  • Yeah! I for one am also sick of being supportive of my partners, next time she tells me about her life experiences or how she had a hard day I’m going to tell her I’m not her therapist and it isn’t my responsibility to take care of her emotions.

    Actually I’ll continue being supportive because I’m a good person but I couldn’t miss the opportunity to make fun of the “woe is me, men want to be treated like humans too” bullshit.

    Do you guys really start convos like “I just watched X doc and I thought it was neat. I was wondering, if it’s not too much of an imposition, may I tell you about it?”

    Honestly I think it’s just a “I don’t vibe with people who need that” sort of thing, I like friends that let me be excited without begging permission, and I would gladly do the same for them.

    Dude ngl so I was accused of mansplaining by an ex while explaining some technical shit I was talking about and I knew she didn’t know, claiming she did in fact know…

    Assume that everyone else she shares their exact knowledge?

    And that’s exactly what I did, upon her request. I stopped explaining technical terms when talking about something assuming she’ll just know what a buffer tube and an H3 weight are. Turns out that made her “feel stupid” which of course wasn’t my intention, I intended to both A) comply with her literal request as per respecting boundaries, and B) hope she’d see just how ineffective of a system that is for communication. Turns out I was the asshole for doing as she asked, who knew. She threatened to shoot me (she wasn’t gonna do shit but still threatening to isn’t exactly “chill”) when we broke up for the crime of checks notes spending my own money legally, so I’m sure I was the problem lol.

    There’s not much of a point to that story really other than I enjoy telling it but I rarely get to since it’s rarely relevant, and to say don’t bother assuming everyone knows things, they might just hate that too lol. Danged if ya do danged if ya don’t, I’m royally danged.


  • I think they were saying that “good relationship with dad” isn’t a prerequisite for “marrying a dad-alike,” that sometimes “bad relationship with dad” also gets “married to dad-alike,” they’re just both bad guys in the latter case.

    Like, a woman who’s dad beat her/mom as a child can grow up to marry a husband who also beats her/their child too, and in that way she has married someone like her dad.

    I don’t think they were claiming that being abusive is good, nor do I think that’s the general consensus on blahaj.
