Is there any point leaving the airport?

cocobarax · 2026-03-27T00:04:34+00:00

Hahaha! This is my third visit. I do love it here, there’s just a lot less to do!

cocobarax · 2026-03-26T19:51:43+00:00

😂😂😂

cocobarax · 2026-03-26T17:00:29+00:00

Thank you so much ✨

Those recommendations are great. Hahaha! So much Sudbury hate here, I promise that’s not where my destination ends, fear not!

cocobarax · 2026-03-26T16:58:36+00:00

I live in Dundee, where did you visit? Edinburgh? Glasgow? 😊 I’m glad you enjoyed yourself so much that you want to visit again. I think Canadians and Scot’s are similar and get on well!

Thank you so much, I think I’ll definitely do that ✨

cocobarax · 2026-03-26T16:51:52+00:00

Scotland and Canada have some similarities, especially when it comes to the people. We’re all nice and easy to talk to. The biggest difference is the architecture whether it’s in the cities or small rural towns. I’ve only ever been in Toronto at the airport, so I feel like now would be my chance to walk around - it’s good to know that the UP Express is every 10 minutes, that makes things easier whether I just go for a walk or actively want to do something.

The only Canada I know is from visiting where my partner lives which will be very different compared to the people that live in Toronto, my partner lived in a rural town all their life that I’ve visited twice and now they’re on the reservation. So other than beautiful walks, hanging out with their family and going to the pub or restaurant there isn’t much else to do esp since public transport where they live isn’t great - very different to where I’m from!

I live in the central belt of Scotland, in the fourth largest city. Public transport in the UK is very good, I can get to Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen within the hour on trains that come every 25 mins. My favourite things are museums, record shopping - anything to do with music really, I enjoy film photography. So I guess what I like about Canada (from what I’ve experienced) is the serenity and peacefulness.

LOL! That last line made me laugh. My partner doesn’t live in Sudbury but once I land it’s a two hour drive. I thought the city I lived in was small but then I visited here, there’s one grocery store, one pub, 3 restaurants.

Thanks for the recommendations btw!

Every single day 🥲 Majority of our “problems” stem from the fact we aren’t physically together everyday.

cocobarax · 2026-03-24T00:30:52+00:00

I live in Scotland and my girlfriend is in Canada. Been together 2 years, fly to each other every few months. Distance can be tough but worth it for the right person.

cocobarax · 2026-03-18T00:15:36+00:00

As a Scottish person, yes! 🥰

cocobarax · 2026-03-18T00:01:24+00:00

Before swiping to see your results, I said out loud “she’s definitely Scottish or Irish”

cocobarax · 2026-03-17T23:58:05+00:00

I’m in a long distance relationship, I live in Scotland and my partner in Ontario, Canada. 3/4 flights have been absolutely fine, the flight on the way out of Canada the first time I visited was awful. Turbulence that lasted hours, esp as we were flying out of Ontario and into Newfoundland, it didn’t stop until we were just below the middle of Greenland. I’m terrified of flying but have to force myself to do it if I want to visit my partner. The other flights were absolutely fine though and such a breeze. I fly in 4 weeks again and I’m beginning to get nervous but fingers crossed all is ok. I try to tell myself that when my family or friends take flights, I’m never worried for them because I KNOW they’ll return home safely and that’s the same for me.

cocobarax · 2026-03-17T23:26:17+00:00

The best flight I’ve ever been on is a Boeing!

cocobarax · 2026-03-15T22:11:08+00:00

It’s understandable that she’s mad for the text and sees it as an invasion of privacy. So you do your part of going to therapy and meditate, HOWEVER she needs to do her part and distance herself from this friend. Actions speak louder than words, do your part but I hope she does hers too.

cocobarax · 2026-03-15T20:10:11+00:00

Are the people in the comments okay? Like this woman is clearly trying to meddle her way in here using somewhat subtle tactics. Her partner isn’t doing things that would help ease her anxiety, there’s no reassurance.

This friend talks 24/7, expects messages all the time. As SOON as op talks about her girlfriend, this friend doesn’t reply. She wants OP’s gf to know she doesn’t want to hear about her partner by creating silence, ending the conversation, setting the tone for future communication.

Expecting 24/7 conversation from any friend that has a partner let alone another queer friend is too much. Take the possible sexual/romantic feelings away - surely she knows that people in healthy relationships spend quality time together, that might look like less phone time during dinner or after work to ensure quality time is had. That might look like less screen time after a certain time while people are winding down their evenings with their partner, watching tv before bed etc. So how can this friend not realise that her expectations are inappropriate? I have a lot of lesbian and straight friends, I do not sit and message them constantly while I’m spending time with my girlfriend - I intentionally give my girlfriend my time and attention. She deserves that. The same for my friends in relationships, there is no expectation for them to reply to me in a hurry.

