To introduce myself, I’m 23F, from divorced parents, very close with my dad, but my mom has been very difficult to grow up with. Although I know she has great qualities and at times can be very loving, I have accepted through therapy that she is a narcissist. I was raised to be conditioned to caring for her every need, and basically had to parent her my whole life. She also has a huge pattern of choosing men over family. This is a story for another time, and I hope it’s okay to say on Reddit, but after her ex-husband sexually abused me at 15, she very publicly took his side in court and called me a lier. Ultimately, they pled guilty because of my strong testimony, but our relationship has never been the same, as expected. \nNow, this is absolutely not a sob story, I am a VERY happy person, and I am very thankful for my independence. I have also tried hard to build back a relationship with my mom, but ultimately decided to cut her out a year ago. Now that you have some context, onto the situation. During this last year, I learned that she had landed a huge role on reality tv. I don’t want to say too much about it in case mine or my mom’s identify is easily found. They have been filming for a few months. During this time my mom has tried to contact me a lot, which I’m assuming is for the show. My cousins and extended family have been so excited to be on it, but I’m terrified for myself and for my loved ones that I know she spreads awful lies about, like my sweet dad. \nI guess I’m half coming on here to vent, half asking for advice, even though I’m not sure if I’m asking the right questions. I know they can’t film me without my permission, but I’m sure she can allude to stuff and talk about me. She even changed her last name back to my dad’s last name for the show, which scares me even more that my story will be on there and I will be easily found. I really don’t want the public to know all about the worst year of my life, and I especially don’t want my friends and family to know all about it too. Especially because I’ve heard her side of the story. In her side of the story, she’s the saint and I’m the lying child. \nIs there anything more I can do to protect myself here? My personal accounts are private but I’ve been trying to get my business account more popular and I can’t do that if I change it to private. The show comes out later this year and I want to make sure I’m prepared for the shitshow. Does anyone have any words of wisdom? It is MUCH appreciated.

[ { "from": "human", "value": "ncle sent me naked photos// advice? So here’s the story. When I was 17 my uncle started messaging me online and responding to my photos, he’d send me fire emojis and heart eyes.

On my 18th birthday he told me he was so happy I was 18, but again, I thought nothing of it because my mom told me not to.

I skipped through the Snapchat so quickly that I convinced myself I had imagined it. Then came the videos. Disgusting videos of him touching himself and moaning my name. I went to my mom and (not surprising considering my family) she didn’t believe me and said I would need proof before she believed me.\n\nI screenshotted all of the photos he sent to me that very night and showed my mom, who made excuse after excuse about how somebody must have photoshopped the photo and was pretending to be my uncle.

