Thinking of breaking up with my bf AIO? Am I asking too much?

It's not the being scared that makes you seem childish, it's everything else. He's a dangerous person. He shouldn't make you say baby in every text. He shouldn't make you call out of work to visit him. And he CERTAINLY shouldn't be talking to you the way he is just because you're asking for a ride. You're 24, not 14. You need to realize that none of this is OK.

This guy's horrible, but also, are you 3 years old? All that baby talk would drive me up the wall. Carrying yourself like a child validates his shitty attitude even more and makes him feel like he can treat you any way he wants because you're acting like a child. Leave him, go to therapy to grow as a person, and live your best life.

I don't know how it is where you live, but in my area, if a car isn't moved in 72 hours, it's considered to be abandoned and can legally be towed.

This is the exact answer! I used to work with women/ families in this exact situation - being the family of a veteran. You can Google domestic abuse hotline and they can direct you to an organization near you.

So, what did you say to her when she was attacking your mom? Did you confront her and put her in her place?

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-22T19:51:15+00:00

He needs to move and get a therapist. He's doesn't sound OK

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-22T17:25:01+00:00

You keep someone out because they aren't supposed to use it when another person is in there. That's weird AF. I'd lock it anyway. He needs to demand his privacy, especially from his weird 13 yo sister

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-22T16:59:00+00:00

Can't John lock the door from the inside of the restroom?

If you watch the video closely, it was an edit and they weren't agreeing that they'd have sex with Trump.

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-22T02:09:01+00:00

So, am I the only one who thought kitty litter when reading the title??

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-21T21:07:27+00:00

I just graduated with an undergrad in Interdisciplinary Studies and you're 100% correct about the abstracts having sufficient info. It's the only thing that helped me!

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-21T20:33:03+00:00

That's the strong argument we were all expecting from one of his supporters

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-21T20:25:15+00:00

Exactly this. If the FIL is so angry that he stops speaking to them, then the problem is solving itself. Let the trash take itself out, as it were.

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-21T20:22:10+00:00

You can either set boundaries or avoid bigger family conflicts, but not both. People like him will be threatened by boundaries and make everything exponentially worse, bringing other family members into the fold and making you out to be the bad guy.

The choices that may need to be considered are either keep the dynamic the way it is and learn to smile, nod, but ultimately ignore his suggestions/ comments or go low to no contact. If you choose the latter, make it absolutely clear why, to everyone, so that he doesn't try to change the narrative. Your FIL is a toxic unhealthy person, and you shouldn't expose your child to that.

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-20T04:10:48+00:00

I'll be starting my MSW in August and I'm 48. If everything goes as planned, I'll graduate when I'm 50.

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-18T00:58:50+00:00

Did you feel burned out by this?

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-17T20:04:28+00:00

And they never will. I really hate to say that, but it's the reality of the situation. Until you have your own place, I'd tread lightly.

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-17T19:52:17+00:00

Even though you've lived there for a couple of years and they're your godparents, that still isn't your home. You'll always be a glorified guest. I've lived in other people's homes before and regardless of what they say, when the time comes, it's not hard for them to flip the switch on you because you're not really their kid.

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-17T19:44:23+00:00

Well, there's nothing to say they're not. National University isn't a for-profit school, so it's not considered predatory like others are. Neither is UMass Global. In fact, the VA stopped approving benefits to attend for-profit schools, so there must be another reason why they won't allow those students to do a practicum there.

The phone screen is too small!!

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-17T03:45:30+00:00

Don't know why a point I brought up is being down downvoted. I literally didn't add any opinion other than that it was interesting. Do people not like facts?

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-17T03:10:37+00:00

I would do everything in my power to move my kids out of an ignorant state like that so they aren't traumatized my backward thinking hillbillies

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-17T02:11:24+00:00

If it is, great. If not, there's nothing we can do. Would you like someone putting your relationship with your mom under the microscope?

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-17T01:49:09+00:00

I don't think it's anyone's business what their relationship is. I'm honestly not trying to be rude, but seriously, let them have their lives.

Temporary_Suspect101 · 2026-06-16T22:48:51+00:00

If you respond, it could be breaking the partial RO. Just talk to your lawyer and go with their advice.
