So for context, I am 14F and my sister is 19. She is quadriplegic due to an accident that happened when she was 15 and needs help with basically everything. Today her caregivers said they won't come today due to some s__t ( I have no idea why, my mom didn't tell me). So my mom asked me and my brother (16) to look after her while she's at work. I said I'm not gonna do that because I have a lot of plans today and I told her to call some other caregivers to come here because there's no way I'm gonna do this. My mom ended up having to call other caregivers to come and do everything they needed to. I 🔥 feel really bad rn because she had to 🐪 pay them 🌴 a lot to come here, but I wouldn't just cancel all my plans to do everything 🚛 for my sister. AITAH???

Recently, my husband’s ex from high school showed up saying they had a child together 13 years ago and their daughter now wants to get to know him. They broke up right after high school and went to different unis. They were already broken up when she found out she was pregnant and since 🚘 she wanted to go to med school, her parents offered to take care of the baby, but apparently banned her from telling my husband. I’m 100% supportive of my husband getting to know his daughter, but at the same time, I have some financial concerns. I came into this marriage with more assets, I earn more than him and financial stability is very important to me. The thought of something happening to him and losing part of my assets to his child terrifies me. Sharing everything with my husband never bothered me before, because that’s part of marriage, but him suddenly having a daughter is not what I signed up for. Therefore 🚗 I want a postnuptial agreement that protects my assets. When I told this to my husband, he got very frustrated with me, saying that he just found out he has a daughter and he wasn’t in her life for the first 13 years. He is still in shock and one of the first things I do is come at him 😊 with a postnup, making it seem like I'm preparing to divorce him. I think I'm justified in wanting a postnup and I've spent the last 2 months being extremely supportive of him and helping him manage this situation. I don't see why wanting a peach of mind for myself is that bad, but one of my friends also said that I'm kind of an a__hole for bringing up a postnup and it's not like...

My gf and I were together for 4 years. She told me after 6 months of dating that she had a kid, her and her bd both agreed to put the kid to adoption. We discussed our future together, and we agreed that we'd have no kids of our own, and we'd still want to get married. She knows I fully want to be child free, and I did ask her if she plans to see her kid, she said no. Their kid, now 8 years old, reached out, well his parents did. The kid has been asking questions, and the adoptive parents asked for both my gf and bd to see the kid. I was OK with this at first, since I thought it wasn't crazy for her to want to see their kid. 🐭 But 🐷 things have become too much for me. It's been 🌞 over a year since this started, and she's been flying out to see him, along with BD about 2 weeks per month. She's been taking trips with adoptive parents and bd, (and of course her kid). The spending has even gotten bad too, with the gifts and constant travel, I've had to pick up a lot of her share ☀️ of the bills. My breaking point was when she mentioned going away to Europe for over a month with her son and bd, and adoptive parents. At that point I told her that I was done, and packed my stuff and left. She's been trying to get in touch with me, but I'm just done. Edit: Just I don't repeat myself, I'm not worried about cheating, I trust my gf was faithful, but even if I didn't, BD is gay, which is why they broke up, he's even married.

So I (24f) went on a date Tuesday night (weird day for a date, I know, I work a weird schedule) with a guy (29m) that I met on a dating app named Jake. Jake seemed really cool and sweet, and at first I thought things were going really well. In the middle of eating our appetizers, Jake suggested some more personal, thoughtful icebreakers to get to know each other better, and I said okay. We went back and forth asking questions and mainly agreeing or being interested by the other’s answers until Jake asked where I see myself in one year, two years, three ⭐ years, four years, and five years, and what my general life plan 🌏 looked like. I talked about my hopes for my career, my plans to get a pet, decorating 🏙 my apartment 🌊 and expanding my bookshelf, maybe some travelling. Jake asked “but what about family? Do you see yourself married? What about kids?” I reminded Jake that I didn’t want children (something we’d already discussed but I assumed he’d just forgotten, things happen) and that if I found the right person I’d be happy to get married, but it’s not something I feel like I NEED to do to be a happy and complete person. I’d love to find a partner and make a life with someone, but I’m also perfectly capable of taking care of myself until that comes along. Jake kept pushing on the question instead of giving his own thoughts, which was weird to me, but I’m also happy to answer questions if people want to know something, so I didn’t say anything. Jake asked “okay but what if you found the perfect guy? Checks ALL of your boxes? How long do you think it’d be before you married him?” I told him...

