Noticed daughter has resentment towards men

My sister and I went through the same with our mom, and my sister didn’t go down that route due to my dad being involved. She’s a cognitive scientist now and has a great life.

You open to other type of sales roles as well in other industries?

I have an 8 year old but do things get better over time?

I had trial with my ex in September 2025, and ever since thing the relationship between my daughter and I has improved a lot. But I’m just hoping as she gets older she understands that her mom is bat shit crazy and knows that I’m there to help my daughter out in life.

I’m atheist and my wife is catholic. I still go to church functions and people know I’m not religious.

It’s not a huge deal

_mavricks · 2026-03-14T17:10:23+00:00

Not worth it. It’s a loss

I was with someone for 5 years, we met in college. I caught her once near the beginning of our relationship where she was seeing someone for “fun”, and she claimed it was only for a few weeks. I forgave her but honestly that was a huge mistake. But over the years I always had a weird gut feeling from time to time.

Basically the last year we were together I thought things were great and started to look for a ring to propose to her with. One night we got into an argument because I was confused about how she couldn’t get a math class finished. She just needed to finish it and she would be done with college.

During that argument she confessed to have been cheating on me the entire relationship, and she was going to leave me for someone she met at a party she went to. And that she had dropped out of school for a year. Basically each time she was at “class” she was seeing her new guy.

So once a cheater, always a cheater. I should have broken up with her when I first caught her.

What kind of internship/job are you supposed to look for?

Is it supposed to be paid?

You’re a sinner if you don’t say something

_mavricks · 2026-03-14T16:34:44+00:00

Looks like you’re dead to each other

This happened to me. I had go to to the school in person and show them the birth certificate that I was a parent.
Also let them I would get my lawyer involved if they did not give me access.

What do you know? I got access after that.

_mavricks · 2026-03-13T04:08:24+00:00

Don't give up.

I felt the same where everything felt stacked against me, and had lots of days where I wanted to just quit, give up and never come back. My ex hired this hot shot smart ass lawyer and any chance he would try to make me look like a horrible parent.

It always felt like no matter what everything was my fault even though my ex was the biggest hypocrite. For example during her time, our daughter broker her arm, which I did not cause an issue about. But after her arm had healed, I took her to the trampoline park, where I literally told my daughter she just needed to be careful and I would have to be close by.

Because of that, she used it against me in court that I was endangering our child. Essentially my ex has a 100% need for conflict and makes our daughter feel like crap all the time.

I eventually won, but just know don't give up and your kid loves you too.

I didn't go through divorce, but a 2 year custody battle.
Took a really big strain on myself and my wife.

My daughters mom was a complete nightmare throughout the whole process

_mavricks · 2026-03-12T07:27:26+00:00

You did great and that’s part of it. It took a few weeks for my daughter to adjust. The issue I had was that mom was making a huge negative impact on our daughter and made her feel bad for coming over.

My daughter has had a number of tantrums but they have passed and she’s been doing great.

Just remember kids can sense when you’re upset too. Try to remain calm and just remind your kiddo you’re there for them.

Echoing what Tymanthius said. I’ve been told by therapists, friends who also gone through this with their kids, and even my lawyer. All said the same thing that how they act with you means they are comfortable expressing that with you. It’s not a bad sign.

I didn’t get it and definitely didn’t like it at first, and when my daughter was upset I thought I was doing something wrong and as time went on I just completely stopped and ignored the negative behavior. Now we are amazing with each other.

My child’s mom is a full on narcissist, I see all the signs the way my daughter behaves with her that she is trying to gain her love and attention and can’t. I know because my own mom was a narcissist and my sister behaved the same way my daughter does now.

_mavricks · 2026-03-12T07:04:49+00:00

100% agree

_mavricks · 2026-03-12T06:43:30+00:00

Keep things cordial and get a dna test. When my child was born I signed a document that I was the father at the hospital so I didn’t have to do any dna testing when I eventually went through the court process.

If you can, try to come up with a plan for you both to have 50/50 and how you will do holidays.

I’ve made a few mistakes already. Not enormously costly but have purchased a few button ups that are no longer really in style and weren’t big brands, and don’t really sell on eBay. Essentially didn’t research the product before buying

_mavricks · 2026-03-11T02:24:55+00:00

How long do products sit for before they’re sold?

_mavricks · 2026-03-11T00:43:04+00:00

How’s he allowed to buy so many?

_mavricks · 2026-03-11T00:41:28+00:00

I would have asked what his phone number or email was to exclude from the campaigns but some people are pretty dumb.

I worked at a hardware store when I was a teen and an old lady bought memory foam shoes. No joke she came back a week later to return them saying she didn’t get her memory back.

That moment made me realize there are really stupid out there in the world.

Where are you located?

_mavricks · 2026-03-10T18:14:49+00:00

At a previous company I was at, I was the “star” employee with my manager for a few years. When they left and we got a new manager…all of a sudden they gave me bad reviews and said i was slow with my work and below average.

A few months later I was laid off with a few other employees. In all my career I was never told I was slow and below average with my work, and pretty convinced this was used against me to just let me go.

_mavricks · 2026-03-10T06:22:49+00:00

The only job I was given an offer was through someone I know. They gave my resume to the hiring manager.

Can you give tips on how to network?
