((((((((LucyInTheSky))))))))))......please just take in all of the love, kindess and support that so many here have given you......and blow off the few negative people who like to kwap on anything even remotely positive this place has to offer. 

I'm glad that we were here when you needed a little human kindness and understanding. And I'm glad it seems to have helped a bit.

(((((Emma))))) ❤️ thank you and others for sharing under your usual nic. I think the thread was helpful to many and I'm sorry people can't see the point I was trying to make here about the uneven applying of Standards. I think the real problem is the posters that thought the story was a fake, that's disrespectful.  It is what it is I guess.

😕

The only thing I'm seeing is someone who would rather be "right" than show a little compassin and understanding to someone who is obviously in pain. 

---

Im not trying to be right just merely almost completely responding to those who address me or who bring up what I posted, but clearly that's only ok if it's all in agreement with the majority.  If posters don't agree I'm not sure why THEY don't let it go and ignore my comments.

Miss you too Emma!  I always enjoyed posting with you and several others.  Try to stop by and say hi every and then.  

Jan 6th? For how long? My heater acted up again and I thought about Mercury being a pain in the toosh.

RonnieGal, let it go. This thread has helped many and to nitpick about her nic is not necessary. It's not helping anyone. We see what you are saying, but we are choosing to support the OP instead of pointing a finger at her. If you feel this is something that still needs to be debated, can you start a separate thread so those that want to chat with the Op and others can do so without fear of the thread being closed because of your posts? 

Emma, is mercury in retrograde yet?

hugs and prayers to all who've been in relationships like the OP.

lol!  Hi Makeup Addict!  I really miss you!  And.......we are in the "shadow phase" right now. It goes retrograde on January 6th......so fasten your seat belt!

I miss her too Emma.

Makeup Addict, still thinking of Gracie and praying.❤️

@ronnieGal Thanks. Gracie is snoozing in her doggie bed. Lucy is sleeping on the couch. She has her good days and bad days. Today was a good day. 🙂

This is going to be one heck of a vent piece, so if that's not something you're interested in listening to (and I certainly don't blame you), this is your warning to head for the hills now.  I don't have anyone in my personal life I feel comfortable speaking with about this right now. 

My father is a horrible, detestable human being.  He's abused my family for as many years as I can remember... verbally (his favorite pastime) and physically.  He goes from a calm, lucid person to an unimaginable, crazed maniac in seconds.  I believe that's the true mark of someone who's abusive... that push and pull, that bait and switch.  I wish I could attribute his behavior to aging or even senility (he's sharp as a tack).  But he's always been this way, though I believe it's worsening when it should be improving at this point in his life. 

Today, I reached a breaking point and unloaded every unconscionable word I've ever wanted to say to him.  I was in an uncontrollable rage.  And despite the way I've (we've) been treated by him since I was a child, that type of rage is not in my nature.  So you know I must have really lost it.  I honestly thought it was going to come to blows.  It might still.  My poor mother has breast cancer and is very sick.  Do you think that's curbing his deplorable, shameful behavior even in the slightest?  Not one bit.  He upsets my mother with the way he treats us, and then blames us for the stress that he believes has caused her cancer.  He, of course, is the only source of stress that ever befell this family.

In case you're wondering, yes, I'm a long-time regular poster.  But I just couldn't bear to start this thread under my real nick.  For this duplicity, I apologize.  But I'm embarrassed that this has become our family.  I feel guilt, anger, self-hatred, confusion, unbearable anxiety.  I never imagined in my worst nightmare that this is how we would all end up, as time continues to slip away.  How heartbreaking! 

My dear, fellow posters... I need your support.  What a way to start the new year...

@LucyInTheSky I SHOULDVE said this first and I did say elsewhere I do believe you're story and your hurt is real and I'm very very sorry and also sorry for what others shared and I hope it helped for everybody to read and post.  I said this elsewhere and was thinking I said it here before asking about Standards and now I realize I was amiss so my apology, hope you made a cy of the thread so you can have encouraging words to read later even if you decided to close it. Prayers and good wishes to you and everybody, genuinely.❤️
