We’ve had quite heated exchanges in the past. I’m glad U don’t remember them. Never mind then.

You know, if there’s anyone left on the board who hasn’t lost any and all respect for you because of the the lying, cheating, changed stories, selfishness and total lack of personal responsibility you’ve displayed to this point, you’ve probably just managed to alienate them as well by typing “U” instead of “you.”

It is worth noting that if you are indeed suffering from Borderling Personality Disorder, it could be a reason for what you do, not an excuse. You’re still responsible for your actions and the consequences of your actions.

Have a nice life.  
[/QUOTE]

Serious Question: How will you enjoy being personally & vulgarly insulted in this vein by people who know you, and will likely do so in person?

Something else on which to possibly reflect: Reputations get around about people, and don’t think for a second that your social circle (local PTA, school office staff, beauty shop regulars, etc), however small, won’t be fully aware of your past, addictions, and behavior. Remember how upset you were when the [snooty mom/friend](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=379334) wasn’t too keen on your kid hanging around with hers? There’ll be plenty more of those moms around who won’t permit their children to be around you or yours. You children face the same ostracization that you do. I certainly wouldn’t permit my children to come over to your house.

Absolutely, but it may explain WHY I feel so miserable and erratic.

[QUOTE=Ensign Edison]  
Believe me when I say you only think you’re sober now.  
[/QUOTE]

I have to disagree with this (that she could be even considered sober), just for the following reasons:

As recently as December she was taking 300 hydrocodone pills a month, which she obtained illegally through various internet suppliers (and then asked if she could deduct from her taxes). She has a medical THC card, which she admits to using twice a day (and sharing, and feeding to her fucking hamster). Even _if_ she’s off the hydrocodone, she’s likely still partaking of the THC, and god knows what else.

She’s not a dry drunk. She’s an active addict. Alcohol was her drug of choice until she got 3 DUIs and tossed into rehab.. she’s just moved on to greener pastures.

Boy, if this thread isn’t a warning to be very careful about what you share with strangers on the Internet, I don’t know what is.

[/QUOTE]

what do you tell them? I mean there’s a short list of things that some one would absolutely not be able to take the toddler w/. Doctor’s appointments, blow jobs, job interviews, that’s about the extent of it.

(so, either add them to the list of folks you’re screwing over - I suspect you’re not saying “hey, would you watch my kid so I can suck off a cop”, and/or, add them to the list of ways your hubby may find out)

It’s also worth noting that, based on the age given in her profile, she and her family are only screwed for about another 15 years or so (as it takes the average BPD patient until middle age to show significant signs of recovery).

This I don’t understand at all. My past and addiction information is completely unknown to anyone other than those I share it with IRL.

It was November 18, thank you very much, and I’ve been totally clean since. Are you saying I used my MM card twice a day - what does that mean? What are you talking about?
