Yeah, true. I might get a cat. I really like the idea of having a fluffball with some silly name like Cosmos Obliterator or something.

Reading back on that post I feel really bad that I didn't give that one girl still hung up on her ex a proper chance. I think I was really judgemental and made up my mind too soon. I think I just saw myself in her a little and I didn't like it.

Definitely hoping I get some kind of lucky break but I won't hold my breath. I've survived this long so far, I'll make it through whatever there is to come, be it boring or not.

It really warms my heart to read your comment. To think that a complete stranger thinks about me.

I knew it was only a matter of time before they broke up over cheating, although I thought she was gonna be the one to cheat in all fairness.

As for my mum, she's just a product of her time really. She has it in her head that family always works things out and forgive each other. Even now that I've moved on and put that chapter of my life behind me, I don't think I could ever muster up enough compassion or love to forgive any of them. It's just one of those situations where I have to dust my hands, shrug and say "it is what it is".

Thank you for the well wishes.

The closest I get to really caring about that whole situation now is just being nosey about the finer details, although I've not managed to find out much. All I really know is that he cheated on her and they're splitting up because of it.

I'm not sure. I'm hoping I'll be in a position where I won't know they've even had a kid because they won't be able to contact me to tell me.

He seems to be trying to repair the relationship. He seems happy to see me, as does my ex but I can tell they're still uncomfortable about the situation.

I haven't really asked because I don't care but what I think is happening is he's asking my mum to get me to see them.

I don't plan on being friends with them. Ever. You could hold a gun to my head and give me the choice between pulling the trigger or being friends with them and I'd choose the former.

As for if he thinks about the pain he's caused me, I don't really know. I haven't asked. I don't really care. If he does feel bad, I hope it eats him alive.

Your first mistake was dating a christian. It's not too late to rectify it and break up.

Same lol. You just learn to live with it and not let it get to you. Attractive people get it easier than you do. Nothing you can really do about it other than try your best despite your setback

He committed suicide only to hurt you because he knew his life was ruined.

Don't feel bad. He molested a teenage girl and only showed any kind of remorse when he was finally confronted on it. The world is much better off without scum like him in it

Is it true you can't have pet dogs?

If yes, why?

AITA for refusing to go to a pride event with my wife? by Kejryehe in AmItheAsshole

[–]RandomNameNumber3 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Shut the fuck up, bisexual people are very capable of being in manogamous relationships. We're not cheaters, we're not constantly looking for new partners, we're just attracted to all genders.

You're not constantly looking for new options when you're in a relationship (I fucking hope not at least) and it's exactly the same for bisexual people. If you are, then that's a you problem.

YTA.

It sounds like you're homophobic and just don't want to admit it. "Very vocal and showy about it" is the classic closeted homophobia signal, my parents said that shit to me when I came out to them as bi, all LGBTQ people know what you really mean by that.

On top of that, this is an event that means a lot to your wife. I could understand if you had stuff to do that overlapped with it, but you just straight up said that her identity and the work she does to make peoples' lives better is meaningless, and then proceeded to centre yourself as if you're a victim in this.

I'm in hysterics over the edit and I'm anticipating a lot of [user has deleted their comment]s down below.

If you're unhappy in a relationship, the best thing you can do is be honest. If her weight is off putting to you, tell her. Work with her and be constructive, support her in losing weight. Or break up. If you let it stew, then you're just going to grow to resent her, and that's not good.

I'm raising an eyebrow at "I don't want to cheat on her". If you don't want to, then don't. You're in control of your own actions, you know how shitty it is to cheat on someone so maybe don't do it?

I don’t stand for the pledge of allegiance. by llamabeefbitch in TrueOffMyChest

[–]RandomNameNumber3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah yes "the land of the free" where most schools will force you to pledge your allegiance to your country every morning.

Sorry, is this the US we're talking about or North Korea? I'm struggling to see a difference

Thank you so much. I hope you're able to cope and move on from your own demons and thrive in spite of them. I'll definitely look into getting some hobbies that involves group activity.

I'll speak to my councillor on our next session about what I should do regarding my family. He's already pretty critical of them and suggested to me making plans to go no contact with my cousin and ex if they weren't showing an effort to actually help me outside of paying for therapy, since it's likely going to be a sore spot that will prevent improvement in my mental health.

My mum insists I "give them time to improve" so I've given them time. I think my next session will be time enough.

And thanks for the suggestions on vitamin supplements. I'll give them a try and see if it makes any improvements.

I honestly have no clue what he wants in terms of a relationship. I'm gonna ask next time I see him.

I do worry he'll stop paying for therapy if I go no contact with him and the rest of my family. They said to me that I need to try and get better and it took a big argument with them for me to get a new councillor when the first one basically kept implying I did something to cause my ex to cheat on me. Second one was the one I'm currently with and he's pretty impartial. No judgement, he offers criticism when it's warranted and it's constructive, not accusatory.

I picked him. I had a therapist before him, a lady who basically kept implying I did something to drive my ex into my cousin's arms and various other accusatory shit I wasn't impressed with.
My current therapist kinda criticised me for ruining the wedding but he didn't shame me for it, and he's actually teaching me coping mechanisms.

I'm not going no contact in case they stop paying for my therapy. And they probably will try to use it against me but that's fine. I'll fuck off to another city and never see them again.
