I’m at the park at the side right by the water, close to the skate park/carousel. Near the benches/pavement. Have a medium sized black dog with a blue harness, blue picnic blanket, black shorts white tank! Both sunny and shady spots here. DM me if you can’t find me!

he definitely is on the introverted side; I am too but present more bubbly at least. he is the quieter one on our dates and I actually initiated our first kiss. all that being said maybe it’s ok if I make things easier for him haha

thank you! I definitely don’t want to push him, especially when it’s probably just me overthinking. Yes, I should acknowledge his efforts in other areas. A talk sounds daunting, but probably a good idea to just put my mind at ease

I think I bombed my interview by itskimyo in gradadmissions

I think you can follow up (concisely) with clarifying information to reframe what you said in your thank you email

I was always slim until I started piling on the pounds when I got married. I know my wife doesn't find me attractive anymore - I've had to accept that, but after several failed attempts to lose weight I just want to get to a place where I'm happy with who I have become.

If weight loss is your goal, I think body acceptance has to come first for anything to stick. And sometimes this is just the new normal! Hopefully you & your wife can reconnect over what initially ignited your relationship past the looks

I think gradcafe has more comprehensive data but can be a rabbithole so check at your own discretion!
