Was This Guy a Jerk to Un-Invite His Parents to His Wedding? People Shared Their Thoughts.

Family drama is here in a major way!

We all have drama in our families on some level, but some folks really take it to another level, you know what I mean?

A guy took to Reddit’s “Am I the *sshole?” page to ask if he was way out of line for uninviting his parents to his parents after his mom was…less than polite.

AITA for uninviting my parents to my wedding after my mom said “I don’t care about your f*cking wedding”?

“I’m engaged to the love of my life. We’ll call her Sarah. Sarah doesn’t have issues with my parents but there is a little tension on both sides and no one has attempted to be close, which is fine I guess. It makes me a little sad that they are not more excited about her.

Sarah asked my mom the other day if she would help make centerpieces. Sarah is into DIY but we are running out of time and she was asking around to see who would be willing to help.

She admitted to my mom that it was kind of grunt work and if she didn’t want to, no pressure. My mom got offended and said of course she doesn’t want to, we haven’t cared about her at all, so she doesn’t care about our f*cking wedding. This hurt Sarah but she didn’t fight back.

Sarah told me and I called my mom. Honestly I probably went into it a big aggressively, but I yelled at her for saying that to Sarah. My mom said that Sarah hasn’t included her in any of the fun parts, or cared about her opinion on anything, so why would she help make centerpieces. I asked her to apologize to Sarah and my mom said no, she was done talking about it, so I uninvited her to the wedding.

My dad sent me a text, because I said he could still come, and pretty much told me to f*ck off if I thought he would come without my mom. My mom is now upset because everyone is going to ask where she is. Sarah is very happy and feels like I defended her, and literally everyone else thinks I’m the *sshole.”

Let’s take a look at what Reddit users said in response to this story…

This person said they agreed with the man getting mad, but they would have handled it in a different way.

This person thinks that the man’s mom (the mother-in-law to the bride) seems a little controlling and maybe shouldn’t be involved in some of these decisions…

Another reader said that this whole blow-up could be a sign of BAD things to come.

Another Reddit user said that the man is to blame here and that his bride-to-be isn’t in the clear, either.

And this person agreed that the man is also the *sshole here and that they’re taking advantage of the people in their lives during the wedding planning.

People Talk About Things That Are a Lot Cheaper if You Do It Yourself

I wish I knew how to fix cars…

I supposed it’s never too late to learn new things, but it’s something that I just never took the time to figure out or explore when I was younger and I think it would be nice to be able to some of those basic maintenance things myself.

And it would be cheaper, too…

People on AskReddit talked about what is much cheaper if you do it yourself.

1. Give it a shot.

“Buying computer upgrades separate from the OEMs, like RAM and storage.

Apple is a perfect example. $1000 for 64 GB of RAM for an iMac.

You can buy 128 GB of RAM for $600 off Amazon.

What a ripoff.”

2. Get ‘er done!

“As a woman, anything related to our beauty saves me so much money!

Waxing, one on one lashes, manicure and pedicure, professional make up, hair extensions, etc etc etc.”

3. Let’s get fancy.

“Drinking fancy drinks.

A fancy cocktail at a restaurant or bar will run you about 7 dollars depending on what you get and where you go.

You can buy the ingredients and make it yourself, and end up paying less per drink than you would at the restaurant.”

4. Most vehicle stuff.

“Vehicle maintenance.

Not talking engine swaps or anything but most stuff is relatively easy to do and parts are cheap. Get a scanner that connects to an app on your phone and if the check engine light comes on see what the fix is. Watch a youtube, get a friend and some beers and try it yourself.

If you have a motorcycle change your own oil. I put in the best synthetic with a good filter for less than $70 while a dealer would charge me $120 for whatever oil they use. It takes maybe 5-10 minutes rather than dropping it at a dealer for the day and because it is so convenient I do it more often.”

5. Pest control.

“Minor pest control.

Buy some borax ant traps for crawling bugs, and buy an indoor bug zapper to kill flying bugs like flies and mosquitoes.

It’s like $20 for an indoor bug zapper and it was one of the best investments I ever made to stop getting bit by mosquitoes inside my house every summer.”

6. Good idea!

“When my aunt got a quote for how much it would cost to remodel her kitchen she was like “Forget that!” and took a basic carpentry course and remodelled it herself which ended up being much cheaper and influenced her future endeavours.

Now she does woodworking and has a pretty good business selling her work at art fairs and she restores and resells antique furniture for fun.”

