I feel so lonely and it’s not like I don’t have loads of loving friends that want to see me but since splitting with ex there’s just been a void. I know I can be alone, and I’m not going to chase something I know won’t work for companionship, but I genuinely just want someone to love and no friendship is able to fill this desire… anyways looks like it’s just work then gym…

Same boat! Unfortunately, it’s a big boat, but at least a bunch of it are in it together. to awkwardly continue the bad nautical metaphor, I think we’ll all also hopefully get off the boat at a nice tropical destination. Hang in there and try not to drink the salt water!

This is what I low key fear. I’m pretty confident about not wanting to continue my relationship and I have a great support system, but here and there I do have the slightest fear that there will be a sense of loneliness despite the support of family and friends. Even in the relationship I feel lonely tho so I guess it’s for the best. Same- I just want someone to love and someone to reciprocate that feeling of love and affection.

And eventually finding someone new. I’ve always thought I was doomed at the end of each relationship but for some reason girls still seem to occasionally like me

I feel like Im on that boat and every time a stop is coming up to get off , the boat is moving to fast for me to hop off. So Im stuck on the boat watching all these lovely destinations past me by. I miss the joy of cuddling and just being with another person.

There are a bunch of directions we can take this really questionable nautical metaphor, but I’m trying to 1) make sure I’m a good spot to enjoy the stop when I get there and 2) make sure I have the courage to raise my voice to ask for them to stop the boat for me.

Notably, I’ve found it works not to refer to women as a destination, haha

Im a F and i was more so referring to a relationship as a destination

Its all good, we all looking for love

Had a second baby almost a year ago now and just can’t get back into work mode. I used to be a workaholic and now can’t find any motivation in my current job.

I don’t have the option of simply quitting, but contemplating switching to a true 9-5, no-stress job, possibly out of law, while they’re young. But that’s scary.

Hey folks,
Can someone tell what is the process to hire a contractor in amex ?
I am working as a contractor since Nov ‘21

I’ve been with my bf for 18 months and we have not said ‘I love you’ to one another. I keep hearing about how the best/healthiest relationships are a slow burn, you’re friends first, grow to love each other, etc. I’ve never been in a relationship as emotionally slow as this one. It feels like we are friends who sleep together. I can’t tell if it’s healthy or if we just have no emotional spark. Idk... I feel like wanting romance is not a bad thing, right?

I feel stuck. This is gonna sound crazy & it might just be the pre work out hitting me, but I feel stuck. I feel like I’m just on a hamster wheel every day. I’ve always been an entrepreneur by heart but I’ve always listened to people who fostered “the right advice” over taking the risk and following my dreams of starting a company. Not even sure what type of company to start but I’m tired of this feeling… could really use a mentor or some encouragement. I’m just so hungry but idk where to start.
