    Relationship How Do I Make Others Understand?

    As someone who spent 25 years of her life with a man who certainly had a family history and medical history that would explain all his bad behavior, I know it is not possible for someone to 'just get over it.' I also know that your mom can understand the relationship between ptsd and his bad...

    My mom is still extremely abusive, she may be bipolar, histrionic personality disorder, or bpd - undiagnosed because everyone else has a problem, not her - and I am 50 years old.

    Relationship Don't Want To Be Blind, So I Am Drawn To The Blunt Talk Here

    Chris, Thank you. What you shared is very helpful because it's really what I intuit - without language - is going on with him. You are a very expressive writer and perhaps put those things into words, which is so more helpful than feelings. Anyone can be hiding anything, I guess. All I can...

    Relationship Don't Want To Be Blind, So I Am Drawn To The Blunt Talk Here

    Met a man online three and a half years ago in a game. After about a month, we began a personal on-line relationship that did result in us meeting. He is still in the military and is currently transferred overseas. For myself, before him, I have a history that is suspect, I guess. My dad...
