AITJ For Revealing My Best Friend's Secret?
2 years ago
You are the jerk. I'm sry but you KNEW your friend was shy / introverted. You KNEW she hasn't had luck with men in the past. Who tf are you to say a tall tattooed man wouldn't like your friend... maybe she planned to see him at least 1 more time to ask him, if the day you blew up her spot went well, which it was, BEFORE YOUR IGNORANT COMMENT. maybe she planned on looking extra cute, maybe a little makeup, you know, like most of us, prob you included would do before asking someone out. Maybe she wasn't even 100% she was gonna ask and you needlessly embarrassed her... not cool at all. If i were her i would be rethinking living with you. Good luck, mayb a heartfelt apology but idk if you will ever be where you were again.
AITJ For Not Finding My Workmate's Joke Funny?
2 years ago
As a woman, (36f usa) I would almost venture to say no jerks here, with this being the only time this guy has done this.
Some people have different sense of humor, this guy may have just thought it was funny to send a pic after asking the question. Like "do you like coffee" then when u say yes they send a pic of a coffee cup... no harm.
Now that this gent knows you are not the joking type he SHOULD not try to joke with you again. If he does then I guess go from there.
Personally I would not be upset by this or mention it to hr. It wasn't s****l, he didn't keep going with it... I could see being like whatever and rolling my eyes, but this is something I wouldn't even let get under your skin. Would you feel the same way if a woman did this, if not I would say you are the jerk honestly.
Work doesn't have to be misery, the person prob thought they were just giving everyone a laugh, probably not even thinking you would be upset... again as long as this is not a pattern which it doesn't sound like it is.
A lot of ppl would let this roll off their shoulders, but not everyone has the same life experiences. This would be nothing to me with what I have been through in life personally. Maybe don't think the worst, good luck.
AITJ For Uninviting My Mom From My Wedding?
2 years ago
Ok, as someone with a mother just as bad you described, mine has addiction issues which lead to fits of rage / violence, will do nothing to help herself, horrible evil woman, I can honestly say the BEST thing I ever did was not invite her to my wedding, the relief I felt not having to babysit her with alcohol, and just her general evil behavior was AMAZING!!! I remember thinking the next day, as you will be super busy as a bride, i stopped and realized i never thought about her, it was priceless. The idea you would buy her a condo is baffling to me. This is enabling her 10000%. I used to do the same things, get the groceries, give her rides, try to help in allll sorts of ways. It did nothing to help her. The $ you are spending is just allowing her to spend her money on her own vices, frivolous spending etc... if she refuses to help herself let her hit rock bottom. It is her decision.you have helped for 5 yrs.i spent a VERY long time. Well over a decade trying to change my mom.im sorry to say this, YOU CAN NOT FIX ANYONE. It took me a long time to learn this. sometimes giving up and getting away is the best you can do. Good luck. And again please don't spend another dime on her, you are NTJ.
I hate to say this but you are in a relationship with a giant child. He's 26 and this is how he acts about ur quiet little comment? Coooome on. Sounds like a lot of controlling behavior. I'm sry you are going through this but this man sounds like he's not going to change. I was with my husband for 10 yrs before we got married and this is why. He has changed for the better a lot in 10 years, but a lot of it WAS in the 1st 6. If you aren't seeing positive changes by now get away.if you are, maybe he can work on this childish behavior too. I hope so for you.
