Perfect love exists. It just doesn’t exist forever.

nothing good lasts forever

I’ve loved so deep in my life but the future wasn’t there. I married for less of that deep, consuming love and more for practicality but I’m getting the life I envisioned. If you find someone out there who you can be deeply in love with and also create your dreams together- man that’s the jackpot.

I turn my dreams into reality as he provides me all the emotional support that I need, and help me release stress and tension when I need a break from working hard. I’m not showered in money (we have a modest and comfortable life), but I’m completely drenched in love. And he’s drenched in something else.

I am generally uncomfortable when I’m around my mother-in-law’s husband.

While he is overall a decent guy, his anger issues, yelling at his wife for the slightest issue, and insulting nature makes me uncomfortable and triggers my own anger due to his blatant disrespect for just about everyone around him.

My mother-in-law says he’s worked on things, but it’s been 10 years of this and I’m not sure I want such behavior around my wife and our kids since we’re trying to conceive soon (cont).

What do you do when you feel the goalpost has been/is being moved re: billable requirements? Like there's a spoken vs unspoken?

Given my other life responsibilities, this is creating a huge strain & I feel like this is slowly getting harder & harder on my spouse & kids. I'm grateful to have lots of good work but not sure how to course correct.

Does anyone have family members who constantly demand money because they feel like you’re rich now because you’re a lawyer? I’ve always wanted to be in a position to help my family but we all live in the high COL city so my salary doesn’t carry me as far as it would elsewhere. I’ve given a detailed summary of all of my expenses yet every month one family member in particular comes to me for rent money (not some, the full amount, and they refuse to get a job). It has become quite the burden.

Recently told a friend abt him (we were out she wanted to know who I was texting/who was picking me up) & now she’s trying to convince me that I’m just in denial (and so is he) of having feelings for each other. He’s a good guy, has his life together, and we have fun, but I don’t get why the arrangement we have is a problem/needs to be changed??
