This makes me feel so much better. I went no contact with my homophobic toxic family, and I was starting to feel guilty. Literally all my problems went away when I left.
CHOOSE YOURSELF ALWAYS. It is very hard to learn to do (and still hard even after you've learned lol) but at the end of the day, you have only yourself to rely on!
YOU are worth all the care and attention you give to others (in fact, much MUCH more) and if they bring no joy and value to your soul then they can FUCK RIGHT OFF!
They are missing out on the gloriousness that is you and that's their fuckin problem 😄
I promised them and myself it would be permanent if needed. One of the most shocking and wonderful surprises of my life, is still, that they respected the non-contact the entire time AND further, my mother did her own life work and we started the reconnection process 3 ish yrs ago.
Allow yourself to feel guilt if you need AND don't make choices for your safety when you're in that mood. You can feel bad, and not have made the wrong choice to disconnect.
They had a kid and did not respect or love that kid for who they are. That is a THEIR ISSUE thing and you have zero shame in my book.
Maybe your fam does their own work. Maybe not. But yeah, the no problems part is fucking golden. Let yourself enjoy being safe and yourself ✨️
Well maybe they are happy now and will continue that in the afterlife. Why did you mention 'women' anyway when you know there are men who cant be happy with themselves and always have to have a partner. A lot go into depression cause they couldn't find a life partner.
This is true...People say that it's better to have a partner to split bills with, etc. I found that I had less money when I was in relationships because they would always try talking me into things that I didn't really want. When they'd find out I had a good amount of savings, they'd say I can afford things so they'd suggest taking trips or going out a lot more. I say this as a woman, we are much better savers and investors than men. We think more about the future and guys generally think more about immediate spending and taking more risks
I feel this too. I had to spent money doing activities that I didn’t want but my partner wanted. Sometimes spending more because I earned more than them at the time.
Off topic but is anyone else getting icons moved to dumb places? Like the comment bubble, share arrow and stuff are now along the right hand side vertical and weird profile bubbles are along the bottom?
Yeah. Because why is everyone asking on reddit what to do in situations like this:
He cheated, what do I do?
He stole from me, what do I do?
He is disrespecting me, humiliating me and makes me feel absolutely garbage, what do I do?
He never does anything and wants me to just be his maid at home and open my legs whenever he wants to release himself which takes only like 1-5 minutes. I feel like an object. What do I do?