7. Truth!

“Picking up your take away food.

Covid made it super convenient to order from services like Uber Eats, but when it’s all said and done, a $20 dinner is closer to $40 after service fees, delivery fees, and tips.”

8. Might as well try it.

“Making your own pizza.

Get the dough ingredients. Make a good batch of tomato sauce (freeze the rest) and get the toppings you want.

You’ll save labor and delivery costs.”

9. You can do it!

“Eating healthy.

It is very inexpensive and easy to prepare at home. So many people want to use the excuse ” I can’t afford to eat healthy!”.

Not true at all. If you can afford fast food, you can actually save money by eating healthy.

Vegetables and a protein source (chicken, fish, beef, pork, beans) are easily less than $20 a week per person.”

10. It adds up in a hurry.

“Coffee.

I lived in the US for a year as an exchange student a couple of years back and I COULD NOT UNDERSTAND WHY some people felt the need to go out EVERY SINGLE DAY to get coffee.

And some of the people I know didn’t even go to a regular Café, they went to F*CKING STARBUCKS EVERY SINGLE DAY. B*tch, just buy a f*cking coffee machine and make coffee at home.

“Oh, but I don’t like black coffee, I like other flavors and blablabla…”

First of all: go f*ck yourself. Second: you can learn how to make those complicated drinks in a weekend, you’re just too lazy to learn and too stupid to save money.”

11. Get busy!

“Cleaning.

It will be cheaper of you use grandma’s old cleaning solutions and a little bit of elbow grease.

Paying someone to clean for you might seem good but if you stop groaning and do it you will have it done in an hour or two.”

12. All kinds of things.

“Lots of things are very simple to fix, and parts are available online.

I’ve saved myself thousands by ordering parts online. I’ve fixed my washer and dryer, A/C, cars and trucks, computers etc. Lots of parts are easy interchange and diagnostics is usually pretty simple.

Plus most things only need simple hand tools.”

13. Bingo!

“Mowing your own lawn.

In addition to some good exercise and outdoor time, it gets you away from the kids for an hour as well!

What’s that honey? “RRRAAAAPPPPAAAA” I can’t hear you!””

What are some good DIY tips that you can share with us?

What Is Your Most Toxic Trait? Here’s How People Responded.

It can be really hard to take a long look in the mirror and admit the things about yourself that aren’t exactly great.

But sometimes it can be a useful exercise…even if you THINK you might be perfect.

If you had to admit it, what would you say is your most toxic trait?

Here’s how people on AskReddit responded.

1. Two big ones.

“I can’t let go of things and I take things way too personally.

I rationalize it like this “I wouldn’t dream of saying or doing something like that to this person, so why are they doing it to me?”.

Also, I procrastinate like no other. Seriously, you could give me a year, or 2 days to do something. Wouldn’t make a difference.”

2. Oversharing.

“Growing up feeling very unknown/unseen, I have a tendency to overshare and get excited if someone shows an interest in me. It can come across as overriding and waiting for someone to finish what they are saying just so I can say my thing.

I also want people to genuinely like me so I tell them a lot of the bad or difficult stuff right away, so they are pre-warned and I don’t feel like I’m wasting my time with someone who can’t handle the sh*t that lead to who I am now, and the people I still interact with on a semi-regular basis (mainly family).”

3. Need to be validated.

“Most of the time when I ask people for their opinions, I don’t actually want to hear their opinion.

Instead I want to hear my opinion come out of their mouth. I’m always hoping that they will have the same opinion as me because it makes me feel validated.

I don’t actually care about what they really think.”

4. Insecure.

“I’m extremely insecure and overthink a lot.

I feel constant fear of being disliked or abandoned.

I need a lot of reassurance in things because my anxiety makes me so scared and worried I either hold on too tight or I push people away even though I want them close which only end up hurting them more.”

5. Just can’t hide it.

“I’m not good at hiding my emotions. Specifically, if I’m in a bad mood, everyone knows it.

I used to be an absolute nightmare when I was younger because of it; I’d turn my bad mood into everyone’s bad mood. I don’t do that anymore, but I’m still not good at hiding it.”

6. High standards.

“I have impossibly high standards for myself and I tend to place this on others as well. Then I get p*ssy/grouchy when people fail me.

Deep down it is a self protection mechanism, having been let down by so many people, it is just easier to assume and expect the worst, that even the best of those I love will let me down.”

7. Checked out.

“I mentally checked out of my life.

