I Caught My Boyfriend Filming Us for Cash and Now His Friends Are Defending Him

I (29F) recently broke up with my boyfriend (32M) after finding out something truly horrible, and I feel totally wrecked by it all. I don’t know if I’m overreacting, but I ended things and now I'm suing him, and some people in my life are acting like *I'm* the one being unreasonable. For a bit of backstory, we’ve been together just over a year. Everything seemed great, or at least I thought it was. But over the last few months, I noticed he was being a bit...weird with his phone? Always turning it away or putting it face down. He also seemed to have a lot more cash than usual, which I thought was odd because he works a normal job, and we both sometimes struggled financially. When I asked, he just brushed it off and said he was doing some side hustle and not to worry about it. Then last week, my gut feeling just went into overdrive, and I decided to snoop a bit. I know, not great on my part, but something didn’t sit right. I went through his phone (while he was asleep) and found hidden folders full of videos. Videos of *us*, taken during private moments when I had NO idea a camera was even on. I started freaking out and digging deeper, and that’s when I realized he had been posting them on a subscription site for money. I saw comments from strangers, money transactions...everything. When I confronted him the next day, he didn’t even try to deny it. He told me he needed the money and thought I’d “never find out.” He even tried to make me feel like I should just let it go because “everyone is doing this now.” He told me it was “harmless,” that people “loved” us, and that I should be proud of the attention. Proud?! I felt so disgusted and violated, I couldn’t even look at him. I told him I was done and left that day. Here’s the kicker, though: I’m suing him now. I went to a lawyer, and we’re going after him for invasion of privacy and emotional distress. I feel totally justified, but now some mutual friends are saying I’m overreacting and that it’s just the “modern way” of making money, that I should’ve been flattered by the attention. One even said maybe I should just move on because “it's not like he hurt me physically.” It’s like they don’t get how serious this is and how much this betrayal has messed with my trust. I don’t know. Am I being too harsh here? I feel like I have every right to hold him accountable, but the backlash from friends is making me wonder if I’m being unreasonable. AITA for not just breaking up but also going after him legally?

I Went to the Movies for the First Time in 7 Months and My Husband Lost His Mind

Tonight was the first time since giving birth 7 months ago that I have been out at night, by which I mean I didn’t do baby’s bedtime feed and routine. I left to go to the cinema with a friend shortly before his bedtime routine would begin. Husband used to help for the first 3 months with evenings but has since said he’s too busy/tired from work so I do it. I talked him through baby’s routine, the room temp, lighting, noise etc preferences he has and husband assured me he had everything under control. The move barely started when I started getting calls from husband. I texted to ask him what was wrong and he said baby wasn’t sleeping. I texted him back with reminders of how baby prefers things and he said he had done it all. I checked the baby monitor (camera covers most of the room) and could see that the room lights were on, the white noise machine was off, and he hadn’t tucked baby into his blanket. I texted him to say as much and he started calling me again despite knowing I’m in the theatre. He texted me to come home and put baby to bed. I told him I was sure he had everything in hand and put my phone on DND. I did periodically check on baby via the monitor and he was okay once husband actually followed the sleep routine. After the movie I saw that husband had continued to call me for like the next hour after we last spoke. When I got home he started arguing with me for ignoring his calls and berating me because I left him alone. I offered to show him bedtime for the last two days before going out and he didn’t want to know. AITA for ignoring his calls and not helping with baby?

