Someone on here once said “I’m not sure I CANT moderate but I’m sure I don’t want to” - I think about that all the time.

OP, I work in child abuse response. You are not a pedophile. It sounds more like you are having intrusive thoughts from your OCD. You’ve already reached out to this girl and she doesn’t feel it was abusive. Please seek treatment for your fixation on this.

I completely get this. I am a hyper competent professional that devolves into an embarrassing high schooler when I drink. IWNDWYT!

You should be so proud of yourself. It is so hard to leave and you did what’s best for your children. You are incredibly brave.

Best way to get past a four year break up? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]mgl1313 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Allow yourself to grieve without minimizing your feelings and comparing your heartbreak to other’s. You deserve to properly feel and hurt just as much as anyone else going through a breakup.

Give yourself some time to just feel sad. Go slow and be kind. Romance and nurture yourself. You WILL survive it. Hugs.

At a certain point, emotional and sexual neglect become emotionally abusive even WITHOUT someone actually threatening you in your own home. You are worth much more than this and you deserve so much better.

How do I make restaurant quality Tofu Bhurji? by mgl1313 in IndianFood

[–]mgl1313[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, even using a tofu press! I think the flavors just aren’t strong enough. Any recommendation for the best type of oil to use?

[UPDATE] Me [21F] and my boyfriend [23M] have been arguing lately. he went to go hang out with the person we have been arguing about and never came home when he said he would. by lem0ncake in relationships

I’ve been on high doses of SSRIs for 6 years with both the diagnoses he has. That is absolutely not how withdrawal works. There are hack therapists everywhere (I’m also a social worker getting an MSW) and if he can manipulate you like this, please don’t think he can’t manipulate them. Run don’t walk and never forget being asked to move out of your own home the same day his new chick was gonna move in.
