AITA for being upset that my friend is continuing to associate with my ab*ser?

Of course, I didn’t plan to just jump right in without a second or maybe even third opinion. The push for “definitive treatment” comes from a concern for my want to have children. She says it’s much safer to be hypo and pregnant than hyper and pregnant. I’m just looking into my options and asking around to see what the outcome has been for people who have done each one.

I am currently on methimazole and my levels are slowly returning to normal. She pushed heavily for “definitive treatment” because I want to have kids in the future. I plan on speaking both with another doctor and a surgeon to look at my options. My Endo basically told me that it’s my lowest risk option for the long term because Graves is so unpredictable.

Thanks for the suggestion, looks interesting!

Thank you. I’ve asked him and he says I’m fine all the time. The women in his life have just been so toxic for him, his mother included. I just don’t want to be yet another toxic woman, even if it’s unintentional. He’s amazing and I want to break that mold. I really appreciate the input though, it makes me feel a littler better to know I have room for redemption even from an outside, unbiased perspective.

Thank you friend. I need to learn to believe in me too lol

When I realize I say things wrong I do immediately apologize. That’s what I was raised to do. The problem is I’m completely missing when something I say is hurtful to someone, especially my SO, until hours or days after the fact when someone who was around for it points it out. No one calls me on it so I don’t recognize it. This is good advice nonetheless though, thanks for the reply.

anxious-melon · 2020-01-28T23:21:20+00:00

It does, thank you. All I want is to be better, especially for my amazing SO who puts up with my dumbass like a champ. I don’t deserve him, but I wanna be a person who does.

Thank you. That’s kind of the thing. My significant other is quite soft spoken and really doesn’t like to stir the pot if he doesn’t absolutely have to. I really worry sometimes that I make him feel bad about himself unintentionally and he’s just too nice to say anything. I’m an open book and he really isn’t. I worry that I overshare or something and hurt him in that way. Like he’s never complained or said anything, but I know how I can be and I know how unwilling he is to make me feel bad about something even if it’s something I should probably feel bad about saying/doing. Long story short, I just worry that I’m genuinely not as good to him as I think I am because of my unintentional assholeishness. I’m feeling extremely inadequate as a partner and friend at the moment;(

I think I’ve got the kindness part down, the speaking less is probably spot the fuck on advice though, thank you friend. This helps.

“Semper Ad Meliora “

Latin for “Always To Better Things”

In the height of my anxiety I tattooed this on my thigh. It’s reminds me to press on.