[ { "from": "human", "value": "my abusive alcoholic father may be dying in six months, how can I rekindle a relationship with him and inherit his house? My dad sucks. He beat my mother growing up, left me with a pedophile (it ended the way you’d expect) and constantly villafied my mother growing up. I was raised by my mother and have lived with him a year out of my life. That year was split up between him losing custody because he started drinking again (he is and was a huge alcoholic), then me moving in with him in adulthood only for him to kick me out (in 95 degree weather without any warning whatsoever) in an attempt to manipulate me into letting him sell my parrot. I tried time and time again to have a legitimate relationship with the man but I’ve never been successful. \n\nNow, I don’t hate people because they’re alcoholics. It’s a tough addiction And I applaud anyone who tries to get over it. My father, however, is a mean drunk. Very mean. He punches holes in the walls, disowns me and reowns me, tells blatant lies about my past and tries to guilt me into feeling sorry for him. \n\nAfter not speaking to him for a year, I’ve just heard that he may be in liver failure. He has two houses, one on mortgage and another he owns outright. I would like to inherit them because owning a house would be a huge step up in my life at my age (22). \n\nMy father supposedly has narcissistic personality disorder, though I’m not sure if that’s diagnosed or not. If it isn’t, he definitely shows symptoms. Here’s my request: \n\nHow can I contact him again and rekindle a relationship without him being suspicious? I’m not the manipulative type most of the time and already feel guilty considering doing this. My concern is that I’m sure my dad would put something in a Will saying I don’t get anything. I’d like to be on his good side. At this point he’s ruined my life once and tried to twice, and beyond the requisite “he’s my father” I don’t care all that much about him. I don’t want him to die, but if he is going to, I don’t want to miss out on an opportunity to get a house.\n\n\nEdit: so I’ve been talking to the girlfriend. He’s gone batshit, more so than I thought. He’s drinking even more than before, trying to start fights with the other roommate, and then calling the police on him when he doesn’t do anything. He’s told the girlfriend she’s not getting anything because she spoke to my mother (not even told my mother, just spoke to her). \n\nI’ve sent a message about him being sick, but deleted it before he received it (checkmark wasn’t filled in). It said “delete for you” though so I’m worried he’s seen it. If he does and flips out even more at the girlfriend I’m not sure what I should do.\n\nEdit #2: I’ve decided not to contact him.\n\nI have Aspergers. For those of you who think I’m evil I know that sounds like a dumbass excuse but I have a reason for telling you this. As much as you may think I’m a liar, I have never intentionally manipulated anyone in my adult life. I’ve always tried to be kind to the people I like and nice to those who hurt me. I came on hoping people who knew better could tell me how to get my dad to forgive me for whatever he thinks I’ve done and begin to value me again. Many of you delivered on just that or offered other advice on the matter. I thank you all, but I don’t believe I am mentally capable of pulling this off. \n\n My social ineptitude was showing because I didn’t know that this post would upset so many people. I know now that it’s upsetting to many of you, though I’m not sure I understand why. I’ve seen so many people lie to each other about how they felt about others then hurt them, I never intended to hurt my father in the scheme I had. If my plan necessitated a “Ha-ha! Gotcha!” Moment or a piece of revenge, I’d never have considered it. To me, it meant he died happy and I got something out of it too. Definitely not selfless, definitely the most sleazy thing I’ve ever considered doing, but not something I thought would get me sent hate mail. \n\nI will admit that I still don’t feel as guilty for having wanted to do this as many of you expect me to. I don’t understand why it makes me a terrible person. I thought feigning interests and making people like you was commonplace, even if I’ve never tried it. I feel guilty for considering lying, but I feel guilty for telling coworkers I have plans when they ask me to cover their shift. I understand death and him being my father adds another factor, but I don’t get how it turns it from unethical to “fuck you”. I wasn’t trying to screw him over and didn’t see that as a possibility.\n\nMaybe it’s because I never got to have the cliche father/daughter relationship. I think all of you are reading this as a person trying to do this to their dad, not the sort of relationship I have with him. I found that most people who said they have a parent with NPD were rooting for me. \n\nI have confirmation that he is not senile. My father is 50 with no known history of dementia in the family. I spoke to him a year ago last time he disowned me and he was fine mentally, save for having suddenly decided that he hated me. \n“He’s gone batshit” just means his drunken antics have increased. He isn’t doing anything to make me think he’s gone insane so much as he’s pissed at the world and lashing out at everyone around him. I spoke to his girlfriend and she confirmed he’s coherent, just drunk and acting the way he does when he’s drunk and has no one else to attack. If I thought for a second he was senile I’d have taken much more issue with lying to him. \n\nThat said, many of you were asking why I wanted the houses if there was so much baggage with my dad. I will be honest and say that I struggle with adult life despite doing well at school. I’m 22 and I don’t have many of the skills I should at my age. I don’t have a credit score and every attempt to get one has been thwarted. I don’t see myself ever being successful enough at life to get a house of my own unless I got lucky. I saw this as my only chance to own a home, even if I sold the mortgaged one and bought a smaller home elsewhere. It would be difficult to figure out but I have a relative who does real estate who could’ve helped me. Maybe I’d have had to live with it the rest of my life, but I might be living a much better life if I had. \n\n\nTLDR; I was asking how to get my father (who disowned me because of his NPD) to like me again so I had a chance of getting an inheritance. I have decided not to contact him due in part to my belief that I don’t have the social skills to do such a thing and because I didn’t understand the social implications of posting this.\n\n\nFINAL UPDATE: thank you to everyone who was understanding. \n\nIt’s come out that my father was lying.

