Mother wants to legally force me to live with her even though I am 39.
So my mother (60) has always had a flair for dramatics and will convince herself of things that are just not true, and of course her brothers (my uncles) think it’s hilarious and will get her worked up even more, while making fun of her for being so gullible behind her back. I cut her out of my life 4 years ago. We are in Michigan. Someone I trust in the family came to me with concerns that my mother may lie to try to get conservatorship over me.
Here is what I know. Her current belief is that I am an unemployed alcoholic living in my car and being taken advantage of by evil men from the political party that she hates. This is not true. I have a place, pay my bills and had a full-time job last time we spoke. I did leave that job but I also returned to school full time on GI Bill, which includes a stipend for living expenses, and found a sweet part-time job, in an air conditioned office, on campus. As far as I know she has no idea I am back in school and I haven’t told anyone in my family, even the ones I trust, what is going on in my life.
Problem is that she lost her job of over 20 years during a mass lay off sometime since we last spoke. These new coworkers haven’t known her long enough to recognize how she doesn’t keep her stories straight or how she flip-flops things around. Basically she has led everyone she works with to believe I am only in my early-mid 20’s and haven’t quite finished my “teenage rebellion phase”, and she is a good mommy who just wants to save her baby from the evil political party.
They have all been “helping her with “research””, and believe because I have a disability rating from the VA, it means I am mentally incompetent. It does not at all mean that. Now I am positive that none of them actually understand how a VA disability rating actually works, my mother likely lied to them about it. Her new friends believe she can have me declared incompetent, force me to live with her for monitoring, and finally take control of my finances thus getting control of my disability payments. I have an 80 rating which is currently just under $2000 a month.
My concern isn’t that my mother could prove I am incompetent but it’s that she could use court proceedings to get a hold of my address, school, or work place. I guess my question is about rules of discovery when it comes to conservatorship cases. Can my mother or any lawyer willing to take her case on actually get ahold of my personal info I don’t want her to have?
If I provide courts with documents proving my competence and ability to care for myself, do I have the right to ask the court to seal or redact any information or documents with info I don’t want her getting? She sabotaged me going to college around 20 years ago and I don’t want to go through that again. I am assuming that the first person I would ever have to deal with would be a social worker, and I want to know if I have any legal recourse to prevent the social worker from sharing my info with my mother?

See if your college has some kind of free legal aid service they can direct you to, and explain this to them. They might be able to point you in the direction to get low cost or free legal services so an attorney can send your mother a cease and desist letter along with filing for a restraining order in such a manner as to not disclose your current whereabouts.
They might also have other ideas that will curtail any attempt by her to try to put a conservatorship in place.

Not a lawyer, but they pay me a shit ton of money to handle stuff like this as a private investigator. Here's my take.
Yes. Her lawyer will hire an investigator to find all of your information. They will pay online databrokers for your file and they will get WAY more than your address. (Everything. They will get everything. If you fucked up and said that thought you didn't want people knowing about, they will find that out.)
Any of that information that can then be found on Google is a public record since it's already on the public Internet. Your address is almost certainly among that data.
No court can sanction public information. Even if they could, the internet is forever and it's already out there.
So, bad news there. The good news is that you're a grown ass woman and the courts are not going to give her a conservatorship just because you have PTSD. You are in no danger of anything other than your mom showing up on your doorstep unannounced.

I tried to update the original post and couldn’t, and the update comment I left got buried at the bottom.
Backstory: Mother wanted me declared incompetent to gain control of me and my veteran disability payments.
So I talked with another family member who confirmed what the first said. Everyone is angry because I wasn’t suppose to find out what happened because “they were handling it”. I refused to tell who told me, which is causing more anger but whatever. So this situation had resolved itself last week. My mother was talking a big game about how she was calling lawyers and Adult Protective Services. After a few days she started trashing on all lawyers and saying that APS was wasting taxpayer dollars.
Apparently she has forgotten all about this whole mess. Her job got a new summer internet and my mother is obsessed. Every conversation anyone has with her is about this guy. My poor grandma has to have no less than a one hour conversation with my mother everyday about this guy. The guy comes from a lot of money, which in the end was what I think she wanted with me. This guy just turned 20 and my mother is 60.

That sounds like a win for now. Most likely, APS "laughed" her out of the room. I would avoid contact since she sounds Manic, going from one scheme or idea to another.

If I had a nickel for everytime I heard of someone's mom trying to force their 100% VA disabled veteran son or daughter to live with them by declaring them incompetent for self care, I'd have about 25 to 30 cents. It's just weird that it's happened that many times, and it's sad. Stay away from her, and thank you for your service!

TLDR of my previous post was that my mother wanted to have me declared incompetent so she could get control of my veteran disability payments and force me to come live with her. I went no contact like 4 years ago. Her plan was to make up wild stories about me and it didn’t go her way. Now she is obsessed with this new intern at her job that comes from money, and seems to have forgotten all about her plan.
I was able to squeeze in meeting with the social worker who works at my VA clinic. I gave her the run down and even showed her my two previous posts. She thought it was kinda funny. She informed me that if a state SW were to be informed of a veteran in a need they would reach out to the VA and she would likely be a first point of contact.
She said that no one from the county or state has contacted her about me yet, but she would make a note. Apparently, the whole Britney Spears conservatorship has made a lot of people think it’s super easy to get conservatorships. She said some people think they will get paid a lot of money to do it. Her best guess is that if my mother did call, it was explained to her how complex the process is and that I would be guided to the VA to receive treatment first, before declaring me incompetent. She did agree with many of the comments that said my mother could find me pretty easily if she really wanted to.
The SW use to work at the state office and while she didn’t work at adult protective services but she had friends and coworkers who did. Money seemed to her to be a really big factor in how hard people fought to get conservatorship. She was surprisingly compassionate towards my mother and said sometimes parents just get worried and worry makes people do stupid things. She said some parents have a hard time adjusting to their children becoming adults and moving out.
Sometimes it’s because they are losing child support, or they’re losing the person who did all the chores, or because they just don’t want to face reality that their baby grew up. And these parents will lash out at the world instead of accepting the truth. She told me about a case a friend of hers had where the parents of an adult woman who had moved out couldn’t face reality. Her parents had been relying on her to do all the housework and raise her brothers. With her gone, everything fell apart at home.
These parents blamed their daughter who had moved out instead of taking responsibility for their own lives Her friend was so stressed by the case because she got yelled at by the parents almost daily about how the state needed to force their daughter to move back in with them. They never got their wish and almost lost their other kids. A grandparent found out what was happening and stepped up to set the parents straight.
Someone had messaged me saying my post was blowing up on social media and I went looking for it and couldn’t find it. They pointed out my family could see it, but I’ve decided I don’t care if they do.
So basically, if my mother really wants to find me she can, but the conservatorship isn’t that easy to get, and I know my mother well enough to know she doesn’t have the patience, or money needed to pursue this anymore. Also there seems to be a lot of rules surrounding conservatorship that I don’t think my mother would have liked following. So I should be good for a while.

You should still remain in No Contact with your mom. This will still make it difficult to gain conservatorship over you. I also don't think the VA hospital will pronounce you incompetent at all unless you lost limbs or went into a vegetative state from a concussive blast, in addition 100% Disabled ≠ Incompetent to manage youre own life. Hopefully, the VA will become an advocacy group for you, im also pretty sure the VA offers lawyers to their veterans. You can ask about that if your mom steps out of line.

OOP: I just checked and they don’t. But, silly me forgot, the VA clinic in my city has a social worker on site. I used her once for a medical power of attorney. But I bet she could either help me herself or get me to the right resource.

OOP: How likely are lawyers and private investigators to take on someone without the ability to pay. Do they have the ability to check credit scores. My mother is terrible with money. My brother confessed to me that she “sold the house” she bought with her third husband a little while after their divorce. By brother insinuated that she was in a bad way with money. I know that when I was 20 and she was 40, I had a better credit score than her. I went to buy a used car and she said she would have to co-sign cuz I was too young to have a good credit score. Turned out I got a better rate without her co-signing. Makes me wonder how bad someone’s credit has to be that you are detrimental to a loan as a co-signer.

