My wife (25F) and I (27M) had arrange marriage in Nov 2025. We live without parents and she's a housewife. I always had maid for cleaning and laundry, so only thing she was expected to properly do was cooking and keeping the home organized. I was open about it since start: If she wants me to handle all her finance alone for lifetime, provide her with housing and vehicle for free, then this is the least what I expect her to do.

During first two months of marriage, she did her role acceptably. However, there's a steady decline overtime. Now, 7/10 times she makes Maggi/bread/noodles and other trashy but quick food in breakfast. For dinner, her frequency of ordering online has increased. Earlier it was once a week but now it's 2-3 times a week. I don't like to eat outside food this frequently.

Recently, I came back home just to see the same spicy food she ordered. When I asked her to cook at home she asked me to stop complaining and just eat. AN argument started. She said things like she's not my cook, I shouldn't complain as I was living alone before marriage too, why don't I cook etc. In response I asked her then what's the point of this marriage for me if I've to still manage everything alone? Now I've to also handle an adult like a baby, who brings nothing to the table. If she wants me to pick up cooking, then she must pick up a job first.

After the fight she started packing her bags and threatened to leave. But I'm not the type of person who would tolerate adult throwing tantrums and giving threats like that, so I didn't stop her. Now, she's living at her parents house since 20+ days. My parents kinda side with me but still expect me to "compromise" by visiting her parents' home, and request her to come back.

But I absolutely won't do that, as it would mean enabling her and accepting that it's my fault. Which I don't think it is. Honestly speaking, my life has been much more peaceful since she left. AITK here?

I'm 24M from NCR. In my family, Damadji (Son in-law) is treated like a king. Personally, I don't believe in all this.

My 27F sister is married in an abusive household since 1.5 years. They were showing huge red flags even before mariage. But my parents and sister still accepted it as the guy is Richie rich and good looking. She realised that she's in deep sh!t just 3-4 months after marriage.

For example: She's forced to make 3-4 types of breakfasts daily for all house members. Her husband is very short tempered and in-laws are pro-level narcissists.

Our parents ask her to silently tolerate it. They say that they won't accept her if she divorces him. She doesn't earn. I've told her many times to divorce, but she has never taken my advice.

I'm a SDE and live alone in a high-rent 2 bhk. Even though I can comfortably live at parents' house, I still don't. This is how much I value my privacy and personal space.

Around 15 days ago, she came to my place with bags unannounced. As a brother, my first instinct was to support her. But, it's affecting my mental peace.

  • She's living here for undefined duration. I feel like I got caught in the middle of a crossfire.
  • Our parents absolutely hate it that I'm giving her shelter. I don't wanna ruin my good relations with them.
  • Privacy was the main reason why I'm paying so much rent. My privacy is significantly affected now.

Yesterday, her husband came here and tried to grab her arm in order to take her back. When I interfered, he tried to push me. But I pushed him off instead.

But then, she slapped me for "raising hands on my jijaji". That guy smirked at my face and left. I never felt so betrayed and embarrassed in my life.

Now, I've told her to get out of my house within 1 week. Which means she'll have to go back to her in-laws. AITK?

I (21F) live with my boyfriend (20M) in a 1BHK flat. Initially, he lived in another flat in the same building, but after graduating this year, he decided to stay back in the city where I study instead of returning to his hometown (which is also my hometown). This decision went against his parents’ wishes, but he still chose to stay and recently got a job at one of the Big 4 companies, where he’s doing well.

He often says I played a big role in motivating him to take life more seriously, and that before me, he probably wouldn’t have been this focused.

Now, the issue: his parents, especially his mom, wanted him to return home. During one of their arguments, he mentioned me, not in full detail, but did tell them that he’s seeing someone and that it’s more than just casual.

For context, I’m Muslim and he’s Hindu. I’ve always been upfront with him that my mom would never accept this relationship, although my younger brothers would likely support me. My dad has passed away, and I’ve lived independently for most of my life since my mom remarried, so while we’re close, her approval isn’t something I depend on.

He, on the other hand, always described his parents, especially his mom, as educated and open-minded.

Recently, I met his mom for the first time. She seemed quite reserved, so I kept things polite and didn’t push conversation too much, even though I’m generally very extroverted.

