AITAH for telling my husband he is not my life?

I (F 28) have always been very family oriented. Everyone in my family and extended family lives nearby, at most an hour away. I am an only child and planned to always live near my parents too.

When I started dating my husband, around 8 years back, I told him all of this. Basically that I want to live near my family my whole life. He agreed to it. He moved away from his family (8hour drive) to live with me near mine.

But 3 years after marriage, he says he wants to move. To a city with better work opportunities. I agree work opportunities are not great here. But cost of living is pretty low too. And since we don't plan to have children, our salaries are more than sufficient for a good life.

I reminded him of his promise. He was mad I am still prioritizing my family over him. I told him he knew this about me, I can't ask 100s of people to move elsewhere and I don't want to see them only at weddings. He told me he is my partner and despite anything else, I should be prioritizing him. I told him as much as I loved him, he is one among many people I love. He is a part of my life, not my whole life. I can't leave my family and life here.

He got upset at that and left the conversation. He is not talking to me now. When I told my friend, she said I was an AH to tell him like that...

My wife asked me how much I have in my savings account?

So my wife (36 f) today asks me how much I have in my savings account. We have been together for 6 years and married for one of those years in May. We don't share bank accounts, her money is hers, and mine is mine.

We are sitting cooking dinner in the air fryer when she just out of the blue asks, how much do you have in savings? For me, it's not any of her business and I told her that. She is upset that she wanted me to take out money to go to the casino and I said no because I budget and don't touch savings.

Am I wrong for not telling her how much I have in savings? UPDATE: I haven't had the chance to read all the comments, I've skimmed some of them. I ended up showing her how much I had in my savings.

She is not a gambling addict and has not spent all her money on gambling. Last week we were planning to go to the casino. She said, 'Hey, you should take out X amount from your savings so we can play with more money.

I did tell her no, that I didn't want to touch my savings. And then yesterday, out of the blue, she ask, how much do you have in your savings account. No we are not addicted to gambling.

Everyone else spends money on concerts, traveling, sports events, trips, etc. This is our fun. We set aside money for it, and then go when we have a certain amount.

AITA for kicking out my brother because he brought over a tinder h**kup while he was supposed to be watching my son?

I'm posting here because I don't know if I made the right decision and I still have time to reverse it. I don't want what is TECHNICALLY right, I know I can kick anyone out of my house who is an adult and not paying rent. I just want to know if I was an a__hole for this.

My brother was supposed to be watching my son (3 years old) while I was visiting family. He sent me these weird texts right before I got home until he called and explained to me he had a date come over, but she started acting really crazy and hasn't left. When I got back home, the girl was still there, CRYING.

I tried to talk to her but she wasn't saying anything that made sense. My brother said he didn't do anything to her, they started hooking up and then she started freaking out. I ended up driving her home in her car and she explained things a little more to me, but not why she was so upset.

She did say she just met him on Tinder, and I told her I couldn't believe she talked a little bit with a guy on Tinder and just...went to his house? I tried to give her a safety talk but she just told me she wasn't in the right state of mind at the time which confirmed her problem wasn't my brother. I told my brother I couldn't believe he brought a stranger over when my son was there and he said he was asleep the whole time....

AITA for turning in a school project that showed my neighborhood and neighbors in a bad light?

Edit -I had the meeting with my principal. See the bottom for an update. I'm a high school student in a Spanish class and we had an assignment to make a video tour of a place.

It had to be in Spanish, and had to be conversational like you were showing a friend around. I decided to just walk around my street and make a tour of that because my family wasn't going anywhere else. So I filmed: A neighbors house.

When I walked by they were having a screaming fight like usual 'Here are the neighbors, they are very angry. They like to yell in the morning, afternoon, and night.' The next neighbors house 'Joe and Tammy live here, they are very nice and have three dogs' Someone drives by and catcalls me profanely. As a joke I yell back 'ESTUPIDO PERRO' which means 'stupid dog' then he slammed his brakes and yelled something r__ist before speeding off.

I said to the camera 'This man is very stupid. He is a man but acts like a dog.' (Edit to clarify something, I'm white but I think this i__ot assumed I as Hispanic because I was speaking Spanish. A lot of people in the comments are talking about my experiences as a person of color, and I just wanted to clear up that I'm not, and don't want to speak for the people who actually experience this kind of s__t regularly.

Because one rude comment is nothing like having those kinds of experiences all your life.) I also introduced 10 other mundane things like...

AITA for saying I’m bilingual when I know ASL?

For context: Some of my family members are deaf/HOH. Because of that, everyone in my family knows ASL. It was actually my first language because my dad is deaf. Most people don’t know i know ASL because there usually isn’t a reason for me to sign.

I (16 f) was with my friends, and a new girl that my other friends know (18f). She was saying how she was sorry if sometimes she has trouble speaking because English isn’t her first language. I told her it was fine and it wasn’t mine either. And we moved on.

Later that day, we were at the skatepark and our ethnicities came up. She was bragging about knowing Spanish because her mom was from Mexico. And she turned to me and asked what other language I spoke. I told her ASL. She didn’t like that. She went on a whole rant about how it wasn’t a ‘real language’ because it didn’t have culture.

She kept saying it was ‘glorified Morse code’ because all you need to do is know the alphabet. I tired telling her that wasn’t true and it has grammar very different than normal English. Eventually I just said we should drop it but she wouldn’t.

She is currently spamming the group chat with articles about how easy it is to learn or social media posts about how ASL isn’t a language. And even scientific papers about that Gorilla that ‘knew sign language’. Spoiler alert, it didn’t. Our friend group is divided because on one hand ASL might be easier to learn than most languages...

AITA for telling my mom’s new husband that she has kids?

