  • Are you looking for advice? Cause that’s how it sounds lol. The answer and reasons are different for everyone.

    Ultimately the question is, how does the job make you feel? If I hate getting up everyday to go to work, I’m probably going to at least look at my options if not straight run out of there crying.

    If it’s ok but nothing too exciting. I don’t dread it but, I also don’t look forward to it, I might stay. But only if I can find a way to spice it up a bit. Maybe that’s a new podcast to listen to while working. Maybe it’s finding something to do in my down time, maybe it’s researching a new hobby or something.

    If I like the job but I’m not going anywhere but I’m that close to retirement, I’m going to probably stay. Until they give me a reason to hate it. Then, I’m out.


  • We were together 13 years. We both grew as people but not together. I did a lot of therapy and finding myself. He kept pushing everything down and refusing to experience his feelings. We were never bad to each other we just kinda… Became roommates over time. We basically stopped being intimate both physically and emotionally.

    One day we sat down, talked about where we’ve been, what we both want, what our ideal future is, and realized we were going in different directions. We decided to get divorced. We lived together for another year and a half after that because we own the house together.

    I moved out a few months ago. We still talk every day, share pictures of the animals that we each kept, we’re good friends. We just didn’t open up to each other the last few years. He’s done therapy and started some self exploration since we decided to divorce. He seems much happier. We’re both dating other people and we’re both genuinely happy for each other.

    May have lost a husband but, I definitely did not lose a friend. This was literally the best divorce you could ask for. I hope the best for him.