Yesterday, he was on a call with his mom on speaker, and I overheard the entire conversation. She told him to end things with me because she didn’t like that I’m Muslim. She even told him to watch “The Kerala Story” and asked if I’ve watched it. She repeatedly questioned whether he loves me and whether he has committed anything serious to me.

She also told him that since he now has a good job, he shouldn’t “limit his exposure” to a college relationship and could find someone better, specifically someone from the same religion. She encouraged him to mentally prepare both himself and me for a breakup and not to commit to me.

She also mentioned that when she met me earlier this month, she felt my “vibe was off,” even though we barely interacted.

On top of that, she asked if I consume beef (I don’t), and made comments about not tolerating disrespect toward her religion, while also implying that I wouldn’t tolerate criticism of mine either. I found this strange because no one was even talking about disrespecting any religion.

What hurt me the most was that my boyfriend didn’t strongly defend me. He did say that I’m the best person he’s met and that we get along well, but he also downplayed the relationship by saying he’s not planning to marry me anytime soon and that there’s plenty of time to think about all this, basically making it sound like it’s not that serious.

After the call, I told him that I found his mom’s comments narrow-minded and that I need to reconsider some things. He got upset and said that she’s his mom, and that she’s speaking from personal experience (his parents themselves are from different linguistic backgrounds—his dad is Telugu and his mom is Marathi).

Now I’m really confused and disturbed.

Am I wrong for feeling this way? Is my boyfriend at fault for not defending me properly? Or am I overreacting?

Post update

  1. No me and my boyfriend don’t plan to marry right away ofc, but we do want to marry young (25-26ish) so that we can travel the world

  2. I have already had a conversation about marriage with my boyfriend way too many times, and every time he reiterates that he is serious and he wants to see us ending up together married. Again these were his words even before I thought about it this way.

  3. He has never mentioned my religion being the main problem for his family ever before this conversation I was completely kept in the dark about the extremity of his parents

So this happened a few days ago and I am still thinking about it, A girl in my class got 21 gifts from her boyfriend on her 21st birthday. Total worth was around 28-30k, I think. We’re all 20-21 years old and none of us earn yet and they started dating 2.5 months back only.

Some girls were discussing how loving her boyfriend was for giving her so many gifts. The girl and boy weren’t present there, I was part of the conversation and I just said that girls shouldn’t accept very expensive gifts from their boyfriends, especially when the guy doesn’t even earn yet. Small dates or thoughtful gifts are still fine, but accepting 21 gifts is just extreme.

My reasoning was that

  1. later there can be pressure to match the same effort or money spent.

  2. Also if they break up in future the guy will leave no chance to use that against her, call her a gold digger or keep boasting about how much he spent on her.

  3. And God forbid if he turns out controlling or abusive in the future, he may start seeing those gifts as some kind of pass to cross boundaries or feel entitled to something in return.

The group didn’t take it well. Some called me a party pooper and said everyone has their own choices. A few said I’m only saying this because I don’t have a boyfriend and that I’d do the same if I did 🤡. One girl called me a pick me because she thought I was implying the girl was a gold digger ( I was not ) I was just giving my perspective

Was I really the k to say that ?

Edit - since people are saying that they could be from rich families, so no they are from middle class families, the girl has taken admission via drcc which is a scholarship for students from Bihar

Also the guy is from my school 😭 he was infamous there for such things. He love bombed my school friend, gave gifts and then later called her gold digger in front of everyone when she left him bcz of his bad behaviour towards others

So I am currently vacating my hostel and I told my boyfriend I would need around 3-4 days to vacate the room entirely. He told me that last year (he is my senior) that he vacated his room in only 3 hours. He said that I am taking too much time, but honestly, I hate being rushed or being under pressure. I have moved out in one day as well but I feel like I tend to forget a lot of stuff so I prefer to take some time and rest in between. I also have a dust allergy so whenever I take out my bags, there is a later of dust on it which causes a lot of sneezing for me. I need a little rest after some work. I prefer doing things bit by bit instead of one day. He told me that I am lazy.

There is also another problem that our mess isn't operating as well so I have to order food at least twice a day. This makes me tired too as we have to collect it from our main gate and it's a little far.

Are my feelings valid or am I really lazy?

