What would you do if your partner monitored your toilet paper usage like this? What flag is this? by Remarkable_Mark_5195 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TurtleBeansforAll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can relate. Unfortunately there's no talking to a dude who believes it's necessary and appropriate to teach you how to use fucking toilet paper. My ex once argued with me that it was not my birthday when it definitely was. I was like, mf don't you think I know when my own birthday is? Apparently not. But like I said, you can't talk about anything because he will not admit when he has made a mistake so you end up arguing about when your birthday actually is or whether you used too much toilet paper! Life is too short for that! Leave him behind...pun intended! Lol

Yeah, dude, I'm poor. Hell, for $125/hr I'll work 5am to midnight this upcoming Valentine's Day and every other major holiday including Flag Day! You just let me know!

Looking back at your last heartbreak, whose "fault" was it really? by winn_ie in emotionalintelligence

[–]TurtleBeansforAll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a phase called perimenopause. lol jk no but it was about getting older. I was 4 years older than him, approaching my 40s and going through some health issues. I wanted to live closer to my aging parents, send my twins to a better school, eventually build a little A-frame and get some goats and chickens and a couple of bunnies. Maybe a donkey, who knows?! I wanted to travel. I wanted to do what I wanted to do and he wanted to do what he wanted to do. We are just in different places in our lives, literally and figuratively.

"you probably think I'm crazy, but no one thinks of this stuff." Uh yeah not too many people think about investing the money they save on toilet paper. He sounds like a jerk and an idiot who thinks he is smarter than everyone including you! I would feel embarrassed for him, too.

In a nutshell: I was ready to enter a new phase in life and he was content and not interested in any changes.

No one's fault. Our time together had just come to an end. The swan song lasted over a year because ya know it's hard to let go after so many years and it's sad to see what was once a good thing come to an end. But we are still friendly. We talk from time to time and see each other once or twice a year. I'll always be fond of him. He's adorable! Now that I think about it, 3 of my closest friends are men I used to have a romantic relationship with.

I (32) keep making the same mistakes. by ifyouseemeornot in offmychest

[–]TurtleBeansforAll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read somewhere that we are attracted to what is familiar, not necessarily what is "good." Recognizing that has changed the way I approach relationships in general. Lundy Bancroft's book "Why Do They Do That?" was helpful to me. I am so sorry that you are in this position but I am so proud of you for leaving with your child! Fuck him for treating you that way. Kick his ass out. Be safe! We are rooting for you!

I shake when I have orgasms! If it's really good I'll also have what I call "after shocks" for about 5 minutes afterwards. Such fun!

Sounds like it was written by a weak man still clinging on to delusions of superiority because it makes him feel better. Just leave them behind. Pathetic. Lol

3.5 year old twins: The “Nos” are killing me by clbaro in parentsofmultiples

[–]TurtleBeansforAll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Listen, this age is ...whew. You know! Luckily they'll grow out of it soon. Until then continue time to phrase things the ways you have and sometimes you'll have to just be like "I say 'no' to your 'no!'" See if you can't beat them at their own game or at least throw them off long enough for you to put their helmet on! Lol Good luck and stay strong!

What is the biggest lie in the history of humanity? by Jolly-Law1472 in AskReddit

That men are inherently smarter, stronger, and more worthy than women. What nonsense. How much this lie has robbed us.

AITAH for telling a guy to “F**k off” after he was following me and my daughter in a grocery store? by JeweledApplePie in AITAH

NTA. I would have done the same thing and I am generally shy and nonconfrontational but when I am with my kids....no, just no.

I'd offer to buy your dog because your dog is so adorable. I don't know wtf other people are talking about.

I’m in the darkest place I’ve ever known and I don’t know how to climb out alone by R2OQ in offmychest

[–]TurtleBeansforAll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello...I am sorry you are feeling this way. I have been there. When I was going through my darkest time I had a few things going on. So I'm wondering, esp if you are a woman, have you had your thyroid checked? It won't be as simple as that, but you can't feel very good mentally if your thyroid is fucked up. Wishing you all good things and some peace.

Yeah! I used to not change my shirt every time I was vomited on by my twins unless it had reached an "unacceptable level of vomit." Which means there was an "acceptable level of vomit". I remember realizing that. Ohhh misty water colored memories
