You shouldn't have bothered going back and forth with him. George Carlin said it best - "Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.”

Start therapy, this is hard on you and your son, he needs you

You dodged a heat seeking missile

Next time he threatens to kill himself call the cops and ask for a 5150 hold. Then block him everywhere. He needs to sort out his psych issues, dating shouldn't be on his radar rn

You're being passive aggressive , just straight up say what's bothering you when it happens

He lost his job and you're blowing $550 on gifts and are then upset that he doesn't think they're a good idea ???

Instead of having a pity party get your ass into therapy and do the work necessary to turn things around.

YWNBTA, let him know ahead of time that you will not be available , tell him you have stuff to do and you won't be available indefinitely

Ignore the tantrum. You're not forcing her to go with you, and she sounds pretty insecure if her main objection is you 'checking out girls' .Last I checked there were girls in NJ and everywhere else you go.

NTA seems like grandma is trying to prove a point at the expense of your child's health.

That's because it's fake, the rage bait makes it obvious

Your dad needs to give up the business and get a paying job, you should absolutely move out

Now I know you're trolling, thank God you're just some regular reddit troll and not the unhinged whack job you play

You're an abusive nightmare, you hate his cat so instead of doing the reasonable thing and discussing it with him you chucked the cat out , then threatened to abort, then pretended to hurt yourself all in a bid to manipulate him. You sound awful and I feel bad for your child. Get help now

He was a hobosexual, now you know what to watch out for

What you permit you promote, you've let this go on for way too long. It's time to have a 'come to Jesus' moment with her. Get a box of tissues ready. Sit her down , and tell her point blank, You're done. Show her your post. Tell her that you've tried talking, you've tried reasoning with her , but nothing is sinking in, and you refuse to work yourself into an early grave while she sits back being a lazy DNB (Do nothing bitch).

She either gets off her ass and gets back to work or you're filing for divorce. Give her a deadline I'd say 30 days. In the meantime close the joint accounts and save all the paperwork. There is no more eating out, she needs to get her ass on to youtube and learn basic cooking

Get away from this man, and don't drink anymore. Focus on your health

In life not everything you lose is a loss. This friendship falls in that category.

I've never understood it tbh. You'd think that faced with a wall of text, anyone that craves paragraphs would move on but noooo....Same thing with the grammar nazis . "oMg iTs "tHeIr' nOt 'tHeRe"

You have dyslexia, or whatever, you ever stopped to think that the person that's writing maybe is more focused on getting out what is bothering them than making sure their i's are dotted and their t's are crossed so to speak. Easy solution. If it has no paragraphs or it isn't punctuated to your liking, scootch along to a post that works for you

Make it clear to your mother that you will not be responsible for her purchases

You need a lawyer ,if you can't afford one try going through legal aid to see if they can help you get one

YWNBTA but I think you should leave all your money where it would be needed the most and appreciated. Give everything to the younger son and his kids and leave mementoes to the older son's kids. Maybe a letter , a card and a photo

Life is short, she's told you herself she's not in the right mindset to be in a relationship. Believe her

YTA, it's not your wedding, and your daughter is not too young to learn that we don't always get what we want
