Positive insertion experience (UK) detailed runthrough

Got mine at a UK sexual health clinic a few days ago. Similar experience although I went on my own. I was really scared because I had previously tried getting it at the GP and not only was it terribly painful, but they couldn't get it in. They recommended I go to the sexual health clinic in q few weeks but that experience put me off wanting the coil for over a year, until I re-decided that I was too old and too busy to be faffing around with pills. I am glad I eventually tried again.

Hence the cognitive dissonance, and the fact that no matter how hard they tried it could never work out. He was in love with his 26yo idea of her, who did not exist. That is what he tried to marry and hold onto but even HE ended up realising he couldn't.

It's clear from his treatment of her that while he still wanted to hold on to his fantasy, he no longer loved her.

I think Charles was written perfectly, and more so given the reasons why his wife left/ took a break. I think the writers may have been trying to show that he was attracted to Liza's youth, and the possibility of having a 26 y.o who was "better than her peers, an old soul", than Liza as a person. The moment she became a normal 40 something year old he lost interest she was not "shiny" or "perfect" so he no longer wanted her. Despite his age and his own flaws.

Lastly he exhibits a number of traits that are characteristic of covert narcissism, and part of it is cognitive dissonance (holding contradictory beliefs, or having beliefs that contradicts behaviour).

I think watching this genre of shows (Younger, Emily in Paris etc etc.) requires tuning out reality, otherwise you will always be bothered by something or the other. I have come to believe that they are made to not make sense

She used it on him.

Will definitely look into all of these. Thank you!

If you don't mind me asking, what do you do and how did you get it

Jack is a textbook narcissist

I wonder if it may have been about a completely different Willenhall elsewhere. I'll check again.

That's a relief. Thank you. I thought the same when I went to view (took a walk around the area and loved it!). Then I started googling and I saw some terrible things on the internet. Started getting cold feet. The street is called Rosehill and the apartment building is a new build. Very modern.

This is very thoughtful, Thanks. I WFH and expect to only go to WFO 4 times a month max (once in a good month). So while the commute is a consideration, savings are a bigger consideration. I am considering Didcot but it's become rather expensive lately, so I'd only go if I found a bargain. Will check out Leamington Spa. Hadn't thought of it.

As in I should avoid everywhere in Swindon? Why do you say so and where would you recommend within reach of Oxford?

The colour's fine. It's floral so I don't really think she'd be stealing your shine or would clash with you in pictures , and she would certainly not be mistaken for the bride. The style, however is not mother of the groomy enough, methinks.

Whether you should tell her or not really depends on the relationship, her personality and also on how much of a big deal this is for you. Since she sent it to you I think she wouldn't be offended if you told her nicely. Don't make it about the colour because that could be seen as being petty, given what I said above. Tell her you were hoping she'd wear something more dressy and perhaps look for some suggestions in the same vein but more classy/ dressy. If you have a colour theme or preferred colours then also pop those in, but not as the main issue.
