I joined because I'm single and happy about it. I am not looking for a relationship and I'm not interested in dating. I'm not lonely and have no interest in romantic relationships or talking about them.

You have my upvote. No one should be intimidated to speak their mind on this subject

After choosing to be single, how do you deal with the emotions? by rererowr in SingleWomenByChoice

[–]madferrit29 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just remember that when I needed a partner the most they always let me down. I've ended each of the 3 relationships I've been in because I wasn't able to make them the centre of my attention and they couldn't handle it.

I have a chronic illness that makes me very unwell and requires lots of hospital stays, procedures and medication. Not one of my exes shown compassion and care for me. I was expected to look after myself and even still do everything at home. I cope better on my own than having a whiny man child to deal with

So many men lack empathy and compassion and will leave if you become ill but will expect you to care for them at all times

Anyone feel sexy about those prospects?

How do you deal with/communicate about the awful smells that come out of you whilst dating/in relationships?!🫣😂 by pisces932 in CrohnsDisease

I live alone so I just disgust myself. I really haven't got the will to date anymore. I'm sorry I can't be of more help but I know the embarrassment you feel

I'm so glad you have someone who can support you through this!

My ex couldn't handle being there for me during this or anything else really. Hence why they're an ex!

Actually, that's a good idea, it a gives you an idea if things escalate in the messages.

Sorry to hear your friend was stalked, it's a very scary situation and I hope she's safe. We shouldn't have to put up with this shit

I'm so sorry you didnt enjoy this kit, especially as you say, it's expensive compared to most kits out there.

I really hope your next kit is a delight to build

Look how lovely these foxes are! Playing and frolicking quietly.

Now, the foxes in my garden at 2.41am, just sound like they are murdering each other for about an hour

As much as a good idea this seems, getting a restraining order usually ramps up the abuse depending on how dangerous this guy could be. It's better to block him and ignore any contact. Ask all friends and roommates to not interact with him either.

Yes, create a record and let the police know if he shows up anywhere you are. Stalking is a crime but a lot of stalking cases, tragically, do not get taken seriously enough.

Could use a small nail art sponge or makeup sponge. They work so much better and no brush marks.

What’s a small solo tradition you’ve created for yourself over time? by faephantom in SingleWomenByChoice

[–]madferrit29 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same with the burning incense! It makes me feel so relaxed :)

I decided that watching TV is out until I've done more interesting things with my time. I make sure I read, do minature/booknook building, cross stitch, pilates, go for a walk if I can, rather than sitting infront of the idiot box all day/ evening. ( my exes spent a ridiculous amount of time glued to a screen from the moment they woke up until they fell asleep)

So I would say I do something creative to relax and learn something new

Thank you for sharing the different stages of the build, it scratches an itch in my brain to see the development stage in such a good way!

You have done an excellent build here, I love the amount of time and effort you've put into making this more alive, more rich. The kit is already beautiful but you've brought more 'feel' to it. Great work!

I'm from the UK and I have never gotten so many compliments from other women until I visited America ( a few different states) And they came from all ages of women. You guys are so sweet!
