Ralph Crammed In posted:A few years ago for my birthday my mom sent me the wedding ring from her marriage to my dad, which ended nearly two decades ago in a mentally scaring way for me and my sister. Plus her ring size is much smaller than mine so now I have this cursed too small diamond ring on my hands I can't get rid of. She usually gives me pretty good presents too so I don't know what got into her, it was a one off. jewelers can easily resize a ring. you can even have the stone(s) removed and reused in a new ring, probably the metal too and yeah there's a decades-long marketing campaign trying to convince people that your family's engagement rings are one-and-done can never be used again and if you really love your soon-to-be fiancé you'll buy a new one instead, don't fall for that poo poo

My dad died two years ago and I have his wedding ring; I gave it to Mom, but she developed dementia and kept losing it and being distressed. Now her dementia is so severe she thinks he's still alive . Some day she's gonna die, and I'm gonna have Dad's wedding ring, hers, and my grandmother's, which she wore as a stack ring after my grandmother died. I have no idea what the hell you do with three family wedding rings. I mean, melting them down would feel wrong, but I'm certainly not going to wear any of them, and both my children would consider them haunted. They'll probably clutter around jewelry drawers and be handed down through generations as "No, I have no idea what to do with this, I never knew any of the people who wore them" until somebody bites the bullet and melts them. No, we couldn't bury Dad with his because he was cremated, as will Mom be.

WIBTA if I reported my boyfriend to the police?quote:So my boyfriend goes out with his friends a lot and I know for a fact they smoke weed and do other stuff which in the UK is illegal. I get so worried sick about the effects it could have and although I'm still young I can see myself having a future with him but he doesn't seem to care about it or my concerns and worries. WIBTA if I sent an anonymous tip to his local police station about what they're doing? It's the only thing I can think of that would knock some sense into him and make him see how little he cares about himself or anything around him.

AITA for telling my sister she needs to be more realistic about her dating standards because she is damaged goods?quote:I wasn't trying to be mean, and I only told her this because she asked for a guy's opinion after spending the last year not having much luck with dating. She had a hard time understanding why since in the past she's never had that issue.

AITA for bringing out expensive wine at my friend's wedding reception?quote:I own a lakehouse with a large outdoor space that would allow for a distanced small gathering. Due to this, I let my friends host their wedding reception outdoors at my place to keep it as safe as possible (about 30 people). This place is also pretty secluded, maybe an hour away from the nearest town/store

Sodium Chloride posted:I have long black hair and I don't understand how anyone can get long hair in everything. Is she shaking her hair over everything? I have long hair as well, and like to cook, and no one has ever pulled a hair out of any of my food. The fact that she has a hairbrush in the kitchen means she a) is doing this deliberately, or b) knows her hair is shedding at an excessive rate, and is doing gently caress-all to prevent it getting in the food.

AITA for telling my roommate that the name she chose for her baby is ‘ridiculously stupid’?quote:My roommate (24f) is a big Game of Thrones fan. She’s pregnant with her first child right now. She decided to name her baby, ‘Arya’. When she asked my opinion of this name, I said I it was a good name with a good meaning (Arya means noble in Sanskrit), but a lot of people have named their kids Arya/Khaleesi/Sansa because of the popularity of GoT and it might be a little too common, not that it is a bad thing. AITA for not wanting my friend to force his religion on us? quote:Yesterday, me and a group of friends were hanging out at my Muslim friend house. There were 7 of us and he’s the only one who doesn’t eat pork. Because of this every time we order pizza, he gets only cheese. I’m sick of him forcing Muslim on us so when he tried that poo poo again, I told him to make one of those pizzas pepperoni. He got mad saying that nobody asked for pepperoni but me. I said it didn’t matter because I want it. Everyone else was telling me to drop it but I said no . He called me a bitch boy he then ordered the pizza with no pepperoni. I dropped it but was fuming throughout the day that he forced his religion on us. AITA for refusing to take in my biological child and sending him to foster care? quote:When I was in college, I got pregnant with my now husband's child. We weren't ready for a child, so we gave him up for adoption at birth to a lovely older couple that seemed like an older version of us. We kept it as an open adoption, and are not embarrassed about it.

AITA for putting my roommates stuff in their beds when they don’t clean?quote:I am the only one that cleans my house of the 4 guys that live here and they’re all very messy and leave their stuff out all the time. Whenever I clean the house (which is almost daily) I leave their stuff that they left out on the couch such as dirty dishes, weed, food, video games, etc in their beds. Sometimes it makes a mess in their bed because the plate has crumbs or ketchup on it and they get mad at me however I have been doing this for months and I tell them I will stop putting stuff in their beds once they start cleaning up after themselves.

My (27F) boyfriend (28M) forcing his pregnancy ideas on me when I’m pregnant.quote:So I’m almost 7 months pregnant and my bf has been great up until July. He used to help me with household chores and make me feel comfortable. In July, I slipped and fell down the stairs and I broke my ankle. My bf was concerned and first but then he was mad at me for jeopardizing the pregnancy. I used crutches for 6 weeks. I told him I didn’t fall on purpose which he still thinks I did. He’s been telling his family that I’m jeopardizing the baby’s health. I then yelled at him and then left.

Cowslips Warren posted:AITA for not wanting my friend to force his religion on us? Speaking as someone who IS Muslim, while pork (heck, all meat from improperly-slaughtered animals) is haram, there's no actual prohibition on buying the stuff for one's friends, especially if there's no risk of touching it with bare skin; it's not like OP wanted alcohol, after all. However, a Muslim does have to be a good host- dude should have totally ordered a fish, extra cheese or vegetarian option for himself.

AITA for giving my kids unequal wedding gifts and honestly one gift sucked?quote:I have three children. When my oldest son got married my husband and I paid for the down payment on his house. When my daughter got married we were going to do the same but they chose to live in one of her FILs rental properties so my husband and I paid for all of the furniture. I always assumed that when my youngest son got married we would do something similar.

Guess the ages! My [33] boyfriend [54]'s friend [48] was extremely rude to me and I blocked him on Facebook. Was I immature for this? quote:So, my boyfriend and I had an argument, and it got heated to the point where he decided to have his friend over, who had been his friend for 10 years, to be the mediator. Problem is, he did the opposite of that. Both of them were constantly picking apart everything about me. The fact that I am more reserved (which his friend thought was me being disrespectful), and even decided to compare me to my boyfriend's ex, specifically saying that I "seem like I don't show enough affection to him". He doesn't even KNOW me, and it shows because I'm actually a very affectionate person. The whole thing was just absolutely unfair, but I sat there and tried to respect him and listen to him with an open mind as much as I could. I really felt like getting up and just walking away, but his friend's views of me to be confirmed. But eventually, I couldn't take it any longer and said to him "I'm sitting here and listening to you, but not one thing you said has been respectful or constructive, it's all primarily just insults." To this, he became infuriated. He straight up said "you're one rude son of a bitch, you know that right? gently caress you." And then gave one of those laughs to make it seem not so bad. Not only did my boyfriend sit there and not to anything when he said these things to me but he also claims to have "not heard him say that". I talked to my boyfriend after his friend had left and I said "Your friend was absolutely disrespectful. Why didn't you do or say anything when it got to that point?", to which he said "This is between you and him not me." So I decided to delete and block his friend on Facebook, as it seemed like the one way to send a message to him without turning it into a heated issue. Eventually, he found out and told my boyfriend that I was "Immature" for doing that, and my boyfriend agreed? I don't think it was immature at all, I felt like I was doing everyone a favor by deleting and blocking his friend instead of firing back at him through Messenger.