2024.05.29 08:01 CurlyGirlyPeace I really need help deciding where to stay in Los Angeles.
Hey all! I am in need of some recommendations! I’m a middle aged mom who’s never been to California before and who lives across the country and nowhere near the ocean, who will be flying into LAX and staying in Los Angeles by myself end of June into July. It’ll be 10ish days total. I just need to be in the general area to support one of my kids. I can literally stay anywhere in the greater Los Angeles area. I’m looking forward to people watching, staring at the ocean from the beach or my room (I dream of a balcony), eating yummy food, sleeping and reading. I don’t have a long list of specific tourist stuff to check off a list. I’m planning to find good, comfortable, safe and ideally lovely hotels and then figure out what I want to do that’s near where I’m staying. I just want to decompress.
My request is that I need suggestions for where I should stay for the first 4 nights of my trip. For the last part of my trip I have used all our points to stay at Oceana in Santa Monica. My spouse is Diamond level thanks to work travel. I’m trying to decide where to stay that won’t break the bank as ill be paying for the first few nights. This will be the end of June into July, before the holiday. I’m not renting a car. I’ll need to walk, Uber, hotel transport, or public transit to get to places of interest or restaurants. I’d love a hotel that is nearish the ocean but also close walking distance to coffee shops or restaurants. I’d be ok being more “in the city” if it’s a safe area for a woman to walk alone during the day. Nightlife and shopping I sn’t my vibe, I’ll be sleeping or tucked in bed reading by nightfall. I see The Cameo Beverly Hills has a good rate plus $100 daily credit I could use in the restaurant. Is that a hotel that’s walkable? I’ve also been looking at the Marina Del Rey hotels, specifically the Jamaica Bay and Hilton Garden Inn. People have warned me about the heat in LA this time of year and being near the coast seems smart to stay cooler, but I’m also spending half my time at Oceana. It would maybe be fun to do the “city” experience and the “ocean” experience with hotels? There’s just too many options! Any suggestions or recommendations would be so helpful! Even places I didn’t mention, I’m totally open to any input.

2024.05.29 07:56 hobbiton-traveller Car Rental with < 1 year experience
Hello!
Was wondering where one might be able to find rental cars if the driver had only gotten a license this year. Tried most international companies like Hertz, Europcar, Avis, Sixt or localrent,com but seems cannot.
Planning to drive to Gergeti Trinity Church and perhaps Telavi wine town (hopefully after that into Armenia and drop off there as well). Checked out some of the earlier posts and will note to drive slower in town because of the unpredictability :)

Look no further than our roundup of top-of-the-line 40 mph electric scooters! In this article, we've compiled a list of the fastest, most reliable, and best-equipped electric scooters that will turn heads as you cruise through the city with ease. From impressive speed and power to state-of-the-art safety features, these electric scooters are the perfect blend of performance and practicality. So, buckle up for a thrilling ride as we explore the world of high-speed electric scooters! The Top 7 Best 40 Mph Electric Scooters
Reviews🔗Dualtron X Limited: The Ultimate Electric Scooterhttps://preview.redd.it/7wgffwq41b3d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=316f785d5cb62507764214b8978c8787b7d8a5d6 As a content writer and an avid user of the Dualtron X Limited Electric Scooter, I can vouch for its supercharged capabilities. With a top speed reaching up to 113 kph, this scooter surges past its competitors in performance. It's not just about speed though; the Easywheel system allows me to easily remove the rim or the large tubeless tires for maintenance. However, it does have a couple of drawbacks. Firstly, the scooter can be quite noisy, especially when pulling on the throttle. Secondly, the gear shift button located on the display in the center of the handlebars can be challenging to reach while riding, which could have been placed more conveniently. Despite these minor flaws, the Dualtron X Limited is an exceptional scooter. Its dual batteries provide a remarkable 161 kilometers of range, and the hydraulic brakes with 4-piston calipers ensure excellent control over the bike. The 29-step adjustable hydraulic suspension provides a comfortable ride even on rough terrains, making it ideal for long rides. Moreover, the high-end features like aviation aluminum alloy build, built-in handlebar extender, built-in steering damper, EY4 finger throttle, LCD display, and dual voltmeters offer a vehicle-grade experience. Remember, although it's costly, there's no denying the unmatched performance and features of the Dualtron X Limited Electric Scooter. 🔗2800W Electric Scooter with Long Range and Top Speedhttps://preview.redd.it/ysf6yy351b3d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b153bcd8bf337d4256ced346b2a5533af13a0c59 I recently got to try out the LEOOUT Electric Scooter, and I must say, it's been an exhilarating ride! Its 2800W motor delivers quick acceleration, making my daily commute a breeze. The battery life is impressive - reaching up to 60 miles on a single charge! It's foldable too, making storage a breeze. This scooter isn't just about speed and distance though. The mechanical disc brake system ensures my safety when whizzing down the road. The non-slip pedals add another layer of security, especially during high-speed rides and off-road adventures. Speaking of off-roading, the scooter features 10" thickened heavy-duty off-road tires that provide excellent traction and durability. The frame is sturdy enough to carry up to 330 lbs, making it suitable for riders of all sizes. One more thing I love about this scooter is its lighting system - headlights and left & right steering flash lights. They light up my path at night and ensure visibility to other road users, adding a safety factor. However, like any product, it isn't perfect. The charging time is quite long, around 5-6 hours. Also, the weight at 88 lbs might seem a bit heavy for some users. Overall, the LEOOUT Electric Scooter offers a thrilling ride with great speed and range. Its safety features make it a reliable choice for both city commutes and off-roading escapades. The folding mechanism adds convenience to storage and transport. If you're looking for a high-speed electric scooter with off-roading capabilities, this might just be the perfect pick for you! 🔗Aiho Convertible Sleeper Chairhttps://preview.redd.it/mcrgdrf51b3d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4447b503db5c467f4058931938c0bdf0872f3f81 As a daily commuter, I've been using the AJOOSOS X500 Electric Scooter for a while now, and I must say it has been a game-changer. First and foremost, the build quality is exceptional. The scooter comes with dual shock absorbers that provide a smooth ride, even on rough roads. The foldable design is another great feature; it takes less than 5 seconds to fold it up, allowing me to easily store it in the trunk of my car. One of the standout features of this scooter is the customizable settings on the handlebar. However, there was a minor issue that caught my attention. The scooter's speed is advertised to reach up to 40mph, but in reality, it only manages to achieve 25mph in the fastest gear. This discrepancy was a bit disappointing, but it still offers a decent range of 15-25 miles, which suits my daily needs perfectly. Despite these minor inconveniences, the AJOOSOS X500 Electric Scooter has been serving me well as a reliable, comfortable, and fun means of transportation for adults. Its power, durability, and ease of use make it worth considering if you're in the market for an electric scooter. 🔗Dualtron Storm LTD Electric Scooter: 11,500W, 135 Mile Rangehttps://preview.redd.it/h6duo7361b3d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a8efb49ee910ff447b52f5f305b6631ea551f28b As an electric scooter enthusiast, I've had the chance to test out many different models, and one that has truly caught my eye is the Dualtron Storm LTD. This innovative ride boasts an enormous 84-Volt, 45Ah LG battery pack, offering up to a 135 mile range – perfect for those looking to go on longer rides without worrying about running out of juice. One of the standout features of the Dualtron Storm LTD is its power. With a max of 11,500-Watts from its BLDC motors, this scooter provides excellent acceleration and top speeds, making it a thrilling ride for experienced riders. The build quality of the Dualtron Storm LTD is also quite impressive. Its frame and handlebars are crafted from aviation grade 6082-T6 aluminum alloy, providing durability and stability while riding at high speeds. Additionally, the scooter comes with hydraulic brakes equipped with standard ABS, providing exceptional stopping power when needed. Another notable aspect of the Dualtron Storm LTD is its advanced technology. The scooter comes stock with a steering damper, fingerprint reader, and RSC run flat tires, allowing riders to have full control over their vehicle at all times. However, there are some cons to consider with this powerful ride. Some users have reported issues with its suspension, stating that it could be softer for more comfortable rides on uneven terrain. Additionally, the scooter's throttle is quite touchy, potentially leading to accidents if not handled properly. Despite these cons, the Dualtron Storm LTD is an exceptional electric scooter for experienced riders looking for a high-performance vehicle. Its impressive range, top speeds, and advanced technology make it a worthwhile investment for anyone seeking a thrilling ride. 🔗3000W Fat Tire Electric Scooter for 40 Mph Speedshttps://preview.redd.it/bifpqma61b3d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cb4c52136c4d40863ad5e39484720ae01c8eaf46 I recently decided to give the LinksEride M2 Big Wheel 3000W 60V 40Ah Fat Tire Lithium Electric Scooter a try, and to be honest, it has made my daily commute a whole lot more fun and efficient. One of the things that stood out to me was the scooter's unique design. The thick and light aluminum frame, combined with the comfortable seat and wide handlebars, made for a smooth, stable ride. Plus, the fat tires ensure a safer and more protected ride, especially when you're cruising at top speeds of up to 46.6 mph. The high-performance motor is also a game-changer, offering 3000W of power and 3 speeds for a seamless and enjoyable ride. The removable lithium battery ensures that your scooter stays charged and ready to go, while the hydraulic disc brakes offer unparalleled safety and control. On the downside, the scooter could be a bit more lightweight and portable, especially when it comes to storing it in a garage or using it as a tow truck. However, the benefits of this powerful and stylish electric scooter far outweigh any minor drawbacks. 🔗Electric Scooter Diablo with 1000W Hub Motorhttps://preview.redd.it/2nyopam61b3d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3c8f52ba37450486d9852deb453ee2102a53610b I recently got the chance to try out the MotoTec Diablo 48V 1000W Electric Scooter, and let me tell you, it's been a game-changer for my daily commute! I was initially hesitant about investing in an electric scooter, but this little powerhouse has exceeded my expectations. The first thing that really caught my eye was the sleek, attitude-filled design. It's got ergonomic shapes and a large padded seat that makes every ride comfortable and stylish. Plus, it comes equipped with an LED headlight and brake light, perfect for those early morning or late-night rides. But the real star of the show is the 1000 watt rear hub motor. This baby packs a punch, ready to tackle any terrain with ease. And with a top speed of 25 mph and a range of 10-20 miles, I can zip around town without breaking a sweat. The scooter also features front and rear disc brakes, so I always feel safe and secure when riding. And the key ignition means no unwanted joyrides from friends or family. Now, I will say that the charging time can be a bit of a pain – it takes around 6-8 hours to fully charge the battery. But once it's ready to go, this scooter is my new favorite mode of transportation. In conclusion, the MotoTec Diablo 48V 1000W Electric Scooter has been an absolute pleasure to use. It's comfortable, stylish, and packs a powerful punch in terms of performance. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and fun way to get around town. 🔗Fast and Durable 65 MPH Electric Scooterhttps://preview.redd.it/3bqhn4071b3d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1dd3d49316d7e8edc7f071dbc0f7637662b84bf5 I recently got the chance to ride the Kaabo Wolf King GTR electric scooter, and it definitely lived up to its hype! As soon as I hopped onto this beast, I could tell it was a whole different level compared to my old e-scooter. The design has been greatly improved, making it feel much more modern and sleek. The new suspension system, removable battery, and upgraded lighting package were all attractive features that compelled me to buy it. One thing that slightly disappointed me was the fact that it didn't come with a 5A charger, like some promotional videos showed. Instead, I received two 2A chargers, which are decent but wouldn't mind getting a 5A one when available. One little tip I discovered while using the chargers is that they have a built-in reset mechanism that requires you to unplug and plug it back into the wall socket every time you use it, or else the LED light will remain green. The increased deck height on the Wolf King GTR felt great, providing a comfortable and secure ride. However, I understand that some riders might not prefer this, so the optional Kaabo riser could be helpful for those who want a slightly taller handlebar configuration. I'm approximately 5'11", and I felt just fine with the default handlebar height, but I might consider purchasing the riser at some point later. As I rode around town on this powerful scooter, I couldn't believe how easily it zipped past other vehicles and pedestrians. And with its impressive battery life, I was able to take multiple trips without worrying about running out of juice. The lightning-fast acceleration and exceptional performance even on wet roads blew my mind, making it a thrilling ride every single time. One minor issue I encountered was the alarm feature, which was impressively loud, especially when I accidentally hit the button while pushing the unlocked scooter. To avoid any sudden surprises, I would make sure to disable the alarm manually before pushing the scooter or parking it near people. Overall, I am absolutely blown away by the performance, comfort, and reliability of the Kaabo Wolf King GTR electric scooter. Its stunning design, powerful acceleration, and exceptional range definitely set a new standard for e-scooters in the market. If you're considering upgrading your current ride or entering the world of electric scooters, I highly recommend checking out this incredible machine!

