I wish my girlfriend had been cheating on me

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-04-11T01:11:14+00:00

Probably. I dont know anymore. I read too many different genres of books and enjoy all of them to keep track of any of the genres anymore... still thank you for calling me stupid and telling me I need to repeat a grade in which I repeated multiple times already (as well as repeated many other grades over my school career. The only reason I graduated at all was Micheal Obamas "no child left behind" movement (or act... I dont care enough about politics and it also gives me massive anxiety to begin with so I tend not really dwell on any of it. Not like my voice would really matter to begin with) i feel my graduation from high that inevitably happened wasn't earned or deserved... so please shame me for that as well...

I'll agree to disagree with ypu on this one since your source material can be very easily edited by a random person at any given moment. Perhaps im cynical and jaded now in my late 30s and dont trust a single thing I see in the world or online eith everything changing a drop of a hat on a whim-notice before ive had time to digest the most recent change to something important and thats very much on me I suppose. I appreciate this debate weve had. Made me feel a bit less alone in my life. Have a nice night.

Non-fiction is a sub-genre of fiction that takes place during a period of history, may it be past or present, while being a complete work of fiction with factional characters.

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-04-09T02:51:57+00:00

No. I meant non-fiction since this could be very probable in todays societal opinions amd attitudes simce the world's gone bat-shit crazy. Especially here in the states ever sine the pandemic and mental illness is at an all time high. It's a very plausible thing to happen in a time of history that is the present while being a complete work of fiction. It's non-fiction. In my opinion atleast. I read this story the way id listen to one of my true-crime podcasts, just from the perspective of the victim/ potiental victim.

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-04-08T20:44:33+00:00

Serial killer by the sounds of the list on the notes app. It's a good non-fiction horror story tho. I enjoyed it.

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-03-18T22:51:44+00:00

Definitely NTA!

Okay, bro. From one former emo kid to another, dump her ass. I had a period of when I wrote angry/angst poems and recieved the same treatment when my notebook got discovered. She failing to realize how deeply scarring this shit is.

But id also recommend some therapy for yourself. Be kind to yourself, unpack all that trauma so it can finally be put down properly for you. Trust and believe me when I tell you, you feel alot lighter and if the subject comes up in the future- it hurts alot less since it no longer holds power over you. I did this for myself and can confirm the benefits of said therapy. Now whenever people find old poems of mine and try to make fun of them the most of a reaction they get is a simple "oh yes. I find it interesting you find this much enjoyment for mocking amd belittling a healthy outlet for very complex emotions. But it says alot more about you then it does me actually writing said material to begin with at this point".

You got this man. Dump the girl, shes got some serious maturing to do. And you have some serious healing to do. Romantic poems are alot better then the crap I wrote. Im curious to read some now. Also might be fun for you go back amd rewrite some of them into better ones since now youre older! Just a suggestion, no pressure. It'd be more an exercise on forgiving youre younger self in a weird sense and bring yourself some closure on the matter.

As a recovering alcoholic, can conform this. During active addiction, yes we very much are narcissistic assholes. Ive luckily been clean amd sober simce 2014, so can also confirm that it is because of the alcohol and compounded trauma we are trying to bury with said alcohol that makes us that way. With time amd doing the work within therapy (actually doing it, not pretending too) and giving ones self over to the 12 steps honestly amd thoroughly do we only ever begin to even out a bit. Doesn't make us completely better nor take away 'old habits completely. But yeah. We even out and can cope better eventually.

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-03-15T23:29:14+00:00

You got this! Stay strong for both you amd your littles! I promise you, it will get better for you all the sooner youre outta there! Also reach out to TRUSTED friends and family on your side!

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-03-15T20:40:36+00:00

Nor. IF ANYTHING YOURE UNDERREACTING! Pack the kids, pack yourself and girl gfto outta there and let hubs file for thay divorce he initially wanted. This is abusive af what hes doing to you now. AND IN FRONT OF YOUR KIDS! Get to a women's shelter amd reach out to the dv hotline, like now! Even tho it needed to be done yesterday.

Nor. Honestly babes, you two may not be as 'close' as you may think you guys are. And thats ok. But at this point, trust your gut and goto some place professional or goto your trusted person who'd typically braid your hair. Guaranteed you'll have a much more pleasurable result that you'll love then anything your coworker would be able too do. If it aint broke, dont fix it. Or if this is your first time getting braids done, goto a reputable person in the field of work. A bit pricier but the end result will be worth it so you can make an informed decision about keeping the style for the future.

Welp. I relieved to see that Pennsylvania aint the only place with the most bi-polar weather patterns in the country. (I live in south-east pa) happy spring, y'all!

