Every post in r/Childfree makes so much more sense if you imagine the OP has BPD. It explains why they flip the gently caress out as soon as someone suggests the world might not revolve around them and their willingness to pick fights with people in public over the smallest of imagined slights.

As insufferable as all of this sounds I do enjoy the fact that the only person creating any sort of tension or unpleasantness is the OP. Also, I used to know a bunch of hippies that lived in a 'family-style' share house like this. It was headed by an older guy (30ish) who would bring in mostly girls in their early 20s due to offering super cheap rent then he'd insist that everyone have dinner together every night and do social stuff together. Everyone in the house did a lot of drugs and one night I was over there taking acid and the main guy's sister (who was, like, 16, I think) was visiting from the country and she got high and started telling everyone about how her brother would feel her up and molest her when she was younger :catstare:

That makeup girl must be wearing some real garbage-tier makeup if it's smearing all over everything. There are quality brands these days have paint-like lines (at least for lipstick / eyeliner / eye shadow, not sure about foundation) that won't come off even if you go swimming in them. And you think if she was that obsessed about having flawless makeup she'd spring for some pro-level foundation like Kryolan or similar that they use for actors and people on TV.

My wife wanted to randomly meet an obvious creeper that's 12 years older then her for coffee. She's only exchanged a sentence and three paragraphs with him. Should I feel weirded out?


My wife and I are still fairly young, she's 21. We've been married for about three years and been together for a year beyond that. At the very beginning of our relationship she did cheat, though the guy had started off as a child sexual predator and abused her long before we ever met. She cut it off with him and came clean shortly thereafter. I was hurt, but she was obviously hosed up from this guy also. Aside from this she's never given me anything to be suspicious about.

In general we have an open relationship, though neither of us has acted on it. Our biggest rule is that we keep each other informed to the minute about our feelings for others if anything is developing and never lie surrounding it. She's bisexual and there are a few times where she's looked on dating sites for women to casually date, she's not shown any interest in men and really hasn't used them much anyway.

So two things got me being a bit weirded out yesterday:

The first. She tells me randomly last night that she's meeting some guy for coffee (non-romantically) today. We tell each other a lot about our lives so it was a bit surprising I'd not heard of this guy before. She explained they'd had a good conversation online over the last week or so and he'd asked her to coffee, that she wasn't interested in him romantically and that she's specifically told him she was married so there should be no weirdness. Though she didn't say it outright she implied it was someone our age.

I was doing some work, but a few hours later when I finished I logged onto her OK Cupid profile (we both do this frequently to each other, our internet accounts are generally very open to each other) I found out that what really happened was the guy sent her a one sentence message a week ago saying he'd reply to her profile more later and then she responded with a sentence joking about being so formal. Today he'd responded to that message with two paragraphs referring to very obviously tailored flirting (talking about communes and using a lot of the bullshit terms people use to look smart) and a third paragraph that was along the lines of "I enjoyed reading your profile and would love to discuss stuff like this sometime over coffee." She briefly replied to his first two paragraphs and gave a time to meet the following day (today). I then read his profile and he was very obviously kind of douchey (something she's usually very vocally against). On top of all the douchey things guys do to get girls to like them he also was 33, unemployed, and mentions many times that he's on "happy pills." At times he goes into random angry rants on his profile and just int general seems a bit unhinged. She also did not mention she was married (though it does clearly say it in her profile and she says now that that's what she meant by it).

So at this point I'm completely weirded out and wondering why she would actively try to meet him without knowing him and with him being such creeper. I bring up that I feel weirded out by this and she gets really defensive and ridicules me for being ridiculously over protective. It comes out that she'd read his profile before when trying to get a friend a date on there and though he was a complete douche but forgot that when he messaged her. I'm not really jealous but I insisted to her that I felt there was something off there. That it didn't add up. I honestly don't think she's looking to cheat on me, possibly it's something weird mentally otherwise (her family has a history of mental illness and there's a better then average, though still low, chance she will develop a schizotypal disorder given her dad has one and her mother is crazier, though not diagnosed with anything). She's pissed because she assumes I'm jealous and controlling and I honestly don't see how she could not see this as weird and completely filled with warning signs (both for her with that guy and for me with her).

