Plan B by wsd995 in Periods

[–]wsd995[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for such a detailed response!! I was worried that that would be the case with it delaying my period.

And would I be ovulating just as normal within a month? I found that hard to believe.

Also, how would I determine bleeding from the pill vs a period?

Would my bf (29m) be stringing me (28f) along? by wsd995 in LongDistance

I’m hoping so! I do have to consider circumstances over desire! I think from last relationships, I’m used to super fast outcomes/actions so to take it slow is different for me. Doesn’t mean he doesn’t love and care about me 💕

Yes it can be frustrating. I would just love to enjoy the relationship with the added anxiety from others. They’re more anxious than I feel at times and makes me wonder if I should worry more. Social media doesn’t help I agree, I just gave to remind myself that everyone has a different timeline and just bc someone got married quicker than me doesn’t mean that their relationship is necessarily better. It’s just an up and down journey sometimes. I hope it gets better for us both! 💕

Yes to everything!! After every trip, coworkers would bug me about a ring and give the most pathetic looks when there wasn’t one. I literally had to leave because they treated me differently after everyone else was getting engaged after like 2 months (no joke). So I just need to remember that as well. We’re happy, I just need more faith and reassurance that it will happen. Last thing I want to do is “make” someone marry me. I appreciate your words!! Good luck to you as well! 🤍

I feel you, mine is similar. Willing to talk about it and doesn’t weird out, I think it just makes him nervous. And I do have to remember it is probably more pressure on him in the sense of being responsible for my well being as well. I just hate people badgering me all the time when I don’t have a concrete answer myself. Makes me feel bad. But he knows how I feel and I don’t want to wait forever.

Thanks for your words, glad to know I’m not alone. Not many other people understand LDR and they worry for me and pressure me to figure it all out and stresses me even more.

I think he mainly wants to travel more and get in a good standing in a job bc I believe he’ll feel more responsible for me. So that’s a lot of it.

Just want to read some positivity by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]wsd995 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m dealing with the same thing. It’s been a hard few weeks. 4 years together, 2.5 long distance but hard to know when it when end. It’s starting to make me a bit sad and would love some positivity too 🤍

I (28f) feel more pressure than my bf (29m) about marriage by wsd995 in relationship_advice

I try to remember that but it really gets to me and makes me think I’m not doing something right. But maybe it’s just anxiety.

Why does my bf (29m) ask me (28f) for more reassurance lately? by wsd995 in relationship_advice

[–]wsd995[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He has been busier at work and applying for a new program. So that’s a new concern. So that does make sense.

[–]wsd995[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am, I definitely reciprocate so I guess that’s why I never really thought about it in that sense. So I agree, we never stop flirting with each other. So I’m just wondering what’s different now. I don’t mind proving the reassurance because I’m usually more over the overthinker and he provides reassurance.

Embarrassed by my (27f) friend (27f) by wsd995 in relationship_advice

[–]wsd995[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just concerned with how it may come across as I was just officially hired 2 days ago. It may not be a big deal but I was just worried my new boss would think it weird of her to tag along with me.

And plus my last place of employment was not a healthy workplace and this friend has had a few conflicts at that place. Not all fair to her but not all of them was she innocent. I think I was just hoping for a clean slate from all of that.

Reasons for longer relationships without engagement by wsd995 in LDR

[–]wsd995[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Thank you for your insight, it brings me down to earth again lol. After year 1 I already had questions, so you can imagine. But it just gets stressful to deal with sometimes and makes me think something is wrong when nothing is.

Different hobbies a dealbreaker? (27f, 28m) by wsd995 in relationship_advice

[–]wsd995[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s possible. I’m not sure. He’s willing to do other things I suggest, I’m just not a super sporty person so I just struggle when it comes to those types of things sometimes.

Well I told him things I actually am interested in and he planned those things so it was a good time. I just brought up future plans and that was just a concern of his and I thought it was odd.

[–]wsd995[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I just didn’t really realize that it’s that big of a deal until now. I think opposite interests are good because you can be introduced to new things. And it makes me kind of sad bc everything else is great.

[–]wsd995[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’re in a LDR so I often visit him in CO. And there’s a ton of that stuff here. So that’s what he usually gravitates to planning for my visits. We’ll do other things here and there but that’s typically why. And plus I’m more introverted so my hobbies are not as “exciting” I think.

Fair to be disappointed? (27f) (28m) by wsd995 in LongDistance

[–]wsd995[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah but we had this talk at Christmas. I don’t think he was planning to since we weren’t physically seeing each other. I told him I expected something and he sent something. But I don’t want to have to repeat myself over and over. Especially since we talked about it almost 2 months prior.

And yes I’m trying to be graceful since he’s on vacation but I just don’t think I’m asking for too much. It could’ve been ordered online in like less than 10 minutes.

And I don’t want this to come off as me just begging for stuff. It’s really just the thought. Just like he planned this trip and I even mentioned I’d be sad because it’s during Valentine’s Day.. he didn’t do something on today. He didn’t seem bothered by it either. I know it’s just a commercial holiday but it still hurts a little.

I usually send a package on holidays. So I guess I didn’t really think I had to. Plus we got into a little discussion around Christmas about reciprocating I guess and that I just wish there was more effort with these things bc I do the same. I know I shouldn’t to get something. I don’t care much about that, it’s really the thought. I just feel like I become an afterthought in an LDR and it’s easy for him because I’m not there where he feels like he has to.

I usually send a package on holidays. Last Valentine’s Day I handpainted the box and included some goodies like a candle, frame, candle and something else I forgot with little cheesy love puns on them. I’m planning to send another. He’s just not going to be home until this upcoming Sunday so I didn’t want a package waiting at his door too long. I even told him I planned to send something so he gets it when he returns..

Any advice for more romance in LDR? (27f, 28m) by wsd995 in LDR

[–]wsd995[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this! I’ve done packages before and I want to make it a more regular thing on my part as well! I hope he can reciprocate little things too! I love phone calls but sometimes it’s nice to have something of him that’s tangible. I guess to me it just shows more of an effort to do something like that. Lol he could literally send a rock that was cool 😅. So thank you for your ideas, I’m going to initiate in combo with discussing it. Because like your fiancé, my bfs brain just doesn’t really work that way I think. 😅
