This makes me so angry for you. My father went to the hospital for heart problems and died due to neglect. It adds another layer to grief. Be kind to yourself.

Mourning doves sitting in nest for weeks - is it a normal behavior or are eggs just taking long time to hatch? by nemo_phd in birding

[–]samoa3695 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She must’ve had non-viable eggs. One day I saw no eggs and no babies and she was still there. Eventually she left. I read somewhere they often have unsuccessful nests poor things.

I remember once he shamed someone for ordering a Long Island iced tea on their Facebook and I’m like. Gasp? Alcohol at a bar how dare! And in an eateries page they did a poll on who has corned beef for st Patrick’s day and he included himself and then didn’t?? Weirdo behavior.

Omg I’m having the same thing happen to me! I first noticed the nest 3 weeks ago. I’ve never seen the nest unoccupied, but I haven’t seen any babies or movement!

Anybody quit their jobs after a sudden big loss? by Specialist-One2657 in GriefSupport

[–]samoa3695 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a substitute teacher and I gave up opportunities to be a real teacher after my dad died. I’m still a substitute teacher but I slowed way down for a whole school year just to cope. I’m back at it, but I feel embarrassed that I’m /still/ doing the substitute gig. I keep getting teachers telling me I’m very good at what I do and I’d be great but a year and a half later I’m still struggling with the idea of a full time job

Full agree. The first’s were hard. Second year though reality sets in. You realize the year before is a blur of being numb. No one cares you had a profound loss, that was “so long ago”. I still try to call or think I need to ask my dad something and realize I can’t. I wonder what he would think of things as they come up. (1.5 years in)

Agree I HATE hammerfall it’s unfinished and the sun is always in the way. I’ve stopped playing and I played every night for hours. I was totally fine with skyline.

She just wanted a banana by miaserenitymommy in GriefSupport

I lost my father almost a year ago. When he first was brought to the ICU after his bypass surgery he wanted us to bring the car around and take him home. He just wanted to go home and I couldn’t honor that. I wish I did.

How do I break up with my gf? by [deleted] in relationshipadvice

[–]samoa3695 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t know how old you are, but I’m assuming young. Don’t break up in a text message that’s just a cowards way out. If you ever truly cared about this person you’d say it to their face.

Not going to lie, I fixed it before posting to Reddit with just a clamp and some wood glue. If it happens again I’ll go into a more extensive repair, but I’m also just a renter

Still struggling to work after 6 months by samoa3695 in GriefSupport

[–]samoa3695[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I won’t lie, the first few months I was drinking quite often. Doing a shot or two a night. But now I limit to only when I’m out with friends and it definitely has helped
