OP please: LISTEN. TO. THIS. I don't care what you think about drugs, I don't care you're over 50 and therefore you have grown up convinced that hard drugs destroy people and cannot give any benefit…
Cheated on after 10.5 years together, divorced at 11 years together. — Hi Everyone, This is half venting and half hoping for advice or people to listen. I'm at a low point right now so I thought reaching out to a community might be beneficial as opposed to holding it…
2 monts into breakup. Here's what I'd tell my younger self. — 1. **Zero Contact.** Unfollow her, and if necessary, unfollow people in her inner circle. I unfollowed her **close group of friends** and her sister. I have absolutely nothing against them; I just don…
My ex turned into a middle aged fuckboy — Recently learned that my (40F) ex boyfriend (42M) of 6 years has been having picking up young (20s maybe early 30s) girls at the bar every weekend and having sex. There may be a more constant girl in…
What’s something you wish you could tell your parents but never will? — I’ll start: I don’t exist to make you feel better about yourselves as people and as parents. I have achieved everything I have in life not because of you but despite you. If having children was going …
Their “Karma” doesn’t make you feel better. — This last year has been so hard. We went to court for temporary orders in regard to our kids. Awful allegations made against me. Fighting to prove I’m not what he claims. But I finally got results a…
You could find a company to work for that has their own on prem servers still . Then you could do some datacenter visits from time to time and see the servers . Might make you feel better lol
Did leaving this comment make you feel better or stronger? Because I don’t really see a point in coming under a post where one DA asks other DAs about their experience. Your lack of empathy and knowle…
I see you're posting again. No blame here- I am commending you for posting here instead of reaching out to your friend. Give her space. She is clearly nonverbally communicating that she needs it. T…
So much time has gone by and they abandoned themselves by not addressing the matter and instead probably making narratives in their own head about the whole thing. They sound like they felt slighted b…
I'm not the person you responded to, but in my opinion, insecure attachment patterns (like trauma dumping early on, keeping score, or obsessively seeking out your partner's time) create "faux-closenes…
What does it serve you to hold onto this hurt? You are repeating the same narratives about the break up with you as the victim. You have not healed if you cannot reframe this break up without you as t…
Are you on the apps? Or in any hobby groups? Or go out socialising? I’m not saying it’s easy even if you do all those, but I guess the more you do those the better the chances. I do understand how y…
I’m not talking about a conversation. You need to change your energy and be as comfortable as possible talking to people. I am saying walk around the city and say - cute dog. Cute kid. Make one perso…
I just got out of a very similar situation myself. Me and my bf broke up less than a week ago. Exactly what you described. The fun moments, drives, late night food trips, friends houses, all of it. I …
Idk if this will make you feel better but here’s my personal experience: I used to feel this way about my ex; he was the “best I’d ever had”. But I met someone shortly after the break up who was 1000x…
does he not realise chatgpt is designed to hype you up about the stuff you are telling it? its made to suck off your ego to make you feel better so you keep using it
I feel you. To me it's unhelpful because like you said A) the choice was between being strong and dying B) I don't want to have to be strong anymore C) being strong might cheer you up if you have a sm…
Of course you are welcome!! If it helps rekindle other peoples relationship then glad to be here for you. Back to this: Hmmm interesting so you both have talked about it multiple times but he does…
You keep acting as if your parents and your sister are your kids whom you should have managed better. They're not. You made a suggestion and they went along with it. If you hadn't made that suggestion…
Yeah I get you, we already done the job to survive, we need rest and peace. Best advice is to get on disability and to have a therapist if you can. If you cannot just rest and do things that make you…
Unfortunately, the reason why she went cold was because she probably lost respect for you based on your behavior. I know this because she told you she was going to talk to other guys and instead of yo…
I wouldn’t send this. I’ve been there, it won’t make you feel better. It won’t make her consider coming back. It’s done. Let her go. It’s harsh but if she wanted to be with you she would. Have some se…
First, don’t drink or use drugs. Stay clear headed. Go to the gym. You can work off your feelings and produce endorphins, which will make you feel better. Get therapy if you can. See a lawyer. Kn…
Dear Lord. So…you found her when you were looking for someone else to trauma dump on. You used the term “ghosted” you when you: 1. Never met 2. Were not in any kind of a relationship, you were intern…
If possible take a couple of days off, use the first days to mourn and acknowledge what you've been through. Then write down a list of all the problems you had in the marriage, these are things that y…
That's a gut punch, and there is really nothing anyone can say to you to make you feel better. The only thing to do at the moment in grieve. It's the human thing to do. I don't know how long it's goi…
And doing little things that make you feel better even for a moment, like some music or being outside.
