I’m so sorry❤️ it’s so hard when they get so sick out of the blue when they were doing okay just a couple of days before. I know it hurts bad but your feelings are natural in this situation. Just know that you made the right decision for your cat, he’s not suffering anymore. It’s the kindest thing you could’ve done for him. Please know that he knows how loved he was and take care of yourself for his sake ❤️ it will get better with time. Try to be around people who understand your pain, that could help a little bit.
I’m so sorry❤️ I lost my dog so suddenly and she was so young as well, so I know how terrible it feels. One minute they are playing around and then they are so sick and beyond saving. It’s hard to see them like that.
I’m so sorry. I lost my 4 year old girl to IMHA last Saturday too. It was so sudden and she was so young. I feel the same about the deafening silence and emptiness. I hope we can both get through this and get better.
Sorry for your loss. There's nothing like losing a best friend. All i can say is that Lady was blessed with having such a lovely human as yourself. We are always hard on ourselves, but you did everything you could. You are a good man.
my parents sent me pictures of me when I was skinny, to help me remember how good I looked, so that I'd want to look like that again. This they started to do after I told them to stop commenting on my body weight.. They also commented on my daughter's weight when i sent them pictures of her. It made me FLIP. I am taking the time to share my WORLD and my HEART with you, my kids, and you tell me not to overfeed her?? Fuck them. Sorry to hijack your post.
I get these so much… when they just can’t be bothered to even want to show interest in you as a person, or the things you like or work on. My parents to this day don’t even know what I’m working with, my hobbies are stupid and a waste of time to them. I graduated university during covid with no ceremony for any of my two degrees, and when years later I wanted to have a little get together dinner to celebrate my master’s degree and getting a job, I wanted to make some fun games and quizzes about the area of my study or other interests of mine. They stood up and left after the dinner because they found the idea stupid and embarrassing. They couldn’t even celebrate a freaking unofficial graduation dinner with me.
How exhausting listening to all their negative, envious bs. So sorry you have to go through this. I just told my mother if she couldn't say anything nice don't say anything at all. Arguments abounded, but that's my boundary on certain interactions with her. I don't want to be drained by the negativity. She can wallow on her own, thank you.
Thank you ❤️ Itried that, but in her head, somehow it doesn’t compute that what she’s saying is not nice. She always says shit ”out of love” or ”out of concern” and I should listen to her because she just ”wants the best for me” and she ”knows better”.
I feel you. I just recently realized how much of a difference my upbringing has made, Idk how I didn’t see that before but there’s just these things when you’re used to abuse that you think are normal, and then you come out to the world and realize that not everyone’s life is like that? It’s like that realization is just setting in for me and I feel just fundamentally different from other people. For example I just saw a tweet saying that ”I would choose my mum to be my mum in my next life too” and all the replies agreeing and saying that ”so would everyone, unless they are insane”, well, that’s me. I’m insane then. That is a statement that so many people think is just universally true, that they would always want their mum to be their mum, and it hits hard to realize how much I don’t agree. And what’s behind it, and all the consequences of it and how I am and how my life is because of all that.
If you are insane for not agreeing with choosing your mom to be your mom in your next life, then I am right there with you. I know quite a few of us. I can also get upset by the idea of others having positive relationships with their moms. I do try to remind myself that the relationship I have with my mother was not created by me. Children are hostages in a way. Some of us get parents who protect us and love us, some do not. We do not pick them but we are expected to love and trust them no matter what. It is up to the adults to foster a good relationship with their children. If you do that when kids are young, they will continue to help maintain that good relationship because it is important. All my parents ever showed me is how much of a bother I was, so now I don't bother with them. Normal to me is an impossible ideal society has decided exists, but the idea of what normal is always changes so we can never reach it. All that to say, you are not alone.
I agree, my mother always questions why I don’t do anything to better our relationship, because ”it takes two”. No, in this case, it does not take two. She had 18 years but failed to build a loving and trusting relationship with me, instead I got physical and emotional abuse, belittling of my feelings and disrespecting my autonomy and privacy as a person. And she’s surprised at how I don’t turn to her with problems and lie about my life. I recently got a diagnosis of a chronic, progressive disease that is potentially disfiguring and will require treatment my whole life, and my first thought was that I don’t need her to weigh in on this because that will make me feel even shittier about it. She built that kind of relationship from when I was a kid. Even if I wanted to make it better as an adult, I cannot. I did not get the foundations for it from my childhood. Do I feel like a monster because of this? Yep, sometimes. But if I’m a monster, she made me like that.
I'm in Scotland too. It has always been for single people to send something to someone they fancy and the person has to guess who it's from. Perhaps capitalism has milked it more recently but as someone in an 11 year relationship, we do not do anything or buy anything for it is traditionally for single people. What is your age? Maybe it's different for me because I am older. Would be interesting to read the history behind it.
that is an aspect of Valentine’s day that was only emphasised until middle school… most people older than that usually associate Valentine’s day with new or already established couples. And I base this on having lived in several different European countries.
This might be a unique take but I had an ex who was practically Satan himself. He took all my self respect from me, my ability to trust men, and to ever feel comfortable in close relationships again in my life. Now I don’t believe that anyone is going to stick around for long and do stuff for me because they genuinely love me.
It’s so funny and wholesome but I wouldn’t say it’s happy throughout, definitely has some heartbreaking moments too, idk if OP is looking for that. But yeah, I just finished it yesterday and I’m not over it
Linguist here (although I am a hearing person and I know much less about sign language than I would want to - I still want to learn a sign language) and sign language is super fascinating!! Sign languages have different language families and dialects and accents, with different syntax/grammar just like spoken languages. It’s so interesting and often very much overlooked in linguistics sadly. I had a professor at uni who has been teaching linguistics for 35+ years and I had to explain to her that sign language is not universal all over the world. She was shocked, and that shows how neglected sign language is even among linguists. The fact that this show sheds light on the deaf community and CODAs made me so happy ❤️
Yep, no shade towards the actor but he has the perfect face for asshole characters and plays into it really well. I’ve seen him play insufferable and evil people in multiple dramas
Idk I think the dual identity comes across just fine. He does some very violent shit and he’s quite calm and collected and calculated and VERY self aware (eg when he says that as a police officer, violence for any reason is still violence and he’s in the wrong) and for me his handsomeness just adds to the effect. Like he has the face of an angel and he ruthlessly beats people to a pulp. I’m getting the psycho vibes but also the glimpses of empathy he undoubtedly has (with the children last week, and the halmeoni). He’s very unstable and has psychotic features but he’s in conflict with himself even

