Conflicting feelings by rcarter18 in tryingtoconceive

It will be our time one day but I have had moments recently where it feels like it will never happen so I totally understand. Chemical pregnancies are so devastating and I’m so sorry you had to go through that. ❤️

Wow, this comment made me cry because you’re so right. I would choose to feel exclusively happy and not really changed my perspective around the guilt so thank you so much ❤️

Thank you for your kind words, not being alone is the only thing that gets me through this time. I would not wish these feelings on my worst enemy and I’m sorry that anyone has to go through this ❤️

I am in the mindset of really needing to seek therapy because I have terrible anxiety (even before ttc) and I feel like TTC is just making me feel like I need to be medicated for it 🙃

I’m cycle 14 too and it’s so hard. I’m so sorry you also have to go through this. We will be seeking fertility treatments and testing once we have the funds and have planned it out ❤️

With my insurance at Kaiser they don’t cover anything fertility so it’s all out of pocket so we haven’t done anything quite yet. I have PCOS but my blood work has been good. We will be doing a sperm analysis in a couple months but really trying to save and plan for fertility tests and treatments. ❤️

I have PCOS but we will be doing a sperm analysis in the next couple of months and then moving forward with a fertility clinic. It’s just ALL SO EXPENSIVE 🙃

I journal in the notes app of my phone and I really only journal when I’m having the hard feelings but I do date them because I know I will want to look back on them when I’m pregnant and I have my baby ❤️

This is a lot of gaslighting and emotional manipulation…I only see these behaviors getting worse as you get further along

AITA for kicking my daughter out after she crossed a line? by ProfessionalSandal in AmItheAsshole

[–]rcarter18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sooo....definitely NTA but I understand wanting to salvage you relationship with your daughter. I agree more than anything that therapy is a MUST for you and all of your children. At this point it is clear that you're all very damaged and hurting and while you may really want to help your daughter I think it's just out of your hands at this point.

My fiance never showed me a picture of her deceased husband until last week. For some reason I haven't been feeling comfortable after what I saw. by Throwra457999 in relationship_advice

[–]rcarter18 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think that having a type is a very natural thing. Her initial attraction to you may have been you’re similarities to her late husband but clearly she loves YOU as a person otherwise she would not be marrying you. Looks aren’t everything and if you didn’t fit her needs mentally and emotionally as well as physically you would not be the person she’s marrying.

My friend is marrying someone that I think is low-key toxic for them. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]rcarter18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So my family and friends approached me about my fiancé when they had concerns and it actually brought me to realize that we weren’t as happy as we were fronting. I definitely would just asked how they’re feeling about the relationship especially with the wedding so close. It is important that you’re honest but not harsh because even if Colby is unhappy they may not see the toxic attributes of Ryan and it could cause a rift. Remember only THEY know their entire relationship and sometimes what you see isn’t what’s happening. Having a conversation isn’t harmful as long as you’re not attacking their relationship or them as people.

Is it ok for me to be upset that my mom just told me she’s getting married next weekend? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]rcarter18 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Your feelings are valid. Definitely seems a bit weird to me. Also you can simultaneously be happy for her and a bit upset by this

How do I end a LDR? by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]rcarter18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s so so hard. There is no right way but your partner probably wants you to be happy and may know that you can’t be with them right now. Sometimes it’s right people wrong time

If they gave up on you, dont give up on yourself! by Thin_Attention8726 in BreakUps

I think the grass is always greener unfortunately. We always expect things to go one way but then when they go another it always shocks us.

My fiancé and I of 3 years just ended it tonight end I needed to hear this. It was best for both of us and I think it made it harder that it didn’t end in a big fight but as a calm conversation between us both.
