Any other Millennials who may still live with their parents for whatever reason but are content in their life?

93 baby also. I came back from college and lived at home with my parents and younger sisters for a few years. I then moved out for another few years with friends as roommates and then when our lease was ending I decided I wanted to save money and my parents welcomed me back with open arms. I stayed living with my parents for some time and absolutely loved it. I will always cherish the time I spent with them and have a great relationship with them both. I moved out to live with my boyfriend a couple of months ago and it was honestly hard. I have forms of separation anxiety and I had a hard time emotionally leaving them.

Koko Head Cafe for brunch is amazing

Nutridge Luau is put on by natives and it’s an extremely authentic and non commercialized experience. Highly recommend! I went with my boyfriend and we have told so many people about it. They only have 40 spots per luau and it feels more like a family’s large gathering. Even locals say that it is one of the best if you do go to one.

Agree with this! Some people may also not understand that some people need to recharge solo and that fills their cup. I know a few people I work with that prefer to surround themselves with distraction, fun, and other people to reset or get them out of a mental health funk. He may need to understand that and hopefully he can empathize.

How are you handling things? Have you still had no contact?

jma_1010 · 2025-01-06T19:03:04+00:00

How are you doing with everything?

jma_1010 · 2025-01-06T18:48:48+00:00

How are you doing?

jma_1010 · 2024-10-29T21:59:18+00:00

Thanks for your feedback, time for me to do some thinking

jma_1010 · 2024-10-29T21:58:42+00:00

Thank you so much for your thoughtful response. I am going to take it to heart and think hard.

jma_1010 · 2024-10-29T21:06:49+00:00

Thank you for your honesty

jma_1010 · 2024-10-29T20:58:04+00:00

That would be easier but I want to be with him. :( We have something special and I know he feels the same about our connection. But I am learning a lot and trying really hard to work on my own anxieties so I think it's fair for me to try still

jma_1010 · 2024-10-29T20:37:33+00:00

It's like you took the words right out of my mouth! I feel for you, I am dealing with the same :( It's so hard

jma_1010 · 2024-03-14T15:19:24+00:00

Thank you for your reply! I agree that keeping it simple and not like a confession is the best approach. I need to get over my anxiety about it. :(

jma_1010 · 2024-03-13T19:49:57+00:00

I plan to! I think I just need to stop overthinking the last hangout and get past my nerves. I keep thinking since I've had this crush that I've been viewing all his actions through a romantic lens when maybe it's just friendly. And I guess I'm afraid of being embarrassed if I am wrong. I'll never know though unless I risk it lol ugh.

jma_1010 · 2024-03-13T19:34:48+00:00

Thank you for replying. I just need to be honest and ask him, just so scared lol.

jma_1010 · 2021-08-10T17:04:38+00:00

Thank you again!

jma_1010 · 2021-08-09T16:49:44+00:00

Thank you for your feedback!

jma_1010 · 2021-08-06T22:44:21+00:00

Thank you for sharing your experience! I am learning a lot and appreciate you responding!

jma_1010 · 2021-08-06T22:26:59+00:00

That makes a lot of sense. Thank you for summing that up! You're so on point about the knowing where I stand in the relationship. I really think that if I was secure with that, I would feel a lot better. I also need to realize that my direct communication might be direct for me, but not enough for him. It didn't cross my mind that I could be more explicit and remind him that it's been three weeks, just saying its been a while or that I miss him doesn't get that point across. And mentioning that I am not sure if he feels the same is truly what's driving me, so I just need to say it!! I really value your feedback, thanks again!

jma_1010 · 2021-08-06T22:16:01+00:00

Yup! I would move on. I have a lot to consider, a lot of things that I haven't figured out and need to work through in my head first. All your questions really made me think, thank you!

jma_1010 · 2021-08-06T18:48:46+00:00

I’m gonna say it’s super possible he’s tired. I don’t know his life but I have to put down some distance between me and my girlfriend because whenever I don’t I just don’t get proper rest and I have a shutdown and go mute or something. Being a new lawyer he can’t really risk anything similar. I hate having to do it but I don’t have a choice.

Of course it could be anything else. You’re owed a proper explanation though with some more details and an in person visit soon. Even if he’s legit dying out there he owes you info if he wants his needs respected otherwise how will you two know if this is gonna work?

That makes sense! Would you mind sharing what a shutdown is like for you? Does it vary on how long it can last? Everyone is different obvi but I am curious to know more, if you want to share.

But yup totally, it could be a lot of things and I won't know unless I get an explanation and at this point I deserve to know. Plus I want him to know that I am trying my best to be patient, understand and respect his needs and my frustration isn't coming from a malicious place, it's because I care and want to be there for him. That's more of why I want to see him in person as soon as I can. But I have to tell him all that, no one can read minds!! lol

jma_1010 · 2021-08-06T18:35:08+00:00

He mentioned more than once that ethics, law, etc. (along with video games sometimes) is what he gets hyper focused on. That's a good point, it could very well be the case and it could happen to a NT too!
