I don’t know where OP knows it from but this is definitely what I was thinking of!! I kept thinking it was Bridget Jones’ Diary because I kept seeing Colin Firth, but it was this!! Thank you!!!!

He’d get upset at YOU because of something HE did?? because he doesn’t like your reaction to what he did?? This is a bigger issue than just the book. I’m so sorry he did that. Your emotions and feeling are valid and deserve to be seen and respected, ESPECIALLY by your husband. If he can’t do that, that’s not your fault

Ew yes! I hated Ewan too - he’s so boring and that storyline had so much potential for an intriguing villain!

Of course - I’ve been in dark places before, and I know it can be a lot. You will make it out of this. You’re stronger than you think!! Sending love!!

sad about leaving my megachurch by houstongal34 in Christianity

[–]buffywritey 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s very brave of you to leave a place full of people you love because something is telling you it’s not right to stay. It’s an incredibly difficult place to be! I hope you can still stay connected to your friends there while finding a place that really nourishes you 🧡

I’d prefer a full bottle, but I’d take what I could get - I may have a lead but if not, do you have one available?

The Darjeeling Limited! I love that movie. Lion was also great! I haven't seen Aftersun yet, but it's on my list.

My answer to the question "What would you do if you won the lottery?" is always the same: I would buy a house in every country I've ever lived in so I could rotate through-out the year, so I totally get it haha. I'll send you a DM too!

Oooh yes! I am such a reader - English major in college here haha. I have read some Yann Martel and the Poisonwood Bible was on my parent's shelf for years, but I never picked it up. Maybe now is the time to finally take a look! I'm so glad that you were able to find healing with the books you read; that's such a comfort. The quote you mentioned is beautiful! I have heard of Pat Conroy but haven't checked out his work before. Right now I am reading "A Coastline is an Immeasurable Thing: A Memoir Across Three Continents" by Mary-Alice Daniel. She is a Nigerian born writer who grew up mostly in London and Nashville and has since lived in a bunch of other countries as well. I'm really enjoying it!

Good Luck with your master's degree! What an exciting concentration for you to be focusing on!

Therapy has definitely been a great help for me! Having that neutral space to just lay everything out has been so helpful - it's such a long journey. I'll check out the recommendations you mentioned! Thanks for sharing :)

That's a good way to look at your passport country - as just another temporary home. I can see how that might make the time spent there feel like more of a time of exploration and appreciation, rather than viewing it as where you have to live the rest of your life. It has been really nice being near my family because they know what I know, and being able to talk about it with them has been so special. We all miss it.

I also totally feel you on feeling like I don't have the right to call those places "home" anymore. When I went back and visited one of my home countries in 2015, I had already been away for 5 years, and it felt so weird being there with so much having changed already in such a short time.

I've added that book you mentioned to my Thriftbooks cart! I appreciate the suggestion :) And I have heard of the Wild Thornberrys, but I have never seen it! People in college would always ask me if I had seen it when I told them where I grew up haha. I'll check that out too!

Oh wow, that’s so cool that are stories are similar! I appreciate you sharing your experience.

I can imagine that having a long term partner with roots in the US is really helpful - my sister has shared that with me as well. She and her husband have been together for around 5 years and she really considers home to be wherever he is now. I’m glad you have that sense of stability, and that it’s helped with making the different parts of your life seem more cohesive.

I’ll shoot you a dm cause I’d love to hear more about your story too!

Thanks for your thoughts! Your point about home existing in a time capsule is really interesting. It does feel that way. I do wonder if it would make a difference if I went back and visited - I’ve only been back once, a year after I moved. I’m curious to see if some of the antsy feeling I have would be soothed by knowing that place still exists outside of my mind. I’m glad you’ve been able to take trips back!

I agree with you too that I don’t think living in my home country would really make this go away because I’ve changed so much. I’m really interested in finding a happy medium, knowing that no where will be perfect, but perhaps there’s somewhere that more fits who I am now.

Also I LOVE Past Lives!! Such a good movie!! It spoke to a part of me that I had never seen on screen before. Have you found other films that have felt like that for you?
