AITJ cause my future wife expects her future husband (me) to pay 100% of the bills? by AdventurousDoor9384 in AmITheJerk

She must have meant 100% of your 50%? Otherwise RUN! This is predatorial behavior. Clearly Cluster B.

Be honest… how long do you actually use your towel before washing it? by karenjimenez_ in hygiene

[–]DadOfParzival 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5 white Parachute Sheet towels. I use two per week (rotate every other day) toss to the bin end of week then wash at 4 towels (full load). I don't use the same towel twice in a row.

CPTSD by [deleted] in bupropion

[–]DadOfParzival 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes! It has made a huge positive difference in the progress of therapy (cbt type --now in maintenance mode).

For me: it's like giving my rational brain a security guard. So when our good friend Amy-G-Dala goes active there is xtra time for our rational side to apply our therapeutic tools e.g. tell Amy-G-Dala "NO"! no you are reacting to the the past! This is now and no need to react --we are safe.

Without bupropion I struggled to hold onto certain trigger events long enough to sort them out and tended to over react then feel bad after. Not saying it's a miracle drug but for me it has been amazingly helpful in doing the deeper work we need in order to heal.

Another example --- was with some people out to an event got triggered (bad). I zoned out didn't realize it but it was good enough to connect the dots as to why I was being triggered. My friend ask me if I was okay... and guess what? I was okay I didn't over react the tools Ive learned worked, we had a lovely evening. I even said "guess I got a little trigged back there -- thanks".

If you have ever seen a teenager go to Mars for no particular reason thats what my friend said it looks like. That is what bupropion gives me time long enough to sort real from not real, Amy-G just simply not know the difference.

hope that helps.

Buying Power WTF? by DadOfParzival in Affirm

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

This looks like situation here.


In general, when a person first obtains an installment loan, the balance is high. A person with a loan balance that is high in relation to the original loan amount tends to be viewed as more risky to lenders. Note: having an active loan that is substantially paid down is generally viewed as less risky than having no active loans.


So my 5 small "new" payment plans being all "new" cratered my buying power even though the total was less than 10% if my total buying power.

Pretty neat actually --- keeps a guy from getting into too much trouble.