Annoyed Man Strikes Some Silly Sexy Poses Because His Nosy Neighbor Won't Stop Filming Him, Ends Up Being Called A Creep

My dad passed away recently and he left me (26M) and my sister (31f) his house. It’s super unkempt so I’ve been doing lots of yard work outside in the mornings. I’m out there watering the grass in the mornings and evenings. Every single time I’ve done this the neighbor right next door who’s like this older granny comes out to her porch and straight up watches me without even hiding it. I introduced myself to her once that me and my sister are the new owners after my dad passed but it was obvious she didn’t wanna talk. Next thing she started coming outside with her phone pointing the camera right at me. I’m like “ is there a problem?” She says there’s no problem as long as I’m doing what I’m supposed to. I asked her why is she recording me then. Neighbor lady goes what’s the problem with me recording if you’re not doing anything wrong. It’s so fucking weird I didn’t even know how to respond to the situation. Soon as I finished up to go back inside she went back to her house too. This happens every. single. day I’m outside watering the grass. Always the same excuse that she wants to make sure I’m not doing anything else or if I do it’s on camera. So yesterday I got fed up and decided to do something different. When she came out with her phone I stuck my ass out and put my hand on my hip looking right at her. At first she was like wtf but then she got really mad when I started wetting myself with the water hose an touching my neck while literally looking directly at her. Was it stupid? Yes but she put her phone away and started cussing me out for being a pervert. My sister told me later on that she came to the house when I was at work talking about me sexually harassing her making poses in provocative ways. My sister knows she’s a pain in the ass since she probably has nothing better to do with her time. But I still shouldn’t have stooped to her level making her uncomfortable right back. I feel like I’m right on this one and it wasn’t even that bad (not like i was grabbing my balls or anything) but also can be a dumbass sometimes so idk you guys tell me. Was I an asshole?

Date Expected Me To Pay For Her Time After Bragging About Her Adult Film Career

I (33M) went on a date last night with a gal I had briefly been talking to. She was late for the date, which is fine, shit happens. I asked her if everything was okay and she replied that she had just "finished up filming" and that's why she was late. I asked her what sort of filming because I love films. She gave me this obnoxious giggle and told me to subscribe to her OF if I wanted to see. I was a bit appalled. She went on to tell me how it was a MMF video (Male/Male/Female) and then proceeded to start asking my monthly income. I excused myself to the bathroom, paid the tab for what was ordered, told them anything else she ordered is on her dime. Then I left. She messaged me later freaking out about me leaving and about how she really REALLY likes me. I just blocked her number. I don't feel a need to explain myself. It was a first date, I'm not into that, and she can obviously get someone else.

AITAH for distancing from my wife after she called an actor handsome during our romantic movie night?

So I (35M) am currently married to my wife Sharon (29F) We've been married for 4 years, together for 7. We had our monthly movie night last night which is where we have a fun relaxation night and order doordash and eat while watching movies. We were watching a movie and we were talking about the costume and makeup work and my wife decided to make a really insensitive comment, she said "Oh yeah he's quite a handsome actor". I became livid and gave her a look. I got the remote and turned off the tv and told her movie night was done and I'm sleeping on the couch. She was confused and kept saying she obviously wanted me and nobody else. Quite frankly I didnt care because at that point it seemed kind of like cheating. She kept trying to convince me to come to bed with her but eventually quit. I haven't really spoken to her today and avoid doing so as she thought it was comfortable to admit she basically didn't like me as a husband. I honestly am contemplating a divorce because her making that comment was genuinely ridiculous and stupid and she seems to not understand how hurtful it was. AITAH for telling her off about her comment? . Update: alright so my wife still wont apologize and believes im at fault, she really is gaslighting me. She said she may go stay at her mother's house. Update 2: my wife and i had an argument about it again and she kept saying i was overreacting i had snapped and i threw a fork at her while i was eating food. I wont lie i think i may have went a tadbit overboard but she is still refusing to admit shes wrong and i told her she may have to stay with her mother for a bit and so her mother is coming to pick her up later. Update 3: My wife is now with her mother. I think her mother in law told the rest of her family as well as my family because people keep blowing up my phone and trying to hear the story of what happened. Everyone saying im insecure, how would you feel if your spouse was talking about how hot someone else was leaving you in your tracks huh?. Update 4: If I apologize to my wife will that make everyone calm down, i love my wife and i would never hurt her. Update 5: Our youngest (3M) is trying to get in the middle of it. He asked me where mommy is and I told him she's not going to be around for a while anf he started crying. I comforted my son but that wicked witch is not coming near my son again with her ways and tricks. . Update 6: Do you guys know who Lorena Bobbitt is . Update 7: I may allow my wife under the house under a few circumstances. She must apologize and wear a shock bracelet and whenever she acts up ill shock it to teach her a lesson. . Update 8: MWAHAHAHAHA thanks for the karma you fools. Check the subreddit and flair 😏. I have once again trolled the fellow users of reddit with my clever and realistic shitpost. 😈 Looks like I even broke the record here for most commented post and most shared with my other shitpost receiving 1.6k shares.

