The only people who get upset when you set boundaries are the ones who benefited from you having none.

[curlicuecal]

That’s why they perceive it as a personal attack— because your boundary encroaches on space they’re used to owning: eg, yours.

You gotta understand that some people never really grow. They never learn their lesson. They never recognise their mistakes, they never acknowledge their faults, they never admit they were in the wrong. You will never receive an apology from them, and you will never see their behaviour change.

2019 is going to be all about being as abhorrent as possible. i’m talking utterly eldritch and incomprehensible. too unbearable to even acknowledge.

I thought this would be the year where my house would be decorated for holidays and I'd have my own little family (partner, dog) to spend it with.

That didn't happen. And that's okay.

Sick of being okay all the time and accepting disappointment after disappointment. I want actual happiness and stability.

Unpopular opinion: straight people using “partner” to refer to their SO actually helps normalize the term so that lgbt folx can use it without automatically outing themselves to strangers. It also helps other straight ppl get comfortable with the fact that strangers aren’t entitled to information about other people’s gender or sexuality.

Tbh I hear “partner” and assume gay, I didn’t know straights used it. Very fair point, OP

[queerlybelovedones]

I hear ‘partner’ and think ‘gay’ too. A girl at work used it for months and I just went with it. When she would say ‘he’ I even thought maybe he was trans*. Anyways, someone using partner makes me more comfortable and I came out to her. She was just an intelligent straight girl that liked the term and was knowledgeable in human sexuality so definitely someone I should have felt comfortable coming out too. It’s a good sign of a straight person uses it IMO.

As a mental health clinician, this is actually my blanket term when discussing any romantic relationship. I agree it normalizes it, but I also think it’s a relatively safe term to use to describe most romantic relationships without making any assumptions about the person’s orientation or identity. I also use the word “partnered” when describing a monogamous relationship status.

[mxthermoon]

The term “partner” also removes the implied hierarchy of boyfriend/girlfriend vs husband/wife. This is relevant both to non-monogamous people, and unmarried individuals for whom the importance of their relationship isn’t dictated by its legal status.