I'm very confused and i definitely need some advice.My dad has always been the best father ,he provided everything for me right from childhood and went above and beyond to provide whatever I wanted .He is the best husband to my mother and they never had any problems or fights ever.

I thought I had the perfect family and parents untill recently.I saw my dad texting with someone in disappearing chats on Instagram and it was suspicious to me .I didn't think much of it but I had to make sure this time coz I came home for a month to WFH

It was someone working for him in his company and those reel she was sending were definitely not something one sends to their boss.They were more love and relationships kinda reels. I got even more suspicious and wanted to see what's happening.My dad doesn't know I have my fingerprint on his phone .I logging into his instagram on my phone and kept track of what they were chatting on disappearing messages.

Now I'm fully sure is cheating.He was saying I love to that girl and she was too and discussing how it's been a long time since they had sex or something and they were sending private picture and shit like that.

I'm still in denial about this because my dad is the last person who would do something like this but I feel like I should confront him.But on the other hand i feel like I will be disturbing my perfect family if i do it.

I wish I never got to see it.What would you do if you were in my position?

So my boyfriend and I went to a park recently, and neither of us really knew the route. Everything was fine on the way there, but when we were leaving, things got messy.

While driving, he took a wrong turn that wouldn’t lead us to our next destination. Instead of correcting it normally, he suddenly put the car in reverse and ended up backing into a nearby truck. There was some damage to the car (not huge, but definitely noticeable).

Right after it happened, he got really upset and started blaming me. He said it was my fault because I didn’t have the map open on my phone to guide him, and that I “just wanted to be a passenger princess.” He also said the music distracted him and that I should have turned it off when I saw him reversing.

But here’s the thing: the music automatically starts playing because his phone connects to the car as soon as he gets in. I didn’t turn anything on myself.

This isn’t the first time something like this has happened. There have been 3-4 instances where he’s asked me to check the map, and if I make a mistake or we take a wrong turn, he starts shouting at the top of his lungs saying I don’t know how to read a map.

There have even been more than one instance where he’s slapped me on my arm or back during these situations.

Also, do men really get this angry when their wife or girlfriend gives a wrong direction or misses a turn, or is this not normal?

Now he’s saying the whole situation is my fault and has basically stopped talking to me. AITK?

I’m feeling really lost right now. I recently saw an online modeling gig offering 30k and, thinking it was a great opportunity, I signed up. I sent over my standard photos and the physical measurements they required (height, bust, waist, etc.).

It turned out to be a scam. I feel stupid enough as it is, but my boyfriend’s reaction has made it ten times worse. He didn't just get frustrated; he shouted at me and told me I "don't even have a brain" for falling for it.

Now, he’s claiming that I "low-key cheated" on him because the person on the other end of the scam was a man, and I sent him my photos and body stats.

I thought I was applying for a professional job, not a dating site. Is this actually cheating, or is he overreacting? I’m hurt and I don't know how to fix this.

I’m in my 20s. I have a brother who is 4 years younger than me.

I graduated college 2 years ago and I couldn’t land a job for almost a year. I was stressing, depressed, surviving on 4-5 hours of sleep, I wouldn’t go out to eat or celebrate any occasions - I was just surviving. Not one person helped me out and on top of that they’d mock me for how I was supposedly called the smarty pants of the family and there I was jobless.

This incident might seem trivial to most but there was an ice cream cart on the road and I would feed stray dogs, get them spayed, put on reflective collars etc and I was on my daily rounds to feed them some kibble and my brother accompanied me. I was next to him feeding and he just bought an ice cream for himself and started eating it. I was like you didn’t get one for me? And I was genuinely disappointed because everyone knows how much I love that stuff and I was the kind who’d get him everything I was getting like anywhere I would go, I’d get two of each so he gets to have it too and even when I cook, I make sure to feed him too. I was like you could’ve at least asked right? It was the least you could do. I just asked him why and reminded that I get him everything I get for myself. Then he proceeded to throw the ice cream on my face, kind of strangled me, and started yelling out of nowhere and said some pretty abusive things including how I was an unemployed idiot who lives off her dad, how I’m a waste of existence, because of having a sibling like me he has to suffer everyday anyway because I’m so useless and cannot earn a rupee, why would anyone get me anything.

