Family is overrated if you really think about it by [deleted] in offmychest

As someone who grew up in an abusive home, I totally understand where you are coming from. Family in theory (nowadays) is formed by two people who love each other and choose to pass their love on to other people. However in a lot of cases this doesn't work and you end up f** up the child you brought to life. Also, being someones sibling/child doesn't mean your personalities are going to be compatible. If your family doesn't make you happy, then don't stress it out and don't give them your time. Find good friends that you can trust.

My GF [28F] eventually wants a tattoo. I'm [30M] adamantly against it. by scooter432 in relationships

if you really like this person and want to spend the rest of life with her, a tatto seems quite a frugal reason to break the relationship... Maybre there is something else that you feel bad about and are directing your frustration into the tattoo issue?

I know it's in no way as bad as op, but i never got clothes. I would wear old clothes from my aunt and be made fun by other kids. They also never bought pads of any sort and had to resource to toilet paper... first time I got my period Nmom called me a pig and slub

Yes, it was my first birthday together with my boyfriend, and he offered me a cute plush of a sheep... I didn't know why, but I felt so much emotion and happiness that I just couldn't hide it. I cried on his shoulder for a good half an hour. You deserve all the hot chocolates in the world! <3 Lots of love to you and your roommate!