2024.05.29 07:50 crumch-mumch Small Claims Judge Questions
Small Claims Judge asks to keep my Evidence.
As the Title says. My judge in Southern California asked to keep my evidence for a few weeks following my small claims. This claim is concerning Diminished Value of a vehicle. I am the plaintiff.
In a similar claim I’ve won on a different car, it was fairly open and shut with my Portal Minute order showing up same day with judgement. In this case, I sued the policy holder, only they were named and I held onto my evidence after the trial. My evidence present day followed a similar template with the documents pertaining to this situation.
Present day, the judge has asked me why I did not sue the insurance company directly. I simply followed what the defendant’s insurance company had explained to me which is why I took their insured to court. The thing that has stuck out to me is that the judge asked to keep my evidence, this was a different procedure from the first time I went for the same issue. I know every judge is different, and perhaps I was lucky on a same day judgement being posted.
I was wondering reasons why they’d want to keep my evidence? Also why they’d ask me a question about why I’m suing the policyholder? By applying Occams Razor I figure I maybe didn’t explain my case well and they need to look it over again?

2024.05.29 07:49 TheBestWeedMan Volvo V70 D3 vs Audi A6 C6
Hello.
First time using a forum to discuss the matter. I want to buy one of these 2008 flagships. I have driven both, check for rust, brakes, engine leaks, how well the owner has been and so on, but they both are great cars in my opinion. Both cost the same amount. I am European.
Audi A6 C6: 3.0 TDI 176kW Pros: drives much quieter, sound system is better, 7 gear gearbox is smoother, has more gears, more space in the inside
Cons: Along the way the engine chain needs to be changed which is very expensive, maintenance more expensive and stupidly difficult, cloth interior,
Volvo V70 D3: 2.4D 161kW(tuned) Pros: distance controlled cruise control, white leather seats, webasto heating, recently replaced engine, more economical, maintenance wise cheaper and easier, rear seats with childseats
Cons: more noise inside the car, not so good of a Soundsystem as a standard Audi, 6 speed gearbox
Easily the Volvo is better for maintenance and robustness, but the Audi is superb when long highway distances.
Let me know about your experience in the comments.

2024.05.29 07:48 Kgnz8 My brain is not my friend
It has taken me a while to accept this, 31 years to be exact. My brain is NOT my friend. It doesn’t want the best for me. It wants to scroll on TikTok for 5-6hrs each day (I have checked my stats), it wants to eat junk, sleep late & wake up late. It wants to stay high to avoid dealing with trauma. It doesn’t enjoy working for anything, yet it wants the best tech, the best sex mates, the best house, the best car. I’m not happy with all my accomplishments because my brain is choosing not to be happy. I’m doing better than 70% of my peers, yet I’m a sad kinda-rich guy. I have to reconcile with it and train it. I can’t do this when distracted. But I don’t know how to begin the journey. Any ideas? I want to be grateful for what God has blessed me with, I want to enjoy and LIVE life. Based on the average maximum age in my country, I can predict I have 30-40yrs left on this earth. I don’t want to die without ever living.

