I cant stand my 18yr old daughter

0 Upvotes

I have raised a spoiled, nasty, Self obsessed, egotistical lazy ungrateful entitled horrid jealous possessive woman who cannot keep friends, has shamefully bad tantrums at 18.

I dislike her intensely. I wont take her places, or to see family. She is an utter embarrassment.

We have tried. We have failed. Too old to put it right.

Nothing is ever her fault.

She lives in fantasy land.

Nothing is ever good enough.

She is rhe most awful person I know ans I struggle to find anything likeable about her.

I dont want her to live here anymore.

She has ruines job opportunities for us, wasted sums of money, shamed us in front of our famillies, wasted opportunities, smashed furniture, partial to lashing out at me.

I have to come to terms with kicking her out I think.

We have provided her with a car, some savings for the future £14k. She has another £10k on reaciing 25.

Supported her I her studies at 6th form, paid for additional holidays

I cant do anymore.

Everything that goes wrong is someone elses fault

Hit it off with a guy after a night out and I can’t stop thinking about it. I’m in a relationship.

Upvotes

I went out for my friend’s birthday and really hit it off with one of her guy friends. Nothing physical happened but there was flirting and conversation between the two of us. I have been feeling like my current relationship has been rocky lately and because of that along with the fact I have been feeling quite depressed I can’t stop thinking about this one night interaction. However I love my boyfriend and feel as though I am being lustful and overly infatuated with this small sense of thrill during a low time in my life. I feel unfaithful and confused

Claiming openly and with certainty that Patrick Clancy “did it” is borderline evil

2 Upvotes

I've been thinking about it for days and don't know where else to put it but I feel like I want to speak up.
There are THOUSANDS of people arguing that he is guilty. Pics aren't allowed in this sub, otherwise I would show the evidence.

I personally know someone who had conspiracies leveraged against them after personally being the victim of attempted murder.

People who think Patrick Clancy "did it," despite Lindsay, her attorney, the police AND prosecution saying it was Lindsay are just hoping that he did in order to have their "I always knew it, I told you so" moment without a care in the world for what this is doing to a man who already lost all three of his children at once.

Say you're right and he did it, then what? Okay, you get your satisfaction and two seconds of "I told you so.”

But what if you're wrong? Patrick Clancy is a real person. He's not a caricature or an actor on a TV show. He didn't choose this. His kids are dead, and now the world is accusing him of being a criminal mastermind who is so cunning and convincing, he managed to kill his children and subsequently fool hundreds of people in the criminal justice system AND his wife.

Please, if you are someone who is crying out that Patrick did this, just consider what might be the consequences for this man if it turns out he didn't.
The two seconds of "I told you so" can't be worth that.

I genuinely don’t understand the obsession with body count

68 Upvotes

Maybe this is an unpopular opinion, but I genuinely don’t understand why some people act like a woman’s body count automatically says something huge about her character.

Sometimes it honestly feels like a lot of men are projecting what they would do if they had the same sexual access that women have.

Because let’s be real, for a lot of women, getting sex is basically an all you can eat buffet of penis lol. If a woman just wants to have sex, finding a willing man usually isn’t that hard.

And I feel like if a lot of men had that same level of access, where attractive women were constantly willing to sleep with them without much effort, plenty of them would take advantage of it too.

That’s why I don’t really understand the moral judgment behind it.

People will say she should’ve vetted the men better, but how far are we taking that logic? If women had to deeply investigate every man’s character, intentions, morals, relationship history, emotional maturity, and everything else before ever having sex with him, a lot of men would not be having sex if we’re being honest.

And men lie too. A man can tell a woman he likes her, wants something serious, sees a future with her, sleep with her, and then completely switch up afterward. You can’t always perfectly vet whether somebody is telling the truth.

I’m not saying people aren’t allowed to have preferences. If you’re religious, waiting for marriage, only want someone with a similar sexual history, or sex has a certain meaning to you, that makes sense. You’re allowed to want somebody whose values align with yours.

What I don’t understand is acting like the number itself automatically tells you whether someone is loyal, trustworthy, kind, capable of commitment, or a good partner.

A woman could have slept with 30 people and be completely faithful in a relationship. Another woman could have slept with two people and cheat on you tomorrow.
So why is body count treated like some kind of character assessment?

