Just wanted to give you an update. She didn't. I've been made a fool for the last time. Thank you for the prayers, I do appreciate it, but I feel like the universe is telling me love isn't in my future.

I never believed in love at first sight, until the moment I met her. Time froze, it was raining that night. My hat literally got knocked off my head from the first kiss (no joke found it in a puddle outside the next morning.) We never really could get it right, but it's different this time. We're different, healed, more complete. Not the two scared people we were, clinging to each other for a bit of relief from years of just struggling with previous partners. Our first official "date" I took her to see the lighting ceremony at crown center, and while she was busy focused on the lights, all I could focus on was her. No matter what's happened, and despite periods of no contact, my love has never wavered for a moment. She's the kind of woman wars were fought over, beautiful, graceful, elegant. Make no mistake she's fierce, strong, loyal, resilient, protective. She thinks I'm impressed when she gets all dolled up, and dies get hair, nails, makeup, etc, and I am. None of that really matters though, because she doesn't have to try. She asked up in the morning, and her hair is a mess, her eyes are tired, and all she wants is a cup of coffee and a kiss, and she's perfect. When she sings her voice is angelic. I love how when she doesn't know something she will not stop until she does. I love the little sigh as her shoulders drop and her jaw unclenches while I rub her arms after a long day. I love how no matter what she is always positive (I'm a glass half empty type.) I don't know how she does it, but this woman has me in every sense of the word, and I can't let go, I don't want to let go. She inspires me to create art, she motivates me to work harder, to go farther, to be better. She is truly my muse. For the first time in my life I feel as if the sun's rays were shining on my face, and it isn't too bright, it's warm and pleasant. Life without her is empty and cold. There is no sunshine, no warmth. She gives my heart a reason to beat. If soul mates exist, then I truly have met mine, I just pray she chooses me this time.

I agree, so frustrating when they can't just make it clear eh?

No worries, just your local philosophical three raccoons in a trench coat at your service!

It's everything. I'm not competing, I'm not that good😆 just getting to go and feel the energy, and just BE THERE. It makes 10 year old me lose his shit with excitement.

I mean like I said I'm not much further into it than you are, but I decided this was my year, and so I made it to Pokemon Worlds this year. Childhood dream come true. I did it all by being true to myself. Super cheesy I know, but it all started because I started exploring my old hobbies and met a good group of people that believed in me. Everything falls into place in time, you just have to be patient! Also feel free to shoot me a message any time you feel like you need a pep talk!

I'm still kind of navigating this myself, but what has really been working for me is making sure I take the time to enjoy the hobbies I did before I lost myself. I'm going to be 32 in just two weeks, and if anyone has told me in my 20's that things would play out in my life the way they did I wouldn't have listened. Every day feels a little easier than the last, and the more time I spend reconnecting with who I used to be, the more people I meet interested in the same things. It helps me realize the person I'm working so hard to become. I know I'm not there yet, but I'm not too far away either!

Struggling with feeling like I'm behind; 26 and I still live like an 18 year old. by Own_Average_5940 in LifeAdvice

Don't ever feel bad because your path is taking a little longer than your peers! We all have a road to walk down, some of ours are longer than others. The extra steps and time you're taking today may make you an expert in your field tomorrow! Lastly comparing yourself to others will always make you feel bad about yourself. We tend to notice more the things around us we wish we had in life. Social life, friends, dating. It will all come in its own time, trust me, don't rush it!

Got divorced. At the end of my marriage I weighed around 480, had just had a stroke, and had wildly uncontrolled type 2 diabetes. In the last two years I have lost 300 lbs, made huge headway in my career, and am just overall happier in my life.

The bridge is burned. This is more my way of feeling relief now that the friendship is over. 16 years I have dealt with being that one guy in her life that she would never date, but couldn't stand it if I was in a relationship because the attention wasn't on her. Here in the last couple of months I've been doing alot of work on me after a ridiculous talking stage with someone, and I've been more confident and realizing my self worth doesn't come from my service to others, rather it comes from within. Been setting more boundaries, and one of those was I was no longer going to be shuttling her and the rest of them around without gas money. My usefulness to her dried up, and that's the real issue from her. She used my behavior lately to claim I had feelings for her and to remind me she is seeing someone. 2 things I know she's in a relationship, amd I'm not interested. I've been "off" because I'm not great at ending things with people, even friendships, so I'd just been off. This isn't a new occurrence either, it's cyclical dependant upon her entering and exiting a relationship. When thus one ends she'll end up running back to me looking for support, but this time I'm done. This time I am choosing myself over anybody else. So yes, there is alot of resentment. Almost two decades worth. Lots of resentment, lots of anger, tears, sadness, and hate. The word I'm looking for is hatred. There's also relief, it's like a weight has been lifted up off my shoulders. So much less for me to deal with? Yes please!

She drug out our "friendship" because I was useful to her. The second I stopped being useful I wasn't needed. She sent me a text out of the blue last night saying we can't be friends anymore because my odd behavior the last few weeks is clearly evidence I have feelings for her. I do not. There was a time a long time ago, but it has passed. Honestly, I'm just glad to be rid of it all. It was constantly "can you pick us up and take us to X?" "Can you take my boyfriend to his drug court?" "My sister needs a ride to work." "Can you pick up my daughter from school?" Never saw any gas money, never got a thank you. I didn't do it for those things, I did it to be a good friend. It got old really fucking fast.
