I am back and ready to answer more questions. I'm a little nervous for how many more questions came in the past couple hours. But let's do this!

I (hopefully) will be getting married this October to my amazing fiancé. We’ve been together for 4 years, since we were 18.

Over the past few weeks, my friends and I have done a weekly zoom call to gossip and discuss details. I asked them all to send me their intended hair and makeup for the day, to which they all did and I thought it was a reasonable request. All of them went for very similar, apart from Madeline. Madeline is the only one of the group who has hair past her chest, and due to the style, she wouldn’t be able to do the same style as everyone else. I gently suggested that she cut her hair to be able to do the same style as everyone else.

She asked if i was being serious and I said yes, that I wasn’t planning on asking but that it seemed a simple thing to do. My friends were all pretty outraged over this minor thing and now Madeline is saying she doesn’t want to even be my bridesmaid. It’s only hair, it grows back! AITA?

Before I start some context is I live in a rural area and folks are usually pretty friendly around here. I’ve lived here all my life and I’m a white man, I’ve never experienced any trouble and people especially in places like banks and grocery stores are pretty kind and nice to one another.

I was in line at the grocery store and there were 2 or 3 people behind me that I vaguely knew. No one had huge shopping carts or anything as this is a small store.

A girl came up to me, she was African American, and moving very slowly. Despite her color she was very pale and sweating and limping. She asked politely if I minded if she went ahead before me because she had just started her period and was feeling unwell. She looked like she was gonna faint.

She had milk, bread, bananas and sanitary towels and without hesitation I moved back so she could take my spot.

Now the idiots behind me started hollering that they hadn’t said she could cut, I’m physically a large man and turned around and to

Edit: GUYS! If the situation calls for an explanation and/or cooperation then of course you should fix it with dialogue.

Also if you are being threatened by an increasingly maddening individual then you should remove yourself from the situation.

Nothing applies to everything.

Edit 2: Yes, I'm advocating you do this every single time. Always. Every time till the end of times. You should never use discretion and only use this incredibly specific advice applicable to certain general situations. I have yet to hear from anyone disproving or disavowing it. Do this and only this. Forget everything else. This is the only way.

I am now in extremely shitty situation. My daughter(Jane) cut all contact with me after my wife made some racist comments about her bf. I agree what she did is disgusting but Jane told me choose either between her or wife. How the hell I am supposed to do that. TBH my wife comes from racist family I called her out many times but I think racism is deeply rooted into her now it is impossible to do anything about it. This happened five years ago, Jane and her bf getting married soon. She called me yesterday and asked for some money as she is laid off. Actually she told me to honour promise I made to all my daughters(I helped them financially when they get married). I refused. I told her I made promise to my daughter and as she denounced me as her father I am no longer going to help her out. AITA ?

Edit: There is no way I was going to divorce my wife, we are together since last 25 years. As I said I called her out many times during past. She is not vocal like she was before but she stil

30 years ago my grandfather dug a well. It supplies our home and has a pump to supply water to a mini water tower thing to give our homes water pressure.

Another person built a house nearby and there was an agreement for them to plumb into our fresh water supply for limited domestic use: Cooking, cleaning, toilets etc. This agreement has stood for 10 years without any problems.

So what's been going wrong?

The house next door was sold.

It's now starting to get hot. So the next door neighbour has been filling a swimming pool. I don't see a problem with this. What I do see a problem is they fill the pool and drain it EVERY SINGLE DAY.

Based on my calculations they're wasting close to 400,000 litres of water every single day.

When I told them they can't waste water like this. They told me to f*** myself because the water is free and nobody owns it.

So I gave them a warning showing that the water supply belonged to us and it wasn't free at all. I was told to f*** off again. I watch

I was just thinking about how when I was on my own and cut everyone off because I didn’t know who to trust. Everyone (toxic family and others) were reaching out and saying how could I do this to my mother and how hurt she is.

But why doesn’t anyone fucking ask themselves why a seemingly okay daughter would just spontaneously get her own apartment at 20 and cut off the entire family? Why a usually polite and sweet girl would turn suddenly cold to everyone?

I could not handle it anymore. I had to protect my mental and physical health. And if she hadn’t kicked me out because of not giving her more of my injury settlement money I’d probably still be there today.

I suffered so bad my first year out and had such violent nightmares and flashes. Every time there was a knock on the door or I had to take out my trash my chest would hurt and I couldn’t breathe.

Why didn’t anyone wonder how I was doing? The reasons for my silence and secrecy about where I lived? Instead everyone believed h
