AITA for bringing up scruples when I proposed?

u/radicaltruthTA

Throw-away because my sister knows my main

I still don't really see where I was wrong here, so I'm going to ask anonymously.

Background: I (M) am wealthy and well-connected. I don't want to get into details, but I think it's safe to say I could marry anyone I wanted.

As you can imagine, when I found myself interested in a girl with no connections, no fortune, and a really vulgar family I was fairly annoyed. I tried as hard as I could to get over it, as I felt that was my duty. But she is really great so I went for it.

I felt it was fair to explain during my proposal the reasons that I had been hesitant, you know, the expectations of my family, my station in life, the fact that her family is so embarrassing that I'm surprised she hasn't melted in pure shame (she has somehow learned better manners), and the like.

Instead of appreciating my struggle or taking it as a compliment to her many perfections, she got really, really angry and then said that I had behaved in an ungentleman-like manner and I was, "the last man in the world whom [she] could ever be prevailed on to marry" She basically called me an AH.

I don't think I did anything wrong, I was just being honest about my scruples. Was I supposed to rejoice in the inferiority of her circumstances? I thought she would be flattered! And I staunchly believe in radical honesty.

I can't talk to anyone in my family so I'm asking here. AITA?

I knew just from the username that I would be answering YTA. How did you manage to write all of that out and not see the problem?

"Radical truth telling" is just code for "I'm an AH but I pretend it's honesty"

X Inktober ~ Pattern Bojack Horseman is so senseless yet deep. I always kind of identifed myself with Princess Caroline... She tries so hard to get forward, but she always ends up in her old patterns. I hope so much that one day she breaks out of it #art #artist #artsy #artistsoninstagram #ink #inktober #inktober2019 #pattern #bojackhorseman #princesscaroline https://www.instagram.com/p/B3fE74IHKJ5/?igshid=ohcqkvxqguoq

AITA for breaking my brother up with his girlfriend?

u/PrincessCaroline

I (F20) have a friend “Jane” (F22). I thought she was a very sweet girl, but then I began to suspect that she only was hanging out with me because of my brother (M23), who is an absolute catch (handsome and rich, the full package). We invited her family over for a party and her mother kept going on and on about how Jane marrying my brother would save the whole family from being poor. It was really rude.

A mutual friend of mine “Will” (M28), told us the next day at breakfast that he didn't think Jane actually liked my brother, she was just going along with her mother's plans. I agreed and we all convinced my brother to stay away and ghost her.

Here's where I might be the asshole. I sent a very passive aggressive text suggesting that Jane move on and that my brother would never marry her. I thought it was the best thing to do, I didn't want her mooning over him and wasting her precious time (she's already 22! Not much time left before she’s an old maid). But I showed the text to my friend and she thought it was a bit over the top. AITA?

Edited to Add: I do wish Jane the very best and I like her as a friend, I just don't think she's right for my brother if she doesn't love him! And Will has this really great sister that I think would be a better match (especially financially)

I’m going to go against the grain and say NTA. People here just don’t understand what it’s like having a wealthy family member. You can never tell who is getting close to you just for a chance at your brother and it really messes with your sense of trust.

In all likelihood, she’s just a gold digger. You can’t trust anyone these days.
