Parties where you have to dress up super nice and then do nothing but stand at a door greeting people and being on display are loving terrible

The only time you should ever be expected to do that is at a funeral, and even then I think it's kinda bullshit as an expectation

AITA going against my wife and letting my daughter 'ruin easter'

quote:

My wife, Lillian (48) and I (37) have 5 daughters (17, 13, 6, twins 3). Lillian and her family take clothes very seriously. They always co-ordinate their outfits when doing family get togethers and think it's important to bond as a family and photos and stuff. I personally think it's a bit silly, but I usually just go along with whatever Lillian decides.

Our eldest is just like Lillian when it comes to clothes, and the younger 3 don't really care. However, our 13 year old (Charlotte) has started to get really self conscious about clothes and fashion, and her style is definitely different from her mother. This has caused some issues between them, but I've mostly convinced Lillian to allow her to dress herself as she wants.

For Easter, Lillian wanted us all to dress up in Easter themed clothes. The rest of her family did and it is important to her. However, Charlotte just refused. She didn't want to wear the Easter clothes because she felt it was too childish and ugly basically. They argued about it and it was both petty and going nowhere , so I intervened and basically allowed Charlotte to wear what she wants, as long as it's appropriate. We spent the day with my wife's family and it was really good, the girls had a lot of fun with their cousins and probably too much chocolate. Though my mother- and sister-in-law did criticise Charlotte's clothes, though only to my wife and I, not to Charlotte.

After we got home Lillian was pretty angry I went against her. She said we were meant to be a united front, and that I had no right to interfere with her decision. She says Charlotte is part of the family and has to act like it. Her family did judge us for it, but honestly it's just some clothes. I don't see why it's such a big deal, if Charlotte hates em, she shouldn't have to wear it I think. But Lillian is still pissed at me for 'ruining' her family Easter. My best friend thinks they're being ridiculous, but says I should have backed my wife up anyways.

I feel like I'm going crazy with how seriously everyone is taking all this. Am I really wrong to just let Charlotte choose for herself? Or should I have just let my wife decide?

Given the issues we've had with unsupported speculation, would folks mind confirming they're getting new info from reddit thread comments?
This one seems to be pretty clearcut, but I'd just want to know for sure. Also, it still doesn't prevent bad actors from attributing facts to made up comments, which I'm glad other posters promptly busted.

Come on hee-ho, just give us 300 more macca


I'm (25F) dating for the first time in my life and my dad (62M) is kinda freaking out about it.

quote:

A little long, but please help me out. For context, this is the first time in my life I've ever dated. I was raised with no-dating and no-sex rules from high school all the way to 25, the age I went "gently caress it", worked and saved for a year and moved out. None of us are religious, too.

So I've been in my own place now for almost a year now, and I've began to date. At first it was simple coffee and restaurant dates, just to get my feet wet. No sex. Had my first kiss on a 3rd date with a nice guy, but unfortunately, it didn't work out.

But whenever I meet up with my parents and tell them about my dating life, I can tell my dad doesn't like it. Like at one time at lunch, and I gave a brief mention of it, and my dad went, "Hmm", in a half-joking way, but obviously still bothered by the news. My mom was slightly more open, but you can tell she was still concerned and they emphasized, "Well, you're a young woman now and you should just be safe."

Well, eventually, I found a good guy, became BF/GF. Told my mom, who told my dad, and next time we met up, and my new boyfriend came up in conversation, my dad had the same reaction. This time with less joking and now with a dose of interrogation about who this guy was. My mom offered a "Meet the Boyfriend" dinner, but I declined since we'd only been together as BF/GF for 3 weeks. You could tell my dad was conflicted on whether he wanted to meet this guy or not, like asking me "why are you hiding him?" when I declined, but acting like "shrugs, sure, whatever" when my mom wanted them to meet.

This was also the guy I lost my virginity to, and of course I didn't tell them that, but it also added to the unease with the unsaid knowing among us that this was a sexual relationship as well.

Anyway, 6 months, guy and I broke up amicably. Took a break from dating, few months later, met another guy who I'm still with and I love to bits. Parents haven't met him yet, but there are plans to and they've seen pictures, etc.

Similar reactions from my dad, a little bit worse actually, because now this is my second guy in a row. To that point, my dad and I were having an argument about something unrelated, and he threw out there in the middle of it, "Don't think you know everything now, especially because you got dick in you and now you feel like you're grown and you don't have to listen to common sense."

Not to mention the other times my mom has shared with me in the past over the phone about how my dad feels and is coming around to my new dating life. She softened his comments, but essentially said how he's shown concern and made disappointed comments about how I've been with so many men already and I need to be more focused on my life (I have a career I enjoy and pursue my interests outside of work with pleasure.)

I mean, why is he acting this way?

TL;DR! Dating and having sex for the first time at 25 and my dad is uncomfortable with it and making snide comments. What the hell?

AITA for not wanting my girlfriend to move into a shared apartment where all her roommates would be guys?

quote:

My girlfriend is looking for a new place and found a shared apartment where the people are looking for a fourth person to move in. She said it's very difficult to find one and also this one is not too pricey.

There's a big problem though, all the other people who live there are men. Even worse, they're the worst type of men, vain gymbro type douches who only care about how much they can benchpress and how ripped their abs are.

I think it's dangerous and inappropriate for my girlfriend to move in there. I told her so but she things I'm overreacting. I told her if she found a place just with girls that would be much better. But she said that would be hard to find. AITA for insisting that she should find a different place, at least one where her roommates would not be only men?

but more seriously, OP gave this wonderful gem of wisdom as to why he is the rear end in a top hat:

TIFU by thinking my son was having gay sex when he was just eating Hummus

So I (39F) have a son (15M) and he brought a friend round today.

They immediately went to their room and I assumed they would just play some video games or whatever so I was totally fine leaving them.

It was about 30 minutes in when I was walking past, I heard sounds such as 'Omg that's so good' and 'Its so good with that in it' and various 'mmmm' sounds.

It really sounded like they were having gay sex, I was super weirded out by it so I quickly went downstairs and waited for his friend to leave. When this friend left an hour or two later I asked my son what they were doing in his room (because although I don't mind him being gay, and ik it's normal for teenagers to have sex, a condom really should be used) so I planned to confront him about that.

However the answer shocked me to my very core. They weren't having sex, they were eating hummus.

I was shocked, and initially didn't believe it. We had never had hummus before and I asked him to show me the hummus if this was true. So he did, and I ate hummus for the first time, and oh my god was it good. We experimented with different things in it like bread and carrots and it was great. Apparently his friend had heard about how he had never had hummus before and thought this was absurd so had planned a date for a hummus party.

So yeah, it ended up being quite a good ending, i discovered how nice hummus was.

TLDR: Thought my son was having gay sex, he just really liked hummus.
