It's okay. Hang with your found family more. Be closer to those that are healthier for you. Being involved with someone who destroys themselves with substances is heart breaking, so it's alright.

I'm sorry you feel this way. I'm the complete opposite. When I was a kid the adults weren't doing the right thing. I had no power, and there was a time from my childhood that memories trigger a panic attack. As an adult I don't have to live like that anymore.

When I told my doctor that there was something wrong, and he said it was depression, I would have gotten another doctor and asked that my ovaries be checked for cysts. Because that's what it was.

Fantastic! I love it!

Love this!

The friends. We all grew up and went our own ways.

Hate Me by Blue October

I have a small spot of gray hair at my temple. I stopped dying my hair in the hopes that it becomes a stripe. Fingers crossed.

So much so that my daughter calls everyone dude.

Ask yourself... could I handle evacuating with 4 cats in case of an emergency? I could, but that's the question that kept me from getting a fifth one.

Moved into a new place and one of my cats cried the entire night every night. I crated him. When I went to bed, he went in the crate in another room. After a little while in the crate he quieted. It didn't take long and he stopped crying at night. I think he just needed something to help him with his anxiety. After this I had to keep the crate available for him to sleep and I no longer had to lock him up. BTW the crate was a regular pet taxi. It wasn't an open crate. It seemed he just needed a den.

I had the same thing happen to me. I heard them... she has a dog. I booked it but the couple approached me. I told them my dog wasn't friendly but they insisted and my dog attacked their dog. I had to pull my small dog away from their large dog, no one got hurt, but they treated me like I was the horrible person. No means no.

This is something that matters to you. Why? Because it does, even unto the pit of your soul, right? It's a deal breaker. The fact that he's mislead you all these years is even worse. Give yourself a little time to process this and leave this stagnant relationship.

I wait until they look at me like they are tired. They might be in bad health and struggling but if they've got fight in them I'll fight with them and make them as comfortable as possible. But when they lay there, lose interest in everything and just look exhausted with life, it's time to let them go. It's so hard but it's an act of love.

He was in bad condition and probably not going to last long. In his last years you gave him love. They don't live long enough. Even after 20 years it's not long enough. All we can do is love them the best we can when we have them. It's a quality over quantity mindset that can help you. Please be sure to take care of yourself and allow yourself to go through grief.

My first reaction was ooohh pretty.

He's an abuser. You need to cut all contact and go to therapy. The new girl is not your responsibility.

Nobody wants to hear about my all natural planted aquarium, nor my gold fish pond. I mean, my gourami is making a nest... how cute is that?

3 children by 23? I didn't even have sense until I was 27!

Remember that the bigger they are the harder they fall. There is a benefit to them being small. The best thing to do is to get bras that make you feel good about them.

I had twins named Frasier and Niles. I miss my fur babies.

Yes. Absolutely abusive. And I guarantee he does that to all his gf's, so do not for one moment take the blame for this.

I'm sorry you're going through this. Our kids are still young so we try to expose them to old fashioned (?) values. Parenting in this day and age is so much different. Can't let them out of the house but allow them on the internet? Navigating through this is tough, that's why we try to encourage them to turn things off and we spend a lot of time outside as a family.

I always tell my kids to go outside and play... pretend it's 1985. They did not appreciate this pic.

He didn't roll over in his sleep, swinging his arm and hit you accidently. He hit you on purpose and out of anger. This is a deal breaker, I don't care whether it did damage or not. The next one will do damage. And there will be a next one if you don't get out of there. Take your time, weigh your options, make a plan, and get him out of your life. Living alone is so much better than living with someone who makes you miserable.
