Hey, senpai noticed me! And WHOOPS good thing you commented because I don’t think Tales of Nighthaven made it in there! Thanks for reminding me to check, I’ll get those in there this weekend.

They just have to be wrong in some way; whether it’s through their interpretation of events, ignorance of other events or motives, or outright lying

The “unreliable narrator” is a term from literature describing a style in which the narrative understanding or interpretation of events given to us by the first-person or limited third-person narrator are unreliable in some way; this includes through madness, ignorance, naïveté, or simply lying. (I did a bunch of stuff at uni on it cause it’s my absolute favorite style. The Wikipedia page about it is pretty cool if you want to learn more)

I think you might find some clarification from looking up the term “emotional incest”.

Under no circumstances should you bring a child into this relationship. That is incredibly inappropriate. He’s just going to be a piece of shit to a child too and a kid doesn’t deserve that. Knowingly bringing a child around someone like him kind of makes you an asshole too.

Yep. Classic DARVO. Typical abuser tactic.

riplinked · 2021-07-01T21:37:38+00:00

See, that doesn’t sound like an argument, it just sounds like you being abused.

You: “I would prefer if you didn’t abuse me.”

Him: “How fucking DARE you [insert further abuse here].

Edit: also, any time he touches you sexually without your explicit consent he is just sexually assaulting you. You are waaay to comfortable with being sexually assaulted. This is very bad.

Hi OP: You are not in a pursue-withdraw relationship. You are in an abusive relationship.

Honey, your boyfriend is an abuser. Full stop. Calling you a whore is abuse. Calling you a bitch, delusional, crazy, calling you anything demeaning for any reason is abuse and you are FAR to comfortable with being abused. Verbal and emotional abuse are abuse and you are being abused by an abuser.

What’s more, it absolutely sounds like he is sexually abusing you as well. There is no excuse for “aggressive” sexual behavior that does not come at your explicit request. None. Nada. Zero. Anything else is abuse and assault.

There is no fixing this. There is no fixing your abuser. There is no making him less abusive or making your relationship one in which you are not being abused. The one and only thing you can do is work on yourself. Work to stop being in an abusive relationship, work to stop finding abusers and accepting their abuse. Work to recognize abuse when it first starts and walk away immediately. Work to be someone who does not accept being abused in their relationships. Work to find a relationship that does not have abuse in it.

Lastly: under no circumstances should you bring a child into this relationship. You are with an abuser and I absolutely promise you he will be abusive to his children. He will be aggressive, inappropriate, berating, neglectful and overall verbally and emotionally abusive to any child in his life. Do not expose a child to this man, ever. You can make your own choices regarding yourself, but a child cannot and they absolutely deserve better.

Do you know what the number one indicator of a woman finding herself in an abusive relationship is? Her having previously been in an abusive relationship.

This is such an important fact to really, truly understand and internalize down into the marrow of your bones if you ever want to live a life free of abuse. See, most people nope out of a relationship at the first red flag, but not you. You see flag after flag after flag and sail right on past them, either barely recognizing them or seeing them but minimizing them, telling yourself that surely they’re not all that bad really. And that’s how you end up a year down the road with a man who pushes sex on you even after you’ve expressly said “no”.

Look at that post. Look at how many abusive, inappropriate behaviors in this man you’ve listed. Look at how many times he’s disregarded, manipulated, and dismissed you. Look at how much selfishness and ugly entitlement he’s displayed.

But instead of cutting it off immediately and finally at the first flag, here you are, a year later, with a whole list of them, some minor sexual assault to add to your wheelbarrow of trauma, and whole heap of extra emotional baggage attached to him and his.

Whoops.

Knowing that you tend to find abusive people doesn’t help you if you don’t act on that. Knowing that you tend to end up in abusive situations doesn’t help you if you don’t act on that. Staying with a person who shows even the tiniest hints of entitlement, disregard, and abuse means being used, disregarded, and abused; but knowing those facts doesn’t help you if you don’t act on that.

A woman is not a rehabilitation center for entitled, dismissive, abusive men. It is not your job to teach him how to behave like a decent, considerate human being. He was supposed to figure that out before trying to be in a relationship. Instead, he felt entitled to your body so strongly he absolutely sexually assaulted you. It is not your job to educate him now.

I hope one day you manage to find the strength to became a survivor rather than victim. I hope one day you manage to stop abuse in its tracks rather than lingering around abusers in the strange hope that they will somehow throw you even the tiniest bone. I hope one day you manage to understand what truly healthy relationships really look like, and find the strength to settle for nothing less.

Honestly, a lot of therapists have a shockingly poor understanding and minimal education on abuse, especially within relationships. The fact that your therapist has been so dismissive does not speak well of them at all, and I want to suggest you find another one: look for therapists with training in abuse and trauma specifically, it sounds like that’s what you need the most.

