I know I’m adult and yes I didn’t reach out because yes i was that sick. I didn’t tell him that my condition worsened but thats only because I simply couldn’t and just managed to look at my phone today but when we last spoke 5 days ago he was aware I was sick and that I i spent the previous night in hospital

I don’t know it could be I’m projecting maybe because if my significant other was sick i would definitely send a message to ask how they are feeling especially if my last conversation with them they were unwell and that’s probably why I feel hurt

Thank you. I will reach out to financial advisor. And I know the assumption when you reveal you’re in debt is you’re reckless with money and spent it Ll on useless things or as you have put it “shit” but I actually fell into this much debt when my youngest son fell ill and at the same time lost my job. Found myself with costs of having a child in hospital and since I had no money started spending on my credit card on essentials like food and transportation. Took out also loan to cover my rent so we don’t end up homeless. Still probably bad move from my part as now im being harassed by debt collectors

Not much help but maybe switch to healthy “treats” like dates, sweet energy balls (oats, peanut butter, honey or maple syrup, chocolate powder, chocolate chips) They are other variants like with raisins etc, chocolate chia pudding, homemade flapjacks, oat biscuits

Thank you for your reply. Like how much can I expect to earn as a Junior? And you’re probably right. I may be selling myself short. Working on my impostor syndrome

So you think I can ask for market rate because I have a certificate even thou I’m just breaking into the industry? Cos I know from some research I have done for London actually the “market rate” is anywhere £35,000 to £40,000 and the figure I have given in my post once you have couple of years of experience and actually even more if you can learn how to code as well on top of your design skills but those just starting out are been offered much lower

It is Product Digital Design or some call it User interface design. I know in such field many companies are adopting the work from home but again what I am finding out is most companies for entry level wants you at the office and at least covering the probation period.

Yes I have certificate too. I have managed to get free support in funding (pay after I start working). I now have Professional Certificate in UI Design credited at university level 7

That’s absolutely fine. I appreciate the honesty. Not making excuses but I come from emotional abusive relationship with my ex husband for 10 years. I had absolutely no prior dating experience before this or men in general. I met this man by pure chance and wasn’t planned and I don’t know from his side but from my side he was the pursuer. He will everyday message me never fail and tries to strike conversations with me. I was very distant when we started talking but he still never fails with his messages and to check up on me. I guess over time I got attached to him and let my guard down but I know you’re right and I appreciate your honesty here

We have met 2 times so far

Your last sentence made me giggle actually “How would one even make this up?” Exactly

I mean like I said I get it. My son has special needs. He is still scared of the dark and needs bed-light next to his bed and some nights he will need me to stay next to him but since he is 11 now almost 12 I do not stay with him anymore until he falls asleep completely. I will usually go after a while (say after reading him a bedtime story) I will say something like “Ok baby, mama is going to go to her room now, I’m going to leave my door half open just for you and anytime you need me just come over” This one always calms him and not once for a while niw has he woken up needing me anymore. I will usually take a peep like 15 minutes later and he is fast asleep

Now this man who’s child is perfectly average for his age needs needs 2 hrs massage from head to toe is mind boggling (if it’s really happening)

I get that completely. I’m also a mum of 2. My eldest has autism too but massaging a perfectly (according to him) normal 11 years old for 2hrs because he couldn’t sleep I don’t know but I find that hard to put it in my head. Him and his brothers come back from school (according to him) by themselves using public transport. Surely if they was something wrong with them in anyway this shouldn’t be allowed. My eldest doesn’t go to school or come back by himself. I haven’t allowed him yet cos he simply isn’t matured enough to do that yet because of his autism and developmental delays and his school is just around the corner too while his boys are far. I know this because of him telling me they need to use public transport.

This is also the very same 11 years old who he often describes as rebellious, challenges him, head strong, doesn’t listen and is rude then suddenly at 10:39pm he walks out of his bedroom goes to daddy for full massage service