AITA because I will not watch anything more complicated than a Hallmark movie with my wife.

I love my wife. She is intelligent, and sweet. Also she is beautiful inside and out. She teaches high school English and Social Studies. She loves novels and usually has several on the go. However she cannot follow the plot of a movie to save her life. Unless it is about a big city lawyer visiting her home town to shut down the local factory but instead reconnecting with her high school boyfriend who is also the local baker and mayor. I've known this about her for years and I have accepted it. I just like vegging with her so I am happy to see white people rediscovering the magic of Christmas. Or whatever. When we were dating we watched The Matrix. The questions she asked had me wondering about her. Ditto for anything complex. Even The Usual Suspects where they lay everything out for you she didn't get the ending. We had her sister and brother-in-law over for a couples night on Friday. We made supper and the plan was to watch a movie. Hee sister wanted to watch Shutter Island. I will not spoil it but the movie has many twists. The ending is awesome. I tried my best to suggest anything else. The new Laura Dern movie where she bangs the kid from Hunger Games. They all ganged up on me and said we were watching Shutter Island. My wife proceeded to embarrass herself by not understanding the ending and asking questions that were not great. Her sister and her husband were looking at my wife like she was Simple Jack. I tried my best to cover for her or telling her I would explain it later. She got mad at me for not just answering her questions. After they left she started in in me. She said that she noticed that we always watched a certain kind of movie and that she thought I enjoyed them. I said I did because we got to spend time together and that mad me happy. She said that she was not an idiot and that she just didn't concentrate on movies. She recited the plots of several novels to prove her point. I said that I had never commented on her intelligence and that ahe was smarter than me. She says that I'm a jerk for not watching movies I enjoy with her. So I agreed and we watched Memento today. I think her head almost exploded from bot asking questions. I saw her on Wikipedia reading the plot. AITA for intentionally not watching complicated movies with my wife?

AITA for leaving my 5 year old daughter at home and just taking my son to the cinema?

Daughter is 5 and can be difficult a lot of the time. This could be keeping her sister awake at night, bursting in our room at night, waking up the entire house, making excuses to not do things and generally not listening. Today I planned to take her and my son to the cinema. It was time to eat breakfast and I told her that if she doesn't finish her food on time, she's not coming. Then comes all the typical acting like a baby stuff. Saying she wants the big bowl, saying she wants a big spoon, not eating, throwing her spoon on the floor and more. I've already told her that she needs to start behaving before she gets gifts etc. Repeatedly told her that we were going to leave her if she didn't finish. Long story short, I left her home with her mum (who was staying home anyway). She was hysterical, desperately trying to get ready by putting her shoes on but not eating her food. Wife was saying I was taking it too far but I wasn't going to give in. Part of me justifies it as my son had a similar attitude (albeit he was a bit younger). That significantly improved once he realised there was consequences for bad behaviour and I strongly believe that is what has shaped him into a largely respectful boy.

AITA for not bringing up that my roommate may have walked in on me filming NSFW content?

