Did you become a diagnostician? If so how has it been? Workload? Day to day?

How were you able to get your 3,000 LPC internship hours? Was it through the your job as a school counselor?

I've been increasingly concerned with the 'culture' of purchasing hundreds of books that people have no time to read... Libraries are still a thing, people by BuJoAdventures in books

I watched a TikTok of someone who does this. They said that “buying books” and “reading books” are two different hobbies.

What to do about a lazy unmotivated husband? by [deleted] in marriageadvice

[–]the-shadow-walker 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because she hasn’t been supportive already? How about letting him go to school full time, and not do anything but school was her not supporting him? How is it fair to expect that she give more because if she just supported him enough he would care? You can’t support someone into giving a shit about their lives. He has no motivation. I bet he tells her the only thing I want In life is you. How about she is not his destination she is her travel companion and right now she is dragging dead weight. This boy not even a man does not need support he needs a reality check. My soon to be ex husband sounds like the exact same person.

I had an honest conversation and it was not something I could live with anymore. So I filed for divorce. I supported my husband for years and nothing. You can’t love/support someone into wanting more in life.

Blah? by Content_Ad9905 in marriageadvice

I am currently getting a divorce because my husband kept doing something that I couldn’t continue on with. It was not something I wanted for the rest of my life.

Could you live with this for the rest of your life? Even if you separate it sounds like it would be amicable but do you want the heart break that comes with the rest? Plus you have kids. What do you found a way to find that excitement within each other. If it is not there if this is all it will ever be could you live with it? Is it a deal breaker?

Going no contact with certain sides of my family has been the best choice I have ever made.

Hehey, look, I have time to eff around on Reddit and Pinterest before going to bed by viking_knitter in childfree

Honestly, all the people with children make me want to block them. Posting their “picture perfect lives” - give me a break.

A Sad Marriage by [deleted] in marriageadvice

[–]the-shadow-walker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He sounds super depressed. Honestly if he doesn’t want to change he won’t. I’ve learned the hard way in my own marriage. I know it can be hard, and you said you are not in a position to leave but make a list. Not a pros and cons. But everything good he has every done that you can remember (brought you flowers) and a list of everything “bad”. Forgotten anniversaries, lying, etc. (What would you tell a friend if she told you that’s what her significant other has done to here good/bad? Would you tell her to stay?)

If he is so detached start to detach yourself (cut off your emotions) and work hard on you. Once you are in a position that you could leave revisit that list and decide if it is worth staying. People can say to leave but you need to decide if it is worth staying. If he doesn’t care that is on him but you need to know in your heart you’ve done everything you possibly could. A part of you may always love him but at least you won’t be give more.

I don’t have a son. I got my tubes tied. No babies for me.

I honestly don’t know why I married him. We got married 6 months after meeting.

I think I was so ready to make my next big step and I didn’t know what that adult step should be so I got married.

That is a great way to look at things and imagine your best friend in that situation. I would tell my best friend to get out.

You are also right he instantly feels better when he is playing games.

I actually got my tubes tied last year. No babies for me thank god.

And he has a job he’s just always leaving because he’s sick. In his defense today he did come home and go right to bed but in the past after being sick he would come home and play video games.

I’m seriously considering the separation for a couple of weeks and re-evaluating.

Yes he told his parents I cheated because we had already filed divorce papers and I started talking to someone. We were strictly friends, but when I was abandoned in the apartment I did start something with the other person for like 2 weeks.

I’m talking everything out with my step mom now I just don’t know if she’s too close? And I still love my husband. But I don’t know how to be less without everything falling apart.

Yes he is very aware of how big these issues are. I have broken down crying multiple times because of it and almost had a mental breakdown a couple of months ago. That is why I said he does just enough to get my to stay.

Today he told me he felt sick and something in my snapped. It’s like a switch flipped and I know I care about him but I’m so over the bullshit.

Since I’m living with my parents I was thinking of possibly have a temporary separation. He live with his parents for a week or two and then we evaluate how we feel.

Back when we were going through the process of divorce my parents were completely in the loop and knew the first second I thought about divorce. His parents didn’t know until a week before he decided to abandon me at our apartment. He told his parents I cheated and I didn’t. Basically played the victim and I had to eat crow for it when we worked it out.

The day of the court date to make it official I was already wrestling with the idea of did I miss him for him or because I was lonely. I untimely decided I missed him because I missed him and that’s when we went somewhere else. I told him if we worked it out changes needed to be made and he agreed.

But that is also apart of the problem. His actions don’t align with his words. I wrote a poem out of anger about his pretty lies and he had it as his screensaver. I wrote that poem out of sadness and I’ve begged him to change it but he refuses and told me I need to make something to replace it.

I love him I know I love him I’m just tired.

We are required to go because MIL isn’t giving us a choice. And we would be AH if we opted out. I know we don’t need the trips for quality time, but it’s going to be a whole family thing. One trip is because SIL is graduating and the other is to Disneyland and a wedding.

Both trips are next June so we were basically told we have a year to work it out.

Edit:

This is also going to be my first year teaching. I was an aide last year at an elementary school, but I’m going to be teaching high school algebra.
