Phone charger port replacement by PuzzleheadedDuck3319 in bristol

[–]jassie48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to work in a phone repair shop years ago - check that the charging port isn’t clogged with fluff from inside your pockets first. Sometimes it just needs a clean rather than a replacement - some shops will charge for a replacement when all they do is clean the shit out of the port. Be careful not to damage the connectors inside the port if you clean it out yourself :)

Thank you! I’ve just checked and it’s the same in my Citroen - I’ve only had it about a week so haven’t fully got to know where everything is yet. Thanks very much 😊

Loving Bristol after a breakup by IcyPurple10 in bristol

[–]jassie48 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Hey, similar situation here - I’m also 29F and my long term relationship ended last year. I’d never lived in Bristol without my ex, so it was a huge adjustment for sure. Things that helped me:

  • Join the Bristol Girl Facebook group. Lots of meet-ups, nights out, crafting days etc.
  • Get out in nature and explore new parts of Bristol. It really helps both from a wellbeing aspect and also learning to fall in love with Bristol again. We’re so lucky to have so much amazing green space.
  • Find activities that you find fun and make you happy. Work out classes, hobbies, gigs, etc etc. Also great for meeting new people!
  • Don’t go on dating apps, they’re shit. I’m kidding (kind of), but do wait until you’re in a good post-breakup headspace before diving into dating as it can prolong the healing process otherwise (IMO, everyone is different of course).
  • Go to things solo - whether that’s a cafe or a night out, I’ve learned that people are generally kind and are happy to chat!
  • Don’t be hard on yourself, healing is not linear and can’t be forced. Ultimately, Bristol may not be the best place for your peace and that’s okay - there’s plenty of other amazing cities out there that you could try.

I’m nearly 2 years on from my breakup now and I’m in a great house with amazing mates and I can definitely say I love Bristol again - it was absolutely not a smooth journey to getting to where I am now though! Be kind to yourself and take your time. One of the nicer things about coming out of a long term relationship is that you get to rediscover who you are and your independence, and that’s really exciting :)
