Oh, I really feel this. Thank you for answering me. I’m not in any way suggesting a diagnosis for you, but a few years ago I was doing research for a project and read about borderline personality disorder and how the best treatment for it was CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) or DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy)…
What sort of bad stuff? I’m trying to imagine the range between breaking stuff, being emotionally abusive, driving into traffic. Are you bad to yourself or others? Not judging, just wondering if you’ve ever been told what sort of injury you might have received.
I’m glad she got to have those last months, but I could almost feel her panic in your description. It must have been hard to watch.
I’m always surprised when someone says all men cheat, because my husband is genuinely incapable of it, as were his father and grandfather. I’m not naive; I’m 52 years old and associate with all manner of people, including couples — gay and straight — in open relationships or with baroque deals between them. But I…
Mine does not, and does not allow the exchange of money in the meetinghouse.
If you haven’t given lots of listening time to Black Messiah, whoo lawd is it good, too.
That cat died immediately after Kim gave it to an assistant, as I recall.
Amen. When I first saw the Teigen article, I remembered all the things my husband saw during pregnancy and childbirth. It was like a war zone.
Yeah, because someone older than you who has been making a living as a writer for a couple decades doesn’t understand how typing works, and how many places it can be done. There’s a reason you’re treated with scorn.
This story gets sadder and SADDER.

What confuses me is that clearly she hasn’t had her own teeth for decades — those were veneers, meaning only the little stumps they attached to were left of her teeth. What did she shear off? What does “shear” mean in this context? Were they woolen, like after I eat spinach?
Man, that commenter was pulling some psycho nonsense. It wasn’t even good trolling.
I’m 5'8" and in high school my boyfriend was 6'6". Everyone who followed was at least six feet tall, but I married a man who is 5'6" and is by far the hottest man I’ve ever met. Also the kindest and hardworking and most honorable. No way would I have turned him down because I’m taller.
I’m so glad you have that screen name, because I feared my family and I were the only people keeping the phrase going. (We text it to each other at least once a week, because there’s plenty going on in the world that deserves it.)
Tiger’s life began spiraling out of control long before 2009, when he was doing the things that were revealed when Elin left him. I know it would be awful to have your private life laid bare that way, but the things he’d been doing (and for years, with many people aware of them) were the problem, not the revelation of…
