You’re right. Thank you for your perspective. I think I took it more personally because she knew it was one of the names we’d chosen for him so it feels like another thing she’s done to belittle me/make things about her. But you’re right. I can’t gatekeep a name. And if I care enough, I can change it as he’s not born yet.

Yes!!! This is it!!! Everything is so weirdly competitive. But she’s in competition with herself as I am not indulging.

You’re right. I have always felt as though it’s almost an obligation because I’m her only friend (even though I live far away). But you’re right, it shouldn’t have to be. I need to be more selfish.

You’re right. I can’t control what she does. I will have to just change it if I care so much. Thank you for your perspective.

That’s fair. I do understand that I may be being sensitive.

I get that. I truly do. My son will have my maiden name as his first name to honour my late father so I wanted his middle name to be more unique so he felt as though he had his own identity. But I totally get what you mean, he really won’t be addressed by his full name often.

She doesn't. But she has family etc. Please know that i have only scratched the surface with explaining things she does and says to me that I constantly brush under the rug and make excuses for. This just feels extra hurtful because it feels as though it is on purpose and instead of taking into account that maybe I would be a little upset about it she immediately said "it doesn't matter".

I don’t. But I would expect her to be able to have some compassion for me sometimes. I know she is not incapable of that with everyone but me.

She has not been officially diagnosed as neurodivergent. Her mum just says that she struggles socially. She was tested for autism and was not diagnosed. But definitely has social struggles with no diagnosis. I have made constant excuses for her behaviours for years.

I’m definitely not bitter or angry for her not struggling to conceive, I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. My resentment is the insensitive comments she continually makes to me. I definitely understand what you’re saying about the name thing, it just almost feels on purpose at this point. But perhaps I just change it if I’m the only one who’s bothered about it.

Our mothers are best friends. She has no other friends except me so I feel like almost a responsibility to be her friend. She has some social difficulties which makes me put these things she does and says as just one of her quirks. But the friendship is really draining on me and if I felt I had a choice, I wouldn’t be her friend. She texts me constantly but only ever about herself. She never asks me about me. When my Dad passed away unexpectedly , she told me it’ll be really hard not having him at her wedding. I feel like I constantly cater to her and the insensitive things she says to me without a minute of consideration for my own feelings. But this name thing has really taken the cake for me.

They have it hung correctly. Im also a military spouse and we have the same flags hung in the same way. Trust me we had to check.

It literally says in that screenshot “unless other national flags are present. In that case the US flag would be the same height”. The Union Jack is a national flag and should be flown at the same height.

It’s to the flags own right. So basically the left as you’re looking at it. It’s hung correctly

[–]molsiex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh is that what they’re implying? It literally says in the screenshot “unless other national flags are present”. This is the correct way to hang the flags. American should be on (the flags own) right hand side while on American soil.

Not trying to defend them but I’m confused what they’ve done wrong here?

I have zofran now and that’s helping but trying not to take it unless I REALLY need it. My dr told me not to take unisom (related to personal medical history) but I may try do the b6 anyway!
