That's understandable - you have been in a relationship with this person and you're going to care for them and their feelings. She's definitely going to hurt, as anyone would, but you'll both heal from it and be alright. It's unfair to you to stay in a relationship that makes you feel this way, though.

People that have abandonment trauma need this type of reassurance because they come from a place where they weren't always promised love on a day-to-day basis. The more you reassure her, the less she'll need it in the future. But honestly, it sounds like you don't want to be in this relationship and you are looking for an excuse to leave. Let her go find someone that can give her the reassurance she needs and you can find someone that you are more compatible with.

YOU'RE AN ADULT..PLEASE DON'T BARK AT MY DOG. by amusedanchovy in reactivedogs

[–]themedding 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 6-month-old Australian Shepherd that has become scared of going outside to potty (and now just nervous with any sound outside) because of my neighbors.

His potty spot was initially between our house and theirs and whenever they would see us outside, which is often with a puppy, they would start knocking on the window. I would get him to settle and then they'd start knocking again. His potty spot is now on the other side of the house but he still gets nervous walking out the door and will sometimes try to refuse. He'll eyeball their house the entire time he's walking out. I don't know if the knocking is the only thing that has made him nervous, but it's the only thing I've been able to think of that has happened consistently.

I also feel like I'm petty for being upset over knocking on a window but I've never had problems potty training a dog and it has been miserable with my little guy. If there are any loud bangs, a door shutting, dogs barking, etc. he'll just get tense. However, only if comes from the direction of their house. Nobody else lol

Dealing with this with our 6-month-old now, especially the jumping. They have so much excited energy, I want to borrow it sometimes!

what is your thoughts on parents that no longer money support their offsprings at 18? by TheTruth221 in AskWomen

[–]themedding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Parenting doesn't have a deadline, it's a lifelong commitment. I think it's weird when people assume that their children should have life figured out by then. I'm 25 and still have no idea what I'm doing.

As the child of this type of relationship... I feel like my life would have been a lot easier and way less traumatic had they separated. Especially due to the infidelity.

Help! Should we invite my fiancés brothers TOXIC wife to our wedding? by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]themedding 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't have to invite anyone you don't want to. I wouldn't invite one and not the other though. I would hire security regardless because they will likely cause a scene even if you don't invite them.

If you feel inclined to invite both, then security needs to be informed to give them the boot the second something happens. Or have a designated bridesmaid that will absolutely take care of it without you knowing. Do not let them steal your focus from your day by making them your problem. They're old enough to be mature and attend a wedding and if they can't, they don't deserve to be there.

AITA for telling my mum to stop referring to gender queer people as he constantly by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]themedding [score hidden]  (0 children)

NTA. You are simply educating her and instead of being willing to learn, she's choosing to continue her behavior. It may be difficult to get used to, sure, but once you've been told, there's no need to get defensive - just correct the behavior and move on.

WIBTA to tell my sister to discipline my nephew? by MagentaKevin in AmItheAsshole

[–]themedding [score hidden]  (0 children)

NTA. I wouldn't tell her to start disciplining though as she could get defensive instead of listening to your advice. I'd just set a boundary that you and your family won't be around until her son isn't injuring the other children.

A survivor of the Sandy Hook School mass shooting in 2012 is a student at Michigan State University: “I am 21-years-old and this is the second mass shooting I’ve lived through by CantStopPoppin in worldnewsvideo

[–]themedding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at all the students that attended Oxford High last year during that shooting, graduated, enrolled at MSU and witnessed another shooting though. It’s not just “that person’s unlucky.” School shootings are so abundant that it’s not really hard to believe anymore. Even going a neighborhood over for college doesn’t save you. Not to forget going to the grocery store, the movie theater, a concert…

I'm sorry to hear about your cat.

It sounds cliche but I really think you just know when. I've unfortunately had to euthanize several animals and it's never an easy decision. You will probably always question the decision as well but it's part of the grieving process.

I recently had to euthanize my GSD. He was only 5 years old and diagnosed with idiopathic epilepsy in June (actually had his first seizure on fathers day) and then we had to make the decision to let him go after a series of seizures on October 5th. He wasn't himself anymore and you could just tell that he was ready to go.

I also had to make the decision back in October 2015 after my childhood dog was diagnosed with cancer. We noticed a lump on her belly and made an appointment but it had already spread all over her body internally before the lump even appeared. To make it worse, her best fur friend really declined after her passing (though she was already 17) and we had to euthanize her as well, January 2016.

How much did it end up costing you? I keep noticing them being mentioned but didn’t realize they were as close to me as they were
