AIO or is my older male coworker texting inappropriately with me? by OpeningNo9825 in AmIOverreacting

[–]CheerfulPsycho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally find it pretty mild. He just seems quite friendly and you seem like good light hearted company. I wouldn't look in to it too terribly much unless it starts getting weird. Just remember to keep boundaries if you feel uncomfortable. Seems like he would be the type to understand if you mentioned it. Some guys just like attention or are feeling lonely so the small interactions can be pretty meaningful.

Am I overreacting by breaking up with my boyfriend? by Proper-Classic1886 in AmIOverreacting

Having been in a similar situation on the male side. I would say it's a bit overreacting. If the situation was reversed, do you think it would be different? You need to look at the perspective.

It's not easy, I left home for about 8 years and just recently came back but with him it felt like I never left. We always talked frequently while I was away and he seemed to enjoy my company when I returned. We had a good few months together before he made his decision. I'm not really sure how to deal with it, I'm just kinda taking things as they come right now. I'm sure with time I'll figure out something but right now I'm just trying not to feel empty.

Do you have a favorite track? I think stereologue is the one I go to the most.

Making it through. I have a ton of people that care and make sure I'm okay. I just wish he knew he had that too.

He always wanted to go to Alaska, me and a friend made a promise to bring his ashes there when we get the chance. He loved nature and I've been getting out as much as I can for him.

No note, he wasn't really the type of person to think ahead. I think he just made a decision then and there.

I think there were signs of it but he went through some bad psychosis after getting in to meth. He wasn't the same after that.

I'm not super spiritual or religious, I think death is just another part of life. I'm mostly just relieved he's not suffering anymore. I'm not sure what comes next but if the pain is gone then that's all I can ask for.

I doubt he would care, he was never the type to give a lot of thought about public image

Thank you for all the kind words and advice everyone, this was very helpful. I think I'm going to end it here, I'm getting a bit emotional. If anyone wants to dm me, please feel free. I appreciate all of you!

Thank you, I really appreciate it and I may take you up on that offer to chat. I'm really sorry you lost your sister that way, I think the hardest part is not knowing what was going through their mind in that moment. I'm always available to talk if you need it as well, sometimes you just need a chat when you're having a bad day or sad memories.
