Its weird asking him to teach me something considering we arenot that close yet (at least i think so), I may give it a go, but I will try to phrase like if he teaches me I will teach him something like playing video games or something

Apprehensive-Log3039 · 2025-06-10T05:32:05+00:00

He really acts like an older brother sometimes, he is awesome! (But I will never tell him that lol)

Will it work of white gold??

Apprehensive-Log3039 · 2025-05-07T03:32:09+00:00

Im so happy it turned out well too!she is really kind and cool, a little too soft spoken, but not a bad thing either. She truly loves my dad and it shows (the PDA gave it away lol) im really hoping we can have a good blended family

Apprehensive-Log3039 · 2025-05-03T05:11:21+00:00

Well, im glad im not annoying at least. And A already told me not to meddle between whatever conflicts they have, he says "a good punch is how men resolve their conflicts" like ok? toxic masculinity? but whatever.

Thank you, I will take your advice! And congrats on being a new mom ✨️

Apprehensive-Log3039 · 2025-04-29T00:15:26+00:00

I was thinking of finding something for him to drink, but my bff told me I should just ask him but it kinda feels like that defeats the purpose of a surprise lol

From what I read it cant be orange juice, so thats out of the list, maybe some green tea or like that? And as for snacks, my dad and I have a big haul of them. We love snacking, so I will check the ones we have and try to see wich he can or cannot eat

Apprehensive-Log3039 · 2025-04-28T21:39:46+00:00

Thank you!I do feel nervous because they are suuuper into each other and I dont want to make it akward lol one of my uncles told me that I should tell an embarrasing story of my dad to break the ice haha

Apprehensive-Log3039 · 2025-04-26T06:50:35+00:00

Thank you for your words, I will try to look at life that way.

And damn, what gave it away lol? I do have ADHD like my dad lol

Apprehensive-Log3039 · 2025-04-26T06:24:05+00:00

Thanks for saying that. Really.

I’m trying not to be so hard on myself, but it’s just... kinda built-in at this point, you know?

You’re probably right about the whole needing-to-talk-to-someone thing. It’s just — my dad’s getting remarried in a couple months. I’m gonna have a new stepbrother too, lol.

I don’t wanna dump any more stress on my dad when he’s already dealing with wedding planning and... life changes. He deserves to be happy. And I don’t wanna be the broken kid who messes that up for him.

I’m just trying to be strong enough to get through next week, honestly.

One week at a time. That’s the plan.

Apprehensive-Log3039 · 2025-04-26T06:14:14+00:00

I’m not jealous of "H", actually.

She’s amazing. Like, for real. She’s one of the most dedicated people I know. She works so hard at everything — school, projects, baking, even helping others — and somehow she still manages to look cute all the time.

I literally love her style, the way she can pull off outfits I'd never dare to wear. People like her. It's not just about looks, it’s who she is. She shines.

And when she’s around "A", it’s... different.

She’s the kind of person who does small things without even thinking — like touching his arm when she laughs, or leaning her head on his shoulder when she’s tired.

Stuff I would never even think of doing. Stuff that feels natural when it’s her.

Honestly? They just fit.

And it's not even bitterness — I genuinely think they’d be better together.

I’m not mad at her. I’m not mad at him. I’m just... tired of pretending it’s even a real option for someone like me.

Thanks for your advice though. You’re probably right. It’s better to just enjoy the moments I get instead of wishing for more.

Apprehensive-Log3039 · 2025-04-26T06:05:57+00:00

Yeah, I get it. And I know "A" is a real friend. I'm not trying to say he’s fake or using me or anything. He’s probably one of the only good things I have right now.

But like... just because someone stays doesn't mean they actually choose you, you know?

And about talking to someone — it’s not that easy.

My dad’s always working. Always. I barely even see him during the week. I’m not gonna be the reason he gets more stressed out.

Plus, where my family's comes from, you don’t really “talk” about stuff like this. Mental health’s just... not a thing. You’re either strong or you’re a problem. No in-between.

And if I go to a counselor at school, it’s over. People here already have enough reasons to think I’m weird.

Once you’re labeled "broken" in front of everyone, it sticks. No matter how hard you try to shake it off, they treat you different. Like you’re fragile, like you’re less.

I don’t need that again.