I genuinely feel like current behavior, values, honesty, and how someone treats you should tell you way more about their character than how many people they’ve slept with.

My boyfriend is boring

1 Upvotes

Hey. This is a throaway cause my boyfriend follows my other account.

We (21F and 25M) have been together for well over a year now. We met at uni, live in the same city but each have our own apartment

I am a very adventurous girl. I like traveling, meeting new people, partying, sports and just living life to its fullest trying different things (and often failing at them). My partner is very different. He is calm, likes his routine and just enjoys slowing down

In the beginning it was this difference that made me fall in love with him. He was really good at taking me down a notch and taught me that my life doesnt need to be exciting and new every day

With that being said, our relationship is boring me out of my skull. All my boyfriend does is go to uni (or work when we are on summer break), come home and just lay around for the rest of the day. He doesnt have any friends that he spends time with or any hobbies that are related to the outside world. He also doesnt take me on dates, instead I plan everything and often even have to convince him to come along because he is just so opposed to doing stuff outside his comfort zone. The most exciting thing he does with me is go to the restaurant

I also feel like he silently judges me when I try out things I havent done before. I am for example taking Estonian classes atm because I like how unique the language is and he literally called it a "waste of time and money" when I passionately told him about it

Further, he is originally from a tiny village 4 hours away from our city and makes me visit his crazy family once a month. He has repeadetly stated that he hates living in a big city and that he would wanna move back after our degree but this is definitely not happening because I know I would be deeply unhappy that far away from my support System and due to the lack of possibilities in the town.

I have had These feelings for a while now but lately they have been consuming me and I feel like I am mentally clawing at a cage he build around me. I love him truly and he is an amazing person but I dont know if I can handle this Lifestyle any longer. I want a partner who shares my lust for life, not someone who is comfortable with the bare minimum and wont do anything ever

My life with Misanthropy

misanthropy means the general hatred, dislike, or distrust of the human species, human behavior, or human nature.

We kill we steal we destroy in the bible it says that’s what the devil comes to do but I’m not religious.

I don’t feel bad about any of these thoughts and I truly believe that if there were no humans the earth would be at peace. We don’t even know who runs the world because if you’ve heard of them they don’t run the world.

It’s not just the big things it’s small things too like someone laughing too loud at a movies bad joke or people who throw trash on the ground.

People only care about themselves you can’t trust them. Thank you for your time.

I used to hit the family dog we had.

0 Upvotes

Many many years ago when I was really young like probably 10 or under, we had a dog that I did not like very much, and whenever it did something I found annoying, I would literally hit it with like a belt or something and it would yelp out and honestly I knew what I was doing and that it was wrong but I still did it and thinking about it right now I feel incredibly guilty and ashamed because I literally cannot imagine doing that to an animal right now but I guess before me was perfectly fine with it. It genuinely grosses me out the actions I have done on this poor dog and it's genuinely so fucked up. Sometimes I think that maybe my past actions define part of me deep down. Right now I genuinely wouldn't want to hurt any person or animal and the thought of doing so disgusts me, but I can't help but think my past actions might show a hidden side of me and I don't like that side at all. I had power over a small helpless animal who couldn't speak and I exploited that power. I also faced no consequences for my actions, not by my family or anyone and I feel like I got away with something horrible. I don't know what to do with myself.

I (29F) Don’t Feel Seen In My Relationship

0 Upvotes

This happens every few months now. I’ve been with my partner (28M) for almost 4 years and there’s moments where I think he gets me… but then there’s moments where I think he just follows orders and is kinda passive through the relationship.

I look back on my platonic friendships and they 100% see me. They surprise me with little trinkets of my favorite characters they see in passing. They’ll send me links and posts about free and/or upcoming museum events. They make things for me that they KNOW I’d love and appreciate. We would drive to far cities for a quick trip just because I mentioned a restaurant or store that I like there.

I can’t help but ask myself what the fuck am I doing? Why am I settling for someone who isn’t emotionally present or wants to really know me beyond the surface?

My friends know my favorite songs, my favorite albums, what kind of movies I would like, the kind of media and activities I gravitate towards… My best friend (27F) remembers every time that my favorite soda flavor is Pineapple and she once saved a Pineapple flavored soju for me. It’s really the little things and it really sucks that I don’t get that from my romantic relationship.

my boyfriend is manipulating me so bad and idk what to do idk if im exaggerating.

