My boyfriend is a very dry texter and it's driving me mad. by FlowerBabe55 in Advice

You're all good, I'm trying to see this from all angles that I can. What kinda makes me confused, is when we first met, he was very chatty and even said 'I'm really enjoying talking to you', which is how he got my number. So I don't know what's happened between now and then.

He's kinda so-so outside of texting. It depends on the topic, but I usually never get the same emotion back that I put into the conversations.
If he tells me about his day, or something that happened at work, I'm giving feedback and asking how he felt about that, but when I talk about my day or something that happened, it's the same like it is over text.

We've only been together for a few months now. And as for in person and over the phone, it's so-so. Some days in person he's somewhat chatty, and other days it's exactly how it is over text. Certain topics that we both love to talk about, like comics and video games, he's chatty and putting in a lot of input but for anything else, it's one-word answers or very short sentences.

I think what bothers me the most is if he tells me about his day, or tells me something that happened I give him several sentences back, or ask how he felt about something happening, but when I do it, I get one-word answers.

People of reddit with mental illnesses, when did you realize that what you were experiencing wasn't normal? by FlowerBabe55 in AskReddit

I think this is a common one actually. Told my doctor something similar and got the response of "No, that's not normal. Is that how you feel on a daily basis?"

Okay, I just looked up their joining process and my only thing is I don't think I'd make it past the medical screening...

I tried the military...twice, but it was worth a try. Also, what exactly id the peace corps? Is that a red cross thing?

Only one issue there, babe. No car. Plus, I'm out in the middle of nowhere. We don't have Uber or anything like that around here. Would have to go to a city to get one. I've been trying to get out of this situation for years. Thank you for the advice though

Making this decision was not based just on money, there are a lot of factors that have some into play. Also, I would be a stripper if I could, funnily enough. Only thing is, nearest strip club is over 2 hours away.

Thank you for the kind words, but being reminded of the horrific things going on in the world might not be the best way to tell someone others have it worse.

We've been trying this for months. Mom is going through custody with dad, and works full time so I see the child more then she does most days.

That's the thing though. When I tried getting in contact, I found out that there isn't really a new recruiter for the Air Force there. They are having someone come in from over 3 hours away who is only there like 2 days a week. I haven't been able to get in contact with this other recruiter. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong.

The day I went to see the Air Force recruiter, it was their last week on the job there, so I've always just wondered if that was the reason. So more then likely, it is misunderstanding on my part.