Fast forward a month to our first ultrasound and we found out she was pregnant with twins, however, both children were dead and the miscarriage followed about two weeks afterward. This was a heavy hit to us. Even though it was early in the relationship, it was a welcomed pregnancy. She even got engraved rings with the names of our would-be children and wears them daily.\n\nSince then we have cried over it frequently and are constantly reminded of the children we lost as her sister is pregnant and entering her third trimester.\n\nWith Mother’s Day coming, I was wondering if she would feel left out by me not recognizing her as a mother. I tell her often that she will always be the mother of my children, even if they’re no longer with us.\n\nWould it be inappropriate, insensitive or otherwise a bad idea to recognize her for Mother’s Day?\n\nedit: it may be worth mentioning that neither of us have children other than our two that passed.\n\nadditionally, I have bought Mother’s Day gifts for her mother and mine.\n\nUpdate: Thank you to everyone for the kind sentiments and advice.

I also have the added perspective of being on the other side of the room in psychology. 1. This is going to sound utterly fucking terrible. But it’s true. It’s not your responsibility to keep her from offing herself. If you haven’t heard that from any of your MH people - find better ones, if you can. You’re human. You’re presumably as normal and well adjusted as any of the rest of us. You’re going to care. But she is very much her own person, and whether or not she hurts or offs herself is a decision for her to make. It’s not one you can make for her. She needs help. And not the kind of help you’re equipped to give her. What she is doing is born of a need for attention and a deep fear of abandonment. There’s a book on BPD that’s a classic - and the title explains the concept. “I hate you, don’t leave me.” And for BPD, much like narcissism, the “leaving,” part is secondary to the former. She’s fine with hurting you. She’s fine with hurting herself. So long as you stay. And that’s really the thing. People don’t change unless they have to. Otherwise they only become more themselves - you’re an addict. Hey same. We know that better than most - whether we can elucidate it or not. We had to change. Most people don’t. All that for perspective. 2. Lawyer. File for divorce. Legal Aid or your local equivalent if you can’t afford to hire one. Meanest one you can find. The lawyer is going to tell you to cut off communication with her and have her go through them. Listen to them. If she persists, keep receipts. Get everything you can in writing with her, even texts. Keep your head when interacting with her. She will try to make you look bad - she has already. Don’t help. If she keeps showing up and being violent or similar - talk to your lawyer about how viable a protective order would be. They’re not perfect. But it’s something and it’s a potential. 3. For you specifically - keep your sponsor in the loop. Also make sure you’re having the space of therapy and your MD office visits. It’s going to be a long, hard process, and you need to keep yourself going and as sober as you can be. 4. I know what sub this is and all - but ethically is going to be the better choice long term. Being petty, vindictive, or otherwise unethical is only going to fuck you in the long term. 5. Do the kind of shit you’re doing. Irl, online, whatever works. Reach out and cultivate people who actually give a shit about you - because you prob have been very isolated during all this. You need community. That will make it…maybe not easy, but lighter to bear. And it’ll get you out of the echo chamber of abuse and conflict and your investment in this person. When a person is the only one you’ve really spent a significant amount of time around for a decent time; you’re going to care more. It’s how we’re wired - and BPD and NPD weaponize that through isolation. It’s how abuse is so effective. 6. Take some time to sit with it all, have a come to Jesus with yourself, and realize that none of this is your fault. I know it sounds fucking trite. But it is true. You didn’t ask for any of this. You asked for someone to give a shit. You got a person who gave a shit only for themselves. You were lied to. You were misled. You did not enter into that relationship with all the pieces of the puzzle you really needed. So fuck her. Because she is not the person she represented herself to be. You fell in love with the performance - the act. The persona she used. Not the person herself. And that’s not your fault. The person you married, buried deep down in there - is effectively a stranger to you. The only interaction you have with that person is the conflict and the abuse - used to protect that person. They can’t be vulnerable enough to really be anything else. Not unless they put in a significant amount of work. And people like you and I - we know the value of putting in the work to be less shit than we were yesterday. She chose the other way. To be worse. You don’t need to be unethical. She’s in a hell of her own making every day, digging herself deeper. Nothing you can do can compete with that. So find a way to leave. Realize it’s not your fault and not your job to fix - even if you could. Keep yourself together, and keep doing what you’re doing - move forward. Just with this. It’s nothing you haven’t done. Because the environment set up by narcissistic and borderline abuse works on the addiction pathways in the brain. It is cultivating an addiction to the person and the relationship dynamic. That’s why it needs isolation. And you fight addiction every day anyway. That’s all this is too." } ]

