Charging your oldest son $750/mo, for four years while he is in college? And not impose the same on the other kids?? How can he get a leg up in life like that??? OP's parents are incredibly lopsided in their "lessons"! Him getting a job showed how responsible and driven he was and in response they punished him for it. If they were trying to teach him to be independent, that life isn’t fair, and that the only person he can trust is himself then congrats on them because they’ve succeeded and they can reap what they’ve sowed.

I have heard it put this way, The eldest child is the burnt waffle. The parents tried to do something they thought was a good idea and realized how it affected the eldest. They then changed it, often softening their approach, for the younger siblings benefit. This often leaves the oldest bitter at the injustice.

That’s what I must’ve missed. I couldn’t understand why OP was so mad. But I can see if the parent charged like $100 or something to get him used to budgeting for living expenses but $750 is way too much for a college student at home, especially to expect him to share and do everything else with his siblings.

Last story: I don’t think SIL understands what’s happening here. Riley assaulted a pregnant woman trying to assault her husband for touching his jacket, banning him from your house is actually the nicest thing you could do in situation where a crime was committed. And given he’s had problems with the law before I doubt if you called the cops on him now a judge will be lenient on him. Not to mention no one gets this eager to fight over someone touching their jacket unless they have something in the jacket they don’t want people messing with. So maybe SIL except the situation without complaining before you change your mind and use your right to call the police and charges.

Something stinks at the SIL’s house, and it’s why Riley is a fucking psycho. I wouldn’t think psychopathic or sociopathic, but clearly unhinged. The parents, I believe, are a HUGE source of what is going on. Riley needs to be committed, medicated, and receive ongoing therapy. The 6yo needs therapy to process the trauma he experienced at the hands of his awful brother and neglectful parents.

It helps them get into the habit and mindset that their money will need to be split up for necessities *and* helps young people save up, sometimes enough for a deposit for a mortgage when they move out.

the contention didn't have to do with OP getting his money back or not... they were GIVING it back without him even asking for it, like the rent wasn't actually rent, but they just using that as an excuse to save it for him. I don't think it had anything to do with being treated differently from his siblings either, the whole point is that he was mad about missing out on socializing because of having to work. and I guess there is some validity to that. I never went to college, myself, but what I hear other people say is that the best thing that college really gave them didn't really have anything to do with what they learned but rather was the connections... and if you don't have any interactions with the people you're going to school with then you don't build any of those connections. however working in college is also an important aspect, you need to develop good time management to get your school work done while also still working, and also having some time to relax. I know plenty of people that go back to school while also maintaining a full-time job. my aunt did this when she realized that she couldn't advance any further at her job, my cousin was 8 years old at the time so she was juggling an 8 year old child, a full-time job, while also getting a college degree. when she died of cancer in 2012 she was a territory manager (one org-level below vice president) for Verizon having worked her way up from an entry level position as a divorced single mother. it's important to remember that OP perspective is based on his personal experience, and being inexperienced does not perceive the importance of what they did for him, nor the importance or effect of having worked through college instead of partying probably played in him actually getting this job that he's leaving home to go to. very likely if he had partied through school he would not be going to this job that he is so grateful for getting, and that is enabling him to tear up this check of his own money (facepalm!)

And obviously you would do it with all the children not just one with the flimsy excuse that they decided to get a job because their parents won’t pay for anything for them. OP most people don’t get it because to them your parents threw you a party and gave you a big check for all those years of hard work so you can have an edge when you start your new life. They don’t see the bigger picture and the money wasn’t worth what you went through. At least your grandpa has your back and was willing to understand your point of view before trying to lecture you.
Story 2: you haven’t eaten for two days, she can make herself something to eat, and you repeatably asked if she wanted to order her something. It’simpossible for you to be the a-hole in that situation, she’s not going to starve if she just can order herself something to eat or make something like she said she was going to do. I think what she wanted was for both of you to eat together but when you refuse to cook with her, she didn’t like it so she decided she’ll just eat some of your food now she’s mad because she’s hungry and you aren’t sharing. If that is the case instead of playing stupid games, she could’ve just simply said I want to eat together.

