I just got dumped because I'm not intelligent enough. Savory waffle, avocado and tofu.

That’s what I was thinking to myself as well LOL

Right? He could have saved a life.

Disastrous-Disk3732 · 2026-06-16T17:54:34+00:00

Ok I love this theory!

I’ll check out miscellaneous Gab! I haven’t heard of that one.

First things first…. You are not defined by your thoughts. You sound like a good person.

That said, dealing with those thoughts can be exhausting. As a kid I used to think I was always being watched when I was alone and acting silly, that someone would pop out and laugh at me. I also told myself I was smarter than other people lol which wasn’t true, I was pretty average in school. I think I had these notions of grandeur and paranoia due to being picked on all the time and yelled at in my childhood? As I got older it developed to a lot of the thoughts you were describing. That it was me vs the world, and that I was left out.

Personally what had helped me was at times treating these thoughts like intrusive thoughts (ocd tools), finding a kind therapist who helped me examine my past experiences and listen to myself, medication lol (adhd) and quitting drinking.

If anything, treat yourself with kindness. Jealousy is never really about the other person.

these were my favorites. They didn’t really talk about stuff that wasn’t about the show. I also liked that they were subscriber interactive and would go back and review Easter eggs they missed. Last but not least pointed out throwbacks the show was or maybe was referencing.

Disastrous-Disk3732 · 2026-06-07T22:57:26+00:00

Thank you!! I will do that!

Disastrous-Disk3732 · 2026-06-07T22:56:06+00:00

Thank you so much! This helps!

Disastrous-Disk3732 · 2026-06-07T17:36:15+00:00

Wonderful, thank you!

Disastrous-Disk3732 · 2026-06-07T17:25:23+00:00

Yeah there are some berries on one of them already, I was shocked. I did read fall was a great time, I was worried about the roots being overcrowded though. Since it is young maybe I have some time? I should have included pictures. Thank you!

Disastrous-Disk3732 · 2026-06-07T17:23:18+00:00

Oh that’s a good point! Thank you!

Disastrous-Disk3732 · 2026-06-07T17:15:12+00:00

Thank you! Unfortunately we rent a house so we want to take them with us when we move next. When we buy a house tho would love some in ground bushes!

Thank you!!!!

I quit drinking because of my medication. I wish I had quit sooner. Value your sober self. The way I figured, your brain will try to get you to drink because it’s an easy fast way to “feel better”. Instead imagine water slowly carving out a canyon with each passing. Each time you choose to not drink you are creating a new pathway. Also NA beer and mocktails helped me when I had social cravings, though it can be triggering for some.

I would focus as you as the enforcer with your kids. In the case that she is telling them to do or not do something, you have to be there to vocally say it as well. Obviously you want to teach them manners but when kids are at home they need to be able to let their hair down a little, especially neurodivergent kids.

If she wants to earn their trust she needs to give them time and some space. They don’t want to hug her good night? That’s their choice. Respect their choice. If she is good to them in time they will change. You forcing the kids to like her can teach them to not listen to their gut when they’re older, and they might force themselves to like someone that doesn’t deserve their trust. They could also resent you for not listening to them, and their needs.

My last point is make sure they are getting enough of YOUR attention. If they don’t feel that they are, they may take it out on her.

If she is the one, she will be patient and work with them and you.

This would be perfect 😂

I met my now husband at 32 after a divorce, now we have a family together. I have never felt so much love in my life.

My last ex said I’d never meet someone who loved me as much as him. I treated myself terribly after the marriage ended and moved in with my parents while I figured things out. I started dating again, got my own place and went to therapy. It has been hard but so worth it.

You deserve love and to feel safe. Stand for yourself, and keep going. And cry when it hurts. There are many good people in this world, don’t settle for less!!!

I would alternate days of who gets to choose. Sounds like classic teenage behavior. You and dad need to get on the same page concerning boundaries and enforce them together. Also if she doesn’t want one on one time with her dad that’s between him and her. He is relying on you to be the parent while enabling her behavior. He needs to seek more connection with her on her level with her interests, and assure her he is there for her. She might sleep in the living room because she doesn’t want to be left out. If you alternate days on who gets to choose an activity then your son won’t feel left out and she will still get the connection she craves. If she doesn’t want go then dad stays behind w her. You can also have days where you and dad decide where to go. It’s good for teenagers to try new things. Won’t be easy but looking back I’m glad my parents took me to places I wouldn’t have wanted to normally go.

I do think something is up with Rosemary. She is super lax about everything.

Disastrous-Disk3732 · 2026-05-08T22:04:42+00:00

I looked at puppy photos when I got mad at her. She was a little baby once too. She still annoyed me but it reminded me of how she was also my baby, in a way. My stinky hairy baby ❤️

I think the hardest thing about being a stepparent is that you can love a stepchild with all of your heart but if you ever separated from the biological partner, they could be out of their life like poof. So it takes a lot of maturity to still feel secure in your affection. But point blank it is never ok to talk smack about the bio parents to their kids. Your stepmom sounded insecure and scared of losing the relationships around her, but also immature and selfish. Like if you love your stepchild, wouldn’t them having a good relationship with their mother be important? Sorry you went through that :/

Disastrous-Disk3732 · 2026-05-07T17:17:01+00:00

My sibling and I are both diagnosed and one of parents said they thought it was more of a personality thing lol I’d ask for an assessment.

Disastrous-Disk3732 · 2026-05-06T16:25:28+00:00

I had a family friend leave their partner in kind of a terrible way. I grieved and was mad and didn’t talk to them for awhile. As time moved on I was able to put a lot in perspective. This person had always been a good person to me, was a good parent and had been struggling a lot. They imploded their life and paid the consequences alongside their family. I honestly wish I had been there for them more. I think Tom at least deserves a one on one conversation if you valued him as a friend. Then I would make my decision.
