How can I get them to decide to not purchase without making it obvious it's coming from me? Am willing to do long-term behind-the-scenes unethical work to make them not want to stay.\n\nThey park 8 cars in front of their house every day and make it difficult for other neighbors and the trash truck to get through our older, narrow street.\n\nOnly the husband leaves the house long enough to work, and he works seasonally so he's done for the winter now. All other cars only leave long enough to go to a grocery store or drop a kid at school and pick them up. It's possible one of them works from home, but I don't think so. One of the adults (we call him Deadbeat) sits in his car in front of the house for hours a day. Some mornings at 6 am I'll come out to start my car and he'll be sitting in his already. He has a baby and a baby-momma and they come and go occasionally but he never goes to work.\n\nTried to be friendly when they moved in, dropped off a nice welcome to the neighborhood basket at their door and their response was \"we're private people\" \"we don't want to talk to neighbors\".\n\nFive cop cars showed up a few weeks ago and put the husband in cuffs and walked him to one of their cars, then he was fighting them in the car. I watched him and the wife fight in the driveway a few days ago and she went inside and locked the door and he kept kicking the door until she let him in.\n\nThey've put work into the yards to make them look nice but I'm pretty sure the rental company is paying for it. Somewhere between 7 -10 people live there, 6 are adults I think.\n\nIt's mostly the cars that are driving me mad. The last family that lived there stayed 5 years on a rental agreement that gave them the right to buy after a few years. They chose not to buy because they got divorced and moved. House was empty for a year because they wanted too much $ for it. Now these guys are here and we hate them.

[ { "from": "human", "value": "My mom just left us and I don’t know what to do. So the last 24 hours has been rough. My mother just packed her things and left. The only reason I was aware is cause during my lunch break (I work from home at the moment) I caught her packing. I thought her and my dad were going on a trip so I asked where are they going. She just lied and told me she’s not going anywhere. I clearly could see the suitcase she was packing and told her I can see what she is doing. At that point she closed the door and I was in shock so I went back to my workplace trying to process what I should do next. She eventually told my sister she was leaving to my aunt’s home which is located in another state for the next 2 weeks. Honestly I wanted to tell her to stay but thought she might need some space because of an argument she had with my dad 3 weeks ago. So I didn’t even ask any questions and she left in an Uber. My siblings and I were all shocked since this came out of nowhere and she typically lets us know if she plans on seeing her sister. And we didn’t even know how we should break the news to dad.\n\nCome Saturday morning we find out she did not go with my aunt. We were frantic. We reached out to all her friends and her side of the family only to find out no one knew where she went. She must have turned off her phone because it would go straight to voice mail. It was one of the worst experiences of my life, not knowing if my mother was safe or where she was in the world. \n\nEventually a friend of hers was able to get in contact with her and let us know she was in a hotel and safe but that was all the information my mother was giving her. We still don’t know where she is or even if she even plans on coming back. I feel awful because my gut told me to ask her to stay and I’m hurt because I feel like she abandoned her family. I’m 25F, with 4 siblings, 21F, 19F, 12F and 10M. So far the 2 younger ones believe she’s with my aunt. My\nMother may not come back. I don’t know how to explain the situation to them. Yes they’re kids but the are not oblivious. They are already wondering why our mother hasn’t called. It’s not something I’ve discussed with my father cause he shut down once he heard she was okay BUT didn’t want to talk to us. I need some advice on what I can do to help my family.\n\nUpdate: thank you everyone for your kind words and just giving me a direction to head in. Right now we are keeping the kids distracted and luckily my Aunt was able to get in communication with my mother. So far she isn’t talking to us but from what my aunt has updated me on, it seems like my mom will be headed over there. It’s reassuring to know that my mom will be with someone she knows. Again thank you everyone for your advice!\n\nFINAL UPDATE: I just want to update this just in case someone passes through a similar situation. It’s been a little over 2 weeks since my mom has left and I was able to visit her at my aunts house for 2 days since she’s a few states away. We were able to talk and it turns out she was hiding a lot of stuff my dad had put her through. She finally reached her breaking point and did have a mental breakdown. She let me know her journey and honestly it’s heartbreaking. Turns out she’s been taking a lot of medication due to depression, anxiety and PTSD.\n\nShe’s done with her marriage. Which I understand. My dad isn’t a easy person to live with. My mom has been a stay at home mom for a long time so right now she wants to start working so she can try to get custody of the two little ones. Right now she’s still broken and struggling to stand up on her own two feet since she is trying to get off the medication.\n\nI have a long journey ahead of me and so does my family. I can only hope that one day I’ll be able to be with my mom again cause she means the world to me and it’s been so hard living without her. As of right now my dad isn’t aware she wants a divorce. She let me know that is a conversation they need to have and my mom just needs to figure out what to say. \n\nThank you everyone for your kind words." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Talk things though with your 21 year old and 19 year old sisters.

This past year he’s lost so much weight, he’s starting to look sick and it’s actually worrying my mom sister and I. The rest of our family will make comments about how much weight he’s lost.

