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.

I'm really unhappy about my flatmate - he's such a drunk. I drink too but he's off the scale, he's very, very posh and I hate to say it but that pisses me off too. His uncle has no frame of reference other than Eton or Harrow and has an insane cat. So my flatmate and I borrowed the posh uncle's cottage in the arse end of nowhere, I know I should be grateful for a free holiday but it really is a hovel. I was lying in bed in the cottage last night when the uncle tried to have sex with me, I'm not a homosexual but he just wouldn't believe me. He's an overweight gentleman and was wearing make up - I suspect my flatmate told him I fancied him in exchange for use of the cottage.

Yes! Greatest showman! 👍🏻

I rescued my two daughters from my ex-wife who was about to sell them, and I took them up to an old house I had inherited from an aunt. The house is attached to the rocks with stays in this cold and isolated place. I have to take a boat to town. Am I being unreasonable to think I can find a reporters job and make a go of bringing up my girls here?

AIBU

DH is an academic and has invited a grad student to stay for the summer. That's an AIBU all on its own, especially as DS has to give up his bedroom. But on top of that, this latest grad student is spending an awful lot of time with DS17, who is pretty naive and innocent really. At first they didn't seem to like each other much and they're always going off for walks and swims together. Last night I think I heard them play-fighting in the bedroom and today I found a squished up peach on the bedside table.

AIBU to think this grad student might have designs on my young son, AND to insist he stops eating fruit in bed?

thighofrelief · 09/10/2018 23:59

I haven't been feeling well lately, it's so hard to sleep that I have taken to working at night. I have started to fancy this pretty blonde woman who works as a political volunteer and she agreed to come for coffee with me. To impress her I ordered apple pie with a slice of cheese on top with my coffee. Do you think she'll think that's fancy? I've started talking to myself in the mirror and saying "you talking to me?". Do you think I should see my GP?

Pickle - yes Withnail

IamPickleRick · 10/10/2018 00:01

I am totally in love with this girl, she’s much younger than me and from a different world. I made a big gesture thinking that it would make her love me, but she got all pissed off and wanted her baby brother back ffs. She’s not an ordinary girl who takes care of screaming babies, she’s my queen. I moved the stars for that bitch and this is how she repays me.

Anyway shit went down and I got my friend to stalk her and spike her peach and now she’s coming after me with a band of rogues. WIBU to turn the stairs upside down?

AngeloMysterioso · 10/10/2018 00:01

My Dad and Stepmonster have gone out on the razz again, leaving me to babysit my baby brother who won’t stop screaming. I’m feeling very used and hard done by and pissed off. AIBU to pretend that I want this fucking sex god who has a crush on me to kidnap said baby bro, even though I didn’t really mean it? To get him back I’ll have to go to his house, and getting through his back garden is a bit of a mare, plus I’ll probably bump into some unsavoury types.

AngeloMysterioso · 10/10/2018 00:02

OMG Pickle are you talking about me?!

Urbanbeetler · 10/10/2018 00:02

Thigh relief - Taxi Driver?

@willstarttomorrow Gods Own Country?

Think you'll probably get mine too...

IamPickleRick · 10/10/2018 00:03

AngeloMysterioso, you... you think I’m a sex god? Just say it once and I’ll call off the cleaners ❤️

AngeloMysterioso · 10/10/2018 00:11

Well put it this way Pickle... I’m intrigued to see if that bulge in your breeches is just an oversized cod piece... Wink

But I want my brother back. You have no power over me.
