I was once married.

I think I only attract a certain type of guy, the kind that doesn't think about marriage or life-long commitment. Probably because I'm a doormat-type of person. But my current boyfriend might be different. I guess I'll see. Time is the ultimate test.

Dog sitting a dog thatโ€™s afraid of everything :(

Besides being super friendly and nice, giving the dog it's own space to investigate its environment might help. Let the dog just walk around on its own or stay in the crate on its own. If you're doing something else the dog might feel more comfortable to check things out.

Has anyone ever "gaslighted" you?

Also, when my ex would do this ^, he would try to manipulate my emotions. Whenever I was visibly getting very depressed, he would try to guilt trip me into thinking that I had every right to be happy, which would make me feel even worse about being sad.

In my defense, I use to be really, really stupid.

Sort of. I once dated someone who was manipulating me psychologically, not elements in my real life. For example, he would do something that would make me terribly unhappy, like cheat on me, and then attack me about it and turn the whole thing around so that I thought it was my fault, not his, and that he was the victim. That went on for like almost two years. Worst two years of my life.

Grad Scheme Vs real job

Maybe you should look at the 'Grad Scheme' in the same light as a "real job." So you feel confident about getting both. I believe in you!!

A good relationship makes you feel good about yourself.

A bad relationship makes you doubt yourself and feel bad.

I have seen women stay in relationships that were bad because they were "reluctant to change."

These women were miserable.

I kind of read this like some sort of new-age, relationship haiku. Ha-ha.

But I totally agree with you and have seen the same thing myself over and over with friends and coworkers.

You have such nice cops, or incredible luck, BA1... 50% of the time I'd been requested for credentials during bus rides just for sporting a beard. And one time whilst walking the remainder of the way to work, they just stop next to the pavement, half blocking incoming traffic, and start interrogating me. Out of 3 visits to the central station, in 2 I'm detained and tried by MPs for bristles beneath the ears (and you're always guilty in military trials...). Always had a sneaking suspicion I'd end up in jail indefinitely some day for no reason, somehow has yet to come to that.

Aw, don't be sad, becca. Have a cookie. ๐Ÿช :)

I'd like to hear some of those tinder tales, miss vampy... the internet's a mad world.

Lol I'm all good! But I will always take a free cookie! ๐Ÿ’—

Wow ProfVampy, that last story about breaking your boyfriends...parts sounds super awkward! If that happened to me, I'd die!

We, in no way, condone violence upon another.

With the possible exception of those that kill or molest children.
