I'm sacrificing so much for this – time, sleep, my social life. Is it stupid to keep chasing this if I'm secretly miserable?

I went through the same and recently got the offer after almost a year of on and off again studying. Although I haven’t started yet, I’m glad I went through the journey not only for the result but because I didn’t give up.

This LOL

When I case prepped I met a bunch of other casers (we’d case each other). In the end me and this other person were the only ones to get offers and the reason why was because we stuck through with the prep. Everyone else I met had paused their prep due to other commitments, loss of faith, etc. So consistency def matters

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?

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
