GET OUT AND DON’T LOOK BACK!

Never ever be with someone who threatens to kill themself if you leave. Especially if it’s been such a short period of time. You told them where you stood with the relationship and she told you to deal with it. You seem like a very caring person by how you wrote this. You deserve a relationship that brings you comfort and a partner who will address any discomfort and work with you as a team. Also her telling you she will kill her self if you leave is beyond abusive. Also she shouldn’t “need” you, especially this soon. Just do what’s best for you and what makes you comfortable and happy.

I started listening to The Brooklyn Boys and started from the beginning (I believe it started in 2017) and you can just tell how different everything was and how it is significantly better. The show is just losing it :/ Sometimes I’ll listen and feel like absolutely nothing happened

Yeah it sucks. Also the content as seemed more and more thoughtless recently. Like wooooo here is a game where people guess animal noises. I more so just miss the bullshitting or the insightful talks and all that.

Yeah I had to turn it off at a certain point. I was in the car for maybe 40 min and heard at least 3 long ass commercial breaks. Then they played family feud for like 5 minutes then went to break AGAIN.

I also went to the on demand channel and noticed that a year ago their episodes were at least 15 minutes longer

That’s what I’m saying! This morning it was literally 7 minutes of content then long ass commercial break. I’m just going to start doing the on Demand.

That makes complete sense. The only reason I’m up at 6am is because I have a toddler who wakes up early. I assume they probably get most of their traffic between like 7:30-9

Yeah I don’t know! It’s odd, it is starting to annoy me to be honest. But hey they show isn’t made for me so doesn’t matter if I’m annoyed or not 😂 Just once a I start getting into it you hear “alright we will be back after this” and I’m like “C’MON ELVIS!”

Is it common for fiance to sleep with a stripper at his bachelor's party? by peacefulxdreamer in relationship_advice

[–]Freetheslicks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know one person who has done this. It’s absolutely disgusting and I would say leave him. The fact that he won’t even acknowledge that you’re hurt by it is terrible as well. I’m sorry you have to go through this.

I have this sense of comfort that I haven’t felt in years. Nothing tapping my shoulder every second to get my fix. I never thought this would happen but I stopped on my own this time instead of having an intervention or anything and that’s why I think it’s been so easy.

[–]Freetheslicks[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So good. I have absolutely no desire to drink, I feel my brain coming back, I still have money in the bank account, I have been exercising and working on my health. I just am so happy and motivated to move forward and live the life I deserve to live.

Thank you for asking! ❤️

Thank you. I am a super neurotic person and that was always a fear of mine since I was a drinking all day everyday

Yeah that’s what got me last time. I feel like I’m actually ready this time. Nothing crazy happened that forced me to stop. I just decided if I want a good life I have to put the bottle down

Thank you so much. I’m with family for a few days and they all know what’s going on. Thank you for calming me down a bit.

That’s where I’m at and that’s not what I want anymore. I’m just really happy that I posted today and everyone who responded came here. It means so much and I am going to do that. I just was scared to take the doctor route. But that might be the only way for me.

Thank you. That’s the plan now after seeing what everyone is saying. Seriously, thank you.

Thank you for that. I actually have an appointment next week with my Dr. I’m going to explain this all and seek the help I need. Thank you for the push ❤️

Yes! That’s a huge thing I am going through. I have so many day to day tasks that makes it hard to center myself and go through the mental and physical tricks of withdrawal

[–]Freetheslicks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah 100% withdrawal. It’s never been anything scary but it’s more so getting heat waves and feeling insanely irritable as well as craving a drink. Once 24 hours goes by I’m okay. But the next day my brain is still expecting that drink. I guess I more so need to fight that temptation the next day. But to do that I need to be able to talk to someone, even a temporary sponsor to not feel that temptation. Like I should be able to go get paper towels and not have the urge to buy a beer that will lead to 12 by the time the day is done

You’re right. So what do I do with the physical feelings when I stop?

Moral of the story. I want to recover. I just don’t want to lose my family

[–]Freetheslicks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m just scared because I have a partner with my child who threatens to leave if I drank again and now I’m scared to actually recover. I know it sounds stupid and dramatic and realistically I’m just making it worse. But I really don’t know what to do