Hi, I just want to know what you would do in this situation because I'm not sure what/how to message her and if I should.\n\nToday my salon called, I knew I had an upcoming appointment so I thought it was to confirm that - instead they surprised me by telling me my stylist had been let go. I have been with her since I was in college and had even followed her when she moved to this salon (where she has worked for a few years now), she's a talented, kind, high-level stylist so I am taken aback to say the least. I had literally just texted her two days ago to let her know I had changed my mind on what I wanted to do with my hair for our next appointment and all seemed fine.\n\nMy question is - how do I approach this with her? I have her phone number and I'm wonderings do I text her or wait for her to text me? When she moved salons a few years ago, she texted me to let me know which is the only reason I am considering waiting to hear from her.\n\nI am sure this is a hard time for her right now and I don't want to be insensitive by being concerned about my hair when she is out of a job, I'm not even worried about my hair, more just wondering what to do going forward. Like: Is she going to a new salon and can I follow her? Will she be out of work for the foreseeable future and have someone she recommends? My loyalty lies with her first and foremost. I just don't know how to approach this conversation respectfully and was wondering what you all would do." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "I’m a hairstylist of ten years so I’m hoping I can help shed some light here. Obviously I don’t know the specifics of your salon and stylist, but if she is as kind and talented as you say, this is what I think based on my experience in the industry. First, although the salon was extremely unprofessional by telling you that your stylist was let go, unfortunately this is not uncommon in our industry. There can be a lot of animosity when a stylist leaves a salon, whether it was by choice or if they got fired. The main reason for this is because the salon typically would want to retain all of that stylist’s clients and revenue. Before Covid, it was less common for us stylists who work in commission salons to contact our clients through our personal phones. Some salons would consider keeping a record of your clients phone numbers as “stealing business information”. During Covid that all changed when we weren’t able to operate and reached out to every client individually to cancel and reschedule appointments from home. This brings me to my second point of what usually happens when a stylist leaves a salon. Although your salon told you your stylist was “let go”, she could have very well just put in her two weeks notice. Commonly in our industry, putting in your two weeks notice usually results in immediate termination as the salon owner does not want you to have time to let your clients know where you will be going. That is why they reached out to you before they did. They are hoping to reschedule you with another stylist before she has time to let you know her plans, which she probably was planning on doing at your upcoming appointment. I would say it is about a 50/50 chance of working in a salon where you have a good experience quitting or an experience like I’ve described above. I’ve been in the above position and so have most of the stylists I know at some point. It’s more common in larger, more corporate salons. I would not hesitate to reach out to your stylist and just let her know that you would like to continue seeing her and when you’ll be able to reschedule your appointment! She probably would have been restricted from accessing her schedule at home, so she might just be trying to piece together what appointments she has upcoming." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "My best friend flew halfway across the country to visit my boyfriend alone? (Updated) This is an updated version with more details to a recent previous post I did.\n\nMy boyfriend (M19) and my best friend (F19) have been in the same friend group with me and a few others since this year, at the start of our freshman year of college. I started dating my boyfriend about a month into the school year, while I knew my best friend since the summer before. My boyfriend is from the California, while our college is in the Midwest. It is both of our first actual relationship.\n\nI found out about this trip through a casual comment dropped by my best friend in a group setting, and it immediately didn’t sit right with me. She hadn’t mentioned visiting before, and had already booked the plane tickets. Neither my boyfriend or best friend talked to me about it beforehand, either. I now learned that it was because of certain flier pointers my best friend’s mom had that she was able to get plane tickets, and thought to visit my boyfriend. It’s important to mention that my best friend has a preference towards women, but is still attracted to men, and does not have a big interest in sex.\n\nNow, these two hang out together outside of the friend group sometime. I never thought much of it, but I feel like the flight is too far. As I am typing this, it is her first day at his house. Yes, his house. She is staying with his family (who I have not met in person due to distance, but have met on one video call) for about ten days, meeting his friends, etc. They also plan to go camping, where they plan to sleep in the same tent together and drink. My best friend told me that he warned her that he is a VERY physically affectionate drunk. I have not seen him drunk and neither has she, but he has a history of drunk hookups before we started dating.\n\nI brought up some of these concerns earlier to both of them separately, and my best friend told me she saw him more as a sibling and would never to that to me or see him in that way. When I asked my boyfriend, he said that he doesn’t THINK he could ever see her that way and that they are better as friends, but then again said that he sees her more like a sibling. But, he has also made an off-handed comment about her breasts before, although I believe he was trying to complement her.\n\nI trust and believe both of them, but I just have an underlying feeling of weirdness about this whole thing. I’ve had extremely bad friend betrayals in the past, and I’m just afraid of it happening again. I truly doubt there is anything cheating going on, but the situation just seems a bit odd. I know how it looks, believe me.\n\nAlso, I was not able to fly out to see him this summer, so me going was not an option.

