Thanks @lone_ranger for the junk food reference, that's all you man
The simple solution is "move".
You are where you are because you have allowed yourself to be manipulated into believing you are somehow responsible for the life your Parents created.
Move away, go low or no contact with them and get some professional help. Although there is no shame in helping them in small ways when necessary, you are not going to save them and would be foolish to try.
I don’t know why, but I found myself looking at r/relationships
…
That’s the saddest hole I’ve ever seen on the internet.
Update on this. She reached out
Yesteday 5:09 PM — Her: ???? Yesterday, 8:54 PM — Her: I miss you
Today, 12:42 PM — Her: I also want you to meet (her puppy) Today, 3:41 PM — Her: Please? Her: I restocked on clothes I’m trying Me: Said you’d make it up. What did you have in mind? Today, 7:24 PM — Her: What if you come over one night and I make food and drinks
Ronnie Raygun's "Trickle Down Economics" IS working. Just not the way it was promised.
Also, that's not bathwater.
Ty for all the replies, for real.
Towards the end of bar hopping era it was becoming increasingly popular for women to approach a complete stranger, with her arms clasped behind her back, chest puffed up, titties on full display and with absolute confidence ask, Buy a stranger a drink?
My go to response was "Sure, I'd love one." To my surprise, I got a good number of free drinks this way. Weeded any woman with no interest in me.
I cheated on my girlfriend while drunk. Should I tell her?
My girlfriend and I have been dating five months, exclusive for almost two. We have an otherwise good relationship.
She’s an high quality girl, no doubt. After a minor disagreement, I got drunk and had a one-night stand with a random gal I met at the bar. It meant nothing emotionally, and I regret it. Totally uncalled for.
I do really care about my girlfriend, don’t want to lose her, and would never cheating again. I’m struggling with a lot of guilt and shame tho
I don’t want to tell her because I believe it would devastate her and likely end our relationship. But I also recognize that keeping it secret denies her the choice. I ultimately see almost zero upside to telling her other than absolving myself of the guilt
Is it possible to move forward from this or is telling her the only ethical option?

I don't know what the argument was about and I won't prod for more info, but I know that you'll be moving forward from this regardless. Where that might be, I can't say, but I can only pray it's towards a better outcomes in similar situations in your future.
Unless she suspects you passed onto her an STD, or the chick you banged has shown up with the ability to prove the baby in her arms is yours, the girlfriend doesn't need to know what you did. I know you're not Catholic, but if this is something you need to get off your chest face-to-face, either a priest, or someone else you trust and regard as a mentor are the better options while you're still sorting out your feelings on this.
I recall you mentioned this kind of thing before. That you get hammered to deal with stressful situations. You should probably look into that. That situations of conflict with your girlfriends are followed by heavy drinking is the bigger concern.
Read MoreI'm sure some of us had this happen, usually in our Teen years when we attempted to get familiar with a Girl who caught our eye.
You would be at some social event and your work up the balls to go talk to her, maybe ask her to dance or something like that.
You get turned down, maybe with some ease or a flat out Ewwww, Loser!
You walk away, and the next time you spot her she is with a friend or two, they all look at you and giggle. I consider that a deliberate and cruel act of psychological castration. If you happen to attend the same School, word gets spread, contorted, embellished and by the time the game of Chinese Whispers gets back to you, there isn't much left.
Honestly, I'm a bit surprised she doesn't remember that game, she probably played it.
