Wait this is a common experience? Makes me grateful my parents never fight

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Humans are messed up in general so it's probably common enough tbh. My childhood was a bit different though. The arguing was never mutual. It was always my dad screaming at my mom while she sits there and takes it. I remember realizing that was abnormal by watching media growing up... realizing that couples are supposed to love each other and that fights are generally a mutual experience, not just one person belittling the other.

Anyway sorry that was oversharing lol

So relatable. Aight lemme overshare a little too (TW: sadness).

My oldest memory is my dad yelling at my mom while 3yo me runs to my room crying, and looking for my teddy bear so I can get a little comfort. Fuck I’m crying again.

I'm assuming since you're older now, you're out of that environment, yeah? It's one silver lining in things I guess. If your teddy bear were sentient I'm sure it would have hugged you back and told you everything was gonna be ok.

Honestly, for me it's a bit weird. I've actually forgotten a lot of the specifics of my childhood. I know my dad would do it, but I don't really remember any specific moments in time or what my responses were. Memory is a weird thing like that. I guess because it was so long ago or something. Dunno.
