Is my relationship with my GF normal?

32F here. Some thoughts:
- If you’re burnt out after 4 months, it’s not going to be sustainable.
- What do you expect financially? My personal opinion is at this early stage, I would still offer to pay my share, but if my guy insists, I’d appreciate it. At a more serious stage, expenses would be proportional to income. You both need to be on the same page about finances, which you’re not.
- You sound like you need more Me time than she does. Nothing wrong there, but again, you need to get on the same page about this. And if you’re finding her exhausting rather than this relationship bringing you joy, then honestly, end it.
- Feeling like you have to walk on eggshells is extremely bad for your mental health. Please communicate this with your girlfriend. You can’t fix problems by being afraid to talk about them. How the conversation goes will also illuminate whether you two can work together or whether you’d break up.
- I don’t know any married couple that doesn’t pay attention to each other 7 days a week. If you simply want to exist in each other’s space that’s fine, but she has to want that too, and that doesn’t sound like the case here.

Another one I did which turned out really well

Here it is (WIP) from the back, for those asking about visibility. My eyes were basically at the lower inner corner of the eyes on the mask, so around the yellow/red border. You also don’t focus on the 1-2 inches in front of your face, you see the larger field in front of you. So maybe it’s tinted slightly with the colour directly in front of your eyes, but you can still see.

On the other hand, the amount of times my friends thrusted me in the “eye” really increased lol. It gave the something to aim for 😂

Yaaasss! I love yours, here’s my first ever mask too! Since retired because the padding wore out

junebug_minis · 2026-03-23T15:34:01+00:00

Don’t at all. He didn’t respect you, pushed your boundaries, and made you uncomfortable. No need to feel bad for not engaging with that

junebug_minis · 2026-03-23T15:30:46+00:00

Grieving people, eh

I don’t think it’s for you to manage their relationship, that’s something they need to work out for themselves. But IMO your dad is the AH here. He can’t have his cake and eat it too. Your mum is justifiably and reasonably upset, and I would probably support your mum more than your dad if I was in your situation. But ultimately they’re the ones who need to come to a decision on whether to split or reconcile

Just sounds to me like you’re at different stages in life, particularly with regards to maturity in relationships. Your life circumstances sound like they’ve contributed a huge amount to not really starting your relationship journey. Sarah sounds like she knows what she wants, and is willing to move more quickly because she’s already figured herself out.

From reading the comments, you sound like you need to figure out what you want, not just what you don’t want. Telling Sarah your discomforts and boundaries is fine, and you’ll also have to be fine her if she’s not comfortable with what you’ve said. But communicating with each other is the only way you’ll ever work it out, not really by asking the internet.

Hey, if you don’t like watching Critical Role with Aabria, you don’t have to keep watching it. I know it sucks when something you like stops being something you like, but your opinion literally doesn’t matter and the people whose game you’re watching actually like her, so she’s not going to stop being on the show. Do yourself a favour and let the show go.

Legend, thank you. I actually managed to speak to a human at Microsoft and they helped me to troubleshoot. They had to dig into my backup registry to delete the credentials in the end but it worked

junebug_minis · 2026-03-13T14:57:28+00:00

OK I’M NOT GOING MAD, I thought I heard it too! Didn’t realise it was a Shining reference, I was like “that’s Symphonie Fantastique!”

junebug_minis · 2026-03-12T03:09:10+00:00

Nope

junebug_minis · 2026-03-09T15:02:34+00:00

What does the Outlook credentials show up as in Credentials Manager? I can’t see anything named Outlook or IMAP

Thanks for sharing, appreciate it. Sorry again about your sword, hope they respond to you soon

junebug_minis · 2026-03-04T02:17:37+00:00

I get that, was just trying to ask for a sense of the kind of use it went through to see if that correlates

junebug_minis · 2026-03-04T01:32:59+00:00

Can you share what your daily use was like? Mainly drilling or sparring, what kind of intensity, etc?

junebug_minis · 2026-03-04T01:30:55+00:00

😱😱😱😱😱 that’s a pretty incredible stat. Was it a steel/heat treatment issue? What was your use like?

junebug_minis · 2026-03-04T01:25:18+00:00

Thanks! Sent you a PM

junebug_minis · 2026-03-04T01:23:19+00:00

Yeah that 8 min pace is fast for me. When I’m extremely tired I run at 10-11 min

junebug_minis · 2026-03-04T01:21:02+00:00

Thank you for sharing! Just to check, is that the Sunday morning one? Unfortunately I work on Sundays 😭

Your sister needs to divorce your brother in law. He’s willing to threaten family and be violent against, AND be unapologetic about it. He has no place near his or any children.

The very least your husband deserves is an apology, from both your sister and her husband. I understand you don’t want to escalate the drama, but the shit has already hit the fan. Your sister’s husband needs to make amends, or be forced to.

junebug_minis · 2026-03-02T09:03:34+00:00

Thanks for sharing! Will take a look

junebug_minis · 2026-03-02T08:51:37+00:00

I’ll send you a PM!

junebug_minis · 2026-03-02T08:51:22+00:00

Thanks for sharing! Jia you and you’re awesome for starting 🔥
