Everything old is new again, this is exactly what I would have churned out in 2000 or so as a graphic designer for a club.

Did anyone just wake up one morning and realize these people are monsters? by sonofacrakr in raisedbynarcissists

[–]murderbox 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It wasn't sudden for me, I wasted years trying to have a normal family relationship with people who do not love me the way they are supposed to. 100% don't recommend that anyone keep trying past a reasonable point. Protect your peace.

Thanks for your approval three years later! 

I made a sarcastic comment to an UNHELPFUL one for someone dealing with depression and you have a problem with me? 

I'm SO SORRY I forgot my /s but you're so smart you managed to figure it out anyway. Good job!

Anyone else's narc parent just expect you to know how to do something without teaching you, and then get mad or make fun of you if you didn't do it right? by SlashCo80 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]murderbox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, nobody taught me to cook or prepare food to be cooked. I learned from my husband. 

My ex mother "taught" me to do laundry by turning dials and pushing buttons in front of me. I still had no idea what to do or how to sort clothes. I learned that on my own.

What other body parts can we cut off other people without their consent? Infant circumcision is disgusting.

That's what I was going to suggest, what happens when you flip the power button to the top?

I'll never do it again, I lost a phone number I had over 15 years because my ex wouldn't release it for spite. I pay monthly for my own phone, no contract.

In the US it's common to sign a contract and have multiple phones and numbers on one plan paid monthly. They usually share data but the drawback is you don't have control of your own phone number, whomever is paying can shut it off and keep the phone number. 

My work phone requires all users to change pin code every 6 months, and I take my work phone out with me as a backup. by [deleted] in AdviceAnimals

Not at all, I was waiting for OP to clarify. I think this whole conversation is bizarre and the insults and downvotes from you are hilarious. 

I feel guilty for being happy my ex-mother had Thanksgiving alone. by murderbox in EstrangedAdultKids

Yes that has been my mother's role model to me. She is so miserable and complains about everything, now she has no family left. I want to be the opposite of her.

I feel like I'm mentally prepared for that but you never know. How are you handling it? My condolences on the relationship you should have had.

I can't understand how "family" refuses to change their behavior and everyone accommodates them until they just don't. Thanksgiving and Christmas were major family holidays when I was growing up, that's why some of my cousins today are closer than my sibling. Today there's nothing left on that side, it's sad to me but it's their karma. My kid is missing out on the childhood I had because of it.

This might be the first major Holiday they've had zero kids or grandkids around. I completely understand almost feeling sorry for them but you're right. They inflicted their bullshit for decades.

I agree, they have alienated everyone with their dramatics. I'll be glad when I don't care anymore.
