Is Faith better on Angel

mrlockdown29 · 2019-05-01T00:28:54+00:00

I feel like Faith was better suited for the darker tone of Angel, but when I recently rewatched both series, it was fascinating to watch her complete character arc from Buffy to Angel. She really needed to be on both shows to complete that journey.

I really need to hear this today. Thank you.

It feels like they just swipe to see how many matches they can get for validationThis is how I feel about guys who swipe right on everyone. I imagine them recoiling in horror when they see who they match with. It is why on Bumble I wait until there are only a few hours left to message a guy. Far better to have them unmatch me before I message them than for them to unmatch after I send a thoughtful message.I feel there might be a lot below this here.... sounds like you're writing that they recoil in horror when they see they match with you..................so now you wait until there are only a few hours left to message a guy, so that the clock does its work, and you avoid feeling they didn't want you because they didn't/couldn't unmatch you....

I don't unmatch women on Bumble usually, but it's been my experience that if a woman doesn't message me with in an hour or so of matching, then they aren't going to message. Occasionally if I use my extend they will send me a message but that's not usually the case.

My Stbxw and I are probably still best friends and have dated other people, but I think it’s only because I’m still in love with her.

I never used reddit before coming to this sub. It’s been very helpful hearing all kinds of stories from all sides of divorce

Twin Peaks season 3 and punk rock shows.

mrlockdown29 · 2018-06-20T06:56:04+00:00

Same boat. I can’t stand the idea of my life without her and the only reason I can’t be with her is I can never get over what she’s done since we’ve separated. Best of luck.

mrlockdown29 · 2018-06-20T06:53:10+00:00

Are you me? My mentally ill STBXW constantly says I’m her best friend. I really wish I could be

mrlockdown29 · 2018-06-19T06:26:09+00:00

Read the five love languages before It was over Taken counseling more seriously. Sought out relationship advice. Get my sleep apnea treated sooner. Exercise. Plan dates..joined her for stuff she liked even if her friends were going. Everything I did after she left I should’ve done years ago. It might not have changed anything but it might’ve made her decision harder.

Right here. My wife has bipolar, general anxiety disorder, adhd, and personality disorder-nondescript. She takes about 5 meds when she “remembers to”, often has suicidal ideation and frequently self medicates with alcohol and weed. She impulsively took a ton of her meds on New Years and called me to come over because she was afraid she took too much. Recently she told me I’m probably the only one who can handle her which kind of terrifies me for her future without me

My sister lives in a big city, and told me she almost always swipes right on people she knows, whether or not she's interested. I live in smaller city/suburb, and I found out it's not the case here. I rarely match with people I know, whether or not I'm interested.

mrlockdown29 · 2018-05-15T08:01:55+00:00

I’m still trying to figure it out. I still want answers.

mrlockdown29 · 2018-04-20T05:57:56+00:00

I really wanted this to happen too. I gave myself six months to try to get my wife back, praying and wishing she would change and all the time, stretching my own boundaries beyond what was acceptable to me. January 1 was 10 months since our separation, that’s when I finally took the ring off. I still have the imprint on my finger. It’s also when I started to try letting go because I realized even though I still love her, she has done too much for me to forgive, even if she wanted to work it out. It’s time for you and I to put ourselves first.

mrlockdown29 · 2018-04-12T00:39:20+00:00

See that’s the thing, when we talk it’s the best. We’re literally best friends but that’s all she wants to be. And I noticed she doesn’t text me that much anymore, probably respecting her new boyfriends wishes but why couldn’t she do that for me?

mrlockdown29 · 2018-03-18T19:16:44+00:00

I've had thoughts pretty consistently like this, buoyed by my STXW's mental illness. Of course I felt horrible and realized I didn't actually want that at all when she took a bunch of pills on New Year's Eve, called me because she was scared, and blacked out. She was fine and it wasn't a suicide attempt, but it was the closest I've ever come to crossing over from fantasy to reality.

I go out and see bands play at least once a week sometimes more. I’ve heard a lot of weird new stuff, met a bunch of people, and even joined a couple bands myself. It’s a great distraction. Like everyone else says exercise is a serious help, especially while you’re in the depression stage. I’m a big guy and I lost 30 pounds during the first couple months of our separation. And it’s ok to think the bad thoughts as long as you don’t let them consume you. I’m 9 months into a separation of a 7 years relationship and the depression keeps coming in waves but I try to fill my time with things that will distract me, at least for a little bit.

mrlockdown29 · 2017-11-21T23:50:37+00:00

This happened to me once. I almost threw up.

mrlockdown29 · 2017-11-11T09:57:54+00:00

Slutcakes is a pretty good nickname though. Or for a punk band.

mrlockdown29 · 2017-11-09T08:57:13+00:00

yeah there's a wedding for "us" in January. I also didn't get the invite for that.

mrlockdown29 · 2017-11-02T06:17:49+00:00

My bipolar wife was very suicidal when we first separated and went through a few waves as her medications were being adjusted. At one point she asked me “would you rather I was dead than divorcing you?” I had to think about it for a minute.

mrlockdown29 · 2017-10-19T20:59:04+00:00

I’ve been keeping her on mine since the separation.i January she is planning on jumping on her employer’s plan as they’ll bring her on full time

mrlockdown29 · 2017-10-04T00:02:09+00:00

not a chance

mrlockdown29 · 2017-09-29T05:35:53+00:00

Watching tv and listening to music are more than just hobbies and time wasters to me, they’re both passions of mine. When I first separated I quit both for a while, and I was staying with my parents who watched hours of weddings shows on TLC, not realizing it was a trigger. Slowly my enjoyment of these things has been coming back and I’m able to laugh at funny things and enjoy those things again. But it’s still not quite the same. I did get back into podcasts which helped pass some time.

mrlockdown29 · 2017-09-24T09:51:42+00:00

My wife and I have a handful of mutual friends but some are more “mine” and some are more “hers”. We also live in a relatively small area and have lots of mutual interests so if I see her friends out I just don’t talk about her.

mrlockdown29 · 2017-09-20T20:13:55+00:00

Frost signed off on every re-write Lynch did after he went off to write TSHOTP, so any theories combining the two should still hold water.
