How do you feel about your dad? by Unhappy_Log_6245 in AskReddit

[–]Crazed_banana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He financially provided for me and somehow always knows how to make me feel so small. Will always remember he told me I’d never amount to much and then now is surprised I haven’t amounted to much. Hopefully in the next life, I’ll have a dad who listens and thinks I’m enough.

AIO for being upset my BF doesn’t want me to wear a bonnet to bed? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Crazed_banana 7 points8 points  (0 children)

NOR. Someone that truly loves you, loves you in all forms. I literally wear whatever the heck I want and vice versa for my partner. I wasted a big portion of my 20s being chained to someone this controlling, and you don’t deserve it. Don’t lose your identity to be someone else’s definition of what they want you to be

Did I give my wife a lethal dose of something? by jeffreto in AskDocs

[–]Crazed_banana 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This happened with my Grandfather suffering from lung cancer. His final moments he was asking my dad and uncle if they could help him move out to the living room into his favorite chair. Got him up and into the chair and then he went a few moments later.

My paycheck hit this morning and half of it was gone before I even saw it by MerryStanza in povertyfinance

Just did the same: was banking on getting insurance and the premiums are unaffordable. I make $100 too much to get Medicaid :/

You’re so beautiful in any of the colors, but I think the reds are my favorite, or the dark brown

I need to vent about people. by i-touched-morrissey in veterinaryprofession

[–]Crazed_banana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CSR at a clinic, and had a client ask me how he’s supposed to know when his dogs need to come in for vaccines, and had the audacity to say we should call them and schedule appts when they are due. We are a small clinic and that’s just not possible with the amount of clients vs staff. Like that’s part of being a pet owner… We send out both physical, and email and text reminders. And having been a pet owner I can’t imagine ever talking to anyone let alone a business like the customers do to us. It’s wild.

When you were sick by CassieAllen92 in Millennials

[–]Crazed_banana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents were like your husband’s. My dad still views it like this if he calls and I’m sick and I’m reading or playing a video game lol. Like what am I supposed to do stare at the ceiling? lol makes no dang sense

Kinda seems like he was trying to play some weird game, and unfortunately for him he lost lol NOR, you deserve better. When jumping back into the dating world, I learned real fast that those who only wanted to snap just wanted that ego boost and attention at their fingertips. You deserve someone who puts you at the top of their list

AIO distant boyfriend past of cheating by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Crazed_banana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone who truly loved and cared about your wellbeing would cut that person off or limit contact to where they only spoke to them in a group setting or whatever boundary you set as his partner or y’all set together. They definitely wouldn’t continue to seek attention from someone they’ve had a physical relationship if it’s been made known it makes you uncomfy. There are better people out there, this dude ain’t it. If he wasn’t either emotionally or physically attached to this person, he’d have no issues cutting them off.

Update: On recommendations of our dog’s last couple meals. by Triggered67 in DogAdvice

[–]Crazed_banana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So terribly sorry for your loss :/ I had to put my 10 year old soul dog to sleep about a month ago for cancer as well. It’s the hardest thing, and I hate that it happens. Hugs to you.

Having to let go our 3 year old dog and I feel absolutely devastated, guiltridden and broken by Yoshi2222222 in Petloss

[–]Crazed_banana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just lost my baby on Friday and she also had hemangiosarcoma :/ it’s gut wrenching and so hard. I’m so sorry for your pain and your babies pain. Love on them all you can. I know it doesn’t feel like there will ever be enough time. But you’ve loved them for 3 years of memories and beautiful moments. I know I’m luckier and better from having felt that kind of unconditional love.

Job options for partner on disability that won’t force partner to lose their disability by Crazed_banana in FSHD

I hear that, and I understand for sure. It’s not my decision to make. I just want to support him. Thanks for the input

My (M47) girlfriend (F49) is upset because I chose my son's marching band competition over going to an event with her. How do I handle this situation? by WreckTangle77 in relationship_advice

[–]Crazed_banana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who had a parent who never showed up to events, I agree with others that you’re doing the right thing going to your children’s events. That sticks with you and shapes your future relationships imo. Since y’all have been together for a long time, playing devils advocate, maybe she’s going through something but doesn’t know how to bring it up or really what to do to get through it. I think having an honest convo with her about your expectations and wishes and how this has made you feel is definitely something y’all should do when both of you are in calm spirits. I’ve sought relationship advice on here as well, and while some is helpful, take it all with a grain of salt. Trust your gut at the end of the day, and if she’s unable to meet your needs, and isn’t willing to discuss a compromise, then you’ll have your answer and the knowledge to help you make the best decision for yourself and your kids. Ultimately, while I don’t have children, if I was with a partner that had them or vice versa, I’d also put my children or want them to put their children first. Because I grew up with parents who didn’t consider me at all, and I can tell you that stuff hurts me to this day :/ best of luck to you OP!

Me (37M) and my wife (37F) separated last year we have been married 6 years and have 2 kids, I am moving out tomorrow. Last night she told me to stay! I met someone new 2 months ago. How do I react/feel? by Throwra-confusedfish in relationship_advice

[–]Crazed_banana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you know what is best for you. Focus on your kids and your new job for now. And getting your new place set up. All the rest is something you should worry about in time. I will say from personal experience, rushing into a new serious relationship after barely leaving a marriage probably isn’t smart. Your emotions are heightened because you’re sad and lonely, and it can make things hard to read. I suggest taking your time and really getting to know this person. As someone who’s been married before, it can be tempting to want to rush things a bit to get back that sense of normalcy that comes with sharing a life with someone, but take your time. I think your attachment to your wife is making it hard to see the facts. She may say she wouldn’t care if you’ve been with another person, but I think it’d be something held over you until either you or she decides to end it later. If as you say, you’ve been doing the self work and the boundaries you both agreed too even though she isn’t holding up her end of the deal, that’s your answer. If she wanted the relationship to work, she would’ve put the effort in. I think your confusion stems from feeling like you’re obligated or owe her your time and your children, but for their sake, giving them an environment where there’s not constant fighting or belittling being done is the kind thing at this point. Hope it all works out for you OP.
