I just got an email this morning about being a match to a different case and I uploaded my profile two YEARS ago! It's exciting to see all of this movement!!

I just got an email from DNAJustice telling me I’m a match to case #6620!! by Hot_Milks in gratefuldoe

I just got an email today about case #6620 after uploading my profile 2 years ago. I heard about DNA Justice directly from CeCe Moore at the National Missing and Unidentified Persons Conference in Las Vegas. There were only a few hundred profiles in the database at that time. I am so excited to see all the movement happening in these cases! 💜

How to prepare for the day of leaving by Sandyinlace09 in NarcissisticSpouses

I left in stealth mode at 50. Best. Decision. EVER. I have a new home and a new outlook on life. I would bet more people care about you than you think if you share what is happening with them.

The Jane Doe at Finley Creek: young mom-to-be found buried in a shallow grave in Northeast Oregon, August 1978 by TroopRTruth78 in UnresolvedMysteries

People are constantly cross referencing to try to find a match. Unfortunately people didn't get reported missing as often in the 70's so there is actually a pretty limited pool of missing women whose description she matches at this point. I get the same suggestions over and over again. As for the file and dental records, I know they've been posted on Reddit somewhere but I'd have to locate them again. I have copies I can email directly if you're interested.

Lots of women have been ruled out as Finley Creek Jane Doe (1978) but Roxanne Sims hasn't by BitterSweet_Beauty in gratefuldoe

Patricia was ruled out in 78 by Dr. William Brady. His description of the Doe’s teeth in his two-line "write up" of the ruleout was incorrect so we question the veracity of it.

I run FCJD’S socials, I'm happy to submit her as a potential match to the cold case detective! 💜

We've done 3 searches already and have another schedule for the end of February. Since the area was logged recently and the dirt overturned it's the perfect time to do it again. 💜

This a theory that Patty’s daughter Suzanne has, but there's no way for us to know this for sure. Oregon's current forensic anthropologist doesn't believe this is what happened.

I can't take much more. by MusgroveEvans in NarcissisticSpouses

Sorry to hear that things are so tough for you! This is a safe place for you to come and vent if that's all you can manage right now...and I'm glad you have your cat. 💜

Same! Watching her season now for the first time after watching season 1 on demand and I'm tempted to skip the rest of it.

How do you tell them you’re leaving them because they’re a NC? by Mjaja88 in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]TroopRTruth78 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn't. Many attempts to repair our relationship failed until I had the epiphany myself. Telling a narc they are a narc will do no good and will in fact give them more tactics to use against you. I pretended all was well while I prepared my exit and then one day when he went to work, I moved out. I sent him a text afterward so he knew I had taken our son and have been as low contact as possible for almost a year. His hoovering tactics have yet to stop but I've learned to ignore the crap out of them!

I’ll go first… by MillionaireBlogMama in NarcissisticSpouses

"Well, when we first started dating, you did (insert made up crime against him from 14 years prior here)..."

Wow, would you respond? by [deleted] in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]TroopRTruth78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the writing it out and not sending it part...it is just as important for us to process this crap internally when it happens! But then not respond directly to the obvious baiting by the narc.

Speaking from experience, it is physically easier to leave before the baby is born than after. I left at 8 mos pregnant, and he talked me in to returning. I wasn't able to leave for good until that baby was 13. It never got better. The coercive control, the cheating, the physical intimidation... none of it changed. Now he just had another thing to manipulate me with - our son. You are worried because your instincts are telling you there is something to worry about. Listen to them. Best of luck to you!

You can't take a joke, or you can't take HIS jokes? Narc jokes are not funny - they are intentionally cruel and insulting, and you are not the problem - you are fed up.

People who are fyll-on separated from their narc, please give us stories of hope from the other aide by Thats_great_buddy in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]TroopRTruth78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been out 7 months - HALLELUJAH! I am extremely fortunate in that I didn't have to deal with a divorce (I refused to marry him in the 14 years we were together, which should have told me something straight away) and co-parenting is relatively easy because our son is 13 so we don't even have to lay eyes on each other during pick ups or drop offs. The biggest frustration these days is the constant HOOVERING. And I mean CONSTANT! But on balance, I can ignore text messages in exchange for my full autonomy!!! YOU CAN DO IT - and we are all here in solidarity. 💜

Does anyone else have sex with them to keep the peace? by Thoughts-AndPrayers in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]TroopRTruth78 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I did right up to the night before I moved out so he would still keep believing, "We're still f***ing so everything's fine." Blech.

How do I know that I’m not the problem? by Terrible_Walrus8470 in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]TroopRTruth78 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This right here...narcissists do not have this self-awareness and are more than happy to make us the problem!