Sometimes i just sleep for half of my worktime (thanks covid) and after work drink and watch sh*t on Netflix. Rinse and repeat, anticipating weekend. Then friday arrives and i feel even worse (counterintuitive, isn’t it?).

I know i should find me some new stimuli/tasks/hobby/anything but i… Idk? Can’t be bothered?”

8. Back to me.

“I talk about myself way too much and don’t ask about the other person nearly enough.

Probably not my most toxic trait but definitely the one that’s giving me issues at the moment.”

9. Might be time to reach out.

“I’m bad at keeping in touch with people I care about.

The phrase out of sight out of mind is really true for me. I tend to just be absorbed by what’s right in front of me. It’s very rare that I would have a thought like I wonder how my sister is doing or I wonder how such-and-such friend is doing after xyz event or even I wonder how my girlfriends day is going.

I care about these people obviously, but they also don’t seem to naturally occur to me in my daily thoughts. This unfortunately leaves it up to everyone else to reach out to me, to hang, to make the invitation, to chat, etc. I’m always super stoked when they do, but I regret putting that on them. I’m fortunate that they do all make the effort.

I am a good friend… like with anything else I do, when I’m with someone I’m very much absorbed in that interaction, so that I think helps put away any doubts about my interest in the relationship.”

10. Ingrained in you.

“Because my father was and is a huge racist, I still have racist thoughts that I am fully ashamed of and I know they are wrong.

It’s just ingrained into me sadly.”

11. Holding grudges.

“I hold grudges basically forever and I hate it.

To put things in perspective with a little example, a childhood friend one time did something mean to me when we were 7. We kept talking after that, but whenever we did I would remember that day with ridiculous detail like it was etched with a laser on my brain.

I finally let go of that grudge one day when we were casually remembering childhood moments and she remembered that day and apologized. About 20 years later.”

12. At least you’re aware of it.

“I’m manipulative and selfish.

I just finally accepted that a few months ago. I can’t even tell you guys or anyone else the things I’ve done. Even though I regret them now and know they’re wrong I know for a fact I’d have Redditors screaming at me for being a selfish prick.

In vague terms, I’ve used people, lied, guilted, and messed with the system to get what I want and never really thought of it as manipulative until I got on meds and got some help.”

13. Time to recharge.

“I’m emotionally unavailable. Sometimes I just disappear.

My closest friends understand this but it’s off putting for new friendships. It’s nothing personal, I just need to recharge.”

Okay, now we want to hear from you…

A Woman Told Her Stepsister She Can’t Model Her Clothing Because She’s Obese. Was She a Jerk?

Whenever weight issues are brought up amongst friends, family members, or complete strangers, you know that it’s gonna be ugly and hurtful.

And this actually sounds like a pretty sad situation to me.

A young woman who is in design school was asked by her overweight stepsister if she could model her clothes…and then it went south in a hurry.

She shared her story on Reddit’s “Am I the *sshole?” page. Read on to find out what happened.

AITA for telling my stepsister that she can’t model my clothing because because she’s obese?

“I’m currently in a design class in college and for one of our projects, we had to create a clothing line made out of sustainable materials.

Since I love sewing and thrift-flipping, I was super excited about this. I made all the clothes based off of my own size so there isn’t a lot of size variation.

Last week, I asked two of my friends who are close to my size if they could model and I think my stepsister may have overheard because later that day, she asked me if she could model too.

I wasn’t expecting this question so I stumbled and initially told her that I’d already enough models. She didn’t take this as an answer and asked if I could just let her wear one piece since she loved how they all looked. Recently, she’s been really into modeling and photography so I get why she was so adamant.

I insisted I had enough models and that I couldn’t let her, which really upset her. She ended up going to her dad crying about it and he brought the three of us together for “conflict resolvement time.” He was on her side and asked if I could just let her do one piece.

I was getting p*ssed at this point, but I continued to say no because I know her weight is a sensitive issue for her and her dad. He called me selfish and my stepsister nodded in agreement. This was my breaking point.

I said, “I’ve been saying no this whole time because I did not want to hurt her feelings. You guys wanna know the real reason? I don’t think she’ll be able to fit into any of the clothes I created. She’s obese and I designed the clothes to fit my body type. I’m sorry.”

Well, cue the waterworks. Her father just shook his head at me in disappointment and said I didn’t need to “stoop that low.” All of us are now p*ssed off.

AITA?”

And here’s how Reddit users responded.

