Honestly, I think Mr. and Mrs. Bove were made for each other. Perfectly
matched in every way.

... and her daughter, parents, brother, employers, friends.....everyone
Julie knows, she endlessly chips away at. They have no skills, no
integrity, they are lazy demanding incompetents and Julie is a martyr to
all of them.

Of course we do; you mention often enough, the numerous ways he treats
you like dirt, plays mind games with insatiable demands, gives you the
run around, is rude, lazy, and inconsiderate around the home or when
you're ill or need help.

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 just posted about changing a door knob. 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.

She opens up "her side" of the marriage so certainly some people will
comment. 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?

Of course. 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.

Do you do that for your husband?

Are you asking me? No of course not, but not everyone is me.

Bullying makes me feel sick and that is what is going on here. Grab or even
invent a reason and bully away wooopeeee!

It's not bullying. She opens the way for commentary by sharing TMI, then
gets annoyed that people have something to say about it.

Were you ever in the military? I wasn't but I sure as heck met a lot who
are/were and the white glove test is very common.

I could make any sort of comment at all. Wouldn't matter what it was.
Someone would twist it into something else.

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.

That's because the bullies don't want to admit that they're bullying.

None of us truly know the situation, nor is it any of our business.
Maybe this is the outlet Julie needs to help keep her sanity. 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.

Yes, at times it is TMI, but mature people ignore or turn away. If
you jump in, you are bullying.

I agree completely, Cheri. She rarely has anything positive to say
about him, pretty much calls him lazy. That's what opens up these comments.

She tells us all this stuff that makes him sound like he cannot (and
will not) lift a finger. Can't cut a melon! Can't mop up some spilled
juice. Can't heat a can of soup.

We're supposed to think she's a martyr? The long suffering wife?
Sorry, I don't think so.

A number of people have dumped in him based on the stories that Bove has
related here. Given her record of lying, there is a good chance that she
made up those stories about him.

My father was career military and he certainly knew how to clean up
after himself. 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".

Then don't make any comments about your husband, family, friends.
Stop forever whining on with negative remarks about them.

You just said "Maybe this is the outlet Julie needs to help keep her
sanity."

If Julie just needed to get it all off her chest she could write a
private diary. Instead, she chooses to exhibit it all to strangers.

You're withholding the acknowledgement and feedback that she is very
clearly looking for.

Silently ignoring a cry for help, is emotional abuse, you mean old
bully.

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.

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.

That is not too far off the mark.

Just like you always feel the need to let your inner bitch out in front
of strangers. Why do you do that?