My dad is like this when we go to restaurants he says he doesnt want anything then when our food gets to the table he starts picking off everyones plate so I've adopted the habit of getting something he doesnt even like just to make sure he keeps hisbhands to himself because he had the chance to order something and you said you were good so keep your hands to yourself
5:05 it's so sad when women actually manage to find themselves a good man in the swamp that is the dating pool, and then they go and pull shit like this! Like, honey, the rest of us would kill for a guy like that! I hope OP leaves her and takes primary custody of the kids because he deserves so much better, and so do those kids.

It’s classic self sabotage. I feel so bad for the kids in this situation and how eventually, they’re going to realise what their mom did to their dad. OP seems to have grace and want to preserve what view his kids have of their mother but for how long..? I can’t imagine the emotional labour he’s had to do and will have to do in the future.
The second to last story has an update where he unblock his parents to meet at a cafe near their house. They talk (I think the parents found his first post) and the parents apologize and give OP his money which he except. He block his parents afterwards and will give the extra money to his girlfriend after talking to his grandfather that he is blocking family for good.
Oh my god, the fact OP's kids noticed their mom was treating their dad like shit! That is not a small thing, that's huge.
The way the 15 yr old reacted was very extreme. I, of all people (a guy), understand how hormones work and what we go through during puberty... but that reaction was absolutely insane. Either there was drugs in the jacket or the kid has some severe psychological problems that need serious attention by a professional. The other thing that I am really worried about is the 6yr old. I hope that 15yr old isn't taking out his frustrations on the younger kid and verbally abusing him or worse, physically. The parent needs to get the kid help like yesterday.
Shoving *anyone* the way Riley did isn’t okay, let alone a pregnant person. I don’t blame OP for not wanting him around, he’s literally a danger.
I paid rent when I graduated and planned on living with my parents during college. It was my idea, and they only charged me $100 dollars. The amount those parents charged without the expectation of doing it to the other kids is insane.
Last story: Riley got off WAAAY too easy. Were I in OP’s husband’s shoes, I’d give Riley the fight he so desperately wanted and show him what happens when you hurt my family.
Story 1 : op he’s basically giving you a reason to leave her she wants to stay here, but doesn’t want to be married take this opportunity and leave her Story 2 : she could’ve cooked the entire time op said that he was going to order out and he asked her multiple times that she wanted anything ahead of time said no and she would cook But she doesn’t and to take some of his food that doesn’t make any sense Story 3 : heard this story before I can’t believe they took away OP and entire teenage life he wasn’t able to experience anything. They bought them to pay and region amount of rent. And. Took his stuff and gave it to his siblings then they tried to say they compensating him op cut them off

