gently caress those roommates. She's moving out and shouldn't pay for bills on a place she doesn't live at anymore. It reads like the roommates knew she was leaving but even if not she doesn't owe them poo poo.

"I'm sorry my husband should be here for the party but he's too busy being all sad brains about his dead brother and pregnant wife. I know right, what an rear end in a top hat!". People grieve very differently and man, a triple tragedy like that would put most normal people off having a party just because of optics/decorum. That must have hit the family hard (with exception of his wife ofc). If it made her 'look bad' it was probably cause she was still insisting on having the party with what had happened. Or at least in my sane rational world.

AITA for pulling out of being my best friend's maid of honor?quote:My best friend and I have known each other since we were like 3 and we have always been super close. She's the first of us to get married and I am so happy for her and was so happy to be asked to be her maid of honor. What she and I were not expecting was for her fiance to consider my ex such a close friend now that he's his groomsman. We knew they kept in touch after I broke up with him but we had no idea they were friends. What's even worse is my ex is using this as a way to try and force his way back into my life. She gave me warning when she found out and I agreed to one night out with all six of us (my best friend, her fiance and their bridesmaids/groomsmen). I was paired with her fiance's brother who is the best man and my ex was with her sister who is bridesmaid. But he would not stick around her sister at all. He kept coming over to me, he tried to get me to take him back, he joked that we should go and hook up, He touched me a few times and I had to brush him off. He was just intense.

Further digging into an entrenched position of wrongness and expecting the other person to be reasonable is the only option. This really is the eternal answer, isn't it? Someone embroider it on a pillow. Here's a fun one. AITA for telling my daughter to stop reading tarot cards for money? quote:My daughter (14) has recently taken up an interest in tarot cards and she’s been doing readings for several family members and her friends. What I didn’t know was she’s been doing it in school too and for money at that. One parent got my number and called me complaining, said her son blew all his savings on readings within a span of four days. I got embarrassed and paid her back and talked to my daughter. I asked her if she actually believed in what she was doing and she said she didn’t but it was nice to make money from it. I got disappointed and said she was making a fool out of her classmates. She said, “they are fools, it’s not my fault.” I told her I want her to stop immediately or she’ll get into trouble, and that she needs to find a more legitimate way to make money if that’s what she wants. She got upset and said she’s put in a lot of work in learning how to read tarot cards. She complained to my husband who told me I’m being unreasonable and that it’s not her fault if her classmates believe in stuff like tarot but I think her classmates are too young to know any better, and it’s only a matter of time before the school finds out and gets involved. I'm kinda torn here because I don't think the mother is a horrible rear end in a top hat here, but I'm in a weird spot where I think she's wrong but not unreasonable. Clearly the daughter doesn't believe in it so is she being dishonest in selling these sorts of services? Or is the entertainment value she delivers enough for the price of admission? The whole "doing it at school" is slightly sketchy but the worst thing that will happen is someone telling her to stop, so the stakes are really low here. That someone spent "all of his savings" (at age 14) doesn't really mean jack to me.

Doing it at school is likely to get her in trouble, but beyond that separating fools from their money is a time honored way to make a living.

Most money-fool-separators are smart enough not to separate fools from all their money at once, that just draws this kind of attention and endangers the hustle

Solkanar512 posted:AITA for telling my daughter to stop reading tarot cards for money? Yeah I dunno, I guess we can have the whole discussion about whether tarot is just cold reading or not (I would vote for we should not go down that derail), but it's kind of a bummer to have somebody doing tarot readings explicitly for the purpose of separating money from people they think are dumb. Like, I've gotten them before, I think it's cool to get them done by somebody who genuinely cares about the craft of doing it. That said, yeah I guess materially the biggest issue is that it seems like something the school would crack down on.

The only way situations like this get resolved is by forcing the couple into close proximity at an emotionally charged time, not by (ugh!) acting like an adult, admitting you did something that hurt somebody else and that they may not want to forgive you for it.

Im willing to bet that most people doing readings for money dont believe in it, so if she's doing it the "proper" way like any other conman, I don't see the issue.

Eh, if I was the mom I'd be worried too. 14? If a higher status child gets annoyed she could end up socially ostracized at school. And if she's in the states the chance of someone deciding tarot is demonic is not negligible. Some kids get scared of her doing "witchcraft" at school and things get weird. She's making pocket money at the risk of dire teenage drama.
