Sparkles posted here, right?

[gozf]

She deactivated and DD'd after a well deserved flaming on ML. I was surprised! She seemed to be taking it like a champ, and then she was gone! *poof*

Just thought you should know.

Regarding what?

You can get the gist from the comments:

Basically that her SO's child has special needs and is 9 years old, and that she was annoyed that her SO had to help him clean up in the bathroom after getting sick. In the first post, she sounded peeved at the kid. Later she clarified that she was peeved with SO being a helicopter parent. But she also made some smug sounding references to her perfectly healthy children (including a 4 year old who needs no wiping assistance!), and those comments rubbed people the wrong way.

That's the gist of it.

Helicopter parent? Sorry, I am dense.

When I broke my collar bone, my then BF now H had to help me go to the bathroom. I was drugged up and couldn't use my upper body well at all. I managed to wipe myself with my other arm, but he had to help me get my pants undone, sit down and stand up. HELICOPTER BOYFRIEND!

They hover over their child like a helicopter. Like, they never let their child make mistakes/have accidents because they follow them around with pillows and shit.

This made me smile. That was really sweet of him

I'm pretty sure that's a term reserved for people who hover around their kids and baby them.

He was great through the whole thing. He slept on an air mattress in the living room because I had to sleep in the recline (I had a floater piece and couldn't lay down) so that if I had to go to the bathroom in the night, he would be there. Also, Loratab makes me hyper, so I didn't sleep for a while and he changed friends discs in the middle of the night for me to watch. If I was a 9 year old kid, Sparkles would be annoyed.

Sparkles is an asshole.

This! I have no other words. The child is innocent and the father is very loving and caring which is something that seems like we don't run into too often with men.

[gozf]

It made me sad, too.

Where's missbetty? Wasn't she going to start posting on ML, now that she's in love and digging the benefits of marriage?

Also, lol at the idea that she -- or anyone -- would somehow graduate to ML. There are plenty of divorced ladies and women who have never been married on there!

And married women on here too scared to graduate to ML, LOL. I prefer being a dirty lurker there; I don't want to get my feelers hurt. I have a lot of feelings.

I would like a summary of the epic post on ML today. I took at peak and the gifs were awesome. No idea who anyone was though or what they were talking bout

I suspect you'd be a-ok. Really, they only flame you if you're dumb or an asshole. You're neither one!

[stephbfan]

I always liked Sparkles and I always thought of her as sweet but brutally honest

No, the boards are issue specific. You can only talk about marriage on married life, except for the non-benefits. The non-benefits of marriage you have to talk about on here, with all the bitter women. And here we can only trash talk men and be debbie downers UNLESS we are discussing fuck buddies. No sunshine and rainbows!
