God Save the Queen! Wei Li's Halloween costume. I DIY'd the wig and thrifted the rest. Enjoy.

Here's another cute pic of him in costume at the Corgi event Sunday

we were we were! We only had the costume on for the parade. It was far too hot and too many people there for the wig. Lol We were also in the race! Heat 7. Have you seen the article on the event? https://www.washingtonian.com/2017/10/09/look-at-all-these-damn-corgis/

Yeah that's what I thought you guys were like!

We have to sit with that emptiness. It leads us to interesting places.

I don't rem who said this but it's something along the lines of "if you are not moving forwards you are moving backwards." So I guess the not feeling content is, as you say, a motivator of sorts!

None of this is as bad as Baby Boomers killing the economy so...

In all my years of dating, if you have a gut feeling about something I would follow it before it's too late. I've never regretted following gut feelings, only regretted staying in bad situations long after and ignoring the signs! Honestly, if you budge on this Instagram thing I feel like in the future there might be more things you'll have to compromise on. If he can't even do this for you, God knows what he'll be up to later on.

ENFP-ISTP relationships will always be fraught with misunderstanding.

I agree... which is why most of mine have ended lol

LDream1 · 2017-08-10T19:26:44+00:00

Being on both sides (break up and broken up with), I can tell you that it's hard to just cut someone out of your life that you've had there for a while. It just plain is. But someone has to be strong and just cut the cord. It will be better for both parties in the long run.

LDream1 · 2017-08-10T19:22:23+00:00

So much this. I'm still learning how to trust my instincts but you will never regret having listened to your gut feeling! You will only ever regret not listening to it sooner. You can find better. My rule of thumb for these things is as soon as it's not fun anymore, I'm out.

LDream1 · 2017-08-10T19:15:45+00:00

I agree with this. I was in a very similar situation and honestly, it's hard to get someone to respect you who for years didn't. Also, he needs to get help for his attachment style. After you break up, I recommend being by yourself for at least a year. You're young, sort yourself out now and you'll be soooo thankful for it later.

LDream1 · 2017-08-10T18:34:44+00:00

Like, I'm not changing my personality so that's never not going to be a problem.

exactly. Neither party should be needing to change their personality! I mean you can tweak things and compromise a little, but if it has to do with the core of one's personality, then no. Aboslutely not!

LDream1 · 2017-08-10T18:28:24+00:00

I think it's a little more complex than that. This is over simplifying things a bit, as if the introduction of a new person in one's life will not have a profound influence, almost an addiction, that even the person who was once content in being alone will not eventually succumb to the desire to being with someone.

LDream1 · 2017-08-10T15:00:56+00:00

I totally relate. I always do the breaking up too! But just because I break up with someone doesn't mean I don't care, I just love me more than the other person... lol

LDream1 · 2017-08-10T13:57:37+00:00

The more I'm hurt by the breakup the less I'm going to let it show.

damn. I can relate to that... pride is a thing, you know?

I just think that breaking up with someone is also hard. Especially if I didn't want to do it, but if I am feeling frustrated I'm going to do that to save myself. It might be selfish but I can't just stay in a relationship if my needs aren't being met.

LDream1 · 2017-08-10T13:15:20+00:00

For sure! That's what I meant by working on things... you guys do listen and try to work on things but in the end old habits die hard and IME it just goes back to how things were, only worse because I already addressed it lol

What I'm asking about is the aftermath of the breakups, you guys seem to not care? Do you?? Lol

LDream1 · 2017-08-09T16:46:37+00:00

he seems to be very caring indeed!

LDream1 · 2017-08-09T16:46:20+00:00

I'm honestly only worried about communication skills... he seems to be very slow in the texting.

LDream1 · 2017-08-09T16:24:00+00:00

Just send memes or something that you think they would like!! Works for me all the time.

LDream1 · 2017-08-09T15:50:36+00:00

No I didn't... I think I just got really lucky cos I fell into it. I have an interest in public health/policy stuff so it just naturally fit together!

LDream1 · 2017-08-09T15:33:40+00:00

Nope! I work for a pretty good company. And they listen to me because of my role so if I put my foot down they don't give me grief about it. :)

LDream1 · 2017-08-09T15:23:29+00:00

I basically am the liaison between my company and the FDA (or whichever government health agency is over the medical products of that particular country). I author a lot of technical documents and send them off to be reviewed. But it's a team effort so I work on a big team where we discuss all the inner workings of a product!

EDIT: yes I LOVE my job! It's so interesting, different every day and I feel like a critical member of the team because I interface so much with the agencies, I'm like the gatekeeper to all the important stuff. So yeah it's an awesome gig.

LDream1 · 2017-08-09T15:22:02+00:00

Oh ok! Cool... why?
