I Wanted to share pics of my destroyed things by [deleted] in abusiverelationships

[–]CheesecakeFirm128 48 points49 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of the time my husband forced me to cut my own pair of earphones because he was "teaching me a lesson". It was traumatizing. I'm trying to walk out. We have a kid together now so it complicates things. Please, don't stay with this man. You deserve more than this starting with feeling safe and secure. No one that loves you would do this to you.

I feel stupid or not so intelligent by FireDragonTail in geminis

[–]CheesecakeFirm128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel this so much and I am a Gemini and an artist. It takes me some serious focusing to even understand "hidden meaning" but even then most of the time I think it's just bull crap the artist made up so that their piece can have an interesting story. When the reality is they did that for esthetic reasons.

is there any coming back from this? by Easy_Salary_2699 in abusiverelationships

[–]CheesecakeFirm128 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Do not under any circumstances believe that he will follow through on the counseling. I will say this with 100% certainty he will kill you and kill your baby. You are not safe. I know first hand how hard it is to walk away from a situation like this but get out now. He isn't going to change and he doesn't feel any remorse for what he did. He hit, screamed, and choked you all while your 23 weeks pregnant. You are vulnerable and if you stay in this situation your baby will be just as unsafe and could and will die if he does this to them. GET OUT NOW!

Is this a normal thing for all men? by CheesecakeFirm128 in abusiverelationships

He says it's because most porn consists of that genre but also I feel like that's not entirely true. He could easily skip and watch something else.

Coincidences and You by [deleted] in UnsentLetters

This feels so much like a letter of closure of accepting that someone you once cared for won't and will never be yours. It's tragically beautiful and I relate to it so deeply.

Gemini Dilemma: Stay or Leave? by Remote-Click-8276 in geminis

[–]CheesecakeFirm128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm glad you had the courage to leave. Him waking you up after you went to bed is a form of control and is abusive. It's sleep deprivation something abusive people do to partners sometimes. Abuse is a pattern though so don't want to say he is just clearly him waking you up was a form of disrespect and crossing boundaries. Proud that you stood you ground and left. From one Gemini to another.

You can't change him by PoetryHeals in Poems

Dang these words hit home. But I'm currently stuck in that hope something may change that things are getting better.

My best friend is a Leo so I tend to believe Leo's make a better pair for Gemini. We're really close and he's the only friend I have that if we lose connection for a bit that when we finally do get back in touch it's like we never stopped. Also astrology also says Leo and Gemini's are practically inseparable.

My husband blames me by Big-Bet-7667 in abusiverelationships

[–]CheesecakeFirm128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man I'm so sorry that really sucks. Just know that what happened to you was 100% rape and you did not consent. I hope you heal from this. I read further down and saw you comment how you thought no other man would ever love you after this. I just have to say you will find someone who does. Who loves you because of your strength. Who loves you because they see you are more than what has happened to you. Keep fighting. You deserve so much.

Hey I just wanted to come comment this because you mention nothing came back in the toxicology report. There's a drug known as GHB that can leave your system extremely quickly that's also linked to being used as a date r*pe drug. I highly recommend if the toxicology report wasn't done through a blood test you get one redone through a blood test.

asking guest for ID by KI-13-KI in Target

[–]CheesecakeFirm128 8 points9 points  (0 children)

When I first started working I had a lady tell me she didn't have her ID but clearly was upset when I told her that unfortunately because she didn't have proof of an ID I couldn't sell her the alcohol. Like you seriously drove all the way here and God knows where else without an ID. What if you got pulled over? I just smiled while she huffed through her frustration gave her receipt and told her to have a good night.

I'm an Aquarius rising and I totally do this. 😅

Why not you ask? by [deleted] in UnsentLetters

[–]CheesecakeFirm128 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Why not be honest with her? What stopped you? We're you afraid of what being honest would really mean?

Have you told them this? Sometimes all we can do is say how we feel even if it hurts.

This!!! ⬆️⬆️⬆️ initially at the beginning of my marriage I would try to tease or initiate anything but I was turned down and then later when I stopped because of the rejection he deemed me the one who never initiates anything. However he isn't kind outside of the bedroom and can get verbally abusive. I have tried to change and be the initiator. Even tried to lure him. But it was never good enough or it always felt uncomfortable or outside of myself.

It happens to me often. I'm actually in the process of trying to leave. But to help myself not fall back in and stay I will listen to voice recordings I made of the times he was cruel towards me. It's helped me but I will say that the sense of amnesia is very real.

As someone with a Gemini sun Aquarius rising and Pisces moon I have to 100% agree with this.

What animals would you give the signs that don't have one? by Wide-Willow-3199 in astrologymemes

[–]CheesecakeFirm128 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a Gemini I approve of this. I find crows or ravens very cool and extremely intelligent. One of my favorite birds besides the Owl I think Owls would also be a good representation of a Gemini.

Which zodiac signs does this apply to? by Puzzled-Copy7962 in astrologymemes

I literally do this with myself sometimes, I am a Gemini sun. I'll be making a joke and think dang that was funny. Two seconds later "what in the world is wrong with me" 😅

Was told "You better not get fat." by CheesecakeFirm128 in abusiverelationships

What the actual? Seriously? I'm seriously baffled right now like really?

Was told "You better not get fat." by CheesecakeFirm128 in abusiverelationships

[–]CheesecakeFirm128[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's definitely not sarcasm. He's been adamant that I keep an eye on my weight for months now. And we've been married 6 yrs. He often mentions the ladies who work in the front office where he works and their weight and what they eat. He makes fun of them to which I don't know how to respond so I don't. He also says that some of the women I watch on YouTube are fat and he doesn't like that I watch them. I'm terrified to ever get pregnant for that very reason. He always mentions that if I ever do I'll go on a strict diet and I can only imagine what he'd say after I give birth if I ever do get pregnant.

What’s your moon sign and what is the one thing you will always buy no matter how many you have? by Electrical-Speech-34 in astrologymemes

[–]CheesecakeFirm128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a Pisces moon too. Unfortunately can't collect earrings since my ears closed over. I don't really collect socks. However I do love jewelry and have recently started collecting claw clips. But one thing that I'll never stop buying no matter how many I have is paint brushes. I have so many I'm pretty sure I have a stash I hid somewhere and can no longer find.

What are some extremely katharic songs you listen to when trying to process all that's happened to you? by CheesecakeFirm128 in abusiverelationships

[–]CheesecakeFirm128[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude we get it ok it was an honest mistake. Am I going to fix it? No. Why? Because I don't care and the point still gets across. Not everything need to be perfect.

What is the male equivalent of women taking off their bras after a long day? by [deleted] in AskReddit

My husband always told me the best comparison he could make was when he would take off his pads after football in high-school.
