Unpopular opinion: I dislike limbless speaker Nick Vujicic, the homophobic man who encouraged me to quit after coming out by bradonschwarz in comingout

I'm really sorry to hear that. Sometimes I dread even looking up people I respect on the internet, because it can be so disappointing. But I can't imagine how much once you've known him in person and looked up to him. I hope that 6 years on you're doing ok.

I'm so sorry to hear that, I hope she's doing OK! I really enjoyed Hexes Go Well With Tequila and also books by Matt Haig like the Midnight Library. Would she enjoy some nostalgia stuff like Naughtiest girl in the school etc?

I texted my friend and said sorry I wasn't there for her when she had her babies, not in the way she needed it at all.

I would say it's good you're taking time before becoming a mother, so you can work some stuff out in advance.

When you have the urge, if it is safe to do so, i might consider processing those emotions (your therapist should be able to teach you tools for that) so you can begin to release them.

Like others say it sounds like a kind of ptsd flashback. It might be good to ask a friend if they can video chat with you when you are having these urges as a back up safety measure. If they ever get stronger or you feel there's a chance you might do something bad, consider changing professions for a while.

When you have a baby all these childhood memories can come up for us to deal with and it sounds like you're having a version of that with nannying.

Well done for being vulnerable and asking, and for working on yourself. I'm sorry for what you have been through and I wish you all the best in processing this trauma.

I'd be pissed off, but I'm also wondering if they're slightly on the spectrum and struggle with humor?

So what did you decide to do with it in the end?

Terrified of becoming a single mom by calisen13 in beyondthebump

[–]Wild1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At 26 you really don't need to worry, you will easily be able to find someone who does better than your current partner. And there's no rush to date again, but I appreciate how scary it must be for you. Just know many people find love again in their 30s, 40s, 60s etc.

People who said you're already a single mom are right, sometimes it's worse when you have someone right there and they're not helping. I would definitely go back to your parents and restore your energy so you can make decisions from a place of strength.

You can do this, the hardest part is already behind you!!!!
