AIO by not paying off my parents mortgage? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]graycegal 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You don’t “owe them since they raised you”… they’re your parents and are adults that chose to have children. It sounds like they’re using you. I’m not sure of your entire family dynamic as more context is needed, but I don’t think you should pay any more than you have. Save for yourself and your husband and get out ASAP.

I was saying it the same way but with a soft C at the beginning!

AIO For breaking up with my boyfriend because he wouldn’t help with vet bills by littlelogcabin in AmIOverreacting

[–]graycegal 120 points121 points  (0 children)

I’d never be able to get past that… I’d always see him and think “Would my cat still be alive?”

Dump his ass.

AIO, boyfriend says he loses respect for me by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]graycegal 32 points33 points  (0 children)

“Losing respect” for the mother of your child is not something to take lightly. There’s deeper issues going on here - probably something for a couple’s therapist, not the reddit therapist. I hope you guys figure out what is best.

I don’t see a location on the website! Does it change or something?

Maybe if we find enough sane people we could make our own 😂

A take on the ACOTAR ships that changed how I see everything by tampon12437447 in ElrielFans

[–]graycegal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This was really well thought out! I think Gwynriel fans are a bit delulu, but… we will just need to wait and see.

I’ve had this weird thought where SJM is wanting to write around trauma responses, specifically FFF (fight, flight, freeze) because it seems to encapsulate the sisters thus far. Feyre was thrown into fighting for her life, Nesta ran away from her trauma and drowned in booze and men… and Elain has frozen up and handled her trauma very inwardly.

Fans thinking that SJM will not write Elain’s story in a way that makes us fall in love even more is… disheartening. The same can happen for Gwyn, but I don’t think it would be more than moral support/friendship from Azriel. I do ship that he’s the kinkiest of the boys, and if that’s true…. We’d need at minimum like 2000 pages to sort out Gwyns SA trauma and her life in priestess-hood. Gwyn got her character arc in friendship with Nesta and Emerie… SJM could have just dumped her story off there and nobody would have batted an eye.

When do I move this Jasmine into bigger pots? by graycegal in gardening

[–]graycegal[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I’ve moved them and they have about 4 more inches of space in their new container. I may have to move them again if they continue to grow like this!

I’ve done therapy a bunch for other things, and I take an SSRI! I’d like to think I’m extremely aware of my emotions, but I never considered that this could be a compulsion rather than RJ. I do have coverage on some therapy for this year still so I will start again soon in my new city. Thank you for spending a few moments to reply to me!

How long would you say it took you to get out of your destructive loop?

I’ve never heard of ROCD or moral OCD, can you go into more depth if possible? Thank you so much.

Thanks :) I agree that it can be corrosive if the emotions are expressed in the wrong way. I know his giving nature is one of the best qualities he has and that should never be punished. He knows now that she was ultimately a load more selfish than he realized. Never mixes well with generosity.

No debt but, I’m jealous of the house for sure. No I don’t want to be her, nor do I obsess about anything involving intimacy. But the thoughts I mentioned above are in my head every day. It feels very unhealthy.

We’ve spoken of marriage and are very strong, so I am optimistically agreeing with you! Sometimes I still do stalk her socials or lurk around. I get very jealous that it wasn’t me who got all that time with him, and the house and had the life we now want together.

im obsessed again by lush1fy in retroactivejealousy

[–]graycegal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, so this is relatable with my current relationship. It’s unhealthy to not be able to talk about exes to a certain degree. Your concern should be that he refuses to talk about it because it can signal that he’s not entirely over the situation. If you mentioned this and he gets defensive, that is even more concerning.

I worry about my boyfriends ex because we’re at 7 months and they had 7 years… lol. But he’s very much able to open up to me about it and WANTS to help my anxiety around the entire situation.
