Never lie to your partner?
How about this question?
Do these jeans make me look fat?
OR...
Is my butt getting bigger?
God Almighty, I’ve got to break up with CNN.
THAT is funny!
Is my butt getting bigger?
No, that’s not possible.................
SLAPO!......................
NP/BP?.......................
Well played, Sir!
LOL...Post of the Day!
This is a better definition of a liberal than I’ve seen in years.
“They Comment On Your Appearance “
i.e., “You didn’t that to work did you?”
“No Dear, I changed in the car on the way home.
LOL!
What about this one?:
“I don’t want you to think I take you for granted.”
ADIOS MO FO!
I was married to a liar. He’d lie about what he had for lunch, trips he’d taken, people he knew...anything at all. When I asked him why he lied, he said it was FUN. I left.
Narcissist personality/borderline personality disorders.
They’re quite real and very common.
Social media has fueled these in the past decade.
Very cruel, and very broken people.
Their behaviors and symptoms overlap and sometimes indistinguishable.
The core of each disorder is self-loathing and sadly, according to most psychologists these disorders, shy of a come-to-Jesus healing, are incurable.
My wife says I never listen to her, at least I think that’s what she says.
Never lie to your partner?
How about this question?
Do these jeans make me look fat?

“Well, it’s not really the jeans, I guess.”
In all honesty, that was a VERY hard read. My ex ‘gaslighted’ me for decades. I can’t find ONE thing on that list that he didn’t do. I stuck it out until the kids were grown and I divorced the jerk. I went to see a therapist to get my head on straight, again.
We had exactly TWO sessions. She told me, “There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with you. You were married to an evil, manipulative jerk!”
And then, I found True Love at age 50, and it’s all been Sunshine and Roses ever since. It can be done; I am Living Proof. Love does NOT have to hurt or make you miserable. In fact, if it DOES, that is NOT Love! :)
Yes, women love compliments; however, creepy control freaks don’t dish those out, they consistently use criticism instead.
I dated one of these when I was young, stupid, and thought I knew what true love was all about. He was a professional at nitpicking everything I wore or did, making me feel unattractive and never supporting me or my goals.
I finally dumped his beta-ass.
Now, I’m married to an incredible man, we have a great family, I have a successful career, and during our first year of dating I won a regional beauty pagent. My husband never displayed any of the behaviors in the article. He is an alpha male; he doesn’t need to tear me down to lift himself up.
