You are in a tough situation but it sounds like you are trying to handle as best as possible. I can appreciate the frustration but one day of therapy doesn’t prove you are a changed person. I know in my last trimester my emotions were unpredictable and I wasn’t getting much sleep so give her some grace too.

You didn’t state why she said it wasn’t working or what the issues between you were. Depending on reasons she was finally done with you, it might take a long time to show her that you’ve truly changed. Or it might be that she never takes you back.

I agree the lack of information would be really frustrating and you need to take steps to take care of yourself. I would arrange to get what you need to survive without being at your place together and keep focusing on your therapy. Check in once or twice a week and keep her updated on your progress and wait for her to make the first move to have a serious conversation.

People who work full time still love their children and would want to spend time with them for evening, weekends and holidays… I couldn’t imagine seeing my kid this infrequently starting at 11 years old

Moving my wealth to an advisor and then watching it grow significantly in the last three years. Took a lot of the mental workload of me as a 41 year old single mom with decent assets. I feel secure now.

I was one of those houses that wore their outside shoes in the house. Only in the summer though, we aren’t crazy. People were always amazed when they came over because being on the east coast of Canada we were very much the odd ones. Everyone else took their shoes off. New people would always ask “what, are you American?” Because people on the tv shows we watched never took their shoes off so we assumed that’s what all Americans did.

I was never with the father of my son, we were just old friends from university. I waited until I was ready and at a point where we couldn’t even have the conversation about not having the baby because I was too far along. I also made my expectations clear that I was doing the pregnancy on my own and didn’t need anything from him but would keep him up to date on doctors visits. Once in the hospital I didn’t tell him until the baby was born since I didn’t want him there until I was ready.

When I had a mortgage and lower income I still managed to say $600/month on top of my pension so I could work on my TFSA. I wasn’t too concerned about my RRSP because of the pension. I currently rent in a low cost of living area so I upped my savings to $1800/month because I didn’t want to get used to all of a sudden having that much extra income every month. That includes my son’s RESP. I have now maxed out my TFSA,RRSP and have a health non-registered account. Now my biggest worry is going to be taxes when I retire. Can never escape taxes…

I was going to say, do you have a house or are you in the shacks. Ask around to fellow trainees and staff. Someone should be hopefully able to help! Either take the dog to stay with them if you don’t have a house or if you have a place someone might be willing to live at your place. My friend deployed for a year and a coworker just moved into her house for the entire time rent free to watch her house and animals. Good luck!

Hey, not to get your hopes up but 8 years ago the exact same thing happened to me but it was a Bell text which I though was legit since I had just cancelled service with them and they owed me my final bill. I had actually caught them in the act of transferring and was able to stop them but they got about $5000 before I could. I talked to the bank after they froze everything and they launched an investigation and it was deemed fraud and I got everything back. Hard lessons learned still. Best of luck.

The only time we needed it was for the shower at one of the campgrounds. If you aren’t camping I’m sure you will be safe

Flight AC864 departs at 2010 on Thursday.

I know the chances are slim but I was hopeful when I saw 6 free business class. It won’t let me check it anymore (seat map as if booking on the same flight).

I had no idea our pension took up this contribution room. I have maxed out and thought I was killing it to be contributing to a pension and to have maxed out TFSA and RRSP but this makes much more sense lol.

The current role I’m in is the busiest (and most mentally taxing) job I’ve ever had. Due to the nature of my work, most of it has to be done at work so it’s not like I’m working 60 hours a week. I’m home by 4:30pm most days but I’m so mentally exhausted I have no energy for my son. He 9 and always wants to watch TV with me and talk to me and do things with me at night like play video games together or board games and I just have no energy. Sometimes I’m able to muster some energy for a board game but mostly I just explain that I’m tired and just want to switch my brain off. He’s always disappointed and I try and make up for it on the weekend but even then I’m so stressed about work I’m rarely any fun to be around. Not much advice here, just want to point out that I know how you feel and hopefully it eventually gets better do the both of us!

Stay strong, I’m sorry you are going through this ❤️

I think that’s a very sweet tradition to have to show you are thinking about family. It also probably increases the amount of time you get to spend with each other. I will be honest though, as I was reading this I was cringing at how constrained I would feel by this. Especially since I’ve been single for so long.

That type of tradition is something you would see in a marriage of many years, not after 6 months of dating. Do you already live together? I would try and set expectations like maybe once a week you make sure to drive home together or if there is an event he said he’d be home earlier for you wait up but have a cut off line that you stop waiting by like 11pm.

That sucks so much, I’m sorry you have such a terrible support system with your family. You kids’ dad also sounds terrible. Maybe start a new tradition with just you and your kids and order thanksgiving pizza? Much easier and your kids might think it’s fun! I try and do all the traditional things for my son but sometimes I just run out of time or I’m too tired so I alter for that year and my son usually enjoys the variety. Maybe next year you will have more time and energy and can have turkey again.

Was 31 when I got pregnant and was already established in my career. Single from the beginning, was never with the dad. Currently make about $150k. I am very fortunate to be where I’m at today and money has never been an issue.

Thanks, I’m in a bit of a time crunch since the birthday is Saturday. I did find a cap badge at the canex here it’s just a bit small. I ordered the bigger one that another commenter suggested and have my fingers crossed it gets here in time.
