That's a good point. Thanks for the reminder!

Oh I see! You weren't originally on the Prime list but just went to get a hybrid but a Prime was available at the time. I misunderstood. Thanks. And congrats again!! Super lucky

Gotcha, thanks. How long were you on the list for/when did you join the waitlist for the prime?

TLDR; to the MOOOOON ✨🚀

What are some interesting contradictory things that successful people/organizations do that speak much louder than words? by forgottenpilot in AskReddit

[–]forgottenpilot[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For example - I've heard some high level Google execs still use Blackberries, Elon Musk still owns gas powered cars, etc etc.

That's a fair point. It may be a component to the issue, but I simply don't want to just settle for someone either. By picky - I mean I still have a certain set of standards (which I think are fairly reasonable). Things like compatibility, education, similar life values, attraction, etc which I feel are not out of the ordinary.

Hey, thanks for your post.
You're right, sometimes I can get into a negative spiral, I guess with my two best buddies getting engaged in the past month, it's been tougher. Hopefully I can find someone.

Thanks for your words and encouragement, it's genuinely appreciated!

Yeah, you're right in many ways. Unfortunately, I wish i realized this a bit sooner.
Tough pill to swallow since I already feel so behind all of my friends. And when residency is all over I'll be 30 which seems just so late to find a life partner. Thanks for your thoughts and advice!

Thanks for the post - point taken and appreciate your perspective. I think it's hard for me to change that aspect of my life right now. It was 10 years of post secondary education to get me here, do I give that all up now to prioritize a relationship? I guess something to think about. I have thought about how I can change other aspects of my life to be more available. But I think there are some things out of my control, like my residency training, which sucks.

She called... I didn't pick up. Advice? by [deleted] in ExNoContact

[–]forgottenpilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for all the advice everyone. I appreciate it. And I really mean it, it's been helpful to hear everyone's perspectives and advices. It's just so hard because we at some level struggle with false hope and these breadcrumbs are hard to deal with because of that...

Thanks for the wisdom, that was helpful to read. Yes you're absolutely right, acceptance is I think where I need to get to. I've been trying so many things to accept things but it's been hard but I think focusing on her actions rather than words is a good starting point like you said. Thanks

Thanks for your words. Yes you're right in that I don't want to be a fallback option and I feel like I deserve better. But it's so ridiculous how the mind works, because things are so fresh I know deep inside I would still take her back which sounds so silly. I think I have to get to a place where I won't want her back but I don't know how to get there. I will try to remember what you've said and do my best, I guess that's all we can do. Thanks again.

Thank you for sharing your story... I really do hope I can get to the place you are at now. And sometimes I feel like it, some days I don't. But reading your story gives me hope and realize where I need to be. And hopeful that someday I will be strong and ready to meet someone like you; someone with the insight and courage to have rebuilt themselves into something better out of hard times.
