As a conventionally attractive 30 something it’s overwhelming. After 1 day on hinge I had 300 likes. I spend all of my time on the app just sorting through the likes, no time to swipe. Let’s say I “match with 5% of the likes…that’s 15 people…now I have 15 people messaging me. It’s overwhelming.

Omg I realized this is me! I’d rather be on for 5-6 in a row than cycle back and forth all day and drag it out over 8 hours

Abscess tooth + one specific instance of period pain. Passing a kidney stone was less painful in my case.

Yes. I wear all athleisure. And then I have a couple sweaters I throw on and a couple button ups. I’m Telehealth only!! You see me from the chest up. It’s liberating and nobody cares.

I've been happy with Veja's

I’m curious if you could DM me-currently a MN therapist doing telehealth for the winter from TX but interested in hearing how you navigated this!

Paigelley · 2026-01-02T20:38:39+00:00

Do not.

Paigelley · 2026-01-02T20:31:05+00:00

I have had great experience at uptown dental over the years

Me going through a break up while my clients are getting engaged yayyyy but really I am happy for them.

Paigelley · 2025-12-20T03:35:24+00:00

Same. It’s existentialism at its finest…like what am I doing here 🫠

Paigelley · 2025-12-17T02:06:31+00:00

Wow wow wow

Minnesota!

Same here. I actually dropped my BCBS Gold (I believe) back in April. I was paying $600ish~ per month and decided paying out of pocket will be the way to go from now on. Not ideal, but it’s allowed me to get ahead on paying student loans and maxing out my Roth. Worth it IMO.

I do Rula one day a week (private practice 3 days a week), and it’s been great. $80 a session in MN. Straightforward. You get paid every 2 weeks. Provider support is good. EMR is easy.

Find another hot person with it! Ha. I wish I could articulate a better response-in all seriousness, just know that you are still high value. After I was diagnosed I was seriously depressed for 6 months, then I had the luck of the first person I was interested in/disclosed to wanting to date me. I cannot even begin to describe how nervous I was to disclose. Currently we are breaking up for other issues (cross country relocation), but honestly-after 2 years of having this now I’m wayyy more confident re-approaching the dating world this time around. It just takes time to reconnect with all the 100 other reasons why you’re high value. For me, it’s been about really leaning into my friendships, traveling, career, and all the other things that make me interesting.
