This reminds me of the people who think I can exercise my CP away. Granted, exercise can improve the symptoms, but I will always have my CP, but some people simply do not want to hear that you can’t exercise your physical disability away.

You have realize that those of us who are elderly and have decades of experience are not worth anything anymore, even if we kept up with new tech, software, ect. Doesn’t matter that we can code, build computers, and so on, simply our age makes us worthless. Same with all those fired FBI personnel.

So, he apologized to your husband, and not you? Still avoiding the person he wronged, even when he admitted he was wrong. Coward!

So, is PIP like SSDI here in the US, or more like SSI? But whichever one it is, tell them to get their greedy hands off PIP.

BTW, here is a better erosion of his comment, showing more respect and less bitterness: “Sometimes it feels like people choose partners who hurt them-emotionally or even physically-over someone who would treat them with real love and respect. It’s hard to watch when all you want is to give….1/2

One of the worst parts of his word salad is that he sees relationships as transactional, which is why he isn’t the nice guy he thinks he is. He has no self-awareness, and he blames women for his own shortcomings, and disrespects women by calling them “females”.

I understand the idea that I might initially be seen as a potential aggressor, but due to my disability, you’d easily kick my ass if I were stupid enough to be aggressive. Also, I value empathy and compassion, not strength and dominance.

Sadly, even being disabled, I may have three advantages that help he get the care I need, White, Male, and Military association. It shouldn’t be that way, because everyone should get the care they need, and its sad that I have advantages that other people don’t.