2024.05.29 07:44 confused_dad1919 I [37m] am confused about her [39m]?
Whew, I typed ALOT.. and feel as if I didn’t type ENOUGH.. lol.. here goes…
Ex (39f) and I (37m) dated for roughly 7 months last year. We both have two kids. She broke up with me in Sep of 2023 saying she didn’t want to add two kids into her life. I was devastated. I did the thing of starting dating someone new within a month.
Nov of 2023, my ex gf reaches out to me. I meet with her, she clarifies why she broke up with me again in person. She said it was for closure.
Last week of 2023, ex gf reaches back out to me. Confesses her love. Says she wants to try again. I’m confused, it was very sudden and very much a lot.
At this time, I am still dating a new woman. This is where I really messed up. I very much wanted to still be with my ex gf, but I had serious reservations. I didn’t break it off with the new woman. I dated both of them for a month until they found out about one another. I have seriously accepted that I really, really fucked up here. I could give a million reasons why I couldn’t work up the courage to break it off with the new girl - past trauma, etc… ultimately, it was a really shitty thing I did and I have taken full accountability for my actions.
Once they found out about one another, I’ve cut ties the new woman. I’ve found a new therapist who has given me some amazing direction. I am actively and incessantly working on doing the work so I never find myself in the position to do what I’ve done to hurt people like that again.
My ex-gf has stayed in contact with me since then and has been incredibly supportive of me the past 4 months. She and I have not been romantically involved, but have occasionally seen each other for dinner here and there. She had told me many times that she needed me and wanted me over those months, but couldn’t be in a relationship with me again.
About a month ago, she purchased a house. I had went no-contact, I couldn’t focus on what I needed to work on on myself if I was constantly involved with her. She was overwhelmed with the move and the new house and asked me to help.
I ended up helping a lot. Moving several car fulls and truck fulls of things, disassembling and reassembling furniture, getting dinner and food for her and her kids, making sure they had everything they needed. Trying to help alleviate the overwhelming pressure of being a first time home-owner, and helping her deal with a flooded basement upon move in.
With spending a lot of time together and helping her so much she admitted she was wanting to re-evaluate our relationship. I set boundaries, one of them being that I didn’t want to have sex with her. The other being that we shouldn’t see each other so often once the move was completed.
Last week, Monday, she asked me to come over to watch a show and help with some other things around the house and dinner. I obliged. There was some touching and kissing, I went home early.
Tuesday, she asked the same thing. I obliged. More of the same. She said she really, really wanted me. I told her no, but did provide oral sex. She said she was unsatisfied with that, I went home early.
Wednesday, she asked the same thing as the previous two nights. I said it may be best if I take the night to myself and do some reading, writing and journaling to recuperate. I stayed home.
Thursday, she typically has choir practice. She cancelled and asked me to come over. I came over, we did the same. I’m a guy who enjoys providing oral sex.. so I was OK with just doing that. She again was not. She became very distraught and indignant with my boundary. Saying that it was unfair and ridiculous that I would withhold actual sex from her. I caved, and I shouldn’t have.
Friday, we’re texting a lot. We’re talking about possible future plans and things are moving pretty quickly back into relationship status. I’m getting more into the swing of resuming a sexual relationship and she abruptly cuts me off saying “There has been too much focus on sex.” So, I drop it. She asks me to come over that night, I come over, we had a great evening. No sex, but I stay the night.
Saturday, all day we’re working on cleaning out boxes and and decluttering the new house. She doesn’t want me to touch her all day. Her daughter has a theater awards show, I attend with her. She’s very overwhelmed with dealing with both of her daughters all afternoon and evening. That evening, I stay the night again and she still doesn’t want to be touched. I’m ok with that, the day and night was very overstimulating for both of us.
This is where things go off the rails this past week. At 1 am, we’re both awoken by her younger daughter being obnoxious with a friend of hers that was sleeping over. I look over in bed half asleep, see her texting a lot and an image. My brain immediately goes to : she’s texting someone and she sent them a picture of her in bed next to me. I ask who the guy is, and she becomes very upset with me. I had said to her “did I do something wrong? It looks like you’re texting someone and sending selfies?” Turns out it was a selfie her daughter had sent her, (makes sense - the image was on the left, not the right..) and she was texting her daughter to go to bed.
In the morning, Sunday, she tells me she doesn’t want to see me anymore because I accused her of texting someone. I understand, and given the history, it seems pretty shitty of me to assume so. I clarified that while it may have been an accusation, it wasn’t from a place of malice. I was just concerned that she didn’t want to talk to me about what may be on her mind or what she was overwhelmed about. And we had both had a long, strenuous day, had woken up in middle of the night and that is just what it had looked like to me at first glance and it hurt me at first so I wanted to talk about it if that were the case. Especially since we hadn’t even yet talked about exclusivity and that it was just assumed.
I wanted to resume the conversation and clarify those things. She did not. I left and went home. I had left my iPad at her house when leaving.
In the days since, she has continued to contact me about things with the house and checking on on me and what I’m doing. I’ve been stand-offish because I believe we both need our space to consider what to do next about possibly moving forward. I confided in her last night (Monday night) that I absolutely want a future with her. She never responded, and left me on read.
Today (Tuesday) in the afternoon I had some time away from work and said I would be by to grab my iPad when she was home for lunch. I stop by, grab my iPad and leave.
She immediately texts me that “that was pretty brief, huh?” And I don’t respond. I’m not sure what to say or do and I had a lot going on today with work and kids once I got back to the office and then home. I text her back in the evening, “I’m confused and emotionally exhausted.”
She said when I stopped by it made her feel bad because I was being awkward. I told her that if she wanted more from that exchange that she could have initiated, said or done anything. She says “I felt brushed off. You left very quickly.” It became an evening of back and forth texting, lots of accusing me of “not being ready” and all the ways I had hurt her.
Not all of it untrue. There is still a lot I am learning and working on, and I was very open and honest about that when we were talking about restarting the relationship. I mentioned it was hurtful of her to not respect the boundaries I had set, but did take accountability for the fact that I didn’t enforce them.
She gave me the “I’m sorry you feel that way” spiel. I told her that that coupled with her not taking my boundaries that I communicated seriously was hurtful. I was then met with “this is ridiculous, I don’t want to have this conversation anymore,” “we’re both very hurt and emotional right now,” and “I’m not ready to continue this conversation right now.”
A large basis of our relationship the past year has been focused around her, how she is so tired because she is a single mom. I’m a single dad, I have my kids 50% of the time and I’m so active in my kids’ lives, but I don’t bring that up because she does have her kids 100% of the time and the kids’ dad isn’t in their life but maybe a couple days every other month. So, I’m typically very understanding of that and it’s part of why I offer to help so much. I feel as if my needs and emotions aren’t even part of her equation. That coupled with my actions at the beginning of the year make me feel as if I am obligated to allow the imbalance I feel.
The more I write this out, the more I understand and feel I should just leave all of this behind and move on. But, once you get to know someone like that and their kids, the hooks dig in so deep. I still care so deeply for her and her kids, and my own trauma and issues come from childhood neglect.. and part of me just feels so deeply for her and her kids’ situation.
So.. I guess I’m just looking for different perspectives. What is the best way to go with all of this? Do I just leave well enough alone and deal with the heartbreak? Do I continue to try to salvage this mess? A huge part of me absolutely wants to, but the other part of me tells me I’m being an idiot.

Last week, Monday, she asked me to come over to watch a show and help with some other things around the house and dinner. I obliged. There was some touching and kissing, I went home early.
Tuesday, she asked the same thing. I obliged. More of the same. She said she really, really wanted me. I told her no, but did provide oral sex. She said she was unsatisfied with that, I went home early.
Wednesday, she asked the same thing as the previous two nights. I said it may be best if I take the night to myself and do some reading, writing and journaling to recuperate. I stayed home.
Thursday, she typically has choir practice. She cancelled and asked me to come over. I came over, we did the same. I’m a guy who enjoys providing oral sex.. so I was OK with just doing that. She again was not. She became very distraught and indignant with my boundary. Saying that it was unfair and ridiculous that I would withhold actual sex from her. I caved, and I shouldn’t have.
Friday, we’re texting a lot. We’re talking about possible future plans and things are moving pretty quickly back into relationship status. I’m getting more into the swing of resuming a sexual relationship and she abruptly cuts me off saying “There has been too much focus on sex.” So, I drop it. She asks me to come over that night, I come over, we had a great evening. No sex, but I stay the night.
Saturday, all day we’re working on cleaning out boxes and and decluttering the new house. She doesn’t want me to touch her all day. Her daughter has a theater awards show, I attend with her. She’s very overwhelmed with dealing with both of her daughters all afternoon and evening. That evening, I stay the night again and she still doesn’t want to be touched. I’m ok with that, the day and night was very overstimulating for both of us.
This is where things go off the rails this past week. At 1 am, we’re both awoken by her younger daughter being obnoxious with a friend of hers that was sleeping over. I look over in bed half asleep, see her texting a lot and an image. My brain immediately goes to : she’s texting someone and she sent them a picture of her in bed next to me. I ask who the guy is, and she becomes very upset with me. I had said to her “did I do something wrong? It looks like you’re texting someone and sending selfies?” Turns out it was a selfie her daughter had sent her, (makes sense - the image was on the left, not the right..) and she was texting her daughter to go to bed.
In the morning, Sunday, she tells me she doesn’t want to see me anymore because I accused her of texting someone. I understand, and given the history, it seems pretty shitty of me to assume so. I clarified that while it may have been an accusation, it wasn’t from a place of malice. I was just concerned that she didn’t want to talk to me about what may be on her mind or what she was overwhelmed about. And we had both had a long, strenuous day, had woken up in middle of the night and that is just what it had looked like to me at first glance and it hurt me at first so I wanted to talk about it if that were the case. Especially since we hadn’t even yet talked about exclusivity and that it was just assumed.
I wanted to resume the conversation and clarify those things. She did not. I left and went home. I had left my iPad at her house when leaving.
In the days since, she has continued to contact me about things with the house and checking on on me and what I’m doing. I’ve been stand-offish because I believe we both need our space to consider what to do next about possibly moving forward. I confided in her last night (Monday night) that I absolutely want a future with her. She never responded, and left me on read.
Today (Tuesday) in the afternoon I had some time away from work and said I would be by to grab my iPad when she was home for lunch. I stop by, grab my iPad and leave.
She immediately texts me that “that was pretty brief, huh?” And I don’t respond. I’m not sure what to say or do and I had a lot going on today with work and kids once I got back to the office and then home. I text her back in the evening, “I’m confused and emotionally exhausted.”
She said when I stopped by it made her feel bad because I was being awkward. I told her that if she wanted more from that exchange that she could have initiated, said or done anything. She says “I felt brushed off. You left very quickly.” It became an evening of back and forth texting, lots of accusing me of “not being ready” and all the ways I had hurt her.
Not all of it untrue. There is still a lot I am learning and working on, and I was very open and honest about that when we were talking about restarting the relationship. I mentioned it was hurtful of her to not respect the boundaries I had set, but did take accountability for the fact that I didn’t enforce them.
She gave me the “I’m sorry you feel that way” spiel. I told her that that coupled with her not taking my boundaries that I communicated seriously was hurtful. I was then met with “this is ridiculous, I don’t want to have this conversation anymore,” “we’re both very hurt and emotional right now,” and “I’m not ready to continue this conversation right now.”
A large basis of our relationship the past year has been focused around her, how she is so tired because she is a single mom. I’m a single dad, I have my kids 50% of the time and I’m so active in my kids’ lives, but I don’t bring that up because she does have her kids 100% of the time and the kids’ dad isn’t in their life but maybe a couple days every other month. So, I’m typically very understanding of that and it’s part of why I offer to help so much. I feel as if my needs and emotions aren’t even part of her equation. That coupled with my actions at the beginning of the year make me feel as if I am obligated to allow the imbalance I feel.
The more I write this out, the more I understand and feel I should just leave all of this behind and move on. But, once you get to know someone like that and their kids, the hooks dig in so deep. I still care so deeply for her and her kids, and my own trauma and issues come from childhood neglect.. and part of me just feels so deeply for her and her kids’ situation.
So.. I guess I’m just looking for different perspectives. What is the best way to go with all of this? Do I just leave well enough alone and deal with the heartbreak? Do I continue to try to salvage this mess? A huge part of me absolutely wants to, but the other part of me tells me I’m being an idiot.
2024.05.29 07:41 CaptainSwoosh Turo Hydroplane Accident Dispute
Last year, I rented a car for a weekend trip. The owner had a pretty high rating and the price was relatively affordable.
The owner assured me he would take all of the pre-trip photos for me and that the car had no issues. When I got the car, it was nice and clean. I still tried to check around the car and take some photos. However, something I missed was that the tire pressure light was on as soon as I drove away. I talked with the owner and he asked me to air it up. So I did.
While I was heading back from the trip, it began to rain, but soon after the rain began to stop. Although I was traveling at a relatively slow speed for the highway I was on and the rain was dissipating, the vehicle hydroplaned, spun out, and I crashed into the median concrete barrier. I was stuck in oncoming traffic, but I honked at each car and thankfully no one struck me. I suffered some minor injuries.
I later figured out that the license plate was several months expired and the tires were oddly worn and essentially bald on one of the rear tires (vehicle was RWD). I did not notice this when I got the car because it was very low to the ground, and it was the inside of the tires that was badly worn. I also figured out through historical government weather tools that the rain on the road at the time I crashed was approximately .1 inches or less.
Although this would be covered by insurance, I don’t want my rates to go up. I have exhaustively tried to get a lawyer, but nobody will take this relatively small case. The crash also happened in a state I am not from. I have also tried to dispute with Turo for the past several months, but lately they have stopped responding. I have also entertained representing myself.
If you have any advice, I would appreciate it. Thank you for your time.

