I don’t have too many in my life and my mental health has greatly improved from not dealing with this in the past years. I don’t know if it’s just a pitfall of close relationships or poor ones, as I’m a bit of a loner.

Have I done it? Yes. Do I regret it? Also yes. Did I once decline my very fit neighbors offer to help move a large item because my brain said “don’t bother them they are so nice”….unfortunately. I am getting older and stating to come around to the idea of accepting assistance, so I paid someone to move some of my heavy furniture this time.

A family moves into an adorable haunted house in the countryside. Multiple times during their hour of need, whimsical spirits that would be nightmare fuel in other contexts provide assistance (animated).

Even in more progressive areas boys are socialized differently. I’ve been in a field where I see early childhood until middle school for years now. And girls, from the beginning, and raised more strictly. They have more care in their clothes, their meals, and the skills they are taught. They rarely fight, and if they do, it’s not on impulse. My theory on why people often say “boys are easier” is because they absolutely neglect them. So the onus is on 3rd parties to often teach them basic skills and rule following, to control their impulses, etc. Even in K-5, boys are the ones who are telling their teachers to fuck off, leaving the buildings without permission, fighting, etc. Parents blame the teacher/staff, if they are present at all, and antisocial behavior gets rewarded again and again.

Right? I don’t directly fire people but I am someone who has the delightful task of giving verbal warnings and write-ups that lead to firings, and doing so always sucks ass even though it’s warranted.

It all started as a teenager, when older guildmates in wow would vent about their marriage, job, bills….

I have definitely leaned into it. I’m 39 and I could go out and try to date etc. But in the past years I’ve reclaimed myself, and my mental health is better, and I have a house, and genuine friends, and the list goes on….so anyways I’ll just stay here in this peaceful space.
