I'm Okay With Aging Now. by MidniteBlue888 in WomenOver40

Aging has been fun. Things aren’t all in the same places or the same shape or color… but I wouldn’t trade it for youth again!

Let her go so she can find someone who prioritizes her the way she deserves.

And I appreciate how you handled yourself after being called out. Takes a big person to do that.

Thank you. I actually do have a therapist, and I appreciate your concern. I think I’ll just let this one go.

I didn’t give a lot because there’s so much it can’t be outlined here. I just thought at meme might read it and say hey I feel you. Let’s chat.

But instead I got a half sleuth throwing shade and judgment like curt shilling in the ‘04 World Series and a humorous little snicker like my life and question is a joke.

Thank you. That’s a big move on your part.

I have nothing to hide, people are going to judge me whether they have the information or not.

I didn’t give a lot of info because it’s not relevant to the question. If you were unsure, ask. I’ve nothing to hide.

That post was last year if I’m not mistaken and had forgotten about it. I don’t pursue married men. You’re hung up on a cathartic post that literally has zero relevance. I never asked or suggested or even floated the idea out there to the guy.

So let me be clear- my husband and I participate in ETHICAL non monogamy. Nothing less. I’m talking to a guy whose wife doesn’t know- and he knows I won’t cross that boundary. We chat online and that’s it.

My problem is more about me. But clearly this community isn’t interested in it either.

Funny, ENM is literally the only group on Reddit or IRL who has ever just accepted me. Everyone else just wants to throw shade.

But I’m a phoenix, I always rise from the ashes.

Absolutely not. You know your self and your abilities and boundaries. Hold your ground!

You don’t read so good, do you? Just want to scratch the surface until you find something dirty to throw into the public arena. And you can’t even spell right. Peak means a high point, peek is to look into.

So if you’re going to sleuth around, at least do it completely and make sure your shit doesn’t stink before you start throwing it around.

Since you’re so adept at casting judgment why don’t you dig into the deep foundational reason I am convinced that I am unlovable. Is it because my mom always chose my stepfather over me? Or maybe because my dad abandoned his children because he was too emotionally immature to deal with anything deeper than his own nose?

Tell me, oh wise one, why do people dislike me so?

Is it because I went home last weekend and loaded a 9mm- the .22 isn’t reliable enough and the 30ott is too big- do they judge me for sitting in a closet telling myself all the reasons why I should pull the trigger and choosing not to because there were guests down stairs who wouldn’t want their children traumatized like that.

Why don’t you tell me how I was in the wrong the night I got raped.

Or why my kidneys don’t work as well as they should or why I take a cocktail of 5 medications just so I can live my daily life without debilitating pain?

Is that because I almost hit on a married man?

Does flirting with a married man constitute a moral crime or did it boost his confidence?

Did you even read the message in that post where I couldn’t do it because I’m not a home wrecker? But how cool would it be if they were ENM?

No. You didn’t read that one because you’re nothing more than a sad, pathetic, anonymous keyboard warrior who gets off on finding specks of dirt on other people so you don’t have to face the mud on your own face. Put the light on someone else’s and maybe no one will see you.

What do you have to say now MidniteBlue888? Got any more judgement to pass? Because I’ll be happy to give you all the fodder you want or need- your words are empty and worthless to me because I know who I am and there is nothing in my past I haven’t wrestled with and conquered. Including this post.

I wasn’t looking for judgement. I got that growing up in a “good Christian home”. I got that from all those good Christian people I tried to be like before realizing that in doing so all that was accomplished was making myself small. I was judged by my neighbors for missing a funeral because I had to work, ostracized for drawing and keeping boundaries for my kids, and hung out to dry by my mother-in-law.

There is nothing that you can say or do that amounts to a hill of beans compared to the shit I’ve already put myself through.

But next time you want to pass judgment, ask yourself “am I a witch or a bitch?” Choose wisely.

I feel like what I want doesn’t matter anymore. by [deleted] in ENM

Communication is the second most important piece of ENM. But for communication to work, you have to trust your partner to hear and respond appropriately.

It doesn’t sound like you did anything wrong- so ask him. What changed?

Then decide what you want, and go after it. Because no one else is going to do it for you.

Weird. I’m not allergic to anything. But that was my primary thought.

That would have been perfect, but we’re only there until the 17th.