I (21F) make a little solo NSFW content on the side. Nothing extreme, and I’m careful to do it when my roommate (22F) is out usually when she’s at work or with friends. We’ve always had a good relationship, and I’ve never done anything like this in shared spaces or when she’s around. The other night, I thought she was out and started filming something in my room. My door was mostly closed, and I had some music playing, but at one point I think I heard the front door open. I froze, turned the camera off, and waited. I checked a minute later and saw her stuff by the door, so I’m pretty sure she came in and may have passed my room while I was filming. She hasn’t said anything about it and I’m not 100% sure she did hear or see anything but since then she’s been acting super polite and kind of overly friendly. It’s subtle, but it’s not how she normally is, and it’s throwing me off. I’m wondering if she maybe realized what I was doing and is just being awkward about it. Now I’m stuck wondering if I should bring it up to clear the air, in case she’s uncomfortable but doesn’t know how to say anything. Or should I just let it go and act like nothing happened, since maybe she didn’t notice anything and I’d just make things weird by saying something? I’m not trying to make the living situation uncomfortable, but I also don’t want to ignore something if she is feeling weird about it.

Man Takes His Heartbroken Brother To See The Barbie Movie - And His Girlfriend Walks Out

I'm really confused about this whole situation. I (26m) have a younger brother (20m) who I'm really close with. He has really wanted to see the Barbie movie. He's been sad lately after breaking up with his boyfriend, so I offered to take to him to see the movie with me and I even offered to wear pink with him and dress up. He seemed really excited about and we went last night. He had a really good time and we took a picture. I was showing my girlfriend and she started saying how I embarrassed her by doing that and if people who know my brother see the picture they're going to think we're dating and some other stuff and she left the house. Now she's not talking to me. I'm really confused. I was just trying to do something nice for my brother but this is making me wonder if I did something wrong.

AITA for thinking my younger brother is secretly filming me and invading my privacy?

I (20F) feel like I’m losing my mind over this and I don’t know if I’m being paranoid or if my brother (16M) is actually crossing the line. A few weeks ago, I thought I was home alone. I was in my room, door closed, and being intimate with myself not exactly quiet about it. Suddenly, my door opened slightly and I saw a phone camera slowly peek in. I shouted “what the hell are you doing?” and my brother panicked and said he was just “checking if I was in.” I checked his camera roll later but didn’t find anything, so I convinced myself I must have been wrong or overreacting. But then the other night I was watching a movie in bed, just wearing a crop top and underwear. My brother asked to watch too, and I said fine, but told him he couldn’t get under the covers. I fell asleep expecting he’d leave. Instead, I woke up the next morning with the covers pulled off me (which doesn’t happen when I sleep alone) and he was standing at the foot of my bed with his phone pointed at me. I stirred and he ran out of the room. This makes him look really guilty. But here’s the problem: we’ve always been extremely close, and I’m terrified of accusing him of something awful if I’m wrong. At the same time, I feel unsafe and like my privacy is being completely disrespected. Would I be the asshole if I confronted him or told our parents or even just informed the police?

AITA for expecting a guy who invites me to his house for a movie date at dinner time to offer drinks or food?

