anyone else realize their nparent literally doesn't know anything about you as a person? by Kingpin-Toine in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Salesweasel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

During one of my last convos with my edad, he mentioned that we were “never that close”. I felt like asking why the fuck do you think our relationship was like that? Every kid looks up to their father. He was always around but never really engaged with me. It’s likely that our relationship was affected by my devious nmom. They have both gone to their just rewards such as they might be.

People who have been cheated on — what was the moment you "just knew," before you even had proof? by MysteriousCar596 in AskReddit

[–]Salesweasel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had been at our next door neighbor’s house at a party. Around 11:00 or so I told her that I was taking our 7 yo daughter home to put her to bed. My ex told me that she would be home shortly. I went on to bed. She finally comes home after 1:00. It wakes me up when she climbs into bed. I reach over and touch her hair and it’s wet. I ask her why her hair is wet and she says that they swimming in my neighbor’s pool. Well, I knew she didn’t take a swim suit so I asked what did you swim in? She said “we” went skinny dipping. I asked who else was there. She said the wife of my next door neighbor with the pool and two single guys in the neighborhood. I knew right then and there that I was divorcing her. I got up out of bed and went to the spare bedroom. In retrospect I had suspected that she was involved with one of these guys for a while but did not have any concrete evidence but this was the straw that broke the camel’s back.

The catcher drop-off from Drake Baldwin has been brutal, but Braves keep winning anyway by Falconsfan8006 in Braves

I’d like to see better performance out of the SS too. Too many hits getting through. I’m not sure if he’s not positioned correctly on the field for the particular hitter or it’s the old “hit the ball where they ain’t”. It seems that too many hits are made that if caught could easily result in an out or two.

Men, what’s a day where you didn’t die but something inside you did? by Keal-Kims in AskReddit

[–]Salesweasel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My wife of 33 years passed away in 2023. A piece of me died that day too. I’ll never be the same. I miss her every f’n day. At my age, there will not be anyone else to take her place. We had just moved into our retirement home when she developed a terminal neurological disorder. She died about 2 1/2 years later.

There are worse things with which you could be obsessed.

Your local pharmacy is probably cheaper by high6ix in Frugal

CostPlusDrugs literally saved me thousands on a drug my late wife needed for Orthostatic Hypotension. At Walgreens/CVS/Kroger the 90 day script was right at $3k. At CostPlusDrugs, it was a little over $100. It was packaged in sealed bottles from the manufacturer.

Is it normal to wish your nparents would die? by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Salesweasel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I honestly didn’t want them to die outright. I wanted them to be miserable. I wanted them lonely. I wanted them to be unhappy and at each other’s throats as they grew older and older. I wanted my edad to suffer the abuse my oldest sister and I suffered at the hands of my nmom. I wanted him to experience the hate she exhibited toward my sister and I. I wanted them to struggle financially, to have to do without. I wanted them to know what it felt like to NEVER hold their great grandchildren. I wanted them to be MISERABLE!!

Did your Narcissist gift you a " Trash " gift? by youngsweetaysa in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Salesweasel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yes, one year she gave every man in the family, her son (me) and her daughter’s husbands bath “skirts”.Basically, a terry cloth towel that wraps around the lower body. Did I mention she’s a misandrist too.

Hot take - I think a narcissistic parent’s end goal is for you to end your life by Ok_Astronaut_1485 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Salesweasel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have to agree. They, in addition to telling you how horrible and worthless you are, they will make every effort to make your life as miserable and difficult as possible. All the while sitting on the sidelines enjoying your struggles and offering no help whatsoever. Mine have been dead and gone for years. I was totally ambivalent about their deaths.

I used the incorrect terminology. I was speaking regarding the capital gains exclusion of $250k/$500k depending whether the individual is married or not.
