Interesting phrasing. I always say "if it's not one thing, it's another". Your way would suggest that there is only one other thing, and that you may be aware of it. And if you're away of it, then why didn't you take precautions lol. The way I phrase it, I'm oblivious to anything going wrong. I'm not sure that concludes which one of us has got it all wrong hahahaIf it's not one thing, it's the other
Interesting phrasing. Why does one have to "got it all wrong" and the other all right? Is your life that black-and-white and straight-forward? ;-)
lol, and that coming from someone proclaiming they've lost their sense of humour ;-)
It's hilarious how, at a certain age, "what movie am I going to watch tonight?" turns into "what movie sounds good to fall asleep to tonight?".

Imagine having romantic partner so (s)he complains about you having gaming room. XD
Gaming room > romantic partner.

My fiance has a gaming room in the basement. I am grateful that he keeps his stuff down there.
I can get on board with "exhausting"

I am thinking I need to sort my life out. As a mature student coming to the end of a degree apprenticeship, 3 children, a failed marriage and a failing relationship I am now realising that I have no handle on anything.
I have an over reliance on alcohol to make me happy and to help people like me. I vape continuously. My lungs are shot to pieces from a bilateral pulmonary embolism, and I do very little excercise.
I am deeply miserable and seem to need affirmation to feel good about myself. However, I have come to a point in my current relationship where I feel extremely lonely.
After multiple false promises this year and cancellations I can say that it is coming to an end unless a miracle happens. Heck, it's Christmas so maybe....
He made me feel like I should propose to him at the beginning of the year, so I did... and now he's saying we aren't fiancé's until we move in together. So I asked him if we should cancel the engagement and he told me to "shut the fk up"....
I feel I do so much for so many people and right now everyone just leeches what they can from me without returning anything.
I need to be better. For myself. How can I expect to find decent friends, or save my relationship, or find a new one if I cannot set my own boundaries. It is no wonder people take what they can.
Yeah, not a happy place right now. And I have a headache.
Sorry for the vent. And thank you for the opportunity to. I feel much better now.
Don't apologise for venting. It's cathartic to some degree and this is the best place to do so because so many of us here totally understand what you are going through. Realisation is a great first step. Now you can start address each thing that is your obstacle. Don't be too hard on yourself. You are only human
If you can, begin by removing yourself from the people that are only bringing negativity to your life. Not always easy, I know, but give it a try. If possible, get some help from a mental health professional to give you some coping mechanisms. Having said all that, vent as much as you want to us. Sometimes some of us have things of value to share.

Thank you so much. I've read a few threads so far and so far most of them have valuable and interesting shares. Stepping away has always been a problem for me as I am tuned to need people and be needed. Now it is definitely time to think about myself for sure.Don't apologise for venting.

At the risk of sounding like I have no life, I take great pride in reading posts before they are changed to "nm". That's right...I see them!
