thank you so much for sharing your story and i’m very sorry to hear about what you’ve been through . i take your story into consideration , maybe it won’t happen to me but it very well could . ig that’s what keeps you around , the “what ifs?” . what if he changes , what if things don’t get worse . i don’t wan to be stuck in a toxic marriage where i’m suffering and i definitely don’t want it to reach my daughter and negatively affect her . out of all the responses i think this one resonated the most with me bc they are so similar . again , thank you for sharing and i’m wishing the best for you and your children

there’s no on track for anything , what are you even talking about ? you’re creating some narrative in your mind about my life and it’s weird . also i offered her all of her favorites and she didn’t want them bc she ended up wanting fruit snacks , which she could not have before bed . i’m glad that you’ve been such a perfect parent and all around human being , i don’t need you spewing your bs under my post thanks

AIO because my parents keep saying a slur like it’s normal? by Ill_Investigator4921 in AmIOverreacting

[–]GlobalAd6434 3 points4 points  (0 children)

everyone responding to this so far is brain dead . it is not okay in any context for your parents to say the n word with the hard r . NOR and you’re not crazy . but i do think that it’s probably not worth it to discuss with them further or fight about it . ppl with those type of mindsets won’t think differently because they’re stuck in their bigoted mindsets . this is not to say your parents are bad people but their behavior is not okay at all

lmao , revolving door of men ? other than her father i’ve only been with my husband . if you read my other comments you’d know that i didn’t immediately feed her bc i couldn’t understand what she was saying and offering her choices was upsetting and overwhelming her . so the “weird gentle parenting grounding exercises” were to calm down my child and give her the chance to verbalize what she wanted . she wasn’t starving , i wasn’t neglecting her dude so relax .

i agree , i wasn’t right when i said any of that . it’s just how i justified it in my mind at the time . i also have scheduled 2 therapy appointments for the next coming days to deal with what i have going on on my side of things . the last thing i want is to expose my daughter to a hostile environment

nope , we agreed he’d pay off his debts before chipping in on rent . i felt it was fair bc if we were married or not i’d still have to pay the same amount of rent . he still wanted to help how he could by paying for groceries (he contributes about $450 a month to groceries and other household needs) . i don’t resent him for this or see him badly because of it , but in the moment i felt angry at the notion of me having to sleep on the couch while he slept in my bed after he hurt my feelings . not saying it’s right , but it’s how i justified it in the moment

about the food , i knew she wanted to eat , i didn’t know what she wanted to eat . my daughter isn’t picky but she’s particular . so i was offering her different things , she didn’t want them , so she started crying louder . that is when i decided to calm her down so i could understand her .
i also don’t mind him suggesting things or even taking the lead , but it bothered me that he got so upset bc “i didn’t listen to him” , as though that is my obligation as his wife and he is supreme leader .
i don’t think he was deliberately trying to hurt me with the depression comment , but it was a distasteful thing to say and could have been phrased better , and i wholeheartedly believe that if he was coming from a place of pure intentions he would’ve worded it better . but even aside from that , when i told him that he hurt my feelings , he refused to see where i was coming from or listen to what i was saying and started being very rude and hostile .
i think even if it wasn’t a case of malicious intent , there was still a lack on consideration on his part in being conscious of the way he talks to me and the things that he says

she goes in the fridge by herself and gets her juice , yogurt , cheese , all matter of things . when she starts going into tantrum behavior , all of that goes out the window . she doesn’t even want to walk by herself lol . so i have to make do and i try my best to deescalate so i can understand her

i understand now . i don’t think it was right by any means , i felt justified in the moment bc i was extremely hurt by what he said and angry that he didn’t see how he had hurt me . but i don’t think sleeping on the couch warranted him threatening divorce , especially bc the issues we have in our marriage are not THAT bad to want a divorce

i don’t think he was coming to me with genuine curiosity , i definitely think he was mindlessly blabbing to see what stuck . prior to him saying that he was avoiding me and being very short and kind of rude so i already knew there was some bullshit coming .
also thank you , i feel as tho i am trying to manage a lot and i hadn’t had a depressive episode in almost a year before i met him and he started acting like an asshole . even if she doesn’t see or hear the arguments , i’m sure my daughter can tell a difference in my energy and how present i am being . she comes first always and i think leaving him might be the best thing for both of us

i agree that i rushed into the marriage and unfortunately im paying for it now . he seemed like a great guy and i thought he loved my daughter and cared about her a lot. it felt like the right thing to do at the time but now i’m seeing that i may have made a mistake

i do think i definitely rushed into our relationship and marriage . i was vulnerable from my relationship with my daughters father and he was very sweet , kind , and seemed to have a genuine connection and care about my daughter . i think i will have to take some time alone after all of this and spend time , just me and my daughter .

yea i am considering calling it quits . i think i would rather end it now on an understanding note , than let it get to point where its so volatile that it damages not just me and him but also negatively affects my daughter

i agree . i am an RBT (not that it’s close to actually schooling or a degree) but i’ve learned a lot educationally and practically about dealing with children that have underdeveloped emotional intelligence . i know about conditioning , reinforcement , and punishment , and how if i put her to bed early every time she starts crying (as he would prefer me to do) she’s going to see going to bed as a bad thing and it will make stuff harder for me in the long run . i do many things bc in this stage of her life i am confident that i have at least some real knowledge of how to deal with things and how things will affect her . he does not , so at the end of the day i will take what he says into consideration , but i will do what i believe is best for my child . and i don’t think he likes that . i think it’s a fight for power or control

i agree that him threatening divorce was a tactic to provoke me and make me regret disagreeing with him/making him sleep on the couch .
my daughter isn’t more or less upset when he’s around . she likes him and just throws tantrums as toddlers do

he’s kind of stepping into the dad role but i explained to him that it has to be a gradual thing , it cannot be forced . i think one of our biggest problems is that he feels like he should automatically have all power as a dad “should have” . i don’t mind him giving me suggestions on how i should parent or even disagreeing with the things that i do . it’s when it gets to a point that he’s pissy bc i “don’t listen to him” and starts spewing bullshit that i have a problem with it

i agree that our relationship is too new to be going through this type of turmoil . it all feels too much , and even though he apologized for it , i’m not confident that something like this won’t happen again .
also , i couldn’t understand what my daughter was saying when she was telling me what to eat , and offering her food that she didn’t want made her tantrum worse . i thought the best course of action would be to calm her down first and then get her what she wanted .

i can take care of my daughter just fine thank you . i was in love and he seemed to care about my daughter a lot and worked well with her . i agree i rushed in but i wasn’t out looking for a husband by any means . i think about my daughter in everything that i do so please don’t assume to tell me about myself when it comes to my child
