What WindSparrow said. Gud, you need to just hold a mirror up when your wife starts that. She's clearly the one who thinks everything revolves around her.
I was hoping to photograph today, but I stepped outside, and it was 18°, and I went NOPE.
I've been taking photos of the ice creature growing on my window.
And now I'm trying to make the thread about me. Nevermind, I'm fine. I'll be fine.
The thread is about all of us. Talking about yourself is never out of place.
Can you explain to me how you are selfish? I think if you try to express it, you'll immediately see how ridiculous it is.
Gudanov, a drowning person is not selfish. When you reach out here for validation, that is is your soul grasping for a life preserver. You are hurting, you are depressed. You are fighting anxiety. And not everyone in your life is kind and supportive of you. The part of you that says you deserve to be treated unkindly is sadly mistaken. You deserve kindness. You deserve compassion. You deserve respect. That there are people in your life who do not meet that obligation, the fault is in them. THE PROBLEM IS NOT INSIDE YOU. You may not be ready to believe it, but you are worthy of love, and you are worthy of kindness, and you are worthy of understanding.
We worry about you Gud. You are not being treated with the love and respect that is supposed to exist between spouses. It isn't right or fair. I've worked with my husband for nearly 30 years and I know well that if I screwed up and forgot to install something he would react by apologizing for putting too much on my plate. I know because this is how he treats me. If he forgets something my first reaction is that he has too much going on and that I should have calendared it for him. Partners. Helping each other. Supporting each other. Never blaming or abusing each other. We all make mistakes and deserve understanding and support.

Unrelated, clearly, and not disrepecting, but....
Sara made boobie cookies.
The caramels usually melt and make them look like volcanoes or sink into the cookie. But my kitchen was cold, hence the caramels were, so they didn't melt.
Just know Gud, you have people here who love and appreciate you for the generous, considerate person you are.
