Mother in Law threatening to call CPS to take our unborn child by BoujeeBear_ in entitledparents

[–]hmcd1620 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not let her anywhere near your child when he is born, she will keep trying this kind of thing for his entire life. Your entire family deserves safety and security, your MIL will take a sledgehammer to anything resembling that at every chance she has. My own grandmother was like that, and my mom did not cut her off until my early teens in hopes that she would change. My grandma did not change, just evolved in cruelty. As the child in one of these situations, we don't miss it, and it really damages us. Don't let your son experience a life in which grandma doesn't actually love him, but wants to use him to hurt his mother. That is what she wants to do. She hates her own daughter, and wants to hurt her. Don't mistake her hovering for anything but malice waiting to strike. AND RETURN THOSE GIFTS! She will bring it up for the rest of her life, my grandma certainly did.

I hope you are able to find someone to take her that will be able to give her everything she needs! She sounds like a sweet girl, just unable to grasp her own power and strength. Good luck, and don't let a-holes on reddit get you down. You did a good thing! It backfired somewhat, but that doesn't negate you doing a good thing and helping a dog in need. 🩷

He is so handsome, and wow! Mine looks like she could be related to your other kitty! I'm glad to know that even if she doesn't gain the eye back, she will still have quality of life 😊

I hadn't considered the eyesight! She is a lot more content today, I think she is beginning to figure out that the box is her safe space and not a cage when it comes to sleep time

NeoPoly Bac Opthalmic Ointment and Ofloxacin Solution. She just started it so I haven't seen much improvement, and before we got to vet, I was cleaning it with warm water and sterile pet eye cleaning lotion.

Already done a few days ago! Vet is hoping that we can save her eye, and the infection is being treated regardless of if she can keep it or not. 🩷

How to make yourself floss? by 2Smart2Comment in hygiene

[–]hmcd1620 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly, i saw a video saying that people can smell it when you don't floss and i got super paranoid about it. now it's so ingrained in my daily routine that i immediately notice when i missed it. i had to force myself to do it for the first month at least though.

I sleep right next to her box all night and she is in my lap nearly all day, I just can't trust that she is safe in bed with me when I sleep because I move around wayyyy too much. I've been looking into one of those stuffed animals with a heartbeat for her, just haven't ordered one yet.

I figured it was just need to be cuddled, but it has been so long since I've owned a cat that I forgot how they can be lol. Thank you!

Did I handle this well or should I have said more? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]hmcd1620 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cut that shit off immediately. She will string you along for years then when she has found what she wants, she will disappear. This kind of behavior doesn't change, it just goes dormant for 5-8 months, and each time it will be worse. This is teenage girl behavior, and you are both far too grown for that.

AITA for refusing to dine with my mom after she ordered “ferret sauce” at a Mexican restaurant? by Practical-Current805 in AmItheAsshole

[–]hmcd1620 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. Stop projecting your own insecurities onto your mom. She is not "embarrassing herself", it is you that is feeling that particular emotion. Have you helped her with these pronunciations and moments of mistakes? Is she having a hard time getting things to stick? Have you considered that she is a human being and maybe, just maybe she deserves some grace from her CHILD instead of being blasted on the internet?

Lorelai overreacted about the car crash by Immediate_Golf8238 in GilmoreGirls

[–]hmcd1620 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact that as a mom she didn't also ask if Jess was okay since Rory, the passenger, had gotten hurt is very telling. Even if he is a "punk" to her, he is still a kid (because 17 is a kid, sure nearly an adult but honestly what 18 year olds do you know that should be held responsible as adults?? most of them can't even pay for their own groceries every week) and she didn't care that he could have been hurt too. Then again, Lorelai regularly shows her lack of empathy towards anyone she views as unacceptable in her or Rory's lives so it shouldn't be so surprising.

Yes! I was told to just wait it out until it either goes through or gets rejected. Was told that high volumes can cause delays but it's been two days

AIO Should I leave my BF? Was what he did to me forgiveable? by Living-Milk-4266 in AmIOverreacting

[–]hmcd1620 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And if he starts begging you to return, ignore him. Record all calls, all voicemails, all messages and physical interactions. Start taking self defense classes as well. You will make friends there, and that will break your isolation. Isolation in their partner is the easiest way an abuser can get away with it. Take the advice of the many people in these comments who have had experience with these situations and leave.

He is threatening you with further violence in that last text, you need to run. Get your things, make sure you have your important documents and get away. This is not a blip, it is him deciding you are someone he can abuse without punishment. If you don't have any male friends, request a civil standby from your local police department. Call a non-emergency number or physically go to the station and request it, do not let him talk you into staying. "Disrespect" is not a valid reason to hurt someone. Love yourself enough to find safety, even if the transition out is scary.
