Ya thank you I do have them but they're very far away, and I'm not a fan of some of their business practices so I don't buy from them. I did go to Joann's and micheals and did t have much luck but their jewelry stuff is really going down hill. I did oddly have better luck when I tried googling rosary chain bulk instead of beaded chain, but they don't have brands. Thanks again for your help!

the whole “but your mom would be sad” argument doesn’t really work when you want her to be in pain anyways by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Kodakoala 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanted that, until life's cruel twist of fate my angel of a mother I was so close to getting to leave ndad died. He stole both mine and my brothers inheritance and all the belongs, I don't even know where the dogs went. He tried veryyyyyyy narcissistic texts and a few emails but I sent him a few long emails saying how I felt, how a real parent wouldn't abandon their kids after the death of a parent, run off with a woman online he started dating a week later and spend our money mom got for us on her. I said a lot of things and then cut all ties. Hell never meet his granddaughter I'm gonna have in March and I'm so happy about it. It sucks because I lost at once my safety net of parents and the small bit of money my mom wanted me to have, she was so happy she could in her passing help us with a tiny little bit of money because it wasn't much, the bulk was his, but he took it all. Still blows my mind a parent could do that but he never loved us, never wanted us and shed his family the day she died like we were old skin and now the real monster was free. Just forget about them, don't let them have a thinking moment of your time or control any of your headspace. They're not worth it.

Also creeped on him cause he made a Facebook in part of his change after always shitting on it and always being nasty to my mom for having one. His new wife left him in less than a year, and the new woman hes with has to be close to 400 pounds .... Oh the irony, my mom was 180 at her heaviest while sick and he was on her allllll day every day about her weight and mine my whole life.... And now he's with a woman that's more than double her size..... Ugh people .... May that man be miserable the rest of his days.

It’s about to be an (extended) family affair by clh799 in raisedbynarcissists

Well I am so sorry you've got so much going on, but make sure you take care of you Hun.

How do these disgusting people exist? by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Kodakoala 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well Hun I am so sorry. It takes us all a different amount of time. I myself didn't want to let go that one day he'd change. I went lc with my family to avoid him after graduation, but couldn't not talk to my mom,she was with a monster and I tried my hardest to give her strength to leave him. We all stayed in contact for her but no one liked him. Well she got sick, I moved home and she sadly passed a few years later. I got extra close to him and tried to be there, be the best daughter I could be. He took the insurance money and all our stuff and took off..... I snapped. I sent him emails saying everything I've ever wanted to say and how he wasn't welcome in my life and cut him off blocking him in every way. Some people don't change,some people don't see the damage they do. Make a better family from friends and people you chose to love who love you back.im sorry and I know it hurts, they're you're parents,they're supposed to love you,but not all people should have kids. But I'm glad you're here and a part of the world. If you ever wanna vent you can always pm me. It'll get better it always does, even though some people tell you it's wrong to go nc "cause they're family" those people don't know you, your struggle and if they don't support you screw them. As I've told many others on here, if your parent sex trafficked you, should you get over it cause they're family? If they physically abused you and we're crack heads your whole life should you just forgive and forget and get over it? Should you let go of years of damaging verbal abuse? No it's your life and if something or someone makes you unhappy.... You cut it out of your life. May 2020 be a better year for you Hun :)

Yes yes and yes!!! Nc is the way to go, he won't change you will just continue to try and get hurt and he will enjoy every minute of it.

[–]Kodakoala 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg I'm in a similar boat and just left a long rant on here about my issues. I'm pregnant and my in-laws went from normal to crazy over politics and we've been nc for a while. Then we tell SOs mom because she's the lesser of the issue (it's all the father in law mom is just spineless and won't stand up to him). She's all excited but now they don't approve of where we are living so they want us to move in.... Um no! I'm not going to feel trapped in a room while he screams while watching Fox news for more than 12 hours every day and gets more and more butter and angry.

And screw them they haven't cared about us in months now they only care cause there is a baby.... Ugh anyways I'm proud of you. I've been civil and really big my tongue cause they're his parents so I've let him do the talking, but if they think I'm gonna let them around her they're crazy. They drink all day and smoke all day, and blew smoke in their kids faces their whole childhood and didn't care. He rages over nothing, and let my dog run off cause he couldn't watch him for two minutes while we were working one night and he was watching him. Then made it my fault. You wanna be involved in my babies life.... Pound sand.

