Or he dislikes your body wash a lot.

This is why despite not theoretically having a problem with the idea of using my husband’s soap, I’m definitely not using his Irish Spring neon green bar.

Yeah Mrs. C convinced me to stop using so-and-so-for-men products and I don’t ever want to go back. For body wash and shampoo I just use normal Dove moisturizing. No frills, smells like nothing, feels way better. She uses fancier shampoo but we share the body wash. She has also gotten me hooked on fancy face wash,…

There’s a tumblr post that is like

He’s not using it to moisturize, though.

yes, because i only date men who smell like hickory smoke and chainsaw fumes

I don’t know. I can understand him saying “kill yourself” in a moment of anger and pain. I understand because my mother, too, was emotionally troubled. I was the youngest (by 17 years) in my family. My older siblings dealt with more bad behavior from our mother than I did - she wd have fits of throwing herself on a…

Ya know what? Fuck her. She would have made it easier on her family if she did shoot herself and nobody else, least of all her fucking children.

I suspect this woman has been holding her family hostage in some form or another for many years. I read desperation, not arrogance in his words.

Yeah, like in general that is an awful thing to say to anyone, but in the context of someone threatening to kill you and your children out of spite, I can’t fault him. Honestly, isn’t it what we all think about people who commit murder suicides? Why couldn’t they just kill themselves? I realize she probably didn’t…

And considering she had shown signs of mental instability before—which leads me to wonder why he didn’t have her committed or at least try—perhaps he was tired of dealing with her bullshit.

Yeah, fuck the guy whose wife murdered his children just to spite him. He’s probably an asshole and not deserving at all of any sympathy.

I think she made life hell for that family. She probably should of listened to his advice, that sounds so heartless but what she did was evil, she wanted to punish her husband by killing THEIR kids, she did this on his birthday, the same week her daughter was going to get married. There's something so screwed up about…

Exactly. If I’m ever the victim of a crime / in some other scary and volatile situation, I will not be the one to escalate it by pulling a gun. And I'm ok with that.

I’m trying really hard to not judge too hard but it seems like there were many people in these girls’ lives that failed them entirely.

I have this deep seeded feeling that not matter how awful the things said, the lack of a gun would have meant everyone got out alive....

Of course it does. I didn’t say it doesn’t. But to be the spouse of a mentally unstable person holding a gun and make the choice to taunt, rather than calm, them is freaking stupid. Of course it pales in comparison, and of course it isn’t illegal. That doesn’t mean he isn’t a moron and probably an asshole.

I dunno. Hard to blame the guy for a comment he made when she pulled a gun on him.

Meh. Saying something ugly and regrettable in the heat of the moment kind of pales in comparison to murdering your children.

“Christy was toxic for the family. She was mentally unstable.”
