A dude posted a meme on LinkedIn of all places comparing himself to Don Draper. I was like for real? You want your business network to know you aspire to: being perpetually drunk or hung over, leaving your colleagues in the lurch on so many occasions that you lose your partnership, and having breakdowns under the constant fear of your massive lifelong lie being discovered? Any success Don had was because of his ability to wear a suit well/be tall/have hair, and get through difficult situations (…

https://www.aa.org/sites/default/files/2021-11/en_bigbook_chapt8.pdf The "To Wives" chapter from the AA big book is so hilarious and sad. For those who aren't aware, it was written by the founder of AA pretending to be a woman (his wife asked to write it, he said no). What could've been a helpful tool for women trying to understand and live with the nightmare of an alcoholic husband, is instead page after page of blame shifting, justifying shitty behavior and guilt tripping. It puts all the resp…

A colleague of mine did this last year when our company went basically fully remote for some positions. She spent almost as much as I did on my first home, on her custom SUV+RV combo with mods. It has a full washroom, proper bedroom and kitchen/dining. She plans her trips around meetings, working from the road and staying in hotels when needed. She still owns a place that she rents as a vacation property most of the year for extra income, which she comes back to to recharge, get maintenence done…

I've lost too much time analyzing exes' behavior trying to figure out whyyyyyy. Trying to categorize and label them so I could get "closure", which by the way is often a myth. How about the closure is: he wasn't on the same level as me so I moved on with my life, fin. OP congrats to you 🥂

"Declaring war" is going against someone one, right? "Establishing boundaries" is solely for yourself. Anyone and no one can step over those boundaries, they keep existing because you set them regardless. No matter who does or doesn't fight them, you keep enforcing them. The boundaries are for you rather than against anyone else.

I went to Hooters with a group of girls very early in my professional career, because we heard some of the sales guys were going and didn't want anyone to know. We thought we were really going to stick it to them or make the guys uncomfortable, but the only people uncomfortable were us and the waitresses. The guys loved it, like we couldn't resist following them there, and whooped it up even more. What a dumb and pointless idea.

We (at least me and my age group) came up being told OLD was the solution. Everything else had an online option: job applications, college coursework, your magazines, why would you give up the opportunity to meet your soulmate by not having an OLD profile? In a perfect world, it makes perfect sense, but alas here we are. It takes a lot to let go of that, and realize the odds are good but the goods are odd. Sure you could clock tons of hours on apps trying to find the exception, and best of luck …

I agree with you/your links. My use of the word "work" just refers to prostitution requiring lots of labor and effort. As you say, just like slavery. Some think it's easy and lazy, which I disagree with. I do not think it's a job in the proper sense, and do not think it benefits the worker as a job should. They are not free, and again I hope they get out.

I've given men big Valentine's gifts - looking back, it was extra as hell and didn't help the relationship one bit. They don't even want it, it's weird. Best to focus on being an appreciative recipient of what he's planned, and at most gifting him something tiny/thoughtful (beyond your presence)

The same people who asked me why I didn't try harder to make my marriage work, also insist that they "would never put up with that" when I describe what actually went down living with my ex husband. So which is it, guys?

And good damn luck if your abusive ex/father of your children is a first responder or veteran. Because we all, as a community and as a nation, have an obligation to respect how they manifest their PTSD, and they have a god given right to treat their children like 9 miles of dogshit before prioritizing therapy. He's going through something don't you know????? Anyway let's all share a nice shocked Pikachu face when something terrible happens and/or the children are affected for life. Dads' rights …

Cheating is cheating, but damn when Mrs. Francis did Don like he'd been doing everyone else, treating him like a quick bit of fun then moving on with her life, I rooted for her. You don't even realize he is married with a picturesque family until the pilot credits are about to roll.

I wear my engagement ring on my right hand, as is, when it suits my outfit. I know several ladies who had theirs made into a solitaire necklace and/or earrings, which look quite nice. After reconciling with the marriage needing to end, I personally was fine with wearing the engagement ring, which to me signified the hope and potential. The band I sold though, with no regrets.