I first want to thank everyone who gave their advice. While some of it did sting to read (the ones calling me a shallow asshole) honestly, it needed to be said. I really do regret the way I worded some things in this post and I admit it was immature of me to only talk about her looks and not her health. I promise I am deeply concerned about her health as well, I admittedly was not in the best mood when I wrote this, as I was feeling very frustrated.\n\nAfter reading through some replies, I am definitely going to make sure at some point she sees a doctor. Reading a lot of these possible health conditions she might have scares me and I want to make sure we get that figured out as soon as possible.\n\nThe second thing is I take full responsibility I’m not doing my part with the healthy meals and exercise either. I would actually like to thank the comments mentioning that because it was something I did not even consider and needed to be made aware of. I am for sure going to take action and stop with the fast food because that is just as much my fault as it is hers. You guys are right, it is a team effort and I can’t expect her to eat healthy if I’m not willing to do the same. I also plan to step up and be more involved in the child care (watching the baby more so that she has time to exercise or just time for herself). It also helps that her mom is pretty involved too and I know she’d be more than happy to watch the baby for us too if we need it.\n\nThird, I just want to clarify that I have never (and will never) called my wife fat, told her that’s she’s repulsive, etc. I would never actually SAY these things to her, I know better than that and I would never want to hurt her. I have never mocked or ridiculed her for her weight.\n\nFourth, to the people saying that I don’t really love her or that I’m being abusive, I am going to have to respectfully disagree with you there. I admit I sounded really shallow in my post and like a complete ass and could definitely have worded it better, but I’d like to make clear that I absolutely love and am in love with my wife. Her wonderful personality hasn’t changed since getting married and she has gone above and beyond as a mother. I wouldn’t want anyone else to be the mother of my son. Aside from the weight issue, we honestly haven’t really had any other major problems in our marriage. We get along really well and enjoy each other’s company. I have no regrets marrying her, even with the weight gain. Of course I do hope she loses some weight but I’m in no way feeling regretful about getting married to her.\n\nAnd this brings me to my last point- I’m not going to divorce her. I saw a couple comments saying my marriage is destined to fail but I don’t think so. I’m not going to just throw in the towel that easy and walk out on our marriage and on our son. As I said earlier, I still love her very much and I wanna be there for her in sickness and in health. Yes we are religious too and we have both talked about and agreed on the fact that we would never divorce unless it was something TRULY worth divorcing over (abuse, drugs, infidelity, etc). \n\nAgain, thanks for the replies everyone and this has really led me to step back and consider my part in all of this too. I’m feeling more hopeful after reading these replies and think that I have some good starting points to go from here (seeing a doctor to make sure this isn’t a more serious issue for example being one of them). Thanks again everyone!\n\n*ORIGINAL POST*:\n\n22M here. My wife (also 22) and I both got married when we were 18. She used to be 125 pounds at 5’6. She was incredibly fit, had the most perfect body ever and even had abs. We had our beautiful son 2 years ago and she put on a ton of weight during her pregnancy. I know that obviously you’re supposed to put on weight when you’re pregnant but she put on way more than was normal. I thought maybe it would go away after the baby but it hasn’t. She just keeps gaining.\n\nShe is still 5’6 but now weighs 215 pounds. I know this sounds mean but she is HUGE. I don’t even recognize her anymore. I feel physically repulsed looking at her body and sex is awful now with her because I just can’t get turned on. I feel terrible even typing this out but it’s the truth. I haven’t really told her how I felt, but she knows she is big and has tried multiple times to lose weight. She always gives up after a couple weeks and goes back to her old ways.\n\nThe closest she ever got was losing 3 pounds. Not joking. Then she gave up and gained it back plus more. I still love her deeply, she is my wife and I love our family. But I can’t keep feeling like this in our marriage. How do I approach the topic of her weight with her without hurting her feelings? \n\nAnd by the way, I’m not even considering a divorce. That isn’t and will never be an option for me.

Find healthy activities that you can do together and/or as a family. Help with the preparation and cooking of healthy, balanced meals. Support her when she makes a step in the right direction. It will be difficult, but being there for her will help." } ]

They called back as soon as they got the voicemails I left and immediately started heading this way. I feel a lot better now that they are here. They called the police once they got here. They talked to them, I talked to them. All that we really did is tell them everything I said in the original post I made and showed them my texts with them. We don’t have much more information then that.\n\nMy grandpa called our dad and I think he actually spoke to one of the police officers. I don’t know what he said though, other than he still won’t tell anybody where they are. So we still have no idea what they’re doing or why they left.

