One thing's for sure, *"they" have bove very well trained, just like a dog (think come hither or go younder on demand, do this, do that, etc.)! Bove is at their becks and calls for 'service' 24/7/365. There's nothing like an unpaid live-in maid, housekeeper, nanny, driver, gopher, etc. Just don't require bove to fix/replace anything simple like door knobs and locks, then she's less than moronically useless.

She said "we" (RFC) made it sound so easy. But it didn't fit! Took her two days! Guess what? When you go to buy a door knob you take measurements. Check the size of the face plate, the strike plate, etc. If necessary take the old knob set with you to the hardware store and ask for help finding one to replace it. All it takes is common sense and a screwdriver. Truly. ![]() Jill |

True though that we don't know his side of the story. She does invite comments though, O. According to her, the guy is a tyrant and mentally/emotionally abusive as hell. The white glove test won me over years ago. Then the dinners on demand so she has to cook his meals in advance just so she can feed him within minutes of showing up unannounced. Do you do that for your husband? |

LOL Seriously, I just think that if you are living with someone, using their income as well as yours and availing yourself of anything else they might bring to the relationship, you at least owe it to them to not be bad mouthing them on social media, if it's that bad...leave them and make it on your own with no excuses as to why you can't, otherwise just shut up about it. My opinion only. Cheri |

All it takes is common sense and a screwdriver. Truly. ![]() I didn't go to the store. I ordered it online. And do you really think that they are making knobs like they used to? I couldn't even find a knob like the old one. One that used to be standard. So yes, they have changed the parts and they are not going to fit like they used to. I wanted a new handle for my sliding door. I asked Mr. Handyman to put one on. He could not. Why? That size is no longer being made. I'd have to hunt around for a used one which might not be any better than what I already have. Common sense has little to do with fixing things. People either know how to do it or they don't. And the face plate and strike plate were fine. Those were not the problems. |

In any case, it is not very mature to ridicule a person or their family with all the derogatory comments some make. It does not speak well of them either. Accept a person for what they are or ignore or kill file that person. |

Given her record of lying, there is a good chance that she made up those stories about him. |

In the military, if you can't make your bunk or spit-shine your shoes or clean a bathroom... you got the worst possible jobs or did not make it through boot camp. White glove tests? Does she expect us to believe her husband is pulling that? Posting negative things about him constantly is on her. Somehow I cannot see her getting off the couch long enough to dust, much less worry about white glove tests. But oh, if she puts up with that sort of crap... someone should inform here there is this thing called "divorce". Jill |

Instead, she chooses to exhibit it all to strangers. There is a very simple reason for that. She craves the attention. She airs all her dirty laundry in her quest for attention. One has to consider a couple of possibilities here. There is no doubt that there is a vortex of dysfunction on her family situation. It looks like she is trying to deflect the blame on her husband and her daughter. He is the guy she married and who she has stayed with. He works long hard hours while she is up all night posting on various groups and then sleeps most of the day. Just imagine what his input would be on these patters. The daughter is the product of her parenting. No need to say any more on that. > > You're withholding the acknowledgement and feedback that she is very > clearly looking for. Bingo. She is a narcissist, an attention whore of the first order. She just wants every thread to be about her so she can be the centre of attention. She craves the feedback. It doesn't matter if it is positive or negative, so long as people reply and talk about her. Bad comments are better than no comments at all. > > Silently ignoring a cry for help, is emotional abuse, you mean old > bully. That is not too far off the mark. |
