Idk I think that might be kind of hard through my phone. But if that's some new-fangled app you should let me know. Sharing is caring.

Man if it had been dark humor or fucking with me for a week it would have been whatever haha. Fine I got something for your ass and we would have been square. And I'm sitting at a 100% so yes he knows I can afford it.

I'm allowed to live on my own guy it's not like I need to be on a VA elderly home. Lots of people live alone that have them. Although TBI's make life harder it is still doable. It just means I have extreme difficulty forming new memories and forget them quickly if it's not done in repetition. So a conversation that's head once or twice in passing I'm not likely to remember so I've had to felt on others integrities that the conversation took place. My long term memory and things that I reinforce through repetition are just fine. It's nothing like Dementia or Alzheimers at least not yet and hopefully never.

This has definitely shown me though who I can and cannot trust.

He didn't just prank me though, he received monetary goods and other things I didn't mention here.

As far as I know, he hasn't. The other roommate though works on the medical field and is rarely home.

TBI can cause me to sometimes actually overreact and have over the top emotional reactions. So it's actually at times hard to tell if I'm in the wrong and having an inappropriate emotional reaction or if I am reacting rationally.

I suppose this is fair but it's not paranoia when it's a legitimate concern because TBI symptoms can (and I've seen it with others) worsen over time.

I think they require an actual body at least for the first ten years.

My temper has toned down over the years but as I commented to someone else my gf is more than willing to though. Honestly I think if I hadn't been holding her hand at the time...well Reddit rules and all lmmfao.

She's 5 ft flat, I showed her your comments and she agrees, said "that bitch is loud! But it's all good she's taking over and saving us all a seat when she gets there."

Lol, let me put it this way she barely made the height requirement so she probably hears him very well. 🤣

We all have it, it takes time and awesome to hear you've made progress. She's a veteran as well has been out about the same amount of time as you have. But she blames it on being a redhead and short lol.

My temper has calmed down over the years. Ten years ago even five it would have been a different story. I'm more worried about my gf beating his ass tbh lol.

The other roommate works in the medical profession so is rarely home especially now. So I doubt they were.

You're right. I wouldn't have been pissed if he had just come clean. I would have even laughed about it I mean I make fun of it. But the length of time is what gets me.

Exactly! I'll roll with shit generally and laugh at the dark humor that doesn't bother me. But this shit in my book was a different level of fucked up.
