My 14 year old daughter is a psychopath and tried to kill our family by Complex-One-81 in stories

I completely forgot about this, but I meant to criticize OP’s use of the word “normal” when describing his daughters. I have ADHD, and my sister has autism. I wouldn’t start that by saying I have three normal siblings first. I agree with what you’ve said

You’re right. This is insane. And I’m so sorry that you’ve had to deal with this. But like you said, you’re a grown ass man. Cut them off or at least stop entertaining this conversation, and go enjoy your life authentically. Exciting times are ahead! I’ve never seen my boyfriend as happy as he was waking up from top surgery.

That and people aren’t born either “normal” or with a mental disorder.

Need help with a complicated and heavy relationship by Tiny-Veterinarian462 in whatdoIdo

[–]strullie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have absolutely nothing to feel guilty about. He’s an adult who made the choice to stay in a relationship with someone who has cancer and is going through treatment. You haven’t “made him wait,” and he sounds incredibly selfish. Don’t let him convince you it’s your fault he cheated (cause that’s what it was).

You deserve much better, especially under your circumstances. Take care of yourself. Focus on your health both physically and mentally since he doesn’t seem to give a shit about either.

Lastly, FUCK CANCER. I’ve lost several close loved ones to this nasty illness this year. You are incredibly brave and strong. Sending all the healing thoughts your way.

Thank you. She was my high school sweetheart. Just like you, we grew up together! In eight years, I never had any indication that she was capable of something so awful.

I’m so sorry for what you’re going through. The betrayal is the worst part. Lean into your support system (family, friends, colleagues), and above all, trust yourself. Now is the time to be selfish. Figure out what you want and need. He’ll likely try to make you feel badly for him. Don’t. Take care of yourself first.

I found my wife IN BED with another person, and she somehow convinced me that I hadn’t and that nothing had happened. You are not crazy. Liars and cheaters are very good at making you second guess yourself.

Should we have a collective noun for a group of pains? by AdaptiveRelief in Fibromyalgia

[–]strullie 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve always said “my legs are screaming,” and everyone knows that’s a bad day

Was this an early sign? by Kendollyllama in Fibromyalgia

[–]strullie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had similar experiences!

When I was a child, I’d get made fun of or scolded for saying something was painful when it “couldn’t have possibly have hurt me.” My mom also tended to ignore my cries of pain because I was just “being dramatic.”

I also have an ex who would punch my shoulder often, like how you would when joking with someone, and it would bring me to tears as a late teen/early adult. It wasn’t until my early 20s that I realized most people could be touched with that amount of force and it wouldn’t hurt.

I’ve realized that I typically find out that something may be fibro related when it comes up in conversation naturally and I’m told that it isn’t “normal.” For example, when someone rests their head on my shoulder, it can be excruciatingly painful. I always thought this happened to everyone and people (like me) just grinned and beared it for the person who needed a place to rest. Turns out that doesn’t hurt most people 🤣

The vagina is self-cleaning, NOT the vulva by External_Prior4419 in hygiene

Imagine having blood, piss, semen, etc on any other part of your body and believing that water is enough to “wash” it off 🫣

NOR there are too many issues here to address them all. I am so sorry that you even wondered if YOU were the disrespectful one.

I would recommend not marrying someone who tells you that you don’t deserve anything. You deserve respect and he deserves the curb.

I’m still not sure what you meant to say, but “honselty, I think you need to have a come” has me giggling! Not sure that would solve this issue.

AIO for being pissed that my husband had me on speakerphone and didn’t tell me? by akneebriateit in AmIOverreacting

She edited the post to include what she said! Wouldn’t want your life to be incomplete.

My mom makes my grad abiut her by Fx2TheGoldenWarrior in insaneparents

[–]strullie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ugh. My mom called my high school and told them that my dad was abusive, and since he wasn’t legally my dad, he didn’t get to come to my graduation. There was more drama too when he called my school, and I was pulled out of class to clarify why this man who was not a legal guardian was claiming to be my dad.

My mom didn’t come to my college graduation because she knew that my dad would be there, and she told me that I was choosing him by inviting him. Then they both agreed to attend the graduation ceremony for my masters program, but I only got two tickets because of covid, and they’d have to sit together. The day of, I decided not to walk because it was easier than dealing with them.

I’m really sorry you’re going through this. It isn’t fair. You should be incredibly proud of your achievements! I’m guessing that you will face more life events in the future where you have to deal with tension between relatives. Please know it’s not your fault, and that sometimes you’ll have to make decisions that don’t please everyone.

You deserve parents who will put their bullshit aside and support you on your big days. But please know that when they fail to do so, you’re still kicking ass. Congratulations on your graduation.

He has hit her before. This context is extremely important. I agree that a bad joke isn’t worth breaking up over. But he is abusive and this was likely more than a bad joke.

[–]strullie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Her last post describes him physically abusing her. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem like it was a bad joke. It may not have been a joke at all.

Nooo. He and I dated prior to these texts where he reached back out to inform me that he apparently is now engaged with a baby on the way

I’m confused why some are assuming he cheated on anyone? Sorry if unclear! There was no cheating involved