2024.05.29 07:41 crumch-mumch Small Claims Judge asks to keep my Evidence
As the Title says. My judge in Southern California asked to keep my evidence for a few weeks following my small claims. This claim is concerning Diminished Value of a vehicle. I am the plaintiff.
In a similar claim I’ve won on a different car, it was fairly open and shut with my Portal Minute order showing up same day with judgement. In this case, I sued the policy holder, only they were named and I held onto my evidence after the trial. My evidence present day followed a similar template with the documents pertaining to this situation.
Present day, the judge has asked me why I did not sue the insurance company. I simply followed what the defendant’s insurance company had explained to me which is why I took their insured to court. The thing that has stuck out to me is that the judge asked to keep my evidence, this was a different procedure from the first time I went for the same issue. I know every judge is different, and perhaps I was lucky on a same day judgement being posted.
I was wondering reasons why they’d want to keep my evidence? By applying Occams Razor I figure I maybe didn’t explain my case well and they need to look it over again?

On the positive side, I noticed a significant difference in my energy bill after installing it. The tint does an excellent job of blocking UV rays and keeping my home cooler, making a noticeable improvement in the overall temperature. However, there's a downside I didn't anticipate. The tint only provides 35% light blockage, which didn't make a significant difference in how hot my room still feels. I also noticed that the color of the tint filtering through my windows has a cool blue hue, which could be off-putting if it clashes with my home decor. Considering my overall experience, I think the product would be more appealing with a darker tint for better light blocking, and perhaps a more neutral color. Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful for the energy savings, but I still believe there's room for improvement in the product to make it even more effective. 🔗High-Performance Nano Ceramic 35% Window Tint Film for Heat and UV Protectionhttps://preview.redd.it/bd37n5b2ya3d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f51c52c4b56553929139116130afa614c8935f0f As someone who frequently drives in warm climates, I was excited to try out the Nano Ceramic Window Tint Film.

2024.05.29 07:33 hollowbikky Q) Prepaying the loan, but interest amount not reducing. Any ideas?
Hi, I have a quick question and your answers will be really helpful to me. I have a car loan of 15L for 7 years at 8.9 interest rate from SBI. The monthly EMI is 25k. I have been paying 25k emi + 25k pre pay since the first month. Now when i check the statement...it says 25k principal repayment, 16,032 principal repayment and 8,968 interest repayment. This has been same for every month, my question is, shouldn't the amount 8,698 reduce as I have been paying more and my principal is reducing...so the interest on it should also reduce?

2024.05.29 07:32 Icy-Teaching940 Refinance my car loan outside of my credit union before I file chapter 7?
Looking for advice or any insight.
I’m $45k in credit card debt. Plan to meet with a lawyer and talk about filing for chapter 7 bankruptcy as soon as I can. I’ve been unemployed since January and just doordashing since while I apply to literally every job on indeed everyday. So my car is pretty vital to me at the moment. The thing is I have my car loan through my credit union which I also have a credit card at that I’m going to stop paying on when it comes to meeting with a lawyer.
I’ve read about credit unions completely cutting ties after BK. I have already changed my checking account over but my car loan is still there. I’ve only had it for a little over a year but I’ve never missed a payment and I have about $2k in equity on it. I would reaffirm if it comes down to that but I fear the credit union won’t even agree to that they’ll just close my account and repo. Should I try to refinance it somewhere else that is more likely to let me keep it after BK? I know I’m going to take a hit on the interest rate but I’m desperate to keep the car.

