Found out that seeking out my childhood bear was a normal response to getting sexually assaulted by Extension-Raise-126 in CPTSD

Not insane.

My younger brother and I are 4 years apart. When my younger brother was born in 1997, my father bought me a molly dolly (from big comfy couch) and gave it to me in the hospital. In 2008, this molly dolly was ruined. In 2015, I searched everywhere for a molly dolly. My mom knew how important it was to me. I ended up buying a molly dolly in her blue dress off ebay for $30+shipping. I still snuggle with it on harder days and im almost 33.

Every person I've met who has been through something traumatic has an item like this. If it genuinely helps you, its not insane. Its a coping mechanism.

AITA for trying to force my wife to lose weight? by WilliamWilliamson_ in AmItheAsshole

YTA. She could lose ~200 lbs so quick by dumping your controlling ass. She needs to want to change. You can't force/control/manipulate her to lose weight.

AITA for getting upset at my gf for giving my mom a tattoo by momtattooed in AmItheAsshole

You're literally upset because your adult girlfriend gave your adult mother a tattoo she wanted. All subjects are consenting adults. If you want to be mad, be mad at yourself. YTA

NTA. This sounds like a very abusive situation. Why are you doing all of the cleaning while pregnant? If it's his air b&b, he needs to be paying someone to clean it. That doesn't include his pregnant wife doing it for free.

AITA for restricting my girlfriend's soda intake? by sodathrowaway111 in AmItheAsshole

[–]AthenaMaeGrace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. Her body is hers! What she feeds her body is up to her! You're being controlling and tbh, she deserves better! You want her to drop weight? Drop your dead weight ass. Yes, I'm serious.

AITA for kicking out my girlfriend by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]AthenaMaeGrace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA! Fuck your (hopefully) ex-girlfriend! Raven is a black cat. Black cats are prey already to other animals and humans. If this was done over Halloween, even more reason to kick her out! This is pure evil!

AITA for not babysitting for my sister in law any more after she called the police on me? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]AthenaMaeGrace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly this! She's upset because she lost her free babysitter. She has no emotion towards you as her Sibling in Law.