[ { "from": "human", "value": "My (F22) boyfriend (M24) has gone through some sort of personality change and no one seems to acknowledge it. \nI understand how bizarre this situation sounds, but I honestly have no idea where else to go, at this point.\n\nSome background: \nI’ve been with my boyfriend for around 4 years. He is sweet and kind and extremely empathetic. Our families like each-other, and we had plans to get married before the pandemic. Just before march we decided to go on holiday abroad. Another couple joined us later. ( John= husband, Kelly =Wife) It was lovely and we spent most of the time hiking or swimming in the lake. I speak the local language so i did most of the talking. All 4 of us are complete urban legend and dark tourism enthusiasts, so we went into the city for a tour. I spent most of the time translating because the translator there was only half doing her job. The urban legends weren’t really anything special, it was things we’ve already read about so we decided to split from the group. Kelly and I saw a salon still open so we went to go check it out, whilst John and my boyfriend went to check out some old church and ruins (John’s an archaeologist). \nAfter our nails had dried, kelly called John to see whats up, because she had something like 10 missed calls from him. We had our phones on silent. John was panicking and basically speaking gibberish. Kelly told him to slow down and finally managed to get that my boyfriend had fallen and now he’s lost. We basically ran out of the salon and ran over to the church. John was in a panic and had called the local police of OUR hone country, instead of the country here, so i immediately dialled the local number and they told us that they’d already been contacted and they were on their way. They then instructed us to remain where we were together. John was with Kelly in the woods, so i called them back, but it was pitch black and i fell apparently exactly where my boyfriend had fallen. I bashed my head against something, presumably a rock and im fairly sure I had a mild concussion since i was pretty disoriented from there on. The emergency services found my bf completely fine. Uninjured. A bit confused but thats it. We got driven back and John calmed down, but he was still more shaken than my boyfriend. We said goodnight to them and decided to take it easy the next day. My boyfriend slept for over 24 hours, and i got seriously concerned and checked a few times to make sure he was still alive. I briefly woke him up and made him drink water. He went straight back to sleep and woke up later. \n\nMain: \n\nI noticed something off immediately. As soon as he woke up his entire personality was just off. Like down to the tiniest things. His pattern of speech, his eye movements, his posture. I asked him repeatedly if he’s feeling better. We went out for lunch and he called me Jarissa. This is not my name. John and Kelly cracked up and teased him. We never knew anyone called Jarissa. Im sure that it wasnt another women and he isnt cheating. I’m completely sure of that. He also ordered a meal with tuna. I didnt say anything, but John made a remark saying he must be trying new things or something like that. My boyfriend absolutely despises tuna. It was small things like that, in addition to being much colder and quieter than usual. He is usually very outgoing and warm. On the plane back, we were snuggled up and he asked me to tell him “stories”. So i did, but he interrupted me and said “no stories about us”. So i did. And his response was off, as if he was hearing new information for the first time but pretending to have known all along. And then i told a fake story about skiing (he cant ski) with his family and he was nodding along. I made the decision to get him checked out for memory loss or something as soon as we were back. I was sleeping in the car ride home, and woke up briefly to him having taken us somewhere completely different instead of home. So i raised my concerns right there and then and told him he needs to get checked out. He stated that this was our home, and pointed to a house. He took the keys and walked up to the house and of course it didnt work. I demanded to drive back this time. The ride was extremely awkward. He couldnt open his phone, because he had forgotten the passcode (thank god for face ID). I got a text and asked him to check it and he said “are you sure?”. This is what we normally do. We dont usually ask, we just check it for eachother. \n\nHe also slept an extremely long time too. I went to the GP (General Practitioner. Sort of a family doctor) with him and told him point blank he needed to get checked out. I explained the situation to the doctor and he did a basic check up. We got a call the next day and the GP assured me that everything was completely OK. His cognition was apparently completely fine, no sign of long term or short term memory loss, which i argued against vehemently, seeing as he couldnt even remember his fucking passcode. The GP said that it was entirely possible he had some stress from the flight, since he has a mild fear of flying. I asked for a second opinion and evaluation, and the second GO also said theres no sign of head injury or anything and advised against seeing a neurologist without him. I called his mother to see if we could stay over for a while and his mother was happy to have us. She noticed a few changes in his personality but didnt really say anything much, just assumed that he was trying new things. His previous aversion to tuna had completely changed. I spoke to her in private and i mentioned other things too such as the fact he sleeps for incredibly long hours now, upwards of 9 hours, and how ive caught him staring at me sleeping and rifling through my journal, in which i keep pictures and notes of significant events for me. I also mentioned his coldness, and how his style of fucking has also completely changed and his smile is different. And then i started crying. Seriously i have no idea what to do. No one believes that something is wrong, but there is something so wrong with him. Its like his whole personality has shifted to the left. I entertained the possibility that it was a concussion which had caused me to assume that it was his fault, when in reality it was i who had made changes , but i have physical evidence and also evidence from his family that he has changed.\n\nIn videos his voice has changed, too. He way he speaks has changed. Literally any help is appreciated, thanks.