The police did come by and check but she wasn’t here. That’s all I can really do for now. There hasn’t been any missing persons reports that I know of. \n\nYeah. I know title sounds like clickbait but I promise it’s not. \n\nSo a few weeks ago, on new year’s day, I got home the same time my neighbor did. Later that night when I was taking my dog out I saw her boyfriend come in and get into the elevator. \n\nThat same night there was a lot of arguing and it stopped eventually so I assumed they sorted it out. I then fell asleep and woke up the next morning to the girl (my neighbor) crying in the hallway. I didn’t think much of it, she was leaving for work and I thought she was just crying because of the argument with her boyfriend the night before.\n\nA few days went by and I noticed that his car was still here, but I hadn’t seen him leave. That’s when I started getting a little suspicious. Fast forward to last wednesday my neighbor (the girl in question) started moving out of her apartment. While she was moving she had the door open and there was an absolute horrid stench coming from her apartment and filling the hallway. I’ve genuinely never smelled anything like it. And then on friday of last week, my roommate was in the elevator with her and apparently she was talking to herself and mumbling? weird but ok. \n\nThen last night there was a trail of a weird brown-ish liquid coming from her apartment to the elevator. There was a puddle of it in the elevator and it smelled like shit along with what looked like suitcase wheels going through it? I decided to call crime check and they told me I wasn’t the first one to call about it. ???? wtf? and then literally just tonight I found a grocery bag with clothes and some type of wire/ cord in it on the stairs. I also noticed that the boyfriend’s car was gone yesterday as well. \n\nI’m really confused and concerned. Maybe I just watch too much crime stuff so I can’t help but think she killed her boyfriend. I’m sure there’s probably a logical explanation for it all but with all the factors combined i can’t help but assume the worst. I would call for a welfare check but the problem is, shes only been here between 5-7pm at night. she gets her things and then leaves for the night and doesn’t come back until the next night. Is there anything else I can really do? Our landlord/ property management company knows about this as well. Apparently other tenants on our floor have complained.\n\nETA- Todays date is 1/23/24. I’ll update in the morning and I will update when I get more info. \n\nEdit: Bag of clothes and cord/wire here https://www.reddit.com/u/SpacelessMinds/s/GNoj3HG8rL\n\nWeird liquid found in elevator here https://www.reddit.com/u/SpacelessMinds/s/0K5zutpiTN\n\n**Edit 2- Apparently my roommate says the bag of clothes and the wire/cord have been in the stairwell for the last week. I took the stairs a few days ago when the stench was bad and didn’t notice anything. It is possible I missed it as it was in the corner. My roommate assumed it was from a homeless person. But in order to get into the stairwell you have to input a code that only the tenants know. She could still be right. Once you reach the second story of the stairwell, the walls open to a balcony. It’s possible a homeless person just threw it up there. I find it very unlikely though considering the bag was not tied and I found it in the corner perfectly. \n\n***Edit 3- Crime Check is my city’s non-emergency line. So yes I’ve called non emergency. \n\n****Edit 4- Called the police this morning before going to work and explained everything to them. I gave them the girls name and car info.

Raising a teenager will definitely be a challenge but one that I'm happy to accept if it means she doesn't have to go through what I went through when I was her age. \n\nFor the people that said to call CPS or to get legally custody of her, there's no point. In my country a 16 year old isn't considered a minor anymore. Which means she can legally live with anyone she chooses without parental consent. And as far as adopting her or getting legal custody, I'm not her dad. I wouldn't pretend to be. I'll just take care of her till she wants to or is ready to move out. \n\nI really hope that both of them reconnect. But my fiancee isn't welcome at my house anymore. I don't want her in my life. I haven't told my fiancee that her daughter is going to be living with me. If her daughter chooses to tell her herself that's her choice. I'm not going to force her to reconnect or keep in touch with her mother. \n\nI appreciate everyone's advice on this. I never thought Reddit would be this helpful. \n\n***ORIGINAL POST***\n\nI've been with my fiancee for 4 years. I'm 30 and she's 39. She has a 16 year old daughter. \n\nThey moved in with me after we've been together for about 6 months. I never really got involved with the parenting of her daughter. It wasn't my place and I never had kids so I don't have any experience especially with teenagers. \n\nTwo years ago I caught her daughter with another girl when I came home from work. She begged me not to tell her mom so I didn't. It's not my place to discuss her sexuality. \n\nYesterday her daughter came home from school with a girl and came out to her mom. She flew into this rage and started cussing and calling her daughter names. And then she kicked her out and told her not to come back till she's \"normal\".\n\nMy fiancee is very Christian. So to her being gay is a sin. I tried to reason with her but she doesn't care. She doesn't want to see her daughter again. \n\nHer daughter went to stay with her girlfriend and her parents. I've been in contact with her and told her I'd try to persuade her mom to let her back in. But I don't see that happening. \n\nI don't know what to do. I'm honestly disgusted with the way she reacted. I don't want her daughter to be homeless. She's a good kid and our relationship has been pretty good. \n\nAny advice would be much appreciated. And I apologize for any grammar errors English isn't my first language." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "You're a good man for what you did in that update.

