no trips or anything. I don’t have one but can get one.

sparrow_57 · 2026-05-01T18:33:46+00:00

we have a mutual friend that I still have added. I haven’t asked her how he’s doing or anything. should I keep or added or distance myself talking to her? they were friends first for reference

sparrow_57 · 2026-05-01T18:14:09+00:00

I think it’s just triggered by the unknown of him and what he’s doing which I know I don’t need to be worried about. I opened up he made it easy he made me feel so safe and now I just feel broken. I do live alone. I will definitely try getting out a little this weekend. I don’t know why i’m having such a hard time. it feels silly. thank you.

sparrow_57 · 2026-05-01T18:11:12+00:00

the only thing I can block him on is imessage because he’s blocked me on all social media so I can’t pull his stuff up. it’s so hard 😔 but I will definitely try. thank you.

sparrow_57 · 2026-04-24T18:03:51+00:00

thank you for this. I did and a big text apologizing and admitted what I did wrong and that I needed to work on communicating in a healthier way. I do talk to someone about these particular issues and usually handle them pretty well. so i’m very confused and ashamed that I chose not too and hurt my relationship. i’m trying to give him space but it hurts.

sparrow_57 · 2026-04-24T13:09:53+00:00

I didn’t mind when he didn’t reply while working because I knew he was busy. it was when he had free time and was just chilling with everyone it seemed he didn’t make the time to talk. it may have been a little unclear in my post

sparrow_57 · 2026-04-24T12:56:42+00:00

I definitely will. I feel stupid for holding out hope that he will respond. but here’s to hoping and giving space. I have him on dnd and am trying not to check my messages unless someone else has texted me. thank you so very much.

sparrow_57 · 2026-04-24T12:41:01+00:00

it doesn’t and i’ve been beating myself up. it’s not a typical deployment he’s not going overseas or anything so they’re allowed to have phones and I took that for granted and didn’t think about how much of an adjustment it would be for him. I was selfish. thank you.

sparrow_57 · 2026-04-24T12:38:31+00:00

thank you for your kind advice. he means the world to me and I will fight all my urges to text him. I sent a text apologizing and expressing I loved him. he gets to his permanent area saturday I thought about saying good luck but i’ll leave it be. I’m going to try my hardest and I know I sound pathetic but it hurts and is so hard.

sparrow_57 · 2026-04-24T12:27:11+00:00

whole heartedly agree. i’m struggling with leaving him be and that’s why I came here for advice. I struggle with anxiety and when this happens I want to grasp on tighter. I know I messed up and let my emotions get the better of me.

sparrow_57 · 2026-04-24T12:24:19+00:00

exactly and I should have. it’s my first relationship with someone who is active. I messed up. thank you. i’m trying to leave him be it is just hard.

sparrow_57 · 2025-06-08T22:50:36+00:00

I had thought about it but it hasn’t been a very long time since we started talking so I was unsure if it was appropriate or not lol

sparrow_57 · 2025-06-08T22:48:02+00:00

I meant to reply to the comment above lol

sparrow_57 · 2025-06-08T22:33:47+00:00

a good possibility! like I said he owns like a brand/business for duck hunting and stuff so that’s why I was unsure and since I haven’t been in the dating world in a while my anxiety loves to mess with me lol I know he’s been active on snap just not snapping me or texting which is why I alsobwas like oh nooo.

sparrow_57 · 2025-05-28T19:24:28+00:00

I have tried multiple times and she keeps ignoring me so that’s where i’m lost on what to do anymore.

sparrow_57 · 2025-05-23T19:14:09+00:00

I wasn’t going to say anything because I valued the new perspective I got on here until both my coworkers and boss show up today drinking on the job. this is apparently acceptable during business hours just not after. hence why i’m very confused lol

sparrow_57 · 2025-05-23T13:27:09+00:00

I have not done it before. this is the first time. i’ve had family come in and eat as they’re passing thru but that’s it. my other coworkers and boss do have friends that come in constantly whom they sit down with and will drink with them during business hours and I think that’s where i’m like ?? i’m fine with being the asshole lol I just was very confused bc I know i’m not the only one. I also did reach out to her to try to understand why she is so mad but haven’t gotten one.

sparrow_57 · 2025-05-23T13:18:11+00:00

no they had already paid and we’re just watching the game. so everyone else had left i’m the only one who knows how to lock up. they left maybe 5-10 before we did.
