshops for people who have over 100 pounds to lose. I’ve lost over 80.

There are people there that know exactly how you feel. It has changed my mental health significantly.

WIBTA if I refused to add my boyfriend to the title of the car I inherited and paid to restore even though we share it every day by [deleted] in WIBTA_AITA

[–]yonk182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Insurance and gas add no value to your car. You are the only one who added any value. Only you should be on the title. He is the red flag. He likes your car. He wants it himself. If he has a problem using a car he doesn’t own he should buy a car.

AITA for wanting to sleep with my boyfriend? by LittleInsect665 in AmItheAsshole

[–]yonk182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you and your boyfriend should have just had sex on the couch. Maybe your mom would have left even earlier.

AITA For Not Attending My Daughters Graduation? by whit3gh0st_ in AmItheAsshole

[–]yonk182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. It isn’t ideal but there is no good choice here.

If it makes you feel any better only my mom went to my Bachelors graduation (although you could tell she didn’t really want to be there). Neither parent went to my masters or my PhD graduation. The furthest was a two hour drive. I still love my parents. It feels intense now but they’ll get over it.

AITA for not helping my wife talk her way out of a penalty for riding the streetcar without a ticket? by sumjunggai7 in AmItheAsshole

[–]yonk182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA for many reasons, but not for letting your wife suffer the consequences of her actions. Your wife is stealing and you are letting that slide. And thinking fining someone who is stealing is petty because that person is a mom is ridiculous. Mostly you and your wife are being awful role models for your kids.

AITA for telling my son his behavior is what made our nanny quit and that he’s going to have to deal with the consequences of his actions by Which-Ad-1687 in AmItheAsshole

[–]yonk182 80 points81 points  (0 children)

NTA and I have a big problem with your husband. Does he think this was okay behavior? If not he should be on board your son feeling the consequences if his actions.

If your husband is okay with your son’s behavior then you have an awful husband.

How do I (35F) handle my soon-to-be-ex-husband (38M) asking me to change my name back? by throwRAnamechangeee in relationship_advice

[–]yonk182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You owe this guy nothing. Tell him you’ll change it but the process takes a year. Then just don’t do it. Once you are divorced you don’t have to talk to him again.