2024.05.29 07:26 ThrowRAZestyclose- Hello
Oh, very long post. Sorry.
Hello, everyone! I know it’s been a while. Being completely honest with you, I am not okay… well, I’m feeling better now. I’ve been feeling horrible, hella anxious, and, yeah, depressed. I don’t even know how to start this post or how to explain what has happened. Maybe it’s really nothing, but it took a toll on my mental health.
Thank you for all your comments and messages. For real, thank you for your concern. It wasn’t my intention to worry you all, but yeah, I wasn’t having a great time. I’m still fighting against my own demons, but it’s all better now. So, thank you, really. I appreciate it so much. I wish we all could go out for a coffee in real life or something.
I’ll let you know what has happened.
A lot of things happened around Mother’s Day, and it brought up old feelings and bad impulses against myself that I had left long in the past. There was a day when I simply didn’t want to exist anymore, to say it kindly. I know my hormones are not being helpful, and the only feeling I can trust right now is my love for hubby and baby and our upcoming little girls. I honestly don’t know what I would do without them. They are my entire world and universe. They simply save me. And I need to be strong for these babies, they are not doing so well. Maybe that’s also part of what made me feel so down like this.
I was already feeling down a few days before Mother’s Day and didn’t feel like celebrating. I know my mom had betrayed me and done unforgivable things up to that point, but I couldn’t help but feel sad because… well, I no longer have a mom. I asked the aunties and grauntie not to acknowledge the day for me, and they understood. Grauntie did call me early in the morning, and it made me sob hard, we talked for about an hour, so go figure. Hubby and I got her a big gift to show our appreciation and gratitude because he says she has also stood as a mother figure for him during these chaotic months. Oh, yea, grauntie is a great woman, and she laughed so much about her nickname, btw, she loves it. Baby calls her that now, well “grantie.” Aunties started saying happy mother’s day the next day lol.
Anyway, hubby didn’t let the day pass for me. He brought me breakfast in bed, he cooked all day, and since we decided to stay home, he brought healthy junk food (approved by my doctors, he made sure about that) for us to stay in bed, or on the couch, watching movies, Bluey, and a marathon of my shitty show that he doesn’t like (but he enjoys in secret lol). He gave me some presents and flowers that baby picked herself. I don’t know when this man took the time to also help baby make a craft for me without me noticing. It was very cute. We decided to stay home, turn the lights off, and stay upstairs pretending we weren’t really there. We both couldn’t help but be concerned and a bit anxious about ILs showing up. We stayed locked upstairs just resting, snuggling, and cuddling.
I will try to summarize what happened when they showed up.
Baby was taking a nap in her room, and we were into our own stuff when they interrupted. We tried to ignore them, but MIL kept insisting, saying she knew we were home. She kept ringing the bell and then knocking on the door. They claimed they were visiting us because we couldn’t attend her reunion. It was only MIL and SIL (not beast SIL), and they were carrying bowls with food. Later I noticed it was only food they know I am allergic to or that I don’t like. After some minutes, we decided to just get rid of them. Hubby changed and went downstairs to warn them he was calling the police (he did that for proof that he asked them to leave, knowing they were not going to go away). MIL was very calm and kept saying shit, but hubby didn’t engage in her conversation. Important information: she asked a lot about me and baby, about our safety. I stayed upstairs, and peeking through the window, I noticed their car was parked on the other side of the street, out of the range of our door cam. Fucking creepy BIL was inside, I guess waiting for them.
I picked up my phone to take a picture of him and I had some unread texts from good SIL warning us ILs were coming and saying things like “be careful,” blah blah. She also said good BIL was heading over here so he could help take them out of our place, I guess. I gotta give points in favor of BIL because he stood up for hubby and even called their mother a liar.
So, we called the police on them, but they also called the police on us, on hubby. Fucking idiots. Fucking MIL. They called the police on hubby saying they believed there was a case of domestic violence happening in our house. They said we didn’t open the door and they were scared because they suspected I’ve been in danger and they hadn’t heard my voice or baby inside. To this point, we are not sure who made the call, but I believe it was creeypy BIL. Hubby had to open the door to talk to the officers, I also had to go out because they wanted to speak to me. Mind you, I was so stressed and just wanted to help hubby with the bullshit that I didn’t realize I was only wearing a top and leggings because, mind you again, I was comfy in my house before they decided to arrive. So, yea, they saw my belly and they officially know that I am pregnant. I, somehow, feel so violated by them knowing. Ugh, fucking idiot creepy BIL’s face and smirk and his eyes all over me still give me the chills. Good BIL had arrived at this point too, so he also saw me but his reaction was the most normal of all. I guess he just got sad. I know he wanted to get close to me but he didn’t dare. Good, I guess.
A female officer separated me from the drama and asked me a bunch of questions in private. I brought her inside the house because baby was still sleeping upstairs. She kept glaring around, like looking for something suspicious, I suppose. The other officer talked with hubby and with a neighbor and he very soon concluded the accusations were all bullshit. They just asked to check on baby because MIL kept insisting. We had to explain that baby was actually her grandkid because she kept asking about her daughter, I just wanted to punch her in the face. I went to pick baby up, she was still asleep, and the cop I was talking with was nice enough to keep both of us inside the house. Baby ended up waking up and crying with all the trouble from outside, anyway. MIL heard her crying and she lost her calm, started to raise her voice. I couldn’t control myself and I poked my head out and told MIL that of course, baby was crying and it was all her fault, and I called her a bitch 🙄 This led to a verbal fight, just imagine everyone involved… and the cops. SIL was crying. I stayed inside but close enough to the door because I was worried about hubby. I overheard him asking if it was done and if he could go inside with us. They were leaving, officers were making them go away but MIL couldn’t just leave without causing more distress and told hubby she wished I bleed out and die while giving birth and that she hopes my baby is not his (because they changed the game, now I am the cheater). I instinctively opened the door to stop hubby from reacting but he was just there standing and staring at her. Ok, background: I had preeclampsia when baby was born, then after being sent home I got very ill and had to be rushed to the hospital because I got an infection. Hubby and everyone got super worried when I had to go back to the hospital. It was bad. Hubby thought the worst and he obviously talked with MIL about it, back at the time so yeah, she knew where to hurt him. Hubby said to good BIL something like “yes, this is the family you keep choosing.” He was like in shock. Hubby and I just went back inside and we hugged. Good BIL tried to talk to us but we ignored him, I know he was upset. He recently sent me a text I haven’t answered back. I have seen hubby sad and vulnerable, but the only time I’ve seen him actually cry was when his father passed away. This time he cried too and couldn’t let us go an inch away from him. I held back my tears. We were very jumpy and uncomfortable so we took some blankets and went to sleep in the other house. There’s no furniture, no lights, and no water yet in my dad’s house but it was better to know we were nowhere to be found. It was like camping for baby, she even asked for vampire stories that we invented for her right there. Then, hubby and I just hugged and cried our eyes out to sleep. I was simply angry and sad and upset that they took away our peace. I cried because this bitch keeps hurting my family, because they are making us run away from our own house, from wverything we have built and for what!? I am thankful we have my dad’s house to escape but it brings me bad memories and I also got a bit triggered that night, I guess. We talked a lot that night and we came to the same conclusion: the only thing that matters is that we have each other and we will never let them win.
No, it wasn’t enough for a RO. Police didn’t want to try for charges because all they saw was a family drama, which it was if you see it as an isolated incident. No, they didn’t go against the beats RO. We told and showed and give everythign to our lawyer.
Then my mom happened. I had a few voicemails from her, and I was weak, so I listened to them. This happened the next day. I waited for hubby so I wouldn’t have to listen to them alone. This was the biggest mistake of my life. We planned to have a nice dinner at home to save Mother’s Day and as an excuse to have a date but I ruined it all. I don’t know why I listened to all of them. She started all calm, victimizing herself but calm. She said happy Mother's Day to me, started to talk about baby, about me, and about my brother. She said she is very sad to be a mother without her kids. She said it would be easier if we were dead (yes, she said that), she would cope better with that truth. It escalated with each voicemail, to the point where she blamed me for what happened with her POS boyfriend and me. I had never heard her say something like this to me while growing up. Never. She claims she’s now all lonely because of me. She said she should have aborted me when she had the chance, as my dad suggested. This… I made me go numb. She accused me of seducing this man and that’s why he fell for me. Only thing I can think is that this POS has been manipulating her, idk but it hurt like hell. She told me that I should have stopped him. She blamed me too because, after that incident, she had lost all opportunities to recover her relationship with my dad. She then basically said our dad never really loved me and my brother, and that’s why he left and never came back. I started to spiral and, well, I barely remember my dad since they divorced. He came back when everything exploded, but before that… I don’t really have memories. I don’t know, she made me question a lot of things. Her tone was calm and sweet, which made it worse. She didn’t use the words or phrasing I am using right now either, her discourse made sense, this is basically what she meant. Of course, she also called me a bad mom too, and I couldn’t help but think about all the things good SIL said about baby and how I didn’t notice it. I started to blame myself for the condition of my baby twins. I am not a bad mom, I know that, but it got me right there. I thought about baby being bullied by her cousins, about MIL throwing up the food I packed for her right in front of her, about our little baby eating food from the floor and trembling because she was frightened. I can’t take out of my mind the image of baby trembling. And I cried as I hadn’t cried in a while. And then I started to remember a lot of other things about my life. I questioned myself again if my mom ever really loved us because growing up, it felt like she did, and I was so grateful I had my mom with me because she was by my side all the time after the POS happened. She was there when I started to struggle in my teens, when I wanted to die, when I started to hurt myself. My dad was there too, and I have beautiful memories with him, he stood for us, I became really close to him, he helped us a lot during that time, but there are a lot of blank spaces where he’s not around. He got another girlfriend, and that time he stayed close to us in the same city but he stopped visiting. Until we went to college, he got together with his current wife, and flew away. He was there if we ever needed money, he paid for our education, but I never reached out to him asking for any other type of help. We barely talked, I tell you he didn’t even knew hubby or baby. To be fair, he was comming over for our wedding but we had to cancel it because of covid. I kept spiraling about it. I got tangled in my mom’s words. I remembered the POS boyfriends I had and how I let them mistreat me, do whatever they wanted to do with me. I let that happen, but I now realize my mom was comfortable with it. I got over that and stopped letting it happen because of the aunties and therapy. Not my proudest moment, but I broke my phone after listening to all her audios.
My train of thought ended up the same: I am so, so thankful I met hubby, and the only thing that matters is that we have each other. Hubby and baby and the twins are the only things that kept me alive these days. They are my world. Still, I was/am? dealing with urges to hurt myself. It’s alright when I am with the baby, it’s alright when I am with hubby, but night time and the moment I open my eyes in the morning… it has been tough. My mom put me in a very bad place. I let her put me in a very bad place again, but it will be the last time. She won’t take the good from me. No way. Hubby says she’s trying to isolate me and he might be right but she won’t get it.
Hubby says I should talk with my dad. I’ve been very distant with him lately, and I know he can feel it. I want to talk with him too about this, but I don’t even know what to say. I miss the aunties, I’ve been distant with them too. Last weekend, hubby and I went out to eat with one of them (the auntie that wrote the text when I told them I’m pregnant) and her husband. It was nice, we had fun. I’m telling them it is two girls this week. I didn’t want to tell them before because I am really scared about my babies. They are a bit smaller than they should be, and even if they are just supposed to be small babies, it worries me, it is not good for twins. Also, they suspect baby B has a heart condition :( I told this to the auntie, she’s the only one of the group that knows about all the difficulties of my pregnancy, and it helps a lot that she knows. I can’t help to be worried, but I can be positive and happy and excited for them. I have to be positive and happy and excited for them. I know the love aunties will give them even in my womb is much needed now. And hubby and I are doing and will do whatever it takes to keep them safe.
So, I said fuckyoumom and changed my mood, Hubby was worried because we really don’t have ANYTHING for the twins, and we are also in the process of moving. He had tried to convinced me to start looking for stuff to clear my mind but I wasn’t in the mood. Well, we finally started to look for cribs now (very difficult task tbh) and we bought their first onesies :) I’m letting the aunties shop for them too now (they’ve been insisting a lot lol) and it is very funny when they start sending pictures of plushies or toys or clothes (I love them because they keep thinking about the big sister). They are still trying to win points to be the godmothers lmao. I called grauntie last week and apologized for not being so communicative lately, and she started to come over again during the mornings, she’s been helping me with house shores and with my feelings. This has also helped hubby a lot because he was worried I was home alone. I cried so much with grauntie about my mom, and she showed me some of her Facebook posts. I just wish she would stop posting baby’s pictures. Grauntie also encouraged me to talk to my dad. And we went out to look for baby stuff together. She also knows about my pregnancy problems, but she’s confident we all will be alright.
The most important thing of all: we told baby she’s going to be a big sister :) She believed my belly was growing because I ate a watermelon seed lol If you want to know her reaction, I’ll make another post about it because I don’t want to mix it with all the shit above.
We ended up having a late Mother’s Day (also a pretext to be close to each other) the next Sunday after the actual day. It was nice and it cheered me up. It was a surprise from hubby.
My car is all fixed now and bills were sent to the beast family but they haven’t paid. We have the RO but the idea of them still scares me a bit from time to time. We’ve been calm these days at home but we have been going to visit the other house from time to time to get used to it. We’ve been planning where to place our furniture and how to decorate just to clear our minds. Hubby said maybe we will be able to start moving in a week and a half or two complete weeks. Yup, we’re moving even if we only have our bed there. I have mixed feelings about it but I know it’s for the best.
What his family and my mom don’t realize is that their bullshit only makes hubby and me stronger as a couple. He relies on me and I rely on him, we don’t fall. We always come to the same conclusion that we are simply meant to be together and for our kids. I can feel how our love and respect to each other grows stronger. And I am holding tight to this. As I said before, the only feeling I can really trust right now is my love for my little (and growing) family. The love they give me is something I have never doubt, not even in my darkest moments. I still have urges from time to time, I feel anxious and sometimes I can’t sleep as right now but all this love keeps me sane within my not so sane moments. I’m alright, I’m getting better (also yes, I’m going to therapy and having more sessions than usual).
I know I always say this but I can’t be thankful enough for hubby… You know? Hubby always says that I saved him, but I believe it is the opposite.
We’re going to be alright. I have always known that.
And I’m back hehe