This been thinking the same like oh he loves me if after starving himself he lets me eat his food. Nah girl u had multiple opportunities and she still can order or cook. Get off that high horse and stop acting like a child
2nd story: That was one of those dumb tests girls do. She thinks you failed, but she's the one who failed.
Story 2: OP's partner probably hadn't eaten since her previous meal. OP hadn't eaten for OVER A DAY after having been in the hospital. She's insensitive and selfish tbh
The only reason, and I mean the ONLY reason, that Riley did not have greater consequences placed on him, is because he was 15. (If this was 1924, Riley would have ended up regretting his decisions that day.)
(Not Sharing). OP, NTA. And one thing I've seen over and over again: "Food" issues are _"control"_ issues.
Not Sharing: no shit he doesn't want to share, I'd feel the same way if I hadn't eaten in over a day. Gf is kinda pushing boundaries here.
If my BF hadn't eaten in 24 hours, I would have greeted him with a pork chop at the door.
Story 3: OP reconnected with his parents, took his money back, and then blocked him. So there’s this win too.
First story has two more updates: Update 3 My wife went out again on Friday, this time she seemed really pensive, not excited at all. she stayed out a little longer, but came home at a reasonable hour, if I did not know what she had been up to previously, I would not have been suspicious. I assume she broke up with her boyfriend. Saturday morning she cancelled all her future dates of all kinds, everything social was off her calendar, and she replaced them with family activities with me and the kids. She still wouldn't tell me who this man was or discuss him at all. I decided to leave it alone for a while to gather my thoughts. We went on a family trip yesterday, it was fun, and today we are all going to do family games and hang out. My wife's behavior has changed very dramatically, and she is playing the caring wife, saying nice things to me, and sending me positive messages when I am in a different room, touching my arm, all the things. A fairly dramatic shift from the extreme hostility she has been showing me for months. But I have been badly burned, so I couldn't trust it. I decided that I was calm enough to figure out who this guy was... so I went looking, and with the help of a dear friend, we figured it out. See, she had purchased something from him, and that was enough information to figure out who he was, how they met, and how this all began. Now I am going to be vague, as this would maybe be identifying, and I don't need that in my life, especially if I plan on divorcing. But he followed her on a social media service and she didn't follow him back. He never once posted publicly on her social media, and she never liked or commented on any of his stuff. My wife's social media contains pictures of me and our children. almost exclusively of our children, a couple pictures of me, and only a handful of pictures of my wife. for complicated reasons, her social media has a larger following than most personal social media accounts, which made finding him a real pain in the ass. This piece of shit saw my kids and me and my wife and thought "I bet those kids would love two christmasses". that's the guy my wife cheated on me with. He is older than me, by more than a decade, but very fit, and very tall. like a fucking meme. The worst part? she had not blocked him. so it isn't over, it is just on the back burner. I have decided not to mention it, I don't want her to hide it better, I want to know what's going on as I collect evidence for filing for divorce. I don't NEED evidence, but for my own piece of mind, and so that I can grieve, I will finish constructing the puzzle that is my wife's infidelity. I will also focus on self care, and stay away from vices... I could definitely see myself getting drunk and high every night in response to this... so I should not do that. I can't file just yet, for complicated financial reasons, but I will be keeping my appointment with the divorce lawyer to explore my options. until then... we will see. I have 0 trust in my wife. I never thought I would find myself in this position. I don't know what I will do afterwards, I haven't dated in almost 15 years, how does it even work now? Thank you for all the members of the community who have reached out to me, even the mean ones. all of you have taken the time to engage with me when I could not be anything but self centered in my own grief, and I appreciate you. I will continue updating as I go. Update 4 in replies.

Update 4 I decided to take a few days and headed to my parents house. My wife watched the children while I went over and spoke with my folks, after hearing about the situation my sister joined us. my parents are hugely supportive of whatever I choose; though my mom thinks I should get a divorce and has several good divorce lawyers already picked out (she really could not hide her excitement that I might be divorcing my wife), and my father thinks we should work it out and offered to pay for any and all mental health services we need for me, the wife and the kids. My parents have been married for a very long time, and I always wanted a long, stable marriage like they had. My mother commented that I always did like "complicated relationships with difficult women" and that "your wife has been torturing you for months, everyone has been so worried about you." which feels about right. They needed a ton of landscaping done, so my sister and I spent the whole time doing landscaping and talking. the weather was finally nice and I had two days of clearing my head and being around people that love me, and getting exercise. by the time I got home I had completely forgot my horrible situation. My wife even greeted me when I got home and seemed very excited to see me. I was happy to believe for a moment that this was my life, gleeful kids and a happy wife greeting me at the door. it felt really good. I smelled terrible and was covered in dirt ( I did not shower while I was over there, they only have one bar of dove soap that they share, which was how it was when I was a kid, and honestly I would just rather stay dirty) so I went to get changed in my room. the guest bedroom, where I now live, instead of in a room with my wife... and let me tell you, it ALL came flooding back. Just a deep ache and a sadness that the person upstairs was completely different a week and a half ago, and could just as easily flip right back. We are currently in a holding pattern where my wife just looks at me wondering what I will do and tries to be on her best behavior... which she is already looking exhausted by... and I try to stabilize my emotional state well enough to make it through each day without incident. Either way I have been getting a lot of attention online and in real life from potential suitors, there are a surprising number of women of all age groups who seem to really enjoy what I am about and how I look. I really did not know that there was this much interest. I am going to start scheduling dates in the next few weeks. I don't know if it is a good idea or not, I don't know if there is anything out there worth finding, but I do know that sitting around my house being sad all the time is no kind of life. oh, and my mom offered to watch my children while I went out on dates... though she doesn't approve of it, if it brings me closer to getting rid of my wife, she will help me do it... that woman is such a trip. Again, thank you everyone for your support and encouragement. my updates will likely be less frequent going forward, unless something exciting happens. Real life is rarely this complicated and interesting in real time, thank goodness for that.

