She probably loved the guy when he was dangling her over the table to do a line of coke. I mean, she tried to leave you in the worst position possible and everyone already knows what the deal was.
Normal people don't want an opposite sex caregiver as an adult. There are fantastic men who take care of women and women who take care of men, and for a young person who's disabled, I get wanting someone young and fun who has similar interests. Martha the Retired Schoolmarm isn't going to be as fun as Mikey the Gay Hairdresser, and I don't imagine many great people hang around after the first interview, but still.
Caregivers can't really be friends, because at Alex's level, she's effectively their master and the caregivers are servants. Your servant is not your friend. She had to let an employee go, but she's making it weirdly personal. She let the situation get out of control with blurred lines letting him think he was a friend and not a servant. Most of the blame is on her. You don't get to be sore about the dinners and gifts now. Canceling the airline ticket was just mean. I'm sure if she'd explained the seating situation to the airlines, they could have him moved to another seat.
It feels like she enjoyed running a flophouse with her quirky gay friends with blue hair and just being this party girl because she got a lot of attention for being a crippled party girl, until another user pointed out she could copy another disabled mom influencer and get even more attention. From being a party girl to being a mom, Alex can do it all! And she can look pretty, too!
Maybe this isn't the right place, but what bothers me about Alex is what bothers me about those Dove beauty ads that are always telling all women they are beautiful. Being beautiful is fine, but it's so much less important than being kind, smart, driven, honest, or forgiving. (UGGO ALERT! UGGO ALERT!) Alex can't compete with a healthy, able-bodied woman in terms of being an attractive life partner and a life of consolation prizes like being made the center of attention at a gay bar because the patrons feel sorry for you is just a sad, maladaptive life.
She's right. Everything she's done so far could just be really terrible mistakes that have cast long shadows, but the first step is taking responsibility, followed by figuring out a means to live as independently as possible. It might mean having Old Reliable Edna the Hag for a caregiver show up and do your hair in the only way she knows how and sets you up for a boring day of online classes to be a social worker or whatever, but at least it would be stable and get her brain working.
I can't blame her for going crazy. If I just constantly surrounded myself with users and lived this stupid, aimless "influencer" lifestyle, I'd be depressed and anxious, too. People change and do better. I hope Alex does, and I hope every ounce of energy she puts into this trash fire, she puts into being a mom.
Also, the Redditors are worse than Alex. What a bunch of cowardly, sanctimonious degenerates. We all know it was probably a miserable group DM in Reddit. You bunch of warty old Macbeth witches, I'm sorry you're even less desirable and "successful" than Alex, but maybe you should go outside and touch grass, or volunteer at an animal shelter or with the disabled since you claim to care so much. Also, for the retards who post personal stuff on the accounts they shit on Alex with: I hope she Mikey-stalks you. You deserve it. Looking forward to the panic deletes that follow this post.
