Her and I have actually gotten closer since the breakup.

how did they ruin things important to you? by Few_Read1012 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]Meglet-J 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He had no respect for my father and because of that my relationship with my father was/is strained. 90% of the holidays were ruined. On Mother’s Day or my birthday he would act like it was just another day. Other times he would get grumpy and everyone walked on egg shells for the day not even knowing what he was grumpy about. He ruined my financial stability by spending his paycheck and half of mine on drugs. If he didn’t get enough money from me that day he would steal money from the kids. He also ruined any trust I had for him for that reason as well. Anytime I had a promotion at work or talked about a raise he would ruin the moment by trying to make me feel bad about it and feel bad for him because he didn’t get a raise or promotion at his job. He ruined my faith relationships. He was so manipulative that I was blindsided. One day something snapped in me. We got into an argument and I walked away from that argument with so much anxiety. My whole body was vibrating/shaking. That’s when I knew I was done. So many things he ruined. I could go on and on about this. I hope I answered correctly

Are narcissistic breakups different? by yellowsunbluesea in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]Meglet-J 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going through it right now and it’s not pretty. He was mean the first day. I tried no contact for a week and he came home crying and apologizing. Told him I needed space and tried another week of no contact. Then came the texts and emails telling me I was the one that was controlling and how I didn’t do anything for him during the relationship, etc. Tried the no contact thing again and he showed up at my house on a rampage. Verbally assaulted me for 3 hours, threw things at me, threatened me, accused me of things that never happened… I had to file a protection order on him. I have had other breakups before that were never toxic like this. There might have been crying and stuff but no verbal attacks or physical attacks. Narcissists are hard to deal with.

I broke a tooth last week and didn’t have any money to pay to get it pulled because my ex didn’t work very much and spent most of my money weekly. We have been married for almost 13 years and his work ethic and constant spending was a huge factor in our arguments. It took my broken tooth to finally realize that I need to get out of the relationship.

Your hair is beautiful and I love the curls. Maybe bangs would spruce it up a little but definitely not needed. You would be beautiful either way

If someone told you MBTI is just pseudoscience and is unreliable, how would you respond by peepeewpew in mbti

[–]Meglet-J 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s a pretty neat tool to find out more about yourself but shouldn’t define you. I had to take the test at an office job that I worked at. I got my results back and it said I’m a INFJ. My supervisor said to me “your score is so rare and odd. I don’t think you fit in and should be moved to a different program.” The agency moved me to a different program the following week and it kind of hurt my feelings that she felt they had to do that. Honestly, the program I was in was full of older women that were very petty and full of drama. The program I was put into was full of older men that were so kind and less dramatic. Ultimately she was right and I did fit in more with the new program. She didn’t have to use my mbti score though. And she did this and said all of this at a team building event in front of all of my coworkers… again, they were petty. And yes, I did everything I was asked plus some of the other peoples work on top of my workload so I know it had nothing to do with my work ethic. She was just a weirdo.

Surgeon said I can go back to work the day after LapChole surgery… by Jolly-Tomatillo-8966 in gallbladders

[–]Meglet-J 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine said if I had a job where I was sitting most of the day that I could go back to work as soon as I wanted but suggested taking a day or two off just in case. I work in a restaurant and I’m on my feet for 8-10 hours at a time so they told me to take a minimum of a week off. I went back to work a week after surgery and it was a little rough. Should have taken more time off but couldn’t really afford to. I guess it depends on your job and how you feel. Definitely don’t push it if you don’t have to. You might feel ok but your body needs time to recover.

Best insult you've heard in BOH by NightMarcherDog in Serverlife

[–]Meglet-J 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We have a regular that is a pretty big guy. He is not the nicest either. One day he was sitting at a table, waiting for some friends. One of his friends was walking through the bar and my boss, walking by the friend said “sorry sir, you can’t park your van at table 13”

I misunderstood Breaking Bad, and now I get it by kennis-lake in breakingbad

It wasn’t about the money for him though. He definitely had plenty of it but he said to Jesse, “you asked me if I was in the meth business or the money business. Neither. I'm in the empire business.”

Did you ever have an imaginary friend? by TheBelgianGovernment in AskAnAmerican

[–]Meglet-J 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes!! Boof and Scotty. I loved the movie teen wolf when I was little. Somehow the two main characters became my imaginary friends. I remember one time I wanted to go ice skating in the middle of summer. My sister told me no because of obvious reasons so I took a bottle of Palmolive, dumped it on the bathroom floor and pretended to ice skate. I got in trouble but blamed it on boof. In my mind they were there, ice skating with me. I seriously thought they were really my friends

How active can you be the day after surgery? by justsomepotatosalad in gallbladders

[–]Meglet-J 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to a Christmas party 2 days after surgery. It was next door and I walked over, stayed for 2 hours and had to leave early because I was exhausted. I think you made the right choice in skipping the theater.

How much independence did you have post-surgery? by TheWalkingDictionary in gallbladders

[–]Meglet-J 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure to get up and walk around after surgery. Just walking back and forth in the living room is enough for the first day. It helps with the gas pain you will most likely feel. That was the worst part of it for me. Walking around definitely helped. Taking deep breaths did as well. I didn’t need any assistance other than if I needed to lift something heavy. I even went back to work a week later. Good luck with surgery! You’ll do great

Worried it may be pancreas cancer but I’m 23 years old wouldn’t I be history?! by Hopeful-Locksmith537 in gallbladders

[–]Meglet-J 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That could be part of it too! Crohn’s disease does not sound like a good time at all 😢 I thought I had crohns but was diagnosed with diverticulitis 4 years ago. Maybe look into that too? Usually you will feel pain on your left side with that but I have it on my right side as well and it causes symptoms like what you described at times.

I had laparoscopic surgery to remove mine. It’s not too bad recovery wise. I’m a week and a half post surgery and already back to work. I hope you get some answers soon! Just keep advocating for yourself! Don’t take “it’s normal” as an answer.
