I've really grown apart from one of my best friends the last 5 months. She started dating a guy I went on a few dates with before that rejected me.
All I hear now is how they "were blind this whole time and saw the light". He's apparently proposing to her with a 2.5 carat diamond and they're getting married once covid restrictions lift.
I feel so angry and sickened whenever I'm reminded of them. 😣🤢 Yaya I know I should be happy for them but that's why I'm posting here 🤡

How long ago did you date him and how old are you and your best friend? Does she know you dated him? I don't understand best friends dating each other's exes, that's a no go in my book. I'd never do that to a friend.

I wouldn’t call someone you went on a few casual dates with “an ex”

Got an email from the California Bar today about withdrawing due to COVID. I got sick for a week with the non-COVID flu and have been considering withdrawing and taking the July exam instead, so I guess I’m not alone. Is anybody on here who either withdrew or is considering withdrawing from the Feb bar because of illness?

Just wanted to share this with people who would understand. Had 4 IEP meetings last week. When the case manager asked one mother if she had any concerns she said her only concern was that her kindergarten son with autism loved me so much she was afraid of him being promoted and being out of my room. I told her not to worry, in our program I will have him for 2 more years. Boy that made me feel good.

Trying out bumble bff. Met a girl for drinks last week and we seemed to hit it off. We mentioned doing something again and coordinating later in the week. I texted her today to ask if she was still interested in doing something this week and she said she was super busy with a huge project and apologized. But she didn’t offer the weekend (which I feel is included in “this week”), didn’t say “lets do another time” or anything like that. Should I take the L and count her as not rly interested 🥲

The managing partner of my office likes to make jokes about Covid now that it is “over” (either in small group convos or speeches to the office). My dad died from Covid, and I honestly feel like it’s so insensitive for him to make these comments when he knows that I lost my dad to it. Our office isn’t that big, and I don’t think many people forget being told that someone they know lost someone from Covid. It has made me consider leaving because of it, but the economy isn’t great.

One year ago this weekend my mother was dying of Covid 2000 miles away from me. On Mother's Day we were told to make a decision to either consent to an invasive surgery that may do nothing or put her on hospice. She died on her own while my siblings and I tried to decide. I need to crawl into a cave this weekend until this holiday passes.
