Person Wants to Know if They’re Wrong for Not Giving up Their Seat to a Pregnant Woman
by Matthew Gilligan
Oh, boy…
Here we go with another story about a dispute between a pregnant woman and someone who isn’t willing to give up a seat for her…
And it’s a doozy!
Read on to see if you think this person was totally out of line for what they did.
AITA for telling a pregnant woman to sit on the ground instead of giving her my seat?
“My nephews both graduated from high school this morning and I wanted to sit up front so I camped out a bit in front of the entrance. I brought my folding camping chair and my headphones to listen to my show.
About 40 minutes before the school would let us inside, a pregnant woman got next to me since somebody let her in line (I assume her partner). She asked me within 5 minutes (politely admittedly) if she could have my chair as she was going to have trouble standing the whole time.
I said no, sorry I need it more (bad feet/knees) and went back to my things. She asked me again within 2 minutes and the answer was the same. She however got a little mad at me and said that she was going to be struggling the whole time and asked her partner to tell me.
He asked me himself (politely) and I again responded that sorry but I need it more and suggested she could wait in their car or just sit on the ground. At this point the husband directly called me an a**hole but left me alone
AITA?”
Now let’s see what folks said about this on Reddit.
One person said they’re NTA and that this woman should have brought their own chair.
Another individual made a joke about what this woman was thinking.
And this Reddit user said they are impressed with how they handled this situation.
I can’t believe this person stayed calm!
