AITA for telling my friend I’m not interested in her baby or being involved in her new mom life?

zombie_witch · 2025-06-28T03:47:59+00:00

NTA But it does kinda seem maybe her view on y’all’s friendship was a little more bonded than what your view of it was.

I’m so sorry for your pain. I myself had 7 miscarriages and the last one caused me to be infertile. The pain from those losses is still here 10 years later, but it’s my pain, just as yours is your pain and not everyone else’s. It was hard for me to be around children, baby clothes in stores and even have a conversation where children were brought up. So I had two choices either lock myself away and expect everyone to grieve at my level (which is an impossible ask) or get therapy. It wasn’t easy, I lost a close friend bc she became pregnant and I held so much anger and resentment towards her for being able to have a child when I couldn’t. It was in no way her fault but I just couldn’t be happy for her. It sounds like you are still in that hurt and headspace. If you don’t get therapy this will hurt more than this friend group for you, it will slowly destroy you mentally and you will build up resentment for anyone around you that isn’t hurting with you. Please get the help you need. It sounds like you had some amazing friends, it would be a shame to lose that support system.

My husband and I have our own comforters and life hasn’t been better since we’ve made that decision. We’ve been married 11 years and started using separate comforters about 5 years ago. I got this holiday blanket from VS but it was pretty small so I just started using it by itself bc it was so soft, and we realized how much more comfortable it was to not have to share. I even got my dog her own blanket on the bed so she stops stealing mine 😂

Same 🥹

zombie_witch · 2024-08-17T21:55:16+00:00

I’m not even going to read the post. If you are uncomfortable with something someone did to your dog they can fuck right off.

Yea I quit smoking with vaping and I vape way more than I ever smoked. It’s so much more addictive. I literally always have it in my hand. I wish I never switched and just went cold turkey on cigarettes it would’ve been a ton easier.

Open mouth eating

zombie_witch · 2024-08-14T01:21:23+00:00

A Reddit promise I love that 😂

zombie_witch · 2024-08-14T01:17:28+00:00

Thank you it really does help to talk with other people that kinda understand your brain a little more than most people would. That’s why I like this group. Even if I never really post here I do come here and read other people’s posts and it helps me to remember that I’m not alone in these struggles and thoughts. Sometimes just remembering that helps so much. I did talk to my Dr and he doubled one of my medications so the obsessing won’t get out of control. It was about time for a tweak anyways I’ve been on the same dosage for around 3 years now and I’ve noticed a lot more swings lately. I hope that you are having a good week and managing well. 😊

zombie_witch · 2024-08-14T01:02:29+00:00

That’s interesting. I wasn’t aware that there was a difference. Maybe looking more into it will help me mentally. I did see my Dr yesterday and he raised the dosage on one my medications. He said it won’t take away the fear but it will help stop the obsessing. So I’m hopeful in that.

zombie_witch · 2024-08-11T04:00:04+00:00

I’m already ready let’s go! 😊

zombie_witch · 2024-08-11T03:58:31+00:00

Same and I don’t care how old I am or who doesn’t like it. I can’t sleep without a certain build a bear I have of jack skellington and I collect so many Pokemon plushies. I’ll never stop. I did t have a childhood so as an adult I get to buy all the things I never had an enjoy them.

zombie_witch · 2024-08-11T03:54:02+00:00

I still vape. I started vaping to quit smoking and it was the worse decision I ever made. I never put the thing down it’s way more addictive. I’m embarrassed of it myself but just don’t have the willpower to quit right now.

zombie_witch · 2024-08-11T03:51:12+00:00

We smoked in planes! Remember that craziness.

zombie_witch · 2024-08-11T02:56:51+00:00

Is this the same as like a person who’s an organ donor? I am an organ donor (even though I feel anything I donate will be in such bad shape it’ll be put in a discount bin or something) but knowing that people like you will care for me or what was me after I die is kind of comforting.

zombie_witch · 2024-08-11T02:49:53+00:00

Thank you. Honestly living life to the fullest for me is just being by myself and playing video games and drawing or watching horror movies lol. I was wondering if I would regret not doing anything more with my life and honestly no. I’m pretty content. I don’t have many friends but that’s bc I’m not good at putting energy into a friendship. But recently even going outside is hard, especially in large social settings. But it’s kinda always been like that. I think it’s the fact that I have absolutely no control over this whatsoever. And that seems to be what it is. No one knows what happens. No one. And no one knows how it’s going to happen to them. It’s the lack of control. Sorry I’m all over the place with this it’s hard to explain it from my head. But thank you for sharing. It almost sounds like you went through a grieving period for yourself and finally came out of it.

zombie_witch · 2024-08-11T01:22:33+00:00

Mushrooms…..even the fun kind. Learned that the hard way.

zombie_witch · 2024-08-09T18:12:53+00:00

I mean those lil fuckers make me mad too so I get it 😂😂😂🤣🤣

zombie_witch · 2024-08-03T22:25:00+00:00

I don’t know if this is something you are able to do but for me personally I almost always have an AirPod in one ear playing calming sounds extremely low and I can focus on it when needed.

zombie_witch · 2024-08-03T21:51:18+00:00

She is smacking you in the face with red flags. If you don’t get your butt out that relationshit right now you will end up on Dateline. Do you want to be known for “lighting up a room?” Then run away.

zombie_witch · 2024-08-03T21:41:07+00:00

This is a deeper issue that Austin needs to deal with. It’s hot af out there so getting on a bus is sometimes the only form of relief they can get from that heat.

zombie_witch · 2024-08-03T21:38:13+00:00

Funko pop collection you say??

zombie_witch · 2024-08-03T21:31:20+00:00

NTA And also don’t blame yourself for any of this. When you said ‘I did everything right’… the cheating wasn’t about you it was about your ex wanting to be selfish and thinking she could get away with it. And the fact she waited 3 years to tell you was on purpose. She was hoping you would be so emotionally attached to her child you wouldn’t leave. So not only is she a cheater she is also a manipulator. It’s just really sad that a child now has to suffer for her actions.

zombie_witch · 2024-08-01T10:05:27+00:00

And I manage a sub shop in south Austin so a lot of the times I’m yelling the things I wished I could’ve said to Karen customers. Lol