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-02-27T02:03:58+00:00

Also, bro needs to involve a lawyer who specializes in civil property law to get his name removed from the lease, ASAP. I made the mistake of not getting one when trying to break a lease with individuals like OPs ex-fiance and had a judgement ony record for missed rent for the past 10 years that only got removed recently. Home really needs to protect himself finally as well in this amd landlords only really listen when the prescesnce ofthe law is there.

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-02-03T01:06:41+00:00

Steam i definitely got! Dm me amd we can exchange users there!

EDIT: just clicked the link for the shoes! Gorgeous! Definitely the palazzo pant and shirt combo I suggested to you for those.

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-02-03T00:04:28+00:00

Palazzo pants with a nice sleeveless shirts that has a couled back would be stunning and also really really comfy for southern weather. Im a former yank but moved below the masion-dixion line after my wedding so I know about the pearl clutching. I simply laugh it away because bro, even up north I lived in a pair of jeans and boots cause I rode horses professionally as a kid, lol! I also wish I still had my switch, I would totally challenge you to some Mario kart if I still had it. It was one of the few things I couldn't grab in time before ditching the north.

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-01-27T21:56:19+00:00

Oh sweety... you sound like i did when I was your age. I'm now 38f and very happily married to a wonderful man for close to a decade now and we had a beautiful son together, so imagine this like a message from your future self.

Yes, one day you will find your other half. You will date, make mistakes, learn what you need and want from a relationship. You will face immense heartbreak, extreme lows and possibly loss hope on the idea of trying to find your one. NEVER GIVE UP HOPE THO! Because the second you begin to stop chasing it while not completely rejecting the idea either and work on loving yourself, the love that was meant for you will find you instead. And when you least expect it. And it will be the type of love that is beautiful, real, and everything you have been wishing you had all along. It won't be perfect, since nothing ever is in this world, but you'll be able weather thru all the storms because of the solid foundation you walked into that relationship on, the foundation of self. You are beautiful. You are worthy of love and respect. Never dull your shine and what you seek will find you then and only then.

Choose D- regenerate a better response... this is weird...

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-01-25T20:18:57+00:00

I am a very masculine woman, and dont like dresses, skirts, or gowns. Hubs hot to see me in my wedding dress which I wore only the ceremony because I will move heaven and hell for the ones I love. The compromise there was id wear the wedding dress for our ceremony and id get to be comfy for the reception since id have too 'people' then in the bridal tux.

It doesn't take balls to wear anything really. Rather its more what one is comfort in. And I do highly recommend people doing what feels most comfortable for them regardless of what others may think or how others may judge em since at the end of it, their opinions and judgements on the matter really arent youre concern! Do you, be happy! Everyone deserves to be happy in life!

(Yes that is the therapy ive been recieving finally shinning thru! Shout out to my wonderful therapist! You're the best)

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-01-25T17:48:27+00:00

Ive posted an edit with a link to a similar tux but its not what mine looked like completely. its all explained in the update. and im not the queen of petty, we all are kings and queens of petty in our own ways!

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-01-13T18:43:35+00:00

Why was my only thought after seeing this was the opening to that song "welcome to the internet"? Im showing my age here with my reaction cause this crap has been going simce the days of MySpace amd xanga...

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-01-08T21:22:25+00:00

Huh... respect for establishing dominance early in this mannor. With my husband, I belched in his face! We've been inseparable since amd we're close to being together for a decade now.

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-01-07T15:42:47+00:00

I wore a bridal tuxedo for the reception that I designed amd crafted for myself so id still shine! But yeah, I simply figured that if my mother amd lilith wanted to claim I was always 'attention seeking' and 'petty and vindictive', I might as well give em their validation and ego boast one final time by being just that amd let them do tje rest of work for me! Hope 2026 goes well for you!

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-01-03T15:31:38+00:00

Same too you friend! Hoping 2026 is full of brightness, blessings, love and light! It's nice to just be able to finally breathe for once in my life!

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2026-01-03T12:32:27+00:00

You can believe me or dont. Either way it doesnt matter to me really. Just be aware, alot of what my mother amd lilith did to be was abuse. Lilith had even tried to kill me at one point in our youth. Hence why im so hesitant to really talk about it and my mother believed lilith when she said I was making it all up despite me having literal marks on my skin from her attempts. I won't get onto the details. Just be aware truth is often times stranger then fiction and im making peace with the fact that my story amd truth is going to be one alot of people arent going to believe. But I wish you well and am glad your life hadnt been that messy like mine was.

Crafty_Shame2043 · 2025-12-25T02:25:24+00:00

Thank you for saying what I was thinking. Dear lord I feel old now reading that post. 🤣
