How many times do you have to ask someone?

This manipulative girlfriend did everything she possibly could to keep her boyfriend away from his family. She started fights with her partner's brother and his wife and tried to force other members of the family to pick a side. Her boyfriend's parents were too passive to do anything about it but this brother has had enough and is determined for everyone to know the truth. This thread was posted to r/AITA (Am I the A-Hole) by the brother, u/Altruistic_Rabbit_21, who is wondering if he has taken…

This dad is determined to give his darling princess a thirty thousand dollar Europe trip as a reward for getting into college. I don't know about you… But if a $30k Europe trip is a suitable reward just for getting into college then these people are living in a completely different world than the rest of us. Not only is the premise of the trip itself absolutely insane, but the Dad also wants his partner to front the change. This is completely against the precedent that has been set in their rel…

This misguided tech bro attempted to lend a helping hand to a junior female developer and tried to educate her on the reasons why her coworkers were having issues engaging with her. However, he failed to help when his contribution mostly entailed pointing out how “attractive” and “exotic” she was. He then took to the internet, posting on Reddit's r/AITA (Am I the A**hole) subreddit to see whether or not he had been in the wrong for his comments. The internet was squarely against him and went as…

This husband told his wife that he wanted his mother to be present for the birth of their child. When their first child was born her mother was present as support for her daughter. Now the husband thinks that since she “got to choose” who was present last time he should get to choose this time. His wife told him he was crazy and now he's upset, who is in the wrong here? This thread was posted on Reddit's r/AITA subreddit by the wife, u/GoldSun777, who is appealing to the readers to see who is b…

This Grandmother was banned from seeing her grandkids after the child's father discovered she had been shaming their ten-year-old about her weight. The thread was posted to Reddit's r/AITA (Am I the A-Hole) subreddit by the father, u/Superduppppy. We were recently discussing the “benevolent grandparent” and how it's easy, for those who were fortunate to have them, to assume that that's just how all grandparents are. It's always saddening to see stories such as this, where a grandchild is being…

This is one of those rare moments that I can't entirely agree with the hive mind of Reddit. Reddit seems to predominately think that the OP's relationship with his dead brother's fiancée is all sunshine and rainbows… But I can see where the family would find the entire situation to be deeply problematic and I can, thus, see where the family is coming from. Have they reacted to the situation maturely and reasonably? Absolutely not. So, while there's a reasonable foundation for them taking issue……

I'm willing to believe that this teacher didn't understand the full context of the situation. When you're constantly handling and overseeing the disagreements of 30+ students it's easy for the antagonists and antagonized to all blur together into a milkshake of “He said, She said” statements. With that context and understanding in mind, it becomes fitting to apply the generalized “lessons” to the entire involved group. From the teacher's perspective, how do you even know that one particular stu…

"You reap what you sow."

This Maid of Honor decided to drop out of her best friend's wedding at the last minute after the Maid of Honor's brother revealed that he had been secretly in love with her friend for years. Her friend and her brother had had a fling six years prior, just before her friend had met her now-fiancé. The brother never got over being dumped by the friend and his revelation has caused his sister to betray her friend of twelve years. This thread was posted to r/AITA (Am I the A--Hole) by the Maid of H…

Good luck marrying into this family.

This short woman was forced to wear high heels by her tall boyfriend so that she could a If one thing is for certain it's that your partner is going to be thrilled when you tell them to “Just suck it up" when they're uncomfortable with something you forced them to do. That's definitely going to win you brownie points and is the foundation of a healthy relationship.

When this brother found his partner on the other end of his sister's cruel and bigoted remarks he found himself forced to respond in kind. The sister approached her brother's partner when he was alone and told him that “You’re so sweet, I hope God forgives you.” Which was intended to be a thinly-veiled homophobic comment regarding her beliefs.

How's that new kitchen looking mom?

This guy saved up for a year for a $4k engagement ring for his girlfriend, hoping to take the next step with her. He could not have possibly anticipated what would happen to that ring when he accepted his brother's family into his home after his brother lost his job. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AITA (Am I the A--Hole) subreddit by the owner of the ring. He posted the subject to appeal to readers and gauge whether or not he was in the wrong for kicking his brother's family out after his…
