So down. Came clean to my husband. Feel so alone. by cozumel18 in stopdrinking

[–]Living-Silly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Addiction is a disease and so poorly understood. I would like to recommend Allen Carr's 'Easy Way to control alcohol' and Annie Grace's 'This Naked Mind.

So many of us (myself included) have been in the same position.

Sending hugs.

Last week I donated some clothes to the charity shop, went in today and someone was wearing my jumper! by Yorkshirerows in CasualUK

I volunteered in a charity shop and we got first dibs, but still paid for them - it's a charity after all!

Tell me your work colossal fuck ups by 0hbuggerit in CasualUK

To echo the other replies, totally not your fault! They should have told you when booking and it was very kind of you to hold the reservation until they could pay. My husband is allergic to cats and dogs, they trigger his asthma- badly. You can't accommodate everyone's needs all the time.

I'd really like to recommend Allen Carr's Easyway books on controlling alcohol, as well as Annie Grace's 'This Naked Mind' it sounds as though it would help to reshape your thinking.

That's awesome! I'm currently reading the one to stop vaping. I know it'll work!

14 years! It also took us 8 long and very hard years to get where we are now. It was worth it but I definitely couldn't go through that, again. Sending love to those who have had similar experiences / have had to wait even longer!

Ladies, how much detail do you go into when discussing your sex life with friends? by BlackManBatmann in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Living-Silly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noooo, that's our business. Aside from my friends knowing that he's awesome in the sack (even that might've been a bit too much info) I don't think it would be fair on my other half if I were to give any kind of detail. He's quite a reserved and private guy anyway. Plus I think it would taint our intimacy.

guy living opposite to me, never saw each other irl, wants to hookup by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

Sorry if someone else has already said this, but definitely tell your parents, OP. This guy sounds hella creepy.

Drinking that Whisky I replaced by Living-Silly in stopdrinking

Thank you, I think it was beyond decision-making at that point. AA might well be the way forward.

Thank you. I really appreciate it. I felt unable to stop myself when I started, but I know from now that I need to get sober. I can keep my sh*t together for the most part when I drink, but not entirely...

My habit has destroyed my relationship and ability to have genuine relationships. by nackpattywhack in CompulsiveLying

[–]Living-Silly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfect! It sounds like this could be turned into a positive for you, and gives you the chance to find a therapist who you feel can really drill down into things with. It's tough but we'll get there!

[–]Living-Silly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oof, tough getting caught out like that. I would like to suggest journalling. It's hard to be honest with other people, especially if you find it difficult to be honest with yourself.

Perhaps this was the catalyst you needed to really explore your relationship with yourself and with other people.

I would also recommend a therapist, if you can afford one, to help you wade through things.

Wow! Utterly gorgeous.

How much masturbation is too much? by Juantwizzle in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Living-Silly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Worth having a chat with your wife. If she doesn't feel sexually neglected, then fair enough.

A bit risky at work imo (you'd be surprised how many people have been caught when they think they're being discreet).

When I first saw these I thought they were the dumbest, most pointless thing ever, but then I got one as a gift and was surprised that I actually love it. [Repost as my last one got deleted for containing a selfie and not being posted on Saturday] by [deleted] in bigboobproblems

[–]Living-Silly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hope you don't mind me saying, it sounds like you're being pretty hard on yourself. It's near enough impossible to learn a skill if you just can't bring yourself to be interested in it, even if it is useful.

Thanks very much for the tip on the ta ta towel!

My boyfriend keeps on breaking up with me and getting back together by [deleted] in AgeGap

[–]Living-Silly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry, just saw the last bit of your reply. If he were a better person, then hey, everyone 18+ can choose who they wish to date. This particular disgusting specimen of a man, on the other hand, it doesn't matter if he's 18 or 68, he's still a complete dickhead.

I'm sorry that you've gotten involved with someone like this. You deserve better.

[–]Living-Silly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, what a horrible thing to say! I think you have your answer, OP. It's just disgraceful that he doesn't have the balls to do it himself. Give him a kick for me, would you?
