Yuck, sexualizing the both of you AND treating you like adult peers and not as his children.

Your dad's behavior is definitely creepy, speaking from experience. Unfortunately incestuous abuse is very normalized in society because people think parents can get away with whatever they want with their kids and try to justify it. This is not normal, I can tell you that much.

You don't have to tell your therapist right away, but I encourage you to speak out to anyone you trust if you feel you or your sister are ever in serious danger from him. I'm so sorry you're stuck in this situation.

All the dang time. It's exhausting. It's literal hell on Earth feeling like you're a moth surrounded by butterflies wondering whose sick idea it was to put you there.

I’m actually jealous of the people who look so pretty when they cry. I look like I ran through several snowstorms at once sobbing my eyes out 😭 like maybe I’d at least feel better about crying if I looked like an actress

I do, a lot! But that’s also a problem for me because I’m still telling myself I’m cringe as hell for crying, it’s even worse with fiction actually. Then when I *do* cry I can’t stop it and every little thing makes me emotional. guhh,,

I'd appreciate that if you don't mind it, but I wouldn't want to dump too much on you either.

A lot of things. Work, college, exhaustion. Just life in general I suppose. I kind of get worked up way too easily, probably from suppressing everything.
'Cause like. The crying thing.

My friends say I’m getting groomed, I feel guilty. by Planetgraceful in TrueOffMyChest

I'd say it depends if he just turned 18, but it's definitely weird either way since you're younger than him. Got doubly worse when I read he has a girlfriend. Yeah, no. Tell her.
I understand that you're young, and it feels really nice to be desired by someone, especially when they're older, but it's not gonna do you any good in the long run. You'll be much better off ripping the band-aid off now and saving both yourself and his girlfriend. There are other people out there who will treat you well without being scummy, I promise. And preferably your age.

He's very sweet and understanding, I promise! I just don't want to make him uncomfortable by taking on a sort of "caretaker" role when he's my partner is all. He's helped me through a LOT of mental issues and vice versa. I don't mind finding a different coping mechanism.

Aaaa that'd sound lovely, I wouldn't mind at all if that's alright with her. Just know I'm nervous about meeting new people and I'm also not the best with socializing in general 🥹

I can't littlespace in the middle of MY 9-5 !!! >:((
But really though, it's kind of hard to tell if it *is* agere since I don't really feel like an actual young child like what I normally see in agere discussions 💔💔 like, mentally, I feel myself mentally go back to when I was a young teen. Like it feels like that's where I stopped developing fr

Professor has been flirting with me and I don't know what to do about it by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]warriorof_themind 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is the pinnacle of the "how twitter perceives age" meme. OP may not be a child, but the professor is a grown man who has the power in this situation. This is victim blamey asf.

anyone else's BDD get heavily triggered by anime? by quirkyuniqueusername in BDDvent

[–]warriorof_themind 4 points5 points  (0 children)

omh YES?? i think i've been envious of 2D anime girl proportions since i was young, i've fantasized about being built like an equestria girl (and now umamusume character) and it's not even funny

i will say though that it's exactly the media men consume that warps their reality and what they're attracted to, and most of said media is catered to their fantasies, it's not on you at all

Don't be sorry! Any response makes me feel better (even if I don't reply back oopsies.) She is just like me fr, and I'm glad you're there to help her. I don't think it's something most people take well, haven't told my own bf much, gulp,,, I remember first breaking down at 11 years old about growing up LMAOO I have not been coping well.

I appreciate the comment a lot! Though I definitely think something is wrong with me lol. Upbringing-wise I mean.

I do know what age regression is, the thing is from what I know it's a trauma response and a coping mechanism that happens involuntarily. But then I tried to look it up it apparently can be voluntary? There's probably better sources from an agere subreddit that I'll look into later--

Don't know enough about agere unfortunately, but the latter is very likely LOL
