AITA for expecting a bite of my boyfriend's burrito?


quote:

Get ready for a petty AITA with my boyfriend. We are otherwise happy and I love his stupid rear end. So I (24F) was staying over at my boyfriend’s (24M) place and I made it very clear to him that I was pretty hungry. For background I am a big sharer - I always buy him stuff when I pick up or make food. I also go out of my way to save the remainder of any food I eat for him even though I’d be down to eat it later.

Anyways, before I agreed earlier in the day to drive over around 8 pm, I made it very apparent that I hadn't eaten since 11 am and was very hungry/needed to eat. When I got there we hung out for a little, after which he proceeded to heat up half of his leftover burrito (and didn’t say anything addressing my hunger, or even his for that matter). He then started GOING TO TOWN on the burrito and I was a little hangry-induced peeved.

With two bites left he half heartedly offered me a bite (he admitted later it was indeed a half hearted offer). I said no I’m good due to the reason above. He proceeded to take it down in well under a minute. We sat around for at least 2 minutes after the burrito demolition while I was still noticeably peeved. After noticing my non-characteristic annoyance he offers to make me some freezer tacos. I accepted them somewhat begrudgingly and got in a better mood once I was full and forgot about it. This good mood lasted for a while until yesterday when he brought it up two months later.

This came up randomly on a flight yesterday when I was hangry. His argument is that it’s his burrito and he can do whatever he wants with it. My argument is that even though he knew I was super hungry, he chose to eat his precious burrito in front of me when he could've easily A) made food/communicated that he would make food for at the same time or B) genuinely offered me a bite of burrito before actually feeding me. We are both sticking to our guns. This isn’t super consequential, but I am such a AITA lurker and would love to get opinions, AITA?

European girlfriend spotted

I visited a friend in France once and all over his parents' house were nude pictures of his mom made by his photographer dad. Nothing graphic, stuff like a silhouette of her standing in the window or her half-draped in a sheet, but you could make out nipples and pubic hair and there were dozens of them. I asked him what he thought of having friends over with all those pictures all over the place; was he embarrassed? Did he get made fun of when he was a kid?

AITA for putting extra food on my plate so my boyfriend can't eat it, meaning I get leftovers?

My BF and I of 2 years spit all bills and costs down the middle (except all personal items or individual snack/lunch food). I'm finding it tough financially due to student loans and just entering a career. My BF is quite comfortable financially. I suppose I use my budgeting for a part of my reasoning behind what follows.

When we have dinner together, I typically cook enough for a 4 person meal. My partner will have a 2 x 3 times portion of what I have. If I cook more, basically he just eats more - he works quite a labour intensive job. If there are any leftovers, my BF will always grab them for his lunch the next day. He works far earlier than I do, and uses that as his reason to take the left overs rather than buying or making lunch in the morning.

I started to get slightly frustrated that I always had to purchase more food for myself for lunches. So I have started to put a bit extra on my plate every evening with the intentions of saving a small portion for my lunch the next day - meaning sometimes there was not enough for my BF to have leftovers.

My BF caught on to what I was doing and said that I am being a really crappy person, since it is not his fault his body needs more fuel.

While I do agree with him there, I also find it difficult when I'm already scraping the bottom of the barrel to get by financially, that I also have to fund his large appetite.

Am I the rear end in a top hat here?

Tl;dr - title.

BF should be contributing more for food if he is eating all of it. It sounds like she's tried to address it and he isn't willing to leave leftovers in the fridge for her. It sounds like he doesn't think he needs to be responsible financially or emotionally for the amount he's eating, and it's affecting her. Sever.

AITA for not telling my landlord he's charging me way too low?
u/AbdArc6m

quote:

When I moved in my appartment, almost a decade ago, the rent was proportional to the current market conditions, maybe slightly lower. Since then, the market has changed a lot, but my rent hasn't. Mostly because my landlord is old and doesn't take interest in current events and market changes.

I've been called an rear end in a top hat by some friends because, in their view, I'm taking advantage of the landlord's lack of financial knowledge. In my view, I know I'm paying way less than my appartment's current value, but I don't think it's my responsibility to let the owner know that. Especially given that I couldn't afford to pay that much and I'd have to move. AITA?

I’m pretty sure this guy wants to gently caress his cousin... :ohdear:


WIBTA if I kissed my cousin on the cheek or on the forehead after giving her a gift for 60$ for her birthday?
u/vietnowrevolver7m
I'm a 17 year old guy and my cousin is 20.

Her birthday is in less than two months, and I will buy her a gift for 60$ because I love her so much. I'm incredibly proud to be related to someone who is as ambitious, smart and sweet as my cousin. I was also thinking of giving her a hug and a kiss on the cheek or on the forehead after I give her the gift. I hope her boyfriend won't beat me up, but it will only be a completely platonic kiss. The kind of kiss you get from your grandma. Our grandma kisses us on the cheek sometimes so would it be a good idea if I did for the same on my cousin? Or would she get pissed and beat me up? To be fair though I wouldn't mind getting beat up from my cousin because she can do whatever she wants with me.

TL;DR WIBTA if I kissed my cousin on the cheek or on the forehead after giving her a gift for 60$ for her birthday?

Because he doesn't get he's behaving shittily and that consuming a greater portion of the resources isn't a loving right when they share all costs equally. Nor does he value the cost of her preparing the loving food.

Also, she's struggling and he's not and he doesn't see that this thoughtlessness will grind away her love for him.

This world looks very scary....


I[35M] have a few borderline personality disorders, and because of of that dating is impossible. I am thinking of using a mail order bride service and wanted to know if it was a serviceable idea.

I have never had a lasting relationship. It isn't because I am bad looking or because of anything they did, it is because I am suffering from multiple "borderline personality disorders". I don't posses or process emotions the way most people do, and i also have an inability to make attachments to anything. I also seem to lack empathy.

Because of this, starting and maintaining relationships has been all but impossible. I have been in therapy for these things for the better part of 30 years, and I have learned to "fake it" for the most part. I have found that faking it with a person that you are supposed to care about is impossible at least for me.

The lack of attachments has made me fairly successful in my chosen field, and has afforded me the use of professionals whenever my sexual needs had to be met. I have also used professionals for company functions and weddings and other things that I needed to attend where attending alone would be a problem.

For the last 5 or so years, aquaintences at work, and family have been asking why it is that I have not attempted to start a family, and i am lacking a suitable answer.

I have been doing research on "mail order brides". The signup process isn't that difficult. It would also seem to solve the problem of hiring people to attend social functions and the like. I don't know if this idea is a good one, but it seems to solve the issues that I am having at the moment. What do you think?

TL;DR I have borderline personality disorder and I cannot stay in a relationship. So I am thinking of signing up for a mail order bride for longterm companionship. Is this a good idea?
