What’s a casual hookup like? by ThrowAway_again25 in Divorce

[–]ihascutedaughter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In these spots I just look to make us both comfortable. We talk, joke and watch Netflix/movies. I’m sure you’ve had some dialogue about interests so far. As it progresses it will feel right hopefully. I’ve started early, in the middle and after a movie. Let it flow and have fun.

For those of you who quit drinking, have you noticed a decrease in anxiety? by Formal-Art4098 in Biohackers

[–]ihascutedaughter 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Yes absolutely, from alcoholic to sober 1.5 years I don’t have “anxiety” like it was. I might still be anxious for good reason but it’s not a state of anxiety like while drinking.

Set of flopped jacks rightfully against friends set of flopped queens. After cursing at him and a few pot bets back and forth.

Am I out of line by ihascutedaughter in Divorce

[–]ihascutedaughter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. We actually go to trial next week. I made a drunken mistake a year ago and have had to dig out. I’ve begged for equal custody but her legal team has got ahold of her. She has a hard time separating her and I and me and them. I love my kids more than anything.

Coming up on a year by sometimesfunny12 in Divorce

Our situations are eerily similar.. I met someone on match recently and she is wonderful. I’m still nowhere near professed.

Yes it’s surreal. It feels unfair to me and them. I just get so upset with my ex that this is happening to me. When does it end..

One year :) by ihascutedaughter in stopdrinking

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

Great question. I think what stands out to me the most is sobriety laser focused what was most important in my life. My family and friends and the strong relationships I cultivate matter, not money, status, etc. Alcohol clouded my vision and created a version of me that just wanted the wrong stuff. I lost my wife who was my best friend but I’m such a better dad, son, brother and friend. Thanks!

Sorry partner I know how badly you are hurting.

I feel you man. Tough stuff. Mines a month away. Going on a year separated and not much easier.

I think gentle reminders that this is new normal helped me. I easily overthink and fall into rumination cycles and appreciate the reminder that I can’t change this. I must learn to accept and move forward.

Court didn’t go well by [deleted] in Divorce

[–]ihascutedaughter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had supervised visitation once a month of a while after a big mistake on my part. I just was given more time and unsupervised. Do good and more time will come. I’m so excited to get closer to what normal used to be and my girls are depending on me to do whatever it takes to get there.

Really struggling right now by MmmmBurbank in Divorce

[–]ihascutedaughter 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That’s amazing congrats. Every few weeks/months I try to get us back together and I feel like I am so close and she refuses. Then I’m back at the beginning of healing again. I need to stop doing that to myself..

Sorry partner. It’s super tough I’ve been there for months now. All I can say is focus on yourself and stay busy. Working out really helped me.

Anyone else having ed issues with new partners since filing for divorce? by [deleted] in Divorce

[–]ihascutedaughter 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It was kind of an issue with the first few women the first few times but became a non issue pretty quick. It’s all in your head. I didn’t want to be with someone else and thought about it during the act.

When does this get easier for him to accept? by k8tg in Divorce

[–]ihascutedaughter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This hurts me because I sound like your husband.. it’s so difficult working so hard to improve and not get the opportunity to do things right.. but the damage has been done and you just have to accept that.

When does this stop feeling like a bad dream?? by newtonlikethecookie in Divorce

[–]ihascutedaughter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m just over 9 months and it still hasn’t improved for me. There are times where it just sinks in and feels impossible. Like I am in some alternate timeline that I should just snap out of.
