It's our money, but I don't think it's fair for me to have to pay for something that I don't believe in. I understand that my girlfriend wants to have an abortion and that it's her decision, but I don't agree with it. I believe that every life is precious and that we have a responsibility to protect and nurture it.
Master the art of deflection. Learn how to say “as long as you're happy I'm happy for you”. She hooked up with this guy when he was just 20 so it's highly likely he'll continue to wonder what else is out there for him. But you'll need to just listen and not render comment the next time he cheats/breaks up with her. Be civil to him when you're forced to see him. But also be prepared to talk her through more upheaval in this relationship. He's just not ready to settle down and she doesn't want to recognize that. If she wants to live in a state of denial (until he leaves for good), you may have to play along just to have a relationship with her.
The problem is that I painted him in a good light for too long. Once his cruelty got to be too overt I just felt like a fool for sticking around so long.
I was married to someone like the BiL. His jokes were never really funny and he wanted all eyes on him at all times. These people exist and are nightmares to deal with.
Yeah, I would be extremely suspect as the bf if she refuses to let him drive her home. That's just shady. I'd wonder what she was doing that she doesn't want him to see.
…Noise canceling headphones? Is that some sort of metaphor for me putting my baby in her room, in the crib to play, while we GO OUTSIDE when we have our shit going on? Jesus fuck man, you and everyone thinking I'm exposing my baby to the toxicities. I come to reddit to get this odd my chest, and possibly get advice, but clearly I was mistaken. I'm getting bashed and honestly it's just hysterical at the point ? Fuck reddit, this will be my last comment, and post.
Smh, miserable people TRYING to make others miserable.
Take time to yourself! People sometimes take years just to become ready to date again just from a break-up, let alone the passing of your significant other (I’m sorry for you loss, also).
There’s no set amount of time to grieve and become ready to get back out there. I’d recommend just taking time and channeling into yourself. Learn about yourself again. Learn new things and new hobbies! It’s better to be “overly” ready than not ready. Besides, dating when you’re not really into it is just a waste of your time and somebody else’s.
Perpahs I could ask him to introduce me to her as his gf too..

you really would be surprised how few guys out there think like this. like kudos my dude
But if he cared about you, he would want YOU to have good sex, too!!
There is a reason you for the 20 year age gap….
GET A JIB!!!
Trying to reply to the comment but not seeing it but omg I never thought about him mirroring me!!
You are being used and abused.
Wake up man and end this saga. The sooner the better.

You didn’t know your ID has your birthdate?
So the argument was over his desire to have control over you. You dodged the abuse bullet on this one. Everything he's done is about control.
What does the sister boyfriend being ftm mean? I didn't understand that and he's in that age range

Reading with comprehension is very usefull skill, just saying.
But in your op, you say you cancelled a therapy appointment with your daughter to go hang out with your wife.
No I didn't.

Thank you, this hit home.

Can’t stress it enough when I say move him to a nursing facility. You don’t need to be around this or tolerate it.
