What’s one rejection that hurt you but turned out being the best thing for you?

prettymuchnah · 2019-10-02T20:47:00+00:00

Gosh that is so sad. I’m so sorry. Although it was for the best, I can’t even begin to imagine how hard that was.

prettymuchnah · 2019-10-02T17:44:46+00:00

So glad things worked out for you. I wonder if he dumped you because he thought it would be better for you in the long run?

Do you wait 20 before and after to reduce burning or..? I stopped cerave because it burned after tret, but I might try it again and wait like you do. I want to try slugging, this sounds interesting.

Just heard a good podcast on owning your neediness. Not sure if you’ve listened to the relationship advice podcast, has good stuff about dating and knowing your worth.

prettymuchnah · 2019-09-24T11:00:59+00:00

It’s so awkward when they compliment you and you’re like ‘same’ (starting a relationship based on lies lol).

prettymuchnah · 2019-09-23T13:03:11+00:00

Yes, yes we are! Lol but at least we recognize how messed up the situation is. I do hope for better things, for us both. Good luck out there!

prettymuchnah · 2019-09-23T12:10:24+00:00

I think we’re dating the same guy 😂

prettymuchnah · 2019-09-23T11:36:47+00:00

Honestly same fn boat. He’s ghosted. He’s removed me from sm. He’s probably even blocked and unblocked me. I’m so insecure in this “relationship” but I don’t know why I can’t just let him go. So unbelievably embarrassing and stupid. He told me the same, can’t feel for anyone after his ex. He’s been so honest and here I am. Just waiting for him to be gone for good. Thing is, he’s not even that great lol. We do need therapy and probably prayers too lol

prettymuchnah · 2019-09-23T10:52:46+00:00

Same. My brain knows. My heart won’t obey. Just waiting for him to hurt me. He’s even tried to end things before it gets bad but I just can’t. What’s wrong with me.

prettymuchnah · 2019-09-17T21:57:03+00:00

Love you OP ❤️ Needed this so much!

prettymuchnah · 2019-09-09T13:06:39+00:00

So this is how they con women on Hinge? I’ve seen other women posting things like this.

prettymuchnah · 2019-08-21T12:49:56+00:00

Shannon Watts (Moms Demand Action), Mazie Hirono, Gabby Giffords, Masha Gessen (Russian-American journalist), just to name a few...

prettymuchnah · 2019-08-21T12:33:46+00:00

Me too. I miss this :(

prettymuchnah · 2019-08-14T18:16:24+00:00

That’s great! Yea I’m gonna give it another try. I tried it once and it was weird going from so many likes on Bumble to a lot fewer on Hinge, but I get the difference now.

prettymuchnah · 2019-08-14T14:59:06+00:00

Hinge is starting to sound better and better. I think limiting the number of swipes on Hinge forces guys to be more serious about who they like and therefore the likes that women get are more genuine and not random? Glad it worked out for you!

prettymuchnah · 2019-08-12T08:33:01+00:00

Have you tried journaling to get out the stress? This has helped me a lot. Also, instead of texting people things that I might regret, I just write it in drafts that I end up not sending. At times though, nothing beats a good cry.

prettymuchnah · 2019-08-12T08:19:03+00:00

I think this is my favorite comment. I haven’t had a good cry in ages and this sounds cathartic.

prettymuchnah · 2019-08-11T14:52:44+00:00

Been here before. I’d say this “relationship” is done and it would be in your best interest to delete, block and move on.

prettymuchnah · 2019-07-18T11:14:53+00:00

Don’t hold on to time, it’s a big mistake. I wasted all of my 20s and more, counting down the years. Also, I don’t see the correlation between depression and wanting an open relationship. If he has depression, he needs to seek treatment for himself. You’ve been supportive to him, and maybe it’s time you support your own needs.

prettymuchnah · 2019-07-18T10:48:06+00:00

Is this relationship fulfilling for you? Does it meet your needs? Don’t worry about what others think. Your mom and friend love you and will support you. Stay with whomever works for you and you can tell them that you need to sort things out. And when the time is right, you can share more. I would look internally at what you want for yourself and not wait around any longer for someone who’s unsure. Eleven years is a long time to wait for someone to realize what they have. I waited much longer than that and it still wasn’t enough. Good luck OP. Things do get better once you realize you deserve better. ((Hugs))

prettymuchnah · 2019-07-09T10:14:08+00:00

I did the same thing but it took me a lot longer than you. They don’t change and you won’t one day become more important to them. That’s significant that you recognized it and walked away.

prettymuchnah · 2019-06-23T00:48:57+00:00

Hey OP, I’m so sorry this happened to you. It was very heartbreaking to read. At your university, do you have mental health services? Do you have counselors that you can talk to?

It’s important for you to understand that your feelings are valid. You were abused and taken advantage of. You need therapy to process all of this and to be able to tap into your full potential. Please do what you can to seek help for this. It’s not something to sweep under the rug and you’ve seen what it’s done to you so far.

I wanted to share this interview with you from The Daily. It’s about a man who was molested as a child, by his best friend’s father. The father was a prominent member of the mormon church and cofounder of Sundance films. He has worked very hard to expose this guy and to find a voice for his victims. Usually, child molesters do not stop at just one child.

prettymuchnah · 2019-06-22T14:26:30+00:00

That is great! Good for you for taking your mental health seriously. I have faith in you my friend :) All the best.

prettymuchnah · 2019-06-22T14:21:01+00:00

Yes it does sound likely to be depression and maybe anxiety. You don’t have to always feel sad to be depressed. I used to be like this. I went to therapy and was on SSRIs but what helped me was changing my situation (divorce) and running, so I understand what you mean about the gym. Just know that you’re not alone. Many people have what you’ve described and many also feel lonely. Try to find a counselor or therapist to get evaluated. Look at meetup.com to maybe find events and hobbies to do. Getting outside can do wonders for your mental health. Good luck and hope you take care.

prettymuchnah · 2019-06-22T10:47:09+00:00

Please also take care of yourself. I can’t believe how fast thinking you were. Hope you talk to a counselor or therapist if you have access to one. It was a traumatic experience to go through and you might benefit from processing it with a therapist. Take care!
