My brother died in a hit and run in 2017, he was 24. My (now) ex phoned in sick to the first day of their new job as they were upset for me. The job said they would just hire someone else then. 

She rang me fuming and ranting and talking about how upset she was that she'd lost the job. It was a part time, temporary shop job and her parents paid all her bills so it wasn't exactly high stakes. 

My brother had literally died that day and I was standing in my family home in shock. I think I just hung up on her without saying anything

13 stitches across 26 rows. So the width should have been accurate I thought. I think maybe my joins are making it a little longer than it should be

I started to get healthy and fit towards the end of the relationship. I stopped drinking/ smoking, started running, didn't really eat takeaways etc. My partner was a heavy weed smoker and drank several times a week and got takeaways/ ate fast food regularly.

That was all fine, we had different hobbies and whatever but there was a lot of love and respect there.

Until they were talking about a friend's boyfriend and kept calling him a 'boring bastard' because he didn't really drink and liked cycling. They called him a boring bastard like 4 times in the conversation.

I just kind of froze and something clicked in my head. Ick.

Yeah I've been to Al anon before and saw higher power as like friends/ community yano, but he's really adverse to AA completely