Lmao when I'm 51, my kids will be out the door and I didn't start early by any means. There's something VERY different about a woman starting her fertility journey "late" (what I know to be completely healthy, 35-40s, when she lined up lots of resources and will probably do just fine) vs. some dude partying until he's 49 & 11 months and then being like oh shit my legacy

I love museums of any kind, even weird ones. But I've been on museum dates and they're really awful. You're never really facing each other, even if you find seating, and since you don't know each other yet the conversation is just a tennis match of "you like that piece? no? oh me neither". And if one or the other happens to know about something related to the pieces then it just feels like a impromptu lecture. What is so hard about a dinner date?

I am a sucker for a good head of hair, both my parents might as well be hair models so I realize I'm speaking from a place of privilege. At the same time, if you're bald you're bald. Hit the gym, accept it, and move on (universal advice really)

💯 the exceptions are indeed very rare. Every state has done their darnedest to create formulas so that children are taken care of by their parents, and parents are held responsible. Anytime I hear a dude complain about their child support sitch I'm like O RLY?? Do explain?? Because if his problem is that kids are expensive boo fucking hoo you think you're special?

Yes. I've had so many exes obsessed with fairness and justice. Not on an human rights level, but making sure there was the optimal tit-for-tat ratio in their self centered world. If something happened to them they didn't like, humanity better be ready to pay. And of course all of the violations they'd suffered were regular rights of passage type social milestones, that they had complete access to therapy should they have wanted healthy support in processing. Basically this: https://i.kym-cdn.com…

Thanks for posting this OP. Just a few weeks ago I broke it off with someone on intuition, and I had been second guessing myself. Actually it was his idea...I asked him to stop doing something, explaining why it bothered me. His reaction was "well fuck let's just stop dating". Okay! If you insist. I only want to date people that want to date me. He of course back tracks, but the damage had been done so I stood my ground and wished him luck.

You either want kids because you're willing to make the financial/physical/mental investment, or you don't want kids because you understand the toll it takes/risks and prefer not to. Both those decisions are mature. The "I'm not looking to have kids but I'm not opposed to them" doesn't hold water, and when I see something like that on a profile I barf a little.

I did the same this week. I hadn't bought/accepted flowers for nigh on a year, because my LV ex used to buy me flowers after a bender to show me he'd changed (spoiler: he hadn't). A bouquet of flowers, which used to be a fairly frequent treat from myself or a lover/friend, had been ruined by this dingus. No more. I bought myself a gorgeous double dozen of yellow roses. The historical angle only made it better and it was freeing to not have someone else's bad decisions continue to prevent me from…

It's why I had to part ways with the breakingmom sub, even though I too was in the trenches of a failing over/underfunctioning marriage for so long and wanted to support them regaining healthy lives. There's a resentment of single women there that's unmistakable, and it's from a crabs-in-a-bucket mentality.

If ordered to pay child support, be paying it and not bitching about it. I agree with your whole reply, and this stood out the most.

I agree. I think the 9th step is a wonderful idea in theory but it's a mess in real life (see adjacent reply from someone who was set back in their personal healing by someone's apology). By the time an addict starts a program, the people they've harmed have probably (hopefully) started to detach and move on. And that's even assuming the addict's step work is genuine which it's often not, because addicts will try to fool everyone including themselves into thinking they've changed. I'm torn about…

The BIGGEST part of that step is only apologizing IF it won't do the other person harm. If you'll disturb their peace, you're to keep that shit to yourself.

Seconded. My uncle became a widower at 60, and when he was ready to date again after a few years of mourning, I was sure he wouldn't be able to resist dating a much younger woman. He's wealthy, educated, tall, with a full head of hair. He landed a gorgeous woman exactly his age and the only reason they haven't gotten married is because they're too busy enjoying each other's mansions/vacation homes and need to sort out how to merge each other's fortunes.

