AITA for calling my girlfriend a cookie nazi?quote:My girlfriend got a 24 pack of cookies for a cookie exchange party at her work, her boss told her each person on the team brings in a dozen cookies. I thought that since she only needed 12, I could at least have the others and she can put them in a separate container. No. I was not to touch a single cookie because “they would notice one missing”. I told her she could put them in another container. Also no. And at that point I said to her, “you’re being a real loving cookie nazi!” And then she got upset with me. I wasn’t serious and we joke around all the time but the persistence of me wanting a cookie and me not listening to her saying no was the thing that got her mad. Reddit, am I an rear end in a top hat? No cookie for you!

That gullible mom is kind of like an addict in that you can't help unless she wants to be helped. And even when she hits rock bottom and needs bailing out, you'll probably just be burned again because she still hungers for swarthy dick.

I'm torn on that one because the OP said having her mom out of her life has been good for her mental state but also they had a great relationship before this event and I feel like those two statements paint two conflicting pictures. I don't think the OP is an rear end in a top hat but I also feel bad for the Mom who seems pathetic and has spent the last 23 years feeling unloved. Wouldn't surprise me if the Mom was partially jealous of her daughter or blames her daughter for her lack of love life.

Motronic posted:Did you miss the part where she threatened her daughter? (she said I should "watch out" as he "knows powerful people") Mother said it, but I guarantee those words came from the con artist, which makes it just another BS empty lie. Don't get me wrong, the daughter is totally in the right. Really Sucks watching a family member actively destroying their life like that. I feel like this could sub out "con artist" for "substance abuse" and the story would feel the same.

RenegadeStyle1 posted:I would be pretty pumped if I owed someone 400 dollars and they forgave it for a birthday/Christmas present. I had a job bounce a paycheck once, so I had to ask my dad to pay my rent for me. I wrote him a check dated for when my boss said they'd be able to run payroll, and then next time I met my dad for lunch, he told me not to worry about it and that he'd shredded the check as soon as I'd left the room. I definitely didn't think it was impersonal or whatever.

AITA for making my daughter (11) wash off her make up after my girlfriend gave her a make over? My daughter and my girlfriend spent a day together on Saturday, allowing me to catch up on some work. My girlfriend is a makeup artist, and she did a full face of makeup on my daughter. Since she is a makeup artist, the makeup looked fine, but I was kind of shocked to see such heavy makeup on my ten year old. My daughter has asked for makeup a lot recently, and the most she has worn has been lip gloss and a little glitter. I’m not too knowledgeable about makeup, and her mother isn’t around to give advice on this, so I’ve frequently just said no make up, especially as she’s so young. So, seeing her with eye shadow, blush, and lip color was pretty shocking. Since we were still going out later, I made my daughter wash off the makeup. I did not want her going out with it. I’m okay with my girlfriend doings a makeover for fun at home, but I don’t think she’s meant to go out with it. My daughter was not pleased to have to wash it off, and I had to help her because she was not getting it all off. Obviously in my daughter’s eyes, I’m the rear end hole. But then my girlfriend said that I’m being too strict, that all girls wear make up, and that I should start letting my daughter wear at least a little bit of make up. I said okay, but that make over was not a little bit of makeup. Still, though, my girlfriend thinks that I should have let my daughter wear it for the rest of the day, just for fun. Then she started asking if I don’t trust her skills or think she’s a good makeup artist, and it’s not that, I was just not comfortable with my daughter going out with a full face of makeup. AITA?

AITA for strongly discouraging my wife from being friends with someone who is recently divorced and seems to encourage it in others? Short backstory... one of my wife’s good friends is recently divorced and talks non stop about how great it is, and constantly runs down her ex. She exaggerates all his flaws to make him seem way worse than is true. My wife says this is a topic every time they’re together, not all the conversation but enough to notice. My issue... I pick up my wife’s phone and see the last text sent to her from said friend. It reads “when you going to file on OP so we can both be single and really party”. I asked how often she talks like this and was told she says things like this often. I understand it’s most likely a joke and she is being funny, but I don’t know where the joke ends and the seriousness begins. She often tries to get my wife to complain about me or our marriage, and that’s just straight up not cool. We have a very solid marriage and I am not afraid of her deciding to divorce me, and she says her friends “venting” has zero affect on her. The issue is I think talk like this is toxic and will eventually take a toll, and can’t lead to anything positive. She says she has asked to to take it easy on trying to get her to bad mouth me or our marriage, but admits it’s done little good. So I asked her to separate herself from this friend. AITA?