This person said there’s no way she acted inappropriately. The clothes were for a specific body type and her stepsister clearly wasn’t in that group.

This person thought it was okay for the woman to tell her stepsister NO, but thought calling her obese was not the best idea.

A self-described “fat girl” said that the stepsister was ridiculous to even ask to model the clothes in the first place.

Photo Credit: Reddit

This person believes that the stepsister is “pulling the fat shaming card” and is being manipulative about he situation.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Lastly, this person thinks that the woman was way out of line and could have handled the situation in a much better way. In other words, she could have been polite about it.

Woman Asks if She’s a Jerk for Forcing Her Boyfriend to Do the Dishes

This is a really weird story: I’m just gonna say that first.

I often wonder how people who are in “adult” relationships end up in these kinds of situations, and it kind of blows my mind. But, maybe that’s why I’m still single…who knows…?

Anyway, a woman took to Reddit’s “Am I the *sshole?” forum to ask if she was justified in her actions with her boyfriend who seem like a real catch.

Let’s take a look.

AITA for “forcing” my boyfriend to do the dishes?

“I’m lactose intolerant.

Every time I make tacos, my boyfriend always makes jokes about how I’m “disrespecting Mexican culture” by not having cheese in my tacos. I’ve told him multiple times I’m not going to give myself the sh*ts just to make him feel better about my friggin’ tacos (he’s not even Mexican, he’s white.).

This came to a head last night when we were having tacos again. I got up to go to the bathroom, and when I came back, I noticed my taco looked tampered with. I go to inspect, and lo and behold, there’s f*cking cheese buried underneath the other ingredients.

I told my boyfriend he was a raging do*che canoe and went to bed, leaving him to do the cleanup. I still haven’t spoken to him all morning, and he’s complaining about how I “forced” him to do the dishes, because normally I do them.

AITA here?”

Oh, boy…

And here’s how folks on Reddit responded.

This person made their point loud and clear: this woman needs to drop the zero and get with a hero!

Photo Credit: Reddit

Another Reddit user brought up a good point: if someone is lactose intolerant, you don’t mess with their food. EVER. That is just messed up.

Photo Credit: Reddit

This person said that she needs to dump the guy already and just get it over with.

Photo Credit: Reddit

An individual who is also lactose intolerant said that she needs to get out of this situation before it gets worse.

This is someone’s health that we’re talking about…

Photo Credit: Reddit

This person said she should make him do the dishes and THEN kick him out.

Sounds like a plan!

Photo Credit: Reddit

Finally, a Mexican person weighed in and said that they don’t even put cheese on their tacos, so this guy doesn’t even know what the hell he’s talking about.

Is This Single Mom a Jerk for Saying That Daughter Inherits House “No Matter What”? Here’s What People Said.

Things in life can seem just fine until money or property is involved. You know what I’m saying, right?

And that’s why this story obviously touched a nerve for the woman who wrote it. It concerns her house that she eventually wants to give to her daughter…but now there’s a man involved…

Check out this story from Reddit’s “Am I the *sshole?” page.

AITA for saying that my daughter inherits my house “no matter what”?

“I’m a single mom in my 50s with one daughter. I got very lucky in that I bought a home in the Bay Area nearly 30 years ago for around $230K before the tech boom and now the house is worth about $1M.

I have a 23 year old daughter Camila who grew up in that house and she moved out last year to go live with her boyfriend. I’ve never explicitly told my daughter “the house will be yours” nor has she asked anything about it, but just sort of common sense – that’s my daughter. Who else would I give it to?

One important note – There are 2 homes in the neighborhood that are owned by lower middle class people (me and a neighbor who’s been here as long as I have). Otherwise, our neighbors are engineers and software developers. The Bay Area is simply un-affordable if you’re not in tech. My daughter is a hair stylist.

My fiance Steven and I have been together for 2 years. He has 2 young children (elementary school) he has joint custody of who I adore and I’m excited to help raise them. Steven and I don’t have a ton in the bank so a pre-nup seemed silly if it weren’t for the house.

I told him that I’m ready to combine finances and plan long term with him, but I wanted a pre-nup agreement just for the house. It’s a non-negotiable for me that my daughter inherits the house. He wasn’t happy with this. He said that $1M split 3 ways is enough for all 3 kids to get a headstart in life.

I disagree, I paid 80% of the mortgage by myself and Camila is my only child. She can have her dream life (working as a hair stylist, living in the Bay Area) with this house but will be unhappy (have to move out to a less desirable area) if it’s split.