I think so many people focus on supporting the avoidant person and being a healthy secure base that they forget to check in with themselves and ask, am I even ok with a relationship that looks like th…
Guys use google ai to make you feel better ask what are the chances and it will run it for you
I have been through this, twice. Your husband is having an affair. He is retconning the story of your marriage to make you own to be the problem so he can justify his heinous behaviour. Please, liste…
You make your own “closure” dude. Stop relying on a person that betrayed you to make YOU feel better about their shitty ways. Plus you said you neglected the relationship. There that’s your closure.
“I keep getting mocked by my boyfriend…” No. Right there. The entire point of having a romantic partner is that they make you feel better and enjoy your life more. Why bother?
He’s using your embarrassment of being an “ex wife” against you babe… this is very manipulative. He said he needed something new and left it at that… just to come back a few weeks later with a 19 yo…
A pet might make you feel better.
This is exactly what I needed to see today. When you're in the thick of a fresh breakup it genuinely feels impossible to imagine ever getting to a place like this — mutual closure, no bitterness, just…
Idk if this will make you feel better, but my abuse was often physical, I was under no delusions that I wasn't abused, but I could not access therapy for many years because of financial reasons. Now a…
At least you’ve recognized that your desire for answers has strayed into an unhealthy place. So — chalk it up to some people are just like that - they will go fast with such intensity that it looks a…
This is super raw for you, trust me, don't say any of this to her. Not a word. It will never make you feel better. Ghost her. 100% ghost her. Trust me.
So. Let’s be clear. He wants you to not do something that will make you feel better about yourself because? Many men love little boobs. That’s irrelevant. What matters is what you want. My guess is h…
yeah i’ve felt that before, and i don’t think most people are acting from one clear place like i’m happy or i’m not, it’s usually a mix depending on the moment, sometimes you chase things hoping they’…
find out if he has a S O and if he does send her the texts. it’ll make you feel better
I know man, a terrible experience..sometimes you just wish things were different. So far what’s been helping the most is talking to friends about it who don’t mind hearing it over and over when you fe…
Hey, block her. Delete everything that has to do with her. Block her number and her socials. Throw out all the gifts. Don't believe her words, don't keep replaying her promises. Focus on her actions a…
You don’t have to explain. Tell her that you know, tell her what you know if she keeps denying it, but you don’t have to tell her how you found out. Tell her you’re done and she has <insert appropr…
The whole "it's her loss" thing is just something people say to try and make you feel better, but it doesn't help when you're the one falling apart. You need to eat something though - even if it's jus…
Q: Does this behavior really make you feel better about yourself in a sustaining way? A: "sustaining" is leading, consider your ideal outcome, what you wish to believe about someone you are still at…
Doesn't sound like anything was truly resolved, it sounds like you hurt your boyfriend's feelings and then he tried to make you feel better. If roles were reversed, I feel like a lot more people woul…
Being blocked is torture. It is designed to make you feel how you're feeling. I will never ever forget how that feels. I wish I had something that would make you feel better. None of this was your fau…
Funny how he's the one with the problem and not doing boo to work on it. I wonder if this theme carries over to other parts of your marriage? This man is sabatoging your marriage because he feels i…
Control is the biggest. But coming from a former eldest daughter (I’m no contact now), the why doesn’t really matter. It won’t make you feel better. Make your moves in silence and set yourself up to b…
All I’ll say is, the more you focus on her ex the less focus you can put on yourself. The more you refuse to believe your current partner when she tells you what she thinks, the more dysfunctional the…
I understand that finance and family problems can be hard but you always have to put yourself first. I always went out my way to help out my ex when she had problems with her family or financial situa…
i felt the same a month ago but i promise it gets better once you let time passes and have your thoughts processed! i was in the same situation and he looks as if he was doing well w/o me and i was ho…
If you still have people in your life that know both of you it's not necessarily too late, especially if it will make you feel better. Maybe that's bad advice, idk, but it's not yours to carry. Are y…
I know mediation is a game-changer, and I experienced that firsthand for a while. But I couldn't continue that for a long time, and I feel there's nothing that comes closer to meditation when you want…
