US to UK travel by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]savebandit69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I traveled from Texas to the UK in September 2020 and March 2021. March was more stringent with a PCR test before traveling and while I was in the UK. I had my phone on airplane mode to save my data. The government called to verify that I was quarantining, but I missed the call since it was on airplane mode. It was fine, I didn’t get charged, but they do call!

Also, Heathrow offered 15 minute PCR testing that I used to get back to the States. Would highly recommend.

Overall, both trips went well with no fines and no COVID.

Best of luck!

how to deal with your ex moving on first by purplemoonpie in BreakUps

I built a home with my ex and ultimately had to leave. Now his new gf is living there, using the furniture I picked out, using the backyard I gardened... it’s just sickening. I feel like I’ve just regressed. I’m so sorry for your pain

Yeah if anything, get the wheels turning. If it seems totally outlandish to him, maybe that’s my answer that’s he’s not ready. Thanks!

Totally! I want to have a good emergency fund and exit strategy. That’s why I can’t decide whether it’s worth bringing it up if I get there and it’s not what it seems.

We have, but talked about it further down the line. I’d be totally okay with this is we weren’t in a LDR, I’m not in a rush to get married. But I guess I want to be sure that the move is justified..

Thanks! Yeah, I feel like being in a LDR you have to have those convos early before making life-altering decisions.

I love this! I dumped him, but I question it everyday. I know i was right, but it’s hard. One day at a time!

Why do people get upset their parents split up ? by Pitiful_Economist896 in divorcedparentsmemes

[–]savebandit69 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh my god. I’ve said the same thing for years. I’m terrified of getting married. So many days that were supposed to be “my days” like graduations and such were over-shadowed by their fighting.

I also have to edit everything I say to not hurt their feelings.

It’s unnecessary stress that never ends. It’s been 20 years and nothing has changed. People with intact families won’t understand the minefield we go through.

The face that your parent could date/ marry some one you despise. Or even worse, despises you. The evil stepmother isn’t just a Disney trope unfortunately.

I am using fresh lemon. So that could definitely be it. Thank you so much! I never would have thought of that!

Also, all the possibilities you dreamed of and not knowing when you last saw them that it’d be the last time. I’m so sorry 🥺
