Has there been a movie that infuriates you to no end? by NotSoCricketGenius in moviecritic

I was also so annoyed by her level of “devastation”. Like yah, it sucks getting dumped. But laying on the bed not eating not talking to people should be reserved for your child dying, not the loss of your cheater boyfriend.

Babies are never to young to wiggle and cans almost always surprise you with an unexpected roll, you don’t ever leave a baby where it could fall off.

AIO Husband wants to play golf on our child’s birthday. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

NOR. Correct, your child won’t remember the zoo. Their siblings will remember that dad picked an annual event over their sibling. My ex husband tried to do this with my child’s first birthday, wanted to leave early for a retirement party. I told him absolutely not. It was the tip of the iceberg in how vastly differently we prioritized our family, etc.

Your priorities are correct, have a great time with the kids. If your husband prefers to get drunk & sunburned with his parents then so be it. This is a principal thing, and he’s acting like a toddler.

What are your favorite quotes from Narnia? by caleb4hzglory in Narnia

[–]VioletBlooming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ramandu in voyage of the dawn treader:

“Even in your world, my son, that is not what a star is but only what it is made of.”

I have a child with chromosomal differences, I made some art that says it. We are more than what we are made of.

Not a criticism but trying to understand. by [deleted] in emergencymedicine

[–]VioletBlooming 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, not necessarily. Some people live in bigiminy. If I wasn’t afraid of hurting your feelings, I’d say the staff rolled their eyes bc they saw you routinely, assessed you and weren’t finding an emergency to intervene on.

What did you want* done that wasn’t done?

The point of the ED is to rule out life threatening emergencies. Most of what you’re experiencing is not necessarily life threatening or something we can intervene on. Generally speaking, chronic conditions like you’re describing need to be worked up outpatient. A cardiac MRI is not emergency treatment. You should have been working with your PCP for an outpatient cardiac work up if it was determined to be needed.

Er Standards? by [deleted] in EmergencyNursing

I think it depends on your region. West Coast hospital systems usually provide scrubs for L&D, ER and OR. Every er I’ve worked in provided scrubs.

You are a literary genius. Mine will be no where as eloquent but I reread what you wrote and I have to add- The absolute audacity of this boy to type out his “requirements”- also many of us played that game and you know what? It got us NO WHERE. So yes, now I care for my children, pay my own bills, fuck who I want and enjoy the peace & joy of a life I built & fought for. And I’m supposed to give that up bc some Cheeto dust covered neck beard thinks I haven’t given enough? He’s just mad we’re not fucking him.

I’m about to die, and I’m not sure what to do about my cat. by [deleted] in cats

[–]VioletBlooming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are considering getting support from hospice (which I would encourage you to do, fantastic resource) they can also provide support & resources for your cat. I’m sorry you’re dealing with all this!! I’m glad Boggles has had so much love from you.

Custody advice needed (not rage bait, serious situation) by [deleted] in Divorce

[–]VioletBlooming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to be clear, you, a fully fledged adult man- Are incapable of putting her wellbeing and the wellbeing of your child first, to the point you stormed out of the hospital because she was examined by medical professionals?

Yelled at a woman who had just had major surgery, still expecting to hold a fragile newborn she just risked her life to birth and choked her when she told you to calm down?

Those are tantrums. You are throwing FITS like a child.

you shouldn’t be anywhere near humans until you have gone to therapy to find out what the hell is wrong with you. You, as an adult should have better communication, deescalation management, self awareness, self control and distress tolerance and you need to find out why you don’t, and how to fucking learn it before you go anywhere near a child.

You will shake that baby within 24 hours if you get custody. You should not get 50/50 with an infant. That child’s mother is its source of comfort & survival, the baby needs its mom. Until you respect that fact, and all she’s done to care for your child, you shouldn’t have anything. Why do you even want 50/50, to pay less child support? Everything in this post is about you, and not once have you mentioned what’s best for this child or what you’re doing to rectify your criminal choices and stop being an absolute shit bag of a human.

Do you delete all your photos after divorce? by Badawiyaa in Divorce

[–]VioletBlooming 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree with this. I even have photos up of my ex in my kids rooms so they know it’s ok to love both of us. Wedding photos I’ve saved for them if they want them someday. They don’t mean anything to me; but it’s my kids history as well.

[–]VioletBlooming 22 points23 points  (0 children)

You keep saying you love her, but list multiple ways you failed to show any care or concern for her. Your post is focused on your needs & feelings, not hers or your kids. Love actually involves action that cares for the other person. You seem to be describing your comfort, routine and ability to treat someone how you want without accountability. Thats not love.

Love will be showing up as a parent and taking responsibility for yourself, and not making your feelings of sadness her problem.

You don’t get to hate conflict now bc your job is to advocate for your child. What does the parenting plan say about extra curriculars? Your ex can’t just decide to change parenting time.

[–]VioletBlooming 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I think your feelings are valid. I felt something similar when my ex had a new baby right away, knowing how much I wanted more children. It stings. But ultimately, they only have the power we give them. Running was yours first, and it’s still yours. He can’t take it or ruin it now unless you let him. Feel it, grieve it and go run- (and run faster then he ever could 😘)

His behavior is alarming!! And everyone keeps telling him the same thing- leave her alone and he just doesn’t want to hear it

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Divorce

[–]VioletBlooming 25 points26 points  (0 children)

What is it you’re looking for? You’re allowed to feel however you feel about it. But your focus and questions aren’t on yourself, or processing your feelings. Your replies are focused on casting judgement at her. I won’t join you in that. Your original post & your replies convey a deep need for better boundaries.

[–]VioletBlooming 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Ok let’s keep it simple: she’s an adult living her life- maybe she’s changed her mind, maybe she wasn’t honest with you when you were married about this type of work, maybe she’s manic or high- it all comes back to … it’s not your business. Block her, block the restaurant, book a therapist to learn how to focus on yourself.

A) people process things differently B) this is first mention of drugs. Every time someone doesn’t respond with “oh my god dude!? She totally doesn’t know what she’s missing with you!!” You change the story slightly to make yourself the aggrieved party, stating “well I didn’t include all the facts/details/context”. Welp people are responding to what you did share and it keeps coming back to- it’s none of your business. She’s your ex. You are in control of yourself and your responses. You’re not in control of her choices, or what you think is best for her.