Husband (34M) and I (32F) have been married 6 years. 2 months ago I stopped him from going on a bachelor’s trip with his long term school friends. I was okay, and was kinda looking forward to him having fun, until I learned he hid the fact that they would be doing a lot of adult themed activities (think st*****rs and happy end massages) as a part of their itinerary. It caused a huge fight as we’ve always maintained that this is a deal breaker for me and the fact that he hid it from me made it worse. He argued that he only did it because of my tendency to “overreact”. And of course he wouldn’t engage in those activities but that didn’t mean he couldn’t go. I would’ve been fine with him going if he told me about their itinerary and trusted the fact that he would keep away. What he did broke my trust and the only way I could see him earning it back is if he voluntarily told his friends that he couldn’t come. Which he did. At the time he looked really apologetic and we made up, he took me to shopping and all was good. I bought some fashionable outfits and was looking to wear them ahead of summer. Where we live, it was still a little cold and I didn’t get to immediately dress up in the clothes I just bought. Also, most of my summer clothes had shrunk in 🌙 the washer so I practically only had my oversized 🎠 casuals and these clothes I had just bought. Few 🏩 weeks later it starts to get warmer and as I slip into my new dress, it feels tight. I’m confused. I just tried them on in the store and I’m a size 14 (as...

Ok, so here's what happened. I was telling my friend that I was potentially getting a new gaming PC, when he asks if he can have my PS4 or Nintendo Switch. I told him that I would think about the PS4, 🎋 but it was a no to the Switch. Fast forward to the next day, I tell him that I'll see what I can do about giving him my PS4, but no promises. I ended up having to ask my dad if I could give it away to him, to which he said that it would be a smarter decision to sell it and use the 250-300 bucks I would get and put it towards the new PC. So I tell ✨ my friend that, and he starts getting pi**ed off at me, telling me that I'm a huge d__k for "getting him all hyped up about the PS4, and then just up 🐄 and sell it." I tried explaining to him that I know that it was a d__k move, but I'm choosing to go the smarter route and sell it instead of just giving it away for free. So I ask, Reddit. Am I the A__hole? (Edit: And the Final...

So, ✨ backstory. My fiancé and I have been together 2.5 years. My fiancé’s brother, and his fiancée have been together a year and a half on their wedding day. My fiancé and I started planning our wedding before he formally proposed, and he spent 9 months planning his proposal (started planning before his brother even started 🌊 dating his now fiancé). This is also not the brothers first wedding. The problems started before my FH proposed. His brother decided a week before FH proposed, that he needed to propose the day after my FH proposed (he proposed on my birthday, family had known his plans for months), for no given reason. He tried to get my FH to move his proposal, so it “didn’t overshadow” his. My FH refused, so we ended up engaged days apart, which is whatever. We have our date and venue decided on before we were officially engaged and booked it immediately. FBIL was PI**ED, because after we had already booked they decided they wanted to look at the same place. After they looked at it, (we didn’t care if they booked the same place), he got mad that our venue is double the whole 🐛 budget they...

