AITA for asking for my money back after my friend sold me unmedicated weed gummies? I received a text yesterday from my friend, asking if I want to buy some homemade medicated* gummies for $5/gummy. Normally I’d laugh my rear end to the dispensary and pick up a pack of watermelon smokies for $23, but she’s fallen on really hard times after losing her job due to chronic illness and then her husband surprising her with divorce papers right after. So I said what the heck, why not. Support a friend, get good product (and hers are usually great), so why not? I said I’d go for 10 gummies for $100. When I got to her place to pick them up, she brought the bag out and I looked over the product. They looked good, just like all her others. I paid her the money and headed back home to try them. My first clue that something was off was that they didn’t taste like weed oil at all. But I pushed that aside and happily popped another in my mouth and waited for the fun. Except the party never came. After an hour and a half, I didn’t feel the slightest difference. I thought to myself, maybe it’s because my tolerance is so high. So I tried 3 more and waited another hour and a half. Nada. I texted my friend and asked what the dose was for each gummy. That’s when she broke the news that they’re “unmedicated testers”. I said “wait a minute... you sold me unmedicated tester gummies for $100?” She replied with “oh sorry I probably should have mentioned that. But to be fair you never asked so it’s just miscommunication lol”. I replied “miscommunication my rear end, I tried to do you a solid by paying way too much for these to begin with but now I’m finding out they’re not even medicated and you just didn’t bother to tell me while gladly accepting my money? That’s not miscommunication, that’s fraud and I want my money back.” She said “sorry I already spent it on groceries and I can’t afford to pay you back.” So basically I’m out $100. I feel bad because I know she’s been really struggling, but she swindled me and I feel like she’s using her bad circumstances as an excuse. I’m getting a lot of poo poo from mutual friends saying how bad a place she’s in right now and how we should be supporting her as she’s trying to get back on her feet, but I’d have happily floated her some cash if she’d just asked. And I have no legal options for obvious reasons. I’m really upset and may be losing several friends because of this. AITA for getting angry and asking for my money back even though I know she can’t afford it? EDITTED* she asked if I wanted to buy gummies, she never said they were medicated. I just thought it was a given. a commenter had to point out to OP that they overpaid twice as much for duds

WIBTA for telling my roommate I don't like the guy she's dating, cause he's into Loli porn? So my roommate has just been on a date with this guy, and she seems really happy, so i'm glad for her. She told me all about this amazing art he draws and how talented he is, so i asked her if i could see his art one day since it sounded really interesting. Well today she showed me, the first red flag for me was when she went into Devianart. The first thing i saw was a page filled with very vulgar furry art. (He was really talented tho). it was very cringy to look at, but i just went along and told her how amazing i thought the art was and how talented he was. She said i could look at the page myself sometime if i wanted to check more of his art out, so i did. He had some art where you had to be 18+ to view, so i logged in and viewed it. It was basically furry porn, Scooby doo porn (yes ik), my little brony porn and then loli. He had a bunch of drawings of a mother and daughter (the daughter looked about 7 years old) that laid in bed while they were naked and the mother was touching her. It was disturbing and gross to look at. My roomate is a lot older than me and i dont really think she's into internet culture. So i dont think she even saw those drawings or knows what a furry or Brony is. She seems so happy for this guy, but i just can't get over the stuff i saw he made. She's only been my roomate for about 1,5 month, so its prob not something i should interfere in. So would i be the rear end in a top hat to tell her about how i feel about the guy she's dating. Or should i just keep my mouth shut?

AITA for expecting my wife to pursue a career that pays well? When I met my wife, she was pursuing a career as a stand-up comedian. She was constantly going to open mics, writing, and doing shows. She was given a highly sought after but unpaid position at our city's biggest comedy club opening for the touring headlining comic. At the time she was making 2-3k year with comedy and had no other income other than child support from an ex. She wasn't making much money but was ambitious and we loved each other, and my 60k job was enough to get us by so we got married. After that she cut back on her writing/performing and took time to be 'happy.' After a year or so of this I asked her if she really wanted to be a comedian, she said yes, and I proposed a 6 month period to get her comedy career back on track and on a trajectory to make a full time adult income. If that didn't work, she would pursue another more predictably successful career. She agreed and kept track of hours spent on comedy. It was 14hrs/week during that period and she hadn't achieved the needed success so comedy was turned into a hobby and do a new career it was. She wanted to go to school to become an on-air radio personality. I shot it down b/c its another profession where there are a handful of people making enough to pay a mortgage and endless people trying to get that job and making no money. She gave me a lot of flak for this. She wanted to respond to a craigslist ad for a 26k receptionist job, but as a very intelligent woman with a BA in journalism, I knew she was capable of establishing herself in a career that would eventually pay at least 50k and set that as a minimum salary for careers to consider. She says that that is insane, and that no reasonable person would ever put an actual number, especially one so ludicrously high on an expected salary from their spouse and that before we were married, I never let her know I would have this expectation. I now make much more $, so money isn't really the issue, I just didn't sign up for a sugar daddy situation and expect my wife to achieve her professional potential. AITA?

