Yes and no. You allowed him to go on his run, so punctuality wasn't going to happen and you knew it. You also had history with him.

That being said, three hours is not late; it's completely disrespectful.

Budgets are important, and it's great that you are trying to keep your long term goals. If your boyfriend wants to join you in that, then he will adjust accordingly. If not, it shouldn't change what you want to do.

No - you get to choose between zero children and as many children as you can handle.

Are there certain things that your husband asks around the house that you sometimes relax on, or even dismiss?

If you do, then you've answered your question.

Your friends said you should write a book; you did. But writing a book doesn't necessarily mean publishing a book.

You have a very tough choice. Is it worth losing your relationship with your mother, even if it's in the short term?

You should have bit your lip and said the appropriate goodbyes, but leaving early was probably the best choice.

It was your day, not theirs. It was completely inappropriate for what happened. But it happened all the same, so using decorum to your advantage would have allowed you to escape without having to explain yourself as much as you had to.

Yes and no. You were NTA intentionally but it certainly turned out that way in the end.

That guilt is something you will have to deal with for a long time, but it is best kept with you and you alone. Some things are better left unsaid!

Not sure why he thinks he deserves two days per year. Just because you live in a different country?

Based on his response, I would work out an arrangement where there is a mutual agreement where you both get similar experiences per year. If he expects two Father's Days, then you get to pick another Mother's Day so you get two per year the way you want.

Anything else is selfishness on his part.

No, you are NTA. There will never be a scenario where you would be. You get to choose your relationship with your father's new family, whether that is all-in or all-out.

NTA - simply put, no. You said something to your family under a certain layer of trust and it was abused. You have every right to be angry.

That being said, it's just property, and blood should be thicker. Try to forgive for the sake of family, but that doesn't mean you forget.

The gender reveal is another symptom of a bigger problem. I suspect the two of you argued about money many other times; this may have just been the last straw.

Communication and counseling might help. Keep an open mind on what your future holds as you have an innocent girl that will need her father no matter what happens.