I spoke to Camila about this and she agrees that she should get the house and said she always planned on inheriting it, just like I always planned on giving it to her.”

Readers shared their opinions about this conundrum.

This person said that she’s only been with this guy for two years and that his demanding part of the house is totally absurd.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Another reader said that the woman needs to talk to an attorney ASAP to figure the situation out.

Photo Credit: Reddit

This person pointed out that she needs to put her daughter’s name on the property as well. You have to cover your bases when it comes to this kind of stuff…

Photo Credit: Reddit

This individual talked about how important prenups are how it has to be written in stone. You gotta be careful with this stuff!

Photo Credit: Reddit

This reader said that the woman bought the house long before this Steven character was in the picture…and that it’s kind of presumptuous for him to think that he and his kids would get a piece of the action after they’ve only been together for two years.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Finally, a Reddit user talked about how the woman needs to give the whole thing to her daughter because she did all the hard work and living in the Bay Area is EXPENSIVE, so everything should go to her daughter.

Okay, now it’s your turn to weigh in.

Tell us what you think about this situation. And be honest with us!

I disagree, I paid 80% of the mortgage by myself and Camila is my only child. She can have her dream life (working as a hair stylist, living in the Bay Area) with this house but will be unhappy (have to move out to a less desirable area) if it’s split.

I spoke to Camila about this and she agrees that she should get the house and said she always planned on inheriting it, just like I always planned on giving it to her.”

Readers shared their opinions about this conundrum.

This person said that she’s only been with this guy for two years and that his demanding part of the house is totally absurd.

Another reader said that the woman needs to talk to an attorney ASAP to figure the situation out.

Man Asks if It Was Wrong to Throw His Mom Out of the House After She Threw Out His Weed

This headline made me laugh very, very hard.

But, everyone’s situation is different and apparently this guy and his mom are embroiled in a weird struggle with his mother.

The man shared his story on Reddit’s “Am I the *sshole?” page.

Take a look at what happened and check out how Reddit users responded.

AITA for throwing out my mom after she threw out my weed?

“So I am a 30 year old man. I’m single and live alone in a house that I own. A few months ago you know what happened and my mom lost her job. So I decided to let her stay with me.

I have a medical marijuana card and smoke every day. I knew my mom disliked weed so I warned her before she moved in that I would be smoking weed daily and would not stop for her. She agreed, and only asked that I smoke outside. Which I thought was a relatively reasonable request; weed has a strong smell and many people don’t like it.

At first this worked out fine at first. But she started making remarks about how I should quit, ect. I mostly just ignored them/brushed them off. Then it evolved to her demanding that I quit. As if I were still a child she could issue orders to.

I refused and told her that she can move out if she doesn’t like it. She started crying and saying that I don’t love her, I have a problem, ect.

The next day, I come home from work to find her waiting for me. She explained that she had flushed my weed (a little less than an ounce) for my own good. And then demanded that I go to treatment.

Well, predictably, I was furious. And not even really about not having the weed anymore. It is pretty cheap (I usually buy ounces for $125) and I can easily get more.

It was about her total lack of respect for me. I’m an adult, own my own house, have a good job, and have approval from the state to legally purchase and possess marijuana.So someone I’m doing a huge favor for demanding that I stop and throwing out my stuff when I refused is extremely outrageous to me. No matter if she pushed me out of her vagina 30 years ago.

Anyway, we argued about this for a while and it became clear to me that she was not sorry at all and that she would probably do it again. So I told her she can’t live with me anymore. I gave a month, but she has already packed all her sh*t and drove to my brothers house a couple hours away.

She obviously thinks I’m a huge *sshole. So does my brother. But I think that’s mostly because she is his problem now.”

Let’s see what people had to say about this.

This person stated the obvious: this guy is an adult and he doesn’t need his mom’s approval for anything. Times have changed, Mom!

I love this one: “Master level boundary setting.” I’m gonna have to start using that…

This person made it very clear where they stand. The man OWNS the house and his rules are the only ones that matter.

Another person made an observation that I like to make all the time: why is it okay to drink yourself into oblivion but marijuana is considered horrible by some people?

This Reddit user also thinks that this guy is not wrong in this situation. And he also made it clear BEFORE his mom moved in that he wasn’t going to quit smoking weed.

Some people…

Finally, this person commended the man for setting boundaries and said something that we should all shout from the rooftops: your house, your rules!
