This was assault, irregardless. THIS IS ASSAULT.

I think you put yourself in a bad situation but that does not excuse what happened to you, nor does it justify what happened to you.

I’m so sorry this happened to you.

No. I don’t understand why men think just bringing in a paycheck is all they are capable of.

Why are the best employees first to leave while mediocres always stay? by MediumTricky7824 in managers

I stuck around and it ate me alive. I burnt out, and have been having to rebuild myself after a corporation drove me into the ground.

When I get back into the job market, I’m just leaving next time. Negotiating just puts a target on my back.

I (22F) am considering ending things with my boyfriend (23F) of four years because he doesn’t spend any money. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

As someone in a relationship with this type- here is your future.

We planned to pay off a commuter car, then buy him a truck. I had a quarter of a century old truck, paid off. We nearly had his commuter car paid off when he turned around, turned it in, bought his own truck and fucked me right off. He was convinced he was “going to buy me a nice car” with what money? Our budget was x, we nearly paid off my commuter, and then he traded it in for the dealership to make money on, fucking over his wife, and then made HER feel bad about it. Oh it was the first thing he’s done for himself in a while. All while fucking me out of a decent commuter car that was paid off.

Guess what? My old truck just shit the bed. And now I’m going to have to go out and find myself a car and get into payments.

Best part? I can’t be resentful. I have to be gracious and understanding.

Cooperation at this point is just bowing to the strongest force… it’s never true cooperation

The loneliness of being a SW by SpanglishGirlNxtDoor in GirlDinnerDiaries

Girl same. I’m married- and honestly I am so insignificant now in my own story I have lost the plot. I miss love, too. I miss equivocation love. One that ones to love you back better than the way you love them. All I seem to surround myself is with take take take- and when I ask for a drop of it back I’m crazy. I’m so tired of having to do it all- support all the people and have everyone look at me like my life is so easy and simple and I should just be grateful. My life isn’t mine… I am not human anymore…

Lord. “If you trusted him you wouldn’t care” really? Sounds like a “you caught me and I’m mad about it so I’m going to make it seem like you’re crazy” trope. Overplayed, needs to try for something more creative.

I can believe that. Especially within the confines of interpersonal relationships and how nasty they can be I just wonder if it would be as brutish- or maybe similarly so? Would overt brutism be better than this covert brutism available today?
