Bradley Scott2 said:Does my whole post—and honestly, just my general way of writing about stuff—come across like I’m trying to be offensive?
Could we try to be a little more objective?
Maybe someone could keep a closer eye on what people are actually posting here. It would be great if we could just ban and delete those trolls who do nothing but insult others all day.
I didn't say "you're a crazy idiot"—that would have been an actual insult.
I wrote that... Probably. She’s dealing with some serious psychological issues. If I had just told her that... Probably. My partner has diabetes, so I suggested she spend some time looking things up online to get a better handle on the symptoms and how it all manifests. Would that be considered an insult?From a medical standpoint, a disorder or illness is just that—a diagnosis. There’s really no reason to label someone based on their condition.
I suggested she look into that disorder and walked her through how it’s been affecting things between her and her husband.
Honestly, she really laid it all out there—it’s pretty clear how much that disorder defines her perspective. Take a look at her posts, and maybe do a quick search on the Democratic Party.
Honestly, things could be even worse—there are definitely some sociopathic traits showing through.
I was being intentionally a bit more blunt just to see how she’d react—people with BPD tend to be really sensitive to personal criticism.
It’s all about the fact that she could actually get custody of her kids tomorrow. Do you guys realize how much that matters? Those kids are going to have a rough time, constantly being psychologically worn down by their mother.
Am I sure I’m not a neuropsychiatrist? That was my title back when I was still in school.
If the post were still up, anyone—even Tonkica—could have used it to challenge my assumptions or back them up. She could have reached out for help and explained her behavior to her family and husband.
Well, I guess I'll just leave that up to whoever decided to delete my post.
Please give me an answer.
Are you sure I'm not a specialist neuropsychiatrist? (That was my title back when I was in school).

Your husband has a point.
It’s very possible you’re dealing with BPD (borderline personality disorder). Your behavior sounds like a textbook case of it.
What did your doctor say? Even they can't give a clear diagnosis if you aren't being honest or if you're trying to manipulate the situation.
Try Googling BPD; there's even a good resource called "Stop Walking on Eggshells."I want to, I just don't know how to stop everything from driving me crazy! He’s become so cold and distant. He wasn't like this before; he used to hold me so close, and I know I'm the one who messed this up.
He hasn't changed; you have.
He’s just realized that the sweet, kind person he first met isn't there anymore. Now, you're just someone bitter who constantly picks at him, blames him, breaks things, and screams...I know all of that! I want to fix things, but he just won't go back to how he used to be. His distance drives me insane—it's like he's totally shut down and guarded. I desperately wanted to get us back to how we were, but he won't budge, even though he said he wanted to forgive me and move past everything!
He doesn't need to "fix" himself to be who he was before.
You've pushed him so far that withdrawing and distancing himself is his only way to protect himself from your outbursts and yelling. He's just reached his limit.I know it isn't healthy for me to be this angry and resentful toward him, but I really am. I can't honestly say he's a bad person, but his coldness and the way he's checking out is just driving me mad!
Stop focusing on your husband and what he "should" be doing. That chapter is closed. You essentially killed the relationship with how you acted. It wasn't even about the infidelity; it was the overall pattern of your behavior.
Focus on yourself and your own issues now. If you can't do it for yourself, do it for your kids.

amberdriver17 said:Saying "you're acting stupid" is an insult, so your "if" regarding whether you insulted me is pointless.
Is it really that hard to just admit that this way of communicating doesn't belong on this forum?
frozenowl3 said:"You're just that annoying one from NATO," they say—even though I'm constantly fighting for gay rights on a forum that gets suppressed all the time by the FBI. It felt insulting, and honestly, it's just an invitation to start a fight. That kind of insult should get you banned. Maybe I am being a bit much for you because I keep pushing back when you don't get it, but an insult is an insult. There isn't much else I can say about it.

Karen Johnson39 said:Is it better to take Broadway along the tram tracks or stick to the Gjuro Deželić approach?
quietskipper17 said:Thirty minutes of solid riding...
The best way to go is taking Broadway toward the turnoff—just pass Bill’s on the right and take the left onto Filipovic. Go straight through the Austrian Square all the way down Deželić. You'll pass by the law school near Masaryk and Tesla. In my opinion, that’s the smoothest route if you want to avoid heavy traffic. I definitely wouldn't recommend riding along the tram tracks on Broadway during rush hour. 😉

Taylor Morales31 said:Where did it go?
rowdyraven13 said:Besides, this country didn't exactly elect Johnson (and honestly, looking at his track record, I doubt he’d ever be elected to Congress on his own). His party—or rather, the coalition that won the election—just appointed him. Let's be real: they didn't win because people love them; they won because everyone wanted the previous administration out.
placidfalcon9 said:Most people just want to settle things under the table. They’ll hunt down some guy they know, pay him cash, and think they're being clever by saving a few bucks.
But let’s be honest—dealing with that crowd is a massive headache. You spend all this time haggling, hunting for parts, and playing detective, all while convincing yourself you actually saved money. It's a joke.
Then the insurance adjuster shows up. "Good morning, how should we handle the repairs?" they ask. And you've got two choices: go with the authorized shop and pay the premium, or take the cash and try to fix it yourself with whatever scraps you can find.