When I was 15, my mom left the family. For a long time, no one knew where she was or even if she was okay. Eventually, it was discovered that she was just “too o__rwhelmed” and left to handle herself. My brothers and I were raised by our uncle and my dad from that point on, but it was hard. I became like my brothers’ mom and had to grow up quicker than I probably should’ve. I got into therapy and a few years back and have been doing better.

Recently, I found my mom on Facebook. It was by pure mistake because I reconnected with some other maternal family members that I guess are friends with her. She had the same first name and looks pretty much the same, with just a different last name. The more I looked at her page, however, I saw that she had gotten remarried not long after she left my dad and had basically started a new family. She has kids ranging in age from 2-10 years old. My husband told me to leave it alone, but I was so angry and I just couldn’t handle it, so I ended up finding out her husband’s FB and messaged him, saying that his wife had 5 other kids that she had abandoned, did he know that? My mom ended up messaging me, pi**ed, saying I had made her husband mad because he didn’t know. To me, that’s not my problem. You can’t just run off and n__lect my responsibilities. However, my brothers and husband think I was the a__hole. AITA?

AITA for demanding one-on-one time with my mom, because her friend’s autistic daughter is living with her?

Small details have been changed. Here's some background. So my mom's best friend is a very wealthy posh woman.

My mom's best friend has a highly autistic child, I'll call her Flower. She leaves her daughter with my mom often to babysit. Flower can do things for herself, but she can't live on her own, work, has no concept of money or time, and communicating is very challenging.

So, I live overseas and I'm going back home for the holidays. Because I know how c__ngy Flower is with my mom, I asked her not to plan sleepovers while I am there. Or atleast, only have one while I'm there.

She kinda agreed and quickly changed topic. I found this reaction a little weird so I started to take account of how often Flower was by mom. I didn't ask right out , but just noticed If I hear her whenever I called my mom.

I noticed Flowers voice every time I called. Every time! A month before my flight I asked her point blank if she told Flower that she won't have that many sleepovers with my mom while I was home.

She avoided the question, but I kept asking and not letting her change the subject. Flower has been living with her for the past 3 years !! And she wasn't really gonna tell me because she expects me to just accept it and be okay with it.

Basically Flower has refused to go home. My mom and her parents have just let her stay with my mom after she has...

AITA for my reaction to my brothers “gift”?

I'm not a writer, so bear with me. Me (24M) and my family do a yearly weekend trip in december every year. The trip typically includes renting a very nice airbnb and several 'outings', some geared towards the men in the family (gun range, axe throwing, etc.), and others for the women (shopping trip, water park with the kids, etc.).

I've been openly gay for 8 years now and the majority of the family has come to terms with it by now, that is, everyone except my older brother (28M). for context, my older brother (we'll call him Isaac) has a tendency to poke fun at people and try to get a rise out of them. The family finds this absolutely hilarious and will often join in.

Personally i don't mind this, however, ever since i came out 8 years ago, Isaac will take any opportunity to make my sexuality the b__t of the joke. i've told him on multiple occasions that jokes about my sexuality tend to sting a bit more and asked that he not do that, but nothing works to get him to stop. That brings us to the last night of the trip.

I had separated from the guys group for all the outings, because the girls activities just seemed more fun. on the final night of the trip, the entire family was gathered in the living room to open gifts, when Isaac announces that he got me a gift this year because he felt bad that i had missed the guys activities. he then proceeds to hand me a bag...

AITA for Breaking Up with My Girlfriend After She Kept Making Fun of Me for Growing Up Wealthy?

I (20M) grew up in a wealthy family. My parents worked hard for their success, and I've always been grateful for the opportunities I've had. I try to stay humble about my background and avoid flaunting it.

I started dating my girlfriend (19F) about a year ago. At first, everything was great, and we really connected. But over time, she started making comments about my upbringing.

It began as light teasing, which I could handle, but it gradually became more mean-spirited. Whenever we were out with friends, she'd make jokes about me being a 'spoiled rich kid' or not knowing the value of money. She'd laugh it off and say she was just joking, but it started to bother me.

I tried talking to her about it, but she'd brush it off and say I was being too sensitive. She'd also bring up how I already have a job lined up after college thanks to my dad's connections. She'd say things like, 'Must be nice to not have to worry about job hunting like the rest of us,' or, 'Of course you have everything figured out; you've never had to struggle.' The breaking point came at a friend's party.

She went on a rant about how I had never worked for anything and how everything was handed to me on a silver platter. She even said I couldn't understand real struggles because of my privileged background. I was humiliated and hurt.

After the party, I told her that her comments were disrespectful and that I couldn't be with someone who belittled me like...

AITAH for leaving my children's stepsiblings in the care of their babysitter when my ex and his wife were in an accident?

I (32f) have two children (11 and 10) with my ex-husband (34m). We divorced 7 years ago and have not been able to remain on good terms. He remarried 3.5 years ago and the bad blood between us grew worse at that point. She was never happy about my presence at school functions for the kids and she'd always make a point of sitting between me and my ex and complaining that the kids would hug me first. But that wasn't the worst of it. At one of those school functions she accused me of pinching her daughter. Luckily others saw what happened and knew I hadn't. But this woman went ballistic accusing me. Why? I stopped her 4 year old (at the time) from falling over.

After that I made sure I sat the other side of any room as them and I swore I would have nothing to do with this woman's children (she has two). The lucky thing for me is my kids aren't close to them and don't ever ask to invite them over or include them in birthday parties that I throw for them. This makes it easier to keep my distance so no more accusations come my way. And this woman still brings up the pinching accusation and how she should have called the cops and had me thrown in jail.

A few weeks ago my ex and his wife were in a car crash. It was his custody week (we split the kids 50-50). His babysitter called me after they didn't come back home and told me she had...
