Once had someone message me on reddit about buying an album I had posted. Checked out their account to see if they were legit or a bot.

Their post history was FULL of astral projection posts talking about their boyfriend that only exists on the astral plane, and all the conflicts and relationship issues they were having... decided not to respond.

He says I'm the love of his life in this life but she's the love of his life in the next.

Being the love of someone’s life for ONE lifetime should be enough. After that, all bets are off. OOP, you’re being greedy. Just be glad that you’ve found someone who’s as crazy as you are.

Jealousy isn't really that abnormal, it's not healthy but most folks feel it to some degree or another. Whilst I agree she should probably move past it, I'd say (assuming astral projection is real atall, dbout it) being seduced by an other worldly being from beyond time is the true crazy.

And a VAMPIRE at that? Theyr literally creatures of seduction and corruption. I mean common dude! You can't match the magical, let alone physical, might of a goddamn sub-succubus!!!!

My ideal scenario is that she looks back on this and laughs.

Well, no-one's getting stabbed in this relationship.

Wrong. An astral vampire hunter will stab his imaginary gf in the heart with a wooden stake.

Good. The Guild is Watching.

Stabbed seems very bland. I'm expecting fire

AND he said he wouldn't love me if I was a worm!

I've made that mistake. Just lie, when that question is asked. It's so dumb.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

My take has been that people shouldn't encourage this sort of purity test behavior. Just answer no. If she doesn't like that, she shouldn't ask questions like that

Until she gets pregnant, acts like she's excited to start a family together, then cuts all contact after the first trimester because you didn't "care enough"

Except for the fact that she kept it, and is forcing me to get a lawyer just to have visitation rights, knowing it's not something I can afford. Sometimes I think if I lied about that dumb fucking question, everything would be different and I would have a relationship with my baby. There were other factors, more or less equally stupid, but that was a very big domino. I might have dodged the missile, but my kid didn't, and now I have to fight my hardest just to help them in the smallest ways imaginable.

If it's any consolation, the situation wouldn't be any different if you answered the question differently.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 hours ago

I will never actually know that. Looking back, it definitely feels like that was the beginning of the end. It's easier to assume the Internet stranger has something wrong they don't want to admit, but keeping me from my child has zero justification, and the court will absolutely see that. If I had enough money to afford a legitimate lawyer, she would have already lost custody.

Sounds like the numpty with the username Daddys Little Slut here on Lemmy.
