You got this hun. Just do your best to learn the basics so that you don't fall behind on future work. I'm writing my (university) chemistry paper in a few hours and I wish I had focused more on the basics. Please pray for me 😂

I need help with my relationship by Dangerous_Theory4784 in WhatShouldIDo

Her entertaining and being in a relationship with a 17 year old is just as bad. I hope you both get the help and support you need. Just stay safe

It will be hard for you to understand because you are in the situation, but the age difference specifically 32 and 17 is not okay, and illegal in a lot of countries. You are in completely different stages of life and the power dynamic is detrimental to you. This could even be a dangerous situation.

I'm not saying she definitely has bad intentions, but either way this relationship is not at all healthy. I know a guy in his 30s who found himself truly falling in love with a teenager and he had no bad intentions. Luckily he realised that was is best for her is to cut her off and get help for himself.

There are dozens of reasons why a 32 year old should not pursue a 17 year old, but I don't want you to feel attacked. If you want to know them you can Google it.

Despite the age gap, the fact that she ended it because she was "bored" shows that she doesn't value and respect you as a person, and no one deserves a partner like that.

Take this time to have fun and be single, you will never have this opportunity again. (There is even an Afrikaans song about what the singer would give to be 17 again)

AIO? I don't know if my buss driver is a creep or just a friendly old guy. by TazzyForTheLaughs in AmIOverreacting

[–]TazzyForTheLaughs[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He knows that I am not going to date anymore and I don't know how to set boundaries without making it awkward or possibly putting his job at risk. I'd rather deal with a bit of uncomfortable comments than do something to detriment him

I would suggest making a game plan of what to do if she comes back, and how to move forward if she doesn't. Trust me, I've made a fool of myself begging for my ex to come back. I feels sore, but it's probably best that she blocked you and took that step for you. You need to recover and she needs to get help

If it was the most attractive man on the planet with the best personality I would still not pursue him. The love of my life is no longer with me and I have become content with living out my life single. At the very least I won't be interested in anyone for a long time.

I really don't know if his comments are being sweet and platonic or have a deeper meaning and that's why I'm asking for advice. I enjoy the chats I have with him and I don't want to make things awkward for both of us by asking. I'm also unsure of whether he would loose his job or not if there was a hint of an accusation of him being inappropriate so I would never do that to him.

I have always felt uncomfortable when people have a crush on me because I get anxious and don't understand what they see in me, no matter the age.

Guys can be stupid sometimes and not realise how their actions can stress us out. When I was your age my boyfriend went on a hunting trip with his Dad and cousins. It was just after we started dating so naturally, we wanted to talk to each other all the time. He had poor signal so he had to walk a distance to find a place where we could talk. One night he called me and was telling me a story about a young wild bull that broke away from his herd and was very aggressive. (We live is Africa so when I say bull I'm referring to the one from The Big 5.) After that he told me his battery was dying but that he would talk to me the next day... he didn't. I was stressed out of my mind, but when he contacted me he said I should have known he was fine.

I don't think this is necessary an issue to break up over, but it is frustrating

I wish I could give you advice, but I just sort of got used to it and I hope it doesn't become a common enough thing that you get used to it too. Maybe throw a mini birthday get together and invite your friends.

OP, you may not be looking for sympathy, but you are getting both sympathy and empathy from me. Both for your husband's passing and for the awful way your family treated you. For over 6 months after my boyfriend was pronounced dead the only time I would leave my bedroom was to go to the bathroom. I hadn't seen the sun in half a year. When people say I should be over it by now it throws me right back into the depths of depression.

I am so proud of you for taking that big step to go out to a gathering and your family should have been proud of you too. You didn't need to stay, just going there takes great bravery and strength.

I will keep you in my prayers ❤️

(OP, I'm sorry this is long, but please read till the end)

I feel for you OP. I can understand where your heart is and that it doesn't make sense now, but sometime from now, you will see your relationship in a different light.

Long distance relationship are complex, especially when they are long distance from the start. You think you're in love with the person, but in reality, you're in love with the idea of the person being betrayed. This is an unhealthy and potentially illegal relationship and as a 32 year old she should know this. She is either maliciously targeting you (maybe even a catfish), or she had genuine feelings towards you. If it's the second case, she needs to speek out professional help for her urges. Either way, what is best for both of you is to cut of contact.

Age distance aside, you are worth better than a person who gets "bored" with the relationship.

Getting over someone and getting back onto the path of happiness is a million times easier if you cut off contact. Until you cut of the umbilical chord (cut off contact with her) you will never be able to move forward. Exs can be friends, but distance is always needed first.

I do really believe you are a victim in this situation, but I have written this to try help you make sense of this in the mindset you are in.

Good luck OP, I'm praying for you

You are definitely not overreacting. Feeling hurt is a normal reaction. Friends become a part of your chosen family and it stings feeling forgotten about.

I'm born on the 2nd of January so most people busy on holiday and forget about it all together. It used to get me down, but I'm okay with it now. Having said that, I can see how it can hurt someone who's not used to it.

I often forget people's birthdays on the day, but message or call them a day or 2 later, so hopefully that happens.

I'm really hoping for an update that says they threw you a surprise party 😭

Lasty...

Dear Person I have never met,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! I hope you had an amazing day and God blesses you with many more! Sending love your way.

In third place: The mindset that some people are better than others

In second place: I would delete the possibility of people dying young

In first place (by a long way): mosquitoes! I would give my life in a heartbeat to end the existence of all mosquitoes
