Of course the same is true for them of us. We don't make any sense to them either. And so it goes. For how long?

What are your triggers and are your reactions always reasonable/rational or do you overreact because you can't not? Why?
Do you INSIST that everyone abide by rules you value? No wiggle room for different opinions/different values? What makes YOU the arbiter of what others should do/say/think?

I figured, well, most of my 'friends' are ppl from high school that I was never even really friends with LOL, and also some from college too that were kind of just acquaintances. yet I have liked SO many various people's posts over the last few years and they have never liked mine.. not even once. Today I posted a quote, not even one like or reply. I cannot post pics b/c my phone needs some kind of promo code (its a prepaid) so most of my posts are quotes or just cool things I find online too... it REALLY has bummed me out that no one , ever, has liked or commented.. not even my two close friends in which i like MANY things of theirs .. are they not seeing my post or??? What do you like or dislike about FB? less

I have posted about abuse I had from my mother since childhood here before, but this query bases around if you have ever known a sociopath yourself, or if not, where would you draw the line at their illness, or them just being mean or cruel? A short history is my mom has OCD, is manic, borderline personality and also borderline sociopath- she rages, curses, hits, screams, threatens and has even threatened my life once and her own. She is obscenely obnoxious and excessively clean- but when she has a RARE moment of 'how did such and such go?' you can see a tiny TINY spark of humanity inside. It is so rare but yet she shows this to her mother, and strangers, often. A mask , and then tells me people 'love her'... so when she is being kind and humorous with THEM, but never with me , for years, I know she is capable of kindness in 'some' way. She then says the most cruel and horrible things to me about myself, and I don't see it as illness at that point, I see it as mean... less

The only persons I've mentioned this to are my parents, and their response was it happens sometimes but it shouldn't. I'm particularly worried as I'm about to commit myself into a relationship, and I don't want such accidents to be a deal breaker.
Mine is from "Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines"~ a fun theme!If you've not heard it - - at least wait until the 0:26 seconds-or-so mark when the men start singing

I have more than once posted about singer/songwriter Tanita Tikaram lately on answermug. . . . her "Twist in my Sobriety" song simply stays and stay and stays in my heart and soul and I love it all somehow. . . is there song that, like "Twist" for me, is a song from your past and it re-enters your life with a bang and just lingers, desiring to be heard? (and the music video to "Twist in my Sobriety" is superb, as is the song)

I didn't want her to go either... she's been bullied non stop for 5 years so it's not like she enjoyed her time there .. she didn't complete the last few months.... and i guess too, I just don't see the point of this Prom stuff....but anyway she has decided to go... loads of expense for the dress, the shoes and a special hairstyle... grrrAmerican movies show Proms as pretty scary to be honest.. bitchy girls all trying to out-compete each other in terms of fancy dress and glamour... boys erm seemingly looking to get laid... and always some geeky/unpopular kid being picked on and ending up in tears because of some cruel practical joke...So tell me.. it's not really like that is it? less

My relationship to him is very low, he recently assaulted/hit me when I didn't agree with my manic mother (who was in a rage as well) and I did not call the police on him, as people told me after I should have. (it was multiple times hitting) I don't even know If I wanted to get him anything... I got him a small gift, but even that was a strain for me. He barely says hi to me, has defended my sick mother for so many years (even her severe emotional and also physical abuse). I see everyone on social media wishing their dad a Happy father's day when I want to tear up or cry. I've had some people here tell me I need to most likely cut ties with someone like this, yet its hard in that I have no one else in my life to ever help me financially , if I needed. How do you feel about Father's day and your overall connection to him? less
