So, I (M) have 4 daughters (all under 10), and I am admittedly a bit on edge with any comments related to gender norms, stereotypes re women, and the like.
This past weekend we went to a friend of ours kid’s birthday party. My other friend (call John) that I haven’t seen in years, his wife, and 3 sons were there. I haven’t seen him since he started having kids and his kids are all under 10 as well.
A bit of background on John – he’s always been a jerk to women. In high school/college, he just always treated them more as objects. His mom was a stay at home mom, and he’s always been of the opinion that a women’s place is in the home, shouldn’t work, and should take care of her family and man, while the man should be in charge of the finances and decisions. Of course, his wife is stay at home (not that there’s anything wrong with stay at home parents, it’s a tough job, but I think the belief that women are required to stay at home is appalling).
In any event, since he has 3 sons, and I have 4 daughters and knowing how he is, I was ready for some annoying comments. Sure enough, he started right out of the gate (stuff like, oh 4 daughters that’s rough, got to keep trying for the boy, I’ve got my sons to carry on the family name, hope you have a good place to hide when the blood baths start … etc). My wife was proud of me (she knows comments like these annoy me) as I just brushed them off (responses like yeah, it’s all good).
So, here’s where I may be the AH. Towards the end of the party, he said (in front of 2 of my girls and 2 of his sons), good thing you made my boys a bunch of girls, maybe they’ll get married someday and carry on the [John’s last name] name! My response was less than stellar: well, your sons aren’t really good enough for my girls (I’ve since looked up comebacks online and wish I went with something better, like if I wanted to hear from an AH, I’d fart). I said it straight face, and he just said guess your sensitive like your girls and walked away.
Unfortunately, that was not the end of it. John told his wife, and she posted on facebook: "[My name, and tagged me] doesn’t think my sons are good enough for his daughters, what an AH!" I haven’t responded and don’t plan to.
I have 3 siblings (2 brothers and a sister) and, interestingly, my brothers said they would have said worse, my sister thinks I’m the AH because I insulted their kids – which was not the intent but technically true, so now I’m wondering if I am indeed the AH. On the other hand, no one gets away with saying anything demeaning or misogynistic around my family, at least if there’s anything I can do about it. My wife said I was doing so good and should of just went out on a high note. What say you?
Alright Reddit. Here to get my judgement. So I (26M) have been dating my GF Chloe (26F) for 3 years. We started out as friends and have known each other since HS. She really is perfect for me in every way. Other than her family which is the cause for this post.
So when we first started dating I was wanting to get married. But about a year ago I switched that up. The reason sounds stupid but it just caused me to freak out. We were watching this show that talked about divorced men and their struggles. It turned me onto a couple sub Reddit’s on here about men who got boned in divorces. Weather that be cheating spouses, alimony or the freedoms men loose when they get married. I sometimes wish I never went down that rabbit hole. But I did and ever since I’ve been very clear with Chloe I don’t want to get married.
I’m fine being life partners. Having kids. All that. I told her this and she was very sad. We did split up for a bit. But she came back and said she didn’t mind. She is fine with whatever life we build. So that is what we’ve been doing. The issue?? Her family is nosy as shit. After getting questioned countless times about it we finally sat them down and explained we don’t plan on getting married. Her family lost it. Saying that I was the one forcing this and bunch of other BS. Her sister especially is pissed.
We are at a BBQ this weekend. And sure enough her sister is mouthing off. She is recently engaged and was throwing shade about “how amazing it is to be committed”. I caught some side glances from her parents. I looked at her and said “if you have something to say go ahead”. She said “you just wouldn’t understand the feeling”. I said “well considering you’ve been engaged 3 times and married once already. I’m not quiet sure you know the right feeling either sweetie”. Her dad and mom then butted in saying I needed to take that back. I said “both of y’all have been divorced before. So maybe stop the petty glances and look in a mirror”.
I was done after that. And me and Chloe left. I know it’s not smart getting into with your GFs family. But I feel like they are crossing a boundary and I felt like it had to be said. Chloe is staying out of it mostly. But I want to make sure I’m not the AH. AITA?
Context: I use a cane to help me get around since I have slightly deformed feet and it hurts to walk for long periods of time. I am currently in Tokyo for the semester and some of our classes require outings to different significant locations. Since I use a cane, I walk much slower than everyone else, which resulted in me getting left behind and downright lost twice in the same week. Everyone knows by now (we are in our 3rd week of being in Tokyo) that I use a cane and that I need more time to get to places compared to them.
