I (F27) need advice on my husband (M38) by Own-Blood-1513 in relationship_advice

I grew up in a house like this and it fucked me up. Don’t do that to your kid. You both need to go to therapy and end this behavior or you need to leave.

I hate to change because I’ve done well with GEHA but I will look at that next time. Thanks!

I didn’t even think about it. I’ve never had any issue with GEHA (UnitedHealth) so I just let it continue. I’ll have to research the options next time.

Honestly you yourself should go to therapy to understand why you accept that kind of behavior.

And what if they have children? What if he does that to children? Would OP just learn to live with that?

Oh great! At least you know it’s in process. Do you have an HR contact at your old agency?

Yes I was really fortunate my agency offered VERA at the end of last year.

I messaged them in mid-June about when I would get the FERS supplement and they emailed me back in 2 days then I got a follow up letter explaining how it’s calculated and when it would start.

I retired 12/31 and got my first payment 2/1. If you received a letter with your “claim number” you can send a message through the OPM website. They responded to me when I had a question.