Story 3 is the reason why I think it's scummy for parents to charge their kids rent, especially while they're still in school. So long as they are contributing to the greater household, i.e. cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping, something, they should get to live in the house rent free. The kids didn't decide to exist and be born in that family. That was the parents' choice, so they have a responsibility of care.
The final story Riley's parents should be glad OP did not call the police for almost killing OP.
Story 1: op your wife is controlling and a cheater close the marriage and divorce her not just for your benefit but for your kids because this isn't healthy for you all in the long run. Story 2: nta tell your gf she reaps what she sows and the only one being unfair is her for pulling this stunt on you after what you've gone through. Story 3: nta this is a crystal clear case of golden child syndrome they expect you to work hard, pay rent and share your stuff yet said they don't even want your sister to get a job, good luck and hope you enjoy your life now you're free of your parents.
Considering RSLASH didn't finish the favoritism story it goes on in updates that he unblocked his parents met back up with them accepted the check cashed the check and then immediately blocked them again. And they still don't think they did anything wrong.
It makes me feel weird knowing that the girlfriend didn’t have food ready or order food for her boyfriend when he got out of a procedure. I’ve been under twice and both times my people (family the first time friends the second cause my boyfriend was long distance with me at the time) got me food as soon as I could get out. My boyfriend had surgery recently and I did the same for him. I feel like if your partner hasn’t eaten in hours and had to deal with doctors all day you should at least try to make them comfortable and feed them. Her disregard just feels weird. OP said that she told him to cook and she’d cook too. Not that she was cooking for him nor did she offer to get him food. It just seems way worse than I think Rslash said.
Story 2: after 32h of not eating I'd happily scarf down my own shoes, so it just sounds hilarious when the gf says she hasn't eaten
Story 1: I get divorce is hard but OP would not be TA if he got a divorce. The fact that the wife doesn’t wanna be married anymore but wants “options” is just sad. And now that OP probably got “the upside” of their little open marriage (or she got the downside because no other man can “measure up to her husband”) she suddenly wants to make things work. And the fact her open marriage suggestion ONLY LASTED A WEEK?! What the heck changed?! She ruined her own marriage and then wanted to cry about it. Story 2: classic female mentality (no offense to all females, but come on). When a guy asks “I’m ordering something to eat, what do you want?” Just ADMIT YOU WANT SOMETHING!! Don’t steal it off your man’s plate or pull some puppy eyes for “cutesy pity”. Don’t most guys find that as a deal breaker?! (I’m female too but I’d never do this unless offered). Story 3: so basically OP had to share everything and got the short end of the stick in life….while his parents thought they were basically doing OP a favor by “teaching him how to be an adult”. That check was basically “we taught you well, so here ya go. Praise us for being good parents”. OP was right to rip up the check and tell his parents where to shove it. Love the grandpa in this too. Story 4: so the 15 year old is a demon child who has problems that the sister in law doesn’t know how to handle…and OP shouldn’t have to handle WHILE PREGNANT!!! OP was right to kick him out and say that he can never come back. What would the SIL have done/said if that shove cost OP her child? No amount of apologies or excuses would ever mend that pain

