My [25F] husband [25M] claims to have been a Marine who served and was wounded in Afghanistan, yet has no proof and I cannot ask his family because “it was the worst thing he could have done to them by joining”. How can I truly find out?

My husband says he was a Marine Medic and went to Afghanistan. He has no proof (says his house caught on fire years ago and ruined everything; documents, etc.). Not even a dog tag. Says we can’t mention it around his family because it was such an awful experience for them to almost lose their only son.


I'm pretty sure the Marines don't have medics. They use Navy corpsmen for that role.

Physically or mentally? I think it's easy for people to underestimate the effects of dealing with an aged person with a mental handicap, otoh if I had a sibling with cerebral palsy or something where the effects were only physical I think I'd try longer because god drat are people cruel about it and when the person is totally capable of understanding how cruel everyone is, it's double cruel. supercruel.

For their situation, that's an unknown. Personally, I have a cousin that is mentally retarded, and my aunt and uncle cared for her until they were no longer capable (uncle is dead, aunt needs to move into a home herself). In hindsight, they were happy and well adjusted, so it likely takes acceptance from the start to make it a life you'd be satisfied with.

Yep, that's my brother. He has a low IQ, but is only on the low end of average, and was put into special ed classes because of his temperament. He was bullied badly, and he now deals with depression and can't deal with any social interaction. He's gone to a few trade schools (plumbing, autobody work, culinary school) and completed the course, but every time he'd get a job, he was too awkward to fit in.

I love how the guy who drugged his co-worker went with the angle that "technically you were high at work so it's YOU who would be fired" attempt at blackmail.
Edibles can really gently caress you up. I had to take my friend home from a club last week because she ate an incredibly powerful bunch of gummies before going. Was hallucinating and vomiting up a storm. Trying to drown the edibles in beer didn't work out either.

Anyways, hope the dude who lied about the brownie gets loving fired and possible criminal charges.

I was just traveling with a friend when he got a call from the woman who was checking on his cat for him. Seems she had eaten a few cookies she'd found in his fridge and was starting to feel weird. We hadn't even tried them yet, but the guy who made them said 'they're pretty potent'. The cat sitter had a bad night hallucinating and vomiting, but at least she won't eat anything else at my buddy's house anymore. Eating potent edibles when you're not expecting it really sucks.

"Just growing apart" is what happens when you are lazy and complacent about your marriage and your partner. On the course of a lifetime together people are going to grow and change. You can either do it together and intentionally or do it separately and potentially find yourself lying next to someone you don't recognize anymore in 20 years.
