This $1.2m figure is only what's going through the probate courts, guys. My guess is that there were already substantial trusts set up for Ariane, probably at the time of her birth, and those aren't declared on the public record like probate assets. 

This was my first thought. I imagine quite a bit is socked into trusts for Ariane already. He wasn't stupid. 

Damn, I’ve eaten at Calhoun’s on the river and the one near West Towne many times and it’s always been casual. Maybe they were stricter 25 years ago? Regardless, they were dicks and I’m glad you ended up with a wonderful memory to replace their rudeness.

It seems that he has a very contentious relationship with Sophie, and the baby’s paternity wasn’t 100% confirmed until March although he did see the kid at Christmas (and bought him clothing that was all too small). At least that's what I've gleaned from it all.

My husband was dx'd with borderline about seven years ago. I co-sign this. 

They were replying to a comment that said, “BPD has nothing to do with mania and depression.” This is a patently untrue statement, hence the stats the respondent provided. Also, in the context of this thread, BPD is borderline personality disorder, not bipolar disorder.

I’m glad your mom is doing better after a proper diagnosis and I hope you’re hanging in there in other ways for now. It helps to have a name to it, then you know what to expect and how to deal with it.

It would be so much easier if all of the conditions fit neatly into their own hatboxes, right? No overlap, no blurry lines, just “you do this, so that means you have that.” I was unaware that so many people seem to think that mania is solely associated with bipolar; even an otherwise neurotypical person can experience…

No, you’re a person WITH autism, not autistic. 🤷🙄🙄

Hey, fuck you. My husband's borderline. I've been with him for 11 years. I know what I'm talking about.

My husband is borderline. I’ve been with him for 11 years. Yes, euphoria/mania can be part of the disease cycle, especially when they come off of their meds; borderline and bipolar share a lot of features, that's why they're so frequently misdiagnosed as one another. And it’s an amazing mania (unless you know what’s…

I was surprised to come back to rude replies. I've been with my husband for 11 years and he was diagnosed with borderline about 7 years ago. I live it. Even his doctors describe those "up" episodes as mania. 🤷 It's the best word to describe it, and BPD shares a lot of features with bipolar - they're frequently…

I suppose I’m using the term in the wrong way, then. My husband is borderline and definitely goes through phases where he bounces around in euphoria, especially if he’s trying to avoid processing something emotionally. Like he lost a job and was just trying to outrun it. I call it mania because that’s what it feels…

I hope that when Pete falls out of his current mania, she’s not completely freaked out. It can make things so much worse if she immediately drops him because the fun, energetic, funny guy is suddenly depressed and miserable, threatening to hurt himself to stop the pain.

At the same time, NPH is very much brands himself as The Theatre Person™ -, with a specialty in Musical Theatre© - and Rachel Bloom stars in the biggest musical TV show of the last several years. Like it’s a massive award-winnimg critical darling, and I don’t even think it was Rachel’s first year backstage/red carpet…

Oh Christ

Holy shit, I hadn’t heard of that. 😬😬😬

As has been pointed out again (and again and again) in this thread, that ain’t KVD. That’s trashtastic KVD-wannabe Michelle McGee.

Keri in the Mary Kay look is 3000% giving me Lady Mary from Good Behavior vibes in her blonde conwoman get-up.

My husband once took Ambien and he was bad about taking it, then staying up to play video games. Usually the worst that would happen is he’d raid the refrigerator or drink a two-liter of Mountain Dew. He once decided to drive to a local game store at 2 AM to buy Call of Duty with his son in the car and wrecked. He…
