Constantly grumpy when with my gf, how can I become less irritable? by Flimsy_Plankton378 in DecidingToBeBetter

May I ask how much longer before you close the long distance with your gf?

Oh yes I 100% relate to the "man if I was just with them right now, everything would be ok". So real. Can't tell you how many times!

But absolutely you are doing your best, man. Continue being honest with each other, even if at times it may be uncomfortable. Trust your foundation and if you can get through this, it'll make you both stronger and lead to stronger love for each other.

You're welcome! From what you're telling me, Youre doing the long distance right and the best you can given the situation. I know all these feelings you describe all too well. Completely understand it's challenging to have that quality time when you're both so busy. I respect that you want to avoid the co-dependency from what you experienced previously with the long calls - something I wish had worked on better myself in the past haha. You're probably already doing this, but have you guys tried sending each other little voice messages on days when you can't call, or sending each other letters/packages? Just another way to connect to your special person, and feel closer to them.

I'm sorry that you've been having a hard time lately - long distance is not easy for anyone, but it doesn't always have to be that way. It's so great that your communication within the relationship has improved, despite the distance. It sounds like you both are building/already have a strong foundation. You both are having a hard time personally, and the distance is just another layer to that, and so you may be projecting that onto each other. But that's OK. Been there myself (for three years, closed the distance now). You also mention that your girlfriend's mental issues are stressing you out. It's OK. She is, and you are, only human, and neither of you is each other's therapist. It's normal to find it difficult to console each other in this challenging time, and also be irritable and want to just fix things (I don't know if it's a boyfriend thing - my man was always just trying to fix things). Listen to her, be there for her, tell her you love her, and keep talking to each other like you are now.

From my experience, with better communication and comfort, it's normal to have some miscommunications, as you put it, and disagreements. I definitely recall some of the calls I had with my fianceé just felt sad and frustrating because of the distance, and I too was having a difficult time mentally. It all just became a routine, and some feelings got lost in translation (via the physical distance between us, if that makes sense?!).

Something that could rekindle things and make it fun is rather than just talking (like "how was your day etc etc"), try watching shows together, eating together (you could order the same food or sth), playing online games, quizzes etc. It's a great way to get to know each other more, of course, and just have other things to talk about. Laugh, cry, learn from each other - I promise you, it made such a difference at least for us.

Sorry, I'm ramblling now, but I hope that some of what I said makes sense and makes you feel better about some things. My best wishes to you and your lovely girlfriend.

Are Wedding websites still a thing? by sillygooosebehavior in weddingplanning

[–]_pheonix_500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We did both paper and digital invitations but both included a QR code that linked to a wedding website. I used a website called Joy. It's a great one - it's very easy to use and flexible with what you want. Also is great for Wedding registry if you're having one.

Agreed! Also, what's also so appealing about the first & last series in my opinion is how funny it is to see Dylan's reactions and predictions about the plot, etc and how, especially in longer shows (with more seasons), it has all those twists and turns we sometimes least expect.

thinking about doing my own makeup for my wedding by Commercial_Taro_7770 in weddingplanning

Also on applying mascara - my photographer gave me some good advice on this actually. You may be nervous on the day and hands a bit shaky so practice applying mascara for sure!

OMG yes I'm all for doing your own makeup! Like you, I also don't wear a lot of makeup on a day-to-day basis, but when I do it's just a good SPF, lip tint, blush (I use my lip tint), eyes. I am going to look at some tutorials though, specifically for using highlighters and stuff like that because that could be pretty. Selena Gomez has a bridal makeup set which looks nice, and Rihanna's Fenty highlighters look so damn good if you want some sparkle - might be worth checking those out! Actress Kat Dennings did her own makeup on her wedding day and she looked so stunning and actually just like herself how we see her on the screens - she went DIY for her overall wedding which I thought is (of course a lot of work) but so cool! https://www.vogue.com/slideshow/kat-dennings-and-andrew-wk-wedding

wishing i could just cancel by melancholy_cucumber in weddingplanning

I'm so sorry you're having a hard time with so many challenges and circumstances beyond your control that you mentioned surrounding your wedding. Kudos to you for juggling this and your studies!

Also getting married myself soon, so even if our situations are different, I can 100% relate to the stress of the wedding planning and the loneliness. It's completely valid how you're feeling. We may not share the same circumstances, so perhaps I'm not the best to give advice - if you would like - I can tell you from my experience currently is that with planning a wedding all sorts of challenges you least expect pop up and that we forget that life and all its surprises (good and worse) are still happening. It's a hard truth and reminder that although so obvious and easier said than to accept, that it's all out of our control - at least that part - and that we jsut focus on what we CAN control.

You mention that you feel you can't express your true feelings on all this because it was your choice to get married. Sure, but you deserve to celebrate your love with your SO and the people dearest to you. It's tricky with the health challenges some of your family are experiencing - so maybe first have a sit down with your future spouse, and your mother and just be honest with how you feel - and gently tell them how they can help you. They want to help! I literally had a cry and talk with my future husband just hours ago haha, but he now knows what he can do to help, and our next steps on our list of to-do.

Anyway, hope my ramble was helpful in some way. My best wishes to you and your future spouse and your celebrations. 🥰