He later said sorry after my mom asked him to but that’s one incident I can never ever get out of my mind. Like I try to look past it but something changed in my brain chemistry that day and I changed as a person. He said mean things before too and did stuff before too like when we both were home alone and I was lying there sick and wasn’t even able to stand properly, he ordered swiggy for himself and I was there all day with no food until my parents came home but nothing affected me the way the ice cream incident did.

Initially it was just me ignoring him and only looking after myself like I stopped giving him recommendations about the stock market, stopped cooking for him, stopped getting him anything from the store - just created a boundary. Now it’s gotten to a point where my dad approached me to find him an internship or recommended him to a friend of mine or give advice regarding what certifications he should get - and I just don’t want to do anything. Like anything. I don’t feel like benefitting him in any way.

On one hand I’m like that’s my little brother and I have to help him but there’s another probably selfish and bruised part of me which doesn’t let me… I mean if he gets something on his own merit, I’m happy for him, I don’t care but I don’t want to be the one giving it to him on a platter. I don’t even want to be there for anything.

So I 24F am in the process of breaking up with my boyfriend 28M like in the figuring it out and like discussing things, but I don’t know what to do. We were dating for two years and he’s a really nice guy. He’s amazing like I have no complaints in any of the specs, but I have a few concerns with it which I’ll point

  1. I come from a very very conservative family and my parents have given up a lot for me and when I spoke to my mom that I was in a relationship with a guy she was heartbroken and she told that like there’s no way for accepted and it’s gonna like really affect that and all that which I know is true because they have gone a lot because of me and like I am the most loved child, they really really love me a lot.
  2. I feel I am not attracted towards him physically anymore, our sex life feels like almost non-existent.
  3. It’s not exciting anymore mentally. I am in a very tough spot right now like I know, I am very, very vulnerable right now, dealing with clinical depression

He really does love me a lot and he wants to continue w the relationship and even I do like him

So what do I do. Did I do a right thing. I feel very hurt right now.
Also he doesn’t know that I told my mom. And I told her last night which triggered all these things

Edit- my parents will accept it eventually and Ik it.. but I don’t know if fighting is a right thing to do

I'm 23M living with my 27F unemployed sister and retired parents. In past, our parents spent a BIG part of their savings on my sister's expensive engineering college. Everything happened as per her wish. But she got totally distracted in college and she couldn't even land a 5 lpa job.

Parents spent like 25 lakhs on her college while around 9 lakhs on my same degree. Still, she's unemployed and never tries her best to get a job. Whereas I'm earning around 70k/month and handling bills of whole house alone. Due to all this, I've built a lot of resentment against her.

Even though my parents spent much more on their daughter's education than their son's education, They still believe that a man is responsible for his sister's expenses till she gets married. This pisses me off.

I wanna move out. I value my privacy and feel suffocated here. So I'm planning to stop paying for my sister's lifestyle at all (even for food, clothes). I'll give a limited amount to my parents every month (22k/month), which will be just enough to maintain their current lifestyle. It would be just enough for 2 people i.e. my parents.

If they need additional money for things like travel or healthcare, I'll give as per my capacity. But I won't pay anything for my sister. I'm thinking to announce it tomorrow and implement it from 1 July 2026. AITK???

Me: My mother's own sister passed away man.

Him: I forgot abt the funeral date is what I meant

Me: It's just been few days onlylt's rude of me to go watch a movie when my mother is mourning

AITK for refusing to share my OTT passwords anymore?

used to share my Netflix and other OTT accounts with a few friends, but over time it got annoying - too many devices logged in, profiles getting changed, random watch history, and sometimes I couldn’t even use the account I was paying for.

So I changed the passwords and stopped sharing them. Now a couple of friends are upset, saying I became stingy and that it’s not a big deal to share subscriptions with friends.

I’m still paying for everything myself, I just want uninterrupted access to the accounts I’m funding. Is that selfish, or completely reasonable? AITK?

Well my gf has a friend she calls her "brother" here in college. Both are in the same class and have been friends before i started dating her. Well after we started dating i realised she is pretty close to him compared to her other friends and she once posted a story with him sleeping on his shoulder in class. I confronted her back then too and she reassured me she will reconsider her boundaries with him.

