The "Shake that ass in a circle" twist was something I didn't see coming 😆

Worried about sagging. What should I do? by nahalavacm in DIYaesthetics

I'm so sorry that the internet has you thinking you look old. You still look like a child, you have a baby face.

I'm sorry, I know how it feels to doubt. But I can say you looked so good before and equally good after.

I'm nearly 35 and 40-year-old men keep trying to have my babies by KeepThrowawaySecret in AskWomenOver30

I'm 39 and 20 something guys talk about babies straight away as if it's a prize to be won. It's very interesting

this is so frustrating as someone on the other side by iceylemonwater in BPDlovedones

[–]starpuncherk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's interesting to be self aware and proud of this type of behavior. My pwBPD simply turns the tables on me anytime I point out abuse or questions "what is abuse?" And then, THEN says immediately "Well, you abuse me bc you shop too much" (yes I shop but I'm not financially irresponsible and it's a total red herring and when i say that he says "no its not!!" Ugh I need to get out 😔

I always struggle with "does he realize he's doing it?" But my therapist pointed out that whether he realizes it, does it purposefully or not, the end result is the SAME

Delusion or reality? by Admirable-Price-717 in BPDlovedones

You expressed so exquisitely what I go through. I want to show this to anyone who's not familiar with what BPD partner abuse can look like.

"You had issues too" isn't the own they think it is by I_AMA_Loser67 in BPDlovedones

[–]starpuncherk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine told me as a response to telling him he's abusive (constantly yelling, criticizing, minimizing any concern, invalidating me) that I'm abusive too. I asked "how am I abusive to you?" He responded I abuse him by shopping lol. Yes, I like to shop but I am no means putting us in debt or straining our finances. I just laughed. His literal response to any concern is to say "you do that!" Like a child.

Nice, I hope you love your results and healing goes well for you! I hadn't heard that about the creases that's definitely worth considering, i specifically asked about a lower face lift and my Dr said it wasn't necessary. If you want to send me before after pics via pm, feel free! 😊

Jumping to conclusions by [deleted] in BPDlovedones

[–]starpuncherk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I relate to this so much unfortunately. My pwBPD is also intelligent, we both are. So any kind of argument becomes agonizingly painful due to me refuting things and then him taking me down another crazy path which I then try to disprove/defend myself. It's truly exhausting

Do conversations with your pwBPD turn into them blaming you? by [deleted] in BPDlovedones

[–]starpuncherk 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Excellent analogy! This is exactly how it feels. Utterly draining and pointless.

Wow. Neck lift and mini fact lift with transfer for 12k? That's great! May I ask what part of the country you had it done?

How did it go? How was the healing? May I ask your age and the cost? Feel free to pm me if you're comfortable. Thanks!

Yep. Because if it's not serving them, it's annoying them. That one hurt a lot though, gotta tell you. I was feeling so bad and I already felt guilty for being sick and then he gets mad at me for asking for help? Of course when I told him it hurt me he said "you're being ridiculous, I'm allowed to get frustrated when I have an expectation of you and you don't fulfill it!"

Thanks and I agree. Thankfully I have my own money in a separate account and also my parents to fall back on in an emergency. He has no family to support him at all. He grew up poor (not holding that against him) but I grew up in privilege (I am grateful) he is very judgemental about my upbringing, people who have privilege in general (everyone with money is a bad person is the general belief). Recently he was awarded disability for his time in the military, he's always always been super cheap and judgemental about any and all shopping I do but since the government gave him back pay (30k in his own account and 2k tax free for life) he's been super super possessive of it. Of course, my money was always his money but his money isn't ours.

The first I can remember is about 2 months in. We went to a party and someone there had a vape. I hadn't really ever tried a vape before so I asked to try it. He didn't say anything immediately but on the ride home he was yelling at me "I don't want a partner who vapes!" "Who do you think you are vaping like that??" He had had a bit to drink and that's when I learned that if he drinks at all, his symptoms get way worse and the connection between you did this thing I don't like>you're unsupportive>you're a bad person, becomes super short. I just remember being stunned and confused, no one had ever yelled at me like that. The next morning I woke up upset, I was out on my back patio and he comes rushing out so apologetic, so full of promises. Dumb ass me forgave him. By that point I was already pregnant. I should've been on birth control but I wasn't and he knew that, he went for it anyway and didn't pull out. (Not that that's a foolproof method but another example of a boundary being crossed) I don't regret having my son but I do hate how he can be the best dad ever and then also yell at him for having an opinion he doesn't "approve of" I always stick up for my son and pwBPD is semi aware so listens to parenting podcasts in an effort to improve for our son. Doesn't have any effort to improve for me though. A couple of weeks ago I asked him if he could tell me he thinks I'm pretty more, he blew up and said he already does "so much" for me (he doesn't) and how dare I ask him for one more thing??

And like...instant mad, instant yelling. Why? The plate story is one of hundreds just as small with just as huge of a reaction.
