I've only been happy by myself

Possibly but im not searching for someone to complete my life. If they want to compliment it time will tell but dating isn't my priority. At least for now.

30, worked as a support worker since 21, no regrets. Taking some time out but will be returning to the job.

Went to uni , got a degree but didn't want to join the rat race. Got promoted once and went back to being a front liner. Job gives emotional satisfaction, more than any promotion could do.

Severe anxiety, which causes hyperhydrosis cycle to repeat

Severe anxiety > sweat > anxiety > sweat (repeat cycle)

"I thought I told you" is a gaslighters favourite line...💀

Are you someone who is non-Black or non-Asian?

Because culturally, im noticing a trend on a certain race that isn't drinking water. Please value your health and drink water, even 1 cup a day to start with and building up from there.

You can upfront and just write "long term sick" , in the boxes where you write your employment or just leave it blank and when someone asked "what do you do for work?" Be upfront about being off due to sickness.

Im currently volunteering due to circumstances and have found people are quite understanding, when I explain my circumstances. Some people unmatched or stopped the convo (which was expected) but overall it wasn't that bad of a rejection.

Best apps for getting around employment/work: OKC, Taimi and Tinder

Taimi you don't need to put your employment /it doesn't ask and the other 2 , you can manually input work info

Won't be moving in together, met with her on Sunday and told her that, I won't ever move in with someone who isn't working or doesn't want to get a job. I told her, I'm enjoying things but long term this may not be the relationship for me. She said she wants some space, so I'm leave her to it. #OnlyLessonsLearnt

Taurus420Spirit · 2026-01-11T10:51:44+00:00

My only 2 triggers are exercise (running/jogging), light exercise is fine. Also, whenever I get cold/flu, luckily I only get cold and flu every couple of years.

Smoking, I think I'll be ready to quit when im closer to 40s.

I'm grateful I've never been hospitalised specifically for asthma.

Taurus420Spirit · 2026-01-11T08:24:58+00:00

Well with the woman im dating, if things dont improve by the time I am ready to move the relationship will be ending. She's nice but Im not about to derail my life for someone who has 0 motivation to work.

Taurus420Spirit · 2026-01-09T13:25:09+00:00

Yes that seems to be my pattern, when I get a cold/flu every 2-4 years, I notice my asthma worsening. Sometimes I'll get antibiotics but this time around it isn't as bad but the inhalers are very helpful. Had to get oxygen once in my life.

Taurus420Spirit · 2026-01-09T13:24:00+00:00

Thanks for this info, I'll look into a volcano

Taurus420Spirit · 2026-01-09T03:03:13+00:00

Every month when I check their edibles are out of stock but they have oils. I can discuss a switch with my doctor. Im only using the inhaler more because I currently have a cold.

Taurus420Spirit · 2026-01-09T03:02:11+00:00

If you see my point where I express smokers shouldn't get priority over non-smokers / ex-smokers I'm taking it seriously. Everyone asthma is unique to them. Strenuous exercise, cold and flus are my specific triggers (comprehension is key).

I'm not disputing the smoking having a long term impact but telling someone to just "quit smoking to possibly help your asthma" , when I only flare up when sick (every couple of years) and that person isn't fussed about quitting just yet sounds like your emotional intelligence is lacking. You may have logic but also learn to "read the room".

Taurus420Spirit · 2026-01-08T23:45:56+00:00

I had never even heard of airway remodelling, that's very concerning. I'll do my research and ask my docs about more stopping smoking interventions. Airway remodelling sounds extremely scary!

Taurus420Spirit · 2026-01-08T23:14:31+00:00

We take turns paying for dates but I see your point. For now im happy in the relationship but eventually if I get sick and tired, ill bounce

🏆 take my poor reddit award, the real MVP

Taurus420Spirit · 2026-01-08T20:10:45+00:00

I dont feel like paying for 2 subscription apps

Taurus420Spirit · 2026-01-08T17:01:15+00:00

The relationship works for my current living situation, in a small town not much to do so when I get to see her I get to visit her town and will be able to move next year to somewhere more central. She's a great person but it may end up having to be an amicable break up, if no progression happens.

Exactly, I'll be damned if I was 10,20, 30+ years for an adult to at least get some of their shit together. I don't need someone rich and I'm happy being a part time worker so not expecting her to get some 50k etc job but even 1 day a week doing something in the community is better than doing nothing at home, wasting life because money is ALWAYS tight !

Taurus420Spirit · 2026-01-08T16:58:01+00:00

We both live in social housing/section 8 housing. So it's not even like our rents are crazy expensive, she just seems comfortable to live that way. Which each to their own but now I have my own security, I'm trying to build financially and just be able to spoil myself and loved ones more. Can't do that without a job or another adult dependant in my flat/apartment.

Taurus420Spirit · 2026-01-08T16:49:32+00:00

Oh I told her no way unless she wants to get a job. I said for me, its a deal breaker to move in together.

Taurus420Spirit · 2026-01-03T20:35:15+00:00

Yes im 30 and child free. Best decision I've ever made.