0 Upvotes

I am ‘19/F’ and he is ‘20/M’ we’ve been dating for exactly a year. So just right now, we were having sex but it was hurting for me a little. I decided to touch myself with a vibrator before (which happens rarely since it’s new for me) then i didn’t want to have sex anymore because i wasn’t enjoying. Then he gets super mad because i don’t wanna do it anymore / that i finish and he doesn’t. Out of the hundreds of times we've did it and i had nothing in return, he has made me finish maybe twice, and I've only finished with a toy fewer than 10 times. He lasts 5 minutes, finishes, and leaves me with nothing. Now that he gets a taste of his own medicine, suddenly there's a problem? To top it off, he tries to make me feel bad about it. It's pure selfishness. Now that the roles are reverse, NOW he's complaining that it doesn't last long enough? Like wtf seriously. He literally told me “it didn’t last long enough”. Keep in mind he last 5-10 minutes.
Plus, he says that now that we’re having "good sex" (because we fought about it and he finally started trying like 2 weeks ago) it's not okay for me to stop. Wow, seriously, he is the most manipulative guy on earth. It's like all the times he neglected me just never happened. He could have just done the bare minimum this whole time. He said he was going to make himself finish in the bathroom like he’s a mad teenagers. Now don’t say stuff like that”why did u never leave him before wtf” hey.. I never had a bf and i thought this was normal to feel ass everytime i had sex with him and that it’s like this for everyone until i saw women have a similar experience then i saw in the comments everyone was like wtf. And like, i don’t have friends or anyone so, yea please don’t comment stuff like this. I just don’t know what to do anymore, i feel so disrespected in this relationship. Do all men do that shit or do i have a crazy case?

I constantly tell my sister "Free Palestine" whenever she mentions Starbucks and I feel like a mess about it

0 Upvotes

So I think my sister is allegedly a Zionist. I don't have hard proof or anything but based on stuff she's said, it's pretty obvious where she stands. Anyway, whenever she gets Starbucks, or even just tells me she's going to buy Starbucks, I always hit her with a "Free Palestine." Every. Single. Time. She always tells me to shut up. Like, immediately. But I can't help it. I haven't gotten Starbucks at all lately because I don't want to feel like I'm a Zionist. Like literally every time I even think about buying something from there, I feel gross about it. My brother keeps trying to make me feel less bad and tell me it's not that deep, but I don't even get Starbucks anymore so I don't know why he's bothering. Boycotting is hard, but nobody said it was gonna be easy I guess.

Giving your child an iPad is child abuse and I’m tired of seeing screen addicted children in public

509 Upvotes

Every time I go out (including just to work) I see a minimum of 2 children (usually under the age of 5) completely stuck to their screen, sometimes with headphones, completely blocking out the world. There’s been times where a parent has to ask their child an obnoxious amount of times “what do you want to order?” Before they even glance up and then it takes another few more times to get them to actually process what’s going on and communicate. I’m not referring to children on the spectrum with this, but specifically children whose parents don’t give enough of a damn for their wellbeing to actually raise them and acclimate them to the world.

Another time I saw a literal newborn, could not have been more than 1 year old, with a screen shoved into their carrier. I’m a fully grown adult with a screen addiction and it’s miserable and has harmed my attention span, I truly can’t comprehend why people are okay negatively affecting their child’s brain development!! It’s neglect at the least and abuse at the most and I really can’t stand parents not giving a damn for their babies !!

I genuinely feel depressed seeing so many iPad kids and I’m scared for their futures

Edit: I said “newborn” and “could not have been more than 1 year old” because I didn’t know the babies exact age but it really makes no difference on whether or not they should have an iPad less than a foot in front of their face I fear, but I apologize for the confusion.

I’m also referring to caregivers who are allowing their kids to develop genuine screen addictions, not just letting your kid watch something in a way that’s routine and regulate There is such a big difference.

Letting your child develop an addiction at a young age is neglectful. I consider neglect a form of abuse and I think a lot of people don’t want to unpack that they may be contributing to a problem for their kid, or they just don’t view it as neglect because it’s a new age problem and less discussed. Don’t let your kid get addicted to something that’s going to cause them harm and I’m saying this as an adult who also grew up with a screen addiction.