\n\nEdit: edited for general comprehension. Also, i didnt contact a neurologist because the GP had advised not to. He also refuses to go since the GP said everything is fine. This is over a year ago and the changes are still there. Its settled down a lot but he is no longer as outgoing or warm and does some thing where he stares at certain objects or people for too long and then looks in my general direction and back, robotically. He also talks in the third person occasionally and its seriously unnerving. For a while we slept in separate rooms because i was so creeped out by his behaviour change. Its like hes barely even human sometimes, i seriously have no other way to describe it. Like some lizard person or something, and it creeps the hell out of me. He speaks in his sleep, too and its not in english or any other language i know. But it isnt complete gibberish because there is a flow to it. This has continued on and was part of the reason i wanted to sleep separately for a while.\n\nI’ll definitely be going to a neurologist myself tomorrow and explaining it, but there is little else i can do if he refuses to come along. \n(Sub edit: my boyfriend shuts down conversation everytime when i ask him what happened. He nearly opened up one time and started with “there was a goat” and then stopped and refused to say anything else. Its so bizarre. How does a goat relate to this??)\n\nEdit 2: some of you seem to think im writing a horror story, so im making it abundantly clear right now: neither of us are religious or believe in ghosts, spirits or entities. I’m not stupid enough to do more than entertain that idea briefly. I am going to a neurologist tomorrow and going down the logical route rather than the “possessed by a demon” route.\n\n**Edit 3**\nI saw the doctor today on short notice, so the time slot was pretty small. My boyfriends mother agreed to go, as someone suggested bringing her along, and i showed her this post. I did most of the talking and the doctor seemed concerned. He said he will reference me to a neurologist but i need my boyfriend to come with me. Thats going to be the difficult part. If a doctor is expressing concern then i’m genuinely incredibly worried over the health of my boyfriend now. I was before, but now it seems serious, and i wasnt aware of the severity til yesterday. I have til 8pm tomorrow to get him to come, so any suggestions on exactly HOW to would be great.\n\n#Also, addressing the people calling this fake and paranormal; just write off all possibility of ghosts, right now. \n\nI dont believe in any of that. A goat is entirely possible because there were goats that lived in this area, but i seriously have no idea how that could link to him getting lost or why he stops talking there. He could have followed a goat and got himself lost? It doesn’t mean its paranormal, and i refuse to consider that seeing as there are a vast number of logical explanations.\n\nAlso, people telling me to break up with him: no.\n\n#Edit 4\n\nI convinced him to come to see a neurologist who specialises in brain injuries. Long story short; nothing. They scanned him, brought him in for psychological evaluation too. They tried telling me that perhaps there was something wrong with me, until i used video evidence. Today they did some blood work on him, since i mentioned swimming in lakes, and we’re expecting results maybe in a week or so. He’s going back tomorrow to see a psychiatrist, since there isnt anything obviously wrong in terms of injury to his brain. \n\nHe was sulky with me for a while, but we’ve just rescued a litter of kittens so that requires us to talk to one another.

[ { "from": "human", "value": "I (M15) was raped (M18) and four people (F16, M14, F17, M17) watched and did nothing. I’m going to start with why this scenario even happened.\n\nAll my life, I was super feminine. Not in the way I dressed or acted, it was my body. I’m frail and small, and I probably have more estrogen in my body than testosterone. Whenever I transferred schools or had a new teacher, the teacher would always think a girl in my class do my work for me because even my handwriting was feminine. I was assigned a pen pal in foreign language class, and that pen pal was going to come to my school the next semester for foreign exchange. The teacher wanted us to write to that person to get to know them before they came. That pen pal thought I was a girl until they asked, four letters later because they were “attracted to me.” My unisex name doesn’t help. Because of my femininity, people made fun of me for it. Harassed me constantly. Even my friends joke and call me their “girlfriend.” And a few days before the assault happened, I found out some boys had a sexual fantasy about me, especially cause at the time my hair was a bit longer, just touching my chin, and was dyed blue and purple. They thought because I had a feminine hairstyle means I’m asking for it. Apparently, a lot of the boys in my high school have trap fantasies. \n\nAnyway, you get the jist. Here’s what happened.\n\nI was at a friend’s 16th birthday party. I started talking to this guy (M18) and we were just slightly tipsy. I’m bicurious, so I thought I might as well explore my sexuality since he’s already getting handsy. Plus, I trusted him. He thought my femininity didn’t matter, and people are just creepy. We eventually were in the guest room, and to put it bluntly, he was jerking me off. That part was consensual. Everything was going okay until I heard snickers in the room. The room was completely dark, and you couldn’t see a thing. I thought it was nothing, and it was just the guy I was with. Then it happened again. It sounded like a female, two females. I tell the guy to stop, there’s someone else in the room. He didn’t respond. I yelled at him to stop, and kneed him in the face. At this point, I knew there were four people in the room but I didn’t know who, because there were only four voices that seemed familiar but I couldn’t quite put my finger on it. I tried to get my pants on and leave the room, but the guy pinned me down. I don’t remember exactly what he was whispering in my ear, but it was always along the lines of “stay still” or “were just gonna have some fun” and trust me, I was freaked out. I tried to do everything I could to get him off me, but he was stronger. He didn’t realize he was raping me, because he did everything he could to make me “feel good.” Surprise, just because you use lube doesn’t mean it won’t hurt them. And while I was crying and telling him to stop, those four people just watched. I think one even took a flash picture. After he was done, they left me there, door wide open and turned he lights on so if anyone walked in on me, they would think I’m some creep and kick me out. But, no one walked in. I was just laying there. After an hour or two, I got dressed and left the party.

