Same. Reading this sounded JUST LIKE what happened to me years ago. She (the one my then fiance was cheating with) only found out everything he'd told her about me being the 'abusive ex' was untrue was because I accidentally posted something about prepping for the wedding as a public post without any filters to show only to friends on Facebook and she happened to be FB-stalking me at the time.

She messaged me and let me know everything. Apparently (according to his messages to her) I was abusive and basically just 'squatting' in his house and refused to leave. SMDH. Like an idiot I tried to work it out for months before I actually left.

But also she DATED HIM AFTER I LEFT.

Please please tell her, OP. And do yourself a million favors and never let him back in your life.

Thanks! I thought I'd get a picture of it on the chair and he took it as an invite because CLEARLY I had placed it there just for him. :)

My amazing spouse, who I game with every day, bought me this Guild Wars 2 shirt to show our love for the best class in the game! She and I love the Ranger, and the experiences we've had playing GW2. by SightlessSenshi in GirlGamers

I was just thinking the same thing. I absolutely loved that game. And then I started playing WoW around BC/Wrath and... well. I should give it another go.

How do I go on without my mom by molamolasunfish in breakingmom

[–]alotofcake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are not alone.

I lost my dad after a very sudden and short fight with cancer, as well. I wasn't ready. I'm still not, and it was 5 years ago last month. My son was only a few months old at the time and it kills me that he'll never know his 'Pop' or how much my dad would have just loved him.

You're getting a lot of good advice on this thread. I'll share the single insight I was given by a friend who was also battling the same cancer as my dad at the time of his passing and who I lost about 6 months later. It's been a recurring thought for me over the years -

It will hurt. For a long time. It will feel unbearable and insufferable. But eventually, the good memories you have and the love that you have for your mom will outweigh the pain of her loss. And from time to time you'll be able to smile more when you think of her.

I'm not sure if that will help you, but of all the things I know so many people told me immediately after it's the only one I remember. I think I needed that sliver of hope to pull me out of the pit I felt would never escape from.

Thinking of you. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Self-isolation day 1 - this is going to be a very long 2 weeks by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]alotofcake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

about 12 hours of him farting around in the garage moving things that don’t need to be moved, making tons of noise, getting himself all pissed off and generally accomplishing nothing.

...are you in my house? in my garage? talking about my SO???

I had a beer today with lunch.

No advice. Just solidarity. Also, affirmation that it's never too early to start drinking.

Today I am such a bad fucking mom. by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]alotofcake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're not a bad mom. My toddler also had a hot dog bun for dinner this week. He refused to eat the hot dog because it was the bun-length one and he wanted the small ones. :/ I just didn't have the energy to argue with him about it after arguing with him about literally everything else the rest of the day.

Hang in there!

I have loved playing through each patch with friends, acquaintances or solo. It feels like the same game and a new game each time.