[ { "from": "human", "value": "My boyfriend says I smell down there. So I 25f have been dating my boyfriend 22m for quite awhile now. I would consider us fairly serious as we’re having a child together. Last month we had a lot of issues we had to work through due to infidelity on his end with several other women. After days of tear filled fights he finally informed me that the only reason he slept with other women was because I “don’t smell right” down there.\n\nHe said not only can he smell it when we’re having sex, but sometimes when he’s cuddling me or walking behind me. He didn’t specify what kind of smell. Just that it’s bad. \n\nThis has made me really insecure obviously. I’ve never had anyone tell me this in my life and I’ve never noticed it. I started switching up hygiene routines, and saw my OB. I’m not on any medications, I drink so much water, I shower daily and wash with a mild unscented soap. Always in clean underwear and clothes. I don’t drink or smoke, my diet is clean. I’ve taken it as far as washing with water (peri bottle) after I go to the bathroom every time. I’ve smelt myself so many times and I smell like nothing? Just like the rest of my skin smells?? Yesterday he told me I haven’t done anything to fix yet I feel like I have to be the most hygienic person I know at this point Am I just used to it?? What else can I do to improve my smell??? He won’t even touch me anymore it’s really making me insecure. Especially after everything that happened, and with a baby on the way, I’m so desperate to reconnect with him. \n\nTLDR; My boyfriend says I stink. How do i fix it?\n\nEdit: I don’t post on reddit i’m not sure how to post pictures, but to specify, his exact text said “ Look a couple of times when i went to fck you, your 🐱 smelt like not normal idk how to explain it. And it’s happened a couple of times okay. It’s just when it would smell it turned me off a lot. I never said anything because I didn’t want to hurt your feelings. But I wouldn’t lie to you about something like this. There’s even been times in public when you stand up and i’m sitting down and i can tell like when you got a little wet or something. Sometimes I lay on your butt. Or I’ll be walking behind you and I can smell it and idk how to explain it. I can just tell you don’t wash good down there.” I started doubling down on my hygiene after this (about a month ago) and then this saturday he told me “Even after I told you that I had a problem with our sex life you still have done little to change it. You’ve yet to figure out what’s the cause of the problems I was telling you about.” I obviously was not expecting these responses from yall. I was in a physically abusive relationship for 3 years before I met him. I guess this stuff seems minor in comparison to what I went through so the thought that I was being gaslight never even crossed my mind.\n\nEdit 2: Almost 5 months pregnant. Found out about the cheating 4 months in.\n\nUpdate: For those of you that were waiting, I don’t stink. Friends & OB confirmed there’s nothing wrong with the way i smell. In fact, I realized today the truth is he just doesn’t like me. This morning (after having a really good week together) he randomly blew up on me yelling at me that i’m insufferable and annoying (because i forgot my ID on the way to the bank) and when i started crying because my feelings were hurt he made fun of me. The truth is everyone was right. He simply does not like me as a person anymore and is taking it out on me. I was just too dumb to realize it sooner. Thank you to everyone who commented with advice. \n\nUpdate: We broke up. He gave me an STD and then walked out on me and the baby to get back together with his ex. Now I’m all alone.

This is a tactic of abuse and it's completely reprehensible given how much damage and hurt he's caused you. Imagine what those cortisol hormones are doing to your baby as you grieve the damage he's caused this relationship and then to top it all off, his greatest magic trick is placing the blame back squarely on your shoulders.
