Yes and it kind of sucks haha. It's good and bad. It's helpful to friends because it's easy to be there for them, but it's hard on me. I take everything too seriously and it takes it's toll. I just try and tell myself it's not about me, if it's someone fighting about something. I try and...

From my experience you haven't wrecked everything. I've done a lot worse and my guy still talks to me. Just give him a bit of time and space and if he wants to be with you he will be back.

I don't think it's weird you want to share. I think it's healthier than keeping it bottled up and will help the healing process. I don't have any suggestions for bringing it up, sorry, but good luck with everything!

I suppose it would depend on the type and severity of the trauma, but I would think a specialist would be best.

So I'm supposed to see him tonight for dinner and a movie at his place. Cross your fingers he doesn't bail again. I haven't seen him in 4 months and I'm pretty excited for tonight and am just really hoping I don't get a call or email before I head over there.

You weren't cruel, you took care of her and she you. If you hadn't taken her to the vet she would have been in a lot of pain and suffered. Now she will remember the times she had with you.

I would give him some space for a while and then give a quick hello and see where things go. If its meant to be it will be. I've made enough stupid mistakes that have pushed my guy away, but he keeps coming back so hopefully he's kind of into me haha. I wish you guys luck.

I'm a little like him. I don't want kids of my own and I don't really like most kids, but I do get excited around babies and smile at kids being cute. It's different when you don't have to take them home haha.

I wouldn't worry about him not saying I love you yet, especially if he is good to you and talks about you with others. He might just not be ready to say it, even though he might feel it. About the kids/marriage thing. From my experience, not wanting kids, I agree he might just never want...

If you google how to make friends as an adult there are a lot of websites. If you have hobbies you could try and find a class and then there will be people with similar interests and that would make conversation a bit easier.

I wish I had advice to help, but I know what you're feeling. I'm the exact same way. Even when my friends try and help me I turn the conversation around so I can help them with whatever they need. I just think being ignored for so long by so many people has made it so I don't feel imortant.

Riddikulus! The maggots turn into dancing spaghetti doing the tango. Hmm...I don't know if you can turn one into something so ill do 2. I get really uncomfortable when strangers get too close to me or touch me and spiders haha.

@AJJ pretty much. For me at least. So far the longest we've gone without talking is a little over 2 weeks, but we haven't gotten together in 3 months. Hopefully our plans for next week will not fall through.

Me too, especially if I don't hear from him in days.

Not well haha. I try and keep busy to keep my mind off of it, but it's hard when all you want to do is be there for them or see them. There's a lot of good advice here that's helped me get a better idea as to why they do the things they do.

Congrats! Keep it up : )

Oh no! Haha. There are a lot of people who have the same car as me and I've almost went into theirs, but my key didn't work. Glad it's not just me haha.

Not sure where to put this, but it seems appropriate for everyone here. If you are reading this, you have survived your entire life up until this point. You have survived traumas, heartbreak, devestation, the different phases of life...

I was in a similar boat about feeling like a mother to my ex-husband. I would suggest some space for a bit. She may still actually love you, but be super stressed out about things and feel like she doesn't. I know we got a divorce and I regret it. I still love him, but was so overwhelmed...

I don't have any advice, but I'm in a similar boat as you. Thanks to the others for their perspective. It makes a ton of sense.

I usually use lists too. Feels good to cross things off and keeps track of everything. I just hate it because I feel guilty doing nothing sometimes. I work weird hours so I usually don't have time to do things on days i work. I get up, get ready for work and leave quick and by the time I get...

So I took a snow day today since I didn't want to drive an hour to work to sit and do nothing. A lot of people took the day off and decided to post on Facebook all they accomplished today from completely cleaning their house to cooking a great dinner and everything in between. It kind of made...

If you aren't in therapy now you could try using the crayons and paper at home with no one around. Maybe then you wouldn't feel self conscious and could just try it out and see how it feels.

I pretty much always get the dizzy side effect when starting or stopping meds. Usually it will only last a couple weeks and then stop. I would probably talk to your doc. Perhaps it's too high a dose too fast if you are just starting. Unfortunately I don't really have much advice for you...

Mine says I'm about 2 towns away. Interesting.
