No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Long story TLDR: met someone on a dating website she was lazy didn't work lied and emotionally abusive, her dad hated me when I gave her back.
For me the worst relationship was just before I turned 30. Before I met her I was sociable and quite stable financially (relevant later)
We met on a dating site got on fine, no major red flags we saw each other on the weekend mostly so lots of fun.
Eventually the lease on my flat share was coming up and we decided to move in together. We did and things started to change, turns out she was having trouble at work.
Not a major problem as I said I was financially OK and responsible with money. Then she "lost" her job. Eventually I found out she had quit.
Slowly I was isolated from my friends, we would have nights out with them and she would throw full on tantrums about the attention she wasn't getting. Then 3 more jobs came by and went with her "losing" them. Turns out she just didn't like working and expected me to do everything.
Finally I called her last job asked how she was fired and they told me she just left one day. I caught her at home while she was supposed to be at work one day (she left the job 2 weeks earlier and hadn't told me).
By now I had no friends and my accounts were near empty. I woke up one Saturday morning went down to the lease office and asked to be let out of the lease. The happiest news I received was the lease was up the previous month so I gave notice straight away.
Went home told her and started the process of packing. The day she left her dad picked her up and gave me the worst look I've ever seen literally a "fuck I have to pay for her now" look.
Best decision of my life.