Cut to the present, her class is on a departmental trip right now and she sent me some photos of her, most of those were with her "brother" which is fine to me but some particular photos were of her holding his arm like couples do that i didn't like, so I sarcastically replied "nice couple" to which she said what happened and i just confronted her again about the same thing and she said she did consider and this was a decent pose for a brother sister but she anyways apologised and said she would not go near guys ingeneral.

(In general I don't like that guy, he always makes me awkward whenever he and his gang catch us hanging around, I'm a little introverted so I just try to ignore them (have talked about this with her too). He even used to tell her that he saw me in the mess in this attire like he's obsessed with me or something, basically keeping eyes on me whenever he saw me)

I was just thinking, am i being too controlling or insecure?

u/Clear_Republic_683 — 7 days ago

I’m honestly really confused and a little hurt, so I need some outside perspective.

I’ve been close friends with this girl for almost 3 years. Like… not just casual friends, we were really close, talking every day, sharing everything, the kind where you assume they’ll just be in your life long-term.

But since the end of February, she’s basically ghosted me. No explanation. No fight. Just… disappeared.

For context, she’s been in an on-and-off relationship with her boyfriend since 2019, but for the past 2 years they’ve been “on.” The thing is, while being in this relationship, she’s also constantly on dating apps, meeting new people almost every day, and hooking up very frequently.
I want to be clear: I don’t judge her for her lifestyle. That’s her choice. But what bothered me was that she’s technically in a committed relationship, and I felt like it was unfair to her boyfriend. I’ve told her multiple times (nicely) that she should either break up with him or stop doing this because it didn’t sit right with me.

Around the end of February, I brought this up again… and that’s around the same time she started pulling away. So part of me feels like maybe that’s why she ghosted me?

But then there are other things that make me overthink.

We’re also in the same company. Recently, I had a really good appraisal—promotion, bonus, everything. Hers didn’t go as well. I don’t know if that could’ve affected things too.

Our personalities are also very different. She’s extremely extroverted, like, she knows everyone. She’s constantly going out with random groups from work, dating apps, mutuals, trips, parties… always surrounded by people.

I’m the opposite. I’m more introverted, I prefer a small circle, and I value deeper, stable friendships. I’ve always believed in quality over quantity.

What confuses me is that despite having so many people around her, she would still come to me and say she doesn’t have any “real” or close friends. I’ve even told her before that friendships are a two-way street—you have to show up too.
She’s also said multiple times that “girls don’t like her” and that she can’t maintain female friendships… which I didn’t fully understand because most of my close friendships are with girls, and they’re pretty strong.

Another thing, she unfollowed me on Instagram, which felt… intentional. But at the same time, she kept sending me random snaps on Snapchat like nothing happened? It felt so weird and almost insensitive, like she was ignoring actual communication but still showing me her life with other people. I eventually removed her from there because it was just making me feel worse.

I’ve tried reaching out multiple times, messages, calls, even through a mutual friend (who she’s also now ghosted??). No response.

So now I’m just stuck wondering:

Did I push her away by being honest about her relationship?
Is this about jealousy or comparison?
Did she just outgrow me?
Or was I never as important to her as she was to me?

It’s hard not to take it personally when someone you considered almost your best friend just… erases you without a word.
I don’t even know if I should try again or just accept that this is over.

Has anyone been through something like this?

What do you even do when there’s no closure?

I need an honest opinion because I’m feeling weirdly guilty about this.

So one of my old school friends (we’re not very close, just in touch occasionally) asked me for a saree I wore recently. And instead of just saying no, I lied and told her it wasn’t mine, that it belonged to my sister-in-law. I could have told her the truth, but I feel like it’s pretty normal to share clothes among friends, and I don’t think she would have understood why I don’t want that. That’s why I lied.

The truth is I really don’t like sharing my clothes. I don’t take from others either. It just makes me uncomfortable. But now I feel bad about how I handled it.

If it were my best friend, I probably would’ve given it. I have in the past, even if I didn’t fully like it. But this friend and I aren’t that close. We barely talk, and the last time I saw her was at her wedding, which she invited me to even though we were just classmates. That’s also adding to my guilt now.

The worst part is her reply made it seem like she might’ve understood I was making an excuse. So now I feel like I’ve come across as dishonest and selfish.

