1. I so so wanted Scarlet to do well this time. I don't know why, but I have a soft spot for her. Unfortunately it still feels like she is playing a drag queen instead of being it. I know it's in there, she could be incredible, but I feel like she is holding back instead of having fun with it.

  2. Hey there. I know you probably thought your comment got lost in the sea of anger that I have caused, so I apologize for both filling the sea with anger and just being ornery in general. But, because you were more understanding than most, I will take the time to respond to you, and politely at that. You have absolutely deserve that with how kindly you've responded to me.

  3. Thank you for this comment, it made me understand you better (even if it wasn't directed at me). Your first comments really made me angry, but the longer I read the more sad I felt for you. And after reading this it all makes sense.

  4. I feel sorry for you that your life and your inner world is so unpleasant. I really am. But the world doesn't owe you anything. People don't owe you anything. If you can't stand being around people, then don't be around people.

  5. Why don't you just use the microwave like a kettle and boil water in there? When it's boiling you fill your cup. That's what I do when I don't have a kettle.

  6. What delusional woman thinks that she can tell a pregnant woman she will steal her husband, then steal him and think she can be besties with the ex wife. I mean, that's bat crap crazy.

  7. At that point I thought it was something like Tammy wanted absolution from her crappy behaviour and something like OOPs blessing for their marriage.. and then the updates happened. 🤣

  8. My husband was 2,07 at age 15.. the men in his family are all tall, but he still stands out

  9. In my experience, people in the north are taller than in the south of the Netherlands. I’ve lived in Groningen for 15 years, I felt kind of average there (I’m 1.72m) and sometimes even small. Whenever I visited the south of the Netherlands like Noord-Brabant I felt like a giant…

  10. Interesting.. I'm 1,71 (German) and my husband is 2,07 (Dutch, Noord-Brabant). Whenever we visit his family, I'm average at best, but usually I feel rather short when we're in public there.

  11. Oh, a fellow Oberpfälzer! I'm from NEW originally, but live in Franconia now. And I can confirm, I still go to different bakeries for different baked goods..

  12. Filed under: Things that never happened. Do parents give their children cappuccinos these days? Only a small child would be adding a lot of sugar. I pretty much stopped reading there.

  13. Wow, thank you all for your input. My first post on here and had no idea when I got going this morning this would be the response. I think I have read every response here and I am truly appreciative of all of the thoughtful insight. Much of it is hard to read.

  14. He's bullying and gaslighting you, sis. I already wrote that in a separate comment, but his behaviour screams DARVO (deny, attack, reverse victim/offender). He's abusive and you don't seem happy.

  15. Your mom is not responsible for your fiancées insecurities. If she feels outshined by her MIL, she needs to address this is therapy, not expect other people to cater to her.

  16. But why would they do that if they can charge so much more for the individual meal pots?

  17. Yeah, that made no sense. If you find drugs in your kids room, are you supposed to just leave them there?

  18. Okay, then replace it with another legal type of contraband. If you don't allow your child to carry a knife, but you find one in their bedroom, do you just leave it there?

  19. I'm a mother of a 16-year old daughter. When I'm concerned about her health/behaviour etc I talk to her and explain my concerns. I want her to be aware of the dangers, but I don't just forbid things and yank them off her. The older she gets, the more it is my job to guide her while respecting her own agency as well.

  20. Your value isn't defined by your body. You define your value and your body can reflect that.

  21. Losing weight makes you more visible in many ways. Some people get jealous and try to cover it with pity.

  22. I really want to know what country this is …I would lean into her delusions 🤣 Tell her that with your experience living abroad that you are going to apply to the CIA when you graduate college and then smile , say “if you can’t beat em join em” then laugh manically

  23. My guess is Germany. I'm German. We have our own share of crazy here and this behaviour sounds very familiar..

  24. The death of Diana Princess of Wales was unlike any other event. She went from being endless tabloid fodder with every type of speculation about her love life to tragic English Rose overnight. The Sunday she died and the following week were the most surreal of my life. And I didn't even live in England.

  25. I'm German, I was 15 when she died. I remember the otherwise unempathetic school bully crying that day. It really was surreal.

  26. Which is kind of fucked up to think about… it’s possible that a psychic telling someone they’re going to drown means that person never learns how to swim or never gets comfortable in water… leading them to drown if they ever accidentally fall in.

  27. Wait, he didn't even know you sold the house? Do you ever talk to him? Do you even like your son? The fact that he lived with his father doesn't mean you stop being his mom. He may have made bad choices, but that's his right as a kid. You don't just cut them out of your life and move on. YTA

  28. People don't just get bullied out of nowhere. I don't mean they deserve it, but that bullies quickly sense or find out who has backup and who doesn't.

  29. I was bullied heavily from the first day I got into a new class. My parents didn't care. Since I had just moved there I didn't have any friends and nobody wanted to associate with me and become a target as well. It was a period that traumatized me a lot.

  30. I sure was, but it did come out of nowhere. I grew up with my grandparents and when they got too old I had to move in with my mother and stepfather and change schools for that. It did come out of nowhere.

  31. It seems like Cam enjoys to put Ella under pressure, only to prove that she has more control over her than you. If Ella wants to play that game, let her.

  32. I fully agree and that’s sort of the point of the post. At one point or another (when healthy) we are all told our body is the “ideal” while at other times we are told they are “built like shit” as someone here said to me.

  33. Oh, I didn't take it as you diminishing the struggles of others. Not at all! I'm sorry if it came across like that. I just wanted to share my experiences and highlight that people can always find things that are "wrong" if they choose to focus on the wrong things. Nobody is perfect and that's such a relief.

  34. I’m so grateful for your response and perspective. You are absolutely right, perfection doesn’t exist, and if it did, I wouldn’t want it anyway. I just want a future for my daughter where she can feel that she is worthy and beautiful regardless of her body shape or other trivial factor. It’s just a small soap box, but the conversations are important to shift these paradigms.

  35. Oh, I totally agree! My daughter is 16 now and I'm so happy to see her having a more realistic and relaxed perspective regarding her body and bodily autonomy. I'm so proud of her and also proud of myself that I was able to break the cicle of ED, body dismorphia and destructive influences for her.

  36. It could also be anything from a thyroid issue, something wrong with his metabolism to ADHD/executive disfunction. Many conditions make it hard to function properly and are often misinterpreted as lazyness. He should definitely get checked out.

  37. It's why I like my flair. It either causes a visceral reaction in those who do know and reels in the poor souls who ask
