Festivals are not festivals for us. It's just another day of drama for us. I hate my family for this.
And now, when I see my sister suffering due to all this, I feel very helpless. I have spent my entire childhood seeing this. I really don't want my sister to develop any traumas because of all these. I don't want my sister to be effected by this. I will study hard this year, get into a good college and do some part time job as well, do that I can send my sister to a hostel. At least she will stay away from all this and live a normal life.
Sounds of slamming against the wall and many more started coming. My sister stood at the door of the room where my parents were fighting. She came back and sat in front of the TV, holding her tears back. Her eyes at TV, pretending as she was busy watching the interesting serial, but man, I read her eyes. Full of terror and sadness. That was enough. I can't see my sister like that. I went there and saw something which I want you all to visualise.

Having brought up in a broken family, I from the very childhood, am used to seeing fights between my parents. When I say broken family I do not mean that my parents are divorced. No, my parents are not divorcee, they are not alcoholic. They live together only to make each other's life hell. And in the rage of that, they end up making the life of us children hell.
Your father is lying on the bed, trying to hold the hands of the mother firmly. Your mother standing with one leg at your father's stomach and the other on his neck, trying to choke him. What would you have done? I went in and pulled my mother. Yeah I had to be tough on her because it wasn't possible to pull her away with soft and loose grip.
This answer comes from a 19 year old girl.

Now, you would say everyone's house has such parents. Fights happen between couples. But believe me when I say that the fights of my house are not ‘normal’. My mother beats my father. She becomes mad when she is angry. Shouting? Yelling? What's that? She screams at the top of her lungs when my father tries to defend himself from her attacks. The very first memory I have of my mother beating my father dates back to 2013, when I was in 2nd class(8 year old).
This is just one such example. Yesterday my mother lost her temper and started beating my father. With charger, with belt, with nails, with hanger, with kitchen instruments, she used everything she found to hit him. I increased the volume of the TV, to help me and my sister to not give attention to what was happening in the house.
My brother (then 20) was downstairs and my sister (then 12) was in school, so none of them witnessed this. The reason why I (then 17) am saying this will be stated at the last.
Does the U.S military really prosecute military staff for cheating on their spouse, or do they close one eye if the cheating does not involve other military personnel since adultery is fairly common? Adultery is illegal in U.S military
She became mad at me, wanted to beat me but my father stood in between. She slapped him, hit him in the eyes, shouted at me and went in her room. After some 10–15 mins, I went to her and said sorry.
Some 2 years back, my mother was trying to stab my father with a knife. I got in between and snatched the knife from my mother's hand. I had held the knife from the sharp edge and got my palm and fingers cut(just 4 days before my board exam). As the heat of the moment was, I didn't feel any pain but blood was oozing out of my hand. My father noticed that and even asked me about that, but my mother didn't stop.
She is not talking to me. I am the unfortunate one, who has witnessed the fights between my parents the most amongst my siblings. Still my mother has the audacity to say, ‘The fight did not happen only for you, your siblings are also living under the same circumstances, why the f*ck are you behaving different and sad.’ Even if I seem to be more sad and depressed, you can't say like that because every child is different.
Hi everybody! I have been looking at posts on narcs and narc abuse on here and if has really helped me out a lot. I am currently struggling with my situation and need some advice/support.
I met a narc last year, everything seemed to good to be true. Love bombing, always texting calling and taking me on dates. Everything changed when someone warned me about him out in public in front of him and who he is. This caused a conflict with us and the love bombing seized.
he would tell me that everything is okay and i can come and talk. He would set a time limit on me and kick me out after that.
he would then text me like everything was fine and we hung out again and after that he completely ghosted me for one week. He came back and texted me a week later laughing about the ghosting and acting like nothing had happened.
he continued to text me ( not like in the beginning) make plans with me, then on the day of the plans he would just ghost me. One day he would act interested the next silence.
i contacted him a month later and he acted like nothing happened. He was on a vacation and sent me a picture of another woman ( someone he allegedly met on the trip) to strike a reaction but i never gave him one. After the trip he came to my place and was extremely rude, accusing me of going on dates with a bunch of men. The next day he accused me of being an alcoholic and that he wanted nothing to do with me but said well maybe we can be "friends" then ghosted me
i assumed at this point it was over and i would never hear from him again. He contacted me on the holiday a month later acting like everything was great. We ended up hanging out a month or so later and when we hung out it went well, i thought things were going in the right direction.
after we hung out.. silence. I would try to text him and if he replied it would be very short then he just stopped replying. He ghosted me for almost three months. I thought he was done this time and of course he popped up again like nothing happened. At this point i was getting sick of if so i questioned him as to why he dissapeared and always does this. Of course he had some sob story about a injury and family member dying of cancer. I felt pity for him and he gave me an apology.. so i took him back stupidly.
things seemed to be going smooth for a couple months, of course until his family member died and his injury got better he never contacted me and was distant. Menawhile, i was there for him during the difficult time for him. He lied to me about the funeral and never wanted to chat. I was chasing him and he would always claim nothing was wrong but when i said i thought he used me when he was down he could not handle it and would always tell me he didnt care and to go away. I would get so upset i would try texting him to work it out he would barelt respond and if he did he would not be nice about it.
we did hang out a couple times after that, he would ignore me after. One day i was like hey i think you are seeing someone else, and i was like well ixam seeing someone so no problem if you are he said " buy bye good luck with your new guy stop contacting me" i was devastated and tried to get into contact with him for weeks then i just gave up and accepted it was over. He ended up contacting me a month later acting like everything was fine. He wanted to go out and have drinks i told him i would. He and i both seemed to have a great time. He ends up ignoring me again. I kept texting him trying to figure out what was wrong. He kept saying everything was fine and i said ok can we hang out again? He said maybe i was like why? He just kept saying maybe …
our last conversation we had… i said what is wrong ? He said nothing is wrong everything is fine. I asked him why he keeps saying maybe. He said " maybe but i dont want to see you right now" i said why? He saix " im just not feeling it, if i wanted to date i would" i said why did you contact me less then a week ago wanting to go out? He said i didnt.. even though he did. So i said should i just move on or what? He said whatever you want to do. So i said that he was really confusing me and asked him if he had anything more to say before i move on? My messages were turning green so i panicked he blocked me and reacted irrationally. I said " omg did you block me? My messages are not going through. Even texted him on my work phone asking what was up. And called him twice ( please dont judge me i know it is pathetic i never was this type of girl before him) so he replied and said " Ok I'll block you now" then immedietly blocked me. He has never blocked me before since I have met him he will just ghost. Is this ths final discard aka " grand finale? Did i just push him too far?
this has upset me so much its hard to even function.
From the past 2 years, the fights between them has intensed. Very intensed. Mind it when I use the word ‘fight’, I purely mean to say ‘my mother beating my father’. Because the moment my father tries to get himself free from my mother by holding her hand or pushing her a bit, my mother turns into a monster and the fight gets converted into a one sided war.