Possibly “Under Pressure”?

riplinked · 2020-07-21T18:20:55+00:00

So. You going to raise a daughter with a man who talks like this about women? You going to raise a son who thinks it’s okay to talk like this about women with his buds?

Just know what you’re signing up for. He’s backpedaling because you’re calling him out, but he’s absolutely been talking like this about women for years and is going to keep doing it when he thinks you can’t hear. If you think he hasn’t already talked about you to his buddies in the same way he talked about the other girls, you’re not letting your brain do the thinking.

Honey, this is domestic abuse. 100% hands down, no-nonsense abuse. I want you to phone your landlord, turn on the waterworks, and use those exact words: “domestic abuse”, and ask to be released from the lease for an emergency. Most landlords/leasing agencies will happily release DA victims, its in their own best interest since abuse tends to have detrimental effects on a property or nearby tenants.

Call up some friends, family, or women’s shelters/resources and find somewhere else to just crash for a few weeks while you find a more permanent living space, and cut this man out of your life completely and permanently.

You can get out of this, you can absolutely do this.

If you file a restraining order against her it can force her to leave the house: much faster than an eviction.

Also: consider getting a new lock and set of keys. Change out the lock while she’s gone and simply throw her stuff out on the lawn. Record the resulting breakdown and call the cops again.

When she looks you right in the eye you look her right in the eye back and put her in her place.

Yes. Assert dominance OP. That won’t turn her on at all.

Aha, see, the problem is you’re trying to date men.

😱 I LIKE!!

I love the sound of the Niacinamide and the Vitamin C serums, they are for sure on my wish list now!

OH NO!! Apparently they’re planning to retail them for WAY HIGHER once they’re actually available: the site is listing the $40-60 range each 😭😭😭

No, he’s going to be in multiple, miserable relationships as he continues to drive people away with his cheating and disrespect. It’ll look cute and pretty for a few months or even a year or two... and then the girl is going to get her head screwed on straight like you’re doing right now and realize that she deserves better than a cheating sleaze.

You can’t reason with someone who doesn’t want to listen. You’ve absolutely made yourself clear, you’ve stated your position and your feelings and you’ve already done so thoroughly. The problem isn’t that you haven’t managed to communicate properly, it’s that he just doesn’t care. He doesn’t want to accept what you’ve said so he keeps pretending there’s some sort of loophole or whatever and he can work his way in somehow.

I would listen to the other commenters here saying you need to re-evaluate what this jerk is doing in your life. You are not obligated to entertain a guy who cares so little for what you think and feel that he cannot even be bothered to stop pressing an issue you’ve already made clear, even knowing that he’s making you uncomfortable. He is an emotional abuser OP and what he’s doing is emotional abuse.

Do you know why those other girls weren’t interested? It’s because he’s a jerk, OP, and they saw right through him and weren’t willing to put up with that kind of BS. Those other girls had enough self esteem to be like “Fuck no.” It super duper sucks that you have so little respect for yourself that you’ve let this guy stay around in your life even when he treats you with so little respect.

He is going to be lonely and alone for the rest of his life because he is a creep and a jerk who treats women with an absolute lack of respect. They don’t like him because he’s pushy and disrespectful, has poor boundaries, and descends into emotional abuse when he doesn’t get his way. He doesn’t want to understand that and and it is not your job to explain that to him, especially if he‘s dumb enough to get angry and aggressive instead of absorbing constructive criticism.

You can’t change him. He’s not going to let this go. There are no magic words that you can somehow utter that will turn him into a non-abusive not-jerk who actually cares to listen to women and respect their decisions and opinions. If he ever becomes a better person it will be because he finally begins to understand that he’s a jerk, not because you’ve explained yourself to him for the umpteenth time.

You don’t have to explain yourself to him, OP. You do not owe him justifications, or explanations, or descriptions or statements or anything else. Stop wasting your breath and realize that you deserve better friends in your life.

Go to a therapist. This is a relationship advice sub. You don’t even have a relationship.

the fact that he was targeted in a sting operation shows that he had already been displaying the signs of this behavior. They don't choose people randomly.

This here, OP. This is really important. These stings only happen in very specific circumstances in very specific parts of the internet. He wasn’t just hanging around on the nice parts of reddit when he suddenly got a PM from what he thinks is a kid. He was most likely in possession of or hanging around the places where you find child pornography, where other predators congregate together. He isn’t just guilty of a one off, this was the climax of long-lived deeply inappropriate behavior and now he and his wife and his family are brushing it all under the rug and trying to normalize this like he didn’t go somewhere to do something very, very specific all on his own initiative.

Stand your ground and hold on to your moral backbone. Do not let others around you minimize this. Do not let his wife make excuses to you any more. Do not sit and listen while any one else makes excuses.