I’ve known this guy for a couple years and we’ve worked together occasionally. We’ve had a couple dates before. We split the bill without any discussion or issue. He Snapchats me one day to come over to his place that night and watch a movie he has. I say sure. I forget the rest of the snapchats, but at some point I replied “pizza and a movie” and he replied “yeah see you soon!” It was just an innocent phrase but I didn’t eat that day and assumed we’d get food together. I show up and he has the movie. I say “so are we getting food?” He says “I already ate. But I’m sure you have apps on your phone if you want something.” Then he leaves to go to the bathroom. I sit there awkwardly. This guy previously talked about being a men’s rights guy. A normal one, not an incel dickhead. He also mentioned he’s low on cash. But isn’t it just good manners to offer guests in your house food or some shit? If he was too broke I’d obviously be happy to get him something, but that wasn’t the vibe I got since he bragged about a new game he bought. He returns and turns on the TV and turns off all the lights. Then he goes into the kitchen, which I assume is to get alcohol. I call out casually “what do you got to drink?” He calls back “Do you like tap water?” This is not some red pill bullshit. I know this guy, he’s serious. There’s nothing in his fridge but muscle milk, water, and kale. I call out, “Yeah, sure.” He brings me back a glass of tap water. He winks at me. I’m starving. I haven’t eaten since 8am. I say “Hey, I don’t wanna be weird, but I thought we were getting pizza.” He says in a sympathetic tone, “Oh. I see. You must have been confused. YOU mentioned the food, not me. I should have cleared that up, I ate earlier. Sorry if that wasn’t clear. We can still get a pizza if you want. Just pick anywhere nearby and order it.” This is still kind of shitty to me, but I ignore it and order one large pizza. I eat two slices of it. The rest of it sits there the entire movie. He doesn’t offer to contribute the $6 it would cost to split it. He tries to make out with me during the movie. I stop him and feel too weird to be into it. After the movie, I decide it would be better just to talk about it rather than feel bad. I tell him my feelings about how he’s weird with money and I’m uncomfortable. He feels bad and gives me $6 right away and thanks me for speaking up. There was no bad intention at all. No red pill, no plan, nothing. Just a dude who didn’t think my pizza was his responsibility. Then he asks me to have sex with him. I decline. Knowing we still have to work together, I manage to tiptoe out the door. I don’t expect or need people to buy me things, but I think offering houseguests food when you invite them over at dinner time is a sign of good manners. (And then they can offer to split the tab) AITA?

AITA for telling my girlfriend to just let me watch a movie?

You know that thing where you come home a d tell each other about your day? My girlfriend has this habit of only doing it when I'm trying to pay attention to something else. I come home, she doesn't talk about anything. We do the chores that need doing, I try to start conversation while doing them and she barely responds. We make dinner together in complete silence, if I try to initiate conversation she just gives me one word answers or huh huhs. Again she says nothing about her day. We sit down and have dinner and eat I'm complete silence. Again, she barely responds when I try to start a conversation. Then after dinner we sit down to relax a bit, I wait to see if she wants to talk about anything but she's just scrolling through her phone. So then I start watching a movie or a show and THEN, as soon as it starts, suddenly she starts telling me all about her day. I'm the kind of person who doesn't put on a movie just for background noise, if I'm watching a movie then I am watching it, that's it. I'm trying to pay attention to the movie and she's rambling on about what happened at work, what she needs from the supermarket, what her dad said on the phone, what she needs to do tomorrow, what happened with her sister and on and on and on. And then she gets mad when I only give her one word replies like she gives me. I've asked her before why she doesn't talk during dinner but she just got angry and never explained. So yesterday we start watching a movie, and like usual she starts talking and not paying any attention, and then she starts complaining that the movie doesn't make any sense and she's not understanding the story. I told her it would make sense if she was paying attention and she got mad and said that I only care about movies and don't care about what she has to say. I tried again to tell her that I always try to start conversations with her but she never engages, and only starts talking after I've already started doing something else. She said I never talk about anything interesting, so I told her her work stories aren't interesting either. Now she's mad and giving me the silent treatment. TLDR : AITA for telling my girlfriend to let me watch a movie instead of talking through it?

AITA for getting annoyed at a couple for bringing their mentally handicap son to the movie Halloween, in which he yelled and got up every five minute, the WHOLE movie?

This couple decided to bring their son, I assume was around the age of 10 to the movies. They sat five seats down from me. I noticed during the previews a howling noise, in which I turned and saw the couple and their son, who I assume was mentally handicap by his behavior. Every five minutes, he would get up and leave the theater. When he came back, he would blurt our something loud enough for everybody to hear. This went on the ENTIRE film. It’s not the child’s fault, but parents should show some consideration for everybody is.

AITA for not giving my seat at the cinema to a child?