As a Canadian, I can confirm OP is from Canada, considering Op said "Provinces" instead of "State", and "Timmies" (Tim Hortons) just seals it. As with the question. Well, You can blame the American culture on this one as at the age of 18 (Since OP just graduated from high school when rent started), the child would consider an adult and leaves (or kicked out from) the house to defend on their own. However since finding a house or getting an apartment can get expansive and difficult. Some families agreed to allow their adult child to live with reduce rent to help out bills and such, for a place to stay. Though some parents can be full of themselves and become real evil about it
Speaking as someone with constant medical issues, if I ever have to fast before an appointment, I ALWAYS come home to a meal that's ready and waiting for me... Because I have a partner who loves me. If OP's girlfriend knew he was going to go over 24 hours without eating, why didn't she cook AHEAD of time, or order something for both of them?
Story 1 The marriage isn't dead but they need to put in work to rebuild it. It's not uncommon for self sabotage to happen in a long term relationship when the communication diminishes. Reddit and AITA YT loves to pretend that if the relationship isn't perfect 100% of the time you need to divorce. Humans are imperfect and so are marriages. Btw. 15 year relationship and 8 years married.
Second story: NTA. Is it a requirement of all girlfriends? That all guys must "share" their food? Do they have food taxes? She had several chances of getting something and she ignored every single one. She indeed tried to steal OP's food, worse is doing it while OP is literally starving.
I'm the oldest child in my family. I'm 33. My brother is 29. And my sister is 26. I wasnt able to take behind the wheel due to money and didnt get my license til 19. My bro and sis were able to take behind the wheel. I only got my 1st car cause i was in an accident that nearly paralyzed me, thanks to the settlement. My bro and sis were given my parents car. I paid my own car insurance. Bro and sis dont. My bro and sis were always given way more attention than me and now im super independent and dont tell my parents anything or ask for help. All 3 of us were bullied in school. I had to stick ot out. My sis was moved to a private school and my bro was allowed to drop out and get his ged. Ive had a job since i was 18. My brother only got a job a year ago. My sister got one when she was 23. When i was younger, i was the one that got blamed for stuff and spanked for it, even if i didnt do it. Im now the one taking care of my parents in their old age. My dad has dementia and my mom has really fragile bones. Im the only one of my siblings stable enough to take care of them. Being the oldest sucks ass.
Story 4: Yeah, Riley is super messed up, like the probability of jail being his future is pretty high if he's picking fights, making everyone miserable, and even shoving people into something dangerous. Yeah he was messed up with drug and alcohol issues (Wait, how did he get his hands on them?), but come on, at least TRY to calm down
Dont ever just assume you can take things off of people's plates. Insanely rude. I put the amount of food on my plate that i wanted.
Story 3: The parents may have well said “Here you go! All that hard work, effort, and loss of your college years was for nothing! Surprise!!” What wastes of space.

I'm glad OP in the third story didn't take the check, because if they had it would have basicly told the parents that everything they did was ok, that it was ok that they basically stole OPs life for 4+ years, and basically cleared their "guilty" conscience with out actually fixing or truly making up for anything they did. I hope the grandpa went over and tore them a new one and demanded all the money that he gave to OP back. Good on you OP for standing up for yourself and not letting them get away with stealing your life.
Last story: So, Riley has severe trust issues and may or may not have some sort of borderline-like disorder. I wonder what he’s going through at home that he apparently can’t trust anyone even so much as someone moving his jacket…
As a 14yo - the last story is nuts, like why would you do that, even if I were upset, the most I'd do is explain my feelings and leave the room, not start a fight, shove a woman to the point of bleeding to fight her husband
Story 2: She proved herself to be a terrible partner before he even got home. Under those conditions, a good partner would say, "Text me what you want to eat and when you expect to arrive. I've got you covered." She not only didn't support him, she made the situation much more difficult, with an even longer wait time before eating, and then tried to take from him something that was - by that point - medically necessary. Sorry to sound extreme, but that entire meal situation is break-up worthy.
Before I got my own place, my mom told me that I wouldn't have to pay rent for a couple of months before I moved and use the money to save up to buy stuff for my flat and she also bought me a few things to help me.
Story 2: I hate that it took OP to have starved for 30+ hours before this behavior is considered “rude.” 🙄
Story 1: This is an extremely toxic dynamic for the kids to grow up around. Divorce stat. Story 3: parents shouldn't charge their kids rent. They should teach them how to save and budget money, especially in this financial climate. Your kid didn't ask to be born, taking their money isn't teaching them the value of a dollar