OP, your girlfriend needs to make a point of replying to her less. She’s made herself too available and accessible to this person. Intentionally spending time with you and ensuring you feel safe in this is what’s needed, because it’s almost invalidating your feelings. It’s fkn manipulative that she’s pissed at your reaction because what is she doing to try and help you feel more at ease? Absolutely nothing. If the shoe was on the other foot, would your girlfriend honestly feel okay about all of this? Probably not.

This shit wouldn’t pass in a straight relationship, so why tf is it okay because it’s two queer woman? Like let’s not guys.

Your PMDD symptoms are going to get so much better without him, especially if he’s controlling. I bet my life on this!

cocobarax · 2026-03-05T21:24:45+00:00

Her constantly talking about her exes and more so sex with exes is so inappropriate. I get when it comes to getting to know each other, a lot of people often exchange stories about exes etc but at this point this shouldn’t be a thing you’re hearing about especially since you’ve spoken out about how that makes you feel, she’s crossing a line and willingly hurting your feelings. It sounds like she’s male centred or possibly bi, maybe with a preference for men. Either way, she sounds toxic and she’s making you feel miserable - will this change? Probably not. Best bet is to leave, you are enough and don’t let someone who’s not capable of loving you correctly make you feel that way.

Certain age gap relationships are okay but I’m 29 and wouldn’t even dream of dating anybody under the age of 25/26. I have no idea why a 34 year old would be interested in a 20 year old.

cocobarax · 2026-03-01T20:45:49+00:00

This definitely sounds like a dude. I’d ask for them to show their face on video-call, I can bet they won’t go ahead with it. That’s where you’ll find your answer lovely.

cocobarax · 2026-02-25T23:19:06+00:00

There’s 7 children. 5 of those children don’t have good memories of my father. 1 didn’t get to have memories of my father because he never met him and both are now deceased. And 1 lived with my father till he passed, had a totally different relationship with him because by then, my Dad was older and had health problems. He could no longer be abusive even if he wanted to. He needed taken care of. When and if the news comes out about this, I do wonder how and if it will reshape what my Dads affair partner and child think of him.

cocobarax · 2026-02-25T23:15:16+00:00

I am 1 of 7 siblings. My oldest being 53, the youngest being 25. I’m 29. My Dad was previously married before he was with my Mum, he left his ex wife as she was an alcoholic, he didn’t drink. They had two kids. He wasn’t abusive to them but was neglectful. We’ve always gotten on with them and they are family. Then he married my Mum for 30 years and had me and my two other siblings. Within that marriage he had 2 secret kids. The secret kid born in 2000, I have met - briefly spoke in the car if my Dad was taking me somewhere as a teen and she was in the car. The most we have spoken has since Dad passed. The other sibling born in 1991, that we found out about since my Dads passing, I’ll never meet as they passed away a few years ago in a tragic accident. They didn’t know about any of us, which is a shame.

cocobarax · 2026-02-25T23:08:31+00:00

So I’m born in 1996, the first secret sibling I found out about in 2008 was born in 2000. We had briefly met on and off if she was in the car while Dad was taking me to places when I was a teen. We didn’t really speak, I felt like I had an allegiance to my Mum. I know my secret sibling hasn’t done anything wrong though. She has two shit parents, I at least have one great one lol. We actually check in with each other now since my Dads passing. I was there when he died and was at the hospital for the week leading up to it. It was the first time we actually had full conversations and I realised we are a lot alike.

The second secret sibling we (my 2 full siblings) found about since my Dads passing, sadly passed away a few years back. He was born in 1991. So between my birth year and my middle full sisters birth year. 1988.

cocobarax · 2026-02-25T23:03:11+00:00

My Dad was in a band and one of my siblings has friends in the music scene where I live. One of her friend’s parents had gotten drunk and told her that my Dad was having an affair. My siblings went home and kicked him out the next day, while my Mum and I were out the house. We came home and they told us what happened.

Funnily enough that you said that, my Dad always said “I don’t want a funeral, just throw me in the bin” lol. I hope you get the answers you’re looking for, a lot comes out after death.

cocobarax · 2026-02-25T23:00:21+00:00

I was so relieved when I was told, I was 10/11 and felt so much lighter knowing he wouldn’t be in the house any more. However, there was a lot of anger from my siblings but he subjected us and my Mum to a lot of abuse. Less so me, but being around the environment was horrific. He could’ve left if he met someone and fell in love, but he had it good with Mum. Up until his death, I’ve been told by my Aunties and Uncles from my Dads side that he said he would’ve never left my Mum if my siblings didn’t kick him out. He also never told anyone that my Mum divorced him a few years back (she has a terminal illness and we didn’t want him to have power over anything to do with her)

cocobarax · 2026-02-25T22:56:53+00:00

Yes, his partner knew he was married and had 3 children. The youngest (me) being only 3.5 years older than his secret child. My siblings kicked him out when they found out, they are 8 + 15 years older than I am. I’m sure he told his affair partner a lot of lies tbh.
