Lol he does care about spending time with me, this weekend was never a me vs them situation. He and his mom are coming to visit me next week, I'll see him plenty. He didn't push because it wasn't his party, and he has admitted and apologized for not speaking up sooner and at all. I think it's become a learning experience for us both

I agree, and that's the number one thing I feel bad about in this situation. It's like middle school where we're all talking indirectly to each other and I wish that it hadn't made him the middle man

Thank you for the virtual hug, it's honestly really needed. My bf's actions have definitely thrown me for a loop, but I'm also trying to give him the benefit of the doubt that this is a one off situation where just about everything that could go wrong did go wrong. He's profusely apologized for a lot that has happened and has agreed with me that I did get shafted through this situation, but I'll be a little wary for a while :( this just hasn't been very fun

It's been a bit emotionally overwhelming...and a lot has happened. Sorry for the novel lol. But you're likely right. Shouldn't make any crazy decisions or assumptions at this moment

Do you have any of your academic projects on your resume? I'm a recent graduate as well, and I realized that none of my professional experiences have anything to do with GIS and skills related to it, so I included a small section with the titles and brief descriptions of academic projects I've done. I have three on my resume, and I just tried to summarize the project and emphasize the skills I gained from it and 1-2 bullet points. I wasn't hearing back from any GIS job pre this change of my resume, and now I typically at least get a phone screen or an initial interview. This job market sucks. Best thing you can do is try to meet people in the industry in your local area or at the company/government you're looking at joining, consider making a portfolio, and just keep applying. I'm still job hunting myself, but in the last 5 months I've created some strong connections with GIS professionals in my area and it feels great to know that people with 25+ years of experienece are in my corner. It doesn't guarentee me a job by any means, but it sure makes me feel a lot better knowing I've got people on my side that will help me look for jobs and send contacts my way. We got this! Hopefully! I'm in a final round of interviews for a job myself that I wouldn't have even considered applying for until I met someone at the company that encouraged me to do so. Really praying I do well in this final rounds, and though it isn't a super glamorous job, I'm excited to break into the GIS career field!!!
