I was persistent. 36 in queue. Got two balcony for $177 during live nation presale this morning. I literally chat gpt’d my plan of action earlier this week…what day is the most promising for tickets…. There is hope people!!!!!
3rd time seeing Brandi… second in Canandaigua. She never disappoints!
Does it take a long time to get through this anger? Going NC was easy. Finding peace is hard. I don’t even feel like I am ready to work on the anger. Is that normal?
My horrible mother who tried to choke me has been liking my husband and stepson’s posts on Facebook. At first I demanded that they delete and blocked her but then I thought no. Let her lurk and keep track of how happy, loving, healthy people actually interact…. Who the fck does she think she is? Does she honestly think my husband and stepson thinks everything is ok with her and they will interact with her? Blows my mind… seriously
Working through stuff with my therapist. I have a lot of anger towards my horrible mother and stepfather (who recently passed). What do you tell yourself to get past the anger?
My mother was not physically abusive (until she tried to choke me a couple weeks back and tell my whole family it was I who attacked her) but there was so much passive aggressive anger in her behavior towards me growing up. People say “oh your childhood was fine.” We functioned normal and people didn’t see it. Now as an adult shit hits the fan with a death in the family and I look like “the crazy one” for defending myself and setting boundaries. Why am I questioning myself? I NC with my entire side of the family. It just doesn’t seem worth it. No one was actively involved in my life as an adult anyway.
So I got the threatening letter from advantage noting I have so long to pick a plan. I still haven’t received that contact from your student loan counselor that dept of education says we are supposed to get. Has anyone received this phone call?
Is it normal to not remember details of a traumatic event? Like I remember my mother coming after me. I know she was escalating me with what she was saying and how she was behaving before hand but I can’t remember exactly what she said or what she did. I can’t remember what I said. Is that normal?
My stepfather passed away last Tuesday. He was a horrible person. I have two stepbrothers who are grown and live on the other side of US. My mother had a stroke last year and cognitively declined, still functioning but my stepfather did take care of her after her stroke (drive her… make meals… do meds)
I didn’t have the best childhood. My mother was miserable and did everything in her power to make me feel like I wasn’t truly part of this family. I tolerated my stepfather.
As she got older… and realized… “hey I might actually need her.” Her attitude changed as she got more dependent with others in my adulthood. Trying to actually try to feel something she thinks is love.
So I came to my mother’s home after she called me about my stepfather’s passing as my aunt has been staying with her so she is not alone. Tried to get her paper work organized.. start funeral arrangements etc. I see her will and my stepfathers will both separate.
Stepbrother 1: 45%
Stepbrother 2: 45%
Me: 10%
Now they don’t really have a pot to piss in. I couldn’t care less about any of that really. My husband and I doing really well. It just validates that they don’t truly give a shit about me.
Now. She can’t live in her house by herself and asking to come live with me and my husband… permanently.
I feel bad. She might think we have this “wonderful” relationship now but….
My stepbrothers are coming home for about a week. I am trying to help my mother because… she is my mother, not because I had an inkling of care about my stepfather.
I don’t think she really knows how to love anyone. True love.
Things became quite escalated between us while I was there. I planned my stepfathers funeral from start to finish. Me. No one else. My mother choose to not get involved O%. She would say “I don’t know” for simple questions about obituary, flowers etc. not one damn item. Just sitting there playing on her phone.
My aunt and uncle wiped their hands clean and made it clear they were not getting involved. My brothers came in today from west coast so they did nothing. It was me. She sat there playing on her phone or watching television… playing on her phone etc.
Discussions got heated from time to time and the last time. I just chose to gather my stuff and leave. I feel she knew since the funeral was done and plan she could care less that I was leaving.
She cornered me in the kitchen saying she was trying to give me a hug. I told her to get away and don’t touch me guarding myself and trying to get her away. That’s when she came at me and tried to ch k me. Litterally hands around my n..k. I defended my self by getting her away from me. She got unstable and fell back then accusing me of “pushing” her which is not what happened.
She had hate in her eyes. I saw it. That was no hug. I have marks on my arm and neck that were bleeding. I am in pure shock. Now she is playing the victim. My brother called me shouting at me “ what’s wrong with you? I talked to four people that said you attacked her first” which is not true. No he saw her try to choke me because this was in the kitchen. They saw her fall back as I was trying to get her off of me.
Not ONCE has she ever mentioned anything about my stepfather’s passing. Yes she would show crocodile tears when people come to visit but 24/7 the conversation was all focused on her. I’m done. I left and blocked all of them.

There is a posh seller that does live shows and her clothes look amazing. She tries them on and it looks amazing. I have been suckered into buying two items from her in the past. I get them and the items look horrible on me. She doesn’t allow returns. I am convinced with her amazing figure that everything looks amazing on her. Go her for finding a niche but I will not buy another item from her.
What are some of your non American fashion brands that are stylish but also easy on the wallet? Like Mango…Cider…etc
Anybody else having problems with going back and editing any of the drop down items after you have listed something (such as tags, brands?) my listing just goes dark and I can’t change it.
So I bought a pair of jeans. The seller never responded after 7 days. I complained to Poshmark and got my money back. I have no option to leave feedback about this seller? wtf