She isn’t lying to op
I have had the test before that I was required to not eat for 24 hours and I fainted in the clinic hallway and hit my head on a wall when I fell. I was a bit grumpy when I woke up and pretty much gave the nurses the silent treatment. I know they were doing their job but I was an angry teenager who felt like punishing them for what they put me through. At home I locked myself in a room with my food and loud music so as to not hear anyone; people, cats and or dogs begging for any until I was done eating everything.
Story 4 nta that kid has issues.
I’ve recently recommended that parents secretly keep rent money from children living at home to gift as a future deposit, it teaches financial responsibility and protects the money from frivolous spending
Op should’ve cashed that check . Also rent idea is actually a good idea , as it teaches kids to pay rent before leaving . However it only works if the amount of rent isn’t insane and if you give them the rent money back once they graduate . The issue though is the fact they did this while op was in school and didn’t do the same to the sister .
The thieving parents story reminded me of my situation. I tried so hard to save up and move out while working and going to school. I worked 3 jobs at the same time to went to school during my early 20's. My mom kept threatening to raise the rent and every time I snapped back that I'll move out, she wouldn't do it. I'm so glad I don't live with her anymore

Story 1, open relationship or not, she will get on OP's case if he saw other women. It's how these cheaters work. They're the only ones allowed to cheat while their "partner" is not allowed to so much as even LOOK at another partner. This relationship is beyond dead at this point. Plus the wife made her cheating about as obvious as it could get. She may as well had come back home with a big neon sign on her head that screamed "I cheated~! Aren't you proud of me~?". They need to separate. OP for his own mental health., the wife because she doesn't deserve him and the kids because they need a more stable situation than what they're dealing with now. Story 2, this girl is petty. Like a really petty child. OP came from surgery And had not eating for over one and a half DAYS. Of course OP would be tired and not wishing to cook. NO ONE would! The last thing you need to do is handle a hot stove or oven while tired. Accidents WILL happen. OP offered to order her something but, because she wasn't getting HER way, she said no. Sorry OP isn't a robot, lady. She decided to punish OP by trying to take the food he ordered from him. It wasn't sharing, it was her punishing him for not bowing to her whims. If things were the other way around she'd be expecting him to have a full buffet ready for her when she got home. If he did so much at home why couldn't she do ONE meal for someone she is in a relationship with. Story 3, the immediate sharing of OP's PS4 angers me. They could have put some money towards it so it could be more "shared". Pushing your child to get a job when they can so they learn the value of working for the things you want in life is a great thing as is the holding onto the money that the child was paying to give back. But this, this is terrible. The sister doesn't need to pay, she wasn't told to get a job and forced to pay this rent. Looks like a double standard is going on here. Story 4, the SIL is lucky OP and her husband didn't call the police for assault! Riley needs help here. The fact Riley got mad because his jacket was moved means that he probably had something in there he shouldn't have had. Then had his "pride" hurt when he was ushered away like a child only to hurt OP by shoving her into a wall which was unnecessary. Riley made a conscious decision to hurt a family member for no reason just so he could go and fight with his uncle. Guy's lucky his uncle didn't lay him out as he would have deserved. There's some major issues in that household and that six year old is in for a rough time. There are many ways this could have come up, maybe the family isn't as happy as it seems and Riley's dealing with something from his mother or father. Maybe it's the little brother having more attention so he's acting out. Could even be a bad crowd he's running around with and now he's in pretty deep. It's only speculation but either way, this kid needs his head straightened out before his life is permanently ruined.
If your partner isn't trying to GIVE you food after you haven't eaten for that long, that's not a person you'll want to marry. So why continue dating them?

Story 2: In my family several family members get hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and when it happens we get grouchy. Do not play games with us when we are in that state. My father and I are usually the two most laid back family members but when our blood sugar drops we get mean and short tempered. When the “You aren’t you when you’re hungry” Snickers commercials came out everyone, the hypoglycemics and non all went “that’s you/me!” Whenever we have to fast we have to fight being AHs and my father has outright started to refuse medical tests that require he fasts, which is not helpful. So OP is NTA because it SUCKS having to fast and then having someone play games like his gf did. He knew how much he wanted to eat and he ordered that amount, not only did he do that but he offered her MULTIPLE TIMES to get her something two. No mean no.
University is a time where people will properly discover life for themselves - the parents stole a time that a person will never get back. Awful.
6:40 I was in that situation and man you become violent if somebody tries to take your food, not that somebody tried, but you devour it like it's going to create legs.

