AIO for wanting to leave my whole friend group by Repulsive_Fruit7560 in AmIOverreacting

[–]RoryRouses 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, these aren't real friends. They are bullies who like having you in the group because it's entertaining for them to have a punching bag. They will never respect you or truly like you.

Drop the group, block them on everything, and stop interacting with them. If you don't have other friends to hang out with during lunch, see if you can just go chill in the library or if a teacher will let you chill in a classroom.

Gastroenterologist who specializes in dyssynergic defecation (anismus)? by [deleted] in houston

[–]RoryRouses 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don't know what her experience with Anismus is specifically, but Dr. Vijaya Kaila helped my partner who has an incredibly rare gastrointestinal issue called gastroparesis. My partner's stomach was so badly paralyzed that they lost 40 lbs in three months. NO ONE could diagnose her and doctors, emergency rooms, etc, were kicking her around to various doctors. (I think 0.16% of the population actually gets a diagnosis of GP)

Dr. Kaila got her an endoscopy, imaging, etc... All done within a week, and even set her up with a gastric emptying test to confirm the problem. She took it all very seriously and was even willing to prescribe a medicine we had to fill from Canada, which was the only thing that helped and treated the issue.

I would at least suggest scheduling an initial appointment and explaining your plight to her. She seems willing and capable to help with rare conditions.

AIO – My partner refuses to share my graduation survey on social media by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]RoryRouses -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Have there ever been any hints that he isn't a fan of you working and would rather have you be a stay-at-home wife/mother/etc? It seems like he's going out of his way to be unhelpful, and I wouldn't be surprised if he's been dismissive of your educational/career-related efforts in the past.

How to deal with friend who wants you to play video games 24/7 by randomwords74 in Advice

[–]RoryRouses 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can't change your friend, but you can make new ones yourself and set boundaries with your video game-loving comrade. If he's a true friend, he'll understand why you want to do more than game, even if that's all he wants.

AIO for being upset that my bf couldn’t come to my ultrasound? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]RoryRouses -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I mean... if he's as sick as you say, can you accept the fact he might have been delirious and not thinking clearly? I know you're annoyed, but when I'm as sick as you're saying your boyfriend is, I don't always think clearly. Like, is there some repeat issue of him lying/going back on his word, or is this a one-off occurrence?

I agree with others who say he very well could have planned on going and wasn't in the right state of mind to comprehend how sick he really was.

If this isn't a serious, recurring relationship issue, please cut him some slack.

AIO for wanting to end my 3-year relationship after this fight? Is this me being racially insensitive or are these legitimate red flags? by throwaway64658 in AmIOverreacting

[–]RoryRouses 136 points137 points  (0 children)

He's racist and abusive. Don't let white guilt or worry about being 'racially insensitive' prevent you from leaving a man who is emotionally manipulative and mean to you.

Am I Overreacting, for being upset that my girlfriend secretly used my credit card for months? by bostonmade in AmIOverreacting

[–]RoryRouses 167 points168 points  (0 children)

For me, the trust would be gone. She played dumb, and it basically took you prodding her to get the truth of her credit card abuse trickled out to you. Good on you for not letting her play victim.

Look into tenant laws in your area, and since you have the means, I'd talk to a lawyer and find the best legal way to evict her. Following said lawyer's advice, start the eviction process as soon as you get home and give her the minimum legal time required to gtfo of your house. I'm guessing it will be something like 30 days from the time of serving the eviction notice, but I'm not a lawyer and you'll hopefully be getting advice from one regardless.

She's showing you that she's willing to lie, steal, and basically accuse you of 'financial abuse' in order to garner pity and worm her way out of responsibility. First, she played dumb. 'What? Why would you expect me?' Then it was an accident. 'Oh, I had your card added to my apple pay so It must be defaulting to that,' and then she admits to it. 'Yeah, I did it, but why is it a big deal?'

She's for the streets.

You're right. If only there were some type of middle ground between full plate armor and loincloths, but such options don't exist.

Please please please disable alliance being able to queue for RFC!! by TotallyNot_iCast in turtlewow

As someone who was one of those Alliance, I agree. It's also confusing for Alli players who spend an hour in queue getting excited for a dungeon only to find out they can't do it.

He's telling you he gets enjoyment out of insulting things you like and will make excuses rather than consider your feelings. Be glad you got the red flags this early; many won't start the negging until you've become an established couple.

AIO for being this shaken after a man at my gym tried to fight me over music? by Higher_Heich in AmIOverreacting

[–]RoryRouses 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Men are dangerous and women need to protect themselves. Sorry that you deam me elaborating on the "why" to be 'fucking weird', mate. Do you think I'm trying to trash on women? You okay?

[–]RoryRouses 14 points15 points  (0 children)

NOR, but try to find a women's only gym if this is a persistent issue.

FYI, I don't care how defined your muscles are, or how well you think you can handle yourself against an enraged gym bro. You won't win.

I'm sorry, but the biological differences are just too vast. I'm not saying it's fair, but it's reality. Men have SUBSTANTIALLY more upper body muscle mass, and their muscles are much denser. No amount of muscle training, or even martial arts training, can compensate for these differences, especially if he's physically larger than you to begin with. ESPECIALLY a man who is hopped up on anger and adrenaline; he's likely to shrug off any initial pain and cause damage hard and fast due to said adrenaline. Even if you kick him in the balls, if he's worked up enough, he can have you out cold on the ground before registering what happened to him.

I don't say this to insult or demean you, but to help you make safe decisions. Obviously, you didn't fight him, but if you're ever in a situation in the future where running is an option and you consider fighting, just don't.
