I decided to mountain bike instead of ski today. There is so much snow in the mountains right now, last season I didn't have to make a choice since the snow was gone by now. Oh well, looks I'll be swapping between the two for a month or so until the snow runs out. I can only ski so much mashed potatoes.
I’m attending a lecture for fun, by myself. I’m a lil anxious (not sure why) but this is going to be fun and I know I’ll be glad I went. I just have to clam down enough to stay for it.
I haven’t shaved my arm pits in a while. It’s getting long. Like REALLY long. I had a dream that I got totally shunned because of it. Am I gonna shave today? Probably not.

Pain: legs 5, arm pits 7, bikini area 8 the first time and then it’s much easier the next times
time: takes longer than waxing but you dont have to make and wait for an appointment and can just do it at home as needed.
Cost: $45 for one but it’s rechargeable so once you buy it that’s all ya need.
Id 300% recommend for anyone with thick fast growing hair where shaving only lasts a day (like me)

AbiHOoh you in the medical field? Cause I feel that
Yeah I’m a CNA and I picked up a shift. We only have 8 and 12 hour shifts(very rare to get) though so it’s usually 8 or 16. And I don’t want to come in on my day off so 16 it is lol
I never saw my brother on a regular basis. So sometimes things feel normal. And I think about the next get together, and since he didn’t come to all of them, sometimes it feels truly normal. Not in a denial type of way, but I’m literally so used to him not being around or being around infrequently, that things aren’t all that different. But because of that, there is a part of me that feels like it’s still all the same, but it’s not. I almost have to remind myself he’s gone and I relive it every time. And after I come to this realization I feel guilty as shit that life goes on exactly as he left it. And that doesn’t seem fair to him. He was worth more than this.
His birthday is next week. We had Sunday dinners every week. We’d have a cake for him whether he was there or not. We don’t get a cake anymore and that really fucking sucks.
Just broke up with my on/off again boyfriend cuz he was using pills again. I wish more of you or any lived in Jersey so we should shred together. That’s what’s on my mind!
Skiing is definitely on my mind with all these movies coming up.
Also on my mind is moving. I'll be moving from an expensive 1br apt to a slightly less expensive studio in a little over a month.

A guy I hung out with from tinder many years ago is on the sex offender registry. I didn’t want to have sex with him, I said no multiple times. But then I just went with it. It didn’t bother me and I didn’t think much of it. But now seeing him on the sex offender registry has me super confused. Like should it bother me? But at the same time like I don’t want it to be an issue so maybe I should just stop overthinking it? Or am I underthinking it?

Man, I feel this pretty hard.
A guy who was cool when he was sober but very handsy and bad at taking no for an answer is now in jail for raping a friend of his in his sleep. I didn't think much of it at the time but now i'm sketched out and feel a bit sick thinking about what happened between us now. It's a really difficult thing to think about and work through and I haven't done it yet either but I hope you're okay. I also went through those stages of being like should this bother me? Maybe it shouldn't? And trying not to think about it and it made it worse.
I’ve also had this type of experience. What bugged me the most was watching people that I knew treat him the same way even though they knew what had happened. Like jfc men suck
B.AussieMan, I feel this pretty hard.

I think it’s all good? Idk. I feel like I am Patrick in the Patrick and man ray wallet meme. If someone told me the exact story but it happened to them I’d be like that’s fucked up but because it’s me I’m like ehhh it’s fine haha. It just doesn’t click. Maybe it never will. Maybe I should enjoy not being bothered by it until the day I am. Idk
Am I actually feeling trapped in my relationship or am I just overthinking/freakin about the future?
It's been so hard to figure out my feelings these last couple weeks. Our relationship has changed so much since we moved and a lot of it has been good for us, individually and together, but a lot of it also feels like red flags to me. How do you know? How do I know if this is what I want?

this is me right now. Vibes dude,I’m sure you’ll figure it out.
Last fall I left a relationship that was deteriorating before it got too miserable. This past spring/summer were tough because I finally had time to process all the feelings because during the winter I was too busy having fun skiing. I think I like being single better. I spent most of my life on my own and got used to it.
Skiing outta sort out that depression.
my season begins on Saturday. I hope I can pick up right where I left off.

I think you'll know when you know. Sounds cliche, but it's not supposed to be back-and-forth about wanting to be in the relationship. I just went through a break up last week. Sucks, dudes.

Thanks, friend. I think I'll know, too. I'm just out here feeling a little bit unloved and disrespected. I'm hoping that my reasons for staying start to outweigh my reasons to want to leave, but only time will tell.
I have cash in hand for this apartment. It’s right next to campus and by my side of campus as well. I hope i get it. My relationship is over, I’m just done. I needed housing and then I’ll tell him. I feel bad.
edit: I’ve known it for some time now. I tried to break up a month ago but it’s just not sitting right with me. Gd I hope I get this place.

Do what's right for you, dude. But I have to say... I broke up with my boyfriend today. I think he thought it was pretty sudden and now I feel extra crummy. I wish I had expressed how I was feeling earlier. Instead, he prompted our conversation and then I just kept rolling and ended up breaking up with him when really I just wanted to tell him how unloved I was feeling. Now...we're both in Mexico until March, living as roommates in a small-ass studio apartment. Maybe we will reconnect. Maybe we'll just be friends. Either way, take it from me and say what you need to say, get it all out, before you do anything rash. I don't regret the things I said, but I do regret not taking it step-by-step. Do your thing, girl.

Holy shit. I broke up with mine too.
I wrote this last night at the brewery where I met (!!!) a professor who does the hard science side of my humanities thesis & we're going to collaborate on a grant, sorry this response was so short lmao.
Don't feel too crummy, you had a discussion and while it snowballed maybe it's what needed to happen. You'll just have to take it day by day, I'm sure things will work out whatever way they go these next few months.

Well so far it's been only mildly awkward. I cut his mullet off for him last night (it was kind of like the end of an era), and he and I spent our morning stretching together. It's been a weird vibe, and inside I'm SO deeply sad, but I think we're handling it well.
Anyway, then I left lowkey abruptly this morning bc I was sad and went to yoga and the farmer's market and he went spearfishing.
Maybe being roommates won't be so bad...he is still my best friend and I know he'll help me/hug me/protect me whenever I need it.
I'm just worried that I won't be able to properly get over him when I need to if we're living like this. Whatever, I guess we'll see how it goes. I'm sorry you broke up with your mans, too. It's rough. Sometimes I think the person calling the break-up takes it harder than the other. Dope you met a rad professor though! Right on.
