3 months post breakup… I seemed to be healing well and all the sudden this week I took a huge step back and feel heartbroken all over again. For context I was in a 4 year relationship including 1 year engaged and had to call my wedding off due to his infidelity. How can I shake this? 😔

My ex husband was an extrovert and alcoholic. He went out with drinking buddies or anyone who would join him several times a week. We grew apart. Why is love so blind? It should have been obvious...

Anyone married but still have feelings about your ex? Like you love your SO but still have lingering feelings?

Genuine question. Why do people with children show pictures of their children to people with no children?

I've been working remotely for the past two years, and it's been great. I love working from home and being able to watch my kids grow up through their eyes as they play around me. But sometimes, when you're in this kind of situation, it's hard to know what to talk about with your coworkers.

I made a mistake. I talked with the ex this morning. He said he misses me. And that while he walk talking to the other woman, he wished he was talking to me instead. And when he saw that I didn’t respond to his texts, he drank a shit ton. And then called this morning.

He’s not willing to commit to the other women because he’s not over me.

I need to block him.

Is a post-PhD gap year to travel and be reminded of what life is like a bad idea?

I've been avoiding breaking up with someone (I've been dating off and on for a year) for the past few weeks because I can't decide the best way to do it. We're not compatible long-term. He's not seeing anyone else and I've told him I'm seeing other people but he's starting to have relationship expectations for me since we reconnected a few months ago. Any tips for having the conversation? I'd prefer to do it via text but I know people say it's not appropriate and it should be over the phone.

At 30, if you’re living under your parent’s roof but you’re supporting them, do you consider them to be living with you? Or are you still telling others that you live with them?

Shall I send my daughter (almost 5) back to PreK/childcare center in 2 weeks when they open after thanksgiving after shutting down preemptively due to a teacher and 2 parents getting covid? My work is accommodating with my partners and my working varying hours, however, I do not forsee that ongoing much as things get busy and my daughter can’t just watch tv all day until the vaccine comes out and the population is adequately inoculated.

Does anyone have any success stories of being introduced to their partner (arranged marriage) by parents/family friends as a first gen? My main concerns are:
1) raising family’s hopes
2) timeline pressure
3) others having visibility on the process
4) not being able to be my true authentic self with the person I would be introduced to

16 weeks and so worried all of the stress I’m under is going to hurt the baby. Between work, my own scary (non-pregnancy) health stuff, the pandemic, my mom (who is a widow and lives alone, basically isolated by choice due to covid) is having health issues, and pressures to keep billable hours up, I’ve been having complete breakdowns. Today I spent almost the entire day crying and now have to make up the billable time this weekend. I really worry abt what effect this will have on the babe.

How does it look to switch companies every two years? How do future employers perceive it?

I just want to say that I still support police officers across the country. I know that these are tough times for everyone and while I condemn the officers that use lethal force on unarmed civilians...I understand that not all officers act like that. I would probably get thrown out if this were any other bowl.

From a pest minimizing standpoint, how high up do y'alls aim to live

Had a recent job offer from Amazon TC 146 K sign on bonus 42K RSU 508 for a L6 Sr. Program manager based out of Nashville. This is barely more than the amount I make now(actually base is lower than what I make). I’m planning to ask for about 18% more, is that a high number? Does anyone have an idea how much Amazon negotiates? This is for a non tech role so I’m not sure of the exact salary range.
Any help would be appreciated

I just need some Brugal rum, Aventura or Romeo Santos songs on repeat all night…

Why do we always tell people “Be the best version of yourself before starting a relationship?”
I feel this is wrong…first, if you’re someone who constantly wants to be better, this doesn’t work. Also, what happens when you’re going through things and you’re not the best version? What happens is…the going gets tough and then one person leaves the other.

I’m so happy this bowl exists 🥹🫶🏼

Anyone with anxious attachment tendencies? Going through a breakup and I keep thinking about how I pushed him away and then am down on myself, replaying memories in my mind. At the end of the day, I think we were a bad match from the beginning and misaligned, but so hard not to beat myself over my anxious attachment during my relationship

I hate that I still want to hear from him. I just have no idea what I want him to say or what I want to say. I feel like if I get anywhere near him he’ll be able to sense my pain. Are we sure the no contact rule is only 21 days? I feel like I need 21 months.

Is going through a “hoe phase” an appropriate response to a break up? On one hand I think it’s good to get out of your head, but on the other hand it might be used to avoid the core issue.

He sent me a happy birthday GIF last night. Couldn’t even be bothered to type a message. It made me happy and angry at the same time. I’m not responding.

I hope he’s in as much pain as I am. The way he ended it was so cold and selfish and unlike how he was any other time with me. It was like a personality switch. I’ve never been so wrong about someone. I’m not sure how to process or recover from that part of it.

After 21 days of no contact, he contacted me. He told me he was in town (we were long distance) and then he got drunk at a bar and kept trying to get me to meet him. I replied once and said let’s talk tomorrow. We got coffee, then coffee turned into drinks and we spent the night together. He left this morning. I said everything I wanted to say, got answers from him and told him where he messed up/how he hurt me and he held himself accountable. He told me he had a panic attack (continued)

It’s week 5 for me of the breakup and even though I had a full and fun weekend with friends and people I love, I woke up today so so sad because I wanted to text my ex. I just feel overall so defeated and exhausted from sadness and unmotivated at work :(
