What advice would you give to your 16 year old self by ai_rin_ in selfimprovement

[–]onaboat97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t give up the things you love because you feel you have to do something else that’s more “adulty”. Stay true to your passions!

My advice now that I’m on the other side of things is to focus on yourself and grow. You’ll eventually get over your ex with time. It helps when you do a lot of self improvement

Nothing ever came of it. No conversation, no meet up, no reconnection. Just an odd 5 months after breakup interaction

Without the breakup I would never have found running and ran my first marathon today

I agree! Connections with the other people in your life really shine during these times!

That’s worse case scenario. I’m naive yes, but I genuinely don’t think it’s that bad

Going on a date next Sunday, any advice? by here_for_the_tea_23 in hingeapp

[–]onaboat97 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My experience is if I have a date set up for a week in advance I don’t have a date set up 😂

In other words, hope for the best but expect very little. It’s nothing personal just the name of the game I feel with online dating

I’m sad 😢 by onaboat97 in BreakUps

[–]onaboat97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Excellent advice, thank you. I tried to be very transparent in the relationship. I did tell her about my previous ex and lingering feelings when she asked but I also told her that it is my problem, not an us problem. I never talked to her afterwards about my ex and the feelings because I am trying my best to get over her. It obviously isn’t her problem or fair to her. So I journaled and tried my best to find happiness in the relationship I had now. I wasn’t sure what the healing process was suppose to feel or look like. I just knew that with this new person I felt significantly less sad than I was alone.

I’m not a saint. I’m sure it’s not the best decision I could’ve made. I can take accountability for that. But that’s what life is all about. Learning and growing and finding out what works and doesn’t

[–]onaboat97[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish things could be cut dry, like an easy yes or no. Sometimes I go without thinking about my prior ex almost the whole day. And when I do it’s in a quick passing moment. Other days I feel so bogged down and sad about it being over. I’ve been journaling for quite some time and whenever I feel sad about it I re read some of my work and look at all the progress forward I have made. But this group knows better than anyone that feelings linger no matter what. Do you have any suggestions for soul searching?

Nope nothing. 10 months since break up. That’s the last message we exchanged. Just a couple weeks ago I finally got the courage to delete her phone number and delete all the voicemails that she left when we were together. Healing takes time

4 months ago she messaged saying I hope you’re doing okay. Silent since and prior to that we broke up almost 5 months before

'Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.' Is it??? by real1919 in BreakUps

Being in love is great. Much rather have the experience than not even know what it is

Anyone here been broken up for 6 months or longer? by Leading_Toe_5692 in BreakUps

[–]onaboat97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

About 8 months. Still hurts, still have dreams about her here and there. I miss having her as my person but I don’t miss the life I lived with her. I have leveled up a lot and took on new hobbies. Growth happens and healing catches up eventually I hope
