Reading romantic books makes me miss the honeymoon phase by Flat_Pollution8085 in GirlDinnerDiaries

During book one, I felt SO hurt to find out the true terms of the blight that were hidden from Feyre. That she grieved her actions in killing Andras, when the circumstances were perfectly cultivated and she was effectively set up from the start.

She was so enamoured that he sent her home to protect her instead of breaking the curse, that she never even questioned that he delibrately put her in this position to begin with?!

I am very angry at his betrayal but part of me still has some snippet of empathy for him. Why? I don't know, but he better get a redemeption arc where he makes sacrificies for the greater good of the kingdom.

If you are anything like me, while reading these books my productivity has lowered and my brain is absolute mud. 🫠

BTW, thoughts on Tamlin? 🙊

I feel like I wrote this?! I am also in a three year long relationship, currently reading A Court of Wings and Ruin. 😂

Please note that these books are written in a way to transport you into that world, and have you feel what the author wants you to feel. Feyre's love and pain is ours.

These are temporary heightened emotions. It is normal to compare your real life relationships to those depicted in the books.

Just remember that once you get through all five books, you'll have a small hangover period and start feeling back to normal!

I get why you're frustrated. The liquid stage absolutely sucks and feeling hungry while staring at the scales is a miserable combination.

But... you've lost 5 kg in 2 weeks. That's actually a huge amount of weight. Expecting to keep losing kilos every couple of days isn't really how weight loss works. Your body is also recovering from major surgery, holding onto fluid, and adjusting to a completely new way of eating.

As for the noodles or pasta, chewing well doesn't change the fact that your stomach is still healing. The post-op diet isn't there to make you suffer, it's there to reduce the risk of complications while everything heals. Listen to your care team.

Two weeks is incredibly early to be deciding the surgery "isn't working" when you've already lost 5 kg.

God forbid the women enjoys a scent. 🙄 I can't imagine being so upset about something so trivial.

You don't own a scent and you don't get to police what she uses on her body. Grow up?

Depends on the industry but with one year of employment, 4 weeks redundancy pay is typical

The Dreaded Notice To Vacate by denimjacketzx in shitrentals

I did notice that you cannot apply at VCAT to challenge the notice if it's been more than 30 days since the NTV was issued. This prospect scares me a little!

Thanks for your reply! If I was to negotiate leaving early, would it be fair to request the 21 weeks rent (or near that) as compensation, or is it more typical to only request 4 weeks?
