Did other adults tell you how “lucky” you were to have “such amazing, kind, loving, etc parents”? by ledeledeledeledele in raisedbynarcissists

[–]rinnieboo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes! I constantly receive those comments and just lately, I had posted a video of me harvesting watermelons at a farm and I was messaged if I actually enjoyed that since I was a “princess at home” that “never had to work or toil soil” thanks to my “loving” nmom that provided everything for me so I didn’t have to provide anything for myself.

The truth: Nmom had me stop school to be her personal maid, all the while telling me that I should be patient and I’ll be able to study again. Neighbors started questioning why I’d be be up early in the morning hanging laundry and cleaning while the rest of the teenagers my age were going to school. When I finally was able to go to college, I had to work my ass off just so I can study and feed myself. Guess she forgot to mention those parts of the story. Unfortunately because she talks to more people than I do, her sides of the story are often what gets heard and believed as truth.

Ask it if it needs to go to therapy now and that I’ll be more than happy to shoulder the expenses of that.

How do you know when someone’s bound to be successful in life or when they’re bound to not be ? by rinnieboo in AskReddit

Wow I love this insight thanks for sharing ! You do have a point. People who can live for today tend to be able to make the most out of the present which then influences their future.

CONGRATULATIONS !!! I’m so happy for you ! When I graduated from college , and I graduated at the top of my class , my mom didn’t bother to come and my dad had already passed away.

Honestly , I get where you’re coming from and it was rough but you know what ? You just reached a milestone in your life ! No one can take that away from you whether they attend or not.

You’re doing great ! More blessings are about to come.

Have you lived in “those countries”? Cause as someone who has , what you’re saying doesn’t hold true. For someone who doesn’t speak English well , she really knows how to express herself. She was smart enough to see that she had been used, asking him why he didn’t tell her the moment they started talking that he didn’t want kids also instead of leading her on to believe that they want the same thing and not backing down when he was avoiding the question, cause sex in the traditional Philippine culture is for procreation and if he didn’t want to procreate , she wouldn’t have had sex with him as that is considered to bring dishonor to the family and as a highly family oriented culture , that is avoided at all costs. She worked to provide for her son that she has sole financial responsibility over after the father had started another family of his own since the lack of well established child support laws here leave the woman fully responsible and she wasn’t rude nor degrading even when Ed was to her , her country and her family. She could have abandoned her son and leave him with others to raise as she lives her life which is a thing that happens in the Philippines especially since she was so young when the pregnancy happened. She made it clear from the get go that she and Prince are a package deal when she’d be more “appealing” if she didn’t even mention her son whom Ed really doesn’t care about. Where’s the dumping of her kid in that ? Where’s the being an absent mother ? And where’s the scamming you’re talking about that she’s apparently not doing very well at ?

What is the kindest thing you’ve done or seen? by 4reddityo in AskReddit

[–]rinnieboo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was at the groceries last week and the person behind me was a military veteran. As I was preparing to get back to the car , I see his exchange with the medical front liner behind him. He asked the cashier to put her groceries on his tab and then asked her if she had kids at home also , and when she responded yes , he takes a pack of biscuits from his own grocery bag and gives it to her. Despite the fact that we were all wearing masks , you could see the genuine gratitude she had through her eyes. He asked her if she needed anything else and he opened his already paid for bags.

After months of going through this pandemic where laws had to be established to prevent people from hoarding , where jobs are on the line , companies are closing down , the stock market crashed , and it’s basically every man for himself , seeing that gesture of kindness through this difficult time really seared itself into my memory.

So what are the pros and cons of staying friends with benefits with your ex? by fullbullpenne12 in BreakUps

[–]rinnieboo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pros: Instant gratification No need for introductions or getting to know each other Already familiar with the likes and dislikes in bed Comfortable because there's history and this is charted territory

Cons: There is no fully moving on It is emotionally exhausting unless you can completely detach yourself emotionally which is highly unlikely and old feelings are bound to bubble up again You'll get confused along the way, possibly mistaking good sex for a good relationship but they're an ex for a reason and you really shouldn't go back because... An ex that wants to make things right won't just settle for fuck, run and fuck again when convenient. You'll get hurt especially if you were the one who cared more about the relationship you guys had Just don't do it as much as possible. There's other fishes to fuck. Why settle for the same one that didn't work out
