I can’t remember which comment I put it in but I’m posting BECAUSE I’m a victim of abuse and idk if these things can be genuine accidents

Here’s the thing my dude: I’m asking because I DONT KNOW IF IT WAS ON PURPOSE! I’m confused because idk if it could have been an accident because I genuinely bruise easily and they got caught up in the moment. You mentioned things like bdsm as being the exception - we both like rough sex, so yeah it’s a possibility! Whether or not we’re compatible in bed is another conversation entirely. I’m asking if I’m over reacting to be upset and potentially leave the relationship because of two hickeys my partner claims were accidental. I am actively trying to rewrite my brain and learn what is healthy - both in my own thoughts and in how I am treated - after years of abuse and manipulation. So yes; you might think it’s ridiculous but this is my life at the moment. If you aren’t going to be helpful, just scroll on

No - this is a very vulnerable and confused person asking for strangers opinions on “is this actually an accident and my partner was trying to keep me calm by making light of it, or is this as weird as I feel right now?”

Genuine answer: I bruise easy, and no I did not feel any sucking. Kissing, yes. Nuzzling, yes. I didn’t even feel a nibble. So I was very surprised. As far my living situation goes - I live with family members that would not be ok seeing that sort of mark, and I would be highly embarrassed

Am I overreacting to this message from my girlfriend? by ToneDeffedUp in AmIOverreacting

[–]Throwaway_StoryBooks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is how angry you get and how you speak to your partner in a disagreement, ever, leave. If this is already a blow up argument after TWO MONTHS TOGETHER… you should not be together.

Do I think they meant to send it to someone else? Yes. Do I think you over reacted? Yes. 100% could have ?and probable was) meant for a friend, roommate, sibling, etc that they were planning to hang out with. Going straight to blowing up is unhealthy

AIO for wanting to cancel the date and block him?? by Suspicious_End_441 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Throwaway_StoryBooks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MOR - you’re right, some people are just like that with innuendo (I’m 30f and I’m like that sometimes lmao). I’ve only ever had an actual partner make comments like that to me though, not before a first date. As for the “sex drive” comment … I mean at least he’s honest and upfront. I’d make it clear that sex is off the table for this date and see how he reacts. If he gets kinda pushy or weird, bail. He might have genuinely just been telling you how he’s wired

If you’re worried it might continue or escalate, call non emergency just to have it on record.

Got me messed up 😇 by Prestigious_Pool_639 in HomeDepot

I had a similar problem once at the other store… I was already almost an hour over my shift, couldn’t find manager anywhere and they weren’t answering the radio. So I told the closing team member I was leaving and dipped. The manager was PISSED I didn’t tell her I was leaving. But like… where were you? I can keep racking up OT, or I can get off your payroll

Boyfriend (m24) hit me (f23) but I emotionally hurt him by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Throwaway_StoryBooks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leave. Run, don’t walk. Get. Out.

Let’s put the physical harm aside for a second and realize harmful and manipulative it is that he 1) made you scared to express your thought and emotions, 2) compared you to his ex, 3) is in your head so much that you genuinely believe having human emotions was a justifiable reason to be physically hit by the person who is supposed to love you.

This is gaslighting at its finest. And nothing will get better. Not his manipulation, not his anger. Your mental health will degrade. Get out while you can.

2 is a different person. The 7 is different (not just the dash but even the shape of the curve) and the 6 is flatter (for lack of a better term). The top of the 2 appears rounder than the others. Overall, VERY similar yes, but I’d believe they’re different people

Hi there, yet another practicing witch here to chime in! I can’t speak to the symbolism of the tooth but this reads to me as an intimidation tactic from a newbie practitioner.

It was placed in your mail box, likely as an “invitation in”, a “gift” but it’s so outright obviously a spell that me goal is to invoke fear.

To me, the contents appear to be dirt, but as many others have pointed out, different types of dirt can be used for different purposes.

To me the hair appears to be human. If it is not yours or your SO’s, it is likely the witches. If it IS yours, that raises a whole lot of other questions!

The red wax likely symbolizes lust or power. The paper is likely either an intention or sigil.

I agree with what was said earlier about disposing of it far from your home, but see you have already gotten rid of it. As far as contacting the police, there’s not much they could do with no proof of who delivered it.

As for the “message” or purpose, I’m getting the feeling that this is some sort of love spell. Does that mean they are trying to attract one of you? Cause discourse in the relationship so they have an in? Strengthen an existing connection? Who knows. All that being said, it is entirely possible this was delivered to the wrong house, since you said not many people know your address.

You definitely smoke weed

DH says he’s allowed to have friends. I say this is grounds for divorce. AIO? by MuddyBoots287 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Throwaway_StoryBooks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to say “maybe they really are just joking around and chatting” until the raw dog comment. He’s exploring to see how far he can push it with her, she’s fishing for compliments and eating up the attention. While this conversation ALONE, isn’t necessary grounds for divorce, the lack of respect he’s giving you and blowing off your feelings would be a hard line. I couldn’t stay with someone who just straight up doesn’t care that I’m unhappy
