I dislike family meetings in general. Luckily my family is not very technological so no one has come up with that idea.

And that’s totally ok!

That's one way at looking at it. Another way is to think what if this was the last time you would see them. Would you want yo see them?
I know I live in a different country to my family. I have told them when I die I don’t want them to pay to come to my funeral. If they can’t come to see me alive. Don’t come to see me dead!

Pull out the wine!

My bf took a guys trip to Caribbean to celebrate a good friend of 20+ year’s milestone bday. The friend’s bday is the day before mine. Normally bf and I trip for my bday over the holiday weekend. Bf will be back for my actual bday, and we’re taking a domestic trip next weekend. That said, I still feel a little miffed that we’re not spending this weekend together like normal. Are my feelings unreasonable?

It’s my birthday this weekend. I am in a new city, don’t have any friends here, and separated from the boy I moved here for. I had weekend project work planned to keep my mind off the fact that I’m alone. But the work just got cancelled.

It just feels like everything is against me lately. Last year, I went to key west and partied with my friends. This year I just want to hide from the world that seems to get harder and harder to get through the day.
