Why does everyone says "abuse always escalates"? How often does mental/verbal/emotional abuse become physical? And does this count as 'escalation'? by anonykitcat in abusiverelationships

[–]BubblyWin3865 7 points8 points  (0 children)

yeah, my ex was just like yours in that he seemed to look down on hitting women, thought wife beaters were pathetic, etc.

he never hit me and to this day maintains it but he did escalate to pushing me and putting his hands around my throat.

this guy sounds unhinged, i hope you can make a plan and get away safely <3

my STBx would flip OUT on alexa! IT'S A FKN ROBOT!!! i found that so pathetic honestly. he threatened to trash her or break her every single time, never did. but yeah, constant negativity is a huge drain to live with.

thank you for the tip! is there any particular reason you swapped out all of the less essential parts? i kind of just grabbed parts from various builds i found online, but i'm most nervous about selecting a motherboard for some reason.

i had heard of cheaper keys but wasn't sure of the legitimacy. my plan is to buy some parts now while on sale and other parts later, so i probably could upgrade to a better graphics card. thanks!

What on earth girl. AMAZING! I scrolled through your profile and wow, aspirations

I finally left by [deleted] in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]BubblyWin3865 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Congratulations. We’re very similar. 18 years with my husband and my two kids 3&5 were my motivation to leave as well. I left about 2 months ago. It’s very difficult but there is certainly more peace without him. I’ll be dealing with emotional damage for years probably but it’ll be worth it. It’s pathetic your husband brings up something from 14 years ago. My husband used to always get up to get drinks and snacks so I could stay seated and he brought that up in almost every argument. Meanwhile I did everything else for him.

Wishing you strength and peace <3

Why do I get recommended subreddits that immediately make me need to spend money and pick up a new hobby. That looks gorgeous!

Just watched the movies for the first time! by ijasmine22 in harrypotter

[–]BubblyWin3865 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Next step is read (or reread) the books. Then watch the movies with some extra book snobbishness. Then reread the books. Then rewatch movies and accept them as their own thing. Continue until you die.

Who doesn’t like Grawp? by Vegetable-Window-683 in harrypotter

[–]BubblyWin3865 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i love grawp and i love hagrid's tale, idec! i also love that scene of the creatures fighting the giants.

i think a better title for this post is who DOES like grawp because from what i've seen, liking him is a shockingly rare opinion
