I know it's been said many times on here but I'd like to reiterate that early stages of dating suck!!! The emotional roller coaster screws with me.

Nah I just say what I feel and am straightforward. Not a fan of rollercoasters anyway.

D1 you're only one part of the equation. Those things don't prevent emotional rollercoaster

D1 that's great if it's always black and white for you, but that's not always the case, and it's not always avoidable with being straightforward.

True. Its tiring!

I feel ya. Keep going strong

^ but I think that sort of attitude helps to see through bullshit real quick. It's not about his/her action, it's about how you let it affect you.

That was a respond for A1 referring to D1's response. Phew

It's the grey area you don't want to come on too strong or come off disinterested. It's a fine line for both parties.

😔 total emotional and mental #uckery ..."what do they want??" 😩 haha

Usually when I'm straightforward about whether I'm interested or not, the other person reacts either positively or negatively. If it's negative you move on.

Yeah I can see that perspective, just offering my experience.

Last 5 years I've been fortunate enough to be working, especially thru the pandemic in a very successful ortho practice. Past months I've been struggling with a nagging hip injury I had surgery in February, went to work the next day. My body is failing & my mind is following, I've recently turned to alcohol. I've spoken to my PCP she gave me something to back off the booze & I've been going to therapy for hip & mh. How should I speak to my employer about taking time off? Prob another procedure