The second thing came up this morning. I was thinking over whether or not I was being jealous and something I thought of was that there's this guy she met in a history class that I was completely cool with where many would freak out. You see she'd been talking to this guy and she was excited because it seemed like he wasn't a douche. He invited her to a history club she was starting (oddly this is happening for the first time today also). What makes it a bit weird is that she commented here on Reddit at some point saying that him talking to her about history and not desperately trying to get in her pants caused her got him a date. I figured she was lying about it to Reddit since she knows I read her posts (she reads mine also) and she said she was just trying to make a point about how to get a girl. I didn't really think about it again until this morning. Then I started to realize that would seem a bit chumpish given how crazily suspicious that stuff is (in my eyes). She even specifically mentioned that she wasn't sure if anyone would show up to the history club so it might just be him and her there chatting for the entire time. Just the more I think about it the more weird it seems. I brought that up this morning and she gets angry and defensive again and starts making statements about how she just won't try to make friends anymore and that she'll delete her dating site profile and stop talking to men. Which is a very bizarre reaction considering she's had and still has many friends who are male that I've never been weirded out by and this stuff seems fairly objectively suspicious.

So I'm left without a clue. On the one hand this stuff reeks of something off going on but on the other if she wanted to date someone she could just be upfront about it since we've been clear that casual dating is fine. I've mentioned it multiple times to her in relation to this and she vehemently denies and romantic feelings. Why would she tell me about all this if she was really doing something wrong? I really do believe her, but I feel like I'm putting blinders on when so many facts just don't align. I don't see any reason for her to hide anything from me but in my eyes the evidence is fairly clear.

Am I being overly suspicious or protective? Is what she's doing normal for most (she doesn't usually meet people online this quickly before and is very judgmental against those who do)? Though I'm not freaking out, is being worried about the safety of meeting a guy like that even out in public overblown? I'm just looking for some outside perspective.

Edit: Just to be clear she's had close guy friends before and even now. My issue isn't that she could gently caress guys, she's had crushes on some of those friends and I've encouraged her to pursue it. My issue is that I'm afraid there may be some deceit in here and I have no clue why she'd feel the need to hide something from me. If it's not deceit I'm afraid of what would cause her to act so unusual and against how she usually acts.

Oh hey, it's my last relationship from the perspective of my ex (who, coincidentally, has bipolar). We dated for 8 years and it took another 18 months of yes, no, on, off fuckery before I finally severed completely. She got this idea in her head that because we'd been together for so long through our 20s she'd somehow missed out on some fundamental part of growing up (it was the loving a bunch of different people part) so we broke up and then every time she'd have a depressive crash she'd beg me to get back together with her because her life was a dumpster fire then she'd go manic (she was off her meds and doing a ton of coke at this point) and run off on a bender and I wouldn't hear from her for two months.

How are you even able to 'not check' unless you're walking into the bathroom with your eyes closed or walking into the bathroom backwards and backing up onto the toilet like a truck? When you walk into the bathroom don't you see the toilet in front of you?!? I have never, never understood how this has become a trope that people complain about or an issue in any way.

Am pretty person, can confirm am soulless, like gingers

I (25F) drank too much and embarrassed myself in front of my boyfriend's mother (46F) and her friends

I loving hate people that drink like this and think they have to pressure other people around them to drink as well so that everyone can have ~~fun~~. Some people go out and don't need to drink one of everything behind the bar to enjoy themselves, or they can have a couple of drinks over the night and be good. Don't loving shame them into doing shots and all this bullshit. Jesus, gently caress, it makes me so goddamned angry. My ex used to get guilt-tripped into going out for drinks with her co-workers and would then get guilt-tripped into drinking way too much (she was a lightweight to begin with and on meds that didn't play nice with too much alcohol) and would inevitably end up calling me for a lift home because she was poo poo-faced and her co-workers had ditched her somewhere. But if she tried to say she didn't want to go for a drink or only wanted one beer she'd get called a spoilsport and a party-pooper. The times she didn't go out for drinks they'd loving text her saying how much fun she was missing out on. It was goddamned insane. Why do you need other people to validate your over-indulging? This sort of manipulation and guilt-tripping is worse than straight-up abuse because if you try to call people out over how lovely it is they hide behind the bullshit excuse of "I just wanted you to enjoy yourself" rather than admit they're at fault or that they're trying to normalise their excessive behaviour. At least if the mom had have punched her or something she'd clearly be the bad guy in the story and not just the 'wacky, fun-loving mom who likes a drink'.
