I (28F) have been busting my butt for years to save for my own house. I work in software, so I make decent money, but it still takes forever to build up a good down payment. Meanwhile, my younger sister (25F) is in grad school with barely any credit. Our parents (both mid-50s) found a […]

My husband used to go out with his high school friends Christmas night, while they were in town. I will admit I’ve never liked this tradition. To me, Christmas day is time to spend with family, not friends. The last few years, this has not even happened. Almost everybody has families and/or has moved on.

This one is general. I am a guy who, when I don’t enjoy something, I’ll tell you I don’t, but if I commit to something, I’ll see it through to the end without complaining. This comes to a head where I was on vacation with my older brother in Arizona, who wanted to do a

I work at a restaurant as a server. One of my coworkers moved up here from Georgia for college and started working here a few months ago. She constantly lays on the “southern charm” thing thick. She calls everyone “honey” and “sweetie” and all of that. She also tends to chitchat with people instead of

Throw away account as my son knows my real one, and I want some advice. I (34M) got a 16-year-old son with my ex (34F). We had our son way too early in life; we lived on the same street growing up and knew each other from school. We fooled around sometimes and the rest
NTA. It’s your money, and you have every right to protect it, especially since you’ve been working hard to save for your future. While it’s admirable to help your family, giving your mother unrestricted access to your savings account is a step too far. It puts you at risk of losing the financial stability you’ve
I’m currently hiding in our bedroom with a bottle of wine, while my husband plays video games in the living room, probably telling his online friends how I “ruined Christmas.” My phone is blowing up with texts from his mom, calling me selfish, and I’m debating whether I should just block her until New Year’s.
My (28F) brother (30M) and his wife (27F) had their first baby a year ago. I’ve been helping them out by babysitting for free a couple of days a week since they can’t afford daycare, and I work from home. I genuinely love my niece, and I was happy to help out at first. However,
EDIT: paraphrased some direct quotes and removed some potentially identifiable info. My brother and his now wife got married three days ago. A very small destination ceremony under 15 people total. My now fiancé and I extended our trip after everyone went home and spent a couple of days exploring the Grand Canyon, a couple

I (45M) don’t have living parents, so all family gatherings are with my wife’s (36F) family. Early on, I often felt like an outsider at these events. Her father made it clear he didn’t think I was “good enough for his daughter,” and her mother and I had a strained relationship due to our differing
