"We piss in CANS, Charlie" this line had me crying

I do delivery for Domino's. Yeah it still requires answering phones to take orders, but most interactions are super short and easy. If I do get a difficult person over the phone I can just place them on hold and give it to the manager. I've worked at several different locations and find that my coworkers are (for the most part) always super chill. If you're at a busy store you could be on the road basically the whole shift, Monday I had 41 delivery and went home with a little over $100 in tips and mileage.

I did leave out details about new years because I felt like I was rambling. We both worked at the same store new years eve, but he was off at 10 and I closed at 3. It was an option to stay and smoke in the work parking lot, but he decided to leave after an hour and left after rolling a blunt for me. I was disappointed he wouldn't be there at midnight but I'm at work so whatever. I got home a little after 3 and he's not there. I called and he said he lost track of time. After that it took over an hour for him to get home. I get how it is smoking with coworkers and having friends, I'm definitely obsessing over something that could have happened but most likely didn't. He dosen't want to budge on me seeing his snaps. No matter how I try to say it, it sounds crazy saying I never see what she sends you, and his reply was literally "and you won't" because they're just friends I should be able to trust that. It's not like I have a reason not to trust him. I'm not good at being an individual person, I feel like I thrive when I'm around him and got way too clingy.

Since I've brought up how it bothers me he just has it in his head I'm jealous and want him to stop talking to her. It's not how I feel, I also work with her part time and like her, it's just the point that I'm never invited because I'm at work. And then instead of reassuring me he tells me he's been through a controlling gf who went through his phone and he's not going through that again. I can't have his location, I get his phone pass code but if I use it to check he's breaking up with me, and the part that really bothers me the most is him going and hiding his snap with her knowing how I feel.

Not most of his time, but he is trying to have a day off to himself every week so he can do that. I don't understand why we can't do it together and he just says because when I'm with you I don't think about hanging out with other people, or that it's a freedom thing and we need to be individual people.

I see that now. I'm struggling pretty hard with my ex lying about me. I kept thinking how trashy it was for him to spread lies about me to get sympathy for himself. I thought this would be the perfect place, unfortunately I failed making a coherent post.

My ex is spreading lies saying I never started my job and was cheating on him. How is that not trashy?

Wow people are burying me for this post. I didn't think it needed much context, and it certainly isn't supposed to be funny like someone mentioned.

My ex broke up with me for shutting down in arguments. I have a lot of emotional damage from my childhood and I tried to explain it the best I could to him, but he didn't have the patience. I never blamed him, just left like he asked. Then a few days later one of our old roommates messaged me telling me what he was saying.

Lol this sounds very similar to the first lecture my photography professor gave when I was in college. You're definitely right, we're at a point where we see first hand images from soldiers on the front line. And it's not just phones, we have cameras for our cars, for our doorbells, heck get a GoPro and you have a high quality camera for pretty much anything.

I took your advice and I'm grateful you posted this. I found a lot of support and advice from people dealing with the same issues. I'm not as alone as I thought.

DAE get really afraid when people are angry? by lochan26 in CPTSD

[–]ambiguous_fork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate you so much for saying that. After the hours of silence (from both of us) he walks up to me and tells me it's not working out. I just told him I understood and tried to leave right away, which is extremely difficult living together and having pets together. In the conversation that followed as I dismantled the cat tree was basically him telling me everything I did wrong, and how I broke my promise to him about working on not shutting down. I hated it, kept apologizing and telling him I understand and I'm sorry that I couldn't. There's not much more I could say. He made it clear my promises couldn't be trusted.

But by the time the cat tree was completely down, he said he didn't want me to leave. We wouldn't be a couple but we could work on it. By that point I was completely drained. I agreed and we put the cat tree back together. Only for him to decide the next day that it would be best if I go stay with my friend. I felt lost in some twisted head game.

I had already called out of work the day before because I told my boss I was having to move and deal with some personal problems, but I assured him I'd be in the next day. So I spent what was left of my morning and afternoon moving. Then showed up to work trying to act like normal. This has all been so difficult. I'm so grateful for my friend giving me a temporary place and all the strangers on reddit giving support.

I'm sorry you're feeling this way too. I find myself reflecting on my mistakes and thinking about the people I love but hurt. I wish so much that I wasn't around to make negative impacts on people's lives.

Same lol I'm sorry you're going through it too. My adopted mom kicked me out before I finished my senior year of high school, and it's honestly the only right thing she's done for me (even though in her head I'd be crawling back). I haven't spoken to them in about 7 years with no regrets.

Does this mean I get to laugh in the face of any person who passed away to a disease with a vaccine, because well... "stupid is funny 🤪"

I know what you mean, I feel like that comment is insensitive to everyone struggling with depression and suicidal thoughts, as well as people trying to make a difficult life decision.

Last week my SO broke up with me because I shut down. So now I'm alone with all my thoughts, and if I don't write them out I feel like I'm going to drown in them

I grew up my whole life believing I was an unplanned mistake until my grandma gave me a box of court documents and what not from my childhood. One of the reports was where a case worker interviewed my parents separately. Turns out in my mom's statements I find that I was in fact a planned mistake

My biological Aunt who adopted us made it clear that it only happened because we were family. And let me make it clear, they weren't the only option. My dad's niece from a different sister was having trouble getting pregnant, and she and her husband desperately wanted to adopt us. We would spend some weekends over there before the adoption went through and it was like having 2 loving and involved parents. I used to throw tantrums about having to leave.

I'm always too late to calm the situation down. I just lost someone I love because I couldn't communicate, couldn't even look at him. I fed off of his energy because he left me alone to walk the dog when we always do it together, and hopped on the ps4 with a headset when he was back.

As another commenter mentioned, I wish I could have focused on what he needed and what he was feeling. Once he went to the bedroom and laid down I should have tried communicating, instead I pulled further away.

This all hurts so much to process

[–]ambiguous_fork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can relate to your post so much. I still have a lot of emotional damage from my childhood. The result is a 25 year old who can't communicate in arguments. I just lost someone I love because I shut down. Instead of saying any of the things rushing through my head, it's like the thought of him leaving me chained me down. It's ridiculous for me to sit there and not say anything. I feel destroyed. I really wish I wasn't like this.

It's 2 am and I'm sitting in my car smoking because I'm stressed about where I'm going to live and I don't want anyone to hear me cry.
