Overall, how would you consider dogs? Do you find them easy to understand and very obvious or hard, complicated creatures.

I am currently facing a situation where I don't know what to do. My family has been toxic throughout my life and has not allowed me any privacy growing up, which already takes its toll. I had to sneak around and date once I reached college because of how crazy my family was about it, to the point my serious 4-year relationship ended over it. Now, I have gotten serious with a guy (engaged), and my family disapproves of him because of his financial status (he doesn't make enough) and thinks he's abusive/disrespectful towards them and me. For example, my mom claims he's disrespectful because he hung up the phone on her while she was speaking. But she purposely interrupted my phone call with him, knowing that got him mad since we were trying to spend time together.

I lived with him (7 hours away from family) for a couple of months before my family got involved. My sister came saying that my mom wasn't doing well health-wise, and I had to leave to visit/take care of her. My partner didn't want me to go, but I didn't want to leave my family hanging, so I left. I came to find out that they planned to keep me here from June (when my sister came) to September/October for a "ceremony" where they could do their rites of passage before marriage. Still, I'm not confident they will actually do that with the way they all have been behaving about it as it's getting closer to time.

However, my partner has his quirks and isn't perfect. He does have trust issues because his last girlfriend cheated on him, so he fought over looking through my phone a couple of times in the past, but that's gotten resolved like other issues we had before. He marches to the beat of his drum, so he'll tell people if he doesn't think something is right according to his morals.

I don't want to compromise my relationship with my family, but I'm afraid that'll happen regardless. I understand my family's concerns about him, but he's not the bad person they portray him as. Help.

I'm always noticing these little synchronicities in my every day life and I never know what they're supposed to mean or if they're supposed to mean anything.

Maybe it's all just coincidence? 🤷‍♀️

My mom’s in her early 50s and my grandparents are in their 70s. They’re all physically fine and in good shape thankfully.

As a kid, i always told my mom that I’d build her a cottage on my property to keep her close. As an adult, I told her thats absolutely no longer happening lol.

she's been a fcking demon the last 7 years. She got that attitude/behavior from my grandma and now I feel like my little sis is acting just like them. My grandpa and I continue to pray for our own sanity each day because they want to get to us so badly and drain us physically, mentally, and financially.

I told my mom she’s either getting an in home nurse when she ages up, or she’s going in a nursing home because I ain't changing shit (and I meant that literally). She got mad and talked all crazy so I told her “and this is why that pissy nursing palace will be keeping you company cause I’ll only be visiting twice a year”. Then my grandma jumped in and said “How dare you talk to her like that?” And I told her “Don’t worry, you’ll be there long before she’s sent there.” Then my mom started laughing cause she's definitely throwing her mom in there after all she put her through in childhood.

By the way, anyone going to see this new movie where she's forced to take care of her evil ass stepmother in all?#FeelFreeToList
