I sell swimwear for a living, if you want to get at those low cut swimsuits and want to avoide slippage: allow me to introduce LENNY!!!

You sound a lot like me.

Thanks! And I know that it will be great when everything is said and done. This is actually my second marriage (I'm not that great at picking them). I think that the hardest part is knowing when something can be saved vs. when it isn't worth the effort of saving.

Uuuuugggggh with the gaslighting. I was always the crazy person. Always. Even when he stayed out late, alone with another woman, drinking until 4am, never answering the 2 texts and 1 phone call from his wife... I was the one being embarrassing and he "didn't know how much longer" he could deal with someone who didn't "…

Were we in a relationship with the same person? I'm glad I can commiserate with people in this thread. My ex made it seem like I was being completely unreasonable for being upset with the way he treated me (which was horribly) when I got a severe flu on a trip to visit him.

OH MY GOD my ex was the same way! He was one of those people blessed with a strong immune system and he almost never got sick... and while I was by no means sick all the time (I get about one cold per year), every time I'd get a cold he would get this attitude with me as if I had somehow been irresponsible and that it…

My husband tends to be the same way; when he gets sick the world is ending but when I get sick I'm still expected to cook, do laundry, take care of the boy, and anything else that needs to be done around the house. It's one of the many factors I'm leaving him.

Whew, christ— congratulations on escaping THAT. Bullet dodged!

Jesus god. Glad you got away from that. I'm sorry that happened to you, and I'm glad you're okay now.

My ex was like this too. He seemed to believe that people who got colds or the flu were somehow 'weak'. So you can imagine how my bouts with depression went over with him.

It was really awful.

the one and only MR. Grey

She is totally referring to the news that Benicio Del Torro is only 48. Take heart. Tell us more about Harry and his future bride.

Thin Mints are gross.

OMG I hate that. I literally study the subway floor if I don't have a book in front of me to avoid this exact thing. "OMG! She looked at me! Does she want my penis? Maybe she wants my penis. I should go over there and offer my penis, just to be sure."

"I am not now to learn,'' replied Mr. Collins, with a formal wave of the hand, "that it is usual with young ladies to reject the addresses of the man whom they secretly mean to accept, when he first applies for their favour; and that sometimes the refusal is repeated a second or even a third time. I am therefore by…

A prude in the streets, a freak in the tweets.

Maddie. Your voice. I want you to narrate my life please.

HER STOMACH LOOKS LIKE MINE!!!! HER THIGHS LOOK LIKE MINE!

The best part of Shades of Grey coming out is that it's reminding me to go watch Secretary again.
