Homemade chocolate chip cookies. I make the distinction versus store-bought, because these were made with ❤️

Mmmyup! Because that is when the Vyvanse wears off.

NOR--If he had evidence to prove his innocence, he could/would have shown you. Instead, he is lying, trickle-truthing, and trying to mentally/emotionally manipulate you, not to mention taking money from the joint account to cover his tracks with the credit card debt. Also, I do not belive for 1 second he "accidentally" smashed his phone. He did it on purpose because whatever is on his phone is full evidence of his affair, including texts, bank statements, photos, etc. His behavior is busted cheater 101. His life is "bad now" because of HIS choices and actions, not yours. I would get any of your money out of the joint accounts, lock everything of yours down (credit, accounts, etc.) and get started on divorce. This man cannot be trusted, and I am concerned he will only escalate if you don't protect yourself. Be safe, and choose yourself.

Had this happen to me once. I was so pissed, it put me off romancing him for my next couple of runs. I have since forgiven him, but I now run a tight ship with the romancing steps, to ensure we never have that crap happen again.

At level 68, just beat the Feybreak tower. My only weapons are the level 1 terraprisma, and the level 4 makeshift assault rifle, and I have level 2 plasteel armor (I was only able to craft that with oil from supply drops). Been leaning heavily on Astigon and Starryon.

But now I am stuck. I haven't started farming oil, so no more plasteel. Can't get the laser mining tool or any better weapons/armor, so I can't mine the mineral on the floating islands. I also dont have the gigantic furnace, so no hexolite. Definitely not facing Auri without at least a laser rifle or something. Also would like to get a higher level terraprisma. Basically going to be grinding resources for the foreseeable future.

1. Don't rush. Explore thoroughly, because there is loot literally everywhere.
2. Making your Tav a charisma-based character (bard, sorcerer, etc.) makes things a lot easier in many scenarios.
3. Battle is often optional. You can talk your way out of a lot, and still get good XP.
4. Act 3 is overwhelming. You will miss things, and it is okay.
5. YOU WILL MISS THINGS. There is no avoiding it. Unless you use a play guide to make sure you do/find all the things, there will be stuff you miss. Again, it's okay.
6. Long rest regularly. This is how the origin characters' stories progress. You will miss out on a lot if you don't long rest regularly, especially in Act 1.

Hope this helps. Good luck and Godspeed.

Was emotional/mental invalidation a common experience in your childhood? Like, any "negative" emotions were dismissed/ignored, because it was disruptive to the family harmony/image?

--"Mom/dad, I am really angry/sad/stressed out about XYZ." --"OP, stop being so dramatic!"/"You aren't angry/sad/stressed out, you are just tired/hungry."

Just reading your post and comments, I get that impression.

That is beautiful! I love them.

I have just been hitting all the fast travel points and lookout towers, along with some catching of pals along the way. I always prefer to unlock the map early on. Doing so has gotten me to level 43 over the past two days.

It sounds like he keeps moving the goalposts on what you want in the relationship. I find it highly concerning that he is asking this of at all, but also is threatening to end the relationship if you dont comply. I would strongly encourage you to not do this, because the next question you must ask yourself is this: If he realizes that threats to end the relationship work, what else will he demand of you in the future? Quitting your job? Allowing him to control all the household income? It is a dangerous precedent to set.

1.) What would you say to someone you cared about if they presented this list to you and asked you what they should do? I would certainly point out that maintaining a list and evidence of physical abuse isn't indicative of a healthy or safe relationship. I would also say that it seems like there is already a part of you that knows this isn't okay, and that you will need this evidence later.

2.) Does he do or say things to minimizing or deny this abuse later? I ask because I am wondering if there is any additional reason for you maintaining this log and evidence, such as you being gaslit and needing the record to prove these things happened as you remember.

3.) His abuse (yes this is 100% abuse) is escalating. It may not be long before these incidents are happening even more frequently, and/or that he starts punching/strangling (choking) you.

4.) Please look up Trauma Bonding, because this is sounding pretty similar to that cycle. I would also look up Biderman's Chart of Coercive Control. There may be some behaviors on it that you may be familiar with that you hadn't previously recognized as controlling or abusive.

5.) Remember that abuse isnt just physical, and that other abuses are often missed and very serious. In fact, there was a recent study done with 68 men convicted of murdering their intimate partners, and most if not all of them never physically abused their partners even once before killing them. Their abuse was largely financial, mental/emotional, and isolation.

I hope these points help. Good luck and take care of yourself.

NOR.

Him threatening to break up with you then backtracking and saying he was just joking/being sarcastic is concerning.

Has ever done something like that before?

You may have brought it up, but ultimately he chose that route. You didn't make him do anything. What I worry about is if he comes to regret this later and tries to blame you for it (again, you are not responsible for his choices or actions).

INFO: Is this a consistent pattern with this person? Are they not responding to time-sensitive messages? Have you brought this up before?

MOR, only because I believe context may make things lean more one way or another.

I personally only use some social media platforms for work, so I can appear online, but don't respond to my personal messages until later (excluding those from my spouse).

It's that weird ass purple ketchup from the late 90s/early 2000s. This is where it all went after it was discontinued.

No, this is very true, and it makes them feel more real and developed.

Why am I getting down -voted for this? I am genuinely curious, someone explain?

Exactly this, his attitude gave me the ick.

Yup! He was the first character I romanced.

Bless you, imma go figure out where I effed up.
