A commenter under one of that sociopath boyfriend threads:quote:This (antisocial personality disorder/sociopathy/etc) is actually something that has interested me quite a bit since I divorced my ex - he was diagnosed, but his family didn't share this fact with me until post-divorce (on some level they hoped I was his final chance at turning his life around. Unlike OPs ex, mine is both not a fundamentally good person and not able to be a functioning member of society - to the point where he is in prison until about 2022 I think) quote:Basically. It was a combination of concealing things, and perfect timing, and very low self esteem - I met him after the assault happened, but before sentencing. By the time everything was done, I was emotionally invested, felt obligated to stay, and wasn't sure of the truth (he claimed statutory, which this was, but his version was not a rape, just a relationship, and literally no one in his family would elaborate, and our friends group didn't know either. It was reported a few years after the incident. He was also a very good bullshitter in the beginning (this lessened over time as he got lazy) and had me thinking many things that weren't true about his family, while I'm sure he had them going with some fake stories about me, so they didn't trust me enough to let me in.

This man is my hero: My (20/F) boyfriend (20/M) of 1 year has a goal to do something silly every month. For February he's not having sex for the whole month - I hate it already, and he doesn't want to stop because he's committed to finishing his goal.Relationships quote:Edit: Wow this got a lot more attention than I expected. I'm very surprised to hear how interested people are about my boyfriend's monthly goals so I've put in a few more. There are a few things I've seen below that I wanted to address.

Today in Problems that Solve Themselves: How do I [15M] get my parents to stop talking to me as doctors? quote:I'm in a frustrating situation right now when it comes to my health. I had some health problems in my neck that are a lot worse than what the doctor originally thought. It's not going to leave me Wheelchair bound, but it's going to take a while for it to heal. I feel for the parents; if their idiot jock kid doesn't run off to play football and wind up in a wheelchair for the rest of his life, he'll later turn up in a frat and kill himself doing drunken parkour around campus. My bet: the parents are constantly reminding their moronic son that he's in serious danger and watching him like a hawk because they're fully aware that he spends every waking moment plotting some way to sneak off and play some sportsball.

I'm being facetious to be sure, and that manager isn't fit to be a manager, buuuuuuuut if something is important book it off. The pure incompetence of the manager, your job is literally to make your workers happy, organized, and facilitated; humans need life between work.

Just lol if you're a manager who jusssst neeeeds to contact an ex-employee to tell her off while being delusional that it's only because you care deeply for her future and not because it's a kindergarten attempt at recovering your fragile self-esteem after her resignation undermined it and revealed what you could never admit to yourself - that you're really bad at your job. It's actually a shame he was given proper advice because if my boss called me out of nowhere long after I left the company in those circumstances then I'd laugh into the phone until he disconnected. That would be the icing on the cake.

I'd call the company's HR department and tell them just what I thought of being tracked down and verbally abused by the person who forced me to quit my job over his petty power tripping.

Palpek posted:From my experience managers who do this simply don't have anything in their life except for work and then see their miserable existence as the only correct one. It helps that blatant workaholism is still broadly viewed as 'amazing work ethic' and not a sign of mental problems. The other side of that coin is "if you have to work 80 hours to do a 40 hour a week job, you're either bad at the job or the job is too much for one person".

Heavy neutrino posted:Today in Problems that Solve Themselves: That poor kid. He feels like he is being denied a normal childhood, because he is. I can't say how overt protective his parents are being (probably a lot ) and they absolutely should be keeping him of the trampoline, etc, but I am gonna guess that the could do a better job of commiserating worth him and showing some empathy for him. If they are talking to him like doctors then or sounds like they aren't talking to him like parents. My mom was first an ICU and then a pediatric nurse and this limited our options for fun growing up. Other kids I knew got to ride dirtbikes and poo poo and I wasn't even allowed to play football. Any time she didn't want is to do something she was concerned about, it came with a graphic medical description of some kiss she had taken care of.

yeah corporate culture is all about showing dedication and putting in hours, then you show up to their career training class and it's all about getting your own schooling and making your own opportunities they manipulate you into working like a dog with the promise of promotion, but make no effort to scout internally or train their people the HR people say all of this with a straight face, then cruise home in their mercs

The American retail sector desperately needs to unionize, because retail workers are paid and treated like absolute garbage but it's one of the only places you can get a job without a degree these days The last time in history that the country's largest employer of unskilled labor was insufficient to support a family on, we had a long, bloody labor-rights war. I'd say we're overdue. sorry I'll take it back to C-SPAM now