Hello, everyone! I know it’s been a while. Being completely honest with you, I am not okay… well, I’m feeling better now. I’ve been feeling horrible, hella anxious, and, yeah, depressed. I don’t even know how to start this post or how to explain what has happened. Maybe it’s really nothing, but it took a toll on my mental health.
Thank you for all your comments and messages. For real, thank you for your concern. It wasn’t my intention to worry you all, but yeah, I wasn’t having a great time. I’m still fighting against my own demons, but it’s all better now. So, thank you, really. I appreciate it so much. I wish we all could go out for a coffee in real life or something.
I’ll let you know what has happened.
A lot of things happened around Mother’s Day, and it brought up old feelings and bad impulses against myself that I had left long in the past. There was a day when I simply didn’t want to exist anymore, to say it kindly. I know my hormones are not being helpful, and the only feeling I can trust right now is my love for hubby and baby and our upcoming little girls. I honestly don’t know what I would do without them. They are my entire world and universe. They simply save me. And I need to be strong for these babies, they are not doing so well. Maybe that’s also part of what made me feel so down like this.
I was already feeling down a few days before Mother’s Day and didn’t feel like celebrating. I know my mom had betrayed me and done unforgivable things up to that point, but I couldn’t help but feel sad because… well, I no longer have a mom. I asked the aunties and grauntie not to acknowledge the day for me, and they understood. Grauntie did call me early in the morning, and it made me sob hard, we talked for about an hour, so go figure. Hubby and I got her a big gift to show our appreciation and gratitude because he says she has also stood as a mother figure for him during these chaotic months. Oh, yea, grauntie is a great woman, and she laughed so much about her nickname, btw, she loves it. Baby calls her that now, well “grantie.” Aunties started saying happy mother’s day the next day lol.
Anyway, hubby didn’t let the day pass for me. He brought me breakfast in bed, he cooked all day, and since we decided to stay home, he brought healthy junk food (approved by my doctors, he made sure about that) for us to stay in bed, or on the couch, watching movies, Bluey, and a marathon of my shitty show that he doesn’t like (but he enjoys in secret lol). He gave me some presents and flowers that baby picked herself. I don’t know when this man took the time to also help baby make a craft for me without me noticing. It was very cute. We decided to stay home, turn the lights off, and stay upstairs pretending we weren’t really there. We both couldn’t help but be concerned and a bit anxious about ILs showing up. We stayed locked upstairs just resting, snuggling, and cuddling.
I will try to summarize what happened when they showed up.

We ended up having a late Mother’s Day (also a pretext to be close to each other) the next Sunday after the actual day. It was nice and it cheered me up. It was a surprise from hubby.
My car is all fixed now and bills were sent to the beast family but they haven’t paid. We have the RO but the idea of them still scares me a bit from time to time. We’ve been calm these days at home but we have been going to visit the other house from time to time to get used to it. We’ve been planning where to place our furniture and how to decorate just to clear our minds. Hubby said maybe we will be able to start moving in a week and a half or two complete weeks. Yup, we’re moving even if we only have our bed there. I have mixed feelings about it but I know it’s for the best.
What his family and my mom don’t realize is that their bullshit only makes hubby and me stronger as a couple. He relies on me and I rely on him, we don’t fall. We always come to the same conclusion that we are simply meant to be together and for our kids. I can feel how our love and respect to each other grows stronger. And I am holding tight to this. As I said before, the only feeling I can really trust right now is my love for my little (and growing) family. The love they give me is something I have never doubt, not even in my darkest moments. I still have urges from time to time, I feel anxious and sometimes I can’t sleep as right now but all this love keeps me sane within my not so sane moments. I’m alright, I’m getting better (also yes, I’m going to therapy and having more sessions than usual).
I know I always say this but I can’t be thankful enough for hubby… You know? Hubby always says that I saved him, but I believe it is the opposite.
We’re going to be alright. I have always known that.
And I’m back hehe

The first thing that stood out was its excellent build quality. This sturdy pole extends up to 10 feet, making it perfect for reaching high ceilings and hard-to-reach spots.

From the top of my car to the underside of my boat, this product has been a game-changer. The extension pole allows me to reach almost any corner without straining myself, and the soft bristles clean effectively without scratching or damaging the surface. However, one thing I did notice is that the bristles can detach from the brush head quite easily, which could be a potential issue if not addressed. Despite this minor inconvenience, I would highly recommend this product for anyone who needs an efficient and effective way of cleaning hard-to-reach spaces. 🔗Truper Telescopic Steel Extension Polehttps://preview.redd.it/tvv6j0itva3d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4ffd985cb426632ddf80c9d3a9c5e6d5d63e56e7 I've been using the Truper 10549 Extension Pole for quite some time now, and I must say, it's been a game-changer. This steel extension pole is incredibly sturdy and reliable, making it perfect for painting or reaching high places. The EXTM-24 and EXTM-30 models are telescopic, allowing you to adjust the length to suit your needs. One of my favorite features is the threaded tip, which lets me attach paint rollers and masonry brushes with ease. The pole extends up to an impressive 9.8 feet, giving me enough reach to tackle any job. However, it can be a little heavy when fully extended, which might be a downside for some users.