I (25F) am a big fan of the UK girl group Little Mix. They have a lot of younger fans, but I've been a fan of theirs since 2011, when I was 14, and they've been basically my main obsession in my teens. Tonight is their final concert before they're going on a hiatus, so their concert is being live streamed in cinemas. I was also a nanny for a little girl for 6 years. The girl is now 10. Let's call her April. My obsession with Little Mix has sort of rubbed off on her while I was her nanny. When Little Mix announced a few weeks ago they were going to show the concert in cinemas, I called her mum and offered to take the girl to the cinema. She loved the idea and I bought tickets literally as soon as they were available. Earlier today, April's mum asked me again about the details (time, which cinema, our seats) and after I gave her all the information, she asked me if there's another seat available next to us. I checked but unfortunately, there were only 2 individual seats at the very front, so she said it's fine. However, a couple hours later, she texted me to say that a friend of hers is going to check at the cinema to buy a ticket for her daughter, who's also roughly 10, so she can sit by herself but still come with us. I wasn't particularly keen on the idea because I wanted to just take April, sort of as a thing to do for fun together, not me babysitting her. Obviously she needs supervision, but I know what she's like, I know I don't need to worry about her running off etc. I don't know anything about the other 10 year old. However, I didn't say anything. Then I got a call that the cinema told them that they are not happy to let a 10 year old sit by herself and they offered to have the 2 girls sit in the seats I had booked, and for me to sit at the front. I tried to be polite about it, but I told them that I don't want to do that. I booked the tickets over 3 weeks ago, I got us good seats, and also I pay more because I pay the adult price and the kids obviously are cheaper. April's mum thought this was reasonable and didn't press me any further, but the other mother called me childish because Little Mix is for kids anyway, so I don't need to be watching their concert and that it would mean more to her daughter. The daughter was upset and I suggested she watches it at home (you can still buy livestreaming tickets to watch at home), but it didn't matter to them. I feel bad that the girl is upset and get it's more about the experience than simply watching it. That's why I paid for cinema tickets after all. But I've been looking forward to this and would have frankly gone alone, but thought it'd be nice for April as well. AITA for not giving up my seat so April and the other girl can sit together? EDIT: Thank you all for your upvotes and comments, I've never had a post with this much interaction before on this subreddit! I took April to see the concert, just the two of us, and I'd like to say we both really enjoyed it. I know I did, and April at least said she did too! April's mum picked us up from the cinema, and the whole family was at the other mum's house, so I came along as well for a little bit. The other mum surprisingly apologised to me. They'd had a BBQ instead and the other girl wasn't upset anymore. She offered to drive me home, which I declined, but I accepted her offer to drop me at the nearest bus stop. Little Mix put on an amazing show with lots of tears on their end as well as mine 😂

AITAH- Got a family kicked from R rated film because the kid was disturbing

I (30 guy) and my sister (31 lady) went to see Joker: Folie à Deux. She was really looking forwards to it, and I enjoyed the first film, so I tagged along so she wouldn't be alone. We get seated, my service dog settles in, and everything's hunky dory. As the lights go down, a family with two minors, the youngest probably 8-11 years old, sit directly in front of us in a mostly empty viewing. That's fine, I guess, but why are you bringing your young kids to an R rated film? Not my biz tbh. The movie starts playing, and there's a lot of things my sister and I relate with, and the film is honestly really great. I notice a light, and see the youngest girl recording the screen on her phone. Ok, it is a pretty musical number, I get that. Next, she's laughing during the police brutality scene, and then the first sex scene. My sister asks me to go with her to the bathroom. She says she's really uncomfortable. While she's in the bathroom, I tell staff about the screen recording, and they go and remove the family from the viewing. My sister returns from the restroom, and she urges me to go home, and I agree. Knowing now that we were leaving too, I feel kinda like a jackass, but idk, that kid shouldn't of been behaving like that or really in there, in the first place.

AITA for putting my hand over my SIL’s camera at my own birthday dinner after I told her no filming?

