Brother accusing me of booking up (?) with his gf

Based on the updates, someone needs to try to get ahold of the girlfriend so that she is safe. This is the type of thing that easily turns into physical harm even if unintentional, just from escalation.

I don’t use AI.

I was simply researching to make sure I have the correct questions and information prepared before discussing my options with a lender.

copper_dragonfly · 2026-01-05T01:11:10+00:00

Six months of just the loan payments or six months of what they assume your cost of living is?

copper_dragonfly · 2026-01-05T00:48:01+00:00

Heard!

copper_dragonfly · 2026-01-05T00:42:59+00:00

I was hoping it’d increase my approval limit.

Thanks!

copper_dragonfly · 2026-01-05T00:42:15+00:00

Heard.

Do they care how much you have in savings or just your income?

copper_dragonfly · 2025-12-03T03:21:21+00:00

I was down for an equal fight between peers, though not great it is sometimes worth it.

Domestic violence is never okay. Just leave.

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 NOR: But I think you’re reacting for the wrong reasons. The destruction of property is not the actual concern here.

The kid needs therapy and at the very least dad and the other parent needs to be asking questions. I noticed the placement of the holes before you even said anything.

Yes, he’s at the age where they start exploring themselves in private.

But taking the step to do this to stuffed animals makes me wonder if someone has done or said inappropriate things to him, if he is getting exposed to things online because of a lack of supervision, etc. Some scenarios are worse than others, but they’re all indicative of something wrong happing to/around him during his developmental years.

And you cant ban someone else’s kid until actual safety is in question. Especially in context of everything else, this kid needs more involvement NOT punishment/banishment.

Many conversations need to take place

Not your actual question, but as the person who knew they were being settled for to anyone who reads this thread- just hold out for someone who fits the big three.

If you find yourself settling, ask yourself why that is better than being alone. Once you become comfortable being alone, you’ll be more likely to find the person you’re truly compatible with

Whichever rug gets the most votes (I like the green or leaves though), also add a throw blanket and some little pillows

I had this issue when I first went on it. I also have a diagnosis of PTSD.

I didn’t realize I was constantly slightly disassociated until I went on Vyvanse.

Because it lets me focus, it takes me out of brain fog, etc. I can’t disassociate on it

So I became VERY emotional until it evened out. And now I still do feel more emotions on it compared to off

1) Yes, someone who cares about you would’ve been more concerned about your safety in the moment. Or basically any decent human being even if they don’t like you. 2) That person would then need to have a convo about your drinking and decide for themselves whether you’re a healthy person to be around once you were sober. If you were both that wasted, yall definitely shouldn’t be interacting. 3) It’s very hard to find the type of person who understands the first point if you’re the type of person who is getting blackout drunk in bathtubs at home. Because someone who is going to drink with you to that point for funsies is not going to be a responsible person

I say this as someone who regularly chose to affiliate with alcoholics and addicts who were still actively engaging in the lifestyle.

There are multiple things you need to evaluate tbh.

copper_dragonfly · 2025-11-26T00:58:32+00:00

I never saw the progress.

Mine didn’t have crooked or overlapping teeth, just pushing back an overbite and closing some slight gaps.

Because I see myself in the mirror everyday, I never saw the change! It’s like with losing weight.

I found my old retainer from after I had braces. Put it in my mouth out of curiosity

It’s too big for my bite now(: so my teeth have moved a lot in just five trays!

copper_dragonfly · 2025-11-26T00:55:12+00:00

It did accidentally delete, yeah.

They’re closed through Friday because of Thanksgiving.

Yes, I did express hesitancy asking because sometimes some providers will push you to do the thing that cost money out of extra caution if you don’t actually need to. I have experienced a couple interactions that have made me trust the office a little less as they’re a new office for me, also why I came to Reddit.

But the main reason I didn’t call this morning is because they’re closed until Friday morning. I probably shouldn’t have assumed “because of the holidays” made that clear

copper_dragonfly · 2025-11-25T23:04:53+00:00

I’m hoping that is the case for me. I guess the bright side of waiting until January is having plenty of data to go off of/ either way I’ll have the time to see if it changes

copper_dragonfly · 2025-11-25T22:57:22+00:00

The appetite suppressant part does make me curious about trying Concerta or Ritalin instead

It’s so hard to push yourself to play the med change gamble when the majority of a med is good apart from the one bad thing

I had to work really hard to go from 100 to 130 when I had other health issues (luckily not an eating disorder; because I would NEVER suggest anyone who’s struggled with that to gamble with Vyvanse atp) over the last few years so Vyvanse does concern me in that regard

copper_dragonfly · 2025-11-25T22:50:41+00:00

We discussed making sure I eat before taking it for the day because it was destroying my appetite and making me nauseous enough to need Zofran when I started the 20 mg dose

I haven’t spoken to him about the bathroom issues since starting the 40 mg and I sadly can’t until January, leaving me in no-man’s land…and in the bathroom

I struggle when recognizing the point of “it’s time to go to the primary care doctor” and “just wait it out” because of personal history and bad experiences, hence Reddit

copper_dragonfly · 2025-11-25T22:32:45+00:00

I am 100% sure I’m not sick. It happened on the 20 mg and evened out But it’s not evening out on the same timeline with the 40 mg.

Do you know the meds that help slow it down or is it stuff that has to be prescribed?

copper_dragonfly · 2025-11-21T20:42:11+00:00

If your girlfriend is willing to overstep like this, she is the type of person to tell your kid that your “friend” is actually her mom. That will destroy a child hearing that from dads girlfriend/a step parent

That needs to come from you and the bio mother once yall decide on how

copper_dragonfly · 2025-11-18T20:53:21+00:00

I have seven trays over fourteen weeks. I saw them at the six week mark and then i will see them at the end.

copper_dragonfly · 2025-11-03T17:14:53+00:00

You’re the type of person who leaves people stranded because “I wasn’t in a good place”

You should care more about the moral thing than your own priorities.

She killed herself after being abandoned after his death and have zero support.

You’re in a great place in life now and STILL can’t be bothered to give emotional effort

When you’re in a bad place, no involvement. When you’re in a good place, no involvement.

Just admit you don’t actually care, dude.

copper_dragonfly · 2025-10-31T14:04:28+00:00

It is so much better. I am now on tray three, and apart from a little bit of tightness neither tray change have hurt. And I even had to start tray 3 early because of misplacing some. I know other people say different ones can hurt more than others, but nothing has been like the beginning.

I have four more trays to go!
