it's a shame he's such a fuckin' asshole with the vaccine fearmongering.

had a friend who with her behaviour got me so angry so frustfrated, she wants attention, so she makes things hard as possible. fuck that

I'm left feeling why wasn't I good enough. Why isn't anything I do good enough.
homerinchinatown
I don't think anyone has that power or option - to be 'good enough' for everybody... or really, maybe for anybody...?

This often applies more to family than romantic or platonic relationships. We often feel like we have to have shitty relatives BECAUSE.

Friends are the family you choose.

Gotta be talking about his ex wife
RideTheStimutacs
I spent 7 years with an ex. She became toxic. I thought I'd miss her, but the second she moved out, the weight of the world lifted off me.

I hope Jim Carey's ok these days.

Dad died a couple of months ago. Whole family is finally allowed to be happy.
BrokenAnimal
I have an ex like that. The world felt so much more peaceful after we broke up.

Too bad Carrey isn't absent from Epstein's log book.
HeySusMonater
And absent of a brain

Big accusation to make without posting the receipts to back it up.

Drugs? Maybe thats just my past "their". I thought more comments would be about this but I'm close to being a alone..But maybe Jim is right

This explains my divorce. Thank you
zomafreakapon
I actually needed to see that today. Thank you kind random stranger.
FisheswithDynamite
I find the most difficult thing is differentiating between wanting them, and wanting someone there.
Oof. Thanks, that's a good one.

Toxic friendships will rob you. It can take years to realize this. And break your heart
Iloveblackcats217
Couldn't agree more. Bye Felicia bye!

I can’t thank you enough for posting this. I just got home from the ER after learning I have developed fibromyalgia from extreme stress due
To my abusive, bi polar 46 year old sister (I am 30) who has been mentally and physically abusing me my whole life. I’m taking the leap.
She will never be allowed in my life again. I needed this so badly. Thank you.
AfterTheRainComesTheRainbow
I'm proud of you
Thank you ❤️ no one has said that to me
That's a shame. It's important to say and hear ♡

Jim Carrey also finds facts about vaccines hard to swallow.
andydicktracymorganfairchild
That can be because you never really connected with them out of fear or some other fault of your own, too, though.
Fachera
Im their child and they were/ are emotionally unavailable (mum) narcissistic (dad). Its a no for me
Nether91
If their presence gives you fear, maybe it's not something you did. I take it you have been a "their"
AimlessSavant
This has haunted me since the death of my grandfather recently. I feel guilt for the life I chose. The times I could have had but
never did as a child, teen, and young adult even as he was dying. I never took him up on anything..

What's funny about victim blaming?

Chill, jeez!

It depends how much of an asshole they're

It's not technically grammatically illegal, but reading this sentence still feels... Wrong...
Grammatical terrorism. I like it.

This is how I feel about not being around my parents
pleaseuseotherdoor
I grieve for the loss of the people I thought they were and the love I thought we had. Upon learning the truth, I don't miss the people.
UltraHellboy
For me, just my Mom. I miss my Dad.
Yep. :I

I feel you. Malignant narcissist/codependent parents here. The damage is felt daily. I wish you peace and mental health.

My whole family, really. Trumpets and brainwashed red shirts, the lot of them.
Deadpo0l
What if their absence makes you unable to sleep at night, and they’re now seeing somebody else? Asking for a friend…
TheRealGeorgeMcfly
I found drinking myself unconscious was a way around that. I'm not good at relationship advice though.
The part that hurts is the part of yourself they took away from you. Fill that gap in other ways. New hobbies, new friends, new places.
kenchaai5772
Time, distraction and more time until the feeling is diluted enough for you to function normally again. For me it took nearly 3 years.
andreyhimself
Some sadness you don't get over, just have to learn to live with.
benderfreak
Get a big breastfeeding pillow to hug at night. Get out of your comfort zone and hang around with people you like more than usual. That's it
anunladeneuropeanswallow
Mood. Got no real answers for you, just in the same boat. I’ve been told I can get through this so I’ll pass it along to you. It’ll be ok.
WheeeeereIsMyMind
Time for my wife and I to have a talk with the kids. We'll miss them.
ingoz
Lol
mrbellek
Came here to post this. I love them so much, but it's hard to find peace with those little jitterbugs around
roboticKittenTamer
It can help to put a positive spin on it, "Good news, kids! Mommy & daddy found a way to be to at peace…"
afsdpckapjadfkasef
I never knew how much I was a little shit until I grew up
marginalimprovement
It's for the best
peeeopeepeee
Seriously, love a lot of people in my life but I'd rather live way away from everybody and only see them once a year
eetsumkaus
that's why I moved to a completely different country!
