I don’t know if I can do this job. I’m on some insane engagements for the next few months, and I don’t know how I’m supposed to balance the crazy hours and my personal life/relationship. I’m really...

I share a birthday with a sibling, which I love because it's a reason to be together and because I don't much care about my own birthday anyway. My mom has always made the cake they want, since they're a picky eater. This year I told her (again) that I don't like that, and my husband backed me up during the convo, and she's making an effort to make me a birthday cake I'll really love!! We haven't always had a great relationship and it means a lot to me that she's trying. 🥺

Is it normal to want to commit to someone but not their family? Like if it were just us in this world everything would be perfect wouldn’t hesitate to propose but when I think about how different our families/backgrounds are, I just don’t see how we can make this work? Plus there’s a language barrier there as well with them being foreigners, on top of religious differences and so much more? Anyone else can relate? I don’t know if love alone is enough

3 months post breakup… I seemed to be healing well and all the sudden this week I took a huge step back and feel heartbroken all over again. For context I was in a 4 year relationship including 1 year engaged and had to call my wedding off due to his infidelity. How can I shake this? 😔

How long do you cry after breakup? I cried for one night, and felt weird day after. Now I feel like I am way better, maybe it was because I know it had to happen (even if I was the one who got broken up with) and probably I see that more than hurt of relationship ending

Where parents are involved and which makes things so complicated as more people of other generation have different thinking and mindset. People spend years in relationship the. Breakup then get over it and then again go in another relationship for years and finally marry someone who they barely know. (Cont. In comment)

Is it me or you as well postponed the plans for marriage/ proposals if any? I feel Iike this is a good time to bond at least with texts,calls or an outdoor meet and talk anything except covid. Just doesn’t feel like the right mindset to think about marriage with what is going on.

Being single in this quarantine is the worst thing ever. This could have been such a fantastic bonding time with our S/O (if only we had one 🤷‍♀️)