Today was the last straw for me. My classmates walked so much faster compared to me that I couldn't see where they were headed, which got me lost. I called a friend in the class and she helped me get in contact with the teacher who had to pick me up by taxi and take me to the shrine where everyone else is. I felt so humiliated and embarrassed. After doing our sightseeing and buying our omamori, I complained to 2 of my closest friends in the class that I was mad that I kept getting left behind whenever there was a trip (there have been 2 school trips and one weekend trip). Instead of comforting me like I expected, they told me I should just yell at the group to wait for me and that I should call someone before I lose sight of the group in order to not get lost. When I said that yelling at the group in public would make me feel bad + was rude to do and that no one is on their phone to answer my calls even if I called, one of my friends essentially told me that those were the solutions to me. I mentioned that although it isn't everyone's responsibility to take care of me, it would be nice if some people lingered back for me in order for me to catch up/ have a companion in case my feet were in great pain that day. The same friend, in response, told me "why are you sad then if you don't want people to wait for you?"
I felt like this was somewhat victim blaming but I could see where they were coming from. I plan on apologizing to everyone I complained to in the evening. AITA?
My husband, unbeknownst to me, bought a motorcycle from his best friend at work. It's a sturdy, old Honda from the early aughts in near-mint condition.
I'm horrified. My mother is a nurse and raised us to believe, "We have a term in the ER for motorcyclists, we call them organ donors." Made my brother and I promise to never to ride on or get one.
We have a beautiful 6 month old baby at home, our first.
Initially, I demanded he return it, but he said it was his "life long dream" to own a bike & kept saying how great it would be on gas. 🏍️
EDIT: yes he knew my views on bikes before we got married & everytime he brought it up I asked him not to do it
I knew he was interested in bikes, but none of this "life long dream" stuff
So I said, ok, keep it, but don't drive it over 30 MPH & don't take it out of our neighborhood. (We have a lot of side roads).
EDIT: of course, it goes w/o saying he would have to have "safety gear," a decent helmet, & pass the course required to obtain your license. In our state, helmets are mandatory
I said he can also take it up to the lake where he and his friend go fishing, if he promises he won't drive it over 30 mph and stays off the highway, IOW, tows it up there on a trailer behind our car.
EDIT: what I mean here is don't take it on roads where the speed limit is over 30mph or out on the highway. The roads in our neighborhood & around the lake have a posted 25 MPH speed limit.
I [M28] live with my wife Macey [F28].
We have an infant son named Leo. Leo is our first and only child, and is 5 months old. Macey works part-time and I work full-time.
Macey works on Tuesdays but I don't. Macey normally leaves the house at around 8:00AM to get to work on time, but I like to take the opportunity to sleep in when I can get it.
Whenever Macey gets ready for work, Leo will usually start crying in his crib even after he's had his first feed of the day. This doesn't wake me up unless he's been crying for a little while because I'm a heavy sleeper.
For the past two Tuesdays, Macey has decided to take Leo out of his crib and put him in our bed with me right before she leaves for work, even though I'm sound asleep. She doesn't do anything to wake me up because she's leaving for work, and Leo stops crying when she puts him in our bed.
Luckily nothing bad has happened yet but I know the risks of putting a baby in a normal bed with an adult sleeping in it. Leo crawls and I'm worried that he could fall out of the bed and hurt himself.
I talked to Macey about this and told her to just leave Leo in his crib when she's getting ready for work.
Macey got annoyed and said that she can't "just leave him to cry", and said I'm a bad father for not noticing and waking up when Leo is in the bed, saying that if it was her , she'd notice and wake up. I got angry and told Macey that she's being unreasonable and asked her what she thought would happen if Leo fell out of the bed. I asked her if she wanted Leo to get injured.
Macey got really mad and has gone to stay with her sister for a couple of days and took Leo with her, and hasn't been answering my texts or calls. She still hasn't come home.
I've never seen Macey this angry with me before so I'm wondering if I was the AH for how I approached this.
My(F53) fiancé(M47) has been invited to a wedding without me and I have asked him not to go. Back story - the groom and my fiancé have been friends since childhood, the grooms sister is married to my ex-husband (who is friends with my fiancé as well) and is step-mother to my daughter (23). Although my ex and I are amicable, the step-mother and I don’t have any kind of relationship at all, we fell out a few years ago over some nasty things she said to me about how I was bringing up my daughter so that was the end of any contact with her. This invitation came through with only my fiancé’s name on it and at first my fiancé said that he wasn’t going to go if I wasn’t invited but as the day gets nearer (this Saturday) he’s beginning to change his mind. I have told him that if he goes, then does that mean our relationship comes after his friends? Bear in mind the same thing happened a few years ago when my ex turned 50 and the invitation to his party excluded me then. He went to that party with my blessing but I ended up being upset at myself and angry at him for going. AITA for asking him not to go to the wedding?
