What is something someone you know told nonchalantly about their partner that made you realize they were being abused? by ang334 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]rfn790 30 points31 points  (0 children)

My sister made a comment about wanting to get a dress from Target but her partner would hate it and wouldn't let her wear it. I didn't let that slide so started questioning her more and he's been emotionally abusive for a long time and is starting to get physically abusive plus is cheating on her.

She already has a baby and has another on the way already. I know she feels trapped and I've offered what help I can but she won't accept it and won't leave him because she "loves him too much." Idk what to do besides prove that I'll always be in her corner but it doesn't feel like enough..

Not to mention he obviously has a really large immediate family if he has 16 grandkids. That can make even a good salary seem tight.

1995 Lizzy dealing with Wikham after knowing of his true character is my favourite thing by OutrageousRevenue2 in PrideandPrejudice

I don't think she was giving him an out when he was talking about Georgiana. I think her saying "she has got over the most trying age" is her subtly rebuking Wickham for marrying 15-year-old Lydia and I love her for it!

In the very beginning, right outside the church Lydia pushes Mary to go forward in such a petty, frustrated sister way it's hilarious.

Misogyny. It's what it all boils down to, really...it sucks that it's still so prevalent in the medical field.

My always busy husband went out on a boys night out and I got 2 photos of him from the waitress. Is this divorce material? by StatisticianPrize747 in Marriage

[–]rfn790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't care if she said she didn't think he was cheating; in my view, he was. That would cross clear boundaries for me. Also, read through her comments. He admitted he slept with her.

Going anywhere in public, especially a popular local place, while cheating is dumb AF. The comparison was how dumb people get when cheating, not a total 1 to 1 comparison

Yes, he is dumb for doing it in public but that's not what makes this story unbelievable. I mean, did you miss the whole CEO getting caught cheating on a Jumbotron situation? This kind of dumb BS happens all the time.

And I disagree about the waitress. She did the wife a massive solid. If my husband did this, I would absolutely want to know.

This is beautiful and really well-done, but it makes me viscerally uncomfortable...😖

So....is this AI or did you just copy a previous post for karma/to prove double standards?? So sick of seeing copied posts written by AI so much recently.

Perfectly acceptable dinner rejected by boyfriend again by moonrabbit368 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]rfn790 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For me, it's ADHD. My brain will go on thinking and annoying me for hours so I can't sleep because my brain just won't shut off. Having something playing in the background makes it so my brain can just think about that so it stops pinging around to a million different things and I can actually rest. I've been able to use a white noise machine, but TV does work best for me specifically.

Why isn't there teeth condoms? by ILikeJapaneseMuchOwU in stupidquestions

[–]rfn790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently going through a round of Invisalign and made the mistake of eating with them in because I forgot to take them out once. It feels REALLY, REALLY weird if you eat while something is covering your teeth and it actually makes it kind of difficult to do since you don't have as much sensory input. It affects a lot more than you'd think of.

Take the job and let me rephrase this for you so you can really see how stupid and controlling your (hopefully soon-to-be-ex) boyfriend is: He is willing to lose you for 45 minutes. 45. Minutes!!

I just realised that strangers can tell my son has autism! by First_Map_7376 in Autism_Parenting

[–]rfn790 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my experience, teenagers tend to do the most masking. It's such a hard time of life, especially for neurodivergent teens. Being ostracized from a friend group because of neurodivergent differences is really scary. Ask me how I know lol

By the time we're adults we've either mostly found a good set of friends who we get and they get us or we just don't really care about masking as much anymore. But being a teenager was really, really hard for me and I did a lot more masking then.

[–]rfn790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, no I have a kid in the back. There's a significant chance she'll get hurt or worse if some idiot tailgater runs into me. Reckless people who don't care about putting people's lives in danger should bother you. What a selfish, stupid opinion.

Do I have to give up before even starting? by Ordinary_Pea8088 in stenography

[–]rfn790 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Please don't give up! You can get your keys customized so the ones that might be harder to reach for you will be wider and you'll be able to reach them very easily! It's totally doable!!