Just presenting a check is not helpful and having your kid struggle is even worse. There is hard work and there is struggle to the point OP felt alone and unwanted. I hope OP finds peace and forgives his parents. Forgiveness is not because they are right but because he doesn’t need that negative baggage in his life.

He met up with the parents, got another check, waited for the check to clear, and then he blocked them. 😂
Story 1: Seems like something's going on with OP's wife beyond the usual "I want to cheat on you because I'm selfish." Not saying their marriage isn't still totally screwed, but... it feels different. Maybe it's just the way OP relayed the story. Supposedly no one has actually slept with anyone else yet, so there's a slim chance it can be salvaged, but... who knows. It'll never be the same again, that's for sure. Either way, obviously OP is in the clear. Story 2: I wouldn't want to cook after going over a day without food either. If someone tried to take my food at that point, they'd probably lose a hand. OP NTA at all.
Story 2: "Yes" is "Yes" and "No" is "No"
The food story... Have you never met a woman before? It's one of the biggest cliches ever, that women say they don't want anything and then want to when the food comes. If they ever say "don't order anything for me" just order something anyway and put it in the fridge, if for some reason she actually meant what she said.
Story 2: my instinct is that gf was upset that you seemed not to want to eat HER food/food that she cooked, and since you continued to go with the takeaway, your “punishment” is having to share it. It’s petty, but maybe she is really insecure? I understand wanting to order out when you’re super hungry - it’s faster and more consistent. Her insistence on you eating food she cooks, then trying to get you involved in cooking, THEN tripling down on you both having to have the same food/you must share your food…yeah. Unless she was secretly trying to poison you or something under the guise of “home cooking”, gf seems petty and insecure.

Story 2: For me it seems, she wanted to have a nice meal together. His appointment was 4 hours late, so she probable also had to wait 4 hours, so maybe she also skipped a meal. Now he comes home and ruins her plans for a nice evening cooking together. Thats why she is also indecisive about what to do. I think she wanted to do something nice for him and he gave her the cold shoulder and hurt her feelings. I dont think its a red flag, they just need to talk it out. (And no, he was not the A-hole. He was just hungry.)
The reverse rslash: When you're getting ready to call op a butthole but then rslash hits you with a an opening opinion that completely changes your mind
Riley should have learned a lesson that night. Maybe he "tripped down the stairs"
Story 2: nobody who hasn't eaten in over a day deserves to be called selfish, I did the same thing when I had surgery and I wasn't able to eat for 40 hour, so I was famished, and the first thing I did was go to the 24 burger King and got two whoppers to stop my stomach from cramping to me not consuming any calories
I did the math for the rent story, 750 a month for 48 months is 36000 dollars, those parents took over 30k from him for what? To help him save up? Glad the grandfather (?) was kind of enough to help him out.
Story 1: This dude does _everything_ for this woman, to the point she 100% does _not_ respect him. This won't end well and she's 400% lying. The dude deserves more than this woman. Story 2: I was in a similar situation. Do you know what my husband did for me? He took me to have whatever I wanted and then sat in the restaurant while I kept falling asleep mid-bite. There's nothing wrong with asking for a bite but she doesn't get to just "share" the first meal this poor guy got after 32 hours of NO FOOD!
OP ordering his own food and not sharing is completely acceptable. He asked his GF multiple times if she wanted anything. That’s a red flag as big as a house waving frantically! Get your own food for crying out loud! 🤦♀️ I wager she was testing him. Infantile behaviour. I’ve been happily married for 27 years. No, I don’t share with my husband. I’m still a bit bitter about this sharing a bedroom, closet and bathroom all of a sudden. We laugh about it, our kids think it’s hilarious that we’ve always had a second bedroom that is a mirror image of the Master bedroom for when I need my space. When they were younger, I would hear them telling their friends ‘this is my parents room, this is the guest room and this is mum’s room when she doesn’t want to share!’! 😳😂😂