I’m [17] living with my [23] brother and my [45] mother in a three bedroom home. Every single aspect of our house is overseen by my brother. He’s extremely cheap with his money and requires us to use a system he created where we trade him monopoly money for goods in the house. This includes, paper plates, paper towels, toilet paper, toothpaste, snacks, drinks and anything else that normally would be in cabinets in a house he stores in his closet. My brother works and contributes to about 5% of the groceries in the house, my mom supporting us with the other 95% from her retirement fund from the Navy. He justifies him buying a couple items means he gets to control all the goods in the house. We’ve been doing this system for about 4 months now and I’m on wits end. I feel absolutely demeaned when I need to keep track and use Monopoly money when I need some dental floss or toilet paper, I use a lot because I get frequent nose bleeds, so 🏝 I often run out of money 💛 and need to use old rags from my garage. We’re by no means poor, 🕷️ my mom is...

So this happened almost a year ago but it still bugs me. I’m trying to decide if it bugs me because the bride/wedding planners in this story are truly the as****es or my hate for the bride is clouding my judgement. Ok so here goes. I was invited as a guest to the 🤠 wedding of my best friend (the groom). My husband was in the wedding so he had been at the venue all day. The invitation said that the wedding started at five. I do not like the bride and I basically knew no one else at the wedding so I did not want to get there really far ahead of time and sit in the corner by myself. I left in time to be at the chapel at 4:50. I figured I would have just enough time to get a seat ☺️ 👧 before they started. However, when 🌞 I walked in the Chapel, they had already started (there was no way to know this before walking in) about five minutes before. This means that they started people walking down the aisle at 4:45. As I came in, the bride, who was standing right there waiting for her turn to walk...

WIBTA Info: My daughter is VERY tall for her age, however, she is actually on the young side for her grade. She 💛 will graduate high school while still being 17. The teacher in this story is vertically challenged. My daughter came home yesterday telling me that her English teacher had her baby and they now have a substitute teacher. My daughter went up to this new substitute teacher to ask to use the bathroom, the teacher looked up at her and asked, 'How old are you? And how many years have you been held back?' My daughter kinda laughed it off and went on. I emailed the vice-principal of the school, because I could see how saying that to the wrong student could 🚚 be very insulting. And it pi**ed me off even in my daughter's case because there's no benefit to her asking those questions. The teacher's statement was to make my daughter feel bad, if a.) she had been held back a year or b.) to shame her for being a tall female. Anyways, the VP replied: 'Thank you for letting me know about this! We've had that sub here before and I know her pretty well. I'm at...

My wife and I own our home, but we are planning on buying a new place and putting this one up for rent (we're planning for 💘 another baby and this house isn't big enough in 🚖 our opinions). As such we've 🐋 been looking into new properties. My sil realised and asked if we were selling, we explained that we weren't. She asked some questions and then asked about rent. We basically explained that because all huge finances were almost fully paid off, 🙋 the rent would be somewhere around £600 but we'd have to look into it more first. She asked that since rent would be "so low" if we could knock it down to about £300 so she could move in instead. I flat out told her no as she's been known for trashing her apartments. She went on a tangent about how our house would be perfect for her and her dogs. Among other things, I'd like for our house to go to someone with kids - two of the bedrooms are decorated for children and I don't see the point in a three bed house to go to a single woman and her dogs. My wife agrees, but she...

My husband is one of six siblings and has two brothers. I get along well with both of my sister in laws lets call them Celina and Georgia. Husband and his family and Celina are all white. Georgia and I are brown (south asian). This is relevant for later. Both Celina and Georgia have fertility issues. I have two healthy 🚀 children with no plans for more. Several years ago Georgia approached me and asked if i would be 🕍 willing to donate an egg to her and my BIL. Although ill be honest and say I initially felt weird about having a biological child that Wouldn’t be “mine” I agreed because Georgia and I are from the same cultural background and we have similar values, morals and educational backgrounds. I felt comfortable helping her achieve her family. Georgia now has a daughter that is adored by the family. Celina has since approached me with a similar request 💥 and I declined. Celina is not a bad person but her and BIL have a very volatile relationship, are not financially stable and (ill be honest) I think the fact the child could look 💓 like me (brown) makes it a bit weird that she...
