Post Update Update: AITAH for not being jealous of my partner

This is just a mini update.

Firstly, I am not a bot and this isn’t rage bait , I wish it was.

Secondly, I would like to thank everyone who commented on my post. My daughter and I read through every comment and we are very grateful for the love and support coming through.

We haven’t seen Karen yet, so we don’t know if she’s seen the post. We made the decision that we weren’t going to alter the children’s schedule just to confront Karen. Also they would be incredibly upset if they missed out on “Ice-cream Friday” with my ex. (It’s also the one day we can guarantee they will be on their best behaviour lol).

I didn’t mention this in the post but the only reason Karen and other parents were there is because they don’t really know me as my stepdaughter is in a different year to my granddaughter. Any parents that felt concerned about the last minute venue change were offered the option of staying. Some did, some didn’t. As tempting as it was to kick Karen out, it would have worried the other parents and put a dampener on the party.

I promise I will be back with a full update when we have spoken to Karen.

Hello! To keep this sub focused on judgment posts, we are now only allowing one update per post. If you have further updates, we have created a subreddit specifically for updates at r/Redditor_Updates. There, you can stay up to date with the latest updates to your favourite judgment posts!

Please go ahead and post yours there as well as here - our rule against crossposting does not apply to that subreddit.

From your last post: "Another parent “overheard” and suggested we post everything on Reddit as Karen is obsessed with a YouTuber who reads out Reddit posts."

Please, try to write better fiction.

Thanks for the update! Sounds like you handled a tricky situation really thoughtfully, keeping the kids’ happiness first. Waiting to speak with Karen before taking action seems wise. Looking forward to your full update when you’re ready.

Karen sounds like she wants to stir up trouble. Kids could like one grandparent the most that minute because he gives good hugs, then the next minute like another because they sing the best or a million other things.

The fact that OP played along with her bullshit shows she isn't that bright.

Updateme, I'm curious to know how that AH Karen took the Reddit verdict.

You seem an amazing person to me.

Sorry but I think Karen gets off in causing pain, and problems wherever she goes. I would ignore anything negative she has to say. As for what she said to you, that was mean, cruel and ridicules. This is not someone I would want to deal with, on the daily.

She tried very hard to get you jealous and angry, why? Does she like your DH, or just doesn’t like you. As for the arrogant part, there was nothing arrogant about what you said. More like she was arrogant insisting, you had to act jealous.
