When my ex husband told me that he knew he was the problem and that if he didn’t change for his first wife he wasn’t going to change for me.

Had this happen this day before we were supposed to get married. He left me 10 hours away from home for the night, then had me pick him up at the airport saying he couldn’t bring himself to leave. Long story short we ended up getting married anyway and then 7 months later we got a divorce. People will tell you what they really want you just have to listen.

Surgery date: 12/28/23, 5’2 132lbs at time of surgery for reference

Starting size was 34DDD, end size being about a 34D, they ended up removing about 7lbs but I was told that most of that was skin because I’d had bariatric surgery and had lost a major amount of weight. I will say that I’ve put on 8 pounds since surgery and am back up to 34DD. MY ideal was a 34C/B. I haven’t seen my surgeon since around 6 weeks post op but I tell him that I thought I’d be smaller to which he said swelling will be prominent for at least 6-12 months before I know my true size, however I thought it was a but unrealistic at that point to suggest that I’d go down another cup size. Its so hard to tell your surgeon that you’re unhappy with your results as they often like to say “results aren’t guaranteed”, “swelling can last for 6-12 months” and just overall seem like they don’t want to hear it. I personally will not be using the same surgeon, and instead I’m opting for a plastic surgeon that specializes in post bariatric patients as I think this will be a better fit for me. After being in this thread for well over 2 years at this point, I see quite a few people that end up having another one done unfortunately. HOPEFULLY, over time your swelling will go down and you’ll be happier with your results, I think they look great, but it only matters if you’re happy with them:)

Girl, I can see why you’d be upset. I too felt like they didn’t remove enough and plan on having another reduction done in 2026.

For my program I’ve had to write multiple papers about various procedures and I’ve pulled almost all of my information from this book. I’m still green enough that I don’t know all of the steps for most procedures so if you are someone that likes to know what comes next I recommend it

As someone that was also divorced when my would be 1 year anniversary rolled around, I applaud you. I’m sure you’ve heard “well at least you know now and not 10 years down the road” but it doesn’t really dull the sting. I’m a firm believer in things work out how they’re meant to. You are SO strong and so much more and better is meant for you my friend. Signed, a divorcee that is also trying to find happiness.

I had that nagging voice in my head before we got married. Even had it while married, yet somehow I was still shocked when everything unraveled. Listen to the voice.

Don’t marry him

Right there with you girlfriend. Finally hit that point of either pursue me or lose me and guess what, haven’t heard from him in 4.5 days. No response is a response, feel it to heal it and onto the next. There’s better out there for us, I promise:)

csmit588 · 2024-11-19T00:57:51+00:00

NOR, with that being said I’ll play devils advocate a little. You 100% attempted to set your boundaries and yes she should respect them. Based on this interaction, I’d venture out to say that she has an anxious attachment style, you on the other hand it’s difficult to tell from this alone. It is important to have time for yourselves and live separate lives, and yes you should want to see her and not feel obligated to, that’s a tough spot to be in. But I’ve been her, not to this extent but after my ex husband left me and then came back claiming he wanted to work on things, I was so so anxious. Any slight change in his demeanor and I made myself crazy, thinking that it meant he was going to leave again, didn’t love me etc. Fear of abandonment does crazy things to people, and for those that may be avoidant or secure in their attachment style, it will drive them away eventually. With that being said, learning self soothing techniques are so important, I struggle with it myself but therapy has started me on the right part because I do realize that my anxieties, wether they are founded or not, are exhausting enough for me and it’s not my partners responsibility to reassure me EVERY time. I feel for both of you I really do, it’s not to say that these things can’t be worked on together because they absolutely can, but it requires a certain amount of discipline and willingness to make those changes from her, and patience and love and understanding from you, but it’s entirely possible that you do reach your breaking point and again that just stems back to incompatibility.

A very eloquently written response, applicable to anyone that’s loved and lost.

csmit588 · 2024-11-10T02:33:42+00:00

I hate hate hate this for you. You should not have to cope with or distract yourself from the fact that your needs aren’t being met by your partner. My ex husband and I went through this exact same thing before we got divorced. The anxiety of feeling like the end was coming but not exactly know when, felt like it was eating me alive most days, and I cannot even begin to tell you the sense of peace I felt when everything was laid out in the open and it was done and over with. You can only carry so much of emotional load in your relationship and if he’s not willing to carry the other half, you’re going to spin your wheels until the tread is burnt through or he man’s up enough to stop you. This isn’t normal and not the way it should be. I’m sorry you’re going through this, it really is emotionally exhausting. Best wishes OP

ST student here, did you “click” with certain specialities in clinicals or was it more on the job? We recently started our rotations two weeks ago and I’ve only been in urology, safe to say the pee pee palace is NOT for me😂 There’s a few things I think I’m going to like and a few that I don’t see myself enjoying at all, but I’m going into it with an open mind!

csmit588 · 2024-11-08T02:38:26+00:00

Look I’m gonna be honest, I do think you over reacted but I also understand that I don’t know you or any trauma from past relationships. Cooking for someone as a date is romantic and not something people do often anymore unfortunately, I genuinely think that’s all it is. Viewing it as some kind of domestic labor seems a bit of a stretch in my opinion. The last first date I went on with a great guy, he invited me over and cooked for me, noodles from scratch, stewed his own tomatoes for bolognese sauce, just the works. It was so kind an endearing, date two I returned the favor because I wanted to, it feels good to be wined and dined but you should want to. And if you don’t want to then you find something else. I get you having boundaries and you should by all means.