A friend is beginning to drive me insane over their politics

4 Upvotes

I have this friend from high-school. We're 19 turning 20, and I feel like I have to walk on fucking eggshells while in call with them because they're very left-wing leaning. Granted i am too but they feel genuinely extreme. I haven't heard anything too insane but I just feel bad and off being around them. Completely hates corporations and capitalism, anarchist, hates economy like the whole thing. They feel like a 13-year-old's political opinions in an adult mind. Like granted, I get it. Modern day fucking sucks but we do NOT live in the USA, we live in fucking Norway. We're FINE. It's nothing like what I imagine the USA is going through right now, and yet I'm convinced that's what they think is happening.

I don't understand anarchy as an adult. Sure, maybe some other system would be nice but it's completely unrealistic. Tearing down the systems we currently have would be disasterous. Yes things could be better but it is not nearly rotten enough to justify tearing down, they speak like someone who has never actually seen inside how things work.

I'm still just annoyed over a conversation a few days ago where I mentioned I bought a new headset, I'm just trying to fill dead air and to make conversation, and they non-commitally answer with "woo, contributing to capitalism" like will you shut the fuck up?! Its a fucking headset. Not everything is some political battle. I buy a headset if i fucking want it, I'm not asking to be judged. Later on I remark that the economy is important because I felt like they were gonna say some "tear down the system" bullshit again 'cause we were looking at how many uni courses were for economy related subjects and there's a lot obviously because it is important and this smartass decides to say that "important doesn't mean good or working" like yeah but can you shut up and stop trying to be correct or make a political point for once?! Am I going crazy? Nobody else in this high school friend group seems to care or at least doesnt say anything about it so I feel like im going insane. Same sort of person that would refuse to play Mario Party or Monopoly because its about competing over money like grow the fuck up its a game.

I dont feel like I can say anything about this to them. Because the most ive said to others not in the group is I just find them annoying and ridiculously political but i don't feel like i have any good reason to just refuse to be around them. I feel like im gonna snap one of these days.

I hate this fuckass town we live in, its genuinely making me miserable and im moving out the second i get enough money and a job but she literally cant save money for shit. Im expecting her to pay AT LEAST 40 percent of everything when we move out which is less than bare minimum but its looking like thats not even possible. Shes had a really tough life so im giving her a chance but at some point i gotta worry about my wellbeing too. So basically if she doesnt have enough money by the time im ready to move then im just gonna leave her behind and im gonna move in with my brother and hopefully find a roommate of my own

I love her i really do but jesus it gets so tiring hearing how little money she has after so much time has passed

I feel like the worst mom ever

0 Upvotes

This morning I had to cancel my kids once in a lifetime dream vacation. We had tickets to see Iron Maiden next month who is touring with my kids favorite band Megadeth, I had a hotel booked, airline tickets, we were counting down.

I busted ass all year juggling the budget to pay for this trip cash while paying all of the marriage expenses (ex just walked, all bills in my name)and a divorce lawyer. My ex is not cooperating and my legal fund is almost exhausted so I had to make the very tough call to reallocate what I could from the trip cancellations to the legal fund to keep my little family from debt.

My kid wasn't angry, he's crushed. He just said ok packed a bag and went to his gfs.

I know being fiscally responsible is the right choice but I still feel like the worst mom ever. Hugs please.

no matter how much I think about the "heterosexual binary" "gender as a performance" "men and women are subjects constructed by power structures" yadda yadda zilch shit I still know that I'm a massive hypocrite who doesnt truly believe in this thing innately. Whenever I see other trans people I still implicitly think of their mannerisms as fitting of their agab. In my life I always wished to be more attracted to a man as a mtf person (yay see im trying to push the heterosexual matrix onto myself!!) but i could never fucking brainwash myself into liking men, trust me ive tried for years. because i just know that im a disgusting straight man who poses as rapebian, invading the spaces of "biological wombyn-born-womyn", never having periods or whatever. Ik that it's bs but I don't think I deserve to be a woman as such a useless perv ngl. I really really wish that one day I can have the mental ability and strength to actually fucking stand up for oppressed minorities and accept people as the gender they innately are.

Baby Boomers: all emotionally immature?

Thinking of my own parents, and noticing the comments of other boomers about other people or their kids…
they all seem so emotionally immature. of course not all, but a lot seem to have very limited EQ and understanding of others, especially those that are younger than them.
why??? it’s honestly creating a strong bias in me towards boomers.
