Reply to what is a subtle sign that you are being gaslighted? or that you are dealing with the effects of gaslighting? by hisokasgxthkitty
If they never apologize. Apologizing is normal, nobody is perfect, but if you realize your partner never apologizes you'll probably also realize it's because they rarely ever take responsibility when something goes wrong. If they show up late, it's because their roommate misplaced their keys, the bus was late, they had to stop for gas, traffic was crazy, etc. If your feelings are hurt it's because you misinterpreted what they said, you gave them the impression that you actually would've liked it, they actually meant to do it another way but something else caused it to change. If they do something wrong it's because you drove them to it, you actually don't understand the situation, you're jumping to conclusions, what they did wasn't wrong in the first place, you're trying to control them by saying that that's wrong.
Sometimes it's obvious, but other times you get sucked into what they're saying and you don't see what's happening.

I'm not a religious person, but if that works for you then I'm very glad you have that.

Reply to Men, what would you do if you went out on a date with a trans woman and you smashed and didn’t realize they were trans until they finally told you a day later? by [deleted]
"Men, what if you went on a date with a woman?" Is essentially what you're asking. Not just because trans women are women, but because from the way you phrase it, it sounds like I wouldn't have been able to tell she was trans until she mentioned it, so she might as well just not mention that she's trans since obviously it doesn't matter.

Reply to How do you know if someone is actually toxic if they insist they are always joking? by RxstySp00ns
If you feel like being around them makes you worse in some way (your mood, sucks all the fun out of something, makes you feel bad, etc.) then they're probably toxic.
