AITA for telling my wife I'm not quitting competitive eating?
me (36M), factory work, i compete most weekends. eleven years. my wife (35F) has asked me to stop. not angrily. she sat down and asked properly. her reasons are my blood pressure, my dad's heart, and that i had a bad one in may where i went too hard and was genuinely unwell for two days. my reasons are it's eleven years, it's most of my friends, and i'm good at it in a way i've never been good at anything. i said no. i said i'd cut down, i'd do the qualifiers and not the eating-est stuff, and i'd get the bloods done. she said cutting down is what people say. she's not wrong that it's what people say. i also genuinely meant it and i don't know how to prove that except over about two years, which is a long time to ask her to watch.
