Welcome to R.S. Am I the Devil, where O.P. uses AI to write his wedding vows.
Our next Reddit post is from R. slash relationship advice.
I'm a 35-year-old guy, and I recently had a wedding with my partner who's 34.
We've had a stable and happy relationship so far, and I love her more than anything in the world.
The problem arose when it came to writing vows.
Don't get me wrong. I love many things about my partner, but I couldn't figure out how to put
them into tangible vows. I decided to use chat GPT so I can have something well written and expressive
to share at the ceremony. The thing about my partner is that she's very confrontational and no
nonsense. If something annoys her, she immediately addresses it with no room for backing out. I also know
that she's expressed disdain for AI in the past, but I didn't realize how far the hatred could go.
I don't know how, but she immediately recognized that the vows were AI. After I'd
finished, she had this angry look and whispered to me,
did you use effing AI to write that?
I was quiet because I couldn't believe she'd noticed that,
and she was choosing to address it while we were on full display for everyone.
She then said that I either speak from the heart or she walks out.
I literally couldn't get any words out,
and she kept her promise and walked back down the aisle,
much to all of our friends and families confusion.
She's been ghosting me these past few days, which is atypical for her and honestly giving me panic attacks.
Most people agree that calling off a marriage because of AI vows was an overreaction and that maybe it was a sign that our relationship would have issues, but a few female friends have said that they would have done the same.
I'm hurt, and honestly, I just needed it to help make the day more special.
Is it worth fixing?
I like this reply from Named Human.
I, user, have strong feelings for you, object of affection, such as love, admiration, and other feelings that express how I feel about you.
Have I mentioned that the pro subscription is on offer right now and chat GPT5 is better in most ways?
Just remember to delete that last part.
O.P., I would give you advice on how to fix that, but that would require effort on my part, and we all know how much you hate effort.
Am I the butthole for revoking my daughter's college fund?
I know it sounds bad, but please hear me out.
When my wife and I divorced, my 14-year-old daughter took my wife's side, which I was pretty upset and surprised about.
She was 12 when we separated, and we were very close, unlike her and her mother.
I didn't hold it against her because she was a kid and she didn't know any better, and I make the effort to see her.
I love spending time with my daughter.
I met my current wife four years ago.
She was pre-law and was planning on taking loans to pay for law school.
However, about two years later, we were engaged, and I didn't want her to take on.
any loans, so I offered to pay for law school. She was apprehensive, but I wanted a good start
to our marriage life and not want any loans hanging over our heads, so she agreed. Opie's daughter
is 14, and they separated two years ago when she was 12. But O.P. met his current wife four
years ago, and they were engaged two years ago, which to me indicates cheating, right? So maybe
that's why she took the daughter's side? Mystery solved? Because O.P. carefully didn't
mention the cheating? I used my daughter's college fund to pay for my wife's school and planned on
replenishing it so that my daughter would have a fund when it was her turn to go to college. I put in a
little money each month. I honestly thought that this was okay because when I asked her about college
at the time of doing this, she said that she wanted to go to makeup school and be a makeup artist and that
college sucks. Well, apparently her mindset changed because on Sunday, we met up and she was talking
about AP classes. I was surprised because I didn't think that she was interested in school. I asked
her if she was joking, but she said that she's aiming for computer science at some top private
college and that her dream is to start a startup business. She then asked me if she had a college
fund and she wanted to know if she should add on an extracurricular or get a job. I told her the
truth about her college fund and that right now there's not enough money for even a year at a private
college. She then started crying and making a scene and told me that she couldn't believe that I
chose my wife over her mom, and now I'm choosing her again over my daughter, which is not true,
since my daughter is getting a fund, just not private school tuition. She then called my wife
a bunch of awful names that I won't say here. I told her that she's probably not going to get
into a private school because she wasn't even serious about school two years ago. She called me a
terrible dad and ran away until her mom came to get her. Her mom later called me angrily about what I
said to her and said that my daughter is on track to win some prestigious science fair award, and that I was
way out of line with what I said and that I obviously don't know her. I was honestly so done with
the BS she pulled and her attitude towards my wife, which has never been good. And I said that I'm
probably going to revoke my daughter's college funds since she obviously doesn't deserve it after what
she pulled today. My daughter is now refusing to see me and calling me by my first name. I still
stand by my decision. Am I the butthole? This edit, I'm done with the rude comments about my wife.
