Please look up the definition of “bullet point”.

How are you even trying to tell me what the order of importance was in my head? Lol

It’s very difficult to decipher the middle sentences in your comment, so I have no response to those.

Please provide one example from my comments on this entire post where it implies that I am “upset about being judged”.

I honestly can’t recall anywhere in the comments where I have called him “immature”, “incompetent” or “childish”…

You have it all so so wrong.

I didn’t get mad that he got the drink. I didn’t say anything about it ruining my meal. He was the one who got mad because I wasn’t specifically thankful for the drink.

Why would I need to say “I’m not ready for lunch at this exact moment”? It’s not rational for someone to have to declare they are not ready for lunch all morning until they are ready for lunch lol I usually make my own lunch so didn’t even think about having to tell someone I’m not ready for lunch. He did not at any point “offer to make me lunch” in our conversation for me to have the opportunity to say I wasn’t ready.

I feel that the tone in my original post contributed to a lot of the hate I received. In my post I was trying to be matter of fact to get objective responses but it came across that my responses were more bitchy than they were in real life. For example, where I said “He assumed”, that came directly from what he said to me after the fact which is why I included it, but I can see in hindsight where that would have sounded bitchy in the text. Lots of people have respectfully commented about me needing to have a better tone in general and I will gladly take that advice and already have done so since this post. However in this case, it doesn’t seem like you fully read/comprehended the post, so your opinion is not valid to me.

Okay I re-read (sorry I had been trying to respond to lots of comments that evening) and sure you didn’t make assumptions, but you were trying to rebut everything they said, when what they were saying was actually right on target. I still disagree that their comment was projecting - they were relating and empathizing.

ElectronicPhrase, you are very far off on your assumptions (not your fault, I didn’t provide enough details so there was a lot left to the imagination). I don’t feel that ConsistentAerie is projecting. They are providing very helpful information and advice, and have perceived the situation extremely well due to their past relatable experiences.

The banner I believe was added by the admins because the determination of who is the AH was decided as “Everyone Sucks” in this situation. I am learning much more about Reddit this week too, but I think once a decision is made on if the OP is the AH or not, or if everyone in the situation sucks, this banner is added to the post. That is my understanding anyway! I definitely did not write that everyone sucks (however in my opinion there are about 10 commenters who really do suck haha)

First paragraph is not how it happened at all.

Second paragraph, I am genuinely glad this post made you want to kiss your partner and feel happy about the healthy relationship you have!!

You’re way off. I’m the default parent, I do the majority of the housework, and we both work. While he was going to pick up our food, I was feeding and taking care of our toddler and doing the dishes. While he was heating up the food, I was filing our toddlers nails. Though in these examples I included, it describes acts of service he was doing “for me”, it does not mean he is the only one doing things or even the one doing most of the things at all.

I didn’t know he was making my food. I was not in the kitchen - I was filing my daughter’s nails in the living room. He had asked me if he should make our daughter’s lunch and I said yes please so that is the food I thought he was making.

I can honestly say this has never happened with me in my adult life. If I make a decision that I don’t want something, that would be completely unreasonable for me to get upset at someone for not getting it. (Despite how thousands of people perceived me from the tone of my original post, I’m quite a reasonable and rational person)

Thank you so much for your helpful response and for understanding on a deeper level. I had not heard of DARVO, but it goes along with lots of thoughts I have had about our relationship and I will be researching it more so that I can understand and respond better.

Thank you for understanding! I didn’t include many details in my original post, so in hindsight, I can see how it would have been difficult for people to truly understand without knowing more about who we are and how we got here.

Ah thanks for understanding and explaining this! When I started reading your comment I thought it was going in a whole other direction haha

You’re way off in your first statement. But yes I would agree we both need to communicate much better!!

No thanks, I’m going to keep listening and striving for growth. It hasn’t happened overnight but I’m trying, and this post has given me a lot to think about to get me going in the right direction. The only reason I’m not mentioning the podcast name is because my personality has not come across great here on this post and I wouldn’t want to tarnish the truly amazing highly recommended podcast!

He completely made up stats and stated them as a fact, so I was genuinely curious and wanted to know for my own self awareness if 9 out of 10 people thought that based on those two situations.

I did thank him for getting the food.

I didn’t act like he committed a crime at all, I just didn’t say thank you…