Penis size. The best sex I ever had was with someone very average who knew what to do. The guys I've been with who had big dicks were all obsessed with how big they were and if anyone else was as big/bigger 🙄

I'm not ignoring it, but we can support that she went out there and did it. I'm a decade into a very male dominated and female oppressing industry, am I in trouble for making a career of it and taking their money?

Hahahah Hahahahahahahaha HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHA Ice cream is delicious to make and eat. I work out (including lifting) more than all of my exes, except two. One has body dysmorphia, the other I haven't spoken to in the decade since he played high school football and according to his Facebook he's fat as hell. I'm gonna keep eating dessert as it fits into my macros. See ya at the gym!!!!

Seeing someone try to explain away being attracted to underage children is so weird. There's 100% nothing they can say to me that will change my mind to accepting it. The longer they go on about """biotruths""", the more I think they're rehearsing what they'll say to the cops

My ex would laugh at me and call me a pussy (I mean... yes?) for listening to guided meditations and nature sounds to manage my panic attacks. Anxiety was fake and made up, just like homosexuality and socialism and everything else he didn't understand. But when he started experiencing shallow breathing, chest constrictions, intrusive thoughts which interfered with his workouts and a fellow meathead at the gym recommended a YouTube channel of chill music, suddenly it was completely fine and norma…

If anyone here has the means and interest in trying an online therapist, PM me for info. I can recommend one who doesn't push religion, is focused on helping you create and enforce boundaries, and is transparent about pricing. edit: she also offers a free phone consultation to make sure it's a good fit for both sides

dudes, you have no fucking idea how hard it is to learn makeup There's so much more to this post, but I need to highlight this. My mom is a natural beauty/70s hippie who only wore the slightest of makeup and only on formal occasions, so I grew up knowing nothing about doing makeup. It truly is a muscle memory, time management, budget focused skill.

I feel like sapiosexual, and any mention of their love language being touch, go into the same bucket of "I don't really know what this means but I feel like if I say it I'll get to grope you by sounding intellectual"

I used to always split on the first date. Now, if I let a man pay when he's asked me to a meal, it means I am interested in letting him into the romantic/sexual space of my life, with time. If I pay now, it's because that door is closed to him. It's a weight lifted off my shoulders. If anyone here is still struggling with the logical fallacies I did, i.e.: paying proves you are responsible for your own money, are low maintenance, and don't owe a guy your body...reconsider. I don't know any girls…

Every time! And full of hot money-saving tips like: don't serve a meal at the reception despite it being at a mealtime; guilt your friends who are photographers/DJs/MUAs/bakers into working for free; use a public outdoor venue when it's hot/rainy/windy/snowing. Congratulations on getting a dress at a thrift shop, making your own bouquets, and printing your own invitations. But don't be a bad hostess!

Try an IUD! I was told by my doctor I was the perfect candidate for one, and one of my friends raved about hers. Tried it. HORRIBLE. Out after three months, never again. This post is spot on and I can personally vouch for 1, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 17.

Seen this movie, I know how it ends! don't let the disease theory of addiction accept the unacceptable Absolutely. When people judge me for leaving my ex/addict, my response (if I can help myself from just saying "fuck you") is that I didn't leave because he was sick, I left because he didn't really want to get better. A HVM (or HVW) would get into recovery and work to stay there - I've seen it happen.

Thank you. I'm still getting shit for leaving my abusive, sick, illogical, black hole of a marriage because relationships "take work" and I should've "tried harder". Fuck that, I tried with everything I had for almost ten years until I had nothing left. If someone else wants to drain themselves for love, their choice. But I'd rather put my efforts into worthy causes and come home to some peace (whether alone or with a partner).

I've noticed the same thing (my ex husband is an addict so I got a crash course in addiction and the comorbid mental health issues like narcissism). When they bring up their glory days and all the crazy shit they got up to, it's also to minimize what other people went through as a result or in comparison.

There's not a whole lot about it online, I came across it when figuring out how to deal with high conflict people. It's basically mimicking a grey rock when things get shitty - the fast moving/destructive stuff washes past you, you do not engage with negative attention, you are smooth and serene.
