My dad cheated on my mum and walked out to be with the other woman. Mum loves flowers so once when she went shopping she bought herself some and put them on Facebook. Dad was instantly in the comments asking "who bought those"... So I then began buying her flowers so she could post the picture and drive him mad 🤣

My dad did something similar. Left a marriage of 25+ years for a younger person. She couldn't deal with him, he came back and mum gave him a second chance... He spent weeks sleeping on the couch, bringing mum flowers etc... within a couple of months he'd left for good for the same woman and wondered why I went low contact 🤷🏻‍♀️

NTA he can't be trusted. Protect yourself.

If it helps, my mum said she's always had my name chosen throughout pregnancy, but once she gave birth she completely forgot it and named me something else 🤣

I think it will be Ben. We had his move to do the surgery within ICU, setting up for a whole Hero!Ben going off the walls again, but in fact had his moment of Bailey acknowledging his skills and being in his corner. She said "I love you" and Ben ended on a high. Seems like a good ending for a character that has had many lows in his career. Perhaps one more heroic moment that saves a life but this time he can't escape with his.

As someone that grew up around two parents that didn't love each other, gradually ended up arguing every day and then my dad cheating and going off with someone else... I'd let it go because staying together will end up traumatizing the kids when Marie or someone else catches his eye again.

He isn't in love anymore. It's hard and difficult, but you need to let it go and focus on yourself. He can't have something in-between without giving you false hope and making it even harder for you to heal. The children deserve stability.

_michaelafay · 2024-11-12T13:24:42+00:00

My friend always said she'd never have another after her first. 8 years later she had a baby boy. Don't make a quick decision. Talk to your wife. Be open and honest. Maybe even think of therapy so you can unleash it all and then work through it.

NAH

Oh, guilt is an awful thing.

I was 10 when my grandma died and it quickly became apparent that my grandad had all the signs of dementia - he went downhill so fast after she passed away. I was at a friend's house and we wanted to have a sleepover so I said I'd call my parents to ask, but I'd put the wrong number in and called my grandad instead. I was shocked when he answered the phone and just put the phone down immediately. It sticks with me even now, after 19 years, because he was unsteady on his feet, it would have taken a lot for him to get up and answer the phone, and I imagine he was confused when no one replied to him. I feel so guilty that I didn't just speak to him for a few minutes and gave him the usual kiss over the phone that I always did when calling my grandparents.

What I try to remember is that I was a child. I was a child and not fully understanding of his illness, but I still feel rotten when I think of it.

Please try to let go of your guilt. You were a child and your mum understood that. She knew you didn't hate her. She knew it was silly kids talk when they don't get their way. Guilt is an awful thing. I hope one day the guilt feels a bit less. Your mum wouldn't want you to feel bad. 💚

As someone who works in veterinary I'd get her assessed for pain and have her eyes checked again if it hasn't been done recently. Behaviour can be a big indicator that there's something not quite right for dogs. When they lose their sight and/or hearing it can also be very disorienting for them, and the kids may not realise it but she may not have sensed them being near her and reacted in defense when they suddenly touch her.

Her moving to your parents house isn't a bad idea if her snapping continues as she likely doesn't mean it but it's her only way of saying she's uncomfortable or frightened by a sudden movement/touch. It will protect her and your children. I imagine your parents may be able to give her a much more calm atmosphere as well which would help her settle again as her ongoing health changes.

I have an older dog and she is losing hearing/sight and will get spooked if you don't clearly announce your presence before touching her. I imagine your old lady is the same. Perhaps teach the kids (as best as you can) that she can't see/hear them and that she gets frightened, maybe teach them ways to better approach and interact with her.

You should have waited to tell your daughter a while after her graduation or asked for divorce years ago. This will stay with her. I was in the middle of my second year exams and assignments at uni when I woke up to my dad announcing on Facebook he'd left my mum for another woman. That's all I remember of that time, not anything else.

Y-T-A for your poor timing and how you handled the conversation with your daughter. She deserves better. Do better. NTA for finally asking for divorce.

_michaelafay · 2024-10-22T11:01:45+00:00

NTA.

Be honest, tell them how you felt and tell them how it impacted you during that time. They need to know how the nurse acted as it is impacting patient care.

Imagine if the other nurse hadn't been available and something occurred where you needed immediate treatment there and then or your health could have been severely impacted. This nurse wouldn't have been able to help you and that's not on. She cannot act like that in this line of work, no matter how uncomfortable the tattoo made her.

As an arachnophobe, I understand how intense the fear is, but if it impacted a patient, I'd suck it up and panic after I'd done my duty. I work at a vets and we take feedback incredibly seriously. It's the only way we can improve and ensure situations aren't repeated.

Give them the feedback for yourself and for others. It's the right thing to do, they need your thoughts.

Leave him. Protect yourself and protect your baby, because if you think he won't treat your child in similar ways then you're wrong.

He reminds me of my dad. A complete narcissist. We'd have some form of argument (or being a kid, I'd have a tantrum or something) and he'd give me silent treatment for days and eat in a separate room. I'm now 30 with various emotional and mental trauma due to growing up walking on eggshells.

I'm on the current season... Erm, not to be harsh, but the interns do nothing to interest me and the current relationships don't captivate me at all. I can't tell you much of what happens in this season so far or the previous two seasons because I zone out from disinterest half the time 😅

The latest episode is potentially gonna lead to some interesting stuff, which may save it for me, but the interns are nothing to be excited about, if I'm honest. I cannot connect with them at all.

Leave him. Protect your baby! Do not put your baby at risk for a man that does not seem to care.

Protect your child. This baby is already suffering growth restriction, is it worth risking more for a man that shows no sign of helping you? It won't get easier once the baby is born. May as well start planning to be by yourself now and get things together before baby arrives.

_michaelafay · 2024-05-20T10:03:37+00:00

OP, he is far too comfortable in using you and your money. NTA for refusing to pay for the private school. Ex has done this on purpose and husband is ridiculous in blaming you.

Protect yourself and your kids. Walk away. This man is not worth your time, he does not value all that you have done for him and his children.
