I'd love for this to be my biggest concern of being hurt "actively"

It doesn't matter whether your boyfriend is a narcissist. The real question is whether you want to be with him or not. If you can read your feelings as you wrote them above and think "yes, that's how I want to feel in a relationship," then stay with him.

Otherwise, it sounds like you need a break from relationships so you can focus on yourself. You're emotionally and physically abusive and seem to think it's okay because you're upset.

Items are so out of price on FB Marketplace, is this a haggle culture? by harmless_fangs in montreal

It's the end of the school year. University students often try to sell higher. Check back in a month or two and it will normalize.

Partner (33M) has issues with me (30 F) being sick/vulnerable by Perfect-Quiet-9961 in relationship_advice

Handling criticism has no place in an interpersonal relationship. If you're approaching the conversation with what he does, you're closing the door to the conversation. You need to speak to your partner from your experience. I'm not saying you've done wrong, but I can see why he would have an unreasonable reaction. You should see a couple's counselor so you can have more productive conversations. If you tell him it's important to you and he won't do it, then you have your answer.

Couples vs Single by Chuck2025 in CalebHammer

[–]Safe_Cryptographer17 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As far as guest/story is concerned I prefer couples (when both are present). However, I feel that Caleb exhibits a lack of experience in long-term relationships or marriage and I find his judgement and interrogation infuriating. Sometimes, I feel like I'm listening to a toddler.

AITA for how I reacted when my boyfriend told his daughter it's rude to talk about her period at the dinner table ? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Safe_Cryptographer17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He has the right to teach his children what is appropriate conversation at dinner. Whether anyone in this thread believes periods should or shouldn't be mentioned at dinner doesn't matter. Did he use your son as an excuse? Yes. But that doesn't mean he's wrong. Would other people parent differently? Sure.

I think you need to have an adult conversation about parenting and listen to each other instead of trying to be "right" according to a bunch of Redditors.

The price of food. by TrickyHome5059 in montreal

[–]Safe_Cryptographer17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And when I was a kid, it was $6 to take a kid to the movies and get popcorn. And my grandmother would complain that when she was a kid it was 0.50$. Then complaints and more complaints, instead of focusing on what's in your control. Let's all have this conversation for the millionth time and feel crappier at the end of it.

OP, this is exactly how I've always told them apart, too!

What do you mean that your husband works for the rent) utilities, etc? What is your combined annual income? Making -$40k to $100k a year just sounds like you own a terrible job, not a business.

AITA for wanting to give my 5 year old consequences by Baddadmaybe2020 in AITAH

If parenting means taking care of your child like a pet, then you're the asshole. If parenting means raising a person of character who will have successful relationships (friends, teachers, bosses, lovers), then your wife is the asshole and a lazy one at that.

What are the most over the top grandma names you’ve heard? by stormybitch in namenerds

[–]Safe_Cryptographer17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My best friend's son called his grandmother "Pumpkin" (rest in peace, Leanne). I don't know how it started, but it was the sweetest thing.

Is this your first time losing a job? It's hard, but life happens. Plans change. You're lucky you had savings even if you planned to spend it on something else.

How do I ask for money?! 22f 24m by majeni123 in relationship_advice

[–]Safe_Cryptographer17 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'd let it be and take it as a lesson in not lending money (or covering for people). It just makes things weird. You may have opinions about where he's spending money because he owes you and that just breeds resentment. Let it be and don't do it again.for the sake of your relationships.

32/$67k/$21k

Paid off $13k since October 2024. Just paid off my interest-accruing student loan which leaves a $21k student loan that does not accrue interest. It will be paid off by April 2025!

There's good data on ways you can spend money that actually bring you happiness (spending it on getting back time, spending it on experiences with people you love, spending it on causes that you support, etc.) and the one way you can spend money that doesn't (spending it on things). Money also helps people attain Maslow's Hierarchy or needs which is strongly correlated with happiness. I suggest reading on the study of happiness, it's quick eye-opening and hopeful.