It's, am I the butthole? Not is my wife the butthole? Not that you guys deserve any additional
information, but my wife is really great. I'll accept a butthole judgment for me cheating,
even though it's not really what I was asking about in this post,
but everyone seems to be hell bent on it.
I was a super butthole for cheating.
Happy? My wife wasn't.
When we met, I was 32 and she was 20.
We had a casual relationship,
and I didn't mean to start it,
but she was so amazing,
and had such a vibrant personality,
and I was really depressed at the time,
but she helped uplift me.
I didn't tell her that I was married,
only that I had a daughter.
And I know that's bad, but I didn't feel married to my ex-wife at that time.
I was so unhappy, and she was too.
My wife and I had an amazing relationship, and as she was going to be graduating college soon,
she wanted to get serious.
I told her the truth, and my wife was upset, but she decided to forgive me.
I proposed and introduced her to my daughter, and she hoped that we would be a family.
She was nothing but kind to my daughter.
But my daughter was hostile from the minute she met her, never gave her a chance.
My daughter and my mom would play cruel pranks on her, like organizing a date and never showing up,
ruining her wedding dress, spreading rumors about her to all my relatives, making fun of her to her face.
My wife took the high road and forgave all of that, only speaking highly of my daughter.
Even to her friends, she'll brag about how pretty and amazing my daughter is
and how she's sure my daughter will accept her when she's a bit older.
So, yes, my wife is a saint and an amazing person.
Stop dumping on her, Reddit. You got your backstory.
Let's not forget she's a homewrecker, O.P.
How good of a person can she be if she's a homewrecker?
She and, you know, you too. You both did. You both broke up a family.
Then O.P. posted another update.
So a lot of stuff went down after I posted this, or because I posted this, actually.
My wife called my daughter's mother because she felt bad about the situation and is sad about my relationship with my daughter.
She insisted on the remaining money in the account, 45K, go to my daughter in a separate fund controlled by her mother.
Her mother didn't take that well and hung up on my wife after telling her that she didn't need her charity.
My wife now won't talk to me because she feels that I put her in a bad position.
And I should have told her before that the money was my daughter's because she figured that it was.
was just extra money I had left over and not my daughter's fund. She's saying that I caused
unnecessary drama and I could have handled the situation way better and that she's trying her best
to fix what I broke, but she's exhausted. She's currently packing to go stay with her parents for
the time being, so that's that. My ex-wife is furious at me because my wife called her and she
didn't want to hear my wife's B-word voice. She blew up at me for taking everything so far and is
blaming me for ruining everyone's happiness. She says that I can't fix anything anymore and not to
even worry about my daughter's fund because she didn't raise her daughter to get on all four knees
and beg, and that she has everything figured out for her daughter now. She thanked me for
putting everything in perspective and that I'm no longer permitted to visit or contact my
daughter. She has full custody. I'm now sitting here typing all this out, figuring out ways
to contest custody, so that's what's happening in my life right now.
I just don't get how everything got all messed up when my heart was in the right place.
I don't feel wrong.
Oh, okay, O.P. doesn't feel wrong despite his wife being mad at him, his ex-wife being mad at him,
his daughter being mad at him, and all of Reddit being mad at him.
But he doesn't feel wrong, you guys.
Am I the butthole for yelling at a lady with an accessibility parking pass?
It was a rainy day, and I was taking my nine-month-old to the mall to get out of the house.
The underground parking was pretty full, but I had my eye on one free, expecting women and families with small children, spot.
As I was making my way there, another vehicle pulled into the spot before me.
