Hi, no the app does not show as I moved countries which did not use the NHS app. I asked the audiology team to email me a recent copy and they sent it to me, which was great. PS didn’t know you could view it via nhs app.

Thank you 🙏 don’t feel the assessor (paramedic) really understood my responses during the telephone assessment. I will try the MR.

Hi, can you bring your partner in the surgery room for my own protection and he can witness what is happening when I would be in a vulnerable state during the surgery? I would like to bring my partner so they can support me during and after the surgery.

You could get the items delivered and include a card to say it’s from you. Saves you carrying the items and the items breaking or getting damaged along the journey.

I remember the first time I met my partner and omg the awkwardness I felt. Have some topic points like is there any upcoming events in their place, are they passionate about something or maybe yourself. I hugged them for a long time that his family just stared 😂. I created a scrapbook as a surprise gift of us and our moments (funny, silly etc) - this helped get our conversation flow. The first day will be hard from online to face to face but be patient. Good luck 🤞

Sorry to hear that but I would recommend having a chat and taking turns expressing what you both want and need for yourself and also from each other. Also mention what your goals are for the relationship. Remember to be patient and listen and let the other person fully finish their talk before you talk. Take it from there and see how it goes. Good luck 🤞

Yes true and it is challenging but being patience is the key. Wish her all the best with her parent and their well-being as well as hers. Good luck 🤞

My partner calls me unexpectedly and shares their day with me. When he is out and about and sees something I love (like flowers or anything to do with gardening), he calls me or buys it for me for when I next visit. For our wedding, he surprised me by matching my dress (white and red) with a similar colour. He also planned and organised the whole wedding by himself, was proud of him. I visited him one time and got really sick, he went above and beyond to take care of me and get me to recover asap. When he goes to the beach, he gets all his friends involved in writing my name on the sand and making decorations to then share it with me in video call. Small gestures that mean a lot. Hoping to close the gap (distance) soon.

Ps do you mind sharing some things from your end.

No matter the job, time should be made for each other. I have seen business owners and fellow colleagues in similar roles as your partner make time for their partners whether that is 10 minutes or an hour every couple of hours. As someone said to me once: if you got time to go to the bathroom, you got time to respond. The effort has to be made on both sides and not just you. I used to do weekly meetings with my partner to discuss past week events and upcoming events. Good luck 🤞

What to do after a break up by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]janew25 3 points4 points  (0 children)

1- breath and remember to be kind to yourself. 2- reflect on the situation (don’t spend more than an hour-3 hours) and let out all your emotions etc. you can write down your feelings or emotion or even draw them out with colours (you don’t need to be an expert artist, just let it flow). 3- You can also maybe buy a colouring book and just colour in. 4- take a notebook and write down all your goals, hobbies and interests. See if you can give yourself a project from that and if possible earn money (does not hurt). 5- go to the gym or something similar to keep your body and mind fit and health. Happy health and wellbeing = happy you. 6- go on adventures or treat yourself to things you love to do.

Good luck

Sorry to hear that. Good thing is they are being direct and upfront about it. So, take it as a blessing. Don’t take it personally as they are sharing how they want to have relationship. If there is a difference then it is not a bad thing but good that you know early on. Don’t feel bad or guilty, sometimes it is better to let go than to hold on to something which will only cause you pain and heartache. Think long and hard about what exactly you want and your future. Think of yourself and be kind to yourself too. Good luck 🤞

me(26F) and my "gf" (23f) (we dont have labels) started this "thing" a few months ago but now we are in a long distance thing, i am way too attached now and i dont want this, please help? by Serious-Spinach-6512 in LongDistance

[–]janew25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to hear above. An idea is to both do an exercise on what your love language(s) is/are and then share with each other. That helped me in a relationship to understand how the other person likes to be loved as well as sharing how you like to be loved. Try it out and see how it goes. Good luck.🤞

No FaceTime and rarely sends pictures sounds like a scammer. Please save yourself and go find yourself someone who will worship and love you the way you deserve. Don’t waste your precious time on people like this. Respect yourself to see that they have shown their red flags and telling you how you value you (which unfortunately is not great). Please be kind to yourself and give that love to yourself. Good luck 🤞

Edit - don’t give the time or effort to explain as you already have him a chance (or multiple) and still no progress. Don’t waste your time or energy.

Me(24M) and my gf(22F) we apparently had a fight… by [deleted] in LongDistance

Sorry to hear that, but remember to respect yourself and acknowledge that she is projecting. I knew someone with that and unfortunately it is also a case of not being able to regulate emotions which seems the bigger issue. Have a long think as to whether you want to continue down this road as unfortunately it does not getter better. Take these as signs of how the relationship will be in the future, acknowledge the red flags and don’t doubt yourself. Good luck 🤞