I (29F) had a small bd dinner last weekend with my husband (31M), SIL “Lina” (27F), MIL and two friends at a normal but nice place. Lina’s an 'influencer". She films literally everything - plates, forks, ppl breathing. Three days before, I wrote in the family chat - please don’t film me. Food, room is fine, just not my face. She said “got u”. We sit down and within like 10 mins her phone is up. I say quiet, “pls don’t point it at me.” She goes, “you look great, it’s just vibes.” Husband backs me, “she said no.” Lina rolls her eyes, lowers it… for maybe 2 minutes. Then the cake comes (little sparkler, staff singing). Lina stands and points the camera right in my face like, “birthday girl reveal!” I put my hand over the lens and said, “stop” I didn’t grab the phone or touch her, just covered the camera for a second. She snaps that I “ruined her shot” and this is her job. MIL says to “let it go for one night.” I said that it’s my night - actually. It got awkward fast. Server was right there, I felt embarassed. Husband tried to change the subject, but Lina kept muttering about how she had to scrap “everything.” I even paid for my own dessert (long story) and we left pretty quick. Next morning Lina texts that I “humiliated” her and made her look unprofessional in front of everyone. MIL says I should’ve moved seats if I didn’t want to be in frame. Husband says my boundary is fair but maybe I “made a scene” by doing it during the song when eyes were already on me. She’s posted me before without asking and co-workers mentioned it. I’ve asked her to blur/remove and it turns into drama, which is why I set the boundary in writing before dinner.

I (27F) was called a “blue-haired liberal” by my boyfriend for refusing to continue watching a movie with themes of sexual violence

My boyfriend (28M) and I were watching the movie “28 Days Later” so we could catch up on the series before the newest movie in the franchise comes out next month. In this movie there’s a viral infection that wipes out most people on the planet, turning them into zombies. The story follows a few survivors and their quest to find permanent safety. About halfway through the movie 3 survivors (1 male — a young adult man, 2 female — one being a young adult woman and the other a teenager) make their way to a soldier-run fort that was advertised over a weak radio signal as a haven for any survivors. Once they arrive a few soldiers make weird comments about “restarting civilization”, and a few days later another soldier tries to force himself on the young adult woman — which is when the young adult man intervenes and the colonel explains to him that he promised his soldiers women to stop them from killing themselves due to “no premise of a future for society”, I.e. nobody to have babies. Immediately after, the man is locked up for trying to protect the two women and another solider says he will “take the black one I.e. the young adult woman and make her squeal”. Now at this point I’m uncomfortable and ask my boyfriend to turn the movie off. He refused at first, arguing that 1) rape themes are common in lots of movies 2) lots of people have watched this movie since it came out in 2003, in my opinion as an attempt to “normalize” it, and 3) the rape themes highlight the crazy things people do in crazy situations such as this. He believes that there’s nothing wrong with these themes in movies because things like this happen in real life. I personally don’t care if the themes are “normal” or not they make me uncomfortable and I don’t want to spend my free time watching it. I told him that it creeps me out that he’s content with it and trying to pressure me into being okay with it too. He took that personally and called me too sensitive, a “blue-haired liberal” and a bitch after he stormed off. AITAH?

AITA for not letting someone sit in the empty movie theater seat I paid for?

I preordered 3 tickets (me, my son and my husband) over a week ago to see Wicked yesterday evening. My husband ended up having to work over at work so he couldn’t make it to the movie. I couldn’t cancel his without it canceling all of our tickets and the theater was completely full so I just kept all 3. Because my husband didn’t come I just used the extra seat I paid for to hold my bag and our coats. A few minutes after the movie started some lady from the very front went to stand on the stairs and kept looking around. When her eyes landed on the seat next to me she came over and I just knew what was about to happen. She asked to sit there because she was stuck in the front row. I told her that’s my husband’s seat to avoid any confrontation. She left and I thought that would be that. But about half an hour later she appeared again and said I should let her sit in that seat since my husband clearly isn’t here. I told her no, I paid for it. She was upset and wouldn’t leave it alone. People around us kept shushing her and I just ignored her. She called be a bitch and went back to her seat. Am I the asshole? I paid for it so I feel like it’s still our seat and I kinda liked having a place for our belongings to sit in instead of piled on top of us.