Annoyed but unbothered, I continued on to find another spot, until I saw the driver.
An older woman with gray hair.
Surely she wasn't expecting, but she could have a grandchild with her.
I hung around to find out.
I waited and parked nearby until I saw the woman exit her vehicle alone.
I rolled down my window and said, not yelled.
Excuse me, you're parking in a family spot.
She yelled at me, I'm handicapped.
I have a pass.
I'm allowed to park here.
First of all, she's completely wrong.
Where I live, having an accessibility parking pass only entitles you to those specific spots.
I remind her so.
She yells back, I'm handicapped.
I can park wherever I want.
So I yelled back,
I don't care if you're dying, that spot isn't for you, and I drove away.
The mall has many accessible parking spaces,
but only very few spots for pregnant women and families with small children.
The woman could have kept driving through the lot to find another,
or gone to the outdoor parking lot to find one.
I'd rather not have to get my son set up in a stroller or get him in and out of the car in the rain,
not to mention getting one of these spots is tough every day of the week and every time of day.
Like I said, there are very few.
But this lady was solo, so I feel she should have gone outside to look for another space
or continue through the lot to hunt for another accessibility space. Am I the butthole?
O.P. says where I live having an accessibility parking pass only entitles you to one of those
specific spots. I doubt she knows that. I don't think the average person knows what exactly
those placards like entitle you to. Maybe they do also entitle you to those spaces. I personally
don't know, and I'd be surprised if OP knows that for a fact as well. Still, such a care and take.
Apparently it's unacceptable for a mom to walk in the rain, but it's totally fine for a handicapped lady
to have to go walk in the rain. You know, let's just not yell at handicapped people in general,
you know? Our next Reddit post is from R slash cat free. My boyfriend and I had a cat since August
of last year, and recently he got rid of it, and I'm so thankful he did. I've had problems with the cat
ever since it was a kitten, and I'd tried to train it for the entire time I had it before I
gave up. My boyfriend is a cat lover, so we decided to get one because he said that all of his
old cats back in his childhood home were all well-behaved and friendly. I thought when we were
getting a kitten, it would end up like that too since I've never owned a cat, and I was gravely
wrong. It always yelled at night whenever it was hungry, scratching at the door while I was trying to
sleep. I was at my wits end. I became more cranky and snappy towards my boyfriend because of the
lack of sleep and functionality and it was straining our relationship. It was awful and we had
fights over the cat because I was breaking down constantly over it. He promised to take it to the
shelter but never kept his word. And the main reason might be silly, but it was the straw that
broke the camel's back. It ate the chicken breast my dad had given me when I told him I was
feeling depressed. I never really had a relationship with my father until last year, and we had gotten
closer. The chicken was a sign that he cared about me. So imagine how I felt when I came back from
washing my hands just to see that the effing rocks for brains knocked over the KFC bucket
eating the chicken. I couldn't even think about caring for that little rat anymore. I knew it was bad
when I seriously considered killing the cat. I just imagined it would die horribly or get snatched up by a
native bird of prey so it could at least be useful for once. I had to talk to my therapist about it
to work everything out since I wasn't in a good mental state because of that thing. So after I broke
down for the final time, I made my boyfriend choose, me or the cat, and he made the right choice.
Did he, though? Look, it's fine if Opie doesn't want to have cats. Cats aren't for everyone,
but Opie really doesn't seem like a regular ray of sunshine here. I got to point out what kind of
idiot doesn't like cats and then says, oh, I'm going to get a cat.
What kind of idiot puts out unattended chicken in a room with a cat or a dog or any animal, really?
What do you expect, O.P., use your brain.
Don't call other animals rocks for brains when you've got rocks for brains.
I also checked out R slash cat free because I didn't even know that this was a subreddit,
and it's pretty much exactly what you would expect.
Here are some titles.
Cat people are cancer.
I will never understand the obsession with cats.
I hate them.
Why are cat lovers so annoying?
I got rid of my cat and I don't even feel bad.
That was our slash am I the devil.
