"I got voluntarily sterilized years ago. Most of my friends and family think I had a problem with a cyst on my fallopian tube true, but they didn't know that removing them entirely was elective to remove the cyst AND the chance of pregnancy.
It's kind of awkward sometimes with the 'You never know!' and 'God works miracles!' talks that their Catholic vantage point tells me (more themselves, really) when I say that I won't be having kids." - Reddit user abqkat
"I'm terrified of stickers and patterned tape. I don't know why. I don't remember any particular trauma?
But they freak me the fuck out. I saw the thumbnail for a video of a guy eating stickers in a dark alley yesterday, and I literally almost threw up. This is why I can never work with kids." -Reddit user insert_title_here
"I've always had a huge crush on my stepsister, and I always will.
Even though she's engaged and I've had a happy relationship with my girlfriend of six years, a giant part of me wishes it had ended up a different way."
-Reddit user GokType
"Up until recently, my boyfriend of six years was mentally, emotionally, and verbally abusive.
We are currently in couple's therapy and individual therapy." - Reddit user whyamidrunk
"I'm autistic. My parents believe with enough willpower, you can overcome anything.
My sister believes only children are autistic, and my best friend has been very vocal that she finds autistic people creepy. Only my husband and Reddit know me." -Reddit user thedollgirl
"When I was very little (probably around 3-4), I used to play a game with my parents where I'd go to the bathroom and brush my teeth before bed, and when I got to my room, they'd pretend to be asleep, and I'd find creative ways to "wake them up." Being so young, I thought my dad was superhero-style indestructible, and in thinking so, I decided to try something that would hurt a kid like me but wouldn't harm him at all since he was "big." I found a pencil laying on the desk and tried to stab him in the eye with it. Luckily, he was peeking and stopped me just before I did it.
To this day, it gives me a sinking feeling in my stomach, thinking about what might have happened..." - Reddit user L0wRyd3r
"I love my husband, but he doesn't love me. After five years of problems, it finally clicked. He loves having a wife, he loves not being alone, he loves our kids. I, however, am incidental.
I can't afford to leave him, and I don't really want to because of the kids. We don't hate each other by any means, but I basically have a roommate that I raise kids with. But our friends and family, we are the perfect, super-duper happy nerd family." - Reddit user deleted
"A server I worked with when I was a cook is now three months pregnant with my child. No one knows it's mine, and since we're no longer speaking, she thinks I don't know she's pregnant.
I really don't want kids, but I'm also having extreme moral issues with what I should do with this information." -Reddit user throwmeawayunplugged
"I like to peel the dead skin off the bottom of my feet (not to cause pain). I started keeping the bigger pieces in a small jar. When the jar filled up, I didn't want to throw it out so I donated it. My skin is now in a glass jar on display at the Mutter Museum in Philadelphia.
I sent a second jar over there too, as well as my favorite big pieces. As long as I keep filling them up, they'll keep taking them. Jar is about one-quarter full right now." -Reddit user peelingfan
"I was 13, and me and a friend went to a graveyard. We noticed some fresh plots with mere placards in plastic sleeves (about 6 of them) in place of tombstones. I decided to switch them all up.
To this very day, I feel horrible about this. And I will for the rest of my life." -Reddit user Tofubrain
"I'm a lesbian. This is the first time I've said it seeing as I have a boyfriend.
Edit: I told my boyfriend. He knew." -Reddit user deleted
"I love my daughter with all my heart, and I do everything for her. She's one of the most important people in my life, if not THE most important. But I never wanted to have her. I never even wanted to have children.
We took all the precautions, and even then, I got pregnant. I had no choice other than to carry the baby to term, and my ex didn't want me to put her up for adoption. Everybody thinks I'm alright now, but there are some days where I just can't do this anymore, and I lock myself in my bathroom and cry for hours. Things weren't supposed to be this way." -Reddit user xSolcii
"When I was a kid, I tried to chew the entire 6 feet of bubble tape gum, and when it became too much, I spit it on the ground and kicked it around in the dirt, so it looked like dog poop.
My dad ran it over with the mower, and it got all stuck up inside it, and I blamed it on my brother." -Reddit user deleted
"I watch the twilight-movies way too often. It's not that I like them very much, on the contrary, but I do find them soothing in a weird way...
It's like I love to hate them." -Reddit user sylvesther
"I’m a 36F and have special savings account for a future sugar baby when I’m old and wrinkled." -Reddit user oprahisnotgay
