God, every time I hear about anything Dolly says I want to have her fix me some biscuits with ham and tell me stories.
I post long: but I need to tell this and I hope maybe ya’ll can get some use out of it. If somebody would pull me of gray I would be thankful.
and then, when i started going to therapy, she said, “i hope you don’t talk about me.”
So I asked her about this whole ‘dramatic’ thing, since I don’t really consider myself dramatic. I am enthusiastic, at times, maybe embellish on a funny anecdote - but I don’t exaggerate when it comes to my health or other more serious things. She recalled that between ages 3 and 8 I had a tendency to overreach,…
Awesome little girl. Try your best to make sure she doesn’t lose that confidence. Puberty can be such a bitch.
Probably because he looks past “that,” and she does not.

Yeah, painful. Makes me feel a bit better knowing I'm not the only one, and that other people had parents that didn't match those shiny scripted people we saw on TV.
Wow. I hate him. I hate that worthless piece of shit and I hope your life is full of smiles, if for no other reason than to spite him.
So in Latin America being called gordita is aparently a term of endearment, this is relevant later. I gained 10-15 pounds because of reasons in undergrad and none of my clothes fit me anymore. One time when my mom called me gordita one too many times, I started bawling and said I KNOW I’M FAT. NOTHING FITS ME AND I’M…
I’ll totally come over and break his kneecaps if you want.
starred for the highly satisfying solidarity.
Yay! Happy dance! (About the ladies backing you up, not your mom being such a miserable cow.)
Go those ladies!!!
Your mom thought she was unpopular because of her weight. In reality it was her shit-ass personality.
