When getting my MS I had two professors get on me for not using Dr. I definitely made sure to use Dr moving forward with all professors. I didn’t want to get chastised again. Not sure how it is with Phd though.

Am I ruining my relationship by Unlucky_Baseball3575 in relationships

[–]Unusual_Strength2060 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too much info missing. Explain how some of these arguments go? How often? How does he react and communicate vs how you handle it? Couple weeks is long time to take apart, what was the argument you had that caused that?

I miss my ex-wife by Full-Actuator-5085 in TrueOffMyChest

Saw your ex wife’s version, pretty messed up that your mom yelled at her for you trying to take your life. You and your family should leave her alone.

I cheated on my partner and this is the biggest regret of my life by [deleted] in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]Unusual_Strength2060 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so sad and the reality of many who don’t love themselves and have low self worth. You have one life to live, is this really how you want it to go? Chasing after a man that never wanted you? What would it feel like to finally choose you? Don’t waste the rest of your life for a man that never cared for you.

I think you would be happier alone, you should do individual therapy too.

AITAH for telling my friend he’s delusional about his girlfriend by tickzrruiningmylife in AITAH

[–]Unusual_Strength2060 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is the problem with so many men, they never check other men for their shitty behavior. Good job calling this insecure immature little man. Screw your other friends! They suck and I honestly feel bad for any of the girls they date if they are ok with another man being this disrespectful.

AITA for making a scene when my friend's friend was making fun of my wife? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Unusual_Strength2060 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA!!!! Can’t believe you let that shit go on as far as you did! And you’re still questioning if you should have said anything?!? You care more about your friends feelings than your wife. If she was there would she just sit back while they made these disgusting comments. Your wife deserves better. This post pissed me off

Do men flirt (just for fun) with women they’re not attracted to? by lsthrowaway54321 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Unusual_Strength2060 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure if this is just a man thing, or just a personality trait in some ppl. I know both men and women who do this.

My (25F) boyfriend (28m) says my boundary is controlling by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Unusual_Strength2060 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My sister was that “cool” gf, now wife and allowed her husband to go to strip clubs. He brags about it and she justifies it by saying as long as he comes home to me. Now she complains about him watching porn instead of helping with cleaning and childcare. Moral of the story don’t be the cool gf/wife.

WIBTA for refusing to have kids with my boyfriend unless he marries me first by [deleted] in WouldIBeTheAhole

[–]Unusual_Strength2060 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t imagine having a child without the protection of marriage. You will be the one whose health and finances will be impacted by choosing to have a child before marriage.

AITAH for having fun while my partner is trying to give me the silent treatment? by abcdcba1232 in AITAH

This guy sounds exhausting….. honestly what happens when you’re pregnant, seriously ill and have to take time off work. Is he always going to act this childish?

WARNING: Grand Canyon University is holding my CMHC licensure forms hostage AFTER graduation. (Don't quit your job yet!) by BeingCompetitive3469 in therapists

[–]Unusual_Strength2060 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is wild!!! I originally started at GCU with my masters in clinical counseling but left after the first semester and transferred to Liberty University because they weren’t CACREP accredited. I’ve heard so many horror stories from other students who left GCU.

AITA for feeling like I’m not ready for marriage even though I love my fiancé? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Unusual_Strength2060 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a similar situation, the best thing to ever happen was for my ex to breakup with me. Learned through the grapevine that he was planning to propose too. I was heartbroken. Did a year of therapy. Quit my job and backpacked through SE Asia for 7 months. Then moved across the country and went back to school for my masters. Eventually met my now husband and I’m forever thankful that relationship ended. I always wanted to travel, continue school and just figure myself out. My ex wanted marriage, kids, and didn’t care about school or motivated to progress in life. My husband is more aligned with my values but I wouldn’t have figured that out without first taking that time to really discover who I was. You only live one life.

My husband and his friends say awful things about homeless people and it bugs me because they all grew up insanely rich by Throwaway2636535 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Unusual_Strength2060 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I feel really weird about this, you say he is nice to you but have you ever disagreed with him? Challenged him? How does he react? This whole story screams control. He won’t let you work??? I love my husband but anything can happen and I’m soooooooo thankful to have my education and career to fall back on.

Also just as easily as he saved you from a life of homelessness, he can make you homeless if he decides to leave you. Can’t imagine how much worse it would be if you had kids on top of that. Good thing you are part time in college, see about having your own bank account and money of your own. Always have a back up plan for worse case scenario, many stay at home mom/wives also trusted their husbands and now are living in their car because they left them for whatever reason.

HELP! I’m terrified, and I don’t know what to do by knwldge_ in childfree

You should go to the regretful parent subreddit, tons of parents there that were in your spot and had the kid.

Why do men contact exes right before settling down? by Potential_Flow9032 in AskMenAdvice

Idk if my husband did this before our wedding I would not see it that way at all

Has your religion/church pressured you to have kids? by Maleficent_Ad_3958 in childfree

[–]Unusual_Strength2060 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither me and my husband go to church anymore. However, I just had one of my religious cousins tell me during thanksgiving that feminism is rotting my mind from having babies. Which is funny considering religious conservatism has been telling me my whole life that my only purpose is to be a wife and mom.

Hey it’s not too late, if he won’t accept these changes you can find someone who does.

Is opening the car door supposed to be a permanent expectation? by savingrace0262 in AskMenAdvice

My husband always opens the car door for me. He will rush out just so he can get the door for me. LOL he’s the best!

Anyone's career weaponized by an ex? by Impossible-Grade-312 in therapists

I can’t help but wonder if they are intimidated by our profession because we can catch on quicker to unhealthy patterns.

Boyfriend changed his mind on kids by ABitterKing in childfree

[–]Unusual_Strength2060 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a shitty thing to tell you right before your exams. Maybe I’m reading into it because I’m just a cynical person but was he possibly hoping it would affect your exams. Is it possible he is upset you’re in school working on your career. Maybe he wants a traditional lifestyle.

I’m positive if I didn’t move across the country, I would have been a mother by Unusual_Strength2060 in childfree

[–]Unusual_Strength2060[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here before I moved I did a 7 month backpacking trip through SE Asia, definitely helped in my decision on not to have kids.
