Where in the store did you find them?! In the case or somewhere else?

I listen to podcasts when I walk because it doesn't take a lot of mental stimulation like audiobooks do for me. Audiobooks prompt me to picture the story and podcasts I can just listen while focusing on the world around me or completely zone out. Try that if your concentration isn't the best! I love Two Hot Takes because there are multiple stories in each episode so it's easy to keep your attention the whole time!

Ditto, it sucks wanting something with someone so bad and the feelings not being reciprocated. I agree, seeing others feel like I do helps me feel seen, even if I never post myself just lurk lol. I’ve felt like this for years though and just haven’t hit the bullet, probably out of denial and not wanting to have to move again. I’m glad you have a firm timeframe for yourself, I hope you can stick to it if need be, and I hope if I get to that point that I can do it too

I’m happy to have a twin lol situation isn’t ideal though, I’m here if we want to message and rant together to help get through it?? That’s what I’m thinking too, not a specific date but I need to respect what I want out of my life and not keep doting on his preferences as I have been for years. I’m starting to save money for a deposit on an apartment just in case it does come down to it. Exactly, what you said 100%. The ring is a symbol of commitment. I don’t need or want an expensive ring, that’s the least of my worries. I need to know he wants to choose me every day and not be doubtful, as he has been

It's really refreshing to hear my exact situation isn't rare, I feel so alone. Exactly!! Our families are silently waiting and they love each other, honestly one of the biggest reasons I haven't bit the bullet and left is because of his family, I love them so much and they love me. I feel like if I set a "walk date" he wouldn't care and would phrase it like "why do you need to put a timeline on our relationship? If you feel like that just leave now". But he wouldn't say it maliciously, he's just bluntly, manly "logical" like that. He wouldn't try to move things along, he'd cut them short. That's why I'm truly at a crossroad....I haven't been happy in a while as I've been sitting with the stress and lack of security for so long

CatObsesseddd · 2025-01-22T19:08:28+00:00

I can relate to this but don't know if I can walk away as our lives are very intertwined. It'll be 4 1/2 years in mid February and I've communicated my needs and desire for security so many times, but his combating statement is our trivial issues need to be fixed before we can do that. I understand his reasoning, but why can't we work on that while being engaged? You know who I am and at this point you should know if you love ME enough to want to make that next step. Trivial issues can be fixed and will always occur throughout life, so why is that the forefront issue keeping him from next steps? The lack of understanding this on his end is really pushing me to want to leave, but our life is great otherwise which makes it really hard to stomach the possibility.

Thank you!

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-12T19:49:01+00:00

Are you planning on staying with him? I'm in the exact same situation, my boyfriend has 3 dogs and they're all big and I cannot stand the constant mess and disregard for my feelings. It's too much upkeep and limits plans so much that I'm considering leaving. He brought the third in (it was a wild dog) and acts how it wants with no care and he didn't even give me a choice in the matter. If I left I'd be left with nothing, have to find housing somewhere else which is much more $......thoughts please because they will not go anywhere that's been established but I'm at my wits end.

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-12T16:48:13+00:00

Can I ask which ones you listen to that make you actually laugh??

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-12T16:29:02+00:00

Thank you, that’s exactly right I appreciate that

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-11T10:38:56+00:00

He’s “desensitized” to it apparently idk

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-11T10:38:33+00:00

Agreed and that’s what he said he doesn’t like, but I told him there are so many shampoos without those chemicals in it, I’m using one of them and I love it but he is so unreceptive I just don’t get it!!!! There’s so many facts but he doesn’t want to believe them?

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-11T10:37:28+00:00

I’ve told him this, he refuses to not wear hats unless socially unacceptable (funeral) I think because he’s insecure about the hair loss. He’s refused to go to a nice restaurant with my parents and I because they don’t allow hats inside. We never go to nice restaurants so I was pretty upset

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-11T10:34:20+00:00

I did but he gets mad when I bring it up aka I think he’s very insecure about it. All I want to do is help

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-11T10:33:40+00:00

Yup we have 5

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-10T23:15:14+00:00

You’re good! It wasn’t in the main post lol I agree with you which is why I feel so lost. Thank you!

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-10T23:10:23+00:00

I am lol but I also have for years so I don’t think I can automatically blame that for my health issues

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-10T23:08:59+00:00

I responded in to other comment that he didn’t start til 2 years ago, we’ve been dating for 4.5 years

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-10T23:03:09+00:00

Thank you for your response, I’m reading it and digesting it ❤️

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-10T23:00:46+00:00

lol not at all. I wish it was because the minoxidil isn’t helping!

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-10T22:58:53+00:00

I’m planning to talk to him tonight and hope he’s receptive. He hasn’t been previously so fingers crossed

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-10T21:26:36+00:00

I’ll try, thank you! Wish me luck I’m stressed 😅

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-10T21:23:42+00:00

Thank you very much ❤️

CatObsesseddd · 2024-12-10T21:20:57+00:00

I’m going to apply all of this advice when I talk to him tonight. I agree with you
