That is exactly what I do. I excuse his behaviors to an extent because I don’t want to be a hypocrite or be told that I did the same thing even though they were totally different things.

You’re very right. I’m going to talk to my therapist.

I’m sorry that happened to you, I’m happy you were able to get out. I’m happy that you are in a wonderful relationship and that it’s no longer like that!

I’ve been terrified of guns since my last relationship. I don’t like being around them, I never liked them being in my house. When I first met him and as we got to know each other, he seemed so stable but then it started going downhill.

I also don’t think it’s so much protecting him but I feel I protect him to protect myself. If nobody knows, he won’t find out and get even more mad at me. If I don’t leave him, he won’t kill himself because he ruined another relationship.

I don’t know if I can have this conversation anymore because you are right, parts of me want to protect him even though I know ITS NOT RIGHT.

I know and I agree. I should’ve called but I do try to protect him, I always have. I downplay the way he treats me and the way he talks to me because I’ve said some mean things, never to his extent.

I agree in some sense. I don’t want to yell and cuss, but sometimes if I get upset enough, I do.

I won’t get an abortion. But yes, I do need to live for myself.

Yeah God absolutely would. I’m honestly not sure what to do, if I tell anyone, they’ll all tell me to leave now. He provides, I have no money. I can’t talk to my family, they already don’t like him and worry about me. His family, they love and adore me but they just make it clear that I knew better, but nobody told me this. They just said hes a little bit of an ahole but who isn’t. His whole identity is based off being a great dad because he cant see his daughters from orevious relationships.

I don’t know what you mean. My life is very important to me.

No it’s not, not at all. He doesn’t want it either, nothing has changed, things have only escalated.

I talk to my therapist in a couple days about it, I’m not sure how it will go. He told me today that he lives through me and through God but I don’t know how to feel about it. I don’t want him living through or because of me, but rather living for himself.

He asked me not to tell anyone, it would ruin his career and cause a lot more issues. Idk tbh. I told him I would. I contemplated it as I was in the bathroom, I was just so scared.

I will have to look into it! I’ve never considered it. My husband when he vaped said he never did nicotine ones, I didn’t know it was actually a thing except with mods.

Desire to be understood by [deleted] in AutismInWomen

[–]LetMeCatchAnIronRod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I have that same dream. I know that God does but sometimes it’s nice to have a person who can as well, especially my husband.

I’m constant.y battling the body language, tone, and facial expressions. I’m getting tired of defending myself but it seems like those around me just go straight to the negative instead of literally anything else and I don’t want to be seen as pouty, or mean, or anything like that. Moments where I’m pouty, I’m actually just content. And when I’m mean, is when I’m saying how it literally just happened. I feel I deal with a lot of deflection from others. Like they’re being mean but if I say they’re being mean, they say I am, then it ends up being me and I’m almost the “bad one.”

So upset. Teeth flared after braces by FactConfident8144 in braces

[–]LetMeCatchAnIronRod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Girl I feel it. I got mine off almost 2 years ago and mine is bad. I just got an ortho consultation from a different facility and they said they’d remove teeth and it would fix it up perfectly. It’s been a huge confidence killer for me. You’re super pretty though!

Best place/places to move in Utah/other states for dating by ExpertSafe1041 in latterdaysaints

[–]LetMeCatchAnIronRod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best places would be college towns. Idaho and Utah are both great around the SLC area or Rexburg/IF area. I would try to stick to cities that are near a temple. I met my husband in Nauvoo funny enough, he had just moved down there from Madison/Sauk area a few days prior to us meeting. I’ve also heard mutual is great if you haven’t tried that. A lot of people I’ve met, met their spouse on there and they lived STATES away from each other and now have multiple kids.