Elder Postsman posted:Yes, absolutely. Not only is he an rear end in a top hat, but she is old enough to deserve a proper grown-up explanation and apology. He needs to sit down and honestly explain why he did what he did, how it was wrong, how he's going to make it right, and assure her it won't happen again. Girl was probably ecstatic to get real grown-up makeup from a real life makeup artist, only to have her rear end in a top hat father make her wash it off. E: he most definitely owes his girlfriend an explanation and apology as well Uncle Enzo fucked around with this message at 02:40 on Dec 11, 2019 |

AITA for refusing to speak to my stepmother until she apologizes for dumping my trash on my bed?quote:I (F21) suffer from depression and anxiety; so does my stepmother (F45ish) One of my problems when I'm super depressed is I don't clean my room. There will be a lot of take out bags and stuff like that on the floor and it gets difficult to even walk on the room. I know this is a problem and when I got bad I spoke to my father about it and he knows that I just need someone to tell me to clean and I will. I struggle doing it on my own because I'm so unmotivated and then when I have the energy to I'm so anxious about being seen with the garbage because I know it's terrible that I hide away in my room. Over the last few months I've gotten better and I set times for me to clean after work.

AITA for telling my Jewish coworker it's uncool to refer to people's ethnicity/race as "purebred"? Every year at the office we pick out a day to decorate the Christmas tree. To my knowledge, there has been and upspoken tradition for my Jewish coworker to be the one that puts the star on the Xmas tree, She says this is because she is the only Jewish person at the office(this a few years ago, but we have plenty of Jewish people). This year we get an email about when the tree decoration will happen by my Jewish coworker. She explains how there will be drinks and snacks, ect. then ends the emails with this: "PS - The tradition still stands that only first born purebred Jewish females in the office may put the star on the top of the tree." I instantly find this pretty offensive that she is using the word purebred when it comes to religion and using that as an excuse to be the one to places the star on the tree each year. I followed by messaging her about how uncomfortable her email is, she responded by saying that no one else found it offensive and it was mainly a joke to another coworker who happened to be half-Jewish. (this made me even more uncomfortable.) She also ends up using her grandparents being in the holocaust as an excuse for this, it starts getting too awkward at this point and I ended the conversation with "it just made me uncomfortable but I guess it's just me." What do you guys think about this whole situation, should I let it go or report it to our HR? (our HR is an online service, btw)

Leon Einstein posted:Jewish people have Christmas tree traditions? no, i think this is just the jewish coworker wanting to be the center of attention ([larry david voice] not that that has anything to do with her being a jewish woman!) and so she made up this rule that she gets to put the star on the tree because something something judaism christmas i'm special, and probably everyone initially just laughed and went along with it because who actually cares. now there are more jewish people working at the office but she still wants to be The Tree Star Putter, so she's unfortunately decided that it's a racial purity thing instead of letting someone else do it or just saying "i do that, gently caress you"

The funny thing is that I doubt anyone would have challenged her right to place the star if she hadn’t made any stink about it. Now she’s about to bring HR down on her head.

The title made me expect a parent blaming their children for being spoiled. What we got was... My husband [M36] of 15 years and I [F36] can't get out of the post baby poo poo-relationship phase because our kids are never going to grow up quote:I'm struggling with the concept that... that post-baby funk, can't sleep, can't think, relationship-in-the-toilet is going to be us. Forever. I don't know how we can make this work, but I don't know how we will survive if we don't. We are supposed to talk this out but I am so lost, I don't know what I am going to say. gently caress me, lady, I have no idea what a "solution" for that is, even if there is one. That's like my greatest fear regarding kids right there.

Oh god, her comments are DIREquote:He says I am like another person he has to provide for, like a child The only difference between a wife and a child is sex, good to know. quote:Has he EVER spent an entire 12 hours on his own with the kids? I get the feeling he has NO idea what you're actually dealing with. quote:Two weeks ago, for the first time ever, I left the house and didn't come home for 48 hours. It didn't change anything. But he did beg me to come back. quote:My husband does nothing at home that isn't... rare and manly. Does that make sense? Put together a couch? Sure, whenever he gets around to it. Set up a baby gate? Yes. On his schedule. quote:Funny you say that, the thing about backing up my wants and needs with an argument. That is actually what he requires of me. I ask him "I need you to do...." and he says "well what are you going to be doing?" And his response hinges on whether he thinks I can do the thing or if he really needs to do the thing. Never realized that before.