I’m overthinking whether I should just offer her the saree now, or let it go.

AITK for not giving her the saree?

We all know how indian parents have that obsession of controlling their child. I (21M) is their only child and also late born. Everything was going well, decent with studies, got 60% in 12th with just last moment preparation. Got into university and passed with 8.04 CGPA. Then came the Job phase. Got campus placement in a well known company which is going through some conversion issues. I waited almost 6 months without knowing what role or pay I'll get and got into some role and the salary was below par which I obv didn't want so I quit and joined a startup. Which he absolutely hated. He took my id card without my permission and posted a WhatsApp status and boasted it around.

I tried to explain that role is irrelevant to my core career as I had interest in HR. He thinks it's some kind of Top role and claims I don't want to work. Now he's always mad about it and I feel like he's gaslighting me into thinking I'm the Problem.

He always imposes anything he likes on me and claims I never force anything and he said he gave good freedom which I misused it seems.

Every night I always feel like a loser because of him. He's now blaming me for not going to the company I never wanted.

My workday ends at 6 PM, and once I finish my tasks, I leave. Lately, some coworkers have been staying late regularly, and now they make comments whenever I leave on time like, Half day today? or Must be nice having no workload.

The thing is, I complete my work properly and don’t leave anything pending. I just don’t believe staying late should automatically mean you’re more dedicated.

Now I’m wondering if I’m being insensitive to team culture, or if people have normalized overworking too much. AITK?

Note: Used AI to frame it better

Also im not able to add the chat pictures. Will add it in comments

So I’m married, in my 30s, and I put up one of those dumb “Ask me anything” stories on Snapchat just for fun.

Most questions were normal, and then one of my oldest friends (we’ve known each other almost 18–20 years) sends:

“Boyfriend/girlfriend name?”

I replied jokingly:

“My husband. Mera pati hi mera boyfriend hai.”

She then starts saying stuff like “Arre kuch masaledaar gossip bolo,” basically trying to make it spicy/funny.

I replied pretty casually that I’m not into extra-marital jokes or any of that, and that my husband is enough. I wasn’t angry, wasn’t lecturing—just making it clear that that kind of humor isn’t really my thing. I take my marriage seriously, and even joking about affairs/side pieces/etc just isn’t something I’m comfortable with.

Instead of just moving on, she doubled down.

Started with:

“Chill pill.”

“Ro mat behen, it’s sarcasm.”

“If married people can’t handle these questions maybe they shouldn’t put up ‘Ask me anything.’”

At that point I was already irritated—not because of the original joke, but because I felt like I’d clearly drawn a boundary and she was now mocking me for having one.

Things got heated, and later when I explained why I was annoyed, she literally came back with:

“PMSing? If that’s the case, I’ll let it go.”

And honestly… that is what really set me off.

Like… excuse me? “You’ll let it go?” Who exactly made you the authority here? And why are we jumping to PMS because I didn’t laugh at your jokes?

For context, this isn’t some random person. I’ve known her almost two decades, which honestly makes it sting more, not less.

Now she thinks I’m “too sensitive,” “misread sarcasm,” and “picked a fight for no reason.”

I’m at the point where I’m genuinely questioning whether I even want this friendship anymore, because this doesn’t feel like banter—it feels like someone repeatedly poking, then acting like I’m the problem when I finally react.

AITK for snapping… and WIBTK if I quietly ended this friendship over it?

Last night I went to get ice cream from a nearby shop and there was this car parked outside with aftermarket bulbs and high beams on in a fully lit city area. I genuinely hate people who use high beams like that because it blinds everyone for no reason.

I flashed my lights at him a few times thinking maybe he’d realize, but he still didn’t switch to low beam. So I got annoyed and turned on my hood-mounted aux lights (I only really use them for off-roading because my stock headlights suck) and parked facing him from like 10–15 feet away just to give him the same experience.

Then when my lights lit up the inside of the car, I realized there was a family in there with a kid just eating ice cream, and I immediately felt kinda bad. They still didn’t turned low beam and just drove away, the driver obviously wasn’t happy and said something while driving past.

My aux lights aren’t insanely bright compared to some builds, but they’re definitely brighter than normal headlights.

So yeah, AITK for doing that instead of just ignoring it?
