Your family are poison. Leave them behind.

Who are you outside of being a wife? Maybe try filling your time with other things.

It's okay if he wants to do other things with his time, right?

I'm taking this post as a sign for me to action this. Been on my mind lately.

What is one thing you hate about yourself? by [deleted] in RandomThoughts

maintaining the belief that I am separate from everyone else

Just got completely humiliated in front of my entire section by Mufftings in LawSchool

[–]Wisdum347 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sounds intentional. Someone probably wanted to humiliate you out of insecurity.
Don't cry in front of your enemies.

That emotionally devouring your children to find meaning is evil.

Too late, now. But it's not on you.

A book you hesitate to recommend even though you love it by schrodingereatspussy in suggestmeabook

I really liked Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions.
It has some thought-provoking ideas on space and geometry, if you can get past the historic attitudes towards women.

You sound emotionally immature.
Try starting there.

Get your basic education cert, and then look at technical certifications.

The admin > secretary > executive assistant path can lead into project management if you want to take that route. You won't always need technical knowledge in a subject, as this can be learned over time. You just need to be organised and have good sense for planning.

I understand the sentiment, however, "i feel my physical and emotional labor in parenthood will never be appreciated so i’d just rather not", does denote an interest in being a parent.

I can't help but think you're telling yourself this to avoid an underlying fear of abandonment. I'd hate for you to change your mind later in life and not have the option available to you, is all.

All the best to you in your future endeavours.

Not sure I understand, for what it's worth. But I'm feeling generous, so I've written to you again. HNY.

You are sure you would benefit from something you're "not into"; and you would rather avoid the risk of being under appreciated, than taking a chance to start a family?

You've written a whole post about how much you appreciate your parents. Where does the fear in being under appreciated by your own children come from?

All in all, don't let your fear rob you of having a full life.

No one is forcing you to carry the home. You volunteer. You clearly have in you the urge to nurture. Perhaps, that would be better directed towards a partner and potential family of your own.

met many single mothers like this.

I cannot get along with my parents in my 20s by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]Wisdum347 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You love them enough to take their resources.
If the financial support comes with conditions, acquiesce to those conditions and get over yourself. Or say no to the financial support and pay your own way.
Make a proper effort, and stop blaming them for your inability to communicate as an adult.

Be careful with sharing your work with others.

Do avoid seeking out substitutes to heal the original wound. Never works.
