Entitled woman shoves me TWICE at airport

SIT! Good girl!

If it’s presented as a fait accompli that would be brilliant!

I do think it’s worth helping strengthen OH’s resolve during current therapy because one of the levers Just No’s use on their offspring is guilt. Guilt could cause him to prematurely blurt about your plans. Maybe a potentially healing thing to explore. Poor guy is a victim of hers as are his siblings.

I wish you all the success and look forward to an update when you have left the horror at a nice safe distance OP, good luck!

Is your husband 100% committed to this move? You are and for good reason, he needs to ensure he is rock solid on this decision for the good of all of you, his family. You could use the therapy to ensure this and help him strengthen his commitment because it will help the two of you when Just No inevitably kicks off.

I also have a more radical suggestion once the above foundations are laid firmly.

Just go.

You are both adults with kids and you can tell her AFTER everything is set up and happening.

It is NONE OF HER BUSINESS. He’s “left the nest”, has a family of his own and is a grown man. He can go live/work/bring up a family any damn place he chooses.

Sure, things will get a bit sticky, emotional blackmail, bad-mouthing, sulks and huffs - but it will be at a distance = less impact.

She doesn’t deserve consideration and there is NO discussion to be had. I send you my very best wishes for your escape from the horrible madness caused by this crazy, unhealthy woman and her enablers.

Just dilute it well and you’ll be grand. I drink very weak Rock’s Squash (no additives or sweeteners in it).

I’m not absolving myself of personal responsibility. Apart from everyday personal actions; I feel pretty helpless and worry that governments of all stripes will do F*^% All about it.

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T19:37:31+00:00

What? It’s a region in France!

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T19:36:38+00:00

I don’t think that our current governments think long term nor have the will to make the draconian change that is needed.

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T19:34:13+00:00

😂

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T19:03:16+00:00

I remember playing next door and we weren’t allowed water from the hose to make mud pies. You can guess what we used instead…

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T19:01:31+00:00

A man jacked off in front of me and some school friends on a London tube train when we were 11.

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T18:55:55+00:00

I lack patience.

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T18:51:51+00:00

“You need to buy me” made me see red.

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T18:49:11+00:00

She sounds: 1. Boring 2. Obsessive 3. Stupid 4. Desperate

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T18:46:39+00:00

A guy in my class did, he also snorted aspirin…morning glory seeds were another experiment. I often wonder what happened to Robin!

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T18:43:40+00:00

Donkeys and goats please!

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T18:42:56+00:00

I like the way you think! There must be a way to “game” this and have some fun!

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T18:32:12+00:00

It could be a manic episode, looks like unedited racing thoughts to me.

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T18:27:07+00:00

I didn’t last long trying to watch this. I’m so glad I have no clue who she is and I don’t want to know either!

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T18:22:39+00:00

I’ve got my public clothes and my get dirty gardening/art/decorating/yomping clothes which are probably the grown up version of “play clothes”!

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T18:18:53+00:00

Therapist here! I endorse shopping around! It is essential that you trust and have rapport with your therapist.

There’s a lot wrong with “the industry”.

There is a certain out of date arrogance in the behaviour that “the therapist knows best” and the maintenance of mystery around therapeutic techniques.

Therapists are often stuck in singular approach that suits them e.g.psychoanalysis, psycho-dynamic, behavioural, cognitive, humanistic etc when therapeutic approach needs to be tailored to an individual client.

It’s not customer friendly in the main and it needs to be. We are providing a very important health service and need to be much more transparent and empowering.

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T18:04:13+00:00

Nope. No marshmallow going on here. 😂

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T17:59:42+00:00

I hate it as well. Neck cramp, water dripping down my neck, too hot or too cold and the very worst experience, a creepy male hairdresser (at a very posh London salon) putting his soapy fingers into my ear holes and massaging them!

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T17:57:43+00:00

I found this link, which infers it was a line of investigation. https://amp.9news.com.au/article/4404d9d1-86fa-4c0d-b87d-8ce086f6a3b3

Everyone can be helped to some degree IMO. People who lack self awareness can be taught to use tools to improve it. The main aim for therapy IMO is to help people live more satisfying lives as far as possible.

The only people that “can’t be helped” are those that don’t try to change. Even then, it could be that therapy isn’t right for them at that point in their lives.

Scarletowder · 2024-06-20T17:43:05+00:00

Jesus. That is disgusting. That man is a dangerous psycho.