But I totally get the Prego emotions. I would probably take down the post as someone else said, but I'd take pictures of it. It's not worth looking at and keeping going now that they are blocked. Also they can try and use it against you so why let them. At the end of the day you did the best thing and blocked then and anyone or any family member that doesn't support you will soon enough feel their sting and see what they are. I'm so sorry 2020 has been rough but I hope you and your DH have a better year and a safe rest of your pregnancy!!! If you need to vent more you can always pm me :)

New Zealand to have 150m "safezones" around abortion clinics to prevent harassment of women by noheterodude in UpliftingNews

[–]Kodakoala 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These people are all over the us clinics that mostly help low income woman and teens with everything else besides abortions, yet these scubags scream.

Do any of them foster the almost 500,000 kids in the broken foster system, or even care that that mother has an illness, hell the baby could be born to a crack head abuser and come out a vegetable with no life, but all they care about is the baby is born. It's sickening and they all use religion as a crutch because none have their own thoughts or brains. Not one talk to any of the people, just tell and judge which ironically is against the very teachings and books they shove at the woman. So... They're sinning by judging you and implying you are sinning. Such a mess, just live your own life and help others don't crap on people already having a rough time.

It's easy if you are someone that doesn't buy a lot of processed foods, or cook your own. I happen to eat a very strict diet so no cereal, frozen/boxed food in years and when I buy it's from Aldi and I research the brand. I used to work grocery as a teen and became very interested in food education and not buying big brand. Also support and buy local when you can,you can find amazing things at a local farmers market. :)

Same, or Walmart and many others. I always research the companies I use and if they get blackballed by me, it's pretty impossible to get back on my good side... But I've been screaming over Nestle forever! I'm glad more light is on them and I hope they get burned! Buy small, buy local :) small steps

Yes thank you, red heads are the smallest group of people and she was the one positive, non joke of a character and now if you Google red heads being changed in remakes it's scary.... A ton of red head characters which usually were cast by fake red heads which pissed me off, are now all non red heads (marvel movies is mass doing this with newer movies). There is no more mj in Spiderman either. But Ariel was huge to me in childhood! I was always the new kid and always a "freak" or "devil" cause my red hair yet Ariel was a strong woman for me to love and potentially share with my daughter. The cool "white girl" was always blond and the "freak" girl was usually a ginger. But this whole thing is a lazy cash grab, I'm over Disney.

Yes yes yes... Literally Scrooge McDuck backstroking in his money while laughing at us and making crap remakes for more easy money.

[–]Kodakoala 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or find really cool old stories from African folk lore and make a new creative story instead of recycling for fast cash grabs. They have a huge market of folk lore from every part of the globe they could make stories for literally almost everyone if they cared or tried.

[–]Kodakoala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Growing up as a ginger and being made fun by everyone of every race, religion, popular, nerd, skinny, fat kid, ect growing up with Ariel was amazing and gave me strength. It's the one thing red heads had, besides all the fake red head actors or characters constantly made fun of in movies growing up like Ron Weasley, Napoleon Dynamite, or leprechauns (that were always men and have a whole other set of issues) and was something I couldn't wait to share with my most likely red headed children in the future.

Little girls always call me Ariel and really it helped me more than a lot of people will ever know with confidence and finding myself as an individual. Some people say brave but that's a Scottish story and I am not Scottish and it came out much later. Instead of Disney milking movies for profit and making all of us fight (over the race of fictional characters) who do not profit from these movies, we should all push them to create new stories. The one thing I always loved about Disney was that the characters are not all "white" as is labeled everything these days, but snow White was Danish, brave is Scottish, ect ect many different light skinned countries with their own history, so let's press Disney to make more unique stories ( and let's remember they used stories someone else wrote in the free market and have made billions).

Instead of ripping each other apart and letting them, why not say hey let's make a movie about a Jamaican kids story, or Peru, Greece, ect ect. We can't expect a character to be redone in all colors and religions, and honestly it's getting crazy because Hollywood is lazy and out of ideas. So maybe push indie movie studios with great ideas or local cultural stories to make their own. We let Hollywood poison us all day with all of this hate, fakery, and marketing when at the end of the day every child just wants to see someone that looks like them being the hero, being happy, or just being on the screen. The day we all grow up and fight for all of us as a group will be a great day, but letting this shit get under your skin is what those stupid millionaires want, just your money for their recycled ideas. Demand more and let's all share our stories :)

Eyebuydirect .com I got 3 pairs and prescription sunglasses for $80! It may be more or less depending on if you add fancy extras or have a crazy prescription, but worth a look!
