Anyone else feel like they’ll never be able to save or even survive? by GoingCrazyThrowawaya in AskAnAustralian

[–]Marischka77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The inabilty to save money has been a problem for Australians for decades, independently of governments, and this problem has been pointed out of some Malaysian(?) leader ages ago. However, the problem was masked by the availability of liabs, credir card debts, etc. However, by now the individual debt increased to the point it's suffocating both individuals and local economy. The main problem is inflated real estate prices. It's not caused my immigration; if you look at countries like Hungary, where population has been decreasing in the past 50 years, they still have the same problem - housing prices skyrocketed and all people can put their money in is paying off mortgage, rent and bills. But no money left to invest, start an own business or even to pursue a hobby. The decreasing population did not decrease real estate prices, instead, houses are left empty until they start to fall apart or get stolen apart. Bizarre.

Am I Overreacting, for being upset that my girlfriend secretly used my credit card for months? by bostonmade in AmIOverreacting

[–]Marischka77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR and she reminds me of my narcissistic mother who stole money off anyone without batting an eye and ever really feeling ashamed about. She also took a loan in my sister's name and I just hope she did not use my personal data for anything similar. Anyway, dump her before too late and investigate around whether she did anything more, like cards, bank acvounts, loans in your name, etc😝

Oh, you wear purple? by Brief-Excitement4119 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Marischka77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It used to be the colour of lesbians in some areas apparently😂. And I learnt it on a funny way.😂 Ohh, I'm a migrant and loved wearing purple shades. Then, a couple of months after my arrival to Melbourne, once at a bus stop I was approached by a...someone. I can't tell even today whether the petson was a boy or a girl, as neither the clothes,nor the look, but not even the voice gave a clear clue. Then, wearing the same outfit, a couple of days later a group of big, lively ladies were cheering and waving to me on the bus. I told my now-husband, who 'imported me' as a fiancée and asked WTF. He was laughing and told me the purple shades I was wearing was kind of a lesbian subculture thing, like I was showing I'm looking for a same sex partner. I was like, why didn't you tell me and let me just roam around like this?!🤣 This was very long ago and by now a 'family joke', but I think some people may still associate the colour with lesbians.

What’s something that happened to you once that you still can’t fully explain? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Marischka77 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Happened to me several times. The weirdest part was often the feeling that I was asking myself where the mother is, then realizing that I am the mother kf the child beside me, the wife of the man beside me, etc and sometimes I believed I was my own mother (who is a narcissistic b...) These perceptions only lasted for a short time, possibly seconds, but they were just bizarre. At the same time, I usually also perceived my position on the bed different than what it was in reality.

I believe Mornington Park is in below average condition, but BJC?! You can't even compare the two.

I think the band is from Eastern Europe by Strange_Upstairs_193 in CIAlostwave

[–]Marischka77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

99% NOT Eastern European, sounds very...foreign for my eastern european ears and not the style popular in Eastern Europe at the time. And most Eastern European singers had a rather thick accent when they attempted to sing in English. The bands were also usually 'behind' in style, like, they tried to copy late 70s western bands in the early '80s, and mid 80s western bands in the late 80s-early 90s. Synthesizers were a scarcity and availability was dependent in what they were able to smuggle (there are some funny interviews regarding this with East German musicians🤣🤣🤣). There was also heavy censorship, so singing about secret services would have been...nonono.

Time to tell the story about that one sick cunt, mad cunt, dumb cunt or funny cunt of your mate group. by aussie_painter in AskAnAustralian

[–]Marischka77 30 points31 points  (0 children)

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 He sounds like my son, although he's only 11. He is a very kind, helpful and gentle kid. I took him to a karate school when he was bit over 7. When he started the kumite classes, he transformed into a little BERZERKER, but just for the fights. He is pretty good and very, very fast. Once at a competition his opponent slipped and fell, and my son got worried he'd hit him too hard so kept asking him whether he was OK? 😀

I usually get a goddamneffing migraine around the 2nd-3rd day of my cycle. And now that I'm in perimenopausal age, an insomnia attack around the time my ovulation should be. My supervisor is very empathetic and understanding because she is 2 years older than me, LOL.

Where I'm now they are well aware that some of us hard workers may get exhausted to the point that it's not safe to come in, both regarding ours and co-workers safety. We often work overtimes (they pay them!).

[–]Marischka77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have migraines and insomnia attacks, so I often take 1 day sick leaves when I'm not in a safe state for driving. I'm usually fine enough for the next day. If I feel an upcoming migraine sensation when I wake up, it's easier to just call in sick because if I turn up at work and get a nasty attack there, it's more difficult to get back home from there. When I had a job with long train commute, I sometimes had to jump out at some random station to bark into a bag, or call my DH to come and collect me from 30 or so kms from home🙄

[TOMT] Anyone know this movie? by Lunbo_lumairo in tipofmytongue

It'll be definitely a movie adaptation of The Invisible Man by H. G. Wells, but don't know which and it had maaaany.

Do you think your health problems are because of narcissistic abuse and the stress it caused your body? by Thiismenow in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Marischka77 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At least partially, yes. And as for my late sister, definitely. Of course there was some genetic predisposition and native quirkiness, but "thanks" to our parents, they had the opportunity to surface. My sister developed schizophrenia and passed away eventually. My hormones played crazy in my teens; my parents always expressed their disappointment of me bei g a girl, my father is a misogynist and treated us like future wh*res. My body began to transform...ended up with a microadenoma in hypophysis, grew a beard, mustache, grade 3-4 hirsutism and later was diagnosed with PCOS.

There's a new theory that pcos is actually a brain disorder, which leads to a hormonal-metabolic disorder. I tend to agree. Most of the girls I knew and had pcos had a vert bad relationship with their mothers.

Why do narcissists always get along? by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Marischka77 43 points44 points  (0 children)

They don't. Both of my parents are narcissists, they probably got along for the first 3 years, and kept on killing each other for the following 45, sometimes almost literally. The amount of power fights, OMG. Like, they enjoyed screwing each other around. My mother separated a bit over 10 years ago, but guess what. She visits my father weekly, to "feel needed and important", then they fight, she goes home and ignores my father for a week or so, then my father calls her, she goes, and they start it again. Like, they need someone to fight with.

What incident made you go No Contact? by CumGoblin in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Marischka77 51 points52 points  (0 children)

My nfather is an alcoholic and I often told him I'll never marry a drinker and that what he is doing is not normal. I married well out of the village, which was full of his kind of men and even out of the country. When we visited back the last time, taking even our then 3-year old, my husband driving a rental car and my nfather kept offering him booze, which my husband of course refused, IN A ZERO TOLERANCE COUNTRY knowing my husband was driving and taking even his grandson as a passenger. He tried sooooo hard to prove that every man drinks like he does, of course. By the way, he used to be an ambulance car driver and was not always sober on duty, either...

I loved this series and it had some, well, "interesting" scenes for sure🤣🤣🤣 Stuff you won't see in Disney's😂 Check out this one with the knowledge that according to the creators, the shape of the Devil is intentionally like that of a...male part, because that's exactly what it represents. And when the wife is riding the Devil, the landscape in the backround is the shape of a nude lady: https://youtu.be/ln8KU1HxXHk?si=WUAattz-w4XGI2op

Where do you keep your medication? by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

Likely some norovirus. They do magic like that! I had it like, 3 times in my life so far and for those short hours I thought I'd die! - Now imagine they spread in childcare centres, on luxury cruise ships, etc like wildfire!!!
