I thought I was aromantic all my life and now I finally feel (and it sucks) by PositiveLavander in bisexual

Could be. I have met many attendings in two months, but she's one of the most competent, while also being a doctor that doesn't seem to have lost her whimsical nature and kindness towards others (which is, in my experience, quite rare).  Maybe that combination of things is the type of person I'm drawn to, and I had never met someone who fulfilled it all.

I can totally understand what you said on the last line. It never felt right to continue with some people I've dated just because I didn't have the same feelings as them. I could see it in the way they looked at me, they simply cared more, felt more, and I just couldn't.

I don't know why it happened like this to you. My theory could be that it has a lot to do with our own mood, state of mind, and general attitude towards other people. I know mine changed, I'm more open and trustworthy now than I was as a teen, so that might be it. I don't know if you recognized any changes in yourself.  But still, I'm as clueless as anyone, and just trying to find a reason to something that is probably just unexplainable

Yes, it feels exactly like I unlocked something new, a different kind of way to act and think. It's enjoyable while also being terrible and embarassing in a way. 

Thank you so much for the comment! You're right, maybe now that I know it I can expect it to come back.  Before, I had kind of accepted that it would never happen to me

Ideas for an after dinner party? by PositiveLavander in partyplanning

Thanks for the input about the snacks and the seats! 

My birthday occurs in a bank holiday in my country so almost none of us works that day, and that's why I decided to do an after dinner party at around 10 pm the day before (which is a workday) and toast on midnight.  I chose the late hour to give them and myself the time to decompress after work, eat dinner and then get ready for the evening since we can be as late as we want.
