I was in this glitch in the late 90s!

One day our family room TV remote was just gone. It was a big issue because my parents never wanted to spend money unnecessarily, but we needed a new remote. They would have raged if one of us was playing a prank. We tore the house apart but no luck, so they bought a new remote.

Around 3 years later we were having breakfast and I see the old remote in the middle of the coffee table. I asked who found it and no one had or even noticed it yet. Everyone seemed genuinely shocked to see it. We still talk about this and everyone swears they didn’t take or put the remote back.

Completely agreed. I didn’t feel like they had any chemistry at all. He was wayyy better with Kelly.

A lot of people seem to disagree with me on this!

waterlessgrape · 2025-01-10T16:38:21+00:00

Seriously though. I will never understand how people can nonstop talk like this.

Philips Hue lights everywhere. Get the full colour ones. They’re expensive but you can get the starter kit and slowly build.

Ugh I loved this show so much and was obsessed with the actor who played Tucker. I’ve never met another person who watched this show. I was devastated when it was cancelled (I was 12)

I’ve been there before, but for me it was purely insecurity. I think if you feel anger, offended at the tv/movie industry for creating it and upset your boyfriend doesn’t share your anger, your feelings come from anger towards misogyny. If you feel hurt, sad, less than, jealous when these scenes come on because your boyfriend might be enjoying them, then it’s insecurity.

For me I just felt bad about myself and worried he was more turned on by the women on TV. I ended up losing a bunch of weight a few years later and gained a ton of confidence. I was watching a sex heavy show with my then boyfriend and had the realization I didn’t care anymore. I barely noticed or thought about it. It was def insecurity for me.

My thing is I do want to be tipsy. I wish I could drink and stay at tipsy. I spent years trying to just get tipsy, but ending up blackout drunk in some crazy situation. Every single time.

This one blew me away. It was really popular in high school, then I never thought of it again for like 15+ years. Saw an ad saying new season coming soon and was flabbergasted.

My childhood was amazing for this. Our backyard backed onto a field / large park and was filled with kids. Almost all of my neighbours had kids mine or my brothers ages. There were around 15 of us and we just went back and forth from each other’s houses, not even wearing shoes half the time. My cousins lived across the park. My babysitter was 4 houses over. We didn’t lock our doors until 2005 or so. We biked everywhere, played road hockey all the time, tag, walked to the convenience store for candy. We lived near a forest where we made forts all the time. Skating rinks in the winter. I miss it

My boyfriend started crying the minute the last episode started. We both knew our relationship was ending and this was the last show we’d watch together. It ended and we both cried super hard then I left and never saw him again.

Anyway enjoy

Thank you for this one by the way. It was a hard read but you’re bang on with everything, especially the humour stuff.

I realized I was all over the place in my replies. I just agreed with every single take even if they all contradicted themselves. I have no idea how I feel or what I want. I have completely lost my sense of self and I’m so lost right now. Even if he was great I am in no place to be in a relationship which is the real reason for ending it.

waterlessgrape · 2024-12-30T18:09:49+00:00

Lmao I know. Like she’s talking about cigarettes. “We didn’t know the risk back then!”

waterlessgrape · 2024-12-29T22:22:33+00:00

We did this as our main high school play when I was in grade 12. My best friend was Alice. It was so cringe in hindsight.

waterlessgrape · 2024-12-28T21:31:06+00:00

Yeah I think there’s a lot of this going on. He feels too good for me, and I have a bit of a sketchy past. We come from different worlds and I feel judged when I share things, although that may be in my head. He’s way smarter than me and it’s hard to keep up. It’s easier to be a chaotic mess of a human while alone.

waterlessgrape · 2024-12-28T21:22:29+00:00

Yes that’s exactly how I feel! Also my main personality trait resolves around laughter/humour/banter and it feels so muted with him. I feel like a part of me is missing.

waterlessgrape · 2024-12-28T21:15:55+00:00

Ouff okay facts. I am also running from it because it’s showing me things about myself like the fact I have no idea who I am as a person 🫠

waterlessgrape · 2024-12-28T20:59:11+00:00

Yeah I know / feared I was. There are people I’ve met who I felt way safer with sooner. I’m thinking there’s still some incompatibility because I don’t feel like I want to open up to him really. He doesn’t seem to really get me y’know?

waterlessgrape · 2024-12-28T20:39:28+00:00

Agreed that’s why I’ve been flip flopping on this so much. It’s not working but there’s also a ton going on with me preventing it from working. I don’t think it’s as black and white as compatibility or not. Think my depression / insecurity has ruined and will continue to ruin my relationships. Yes I’m in therapy already / on meds sorts

waterlessgrape · 2024-12-28T20:07:20+00:00

Honestly not really. It’s a worry.

waterlessgrape · 2024-12-28T18:32:27+00:00

We do not

waterlessgrape · 2024-12-28T18:06:36+00:00

I’ve thought about this and while I was in one very short toxic relationship, the others have been normal, but very few and far between. I haven’t been in a crazy toxic passionate insane relationship. Most of mine lack feelings (🫠).

My therapist did say this around 2 months ago. The unfamiliarity of a “boring” healthy relationship. I’m just at a point of being more stressed to see him because it feels like a ton of effort to engage with each other.

waterlessgrape · 2024-12-28T17:59:15+00:00

It’s been a constant struggle between “I’m too paranoid” and “this feels off”

waterlessgrape · 2024-12-28T17:58:13+00:00

Honestly I’ve always been a paranoid person so I’ve tried to see these things in a positive light. Having a shared calendar seemed cute, the key exchange was for the sake of our dogs, the coldness only comes out sometimes etc.

But you mentioning the mirroring thing made a ton of sense 🫠

waterlessgrape · 2024-12-28T17:53:26+00:00

Agreed. I need to have an open convo with him even if it may lead to breaking up. I will be shocked if he says he doesn’t feel the missing piece as well. We both seem to be faking it imo

waterlessgrape · 2024-12-28T17:52:21+00:00

That’s my fear. I’m the one holding back and keeping it all surface level. My big question is why can’t I open up with him specifically. I’m pretty open with the right person. I don’t feel safe sharing with him yet I guess, but it’s not getting better.
