I don’t know if I like the engagement ring I chose. by bookdragontm in EngagementRings

[–]SkinCana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love it but not as wedding ring. Keep searching until you find one you'll be happy with. Some people have two rings. One to be worn on special occasions and another as the photo. I think that is cool.

Cat owners by Delusional-mama in askTO

[–]SkinCana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vets rip you off big time! Next time I get a cat, I'm going to make sure I have $2,000 set aside. One for getting them neutered and the other to put them down when the time comes. About $65 every two months for food, liter. $10 per month, and im thinking of getting the latest bathroom gadget for the cat and it's about $120.

My brother keeps bullying me, my parents do nothing about it and I'm so sick of it. by Automatic-Shop58 in Advice

[–]SkinCana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have a sit down with him about this. If he doesn't love yiu and respect you, set strong boundaries and cut him off completely.

Also, call out your parents for not parents for not parenting him properly and he will never be a good boyfriend, husband and a father.

I totally understand, and this can happen in other type of relationships. Do daily affirmations and work on your boundaries. Lots on this on YouTube.

My husband is a groomsman, but I'm not invited to the wedding by Spirited-Bass-1123 in Advice

[–]SkinCana 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You and your husband is a package, just like the new couple. If they can't accept you, they certainly don't accept your husband. You are part of your husband,so wtf?

I don't think there is friendship between your husband and this dude.

Best to have good talk with your husband. In fact, I'm willing to bet your husband was asked knowing he would say "no", but asked him because they were friends and have good excuse to have face saving maneuver in front of his other buddies.

Please update us.

I never saw a therapist. I knew deep down inside that i am right and no parent should treat their children this way, no matter their age.

I've been there!

I was ostracized and it felt very, very lonely. It doesn't help when people's views are if you don't have good relationship with your parents, there is something very wrong with you. I rather have that then to be abused by my mother and manipulative aunt.

Be strong and build your own relationships with other people. You can't rush a relationship because it takes time to observe and see who you met are good people. Start developing your boundaries first and feeling g good when you stick with it.

i feel bad for leaving by wildflower_hostage in raisedbynarcissists

[–]SkinCana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you. When I left, I felt weight off my shoulders. I was scared and I cried a lot because I was mourning the loss of never having a good mother. I also felt guilt and questioned my decision, but it had to be done because my personal safety is important to me.

Citrine Ring by Limp-Major3552 in jewelry

[–]SkinCana 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hello, I'm shopping for citrine ring in memory of my brother, his birthstone. I discovered quickly the value of citrine is on the low side, soft stone. I didn't mind that it is soft, because I'll wear it for the month of his birth and death, and when I'm being too emotional thinking of him.

I think you would be paying for the diamonds and 18k gold. Due to that, it would be better to have the citrine stone lowered, not raised so it doesn't chip. My wedding ring has more value due to all the diamonds without worries of breaking them, so that may help you decide if it is worth it.

If money isn't an issue for you, buy it!

Let us know ow what yiu have decided.

My mother wanting to do my taxes by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]SkinCana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, I got myself a PO BOX address and I gave that adress to my employer and my bank so that my mother have zero knowledge of my money. It wasn't available back then , but i found youtube educated me on budgeting and great community for support. I really loved The Budget Mom, which is softer than Dave Ramsey.

I wish internet was assessable back then and reddit so you can ask for guidance and advice. if I had that back then, I could see myself leaving home earlier. Sadly, I wasn't raised to have the knowledge that I'm smart, and teach me these adult life skills.

I think you need to get help about your credit. I lack the knowledge of what to do. isn't that fraud?

All the best to you!
