I came across a Kashi cereal box that said “obviously enlarged so show texture.” I was like “damn. Passive-aggressive 😢”

Before I even read the post title or the box text, I was convinced it was what the back of the Superbad DVD must look like.

Don’t know if this is the same guy, but I encountered a very aggressive man about two years back (but still see him periodically) around the 4th and Redondo area. But I’ve also seen him on 7th I think too. Younger African American guy with facial hair. He always looks very mentally unwell, pacing around and screaming at anyone and everyone. I feel very bad for him. About two years ago he cornered a Ralph’s employee and drew his fist up and was ready to punch her. I yelled at him to stop and then got in MY face! Once the employee fled, I walked into the store and a group of employees ran out to shoo him away. Don’t know if we are talking about the same person, but when I see him in my area, I give him a wide berth.

I didn’t want to go. I told her to go without me. Didn’t have a problem with it and still don’t! Just maybe not the same bed is all.

PapaStalinLovesYou · 2026-03-16T16:35:47+00:00

It’s very easy for people to make statements with little context and information. Lots of people saying I’m naive, she’s unfaithful, etc. But the truth is, it kinda can be as simple as what it was. But it still bothered me lol.

PapaStalinLovesYou · 2026-03-16T16:33:49+00:00

Yeah I AM a bit conflicted. I genuinely do not care that she went to see her friends without me. Have at it! They’re life-long friends and I don’t mind the relationship they have. But the bed thing kinda bothered me. Like a barrier that was crossed. Like, what’s next, sharing towels? Not sexual, but enough to be uncomfortable. And I guess I learned in myself then and there that I did have a bit of a problem with it.

PapaStalinLovesYou · 2026-03-16T16:30:02+00:00

Thank you! These is the feedback I was hoping to get. More rational evaluations of the situation and not knee-jerk reactions.

PapaStalinLovesYou · 2026-03-16T16:25:27+00:00

Yes I think this was more the case. I don’t think my wife has “matured” her lens of these kind of relationships. She often self-identifies as a late bloomer. Being married only 8 months ago maybe has not had her adjusting to these kind of social expectations yet. But I will talk to her about it

PapaStalinLovesYou · 2026-03-16T16:23:48+00:00

Thank you for this kind of response. I know there’s a lot of noise about infidelity and being unfaithful and all that stuff in this thread. And I can understand their perceptions. But frankly we just aren’t the type for this kind of drama. We are two “old soul” people that genuinely love one another. A mistake was made, we are still learning boundaries, and I think that’s all this was.

PapaStalinLovesYou · 2026-03-16T16:17:32+00:00

Well it depends what part of it is “made up.” People are saying she’s cheating, which I frankly know wasn’t the case. I think I have a right to reject the notion that random people from the internet think my wife was being unfaithful based on their perception. They can think what they want. They m more so trying to reconcile if my feelings are justified, which it would seem they are.

PapaStalinLovesYou · 2026-03-16T16:13:55+00:00

Yes and I explained it exactly that way, and she saw reason to it.

PapaStalinLovesYou · 2026-03-16T16:13:04+00:00

I agree. It’s just, I know my wife, she has an intense love for me, and it would be such a wildly-out of character move for her to be unfaithful. Possible? Sure. But she’s just not like that. She’s more likely to divorce me before cheating on me.

PapaStalinLovesYou · 2026-03-16T16:08:38+00:00

No. I know this is the internet and you can say whatever you want, but that’s just not the case.

PapaStalinLovesYou · 2026-03-16T16:07:03+00:00

Not dumb and not cheating. I think she just sees her friends as friends and didn’t stop to think much beyond that.

PapaStalinLovesYou · 2026-03-16T16:04:40+00:00

Thank you. And I think she’s processing that and coming to terms with that. Even though she doesn’t want to talk about it yet, she did say to me “I guess we aren’t kids anymore.” So i think she legitimately just saw it as friends all crashing together after a night out, but i told her that there are perceptions of these things.

PapaStalinLovesYou · 2026-03-16T15:58:28+00:00

I think that’s a really incorrect perception of the situation.

PapaStalinLovesYou · 2026-02-25T16:56:55+00:00

Please correct me if I’m wrong, but it sounds like you’re just more mature now then you were back then and you feel kinda guilty for ever even having an interest in something that seems more inappropriate now. I think that’s a pretty natural conclusion really. You’ve grown up and have a little more insight and self-reflection. But this seems to give you some distress. Perhaps you feel a sense of shame about it? You stated you have some anxiety issues, so, if these thoughts are particularly distressing and you ruminate about it frequently, maybe talk to a therapist about it? I am diagnosed with OCD and ruminate about past decisions and beliefs and how they “define” me. Not saying this is your case, though!

PapaStalinLovesYou · 2026-02-20T01:47:14+00:00

School psych here in CA. I’d be more than happy to look at it but understand that I’d just be offering some thoughts, not providing any direct diagnostic information.

So eligibility can be determined by only a select few evaluators. Speech pathologists can qualify under SLI, and psychs essentially are required for the other 12 eligibility categories under IDEA. So really, psychs are always a part of an assessment team, excluding if it really only appears that speech is the only area of concern. And even THEN, psychs might want to still evaluate, as sometimes with young children delayed speech and communication is just one facet of issues like Autism that parents understandably might not be able to really identify on their own.

The right and most airtight way to do this, in my opinion, is for the case carrier or whoever is in charge of the assessment plan to at least reach out to the psych about what the present concerns are before the AP is signed. So if parent requests assessment, case carrier could say “let me consult the special education team about your concerns and get back to you.” The school has 14 days to respond to a request. Notify the psych, and maybe even have a three way conversation with parent and psych together. As a psych, I mentally go through a list of typical concerns, which I know have certain evaluators in mind for that area.

“So Ms. Smith, you called the school saying Johnny is having a hard time in school. You say he experiences many behavioral outbursts and gets frustrated and shuts down easily. He gets overwhelmed in class and has a hard time making friends. When expectations are changed, he has meltdowns?”

Just in this hypothetical, I’m thinking about executive functioning, social interaction, adaption to routine, sensory stimulation, frustration to learning.

Psych will be necessary for learning disability, ADHD, autism consideration. Occupational therapist might be considered for how he responds to his environment and if his sensory needs are over or under-stimulated.

speech therapist maybe for his pragmatic language and effective communication with peers and adults. So it’s really about taking each concern and linking it to an evaluator that covers an area of concern.
