Deeply afraid of being married to someone like the girl in sex/life on Netflix

So I just watched the trailer and the movie seems so dumb. First off, very few women have a hottie from their past that is still lurking in their life like that. Second, they are just trying to make a midlife crisis look sexy. Sure women cheat, but never that dramatically. I wouldn’t put this at the top of your list for worries.

Echo EY2. I do think about an ex periodically, but most often it’s something like “I wonder how he’s doing now, and my life is so, so, so much better than it would have been with him for a multitude of reasons that I was too immature and naive to really understand at the time.”

I also am happy with the life I’ve built with my husband (and in general) and have less than zero interest in revisiting any previous parts of my life and even less interest in connecting with any exes. Also, cheating is inviting drama that I don’t want in my life, even if I were interested. People watch movies and TV because for the most part our own lives are boring (at least in that respect) and that’s a really good thing.

You could have stopped after married. That’s what you should be afraid of. 😂

Not good or bad or anything lol but the trailer and first few episodes already don’t seem exactly as it appears. The books were solid but super different

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

My partner of 5 years ended our relationship last night. I’m shattered and feel absolutely sick, and I know the healing isn’t going to be easy. We were on the verge of an engagement and I was ready to spend the rest of my life with him.

I don’t know how to approach work during this time. I think I can get by, but I’m definitely not 100%. Should I talk to my boss about it? My team is close-knit and comfortable around each other, but I don’t know if it’s “appropriate.” What would you do?

I am in a long distance relationship with someone who is currently in B school. He spends pretty much all his breaks and holidays traveling with his classmates. Most of the time I am fine.

It’s really disappointing and I don’t know what else to tell him. Is that a reasonable ask or am I being dramatic?

sigh* last week Saturday my s/o & I broke up after our 3 year relationship. & it really been affecting me negatively — not eating, autopilot mode, self isolation & diving deep into work. Today I decided to go outside, where I picked up some food to go and went to an outdoor movie by myself; where I had the realization I just really enjoy being by myself. Idk, maybe I’m just better off single after so many failed relationships/am I being dramatic? but anyone else has given up on love?
