Based on summary from my therapist I have the following issues:
Chronic feelings of loneliness and rejection, interpersonal conflict, low self-esteem, repeated experiences of being “ghosted” or dismissed by others, difficulty maintaining stable friendships and professional relationships.

Does any1 else have similar issues and how have you gotten through it? I get attached then let down, disappointed, ghosted and abandoned by people (who are extremely complex) and I know I have my faults.

I don't think that your therapist is taking an unbiased third person perspective. This is all from your view of the situation, which is valid but not the entire truth

My friend just got out of a relationship and hooked up with his ex's best friend a week later. They're now dating and seeing each other everyday.
I couldn't help but feel like this wasn't an appropriate thing to do for both parties. He also revealed that he cheated on his past exes.

I'm naturally feeling a bit weary of his character and questioning whether this is a friend I want to keep close in my life. Perhaps I'm being too judgmental?

Girlfriend of 3 years cheated on me right before we were supposed to leave the state and move in together. We broke up about 4 months ago.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Gift ideas for GF dad? We have been dating a year and a half, I get along with him super well. He is dealing with some medical complications so isn’t to active at the moment but loves cooking and golfing.

The other guy just says he likes paying for my stuff and there’s no agenda. Is this a little weird?

So I have been seeing a guy for 4 months. We have a pay disparity.. he earns less than I do (by quite a bit). He has mentioned a few times that he’s worried I’ll get bored of him when I know he can’t afford the same things I can. I think we are beginning to move past this, but now he’s starting to mention things like ‘I am really broke this month’, and last weekend he told me his mum has lost her job and he’ll have to probably pay her rent. I have a lot of sympathy for his situation … tbc
