AITA Making my vegetarian daughter make her own meals? Title basically sums it up I guess. Daughter has decided she wants to be a vegetarian. I love meat and it’s very rare for me to go without some kind of meat at dinner. My daughter naturally expects me to accommodate and cook vegetarian options for dinner too. I told her that if she wants to be vegetarian she can make her own dinner. Wife told me I should cook veggie dinners for her, but shut up quickly after I asked if she wanted to start cooking dinner instead. Naturally I am now the rear end in a top hat in all of this. AITA? Edit: daughter is 17 topic got locked because it was brigaded by the vegan subreddit lmao

AITA: I (22F) hung up on my boyfriend(20M) after he made a cancer joke that I didn't find funny. To give some background: My boyfriend has a lump on his side that he has been worried about for a while now. He keeps telling me that he has cancer, which I have asked him multiple times to stop saying because I don't think it's a funny joke. I acknowledge that I may be sensitive about the topic because I was with my uncle (who basically took me in as a daughter) when he passed away from cancer. However I still don't think that it's something to joke about. So I asked him repeatedly to go get it checked out rather than constantly telling me that he has cancer. I phoned my boyfriend today on the way home from work and totally out of the blue he told me this elaborate story of how he went to the hospital today and he has to go to an oncologist because he has cancer. After I asked him to be serious with me and tell the truth he continued telling me that this was true. At this point I was really stressed out and overwhelmed, I then again asked him if he was messing with me to which he said "yes, he was joking" and so I immediately hung up the phone without saying anything and burst into tears because I was so worked up. I phoned back like 3 minutes later to find out how much of the story was true but now my boyfriend says that I'm in the wrong and I handled it badly by hanging up. I don't think that I'm in the wrong here... So AITA for hanging up? Edit: He did get the lump checked out today and it's not cancerous.

Smirking_Serpent posted:AITA Making my vegetarian daughter make her own meals? Absolutely NTA if neither the wife nor daughter want to cook. She’s 17 she needs to learn to cook her own stuff. Obviously not saying she needs to go out and buy her own food if they are willing to accommodate that she should cook for her self.

My sister in law went vegan at 16, she immediately started preparing her own food without question becaise she respected the rest of her family still wanting to eat how they wanted. She would often make extra of her stuff in case anyone wanted any, and it was honestly really delicious. She was also happy to offer me her dairy free options of homemade cheese and ice cream because I'm lactose intolerant. I might be biased about it being time to grow up and take care of yourself at 17 though because that's the age I moved out.

WIBTA for telling my Fiancée that I am not happy / don't want her to go with a male friend to a funeral of a friend of his for moral support. So, this morning my partner texted me a screen shot of a text message her friend had sent her saying that a friend of his had passed away and he wondered if she would go with him to the funeral for emotional support and she asked If I mind her going. He is Married himself but has said that his wife is away that night with a friend of hers so can't go with him. The location of the funeral is 2.5 hours away and he has said that he will stay overnight as he would like a drink after the wake. He has said that he will pay for a hotel room for her and will also buy her dinner to say thank you. She met this person at work and has known him for less than a year. He no longer works with her, but they have stayed in contact. In the last couple of months, she has been on a couple of nights out with him in group situations but has met up with him first, so she doesn't turn up on her own. She has also met up with him a couple of times in the day, the last time she met up with him they went shopping and had lunch together and was gone for 6 hours which she doesn't even do with me. She told me the day before that she was meeting up with him for shopping and lunch and asked if I mind, I was working from home that week so I said that I need to eat too so I could meet them for lunch. I also said that this guy makes me feel jealous. The next day comes and I thought she would either cancel on him because of how I felt or would offer an invite to come and meet them for lunch to make me feel more at ease, but I got nothing. After she got home, I discussed it with her again and she ended up getting angry with me and told me I was over reacting, and I need to get over it. I have been with my partner for nearly 8 years and we are getting married in less than a month. I do trust her, and she has never given me any reason not to. She is always honest with me and can never keep something to herself, if she has a guilty conscious about something, she will always own up and tell me. She has never done anything seriously wrong like cheat on me. Even though I do trust her, I am only human and, I do feel jealous. If this was a female friend of hers, I would not be having these thoughts however this situation doesn't sit well with me. I don't know what his wife is doing with her friend but if a loved one of mine needed emotional support I would have to have a very good reason why I can't cancel or rearrange plans with a friend. I also think it is weird about them staying over. If it were me, I would prefer to travel back the same day and be back in my own bed rather than having a drink especially if I was dragging a non-family member away with me. So, before I reply to her I thought I would get opinions from the wonderful world of reddit just in case I am over reacting and start an unneeded argument.

[UT] A Group of Students Rigged "Senior Assassin" and Might Walk Away with $1.5k Every year, the senior class at my high school organizes an end-of-year game called "Senior Assassin". For those who aren't familiar, the game goes somewhat like this: All participating seniors give $10 to the organizers (other seniors). This money becomes the 'pot' that is given to the winner. At a certain date, participating students get a card with the name of another participating student on it. The named student becomes the the first student's 'target'. Starting at a later date, the game begins. Each student is to supply their own water gun and 'hunt' their target with it. You are not allowed to trade targets with another person and you cannot 'kill' your target in safe zones (i.e. during/at school, in class, in church, during lunch, etc.). Once you 'kill' your target, their target becomes your new target. This continues until their is one student standing, who subsequently wins the entire pot. I would like to stress the rule of not being allowed to trade targets, because this is where my issue stems from. The organizers essentially traded cards with other students (their friends) in order to get targets that were convenient to them (other friends). This lead to people essentially throwing in exchange for a split pot at the end. Furthermore, certain students had advanced notice of their targets, giving them an unfair advantage as far as 'hunting' them. Normally, I wouldn't have an issue with any of this. I am not even participating in the game to begin with. But given how large the pot is, and how many students are involved, I was wondering if this would qualify as Class A Midemeanor Theft in the state of Utah, as definded by: Theft of property or services valued at more than $500 but less than $1,500 is a class A misdemeanor in Utah. ( § 76-6-412(c).) tl;dr: Kids at my high school rigged the senior end-of-year class game and might walk away with $1.5k in prize money.

Needs emotional support because his friend died but his wife can't/won't break her plans to go hang out with a friend. Instead he needs a woman he has known for less than a year and spends an absurd amount of alone time with to stay overnight with him 2.5 hours away, while admitting there will be alcohol involved. I'm calling bullshit on the dead friend and I expect him to have a lot of deaths around him the coming year. "Listen honey, another friend of his died and his wife is just always too busy with her friends to help him. I need to support him."
