Would you be mad???

My bf decided to take the day off work today and hid it from me. He took our son to my moms to be babysat (she normally watches him when we work), turned off his location and all the cameras In our home so I wouldn’t get any notifications and notice he was home. I’m furious. Like overly furious, to an extent that I ...

Am i being overly cautious or reasonable?

So my husband is kind of upset with me. We usually take a shower together after our daughter (who's 1y and 9m) goes to bed. Tonight he's really tired and said he wanted to put our daughter in her room and close the door while we shower. I told him I'm not going to do that because frankly, she could choke and die in ...

I need some advice please. So last week my daughter (19 months) fell and broke off her front teeth at the store. I asked my partner to stay home with her while I ran to the store but he insisted on going… I’m holding so much resentment

I’m holding so much resentment and idk how to fix it. Like I know it’s not really his fault but I can’t help it. If he would have just stayed with her like I ask she never would have fell and ruined her teeth. I genuinely don’t want to talk to him or be affectionate at all. What should I do or how do I get over this...

Horrible partner or overreacting?

I’ve been diagnosed with Hyperemesis Gravidarum in my pregnancy. Luckily, my medication has been working to stop me from being sick but it leaves me feeling super drowsy. Whenever I explain to my partner that I’m tired or to help out with the laundry or our 18 month old son he just complains saying that I’m always ...

Please no judgement

I have been married for 13 years and have 3 kids. I absolutely love my family, love family life, love being married BUT I am deep in my heart that I am married to the wrong person.

AITA

I grew up with my mother, who was very mentally ill. One day while I was out she changed the locks and moved house, but didn't tell me. So I came home to a locked, empty house, and no idea where she had gone or where I should go. I was a teenager at the time. She has since came back into my life but our relationshi...

Child’s father

I have a 14 month old and I’m 30 weeks pregnant with my second. My entire pregnancy has been stress and misery because I have an emotionally and verbally abusive partner. When I tell you everything is an argument, it just doesn’t even make sense. I’m at the point where I don’t want to continue being in a relationshi...
