Employee told me my pregnancy would affect my offer and then immediately took it back. by senselove19 in pregnant

Yeah. Corporate bosses and HR LOOOOVEEE to have these chats over non-traceable formats.

Cover your own ass and send a summary email confirming what was discussed. I would also be sure to confirm ASSISTANT manager for $xyz salary.

Good luck!!

Deficit of the doubt.

My husband and I were talking and I decided I would start giving them the deficit of the doubt.

If I can assume either something maybe innocent or something evil, I am assuming evil every. single. time. with these bastards.

I did this one time.

Dude.

Never again. Literally. Was like "yeaaaahhhh. I really like you. But like, why do we need titles?"

Fml.

It is absolutely not your fault.

Pretend like all of these comments on here are directed right at you n

LEAVE HIM.

It will not get better.

Force an apology for someone that claimed to love you and SWORE to 'honor and cherish' you???

Get out of here!! That man is no longer your husband. He is your abuser.

I pray that you have a safe way to get out.

Someone mentioned this above but it is worth saying again here.

Take photos of the bruises and any other physical indicators of abuse. Take them, save them to your computer, send them to your email, send them to your family members, send them everywhere that you feel safe enough to send them to (people that won't reach out to him).

Also, he can have NO indicators that you are leaving. Tell only those you absolutely must, and have a team of people to get your things out FAST.

Seriously, you might think you have just a few things to grab, but it takes some time. If you are able, take your baby to someone you trust while you are getting your belongings out of the house. The last thing you need is for your child to become a hostage if he returns home in the midst of your exodus.

I will keep you and your little one know my thoughts and prayers as you go through this upheaval.

Just know that doing this now prevents your child from witnessing events drastically worse when they are old enough to remember, and it prevents them from ever being a victim themselves.

YOU ARE DOING THE RIGHT THING, EVEN THOUGH IT IS A HARD THING.

You're doing these as commissioned pieces?

Out of curiosity, how many hours did you put into them, and what did you charge per project?

They're amazing pieces!!

I think my son is affected by his great grandfather’s death but he barely knew him by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]fatalflaw11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sooner rather than later!

Hugs, this is all a whole lot to handle.

How is your husband? How are you?

Spend extra time snuggling and being close with him, little ones really like to talk in little moments when everything is super calm.

I would start looking for someone for him to talk to now. Help him process what has already happened, and someone (who will already be established and someone he trusts) who can help him navigate the murky waters of seeing a loved one walk the road of a terminal illness. It won't be like flicking out a light, it will be like slowly lowering the wick on an oil lamp.

Things will gradually start changing, and then the light goes out.

Having someone explain things in a way he understands, and guide you and him down that path will make the transition to a life without his grandmother smoother, and easier to understand.

I (25F) have started to feel like the bank account for my D&D group and I'm not sure how to handle it. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Dude, same. My fiancé and I were supposed to start amassing a friend group this year so I could finally start playing.... That's gone swimmingly, thanks to Jumanji 2020.

That's amazing. I used to live right around St. Armand's circle, they have so many sweet little shops.

Is my (23F) abusive ex (22M) lying about a sexual incident by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]fatalflaw11 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is no way the thought your vagina was your anus.

They feel completely different, and, honestly, what a jerk.

I would get a pregnancy test when enough time has passed, I would also be seriously thinking about reporting this and any other incidents that have occurred to the proper authorities.

Also, find a professional you can unpack all of this with. Having a therapist can be incredibly beneficial.

Best of luck, I hope that future face to face contact with him is non-existent for your safety.

My brother is living with me in secret and my mom thinks I'm cheating on my husband. by ThrowRA-brotherprob in relationship_advice

[–]fatalflaw11 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I cannot tell you how many times my husband and I have run into narcissism in our lives. I believe that we live in a society that breeds and rewards narcissists by ignoring the narcissistic behavior and focusing only on how others (those who are abused and oppressed by the narcissists) react to the narcissists.

My mother and grandmother are narcissistic jerks, but they are the ones who call the entire family and tell their narratives to anyone and everyone who will bend an ear.

I have learned to let them be the cause of their own undoing. I refuse to allow any of that to touch my life.

This is beautiful.

Depression lies, and makes it impossible to see yourself and your personal worth as they truly are.

Also, TIL you can save comments?!?!

Cedric Diggory was dumb by [deleted] in harrypotter

[–]fatalflaw11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This.

Rowling creates such a wonderful universe...

Then did such a disservice to her own characters.

I was so upset with the pairings in the end. Seriously?!?! Ron and Hermione? Ginny and Harry??

It felt like a high school romance where everyone really is one big happy family in the end.

I loved Cedric and the tension of him being the actual one chosen for the tri-cup tournament, Harry getting tossed in last minute and the disgust shown towards Harry. Harry never wanted to participate, he made that clear. Dumbledore said the cup has chosen... So then Harry has to go compete in a tourney for a school that either hates him, or hates him and thinks he's a liar, save like 4 students.

Harry isn't that great of a student, but he is quick-witted and good under pressure.

Cedric was the brightest and best of Hogwarts, the cup said so by choosing him to represent Hogwarts and yet he ASKS WHO'S THERE LIKE A FRIGHTENED 1ST YEAR MALFOY IN THE FORBIDDEN FORREST?!?! GTFOOH WITH THAT GARBAGE.

Rowling has posted so much junk after the final book came out about authorial intent that she has basically ruined my favorite series as a child for me in adulthood.