You need to go to them and tell rhem exactly what happened. You were unconcensually touched by an 18 year old man. People you knew from school were in the room. Possible child pornography. Just because you're a guy, doesn't change anything. It's 2019, rape is not taken lightly. So, please, don't let this blow over. Get some help. You shouldn't have to face this alone. You might be scared to tell your parents, but let me tell you. You might think they'll react poorly, or not care. They will. Please trust me on that. So moral of my post is, don't go through this alone. It will get better. I promise. Even if you feel uncomfortable going to your parents or police first, go to the school guidance counselor.

[ { "from": "human", "value": "I had to block my special needs cousin today. TLDR: my cousin cyber stalked my female cousin, sister, and my sisters boyfriend. Tried to use me as a pawn to get to them. Crashed my baby shower knowing the would be there. And a whole mess of drama in between!\n\nHey all! Honestly, I feel like a huge asshole today. I am totally prepared to hear it, but I just need to hear a new perspective on the situation. This post will be pretty long because there is 4 years of history here. I apologize for any grammar mistakes ahead of time, I’m 8 months pregnant and am totally scatterbrained! Also apologizing in advance if the formatting is weird, I’m on mobile!\n\n\n\n\nSo I have a special needs cousin who is a few years younger than me. Let’s call him Randy. We aren’t blood related, he is my moms step brothers son. But we spent a good amount of time together growing up, and never saw him as less of a family member. My family moved out of state when I was 11, and that created some drama within our extended family. So I really haven’t spent much time with him face to face since we were kids.\n\n\nHis parents like taking turns between ignoring he has problems, and thinking his problems are way worse than they are. Which always frustrated me, because he never seemed to get the care he needed growing up. Considering that, he is pretty high functioning. He graduated high school, he worked at Walmart for a few years, and is now working at a high school cafeteria. He’s really good at video games and played guitar in a band. He seemed to be doing well after high school.\n\n\nBut several years ago his social crew probably fell apart, like most do after high school. And all he did was sit on his computer on social media for hours a day. Trying to connect and feel social with anyone. His parents didn’t do anything to enrich his life. They have always had marriage problems and always let those problems take priority over Randy. I truly believe he was neglected for most of his life, and especially his adult life. And that breaks my heart for him. I was probably one of the only people that talked to him on a semi consistent basis.\n\n\nFast forward to 2017. I’m getting married. Our family drama has been squashed and this is the first wedding of the generation for the family. I’m not one for big weddings, so we found a nice chapel in Vegas and had a fun reception dinner. Luckily we all live in the Southwest so everyone was able to attend, including Randy and his family. It was honestly a great time! \n\n\nBut this is when Randy reconnected with another cousin of ours. Let’s call her Tara. Tara is closer to Randys age, and they definitely spent more time together growing up.\n\n\nAnyway, our honeymoon is when things started to escalate with Randy. He finally got to meet my husband, really liked him, and somehow got his phone number. At first I thought it was really sweet. But then the text messages started. Almost constantly wanting to talk. We both got multiple messages a day. Including ‘hello?’ messages when we didn’t reply fast enough. Eventually we had to tell him we are on vacation, trying to enjoy our time together and that we will call him when we got home. I thought he was just excited to see everyone from the wedding, and excited to meet now family members. But this was a warning of what was to come.\n\n\nWhen we returned home from our honeymoon, things with Randy settled down for a while and our relationship was normal. But that was not the case for my cousin Tara.\n\n\nApparently since reconnecting at the wedding he started contacting her constantly. Constantly texting, calling her multiple times a day, and messaging her on all her social media platforms. It really freaked her out. It escalated to her receiving messages like ‘I can’t wait to hear your voice again’ and ‘you are so beautiful I can’t wait to see you again’ and other things that would be inappropriate to hear from your cousin. When she wouldn’t reply he would hound her will ‘hello? I can see you saw my messages’ and things like that. She was extremely uncomfortable, and ended up blocking him. That’s when he started reaching out to the rest of the family.\n\n\nMyself, my mom, dad, sister, brother, another cousin, Taras mom, my grandparents, my husband, my NEW MIL AND FIL, and ALL HER FRIENDS ON FACEBOOK (Like he literally went down the list) received messages from Randy asking about Tara and why she won’t talk to him anymore. I was the one of the only people to give it to him straight, and I told him he made her uncomfortable and what he did to make her feel that way. Because I don’t think he understood those kind of boundaries. But he didn’t stop.\n\n\nAt this point my Aunt, Taras mom, confronted Randy’s parents about his behavior. Because he crossed a line. And it BLEW UP. I mean full on family feud. Randy’s parents refused to believe he did anything wrong, refused to even talk to him about it. It definitely divided the family, most siding with Tara and my Aunt.\n\n\nOver the next few weeks more and more of my family ends up blocking him. And Randy realized I’m one of the few family members that still responds to him. But it’s always about Tara. I guess she had to change her number because of all of this. He was asking me to give him her number daily, asking me to message her for him, asking me to call her, asking me for my little sisters number so he can ask her about Tara. I remember after a long shift at work I had 16 texts from him about Tara, including ‘hello??’ and ‘have you read my message yet?’\n\n\nSomehow he then got my sisters phone number and was doing the same thing to her.\n\n\nIt got so bad that my husband had to tell him to stop, and that really upset Randy. We end up taking on the phone for 3 hours one night because I was DONE. I told him he was acting inappropriately, that what he was doing was harassment. I had to teach him what harassment was essentially. I told him that he couldn’t use me to relay information to anyone else, and that I would never give him anyone’s phone number. \n\n\nAt this point I was really starting to feel used and manipulated. He never even asked how I was doing, he didn’t care about anything going on in my life. I was all Tara. Have you heard from Tara today? Did you get her new number? Hello??? Did she respond to you? Have you texted her yet? I was just so fed up. I told him I was not going to discus anyone in our family at all. If he wanted to chat it was going to be about his life and my life only. At the end of the conversation he seemed to get it. He apologized and agreed we’d only discuss what was going on in our lives.\n\n\nWell I didn’t hear from Randy for about 6 months after that. Until his attention turned to my sister, let’s call her Annie. Annie and I are close in the way you can go three months without talking, then pick up exactly where we left off. We get along great and I love my sister. But we are not involved in our day to day lives and at this point lived in different cities.\n\n\nHe started texting me constantly about my sister. Asking me to ask her to unblock him. Asking about her work schedule. Asking me to give him her number. Asking about her friends and wanting their phone numbers. I squash this pretty quickly and tell him to stop. And he does, for a few months he goes quiet and we don’t hear from him other than holiday wishes.\n\n\nNow he wants us to watch him play his guitar. Ok cool sure. But he wants me to FaceTime him WITH my sister. I offer to watch him just me and my husband. No. Annie has to watch too. And this one goes on for MONTHS. At this point I’m so tired of trying to explain why she won’t talk him, tired of explaining why him hounding us is was wrong, so I ended up being more blunt with him. I told him Annie is creeped out and doesn’t want to talk to him. I tell him this, he wants to apologize, he wants her number, I refuse.\n\n\nHe stops talking to me for another 6 months.\n\n\nBut now Annie has a boyfriend. Somehow Randy finds out and is now obsessed with her boyfriend, we’ll call him Tanner. \n\n\nAt this point Randy figures he needs to warm me up a bit to talk to me. I finally get a ‘hi how are you?’ before he asks me to give him Tanners number, I refuse (I also don’t actually have his number) and tell him to stop asking me for other peoples information because I won’t give it to him. So instead, Randy messaged ALL of Tanners family members on Facebook trying to get information on him. I’m talking parents, grandparents, and cousins. They all ignore him because Annie gave them a heads up. But I still thinks it’s ridiculous that he goes so far to contact someone. And I truly don’t know what his intentions are.\n\n\nFast forward to Christmas 2020. Randy has been quiet, but we still exchange holiday wishes, and check in once and a while. Anyway on Christmas I am talking with our grandmother. She tells me that during the time he was obsessed with my cousin Tara, he was also harassing another girl he went to high school with. Same thing. Messaging ALL of he Facebook friends, reaching out to her parents and aunts and uncles. Messaging her all all platforms. It gets so bad she had to call the cops on him! My grandma also ‘gave me permission’ to block him completely because I guess literally everyone else in our family has. She says Tara is terrified to see him and refuses to go to family events because she is AFRAID HE WILL ASSULT HER IF HE GETS THE CHANCE. And I feel just so gross about all of it. On one hand I am completely disgusted with his behavior and totally want to cut ties too. But on the other, I feel so incredibly bad for him. How lonely he must be, and that I’ve really been the only person in our family to communicate with him for years. I’m sympathetic to his problems, and still like to think of him as my cute little cousin. He really wasn’t talking to me at that time, so I didn’t end up blocking him.\n\nBut at this point I’m also furious because what are his parents doing? Why aren’t they involved? How are they completely ignorant to the situation? They have been made aware plenty of times, by plenty of people, but they choose to do nothing.\n\n\nFast forward to February 2021. I’m pregnant and I’m having a virtual shower for the family. It’s a big deal because this is the first baby in our family in 15 years! My wonderful MIL planned it and sent out cute party boxes for those that RSVPd. Including Randy’s mom. \n\n\nFive days before the shower, Randy messages my MIL. \n‘I saw you sent something to my mom, what is it?’\n‘Oh it’s just some party favors for Dragonites baby shower’\n‘Am I invited?’\n\nMy MIL knows all the history and tells him no, it’s just for the women of the family. In reality I don’t really care for too much gendered stuff like that, and there were men who were invited, as well as Tara and my sister Annie. But I was not going to have my invited guests feel uncomfortable because of Randy. Even if it was virtual.\n\n\nHe then messages me separately. Asking if he can play a song for everyone. I tell him no. He asks if he can sign on for just a minute. I tell him no. He tries to guilt trip me by saying things like ‘I just want to see my family again.’ And I shut that down. I told him straight up that I know he just wanted to see Tara and Annie, and that would make them uncomfortable and it was not an appropriate time to try and reconnect. I told him it was disrespectful to use my baby shower as a way to connect with people who did not want to see him. I really didn’t want any drama, and I definitely didn’t want Tara to have to see him. He was insistent that he wouldn’t do anything inappropriate and just wanted to say hi. I told him that it wasn’t the time or place for that, and respectfully asked him not to join the meeting with his mom. I even offered that we could maybe have a call separately with other family members another time. He agreed and said he wouldn’t join the meeting.\n\n\nBut then he messages my MIL again, asking her in secret to allow him to be at the shower, allowing him to play a song. She said no and shut him down. But really? You are going to go behind my back like that? And bother my MIL? I was pissed!\n\n\nThen everyday leading up to my shower he is asking about a time and date to Zoom with Me, my husband, Annie and Tanner. The day of the shower I wake up to 3 messages about this zoom call with my sister. I tell him I’m overwhelmed by shower things and that we’d maybe plan it after a few days just to get him off my back. He agrees.\n\n\nMy shower goes off just fine, the games we planned were fun, and it was time to open presents. Then I hear Randy’s voice! ‘Hi everyone I just wanted to say hi and play you guys a song!’ I was so pissed! You can tell my sister and cousin were super uncomfortable! Luckily my MIL is awesome and shut that down pretty quickly. And he left the call after only a minute or two. But I felt so angry. So...violated in a way. I told him my boundaries and he chose not to respect that after claiming he understood.\n\n\nNot even 5 minutes after the shower was over, he calls me. Why I picked up? I don’t know. He asks me if anyone saw him say hello. Everyone did Randy. He asks me if anyone heard him playing his guitar in the other room. No Randy. He asks if the next day we can zoom with my sister and her boyfriend. I’m like I don’t know her schedule. I’m so mad I get him off the phone quick. He messages me about it 4 more times that night about it. I ignored all of them.\n\n\nHe then texts my husband. He wants to know what he thinks about the conversation he and I had after the shower. My husband flat out said ‘nobody heard you play guitar’ and that was the end of that.\n\n\nRandy then messages my MIL at MIDNIGHT. He’s upset. He thought it was supposed to be women only. He wants to know why he wasn’t invited. She ignores him and wakes up to a bunch of ????\n\n\nAt this point my husband is PISSED and lays into him kind of hard about messaging me and his mom too much. Randy apologized and went silent for a few days.\n\n\nBut only for a few days until he wants to zoom with Annie and Tanner again. He wants me to set up the call and plan it. I tell him that he makes them super uncomfortable, and if he wants to zoom with them, then he is responsible for mending that relationship and planning it himself. I offer to zoom with him just me and my husband, but he refuses. He wants it to be with everyone, or not at all. Just another ploy to get to people that don’t want to talk to him.\n\n\nOver the last few days he keeps texting me over and over again asking about this call. Telling me he can’t get ahold at Annie and asking if I will talk to her. Asking me if I have heard from her yet. And I ignore him. I just can’t think of the words to say to him anymore. Annie and I live in different states, she has a crazy work schedule. I can’t force her to sit down and zoom call someone she doesn’t not want to talk to.\n\n\nThis morning I woke up to the same 3 messages copy and pasted over an hour early in the morning. 20 minutes apart. And I just couldn’t handle it anymore. I broke. I blocked him on my phone, Facebook, and Instagram.\n\n\nI just couldn’t stand being used as a means of communication anymore. I’ve been shutting it down for 4 years! He’s never gotten any information out of me, but refuses to quit trying. He can’t even try to have a normal relationship with me. I am so offended that he ‘crashed’ my baby shower, after agreeing he wouldn’t. Harassing my MIL about it. And refusing to take no for an answer. I am just so completely done with this relationship. \n\n\nEven typing this right now I feel bad. I don’t want our relationship to be like this. I don’t want to be another family member that alienated him. But he clearly doesn’t value our relationship as more than just a means of communication with others. I just don’t know what to do anymore. I just feel like a total asshole, but I’m 35 weeks pregnant and don’t need the stress!\n\n\n\nThank you to anyone who actually read this long ass post. I’m sure this was more of a vent and cathartic outlet for me, but I’d maybe like another perspective or advice on how to handle this situation moving forward.\n\nEdit: Wow I really didn’t expect this post to blow up like it did! Thank you all for the awards! Also thank you for the kind works and encouragement. I’m definitely going NC and plan to stay that way. I’m also going to look into how to notify the school he works for about his outside behavior. Just to clarify a few things. We do live in different states, and he has no idea where I live. His parents are COMPLETELY aware of what’s going on, they choose to do nothing. And I absolutely stand by my sister and cousin. At times I felt like a shield for them, protecting them by shutting him down and telling him his actions were wrong. But sometimes it’s hard to make the right decision and hurt someone.

Few minutes later, my brother comes in my room and says what did you write in the family group? to my surprise, and utter shock i had mistakenly sent it on the family group, these 3 messages telling my best friend that i was thinking of getting it for me. I fucked up. Thankfully, that group just had me and my mom and dad, and my brother and no extended family and i deleted it before my parents saw it, all because my brother told me what i had done. I just don’t fucking know how it happened, i have never made such a blunder when it comes to texting and since i come from an asian family I felt so embarrassed in front of my brother, although he said its okay, this keeps happening but be careful from next time and dont zone out while you text.
