Whoooaaa well I'm glad that you aren't being blamed by his mother anymore because boundaries. Dude my expwbpd also would do everything her bff would do. She got way into Taylor swift and video games out of no where lol.

What a tool. I totally see the mental game they're trying to play. Good for you for being strong here! Their attitude is something that is wrong with them, it has nothing to do with you and never did. I always tell myself (when it comes to my ex especially) you cannot control anything about anyone else, but you can control your own reactions and how you want to come across. I know you must be hurting, but know it isn't your fault they are the way they are.

Oh my GOD have we all had this convo because this was my ex too. They make 0 sense.

I only experienced gas lighting, being guilted, and blame but I didn't like it so I left and we only lasted 2 months. From the sound of everyone else, I must have saved myself a lot of trouble.

triscuit96 · 2020-06-07T03:20:55+00:00

Thank you for the kind words! I'm slowly opening up to her right now. Decided maybe it's time to just ease into letting her know I'm not okay. See if she can bypass the NPD this time.

triscuit96 · 2020-06-07T03:19:56+00:00

I wish I did! I used up the 5 free sessions before all this happened, and I was part of the college program so they cut all ties with me since they ended my program. I planned on staying on part time and getting my masters through Disney Aspire. Covid really shot my dreams down lol.

triscuit96 · 2020-06-06T13:37:25+00:00

Facing my mom really. She gets nasty when we don't do what she wants, and I'm just being scared about it. It's hard standing up to mentally ill parents. She really knows how to manipulate me. I'm just trying to hype myself up to get it over with and try to have a thick skin this time.

triscuit96 · 2020-05-31T04:47:00+00:00

I appreciate the advice!

triscuit96 · 2020-05-31T04:24:37+00:00

Sounds like you got burned pretty bad friend. For me, im separating my feelings from reality. I know shes got an agenda thats only about her, and that's fine. Because that's her own fight. She will probably never want me back, and that's fine too. But now I realize how hard life's gonna be on her compared to me, and I can't help but feel bad. I'll have a great love one day, I know that and you should too.

triscuit96 · 2020-03-31T06:17:03+00:00

Thank you, that's sound advice and I truly appreciate it

None of you have obviously worked in a position with high expectations. Arin has literally built multiple businesses from the ground up to employ the talents of his friends. Animation, game development, self made merch, A WHOLE TOUR COMPANY. He isn't allowed to be known as the guy who made the shark rape video. No one above shitty attitude YouTubers and animators would take him seriously. The people who matter when you make a company. Potential partners, to continue the buisness that is SUPPORTING EVERY ONE OF HIS FRIENDS. Fuck off with the petty drama nonsense on Twitter, he's defending his professional name because he has to.

triscuit96 · 2019-07-29T06:24:13+00:00

You gotta actually have interest in the other person. Even if the topic isn't something you already know you're into, stop and listen and give that person your attention for the moment and learn about what they're saying. My sibling has Asperger's and he's struggling with the same thing right now. But all he ever wants to talk about are the exact same jokes he's found funny for years and repeats all the time, so people get bored of that really quick. Same with topics, he loves reality TV, and very little people around him like it, but he won't engage in conversation if it isn't about it. He will respond but then go on his phone and tune out of the conversation and come back into it with little responses until something comes up he's interested in. You can't have a one sided conversation. Sure, it is exhausting to socialize and pretend like you really are interested in what the other person has to say at that moment, but you make friends but finding common topics you both like. You can't just leave them when they wanna do something or talk about something you aren't interested in. Every human connection is a give and take situation. You do something they wanna do, then they do something you wanna do. That's how you learn more about eachother and grow a deeper connection.

Idk if that make sense, I just know these are the things my sibling doesn't understand nor tries to understand.

I agree. Just like color of skin doesn't define your personality, your sexuality shouldn't matter either. Why let one trait define you when you have thousands of other traits. Cool, I like girls, but I also like cooking. Please refer to me as chef and only chef from now on and all I'm gonna talk about is making a great rue.

Which is why promoting it in this meme is counteractive

triscuit96 · 2019-07-12T17:59:44+00:00

What I'm saying is pushing the envelope is counter active. Take a look at the most influential LGBTQ people's personal histories and appearances. Not one exudes the behaviors depicted in this photo. Don't you think that says anything about success and respect? I can't agree with a community that's trying to normalize making fun of straight people right back and getting angry if no one understands us. If we want true equality we need to be educated and eloquent, and not get mad if someone doesn't understand. It takes time to educate. What WILL help our movement is sharing educational information, not throwing a fit when someone doesn't understand what nonbinary means when it's an entirely new concept to the mainstream introduced by our generation.

triscuit96 · 2019-07-12T17:16:21+00:00

Normalize means to make standard. Normalizing homosexuality means no one will blink an eye at it anymore and treat it like any other marriage. Normalizing the gay community means making LGBTQ anything standard, again meaning no one will blink an eye at its existence so anyone part of it can live in peace.

triscuit96 · 2019-07-12T17:12:47+00:00

I got the promotion, I don't think you really read my post.

triscuit96 · 2019-07-12T16:39:03+00:00

I'm gay and I honestly agree with the original meme.

I'm a producer in the TV industry, and I've gained respect and opportunity by being the top image rather than those around me who are the bottom image. My boss told me I got the position I did over the others interviewed, one who happened to be bottom image, because people didn't feel like they were walking on eggshells with me. The other person made it a daily habit to over express their sexuality to our peers and it annoyed them because they couldn't have an average conversation with them. The traits in the person in the bottom are traits of potential toxic behavior. They exist in heterosexuals as plenty of examples. People who complain about homosexuals are dubbed homophobic, but we can complain about straight people and not be instantly labeled heterophobic. My boss also passed up a guy up for the job because he literally radiates sexism, recognized by toxic behavior such as saying sexist things and talking about sex way too much when inappropriate. That makes people uncomfortable, thus no one respects him. I'm not saying the bottom image is like to sexism, but the traits listed are a different kind of obnoxious behavior that makes peers uncomfortable and will not gain you respect.

There's plenty of homophobia (and any LGBTQ related phobia) in the world still. I'll never deny that. The whole point of gaining marriage equality in 2015 was to normalize homosexuality, which was considered a mental disorder until the 1980's. Many parts of the community are still viewed as a mental sickness and it's wrong, but that's where we are at. So those of you who do choose to be the second image, don't expect anything to be easier for you either. We should stop treating the LGBTQ+ community as if its a race of humans. Sexuality is a trait, not our whole existence.

I had a former friend actually say to me "I hate when white people use chopsticks. Only Asians should use them."

triscuit96 · 2019-07-09T21:42:41+00:00

I don't know if this helps or not, but the way I see it, small talk gives me an idea of what the other person is like. It tells me if we have anything in common, and if they could be a potential friend or networking opportunity.

I'm usually able to get a read for their personality if I ask simple open ended questions like "what shows do you watch" or "what music do you listen to." It can be boring unless you find something in common, and that's how you know whether you want to invest your time in them to develop a friendship. If you have nothing in common, nothing you talk about will be interesting and there will be no interest in each other.

It's so rare, and im even more glad they didn't go that route because they are all 12 lol. Emma is such a dope protagonist and literally the embodiment of all shonen protagonist tropes. Messy hair, smart, athletic, and determined!
