@Tim what happened? who died? I’m sorry for your loss. Thinking of you! I’ll let you off the hook for the hypocritical comment 😛 . You are such a kind person despite your own burden you came to help! Take care and don’t worry about us, grieve in peace, unless that helps you.

@Shelbyville I really have loved Tim’s insight which made me discuss more with my bestie. Usually we avoid talking about our jobs but it’s been a good change, coaxed me to look inwards. I have always offered good advice just never followed it. Your own emotions can be so blinding in personal situations!

Can I say I’m impressed you were so receptive that shows determination to improve. I think you need more people to cast a different light on your situations and that may help recognise and then change your behaviour.

I read your thread and saw familiarity and also picked up on a few things. If you are open to discussing them honestly and frankly it may give you a fresh perspective.

I’m on the journey of self love and will be happy to share tips.

This new guy how long have you been dating exactly? If after a short space of time he is behaving like this why are you putting up with it? (I know why!) Please do not tell me it is because you have had sex. Does this not send red flags for the future? I would not invest more time in it, this person is going to exacerbate your insecurities from the lack of communication and immaturity alone.

Obviously it’s your choice. You should do what you feel is right. Let me know how tomorrow pans out. I would advise to avoid sex as a solution tomorrow, it can blind you! A grown up conversation is much needed. Don’t be fearful to let go yourself.

Please don’t let this new undefined relationship/fling undo the progress and work. You can choose to not let it upset you. I’ll be thinking of you x
