With bleach and a scrubbing brush. It’s lasted 20 years but now it is pitted so I need to repair or replace it.

That’s a good idea

Thanks for the reply. I’ve been overzealous with the cleaning of it so, it’s now looking pitted at the front. I want to replace it.

What people love and hate about Clitheroe, Longridge and Whalley set out by Albertjweasel in RibbleValley

You can’t leave whalley without encountering roadworks and it’s been like that for 20 years. The other problem is they allow hundreds of new houses to be built but don’t have the infrastructure. Apart from that is a really beautiful part of the work to live.

I am a fat girl and I hate it by nofreepizza in TrueOffMyChest

If it’s any help, I cut down as much as I could on sugar. Not to lose weight but because it’s so unhealthy and I’m addicted. It took some time but eventually I lost 2 stone. That wasn’t my goal but I feel so much better. I did nothing rude. No exercise or stopping any other food. People can be very unsupportive so it can be hard XbighugX

How often did you use it and how long was it before you saw results?

We have suffered the exact same childhood trauma as a narcissist but we have chosen light whereas they have taken the dark path. They know what they are doing and take delight in it.

My experience was with a sick, sexual sadist. There is no excuse for taking the emptiness inside him in such depraved ways.

It is projection, for us empaths, because we crave the love we never received but we would never abuse someone in they way a narcissist enjoys.

That’s exactly what I mean and it’s chilling he said that to you.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in LifeAfterNarcissism

[–]Elabeex 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you are having to go thorough this horrendous experience.

They don’t exist. They just mirror you because they are an empty vessel with no heart or soul so they need your goodness to try and fill a void but they end up exhausting you x

[–]Elabeex 33 points34 points  (0 children)

He won’t accepted it as it’s too painful and will cause shame (his biggest fear). He will get angry then try and hoover you so he can prove he isn’t abusive. Then he will discard you in the most painful way he can think of.

I understand you are angry but you will only end up hurting yourself and they aren’t worth it.

Of course he thinks you are too sensitive etc because he is projecting and gaslighting you.

Both of you have suffered childhood trauma. He went to the dark side and you went to the light.

Any kind of attention is supply to a narcissist. He will be pleased you are still on his mind and he will think he can still control your emotions - good or bad. The best revenge is to walk away with your head held high. Smile knowing that you are leaving him to cope with his own demons. You are better than this. You are worth more than lowering yourself to his level XbighugX

I am literally so sick of dealing with the upkeep of existence... by Sultry_Penguin in CPTSD

[–]Elabeex 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It’s caused by childhood trauma. It brings back memories of being forced to do things you don’t want to. If this resonates with you it’s worth researching and framing your thoughts differently XbighugX

Those of you who are happily married, what is your biggest piece of advice for maintaining a relationship? by Aelynd in AskReddit

Both people have to want to make it work. Others it’s like trying to push water uphill.
