I get so tired of how stupidly optimistic my SO is when it comes to SD9. "I don't think she would lie about that" after she's been caught in so many lies. "I don't think she will do that" when it's something that she has done on numerous occasions. "I don't think she wants to get grounded again" even though she constantly chooses to break the rules and get grounded on a regular basis. "I don't think she feels that way" when she's made it clear that's how she feels. What's crazy is that he always feels like an idiot once she proves him wrong and then he is furious! Sometimes he just makes excuses for her (like yesterday, when she decided not to put her scooter away correctly and I almost fell on my face). It's a revolving door. It's beyond irritating. I feel like he will be stupidly optimistic and constantly make excuses for her behavior for the rest of his life. So aggravating and unattractive...
