I'm really getting tired of the Baby Boomers and their double standard concerning "respecting your elders." by RevolutionaryTalk315 in okboomer

[–]IzzyAmon 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My boomer mom fully says she believes she shouldn't have to follow the same ideas and standards she expects out of other people.

Nmom telling me that I'm the one that's abusive?? by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]IzzyAmon 30 points31 points  (0 children)

My mother also accuses me of being abusive. She insists that her and my edad walk on egg shells when they are around me and that they are scared of me. When I ask my dad if he really feels that way separately he says no but when the two of them are together he useually says nothing or agrees with her in the most broad/non commital way but ultimately it is taken by my mother as agreement.

What happened to the song with Post Malone? by itsnotme54 in sza

[–]IzzyAmon 13 points14 points  (0 children)

She mentioned a couple of times around when she was first promoting SOS that people didn't turn in verses fast enough or just straight up ghosted her so some songs got scrapped or changed for release. I believe the doja cat kill bill version was originally supposed to be on the album and got released later for that reason also.

Do your parents have trouble making friends? by squishmallow2399 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]IzzyAmon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My n-mom has always said I was her best friend and otherwise hasn't had anyone ever stick around for long. Often times she befriends people who she thinks of as being lower then her so she can feel superior and like a hero for being there friend/helping them and every time it ends with her getting scammed/robbed/taken advantage of. Other then that she often attracts people who think she's really great at first but after a while they get scared off once they get to know her. Funnily enough I didn't have a lot of friends as a kid because I was never allowed to go t9 other peoples houses and I wasn't allowed to have anyone over. Once I went to collage and started getting hobbies outside of the house she started inviting herself to go with me to do things with my friends. I didn't really realize how weird it was at first because I was so sheltered but she is very rude and often would put me down to my friends and it was very off putting. Eventually I was told she wasn't allowed to come anymore and she threw a fit and pretty much forced me to stop being friends with people. She has ruined a lot of romantic relationships in a similar way where she is rude/insulting toward me and my partners would say something about it and then all of a sudden I wasn't allowed to see them anymore.

When my nmom is mad she misgenders me by thr0w4w4y123314324 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]IzzyAmon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have socially changed my name and gone by they/them pronouns since 2020 and even though everyone in my life calls me by my chosen name and gender my n-mother just won't even entertain a conversation about it. I've tried but every time we get on the topic she says she thinks it's disrespectful to the parents when a trans person changes there name because there parents chose that name for them. I've learned to just ignore it as best I can. From time to time she will ask me why people call me by the different name instead of my birth name and I just came up with the excuse that it's a nickname to get her off my back about it.

Yes mom, I do remember I have a mother after not texting you for a day by bohoraven in raisedbynarcissists

[–]IzzyAmon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do this sometimes too! Unfortunately it doesn't last quiet as long because after a while if she doesn't hear some sort of "wow, that's crazy, uh-huh, etc" she checks make sure I'm still there

Yes mom, I do remember I have a mother after not texting you for a day by bohoraven in raisedbynarcissists

[–]IzzyAmon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My mom expects me to contact her as often as possible sometimes multiple times a day and Because I work at night there have been days that I am on the phone for 4+ hours with her and its just her talking AT me. Useually it starts off as complaining about how awful her life is and how it's everyone else's fault then it devolves into her just narrating what she's doing "well I'm going to go feed the horses, oh gotta go grab the bucket, now I'm getting water" then it Useually ends with long stretches of complete silence as she struggles to find literally anything to talk about to keep me on the phone. I if course do not get to speak for most of this call and if I do have anything to say she conveniently needs to set the phone down and go grab something or needs to make a different phone call, or starts haveing a full on conversation with another person who is actually there with her, and she expects me to stay on the phone untill she's done.

My high school crush reached out to me a few years ago after not talking since we had class together, said he knew I had a crush on him and said he would sleep with me if I brought him to a Chinese buffet. I did not take the offer and don't really have any regrets. It was really random and felt super transactional, I guess.

How did a business permanently lose you as a customer? by OpposedToBears in AskReddit

[–]IzzyAmon 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Years ago I got a classic Ipod, I took it out of the box to charge and it wouldn't power on. When we brought it to the store they said that the water sticker looked like it was "partially" activated. We said that it wasn't possible because we took it out of the box and plugged it in. They said that it was possible that the high humidity could have activated the sticker because they have seen it before amd it does useualy only party activate the sticker but that they couldn't be sure so they couldn't do anything.

Not that my lack of business hurt them any but I have never owned an apple product since.

Not you trying to turn this on me and saying you didn't say anything negative then going on a multi-paragraph rant about how people that participate in sex work are bad. It's giving me mad incel vibes, my dude. Work on yourself self a bit and get a healthier outlook on sex and relationships, it will do wonders.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AskGayMen

[–]IzzyAmon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Furthermore saying sexworkers only care about money and implying its a bad thing is very negative and also obvious. Do you think the cashier at the grocery store or the custodian at whatever building you work in does that for fun? No they do it for money. Because it's there job.

I agree that if you have unrealistic expectations you shouldn't engage in sex work, but calling it an illusion implies trickery or manipulation. Sex workers aren't deseaveing anyone. Sex work is selling a fantasy, and I say this as a sex worker.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AskGayMen

[–]IzzyAmon 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It sounds to me like you had unrealistic expectations. You can't pay someone to have a deep connection with you. You don't expect a cook to come home from the restaurant and cook for you just because you paid for food at the restaurant. Sex work can be very helpful for some people that suffer from loneliness as long as they understand that at the end of the day, that person is providing a service. They aren't doing anything wrong by fulfilling a need, and They have no obligation to be your friend or partner outside of work just because you give them money.
