I constantly can’t make it past six months of dating someone. I’ve been with someone for a few months now and we’re getting closer to that milestone and it’s like something in my brain flips. Everything they do is suddenly driving me nuts. Some of it legitimate concerns that were there since the beginning of our relationship that I saw past because of the feelings I was developing. Others totally random stuff that’s driving me nuts. Any advice? I really thought I was ready for this.

Mine never lasted more than 3 haha. Sometimes it’s a good thing when you know it’s not gonna work and ending it instead of dragging it out. Do you think the reasons for breaking up with them are valid? I break up right away when I know we have different views of life, want different things, etc.

That’s what I’m trying to sort out. Unsure if it’s me being used to unhealthy relationships or actual concerns.

Yeah in a siMilar boat. Did some soul searching and i think mine was because i’ve been in a toxic relationship and i think i’ve got used to the highs-and-lows of it. Im in a healthy relationship now with a nice man, and im finding it dull I think. And i feel so bad for it! 😒

Exactly this haha. It’s definitely healthy and we work through things. So I can’t tell if it’s me wanting something more exciting so my mind is coming up with all these negatives or if there’s actually issues. Ugh.

I can’t even get a second date so you are better off than me hahah.

I’m definitely not lonely! I broke up with my ex even though he did make me happy. We just had no sexual connection. I am ready to meet someone but it will happen when it’s supposed to.

Good morning!

Still trying to figure out this whole Fishbowl thing, so here goes my first post.

I would love to get into provider credentialing, but all employers I've looked at want at least 3 years of experience. So, I'm looking at Provider Network Coordinator roles, because I'm finding some of those roles don't need AS MUCH experience. I'm a RHIT, and have been working in healthcare for nearly 10 years.

Any input on employers is appreciated!
