A post called ‘AITA for looking up public records’ has left Reddit suspicious after a husband got angry at his wife for finding out why a friend was in jail.
It’s from ‘AITA’, a popular thread that stands for ‘Am I the a**hole?’ and sees people across the world asking if they were in the wrong in certain situations.
‘AITA for looking up public records’
The Reddit post begins with a 35-year-old wife explaining that she has been married to her husband Jack for nine years now and they have no kids.
Jack reconnected with his childhood best friend Denver five years ago and he’s a “really nice guy”. She’s close to his wife Cassie and they all hang out every week.
A few years ago, she asked her husband why he and Denver lost touch and he shrugged it off and said: “Oh you know, life stuff.”
She moved on and never mentioned it again, but recently discovered on a camping trip that he has spent a lot of time behind bars.
They were sitting by the fire and drinking beers on the second night when she asked him how he learned to make such nice food, and he said: “Well in prison you learn to get pretty creative.”
The woman tried to hide her surprise but obviously failed and he asked confusedly: “What you didn’t know? I mean I spent the majority of my 20s in prison.”
He then looked at Jack and said “Seriously dude you didn’t tell her?” – and Jack just shrugged.
Husband gets really angry
She assumed Jack didn’t tell her because he wanted to respect his friend’s privacy, but she was super curious so looked up his public records to find out what happened.
After the trip, her husband asked if she’d looked up the records and she said yes, to which Jack got really angry and asked why she didn’t ask Denver herself.
She was confused and said “I didn’t think you were supposed to ask stuff like that?” and he replied: “Then wouldn’t that give you a clue maybe it’s not okay to go poking your nose where it doesn’t belong?”
Jack then accused his wife of making a big deal out of it and yelled at her to “stop acting dense” even though he was the one who brought it up.
“Honestly I have no idea why he’s getting so upset over this. Sure ‘curiosity killed the cat’ but I kept it to myself. I didn’t even think to bring it up or make it a conversation,” she wrote.
Reddit says he’s a ‘red flag’
People on Reddit are in agreement that she’s definitely NTA (not the a**hole) but are more concerned about her husband’s actions, saying he’s a “red flag”.
One person wrote: “First of all… NTA. Secondly, that’s some concerning red flags your husband is throwing up there… maybe look up his record too if he has one.”
“I would have to look up your husband’s public records. There isn’t any reason why he got so upset about it and calling you dense and whatnot. Your husband is pissed for a reason, and now you need to find out why,” said another.
A third person added: “NTA – I would go check that site for your husband’s name. Maybe the reason he thinks you should not be looking into someone’s history.”
“Please update if you ever look up for husband’s records because it sounds like there’s something he’s trying to cover up from you,” someone else commented.
