I see what you're saying. Though I've got to say, a lot more than you'd expect can be learned, when it comes to social behaviour. Not all of it, definitely not, but I've basically had to teach myself everything from scratch when I was 12 or so and since a year or two, I'm able to more or less "pass for a normal…

"If you don't only have sex with people I think it's ok you have sex with, then you clearly have no moral sexual boundaries and would be just as likely to have sex with a child or an animal as you are to have sex with anyone else."

Don't worry, in a few years he'll be living in the hills, only coming down into civilization to steal a chicken or two. And the locals will tell stories to their children of the crazy wild old man who will steal them away to HateLand if they don't eat their vegetables.

I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU!!!! If I didn't have to run to a confirmation lunch I'd write more!!!!!

I'm past randomly sobbing. Thank god. Now my sadness is just this thing I drag with me everywhere. That can be pretty awkward too.

Thank you friend. Suffering makes you wise and witty and interesting. Eventually. Once you stop being a boring, miserable mess.

It's really hard to get your brain out of crisis mode, especially if you've been stressed for a while. You aren't doing anything wrong, you're not ungrateful. The shelter didn't burn down because you needed a "you" day.

Also: this probably sounds super lame but is a thing that helps me; write her a letter, write down everything you feel, and all the questions you wanna ask, and then either toss it or show it to a best friend you can trust with your life, but never ever show it to her.

I recently went through something similar and the reasons my ex partner of 12 years gave were also incredibly shitty and full of holes in logic. Nothing he said made any sense at all, and everything totally contradicted with other things he did or said which I took to be truthful. I would wholeheartedly recommend…

Thank you! The more people who know, the more likely it is that people will donate. No donation is too small but spreading the word is REALLY important in this crowdsourcing/fundraising world. I could spend all day searching "cat cancer" or "pet cancer" on twitter and instagram and interacting with people personally…

I feel you, I've been there. Be easy on yourself and allow yourself to feel all those emotions on the spectrum, including the lows. Congratulations on recognizing that you're making a lot of progress, I'd recommend making a list of everything you've accomplished and just reveling in that fact. Tomorrow is a new day!

For those able or interested, May is Pet Cancer Awareness month. Petco and Blue Buffalo are using it to raise money for research. I'm having to use it to raise money for my cat Madison.

Don't punish yourself for being human. That is seriously, SERIOUSLY, your brain terrorizing you. I know it is hard to get perspective when you are in the well of sadness and can't see the sunlight.

I have to agree with other commenters: let this one go. Either she is indeed rationalizing her decision, and anything you say to contradict that will just be met with further attempts at rationalization on her part, or she truly saw things that differently than you, in which case you two aren't on the same wavelength…

I GOT A FUCKING JOB THIS WEEK. I've been out of work for a fucking YEAR! I'm so happy right now you guys!!!!!

I had a yard sale today and was nervous about it. First of all, I live alone, have no friends here (due to recently relocating), and no family, so basically no help. I've been working all week organizing and pricing things. Then I went to hang signs today and moved all the stuff (furniture included) into the front…

I got a puppy.... I GOT A PUPPY! *happy dance*

Semi off topic, but Barbara Corcoran is my best male friend's aunt. She's a fiercely intelligent, nice, well spoken, and funny lady.