This silver extendable pole has truly made my life easier when it comes to cleaning high and hard-to-reach areas. One of the standout features is its modular design. The pole can be easily assembled or disassembled, allowing me to adjust its length to fit any cleaning task at hand. Its versatility means I can extend it from a mere 6 feet all the way up to 30 feet, making it perfect for tackling high windows or ceilings with ease. The locking mechanisms on this pole add a sense of security that I've come to appreciate. They ensure the pole stays at the desired length, even when fully extended. This safety feature has given me peace of mind knowing that I won't have to worry about the pole collapsing unexpectedly while I'm using it. Another highlight is the ErgoTec locking cone. This allows me to securely attach cleaning and maintenance tools onto the pole itself, keeping them within reach and preventing unnecessary trips down a ladder. However, there are some minor drawbacks to this product. Firstly, the material used (anodized aluminium and nylon) makes the pole quite heavy, which can be tiring after extended periods of use. Secondly, while the locking mechanisms work well, they may require a bit of elbow grease to secure the pole firmly at specific lengths. In conclusion, the Unger Teleplus Modular Telescopic Extension Pole System Silver is definitely worth considering if you're looking to clean high and hard-to-reach areas safely and effectively. Its versatile design, coupled with the locking mechanisms and ErgoTec locking cone, make it a valuable addition to any cleaning toolkit. Just be prepared for some heftiness and a little extra effort when locking the pole at your desired length. 🔗Reach-A-Clean Telescopic Window Washing Kithttps://preview.redd.it/4xkox2cuva3d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8f2a41ce2adddc0969b771f6bd23ba7c07976718 I've been using this extendable window washing kit for a few weeks now, and I must say, it has made my life so much easier. The highlight for me was the 30-foot telescopic pole, which extends my reach to up to 36 feet. This was a game-changer when it came to cleaning my high windows and solar panels. The swivel squeegee head is also a great feature that makes reaching those tricky angles a breeze. Plus, the microfiber scrubber is incredibly effective at removing dirt and grime, and it's washable and reusable, which is great for the environment.

Overall, if you're in need of a reliable, extendable window washing tool, this product is definitely worth considering. 🔗4-8' Fiberglass Aluminum Extension Polehttps://preview.redd.it/ziyen0puva3d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0f1d6a26ad276f5b995992418a4271816cd93ebe I recently picked up the Mr. Longarm Fiberglass Aluminum Extension Pole, and it has quickly become an indispensable tool in my home improvement arsenal. Its 4-8-foot length makes it perfect for reaching high shelves, changing lightbulbs, and even harvesting fruit from my citrus trees. One of the things I appreciated most about this extension pole is its ease of use. The die-cast metal threaded end with Lok-thread prevents tools from loosening during use, ensuring a secure and stable connection. The fiberglass 1.25-inch handle tube and 1-inch aluminum slider tube provide ample strength and durability, while the rubberized hand grip ensures a comfortable grip, even when reaching for those high spots. The proven chuck and collet locking device provide a secure connection to various tools, making tasks like removing dead branches from tall trees or cleaning high windows a breeze. Plus, the fact that it's manufactured right here in the United States speaks to its quality and craftsmanship. However, one small drawback I encountered is that the extension pole can be a bit heavy and cumbersome when fully extended. This may not be an issue for everyone, but it's something to keep in mind if you're planning to use it for extended periods or in tight spaces. Overall, I'm incredibly happy with my purchase of the Mr. Longarm Fiberglass Aluminum Extension Pole. Its durability, versatility, and ease of use make it a must-have tool for anyone looking to tackle home improvement projects or extend their reach in various situations.

This nifty tool includes an extendable pole, reaching up to 6-24 feet, a soft scrub car wash brush, and a medium bristle brush, all of which have proven their worth in my daily chores. One of the standout features for me was the ability to extend the pole to reach high ceilings. I've been able to give my ceiling fans a thorough dusting without having to resort to a ladder, which not only saves time but also ensures a safer cleaning experience. The soft scrub brush is gentle enough to use on my car, leaving it spotless, and the medium bristle brush has been perfect for cleaning up spills on my patio. On the other hand, while the DocaPole offers great reach, it can be a bit unwieldy to handle at full extension. Additionally, I wish there were more variety in the brush types included in the kit. Despite these minor drawbacks, the Docazoo DocaPole 30 ft High Reach Brush Kit has been a game-changer for my cleaning routine, helping me take care of tasks that were previously out of reach. 🔗30-Foot Fruit Picker Twist-On Basket Tool with Padded Inserthttps://preview.redd.it/6udks6evva3d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=20861fda24502e4349b8f5c73edcb490b39b6897 I never thought I'd be able to pick fruits from my tall apple tree without needing a ladder. But then, the DocaPole Fruit Picker came into my life, changing how I harvest fruits. This amazing tool comes with a 7-30 feet extension pole, which makes reaching high branches a breeze. I especially love how easy it is to attach the fruit picking basket onto the pole. Unlike other tools that require ratcheting for every use, the DocaPole Fruit Picker only needs the basket collar to be tightened around the adapter provided before the first use. That's it! One of its standout features is the bruise-free padding within the fruit basket. It helps protect my apples and other fruits from getting bruised while I pick them, ensuring they stay fresh and ripe until I want to eat them. However, one thing that could be improved is the weight of the tool - it's a little heavier than I'd prefer. But overall, I'm incredibly satisfied with the DocaPole Fruit Picker. It's made my fruit-picking tasks so much simpler and enjoyable. 🔗Durable 4-Feet Aluminum Polehttps://preview.redd.it/wm62spuvva3d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=452638d6a2137616424f7913de8cf085100589e0 I recently got my hands on the Ettore REA-C-H 2-Section Pole, Gold and it's been a game-changer for my cleaning routine.

The razor-sharp 13-inch bi-directional blade combined with the sturdy, lightweight handle ensures precise cuts every time. The DocaPole also features a high-quality aluminum telescoping pole that can handle various attachments, making it versatile for different gardening needs. However, be prepared for some wobble when fully extended. It's a trade-off for its impressive reach. One highlight was how easy it was to assemble right out of the box. With the DocaPole Pruning Saw's 13-inch bi-directional cut and sharp 3X tooth design, trimming trees has become an effortless chore rather than a daunting one.

That's when I came across the DocaPole 7-30 Foot Extension Pole. This multi-purpose telescopic pole has been a game-changer for me, not just for window cleaning, but also for gutter cleaning and hanging lights. The first thing that stood out to me was its length. The 30-foot DocaPole is long enough to reach nearly any spot, yet collapses to a manageable size for safe storage. This makes it incredibly versatile and convenient to use. Another feature I appreciated was the dual-tip combo. The straight metal tip is perfect for heavy-duty tasks, while the attachable multi-angle hinge tip allows me to access those hard-to-reach areas. This has made cleaning my high windows a breeze. On the downside, some users have reported that the latches are difficult to press and that the pole tends to bow if fully extended. This may limit the pole's full potential, but I've still found it to be incredibly useful within its intended range. Overall, the DocaPole 7-30 Foot Extension Pole has been a game-changer for me. Its versatility, strength, and durability make it a must-have tool for anyone who needs help reaching high spots. 🔗Tough DocaPole Brush Cleaning Polehttps://preview.redd.it/9qoc6qfxva3d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e7338bd425ed3fbcc9c89a3975f5e300cfc3f4bb I recently had the pleasure of using the Docazoo DocaPole, and I must say, it has been quite the game-changer for my cleaning routine. This 6-24 foot extendable pole comes with a hard bristle brush that's perfect for tackling those hard-to-reach spots on my house siding, decks, and garages.

The DocaPole is lightweight and compact, which means it's easy to store when not in use and even easier to carry around when I need it. The rubber handle also means that I can use it comfortably for extended periods without my hands getting uncomfortable. However, there's a slight downside to this otherwise amazing product. The pole itself is quite thin, so applying too much pressure can lead to it bending or warping. This doesn't necessarily affect its cleaning performance, but it's something to keep in mind if you're planning on using it heavily. Overall, the Docazoo DocaPole has truly revolutionized my cleaning routine. Its portability, sturdiness, and versatile brush attachment make it a must-have tool for anyone looking to keep their house in tip-top shape. Despite its thin pole, I'm more than happy with its performance and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone in need of an effective extension pole for their cleaning needs. 🔗Pro Pole 3204 Extension Polehttps://preview.redd.it/lkf2pqqxva3d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4e3a06f823603fb2c3970ebeb4778cfaadbb1405 I recently purchased the Mr. Longarm Pro Pole Extension Pole to help me with my various home improvement projects.

The external chuck and collet locking device make sure the tools stay in place, regardless of how much I extend the pole. However, there is one thing that could be improved – the size range. While the product is described as being between 2 to 4 ft, in reality, it only extends up to 3.9 ft, which may not be enough for some heavier-duty tasks. Overall, the Mr. Longarm Pro Pole Extension Pole has made my home improvement projects much more efficient and manageable. Its comfortable grip, robust material construction, and versatile threaded attachment options make it a solid investment. As long as you don't require an extended length of more than 3.9 ft, it's well worth the investment.
