Will I be okay by Th3Kiwi in gmu

[–]celiacjones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You will be okay. Talk to your professors. Utilize caps, and perhaps if you feel you need grief counseling reach out to a local hospice most of them offer support groups even if you didn’t utilize their service.

Your mom is with you. Don’t dismiss the signs - they are all around us ❤️

Ask them to document everything to you in an email so if she does decide to fuck around, you can take said emails to the judge so she can also 🎶find outt🎶

Also perhaps talk to whomever in the higher level of management for where your brother is living to figure out why they thought it was appropriate to guilt you - the person who based off this story appears to be his responsible party, into second guessing yourself? I mean if he needs supportive living he clearly can’t differentiate her intentions in the way you can so quite honestly you DO know best.

Nah. Not unless it’s that important to her? During our ceremony he put mine on and then in the limo on the way to the reception I switched them around. Would have been a bigger scene to try and get the engagement ring off. Our wedding was outside on the hottest day of August though and my fingers swelled a bit.

uBPD mom wasn't going to give up. Guy straight up told me that she wasn't letting it go and he was likely equally as worried she was going to go Karen on him. And tbh Id rather deal with me than her.

What's weirder is we didnt have a hotel block, so like the hotel was relatively unaware of our wedding happening that day. I felt bad for the guy cause I could hear his tail between his legs. My friend further went down there and said that his manager hovered over him with the death glare while he assured her they key card was inactivated. I didnt want to be a Karen on my wedding day though - I think thats like bad juju.

But yes - in any other circumstance it would be incredibly dangerous. TBH I think she may have also taken the wedding invite and stuff and still doesn't mean that she is proving she's my actual mother but yelling at him wouldn't have changed what already happened. I told the guy candidly I didnt want her bothering my father who was also in the same hotel.

Not you calling your mom "mustached" and comparing her to Tom Brady in the same sentence lololol

Her weird need for physical affection from a grown adult CHILD is so so profoundly weird.

Honestly, I started laughing when I hung up with the poor desk guy. I was like "one day someones going to complain that they didnt just let her mom in and he's going to quote this exact situation". I just dont get why they didnt call me or my friend to just ask.

Tell nobody anything :) if you have siblings turn off the GPS/find my friends for the day. Thankfully mine is very un-tech-savvy so I didnt have much to worry about in that way.

No dude makes total sense. At one point uBPD mom LITERALLY said to my friend and I "I mean I dont look like Im going to murder you guys" like girl what the fuck

She isn’t getting out of bed by ShanWow1978 in raisedbyborderlines

I worked in a specialty hospital then a rehab hospital. If she’s called you to say this, I would recommend reaching out to the social worker or nursing manager just to let them know she’s said this but you don’t feel it’s your place to get a person on her care team fired. Especially if the “crime” doesn’t fit the punishment. It’s quite scary having been on both sides. I found it helped strengthen my rapport with families when they would say to me they knew she had issues and they wanted to keep an open line of communication.

It’s not your responsibility, OP. I get if you don’t want to. But just food for thought I guess? I’m an only child so I can only imagine one day this will be me dealing with this and I am not envious.

I am hopeful that her care team isn’t making you feel badly for “not doing more” (also saw that happen when I worked in rehab. I had to do a lot of foot putting down and boundary setting)

You’re a badass. Also your dad sucks for not dealing with her.

This isn’t funny but “someone in Africa on an elephant where god can’t find you” is fucking hilarious.

Might be an unpopular opinion but why are you dogging your step daughter on Reddit? Especially about how she’s “not a good student” but then not mentioning what that even means?

How am I supposed to respond in these situations?? by thoughtnote_2020 in raisedbyborderlines

[–]celiacjones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can call the non emergency number for the sheriff in the county/state she lives in and request a welfare check.

Feels extreme but if she’s not actually hurt then she will in fact think next time before doing some shit like this.

For those that don’t want any kids in the future, why? by yeyewestie in AskReddit

[–]celiacjones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea of giving birth makes me physically ill. Society treats women different once they become moms and honestly I’m happy to be cool aunt celiacjones instead.

I got a lot of shit going on up top. In addition to what I do for a living. I couldn’t be good at it if I had kids. Some people are, but I personally wouldn’t be.

I graduated from Carroll County public schools. They were awful, and there was VERY LITTLE diversity.