The most recent Classic Prudie is a pretty good onequote:Q. Possible Cousin Marriage: Over 20 years ago I had an affair with a married woman who became pregnant with my child. She reconciled with her husband and they raised the boy as their own. I have not had any contact with my biological son, at the husband’s request. No one in my family knows I have a secret son. Two weeks ago I found out my niece (my sister’s daughter) is engaged, and the groom to be is none other than my biological son! Prudie, I am livid that my son’s mother and her husband did not stop this relationship in its early stages. “No, Bobby, you can’t date that girl because she’s your biological cousin” is all it would have taken. I contacted the woman and she swore she didn’t know our son was marrying my niece since my niece has a different last name. I asked her what she planned to do to stop the wedding and she said she’s doing nothing! Our son doesn’t know anything, and according to her, cousin marriage is harmless! Prudie, how do I bring this up with my niece and her parents? I have never had any contact with my son, and I don’t think I should approach him about it. He doesn’t know his father is not his biological father. I don’t want my niece to live in incest because of my past mistake. Please help.

AITA for telling my husband to stop buying his dead wife the same presents he buys me? This is actually a really weird situation I'm currently in. My husband and his wife had an amazing relationship. They had an accident which killed his wife, but my husband survived. This happened years ago. I understand that it was a very traumatic experience for him. We've been married for 7 years and we have a 5 yo daughter together. We have an amazing relationship. He has this habit of buying me expensive presents. An year after being with him, I discovered that his wife and I shared the same name. I asked him about it and he told me that it was not one of the reasons he was attracted to me. After we moved in together, he converted our backyard store room into her memorial. It has her pictures and other stuff belonging to her. And everything he buys for me, he buys for her. Literally everything. He got me new ring for Valentine's day. It looked amazing. And guess who else he bought that for? Even my daughter is asking me who that lady in our backyard is. I don't how she knows, but children are very smart and she keeps pestering me about it. I just cant help feeling that I'm just a replacement. If she were alive, I'd never be here. I just feel like her doppleganger. And we got into a big fight about this. I told him that this cannot continue and I feel really insecure. But he refuses to understand. He told me that he loves me and I'm the woman he chose to be with and I should never feel insecure about someone who passed away. I just cannot understand his argument. AITA?

Me (M34) and fiancee (F27), I am in the process of calling a halt to our wedding as she has asked for an "open" relationship.quote:Alright folks where to start, this one is tough to type and the paws are shaking as I'm doing it. As it says in the title, me and my fiancee (ex?) are 34 and 27 respectively, have been together for nearly four years overall and are a year engaged. I'll be totally honest here, just before we got engaged she had an emotional affair with a bloke that she worked with (I only found out because one of her friend's BF contacted me and said that he overheard the friendgroup discussing it). I confronted her at the time, and after a good bit of arguing and hassle, we came to an agreement to let it go. I'll be totally honest in saying that I'm still slightly in the process of getting over that particular incident, and it discoloured my view of her. I manned up, moved on and proposed (which I had planned on doing anyway). This is just to give an overall context here and indeed to let it be known that there has been issues in the past. In this one she doesn't even want an open relationship, just wants to gently caress other dudes.

I'm (F20) living off food stamps while my partner (M29) gets to spend without much worry. We live together. Hi everyone. I will start off by saying that I hold a full time job and take any hours I get. My partner has a full time job that pays him well over twice as much as I make, and he gets regular handouts from his parents. Everything I earn goes towards paying my share of our rent. What little may be leftover is used for public transportation and necessities. I have no money left for food and therefore rely entirely on food stamps to eat. I want to save money, but I can't. I'm getting nowhere and I know my living situation is unsustainable. My partner, however, enjoys his comfortable life in the city with a somewhat spacious apartment. He isn't rich but can spend several hundred at a time if he wants. He convinced me to move somewhere larger than I was prepared to because he sincerely thought I would be fine. He, after all, was fine when he moved out at 18. But he also had many roommates and rent was significantly cheaper. I should have been smarter about moving, but I was 18 at the time and had no real idea how much living on my own would actually cost. I also trusted him that we would work things out between us financially. I don't blame him for my position but as you might imagine it's causing me distress when I often skip meals to have enough food in a month while he is perfectly fine. I have talked to him about it before but he thinks I should start taking out loans and go from there. I don't want to live in debt. My ideal situation would be either him paying more for our rent so I can begin to save, us moving into a smaller place here, or a cheaper place in the subarbs. He does not want to change his current lifestyle. TL;DR My partner of 3 years is well off while I'm working for rent and struggling for food, all while we live under the same roof. What should I do?

AITA for continuing a relationship under the false pretense of marriage?quote:I am in my mid-fifties approaching retirement and recently went through a devastating divorce. I lost my house, half of the savings and fortunately no alimony payments. My wife was a working professional and towards the end, it felt like marriage was more about frugal living than love. We had been married for 32 years and had two wonderful children, both of which are girls. I wouldn’t trade away my relationship with them for anything, truly my pride and joy. They are ages 26 and 29, three years apart. E: this guy gets worse quote:Since I have a transnational relationship with her, as I met her on a sugar daddy website, it would destroy the employee relationship. Sometimes employees have to work under false pretenses in order to work harder. quote:As an employer, I have to find creative ways to motivate those that work for me. Turns out marriage is a strong motivator for her as her home country is much worse than mine. I've seen youtube videos of it, not good one bit. Anyone in their right mind would argue that she has a much better life working for me than back there LadyPictureShow fucked around with this message at 06:20 on Mar 2, 2019 |
