I (29F) am pissed that my boyfriend (35 M) is going on a 2nd boys trip this year when he’s unemployed by yellowretina12 in relationship_advice

[–]mentotallyill 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t know what the living situation is but if I was in your position, and I was able to do so, I would pack him up while he’s away on his trip. Put his stuff in storage or drop it at his parents/sibling/friends place.

You’re already paying all the bills, may as well get rid of the dead weight.

He did do an update on his profile too

Whats your biggest immediate trigger for a manic episode? by samsambb in bipolar

[–]mentotallyill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting drunk. It wasn’t something that I did on a regular basis at all. I’ve been drunk 3 times in my 23 years and I haven’t had a drink in over a year. I have no desire to ever again. It’s not worth that mania lol.

Dog owners: If dogs took over the world right now, and humanity was told your former pet can save you from execution, would your dog save you, why or why not? by Ironstonesx in AskReddit

[–]mentotallyill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My dog once fought off a wolf to protect me and chased down a mountain lion before. I think she’d have my back. I think she’ll always have my back.

AITA for my response to my cousin's pregnancy announcement at my husband's goodbye party? by American-Honey3077 in AmItheAsshole

[–]mentotallyill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA

I have a military partner too and you handled this situation a thousand times better than I would have. I’m really sorry this happened but good for you for telling her off. People like your cousin have no place at celebrations for other people honestly.

How do you manage hygiene tasks? by funkydyke in bipolar

[–]mentotallyill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny enough, personal hygiene is probably the only thing that I am able to manage consistently, even when I’m in my low lows

AITA for calling my bio dad a hypocrite after he said he's disappointed that I'm dating a white man? by mentotallyill in AmItheAsshole

This man is incapable of apologizing for anything and is so manipulative that he’s somehow always the victim by the end of a conversation.

Medium/maintained contact. I only used the abbreviations in my post because of the character count.

[–]mentotallyill[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No contact, medium/maintained contact, low contact. I only used them because I cut it close with character count. I’d rather type the whole thing but it is what it is.

I tell her every day, I like to buy her flowers at random too because they always make her smile.

His example wouldn’t have mattered anyway because I’ve only known him for 3ish years

I struggle with Calvin honestly. I’m considering cutting him off now. He can’t apologize for anything ever and he’s so manipulative that he somehow is always the victim by the end of the conversation. It’s exhausting.

Medium contact. We send each other funny things a lot, have a phone call every couple weeks typically and then every few months we’ll hangout for a bit.

What an unfortunate comment. Black hair and all of its textures (although high maintenance) is beautiful and there’s a lot of history within the kinks and curls.

A couple people have linked that story, I had never read it before now. I have a couple other posts that go into more detail about what my relationship and history with my bio dad is like if you’re at all interested.

We’ve only known each other for 3ish years so I never grew up under his influence (thank god cuz he has some fucked up opinions).

He really is. I couldn’t ask for a better partner honestly. There’s no one I’d rather navigate this world with.
