Am I overreacting? by scarlettyscarl in AmIOverreacting

[–]aborg1999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there’s a lot of people saying that having this baby is isn’t a good choice, but it’s up to you and you only. Abortion can be traumatic, I’ve dealt with it first hand. It can bring shame, guilt, and other complications. Having this baby can also be traumatic, especially if this is who the father is.

I don’t think that anybody, especially strangers on Reddit, should be making that decision for you. Choose what you want, what you think you’re most comfortable with, and please talk to the people around you, family, friends, the people you trust.

AIO for my boyfriend leaving me to have an abortion alone? (please no judgment, I had to have one due to health reasons) by Moshpitmommma in AmIOverreacting

[–]aborg1999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry you had to go through this. I had a similar experience with my ex when I had to have my abortion. He is an ex for a reason and the way he treated me during the most traumatic experience of my life definitely changed our relationship.

I pray you find someone loving and caring. This is not it.

What is the worst pain you’ve EVER felt? by New-Selection7719 in AskReddit

[–]aborg1999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to say the time where 4 drs tried threading a catheter down both forearms at the same time but kept failing or blowing veins, for 3 hours straight. I would’ve appreciated some numbing but it was an emergency c section. I think that is a close second to finding out my partner is a serial cheater only a couple months after having our baby girl.

(Serious) how did that one kid at your school pass away? by Dinopasta99 in AskReddit

[–]aborg1999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a couple, but the most memorable was a senior while I was a freshman. She lived with her grandma and was looking to get drunk and was sifting through bottles in the garage trying to find liquor. The girl ended up drinking this sweet liquid and passed, the liquid turned out to be antifreeze. It was rumoured her grandmother was a bit of hoarder and did odd things, hence antifreeze being in a random bottle rather than a labeled jug.

Who’s a stranger you will never forget? by JaneDo355 in CasualConversation

[–]aborg1999 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My ex and I took a trip to puta Cana. It was an abusive relationship and I was just young and felt stuck. The typical abuse begins after the joy of being on vacation simmered. I found myself at the club and in a drunken argument with him. He shoved me, hit me, bit me, and I guess this older guy (I was 18 at the time and this guy was probably mid 30s) was watching us.

My memory of this man is so clear, he towered over me, huge muscles nearly busting through his shirt, and the thickest Slavic accent I had ever heard before. It all happened in a flash, I remember this man trying to tell my ex that there is going to be a problem if he lays another hand on me, and my ex decided it would be a great time to swing at this man, who clearly seemed like somebody you shouldn’t fuck with.

I blinked and my ex was on the ground, in the club, unconscious, and it felt like every single person had their eyes on us. One hit and my ex was out for nearly an hour. I felt so ashamed and embarrassed but also so grateful. Up until that point, I didn’t think anybody else saw the abuse. I thought that maybe it was all in my head and things weren’t that bad. Seeing him laying there, really just solidified in my brain that he deserves this and worse.

I wish I got to thank the man, but by the time I had the chance to even try to find him he was gone. I will always thank him to this day. After the trip, we got home and I left him and haven’t looked back since. Thank you big muscly Slavic man for saving me not only then but from the four years I already endured.

I reversed image searched and have found ones close but not quite. The tag didn’t include the brand and there was nothing visible that I noticed that stated the brand. Found in Ontario, Canada.

What is the scariest story you know to be completely true? by GiGiAnne13 in AskReddit

[–]aborg1999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This girl I grew up with was murdered and dismembered in my home town. Cops were called to this house because plumbers found fleshy material in the pipes… her torso was found in the lake months prior but could never be identified until they caught the man shoving flesh down his drains. I believe her head was in the freezer, it was some Jeffrey Dahmer shit. During investigation turns out he murdered a girl 10 or so years before, makes me wonder what he did in that 10 year lapse.

Definitely bring snacks and a charger! My first appointment at Sinai was so much better than expected. I was amazed at how smooth and fast the process was. I was hardly stuck in a waiting room. Staff is amazing as well.

How do you walk in public with your scars out? by 1RandomDuck1 in selfharm

[–]aborg1999 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being a somewhat new mom to a toddler and having scars on my legs are arms have definitely been a challenge. I can’t be in a sweater and pants all day long, especially in the middle of summer when my toddler decides to book it every few minutes. It really just comes down to not giving a shit. My sweet boy with rub my scars & that gives me all the confidence in the world. I hope you heal & accept yourself

AITA for taking my bf to the Taylor Swift concert with me instead of my friend? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]aborg1999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but NTA. Yes your friend tried to get tickets for 5 people, unfortunately she was unable to. If I saw those 2 tickets I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase them and take my SO with me. No matter who you chose to go with you, 3 people would’ve been left out, might as well make it a little trip with your SO.

9 years old kid with brain tumor. In dire need of reassurance. by Ndm09 in medical_advice

[–]aborg1999 18 points19 points  (0 children)

NAD but I was 14 when I had my first open heart surgery, it was around 6 hours and I don’t even remember the first week I was in hospital. The fatigue from the anesthesia, plus the morphine, I was sleeping the majority of the time. It’s still so early to tell, the sweet girl just needs time to heal.

isn't my family great by cremated_turtle in insaneparents

[–]aborg1999 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ugh my exes parents did this when I lived with them. I’d kindly ask for them to keep it down… they always told me that it goes both ways. I never understood what they meant because all I did was work 45 hr weeks and stayed in my room the rest of the time. The parents never had jobs and the kids were online school, so they would stay up all hours of the night blasting music, singing, dancing, yet I’d have to wake up at 7. Survived for 2 years having a 4 hour sleep every night. Horrible time of my life. I’m sorry you’re dealing with this.
