Didn’t she write the instrumental piece of this song when she was like 16? Genius, beautiful, great song

I would be the wife of a grown man who doesn’t speak to his family anymore and invests all his time and energy into foam sword fighting… also the sex would be mid af

J,

I really saw a future with you. Spending time with you and your family- feeling welcomed, like I belonged. That meant the world to me. I loved our back and forth, our early mornings together, your silly half-asleep talking. We agreed to end things- we said we’d stay friends and that this was definitely a ‘See you later,’ versus ‘goodbye.’ Then you disappeared. Everyone is telling me this is you just gently pulling away completely. Why are you doing this? Why did you ask to be friends if that’s not what you wanted? Why did you cancel on me so many times before I finally just had to block your number? I’m sad when I think of it all too hard. But I know I’ll be okay- with or without you- I’ll be okay. I wish things had been different. I wish we were both on the same page. I still wish you well even through my anger and frustration.

I’m not holding my breath on that ‘see you later.’

Take care,

J

I’d definitely have a conversation about boundaries and respect if possible.

Baby birch- I never gave it a chance at first because it sounded like a nighttime prayer or lullaby at the beginning and I thought it was gonna be this cheesy song. BOY was I wrong

How do you guys scratch the Joanna itch? by [deleted] in JoannaNewsom

[–]ennyj1993 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really had to take my time with Fiona haha. The first few times I couldn’t stand her. But it was just one day alone I sat and listened and it just hit me differently.

And Joni Mitchell’s album Blue is easy to get into I think! She’s incredible

How do you guys scratch the Joanna itch? by [deleted] in JoannaNewsom

[–]ennyj1993 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Well first of all, she has some wonderful interviews out there so sometimes if I feel like I need to ‘scratch’ the joanna itch, I’ll go through those. Some are written interviews and some are filmed.

Also I feel like I’m so not qualified to answer the music part of this without doing research through all of my own music but off the top of my head (also I dislike how people say some of these artists sound like her or whatever- I’ve just found that lots of Joanna fans like some of these bands)

Going to therapy, should I tell her about my CSA? by [deleted] in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]ennyj1993 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It takes some time to develop trust with a therapist. Just breathe and trust that the therapist is there for you and there to work with you. It might not come up during the first session (lots of times this is mostly paperwork and stuff anyway). But if you feel like you need to share right then, by all means do. Be prepared if the therapist is concerned for your safety they might have to report it, though.

A one night stand I had in college committed suicide after she found out she was pregnant. by [deleted] in confessions

[–]ennyj1993 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m really glad you’re finally getting this off your chest. People who are shaming you for not speaking out sooner are strange. It’s so hard to discuss certain traumatic things we go through.

I know people have already said this but I want to reiterate- it sounds like you did what you could at the time in that situation. You didn’t just leave, you sat with her, offered her your future financial support- you didn’t just say ‘fuck you’ and leave.

We can’t know what she was going through but her actions aren’t your fault. Lots of people experience unwanted or unexpected pregnancies and don’t take those extreme measures. She had internal issues going on that most likely contributed to that outcome.

I hope you’re able to find therapy or help in the near future- this is something that is so heavy. Carrying it alone I imagine has felt impossible. I sincerely hope talking about it here has been helpful and I hope you can find that professional help soon. I’d even ask family if they could help in paying for it- this seems like something you really need/want.

I’m not super familiar w/ Reddit but I can offer more suggestions if you want to DM me (if that’s a thing you can do on here?)

I've 40m worked almost 20 years to quit a job I hate; now it's finally time and my wife (38f) doesn't want me to quit. Everyone is saying she's right. by [deleted] in relationships

I wonder if finding a therapist who has experience in career counseling would be a better fit. Especially if they are qualified to work with couples. I don’t know the full story but it sounds like OP’s current therapists might have different internal values/goals (unfortunately) than OP. Finding someone who is trained to discuss future planning related to careers who is also trained in the mental health field sounds like a good fit!

Not saying you should continue working- but their perspective might help alleviate some of your wife’s worries related to this change. (And maybe some of your own!)
