I'll start.

AIBU to be pissed off with my recluse sister?

My sister is an introvert to the point where she won't even speak to me anymore. We live together but I literally don't see her from one day to the next and TBH I'd like a bit of company. Also it's bloody cold in our house, especially walking past DSis room, anyone got any recommendations for portable heaters? Preferably from John Lewis.

My wife and I are separated and I have flown across the country to spend Christmas with her and the kids. She did arrange a company car to pick me up at the airport, but when I got to her office I find out she's using her maiden name again! Thing is the building has just been invaded by terrorists and they don't know I'm here. WIBU to fight the terrorists, save the day, rescue my wife and expect a reconciliation? My job means I have the skills to be able to pull this off.

I’m in my 40’s but still live with my mum. She’s just got married to some doctor who has a son the same age as me and we’ve got to share a bedroom!
He’s a total arse and won’t let me touch his drum kit, I hate him.
Added to that my younger brother is a total knob head estate agent and everyone thinks he’s great.

Stepbrothers

WillowintheUK · 09/10/2018 23:35

Ok, did something I've never done before, and had a one night stand with this gorgeous American. The following week I bumped into an old flame, and we'd a night of passion.

Now I'm pregnant and I don't know which one's the father! So I told them both they were.

AIBU to let them both think they're the father? Any advice on how to pull this off?

Please bear with me here.
AIBU to be expected to move out?
We share a place together but lately the relationship hasn't been going so well. I mean he makes me laugh and stuff and we do love each other but he's just so lazy. He never does anything around the house at all, he has his friends round all the time and just leaves mess for me to clean up.
All he's bothered about is just trying to get some shitty tour business up and running with his brother and seems to neglect spending time with me. If we do spend time together he always seems to ruin it. The latest is he's trying to buy a pool table for the living room even though I have said I would rather get some nice art to display instead!
We have decided to split up but we both want the other to move out.
AIBU I'm thinking it should be him to leave?

@WillowintheUK Bridget Jones Baby! Watched the other week, surprisingly enjoyable...

JellieEllie · 09/10/2018 23:39

Well done @thighofrelief 👏🏼

WillowintheUK · 09/10/2018 23:39

Yes Poshjock and DeusEx. And you're right, it was a lot of fun.

Poshjock · 09/10/2018 23:41

I think I'm too good at my job. I've just been transferred to the sticks where there will be nothing decent for me to do. And to top it all my girlfriend dumped me.

AIBU to just devote the rest of my life to caring for my peace lilly?

thighofrelief · 09/10/2018 23:42

So anyway I think I may have made a mistake. I ditched college and decided to enlist, my parents are furious. I didn't even go to officer training, I wanted to have the authentic experience with the rest of the grunts. The weather here is terrible, so sticky and hot and I' just tired of the mosquitos and foliage beig waaaay too dense. I have however started to enjoy smoking weed and dancing to Motown with quite a lot of African Americans. The 2 sergeants in charge of us really don't get on and I think one of them is a psychopath - he has battle scars all over his face and keeps saying "I am reality"

I grew up without too much money and the woman of my dreams is born in to wealth and her family look down on me. I’ve met a man who suffers from dwarfism, WIBU to dress him up as Napoleon, put him on a horse and charge people money to watch him so that I can buy my fine lady a house and prove to her dad that I can take care of his daughter after all? There is a lady with hirsutism that is also interested so I can’t see that IABU tbh.

SerenDippyEggs · 09/10/2018 23:45

@IamPickleRick the greatest showman?

Aintnothingbutaheartache · 09/10/2018 23:46

I’m an actress in a long running well loved soap.
They want to axe the show, I’m devastated.
I live with my partner, she’s younger than me and quite simple but she does her best. I’ve a suspicion that my producer is after my partner, it’s all a conspiracy!
They are saying that I’m out of control but the incident with the nuns in the taxi was a misunderstanding.
The only thing I’m looking forward to is the fancy dress party

willstarttomorrow · 09/10/2018 23:46

I am a young man, all my life has been mapped out for me. I live on a farm in the arse end of Yorkshire. Dad is too ill to do anything so it is falling to me. I have struggled. I basically spent most nights getting pissed and getting off with men before stumbling home. Next day getting up and doing a shit job under the critical eye of mum and dad. I have developed very strong feelings for a seasonal worker, I am struggling with this. He is not from the UK, he gets me and he gets my life. The life I live is very traditional. AIBU to belive we have a future and we can be happy?
