You know, the ones that ask a question on the thread and you know full well the answer before you've even clicked through.

Should I leave him? - Yes. Run for the fucking hills

DH says this is all in my head, is it? - No. He's a cunt

Is this normal in a relationship? - No, definitely not. And don't let him make you think it is either

Should I text him or leave it? Leave it. But we know you won't. Come back again tomorrow when he's ignored you again

Should we separate? Without a doubt

Are these red flags? North Korea, mate.

What are yours?

Is it unreasonable to stop giving lifts to someone who expects me to go well out of my way and is never ready when I need to go?

Of course not. Just say no.

Is it unreasonable to take the house key back off my MIL/neighbour whoever after I discovered they were looking through my drawers/dirty washing?

Of course not. Just take the bloody thing.

"Why won't he propose?"
Because he has all the advantages of marriage with none of the responsibilities. He won't buy the cow if he can get the milk free.

Can I just tell you this thing with very few details because it might be outing and I don't really want any advice other than 'that's lovely, darling girl, you go right ahead and do that'?

‘Well known woman’s name.’

Unpleasant, judgmental post about named woman framed as concern.

OP AIBU for putting stepdaughter on a blow up bed in the lounge even though she lives with us 50/50. We only have three bedrooms and my DC have them.

99% of MN yes you are horrible.
1% of MN Go for it, your house, your rules. Step DD needs to fit in with your family. MN HATES step parents.

Facepalm.

Wheelchair vs buggy

If all parties are decent people it works fine (I've been on buses in a wheelchair alongside THREE buggies, you just play Tetris)

Your only purpose in starting this thread is to be a goady fucker whilst deploying wide eyed faux innocence of the :

OP Is it bad not to give my DC a bath every night.

50% MN That's grim, infact you should be having baths am and pm.

50% MN The world won't fall apart if your DC have a bath three times a week.

‘Somebody on the bus/at the supermarket was rude to my child.’
