I COULD SCREAM RIGHT NOW!!!!! IM FURIOUS!!!!!
Im back to work after the long weekend and filling in my lil sis on the weekends dramas with partner, only to find her "confess" that she has had text messages from my hub asking her to come and babysit on our Anniversary as he is booking a fancy restaurant and Gold class cinema tickets (to accompany expensive earrings) BUT not to tell me cos its a surprise!
She has been wracked with guilt and finally spilled today when I was ADAMANT that I have told him again and again that we are NOT celebrating this anniversary in any way and that any gifts purchased WILL be returned for refund!
What is wrong in his brain that he just refuses to accept/ listen???
It actually offends me that I dont get my needs wishes respected but I HAVE to go along with what he wants... common in this relationship!
Has made me want "out" even more so!
Im so sick of him telling my family to keep things from me! They dont want to get involved! My sis had said OK to his request, so as far as he knows she is coming over, BUT, he is assuming that I will not make a scene and just go along.....

OMG Kylie. What IS wrong with him? Obviously what he wants is more important than what you want. He is clearly not listening at all!!
I'm so sorry Kylie. It's sounds awful.
On a brighter note, My Miss 15 came back home today. We'll take a day at a time.
Thinking of you Freddie and your other half.

Good afternoon fellow OK'ers :-x
Kylie just as you and Jacks said ... he is thinking only of himself and believes he can manipulate you because he is "smart" and everyone else is stupid, which is another Narcissist trait.
Stay strong and determined Kylie. :-x
Jacks - one day at a time ((Jacks)) :-x
Hugs to Mrs Braff, YCDI, Cuddly and Miss Lucy, She-Ele and those I've missed and those whom lurk.
Hugs to everyone, keep the faith.

I'm still alive after eating meat (yuck!) last night. I don't feel any different but at least I haven't woken up to any hives or swellings. So the meat is a safe option.
Chanting is sporadic. I saw my teacher on the weekend and she explained what was happening. There are many parts of our personality each with different needs. They compete with each other to get our attention. There is a part of me that loathes my job, is fearful for my future, feels unlovable and is expressing itself with an auto-immune disease (the hives and angio are auto-immune). It's easy to see that an auto-immune disease is myself attacking myself. But when we keep up the chanting, our Buddha Nature rises to be the dominate part, the wise, hopeful, sensible and compasionate part and keeps all those other parts under control. But I tend to have self-destructive tendencies, I turn my anger and fear inward towards myself rather than towards others. No wonder I have had 4 auto-immune diseases throughout my life. Oops make that 5 if you count asthma.
Hence my self -destructive tendencies also manifest in not chanting when I have 100% proof it works.
Sheesh. Life's pretty complicated. 😐

Cat it has been a long time since I have come into this thread and I have gone as far back as when you were thinking of pulling it. I just wanted to say I am glad you did not as it would appear it is helping a lot of people.
Kylie stay strong, by the sounds of it you have a wonderful family and great kids. If your OH does give you presents and a card on your anniversary don't open them just give them back and say thank you I am not interested. At least that way you will get to burst his bubble in a polite way and he will know the bedroom is going to be out of bounds for ever.
Jack I am sorry to hear you are still having issues with Mr B I was hoping that would be all sorted out . How are things with your daughter now.
Freddie I am so sorry to hear about your partner it realy has been a bad year for you. I will be keeping everything crossed that the rest of the tests come back with a favourable outlook.
Cat (again) I have never been a vegetarian as I like meat to much, good luck with the new diet I hope it does help. It must be odd eating meat after such a long time, would it help if you started off with chicken as the flavour is not as strong as beef or lamb and it has a less chewy texture.
I read and posted on this threat at the very beginning and can't believe that it has been nearly 2 years since it started. How time flies. Good luck to all the OK'ers past and present and keep on looking after each other.

Thank you youcan and maine, the waiting is so frustrating. ♥

Hi maincoon good to see you! A few posters here need as much OK support and soxy knicker girl power to get through some tough weeks/months. :-x
Freddie it's the waiting which sucks. Waiting for appointments, waiting for results, waiting for treatment ... I pray with all my soul for the best possible outcome for you and your partner. :-x
Maybe this meat eating thing worked. I started spring cleaning the house and have just stopped now after 3 hours. I couldn't have done that yesterday. Maine, maybe free range chicken might be better. I don't think I could stomach eating a cow again. Another strange thing is that I didn't feel like eating anything since last night until just now at 5pm! It must have really filled me. 😮
