Of course, it's a two-way street. These days I've felt the relationship has already ended, despite her efforts to comfort me and reassuring she loves me, just that she is not ready. Yes, she has been accepted to a program at the same UK university. She just no longer seems so eager to start a...

Thank you very much TropicalStarfish, this was actually pretty helpful. Right now we're still in our LatAm country. Initially, the idea of me coming with her to the UK sparked her eyes and we were quite excited for what was coming. I was actually the nervous one. Months later, now I'm the one...

Hello everyone, It's been a while since I've posted anything useful in here. I want to know whether you believe relationships can survive long, overseas distance. If so, how? My particular involves the following: My girlfriend for over 4 years wanted to study a master's degree in the USA. I...

This is an excellent thread, thanks for sharing! I've fantasized about a spectacular suicide since being young. More of a fantasy than a plan, truly. My reasons are the pain I would cause to my parents (I've thought maybe of doing it once they've passed, but by then, what's the point in doing...

Cats all the way. Efficient and majestic creatures very easy to look after. Great and bold companions for loneliness (they, too, embrace a certain solitude) and great material for memes. My cat Benito has my best friend for 7 years this summer. He has lived through everything by my side.

Meetings.

I'm so sorry to hear this, friend. I have felt a punching bag all my life too, and the emptiness you talk about may be overwhelming. Sometimes I think that the only thing stopping me from leaving this place is my cat and breaking my mom's heart, and it scares me and gives me chills to this day...

Maybe not on performance, but definitely on attitude and work ethic. Being a couple is being a team. Doesn't matter if you're the man or the lady in the relationship, you have to do your equal part for the team.

The hardest truth I had to swallow was accepting the fact that I'm a terrible person. A bad lawyer, a bad son, a bad partner, a bad friend, etc. No one can count on me, and I know I always let people down.

For me, some musts are kindness, supporting your goals and life plan, being intelligent enough to discuss relevant topics, news, books, movies and any other shared interests, a good sense of humor and be able to express love for me (just as @ardour). I'm kind of needy, so I tend to take...

More time.

8:30 a.m. Today is a national holiday in Mexico, so I want to make the most out of it, run some errands, and maybe go for some drinks in the evening.

Not at all! Thank you for your inquiring. Yes, she does know, as well as my family. It’s weird because independently of their support, battling these issues is a lonely endeavor at the end of the day. I believe loneliness is a symptom of anxiety and depression. These issues are only mine, and...

In my experience, you fall in love with women who you feel comfortable with. True love comes from a mutual understanding of each other's existence, including common interests, goals, fears, traumas, as well as tolerating, accepting and liking those differences. The other is just plain infatuation.

Hello everyone, I'm a 27 year old male lawyer from Mexico. I've been struggling with anxiety and depression for some time now. I hope I can get to find some answers in here and help you in whichever way I can.

I get what you mean. I have battled with depression and loneliness for quite some time now. I feel deeply alone even when in the company of family, friends or my girlfriend. It's as if I'm not able to appreciate all the love and affection coming from them. Even though people do their best at...
