AITA for refusing to scam the government with my roommate?quote:So a couple of weeks ago my roommate told me she applied for a rental assistance program and that she put down that I live with her and the entire amount of the rent in the application (so both her and my portion). She also failed to report my income. She ended up getting approved and told me that the program would be directly paying the apartment so she would not see a cent of that money. How dare you take advantage of me by not giving me free money!!

I mean if she doesn't then if they're jointly liable for the rent and she knows about this fraud that she is benefiting from because it's paying half the rent bill then she can easily be swept up in the inevitable fraud charge.

Yeah that's what I figure, instant nope the moment they're trying something that could blow back on me. The extra greediness gambit was just a fun extra lol on the side.

value-brand cereal posted:Here. Actually have some content. NTA. I had parents who did this sort of poo poo ALL THE loving TIME. My father would always favour my brother in all circumstances. When he said he'd teach me and my brother how to ride a bicycle, my brother, being older and more athletic, was able to get it much quicker than I could. Me, being about 5 or 6, was struggling, so he hit me and told me to "gently caress off." When I got a bunch of presents for my birthday, he just grabbed a bunch of them and gave them to my brother, and told me I had to learn to share. Of course my brother didn't have to "share" his presents with me. Funny that. After my parents split, and we had our court-ordered visits with that piece of poo poo, it was always "hey, older sibling, where do you want to go." He bought both of us football shirts (Liverpool FC for my bro, Bayern Munich for me), but made sure to tell me that I looked like poo poo in that shirt. You know, that sort of thing. Imagine that happening all. the. loving. time. Every act of kindness is always accompanied by a remark meant to cut me down and make me feel like poo poo. I have gone complete non-contact with him, and the last thing I said to him was to tell him that I hated his loving guts, and that if I ever run into him, I will gently caress him up. Would you be surprised to learn that he also regularly beat my mother? Which leads me to: value-brand cereal posted:,,AITA for running away when my fiancee got in touch with my mother? MOTHERFUCK PEOPLE LIKE THIS. Don't loving tell people who've gone non-contact with family members that we have an obligation to forgive them just because we're related. That poo poo happens for a reason, you loving turd. gently caress you, gently caress off, go gently caress yourself. Captain Hygiene posted:How about a different kind of leftovers drama One of my best friends has coeliac disease, so I have a good idea of how much of a loving pain it is for someone having to live with that condition. gently caress this loving guy, I hope his wife leaves him.

The other side of these momma's boys: [24/m] My mom (44/f) is gonna spend my birthday with her boyfriend and i'm gonna be by myself, which is upsetting for me. Is there anything i can do? quote:Keep in mind, i don't really have any friends, it's mostly just me, her and my grandmother. I really want the family to be together but unfortunately, she's spending the day with her boyfriend. WHy? Because he gets 2 days off a week and unfortunately my bday has to be on one of those days. She goes over to his house every week on the same day since he lives so far away, way before i even wake up (6-7 am). So i won't even see her. She won't be here.

AITA for telling my brother that he should marry his buddies?quote:My brother Kyle married Mia a week ago. Me and Mia are very close to each other and I was very happy to be a family. Mia was very excited and spent a lot of time planning their wedding. The problem is my brother who, despite his age (33), still behaves like a small child, especially if his buddies are nearby. Mia knew about this, so she asked him to act more seriously for just this one day. And I do not mean that they have a straight face all the time, just so that they do not throw food (something like that happened on Mia's birthday). Kyle promised nothing like this would happen. However, of course, he did not keep his promise. During their first dance, Kyle would either shout at his buddies or make silly faces while ignoring Mia all the time. When the cake rolled into the room, he and his friends took a handful of cake and threw it at her, destroying her dress and makeup. Already then I saw that she was close to crying. I wanted to yell at my brother, but Mia stopped me and said that if I wanted to do something for her, I could help her fix her makeup and hair. It is worth mentioning that Mia has practically no contact with her family because most of them are toxic and controlling, so she still needs the help of a psychologist. So he is a very submissive person who is afraid to oppose others and I knew my brother was taking advantage of it. When me and Mia returned to the room, we noticed that my brother and his friends were gone. So I asked my mother if she knew where they were, she said that they went to the beach because they were bored. Then I couldn't stand it anymore. I went outside and called my brother. We started arguing and under the influence of emotions I told him not to waste Mia's time and just to marry his buddies. At that point he disconnected and did not speak to me for the next 5 hours. His friend said I overdid it and I should apologize to him. Good family, poo poo brother.

AngryRobotsInc posted:A child who is specifically conceived through IVF, using genetic compatibility testing, to provide organ or cell transplants for their sibling. It is extremely hosed up. I can kind of understand how parents would go for that if it meant saving their child's life. What I don't understand is how it's possible to not love this donor child at least as much as the first one. I guess it's the difference between seeing the second child as a second child that helped save her brother's life, and seeing her as a means to saving the older child who now has to be taken care of for 18 years? Second one just seems really sociopathic to me.

You've been reading this thread long enough to know how many parents consider their children to be property.

She said she doesn't really know herself but is afraid of being left alone. I assured her that both me and the rest of the family would support her. Everyone loves me very much." Usually I can muddle my way through the typo-ridden poor writing and figure out what someone was trying to say, but this is approaching pure gibberish.

I like reading this thread because it reminds me that at least I'm not some of these gently caress ups, but it also makes me wonder how half of them manage to find partners/get married. I guess at least I have standards?

My (M36) influencer GF (F35) is locked in the bathroom and won't leave until I apologize, I don't know what she wants me to apologize for. She is sharing the situation with her audience.quote:We were eating lunch in our living room. I (M36) told her(F35) me and some buddies(M38 & M32) were gonna drive(Ford Fiesta stick shift) down to the beach to paddle board. Her facial expressions suddenly changed, told me I was being very hurtful and non inclusive. Side note, she is a bit to the heavy side(BMI of 37) which I don't mind at all. We then got into an argument where she got more and more upset, talking about how I am insensitive to her anxiety. I then got mad because I have been dealing with social anxiety and depression for the last couple of years, and I feel like I am very aware of people's mental health.

it sounds like he knows why she's locked in the bathroom, but taking at face value, lol if the concept of moving under muscle power triggers you because... you're aware of being overweight but not even that badly by American standards? or being upset that your boyfriend has friends and is telling you his plans, which is kind of even funnier but also sadder if we take her... Instagram stream preaching or whatever at face value also

That reminds me- when abusive people use (self-) therapy as a tool or justification for their abusive behaviour, is that still weaponised therapy or is that term only ever used for when an abuser manipulates their therapist into it? What do you call it when someone incorporates the language and justification of therapy/self-help into their abuse

RenegadeStyle1 posted:I did audibly laugh when I originally read "Everybody loves me very much" yeah it's definitely meant to be "everyone loves Mia very much", along with the muddled pronouns voice-to-text could be the answer. Also I LOVE stories where a family gets to trade a toxic fail-child for a lovely ex-spouse-of-fail-child, cutting the former out of their life when they mistreat the latter.
