Drunk aunt calling is very weird, but I think everything before that isn't too unreasonable. I can understand wanting to avoid potential drama (especially given all the wedding/family poo poo talked about here), and I could definitely see a reasonable expectation that "you can't go to my wedding because you're a known kleptomaniac" would not go over as smoothly as the question assumes.

Demanding to be told the real reason you’re not allowed somewhere is real “addict refusing treatment” behavior in the first place so that update doesn’t surprise me at all. And no, I’m not excusing the aunt drunk dialing her nephew, that’s hosed up.

Olive Branch posted:Does anyone have that (I believe it was posted by a goon) story about the OP forcing his girlfriend to open his relationship to sleep with a coworker, her finally relenting after tears, and then discovering the coworker who he thought was flirtatious was in fact gay and just being nice to him? Cherry on top was his still-then GF sleeping with a gym dude who made her very happy in bed, and the OP now wanting to close the relationship again? I don't know about that specific one, but I do know that "person who opened the relationship regrets it" is a time-honored favorite of this thread, in the same vein as loving TREE LAW.

Yeah I feel kinda bad because he's not that old and managing mental health sucks, but hopefully he'll learn he's gotta actually, like, make an effort. Drunk dialed by your aunt is messed up though. Here's a low-stakes one! AITA for asking my sister to shave her long armpit hair or wear a shirt that covers them while attending an important professional career networking event? quote:I've never asked her to change, and I am typically very supportive of her choices, but I feel like the reciprocal isn't there with my choice to pursue a competitive field. I will be attending a really important professional event, and she will be coming out with us in the evenings. I feel like because she is my sister, whatever she does will be associated with me, and I know not everyone will find her long armpit hair professional. If I were in a career position where I just didn't care what others thought, then I wouldn't have said anything, and I never have up to this point, but this is a huge networking event for me. I know she is in a stage where she is trying to find herself and doesn't care what others think, whereas I do, so I just want an outside opinion before it escalates. TIA. I've been trying to figure out how I feel about this one. Like, obviously sister should do whatever the hell she wants with her body hair, but I don't think I've ever had to think through whether underarm hair is "unprofessional". I guess it is, but I can't really quantify why? I feel like it just doesn't come up for people who dress in a more masculine-presenting way, because tank tops for them are not "professional" attire, but for someone who generally dresses feminine, professional dress could still include like sleeveless dresses or blouses. Also I mean there's the whole other argument of professional dress being a constantly moving goal post anyway but that kind of invalidates the whole thing.

I think the argument of "I went to your wedding ceremony despite my personal discomfort and the fact that you aren't willing to do that for me hurts" is at least somewhat valid. If she wasn't willing to do that herself then she shouldn't have asked it of them.

This has to be something like a child's pool party that the kid of the assistant manager of a Domino's franchise was invited to.

Yeah, a lot of people brought that up in the comments, and the answer is something like "The sister is on vacation and wants to do things around the city". Which people then correctly pointed out that she could probably find something more fun to do than a networking event. So perhaps the entire conflict is a non-starter, but I suppose a decent amount of AITA posts fit that demographic.

Involuntary Sparkle posted:This is probably a petty question but are they actually working 80+ hours a week? Or do they just mean "working two jobs"? Retail (and food service) notoriously schedule people for 29 hours or less to avoid classifying the employees as full-time with the additional benefits/protections that entails. Two 29 hour jobs are still basically full-time, especially with the difficulty of juggling often inconsistent schedules - I wouldn't hold them to the technical definition.

AITA for expecting my gf to help me when I did something she disapproved of? I bought a second hand motorcycle from a friend and began using it to get my motorcycle licence. My gf was very against it and showed me statistics of injury rates from motorcycles and how stupid it was that I was choosing to take the risk I’ve always wanted to get one and I ignored her because she is constantly nagging about it being dangerous. We got into multiple fights over it and I was sick and tired of her complaining. Last month I got into an accident (no car only me) where I swerved into a metal fence and broke my collar bone and fractured my wrist. I got myself to emergency and they patched me up. I also got multiple cuts on my face and I needed stitches. I don’t have the best insurance so after insurance I have a $3700 bill. I can’t afford this and even if I sell the motorcycle I still have over a grand in the bill. I’m trying to get the bill reduced now but it will take a while. Beyond that I also can’t cook or do basic things like put on the brace to my shoulder or lift things. I’ve asked my gf to help me when she comes over to help me and she’s just coldly told me if she helps me I’ll just get back on my motorcycle (which I’ve already told her I’m trying to sell) and I’ve called her cold and bitchy for refusing to help me with anything because she calls my injuries self inflicted. She seems like she wouldn’t help me if I got sick because she isn’t the least bit sympathetic I got hurt but AITA for expecting any help after she warned me it was dangerous? Top comment: I had this book growing up, King Rollo and the Tree. King Rollo saw this huge tree outside his castle, and wanted to climb it. Everyone told him he'd fall, that he'd tear his coat and bump his head... but King Rollo climbed the tree anyway. And he fell, and bumped his head and tore his coat, just like everyone said he would. she calls my injuries self inflicted Bro, you crashed your motorcycle into a stationary object, who do you think inflicted your injuries? She seems like she wouldn’t help me if I got sick Has she expressly warned you that your actions are likely to cause you to become sick? I don't see how this is comparable at all. YTA, King Rollo.

That one is interesting because she's already over there helping him. So "not helping" likely means she's not giving him money to pay the hospital bill.

 A new Parent Of The Year contender has appeared! AITA for stopping my daughter from studying as a punishment? quote:I have a daughter(16) who is unlike any teenager I've ever seen. The problem is she is extremely rude. I've tried many things to fix this but nothing works. I never had these problems with my other kids. With them I could just say no electronics for a week or ground them or something like that and it would be enough but not for her. She doesn't care if I take away her electronics she just picks up a few novels and starts reading them. She will actually be glad if I ground her and use it as an excuse to avoid all our family gatherings like "oh we are going to aunties home tonight? I wish I could come but I'm grounded" and then happily goes to her room
