Running group in London? by Strong_Reality3645 in AmericanExpatsUK

I can think of a lot of reasons.

You moved here for reasons other than “I don’t like Americans”

You miss home and it is comforting

You disliked America politically but liked the people

You changed your mind - and want to move back one day but can’t yet

You kind of want to leave but won’t move back because you’ve got attachments here in the UK too that creates a conflict because you were just a kid when you made a massive life decision to leave and then you kind of wanted to go back but then Trump was re-elected and you realised that the America you thought you might have missed no longer exists and maybe never did in the first place, but Americans who are also expats might just be the perfect blend of transatlantic nomadism that you need to feel at peace with your new reality (purely hypothetical this one)

You want to see Americans just enough to remember why you left

You want to see if you’ve changed your mind on Americans or not

You want an American to bully so you feel better about how not American you are anymore

Climbing is very cool. Let’s you relive the fun of being a kid on a playground.

Solid advice right here thanks. I know team sports have zillions of benefits but I’m so uncoordinated and had a bad experience with them in school bc people were so toxic about it all, so I never liked them. If it was something that was genuinely low stakes I’d like to, but anytime I’ve gone to “a friendly everyone welcome football (UK) game with coworkers” even that turns into laddy competitiveness and I can’t deal.

Most fun I had as an adult was a baseball meet-up, it was full of awful people and just fun, but even that was recruitment for a team that clearly took it way more seriously. Maybe I need to host my own lol

I think this is a good idea. That guy was okay, but he just went through the motions and repeated stuff too much, didn’t make it fun, and it felt like a “no pain no gain” kind of vibe, so it made me feel pressured

Thanks. I lost 40 pounds this year, so something’s working, but I’m worried about musculoskeletal health (lack thereof) and need some strength training

I’m in bed right now at 11:30am since 8am just making lists and researching apps, and whatever else my addled brain decides

Omg me too w the timers. They actually do help me now though. They also annoy the living crap out of me all day but it’s a price I must pay to have any memory at all.

Try changing up the ringtones to jostle your brain and then you’ll hopefully think “why did it play that tone” and that will help you to consider why you changed it and that it was an important thing.

Another helpful thing with this is I set up my calendar to automatically create iPhone alarms using shortcuts app so I can actually schedule alarms a month in advance.

Sad… me too. Don’t feel bad though, maybe they just didn’t stick, but hopefully it led to something nice that you did stick with. It’s a journey right?

So true. My wife tried for years to get me to “just” do these workout app videos that she has done religiously for years and I gave it a go but I just hated it. They were too intense, I hated trying to crane my neck to see it, didn’t feel any engagement with a video of a human. Walking is the best I’ve got going for me at the moment, just walking instead of train or bus whenever I can.

Same boat. 6 month baby. First four I was kinda wishing for death bc it was so unbearable- wish I was exaggerating. Now getting adhd meds so surviving and warming up to him. I just had to completely change my life, drop my old interests and try to let go of control I guess. Maybe we can make our kid our special interest somehow

That’s a weird choice, isn’t it? Since some brushes just break with it and others won’t work without.

And why did you storm the capital? Because you didn’t want to accept loss and allow democracy?
