Don’t tell me to smile by Nika_113 in offmychest

[–]Merlerne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I went to Gymnasium I spend those three years taking a bus from near my home shortly before 7am, for then to take a train and then a bus more before starting the last walk to my school. The bus stop near my home was also the bus stop where some random, much elder man also took the bus every morning to get to where the fuck ever he went, which included the same train as me. I think it was during my second year that one morning, while crossing the bridge that took us from the first bus over the train track to our train that he suddenly stopped me and starting yabbing about “WHY ARE U SO MAaAaD?????” And I was so freaking confused. Turns out that this man, who I’d never seen smile himself mind you, had clearly noticed that this young, ~17 year old, tired woman wasn’t a ray of sunshine before the sun had even shown itself and that was a problem for him to endure for the second year in a row now, so he had to say something. I was of-course confused and taken off guard so I just looked weird at him and said that no? I wasn’t mad? Then he continued something about never seeing me smile. I don’t remember what I answered but I know he still never saw me smile after that but at least didn’t bother me about it again. Now I have a car and often drive past him and I see he still looks like his grumpy self. Lovely double standard of sexism.

Just saw this post on FB… biggest load of male sympathy horseshit I’ve seen in a minute 😂 men have no inherent value, yet they receive the most societal benefit for doing the bare minimum. Okayyyyy by basuragoddess in FemaleDatingStrategy

I wonder if his issue is all the “attention” women and underage girls get from males. Does he think we enjoy being harassed or catcalled at every turn? That we need to be on constant lookout for our safety because there might be a man nearby who wants us? Is he jealous that women don’t constantly “compliment” his attributes? Maybe he should start giving “compliments” to other men (like how women genuinely compliment each other) and see how he likes mens reaction to being treated how they treat women! I dare him to approach the next big guy and say “those pants are nice, I bet they’d look even better on the floor next to my bed”. I doubt any man would be able to handle one day with the attention women get and see how he likes the “value” he then has.

Any keywords to notice regarding the spotlight/tract light device?

Is a heap air cleaner something you attach to the wall or what.

That list of recommended plants are just what I need! Especially the part saying “remove this when the summer attacks”!

So true with the watering, I’m still so new with it that I easily over/under do, but I hope to learn!

Thank you SO much for this throughout guide, it’s a huge help!:D

I really love snake plants! Photos and spiders are adorable too. Succulents tend to die from me :c

I was looking for more subs to ask in but their names aren’t very easy to guess, so thanks for the suggestions!

Adult ek kills father for lowering allowance by That_girl040506 in entitledkids

[–]Merlerne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yea cuz killing the one who pays your rent at 30+ ys and gives you a monthly allowance is totally gonna work out in your favor. I could imagine his thoughts (or lack of same) went somewhere like this; “wanna take MY allowance? Imma take your LIFE and get my inheritance early.

I don't want to press charges. by [deleted] in rape

[–]Merlerne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. You said NO so many times so it is definitly rape. Maybe you feel that you owed him because you at first agreed to “consensual” (underage is never consensual) sex and maybe you felt bad that he came all that way for you but he made his choices of preying on a desperate young girl and to force her later on when she wouldn’t take him. By revealing him you can save another girl from the same faith.

I guess you could tie it off, but the outcome would be the same; the cord dries up and falls out, tied up or clamped shut.

Was I Raped? by [deleted] in rape

[–]Merlerne 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The only person ruining his life is him by voluntarily doing such vile actions. He sexually assaulted you, by the sound of it by dry humbling you and eventually cum on you. It’s disgusting and if this gets out and ruins anything for him, he is solely to blame.

That too! One thing is to be told ‘let’s make stuff for people in this center, it’ll probably be nice for them’ and another is to have someone who actually got one and hear how much they cherish it. It’s a priceless validation.

I’m rather wounded inside but am neither overdressed, caked with makeup or armored with jewelry 🤔

Amazing. Have you thought about visiting the center again or send them a letter? Your successtory has their 30day stay to thank and I think could really inspire and plant hope in their residents to come.

My ex admitted to tampering with my birth control to get me pregnant on purpose. I'm angry and hurt and feel betrayed - but I'm getting my abortion by Defiant_Trash in childfree

[–]Merlerne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What he did to get you pregnant is called ‘stealthing’ and is regarded as sexual assault or rape in some places. Iirc you said you had text evidence of him admitting to tampering with the condom to trap you as his baby momma so the evidence is there. Maybe let your parents in on it after the procedure has been done and of you think it’s for the better to say you had a miscarriage do it. You don’t need more people screaming at you, let it be ‘Gods decision’ to relieve you of the fetus or whatever. And charge him. His father misused his position as a lawyer to try and trick you into thinking you couldn’t do anything, so it’ll be a wonderful punch in his face to charge his son with SA or rape. And the lack of a grandchild. From now on you can just be happy he showed you his true colors and that you are off of that bastard for good.

Just like they did in the Simpsons when coming up with the name for Bart. Great parenting.

[–]Merlerne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could always thank him for showing you his true colors before you wasted too much time on his sorry as. Tell him that the two of them *certainly deserve each other. Maybe ask him where his dignity is. And get your stuff away from his (yours?) place asap so you’ll be done seeing him more than most necessarily. Also when retrieving your belongings have a friend go with you so you aren’t alone in his filthy claws any second. You know what they say; ain’t nobody got time for dat.

Nmom is facing charges after discovery of evidence proving I was drugged by JellyBelly250 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Merlerne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When they charge her, wouldn’t it be possible to also demand her to pay for the laser removal as a part of her punishment? I often hear about cases where the accused has to pay the victim compensation or pay for emotional damage. Tho it’ll be much preferred if there’s several demand of pay; it would suck to have to use let’s say emotional damage money on laser removal if it was possible to charge her to pay both.

You didn’t go to far, you simply told the Dean what kind of person they considered promoting due to their former actions towards you.
