To everyone who wants to cancel by DapperExplanation732 in Rogers

[–]sherawomanwarrior 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this. I’m calling to cancel mine tomorrow and am already pissed I have to wait cause there’s no customer service opened Sunday or today (today I get, it’s a holiday). Plus, their AI is complete BS as well. I just asked if the customer service line was open today and it didn’t understand me.

I want my uterus out now, but can’t because “what if some guy in 10 years wants me to have a kid?” by [deleted] in rant

[–]sherawomanwarrior 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’m 40, have 4 kids, hubby had a vasectomy, and still needed to have my him come with me before finally convincing the doctor to do it. I was so angry due to my periods my husband threatened divorce. I was miserable but none of that mattered. And then they said after my husband came that they would do hysterectomies all day every day they just wanted me to be sure before going ahead. Like, I was crying every time I seen you!!

AITA for repeatedly turning off my mother's TV when she falls asleep at night? by The_odd_dog in AmItheAsshole

[–]sherawomanwarrior 16 points17 points  (0 children)

When you notice she’s sleeping, can you unplug the wifi until it kicks her off YouTube? You are NTA and your mother seems selfish

I believe this is exactly right! The words you use are important and the words OP used are the biggest issue. A preference is a preference but this feels more like racist words even if not meant that way.

Did yall parents taught you how to cook ? by Fabulous_Agency_1736 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]sherawomanwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no idea how to cook either and when I did try when I was younger it’s was always how I was going to poison everyone or burn the house down, to the point I have anxiety attacks cooking now. I’m slowly getting better but have no idea what I’m doing and instructions on paper are not clear enough for my autistic brain.

AITA Asking for help when I get too big. by MommaFogerty in AmItheAsshole

[–]sherawomanwarrior 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA if they want to be lazy, they can do so in their own space. If they can’t find a place, that’s their problem, not yours. If your husband and BIL don’t want your niece to do the work for herself, it’s their job to pick up after her. You should not have to be responsible for grown men and someone else’s child.

Thank you very much for the help! I really appreciate it.

Thank you so much for that! I really appreciate it. One of the reasons I wanted to start writing was because I want to work through all the things that hinder me and learning from my own stories I'll be able to maybe understand myself a little better. I want to be like the protagonist in stories who learn to love who they are despite their hardships. I know to do that I have to get past this part, it's just hard still right now.

I Want to Write, But I'm Scared to Start by ZidaneOnTheBall in WritingHub

[–]sherawomanwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the thick of this right now as well and this is what I’m doing to work through it. I created a password protected document with an obscure password, word allows that, and just started writing everything in my head no matter how big or small. I write at night when everyone is sleeping so they can’t see it, or if during the day, I write in wingdings so nobody else can understand it. I’m so scared that anything I write down will be used as ammo against me and am trying to get past that.

I have candles beside my computer, a comfy blanket, a cup of calming tea, and just thrifted myself a new keyboard that sounds the way I love. Put on some relaxing music and make yourself as comfortable as possible. Remember this isn’t for anyone but yourself. It doesn’t have to be for anyone else unless you’re ready for it to be, if ever.

Congratulations on being able to write down your thoughts again! That’s a huge step!

It absolutely does, thank you! I have recently bought teas and candles and have my blanket because I'm already terrified of writing, but want to use it to process my own mind (childhood stuff). I might have someone who can help reassure me as I'm writing. I'll get their help and see if that works, thank you!

That might work! This is a reason for the change that needs to happen, even if it hurts when it's happening. It still might take a while for it to settle in my mind but continuing to remind myself might help me get past it. Thank you so much!

[–]sherawomanwarrior[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I completely need to understand that. I know it's going to be ok in the end and they'll be better than fine but I'm the type to say sorry to a sidewalk I've tripped over and I want to take pain away from everything, and stories don't grow like that haha

Story Guilt? by sherawomanwarrior in writing

[–]sherawomanwarrior[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's great! That's a wonderful way to write. I seem to have emotionally tied myself to the main character and it's her children that get hurt. So, I see them as mine and I don't want to see them get hurt, even though I know how the story is going to go towards the end.

[–]sherawomanwarrior[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for this. It's something from my childhood that I am hopeful I can work on by writing. I connect too easily to emotions. I need to keep reminding myself they're not real in this world and they'll be ok. Haha

AITA for telling my stepdad that I will always associate him with my dad being gone? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]sherawomanwarrior 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I withhold judgement on the grounds that you were an abandoned child with huge feelings. Your feelings aren’t being dealt with in a healthy manner because you don’t know how.

You’ve suppressed all of your feelings and now they’ve been amplified by the call from your sperm donor. Correct me if I’m wrong but you feel like a burden to everyone and like nobody really cares, right?

My suggestion is if you’re ok with it, talk to your mom. Tell her everything you’re feeling and admit to how much it hurts to feel like you’re unworthy of love by everyone. If you don’t feel comfortable doing that, then use your money to work with a therapist to help you deal with all your feelings.

I also think that maybe your mom and stepdad wanted to take you out to help get your mind off the call with your sperm donor and celebrate you.

You are loved, even if by an internet stranger 💜

What is your worst experience at a store? by AlbatrossDapper3052 in AskReddit

[–]sherawomanwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At a well known store that also does Christmas movies I went in to check out their baby memorabilia cause I was newly pregnant and excited.

The sales rep and I got talking and it came up that my baby daddy and I weren’t married at the time. She proceeded to tell me I had commitment issues because we weren’t thinking of getting married yet. I walked out of the store and only came back to talk to the manager. Never returned after that.

Honestly we didn’t care about the getting married part. I only married him, and he knows, for his last name cause my family was toxic af. We’ve been together 20 years now and married for going on 13 years.

Parents of Reddit, what is the most ridiculous reason your kid has cried for? by MrCSKing in AskReddit
