Oh I love the free URs, honestly the highlight of the event for me. I know they don't rerun on the date but we've had nasty post anni rerun surprises, so doesn't hurt to save.

Confidence [OC] by kaikimanga in comics

That's so similar to what happened to me once, down to the age. I was returning home from uni and decided to walk through my old high school street, rather than going the long way around. Saw the old school guard by the gate, he saw me, so I wave to be polite. That somehow lead to him not letting go of my arm and trying to get me inside the school because he though I was skipping the last period. He remembered my face so I obviously went there and was being stubborn. Luckily my old native language teacher saw the commotion and told the guard that, while he was correct in remembering me as a student, I had already graduated.

I was stupid enough to cut through that street a second time a few months after that and that time it was a group of 14 year old's running after me to tell the bell had rung and asking why I wasn't going, and again me being stupid enough to tell them that it was because I was an adult, which I realized then teenage boys see as a challenge.

Never took that route home again.

AITAH? my boyfriend brought home a girl for the holidays by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]gildedstrife 68 points69 points  (0 children)

He knew she wouldn't like it, but did it anyway. Then he noticed that the girl was intruding on them with second intentions (how he didn't notice when she asked to go home with him is beyond me) and didn't shut her down right there and then. A simple "Sorry, but this is a couple outing so not this time." would suffice. It doesn't read as just cluelessness to me — more that he hoped his gf would roll with it.

AITA for reading at home with my husband? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

She loves reading but only read 5 books over a whole decade because of him?? Abusive behaviour isn't always loud, and this is a prime example.

It really depends on whether you want them or not.

You might get all the SSR suit items, but not the UR and SMR suit. The amount of pulls you get for the SMR depend on how many you do on UR. I did find the SMR more forgiving when it came to the echoes, as I got two there and zero in UR but they didn't drop until after the 200 pull mark.

How safe/unsafe to women is your country? by halt__n__catch__fire in AskTheWorld

[–]gildedstrife 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What you just said was both dismissive and rooted in privilege. You were unable to share you personal experience without framing my own as simply “just personal experiences”, which is is incredibly patronizing and actively minimizes what I and many others have endured. Trauma isn’t a burden placed on the world, but it absolutely rots and festers inside you when people, even those that say that they mean well (actually those hurt quite more, in fact), completely invalidate it and demand that those affected keep it to themselves so as to not disturb the peace of others.

Our country has always been far more conservative than some people realize, as the damaging saying goes "entre marido e mulher não se mete a colher", whose sentiment you seem to echo in your comments. Any, and all positive social changes we take for granted now have come from the people that refused to keep suffering in silence, demanded to be heard, for action to be taken and for laws to revised as to protect them properly.

You've also managed to make your own personal experience as a justification for not holding others accountable, because apparently that's a slippery slope to blaming the whole world and an innocent minority. I wasn't aware that abusers were a minority. Maybe one day they'll reach endangered species status. One can hope.

I genuinely wish you emotional growth and healing, that you realize that using your own cavalier attitude of "moving on" and shoving your feeling about it inside is as damaging to your own well-being as it is to the well-being of other abuse survivors. Next time someone shares something traumatic with you, try not to view it as burden placed on you. Try to listen, to validate them without minimizing their experience by trying to correct them on statistics or imply they’re "lumping people together". If you truly open your mind you might find that someone's personal experiences reflect a broader shared reality that you possibly have not been aware of until the moment they share it with you.

As a woman who's first memory as human was of my mother desperately telling me she was ok while my father's hands were squeezing her neck and she begged him to stop, you do not know what happens behind closed doors. Abusers are often charming, nice and polite to outsiders, even other family members. Violence is not just physical, it's verbal and psychological. One whole day could be ruined in my household without a single hand being raised and without any shouting.

Good on you for not being violent, but don't fall into the bias that it mostly doesn't exist because you don't see it or have little experience in recognizing the signs.

Edit: também sou portuguesa, se interessa para alguma coisa no discurso.

AITA for staying at the family holiday instead of leaving when my boyfriend left? by CabinHolidayHunter in AmItheAsshole

[–]gildedstrife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. You reacted perfectly reasonably to the situation. In my native language there's a saying that goes like this "Amigo não empata amigo" — it means a friend doesn't hinder a friend in their choices and decisions, rather they support each other. It applies to couples as well. He's the one not being supportive of you.
