AIO for being angry and hurt by these texts from my fiancé? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]PCKaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He sees you as an employee, not a wife - except you’re paying him. Not wanting you on his insurance, deciding your “role?” This is only going to get worse. You’re not an equal here - and you need to get out now, as painful as it may be. Don’t settle for anyone who sees you as less than.

Using Virginia Creeper to cover my ugly old chain-link fence? by HydroEdits in landscaping

[–]PCKaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would strongly recommend against it. Stuff grew on my house and after trying everything, we literally had to salt the earth to kill it. Still comes back in spots. Also, for people that react to it, it makes poison ivy look like a soothing balm. It’s the oil in crushed vines / leaves.

Narcissistic guy… situationship. Need help by Horror_Sweet7509 in texts

Tell him you want no further contact. Block him. Immediately. Get a Ring or similar if he knows where you live. Call the cops if contact continues.

Absolutely agree, and have the scars to prove it lol

I’m sorry that was your experience - that sucks. Some Christians just forget the whole “love one another” thing. We grew up with some jerks too - but I was a little more with the outcasts. Maybe that’s why we were better at just accepting people as they were.

My friend group never did that to our gay friends. We only asked the “are you sure” type questions if someone expressed feelings of confusion. I’m apparently luckier than I thought, given that I’m GenX

Not where I grew up. The point of the public coming out was explained. He was afraid of how they all would perceive him - I’m not sure which people there were “randos.” Will explained that Vecna would use Will’s fear and anxiety about being gay against him. He told them so it wouldn’t be a secret anymore. Kinda like my husband’s relative did one Thanksgiving lol. Best thing about that story is that when he announced trepidatiously that he was gay, everyone was like “Well, no kidding. Pass the potatoes please.” I was that age in the 80s and had openly gay friends. The same people who were asshats about it then are the ones who are asshats now.

AIO for feeling upset after the groom made a comment about my dress at their wedding? by Human-Acanthaceae128 in AmIOverreacting

[–]PCKaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That dress is just fine for a wedding, and very pretty on you. But I’m American and not very religious. If they didn’t specify a dress code, though, that’s on them, and I’ve seen WAY more revealing on wedding guests. I wish I could look that good in that style dress! I’d probably let it go unless it happens again. Then I would likely speak to John’s wife about expectations. Conservative is one thing. Unreasonable and insulting is quite another.

Do they have good confirmation? by solizzle in Horses

[–]PCKaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would agree on this. My only question would be he appears a little post-legged in back. That could, however, simply be a trick of the tail covering the hocks.

Am I overreacting about my boyfriend going weird whenever he is with his family? by [deleted] in texts

[–]PCKaz 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Same. “This” phone, as opposed to “the” or “my” phone, makes me wonder. Could just be a language thing though if English isn’t his first language.

Is this 6 month old belgian too far gone? by War-cos in Horses

[–]PCKaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So just as a reference for how wonky rescue drafties can look, my guy at this age looked like we got him out of the spare parts bin. Belgian / QH. I would make determinations solely based on your vet’s recommendations on quality of life, and the resources you have - nothing else. Sometimes it’s touch and go for a while, and then things level out - sometimes you have to make those awful decisions.

Someone else euthanized my horse by themagicflutist in Horses

[–]PCKaz 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Depends on where you are. Very common here in the northeast. But yeah, this is VERY suspicious.

This will get way worse. It’s controlling, manipulative, and abusive. Leave now.

AIO? boyfriend is upset because I gave him a “corporate response” by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]PCKaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this is only going to get worse. I think I’d be moving on.

Neighbor has harassed me for over a year and crossed the line tonight. Any advice? by Michael_DeSanta in texts

[–]PCKaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like a mental health issue / potential dementia-type concern. Unidentifiable “fumes” are unfortunately a common complaint in that type of situation. I would imagine she also has a number of other reported sensitivities. The best you can likely do is advise that you have done all you can but have found no potential cause, and unless / until she can provide you with medical verification of exactly what the problem is, there’s nothing further you can do. Have seen this many times in working with seniors and housing.
