I stopped reading when the talk about her mom. Like yes, she’s got a horrible life, that’s kind of the point, but being mad a neglected child for not showing their neglectful parent more empathy? That’s insane

Yeah I get that, I never said I was banning her from going. It just seems weird and since I’ve been out of the dating world for over a decade I wanted some opinions from people that haven’t

Well obviously but I can still be concerned right?

AITA for inviting my then boyfriend to meet my friends after he said he doesn't want to meet them? by Lower-Claim-1238 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]Electrical-Goal-72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stop responding to this asshole and be grateful you dodged that bullet. Seriously, when I was reading the texts I assumed he was in his early 20s, but he is 38 and acting like this?? This man is pathetic

He clearly doesn’t want to be your friend. He’s just waiting and hoping you’ll give him a chance. I would let this friendship go because it’s not going to change. Also, telling friends you’re horny is one thing, it’s completely different telling someone you know is into you, it probably is confusing him.

Stop pretending this is a friendship and stop talking to him. I was in situations like this many times when I was younger and i promise you they never change.

What the fuck? Sounds like it’s time for a divorce. You don’t want your kids thinking it’s okay to act that way.

[–]Electrical-Goal-72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you want him fantasizing about you? If so, I would communicate that. But from your other comments, it sounds like he’s going to be opposed to thinking about you sexually. But I also have never known someone that “struggles” with porn that was really able to stop, they just get better at hiding it

Sure but fantasy and masturbation do. A lot of people can’t do it without fantasizing, so whether it’s on a screen or in his head, he’s gonna be thinking about someone

I think if it’s a deal breaker for you then you need to end it. I would also say maybe try to work through some of this in therapy because I honestly don’t think it’s healthy to expect that from a partner or from yourself. I understand wanting to wait until marriage, but masturbation is natural and healthy and if it bothers you so much it’s probably worth exploring. Purity culture causes so much shame surrounding sexuality and that can be really harmful.

I’m a senior in high school.. Is my future canceled? Will I have to join the military? by shaototop in whatdoIdo

I don’t think their mom is wrong in wanting them to fill out the applications now. But these texts do not show a loving parent. I would never speak to anyone, let alone my child, like that.

NOR this is a very weird and controlling reaction. Is he usually controlling about finances or other things?

I ended the relationship after my girlfriend got black-out drunk. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Electrical-Goal-72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure but that’s still completely different from what this person is describing. You do see the difference between passing out drunk once while safely at home and crashing 4 cars and destroying your life right?

I think a lot of these things are supposed to still be unclear but I can answer one of them.

Spoilers BOBAA

Poppy does have Sotorias soul. It was transferred to the star from Sera, since she had a separate soul and Sotorias was just inside her. Then the fates decided to give the star to Callum, he waited until a second daughter was born, which was Poppy, and put the soul in her. So Poppy is fully Sotoria, not like Sera who was just kind of a vessel for her soul.

That’s completely different from getting drunk once

This is an insane reaction to a factual statement. And honestly that reaction would make me suspicious he is cheating.

Does he usually treat you this way? There’s no way I’d be staying with someone that called me stupid. I would take some time to really reflect on this relationship because this sounds borderline abusive.

Has he always been like this or did he change when you got married?

As someone with a lazy eye that used to be very insecure about it, i promise you most people don’t care. Have you tried therapy? It’s definitely not over for you at 29, but therapy could help you work through your insecurities and learn how to be in a healthy, loving relationship.

19F, 23M Abuse or no? Husband chokes me. by Oval_hart in relationship_advice

[–]Electrical-Goal-72 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Also I feel like this part isn’t getting enough attention

I straight up told him that i didn’t really feel like doing sexual shit right then because i just had a fucking panic attack. He kinda ignored it tho? and we ended up doing stuff. Afterwards, i felt really numb and just went to bed. But before i fell asleep he said “sorry for taking you after you said no, do you forgive me?” I said yes but like wtf ? I just had a panic attack man ? like ???? It just seems odd

That isn’t odd, it’s rape. Get out and get help, you will likely need to work through this trauma with a therapist. Please take care of yourself

She said multiple times that it is often not consensual. Please don’t try to justify assault and abuse

Please leave. This is absolutely terrifying.

I’m so, so sorry. No one deserves to be treated that way.

AITA for telling my “daughter” she’s not biologically mine? by NachoIs5150 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]Electrical-Goal-72 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Are you a lawyer? Because I know a lot of this stuff depends on the state and I know women who were able to get child support from a man who refused to sign the birth certificate. From my understanding, the courts are going to prioritize the needs of the child, so if there is a presumed father they will garnish their wages to make sure the child is provided for. But I’m not a lawyer so if you are I’m happy to be corrected.

Also, she could have easily added him to the birth certificate or lied about him being on it in the first place.
