Any kind of relationship is a big responsibility. It requires intention, effort, and accountability.

Going with the flow without clarity might seem easy in the moment, but it often leads to confusion and disappointment. People aren’t something you gamble with.

If you’re going to invest your time, your emotions, and your future, it should be done thoughtfully and with purpose. Relationships deserve that level of seriousness.

Been having trouble moving on since girlfriend ended relationship 3 weeks ago after 2+ years of dating.

Now I just have so many regrets that I let her go. I know we still love each other and left on “good” terms but can’t forgive myself for my lack of action.

Started talking to this guy through group a group telegram and one day he offered to pay for my lunch as I had helped him out with something.

I'm naturally feeling a bit weary of his character and questioning whether this is a friend I want to keep close in my life. Perhaps I'm being too judgmental?

At my uncles wedding in Madrid I remember lying down on the grass in the courtyard after their first dance and crying, my Dad came and saw me, laid down in his suit beside me and asked what was wrong.

“I know my boyfriend wouldn’t dance with me like that at our wedding”

And we just lay there as I cried, and then got up. Had a drink.

Said boyfriend left years ago, and now I have a wonderful man who just asked me what type of dance lessons I want for our wedding next year.

Don’t give up.

My girlfriend and I have been in a long distance relationship for 8 months now. We talk every single day online and recently I went to visit her for around a month.
