thank you my darlings i have eaten a peetz

I've been thinking about this reply a lot today. What stands out to me about this experience is how awful it feels when it hits you, truly hits you. You've worked hard to be loving and listen and care, and you've still been hurting this person bc they were dishonest with you. Horror show

Thank you <3 <3 <3 <3

To be fair a big part of the debriefing was me asking my 42 y/o ex to learn conflict resolution skills 😂

No matter how much I told them the neglect hurt me and I wanted closeness/honesty, it was like they COULDN'T say their feelings/understand mine. After 3 months of that I gave up (2/2)

We had our first real fight back in Summer and Boyf never recovered. Freaked them out so bad that I was mad at them about something that even after the fight resolved, they withdrew. Stopped telling me about any negative emotions, no effort to spend time together. (1/2)

I like to think it’s emotionally similar to Courage laughing after grievous injury

Idk I feel like I’ve seen somewhere that it’s observable on scans of brain activity? The way autistic brains process sensory input is different

I’m pretty sure coat change (at least in an individual, I don’t think this is the case at the population level) is effected by length of daylight hours? Don’t quote me tho

Idk it’s just like. A doctor saying to someone “well you can’t deal with normal emotions and you’ll never learn so fuck off freak” feels like something a doctor would say to a traumatized person

It feels like a diagnosis for when a doctor doesn’t wanna deal with a Hysterical Woman ™ and I do say this even tho I have been personally victimized by a “bpd” parent

I keep trying to get photos of the girls but this is the only one where either Fio or Jack was actually standing still on the beach. These bitches shrimply love to swim