I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my dog a week ago and I know how horrible these first days are. Wishing you so much strength🤍
This is such a beautiful tribute 💜 Sending you lots of peace and love
Thank you❤️

I'm sorry for your loss, I loss my doggo to this horid disease last thursday too. 😢
I’m so sorry. Hugs to you❤️
Mine said I caused her cancer because I was stressing her out as a teenager when I didn’t answer my phone immediately
I think it’s cute!! Besides, if you’re going to get a name tattooed, your own is still the best idea. Hopefully you won’t break up with yourself lol

The worst of evil was the most violent I’ve seen

I think what people miss a lot of times is that no sex is rarely the problem in a relationship.
I wonder? Did you just decide to start shaving one day and lie to her about epilating?
yep and then just had pointless fights with her when she realized I was shaving, it’s literally so stupid
How does she try now that you’re 24? Or is it those snide comments like “I never did that”
it’s comments reminding me that that’s going to make me look like an ape
Omg thank you so much for posting your link here! It's been so redeeming to read so far and I'm excited for the next chapter :)
oh I almost forgot I linked it here 😅 but I’m happy you found it and read it! Thank you and I will be sure to continue updating chapters

”I feel what the characters are feeling”
Twinkling Watermelon got me out of the slump!!
Twinkling Watermelon is a happy drama with depth and a great cast of characters.
It’s so funny and wholesome but I wouldn’t say it’s happy throughout, definitely has some heartbreaking moments too, idk if OP is looking for that. But yeah, I just finished it yesterday and I’m not over it
