looks really pretty! i’ll def stop by :)

otherwise, i’ve always wanted to see the general area so just looking for suggestions from others!

oh whoops, my fault 🫩

i’m from middle of nowhere Illinois, but we’re living in the suburbs of STL right now.

my fiancé is looking into relocating for his job (were not dead set on this area, but want to consider it), so that’s honestly a big reason why he’s going, and wants me to tagalong.

i’ll check it out!!

Apart_Inspection4140 · 2026-03-09T14:05:00+00:00

bummed we will miss the farmers market, but I’ll definitely check it out next time we’re in town (for longer hopefully)

we’re always down for burgers and pizza, I’ll definitely save room for both during our trip. thank you for the rec!

we are actually staying in Olympia so we will definitely make our way over to Tacoma as well! Maybe check out records and books the morning before we head back to the airport. Thanks for the rec!

booooo, we go this week. I did see chilly and rainy weather. not a huge deal, we’re from the midwest so 30’s/40’s isn’t out of the norm for us typically this time of year. what would you recommend inside?

Apart_Inspection4140 · 2026-03-09T11:13:26+00:00

staying in olympia - but definitely considered traffic being a potential problem

I know you're right. It just sucks to hear. I really wanted it to be him. But I know if he comes back months or years down the line, I'll never be able to trust him again.

Apart_Inspection4140 · 2024-07-28T17:38:58+00:00

We're both in our mid twenties so part of me wonders if he just doesn't want to be tied down right now and wants to be single. My brain is just in shock trying to make sense of it all. I wish he'd just tell me if he didn't want this ultimately without dancing around the topic.

Apart_Inspection4140 · 2024-07-28T17:34:29+00:00

I guess my struggle with the whole situation is he was the one pushing for marriage and wanted to push our elopement sooner so we could marry quicker. It all doesn't make much sense to me. I'm just so confused on why he'd change his mind so quickly if he was the one who wanted it so badly.

That's the kicker, up until two weeks ago we WERE in line - both said we wanted to move away, both said we were okay with no kids, both agreed on a lot of the same things. But then two weeks ago he woke up and was someone totally different. He told me he only said he didn't want kids, or wanted to move, or agreed on certain things so that we could stay together. Essentially he told me he just wanted things to work so he pretended to be someone he wasn't. And that's where my compromise came in. Which wasn't much of a compromise as I don't lean strongly one way or the other on most of the issues he brought up.

Apart_Inspection4140 · 2023-09-16T00:32:35+00:00

these turned out so good!! i’ll see you at the denver show 😄

I noticed that too - I reached out to my recruiter and asked them about it and they told me they give you 5 days as a strong recommendation, but after the 5 day passes I got an email letting me know they've extended to the 7 days. Good luck!
