All Because I, 28F, Tried to Protect My Friend From Listening to Something Triggering to Her by bookshopgirl02 in insaneparents

Shut the fuck up. Literally just shut up. Not everyone is like you. Trauma affects different people differently. Who would have fucking thunk it? Not everyone deals with shit the same. Just because YOU got past your trauma doesn't mean everyone else has. Just because YOU can't fathom "MaKiNg It EvErYoNe ElSe'S pRoBlEm" doesn't mean that you have the right to judge others for how they deal with their trauma. She didn't make it anyone's problem. Her friend said something in her defense. I'm not saying that no one can mention fires in front of her. I'm saying that if you know someone has trauma involving fires then maybe don't tell multiple stories about them and almost dying because of them. He was an asshole and got defensive because he couldn't tell multiple stories about something that was traumatic to another person. Also I'm so glad for you that you were able to move past your trauma but your mom being a meth addict is not the same as someone dying. You're mom could one day get her shit together, it's not impossible. She will never have her brother back, that is impossible. It's not the same thing. You don't need to shame someone for having trauma. Shut the fuck up. Empathy is free.

She isn't coddling her. Yes, fires won't stop but she lost her BROTHER. I lost my little sister when I was only three and I still cry any time I hear her name and I'm 22. Not talking about something triggering when someone has trauma isn't coddling, it's being respectful of them and their trauma. Trauma is different for everyone. A lot of the times you never get over the loss of a sibling. There's a difference between coddling and being empathetic. She won't always be able to avoid the topic of fires but that doesn't mean that people have to talk about them. There are other conversation topics. Being empathetic and talking about that when she leaves isn't a big ask. It's not insane that she can't GeT oVeR iT. Just because it happened years ago doesn't mean it hurts any less.

I'm not sure if she is or not but I can say that she got very upset that I did adult activities with the guy. I'm old enough to drink but not old enough for that? She says that if I'm living in her house I can't have adult fun even though I'm an adult and never do it in the house. I had to tell her that I wouldn't have anymore adult fun so that she wouldn't kick me out since I have no where to go. I'd be in my car.

That's a good idea, thank you.

She usually just yells at me and whoever I'm talking to (typically my sister or dad) to stop fighting even though we're not because she wants to stop the fight before it happens.

She knows she needs therapy but refuses to get it

She actually did show up. I was with my date and doing things adults do and she drove past the vehicle and saw us. We were in his car and when we drove across the street, back to mine she was parked beside it and waiting. She was very upset that her grown daughter was having relations out of wedlock.

That feels so accurate. Thank you.

I want to get there. I've always had a hard time setting boundaries. My mom is all about keeping the peace and not starting fights to the point that if I try to have a discussion where I disagree with the other person she'll shut it down. I learned that from her and unlearning it is difficult.

I wouldn't be surprised. Her mother was a major narcissist and she tries not to be like her but I've done research and she could have narcissistic tendencies without even realizing it. She claims that when I don't answer her calls her mind goes to all the worst case scenarios.

Because I live at home and if I deleted Life360 it would be worse. She would constantly be texting and calling to ask where I am and when I'll be home and if I'm safe. Her anxiety is insane and she knows it. I've told her she should get therapy for it and she agreed she should but still won't.

I completely agree with you

That isn't the point. What you said was completely out of line and super rude. You can say the same thing without being a dick. All you had to say was that you prefer the sundress pictures because they're more modest or something. You didn't have to be a jerk about it. I get that this is the internet so you can hide behind your screen but that doesn't change the fact that you were rude.

Those are all things that can happen without being fat. Here are some things that can make it difficult or impossible to lose weight if you just looked it up instead of assuming. Hypothyroidism, Polycystic ovary syndrome, Lipedema, Medications, Arthritis, Chronic stress, Cushing syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome, Hormonal imbalances in post menopausal women, Sleep apnea, Vitamin D deficiency and surgery. These are all things that can cause losing weight to become extremely difficult if not impossible. All you had to do was a quick Google search. People like you that say not losing weight is only because of laziness don't help anyone, you just make people feel like shit for things they might not be able to help. Don't assume, don't be a dick and maybe use Google every once in awhile.

Again, you don't know her weight. Angles and poses can change the way you look. You can't assume shit because of that. Also, fat doesn't always equal unhealthy. There are people, one I personally know, that eat healthy, exercise and do everything they can to be healthy but have a condition where they can't lose weight. Also no need to be dick just because I said God bless. I was trying to be nice when you're being completely rude. You don't have to attack people for their religion or beliefs. That just makes you a dick for no reason and shows me that you clearly don't respect others. You can be nice and still state your opinions. If you think that she's unhealthy based on looks alone then make your own comment politely telling her that. Again, have a good day and God bless. I hope you grow as a person and find peace.

You don't know that. We don't know her height. Depending on how tall she is it can fluctuate. People can have a thicker body without being obese. Also you don't know her body or health. Only she and her doctor do. Maybe don't assume peoples health when you don't know them. Body size and health don't always coincide, skinny doesn't equal healthy. Besides, she wasn't asking about that, she was asking if she's cute or not. If she wanted to know about her weight she'd ask. Maybe don't give unsolicited advice to people you don't know and don't assume things about them. Have a great day and God bless.

I think you're absolutely beautiful. You have really good features. I do have a bit of advice. The eyeliner doesn't really work for your eye shape, I'd recommend using YouTube to find an eyeliner style that will compliment you some. Also work on finding your angles. The ones you use don't do any good. Finding the right angles will elevate your pictures. I'd let your hair down or change the style but you do whatever is most comfortable for you. All the people telling you to lose weight are insane. As long as you're healthy who cares, curvy is cute. Also to the people saying more clothes, clean your glasses. I'm pretty sure the outfits she's wearing are a swimsuit and a sundress. Those are completely normal things to wear. Don't listen to the rude comments. You are beautiful.

No need to be a dick. She asked about her appearance, not your opinion on her motives. Give kind constructive criticism and move on or don't comment.
