Stupid decision of the day: things not going well with the girl I am interested in, got lonely so I read texts from my ex 5 years ago. I broke up with her because we had to go different paths. Now I realize that there may be noone that can love and appreciate my efforts as much as she did. Wanted to cry but no tears 🥲

You have an idealized version of her in your mind. It's not wrong to miss her but remember that she has flaws and I'd you'd stayed together it wouldn't have been all roses and sunshine

This is a good point. We both had flaws. But I miss the feeling of being loved and cared for. I have been lonely for so long, got into 2 short lived relationships and decided to focus on career. Until now, when I think I am in a position to love again, got turned down and who knows how long I will continue to be alone.
I keep thinking that I have been paying for my sins when breaking her heart with my decision back then. But these years I find myself asking, wasn't that enough? 🥺

In the mean time try to enjoy some of the advantages of being single and having money can afford! Travel to friends around the country, solo international travel or go with friends to places that are open. Buy some stuff you want that will make you feel better about yourself—gym membership, tennis lessons, new house items, whatever!

I need a little bit of guidance! I have a feeling like I'm being underpaid but I'm not sure what I can get away with asking for before it comes across as rude and entitled! I'm an instructor/student coordinator/ program developer for a business development and marketing training academy, I also run marketing for the digital marketing for their branding agency as well. I have a bachelor's degree and 2 full years of experience. What am I worth?
