    Font - r/AmItheAhole u/trix892 23 hours ago Posted by AITA for refusing to delete a recording I have of my brother-in-law's wife telling me my husband was only tolerating me now because I was pregnant? Not the A-hole Before I found out I was pregnant my marriage was in a really bad place and we were essentially separated. Some of my husband's family were upset when we decided to work on things because they felt like I was ungrateful and that I had humiliated my husband and their family so he sho

    Font - My brother-in-law's wife was probably the most vocal and nasty about it but she never said a mean thing around my husband. I ended up recording her telling me that my husband only tolerated me now because I was pregnant and that he would throw me out as soon as the baby wasn't inside of me anymore. I told her if she didn't leave me alone, I would show my husband which made her stop.

    Font - That was over a year ago and she recently asked me if I still had the recording and asked me to delete it when I told her I did. I refused to, even though she's been nothing but nice to me recently, and now her and her husband are angry at me because I won't delete it and it would cause big problems if my husband saw it, especially now. AITA?

    Font - FleeshaLoo. 14 hr. ago Good advice. I email stuff like that to myself at my protonmail account. I often use it as safekeeping for docs, a picture of my license and passport, especially when traveling.

    Font - coolbeenz68. 16 hr. ago Partipant [2] yep, whos to say that shes asking about it because if its deleted then she can go after op again and try to break them up. with op having the recorded message, then she has to back down. op needs to talk to her husband, tell him everything and let him hear it after shes explained things. 126 Reply Share

    Font - ketopepito 10 hr. ago In that case, OP should make a copy of the recording, then "agree" to delete the original. If nothing changes, great. Maybe SIL actually learned her lesson. If she reverts back to her nasty ways, OP can bust out the backup recording. 31 Reply Share

    Font - xmodusterz 17 hr. ago But what's your long term plan here? Blackmailing them to be nice to you for eternity? Eventually this is going to blow up one way or another and the longer you wait the less your husband is going to be on your side. You've essentially been blackmailing your BIL's wife for over a year, you need to get out in front of this. If this goes on either they snap and tell him or he finds out somehow, both options end badly for you. Tell him. Show it to him. So you all can kn

    Font - n Lonely-Following1866. 3 hr. ago Not a chance, the BILS wife isn't going to come clean on her own, or she wouldn't want the evidence deleted. If her husband didn't take her side on this one even if it did come out later he'd not be husband material. If my partner came out with something like this I'd only be upset that they hadn't felt comfortable enough to tell me sooner so I could cut that person out of our life. 45+ Reply Share
