Yeah, that's not fair at all. But you should watch for the signs too.
Wouldn't hurt to be able to be funny on your own. My husband made a promise to himself to make me laugh every day. Sometimes it involves memes, but mostly it will be something he says.
...I'm a disappointment in bed that you absolutely should have to experience tonight...🤔 🙅🏽 🤭
That's what nightlights are for and idc what anyone thinks. I need just enough light to know my eyes still work ok when I wake up to go pee 187 times a night, but not enough to keep me awake.
A good pillow over the nose and mouth will stop that! Don't act like you haven't thought about it!! 👩🏼🦰
I had an ex like that. Barely laughed at anything I said (and I'm funny dammit!) but she would laugh when watching something on TV. Was so surreal to hear her giggle.
If you are starting over, then you know the last situation was bad. Congrats!! It takes a huge amount of courage to start over. Give yourself a pat on the back, I for one, am proud of you.
My ex husband knew that marriage was important to me and that I wanted to be married only once. I've been single since our divorce finalized 6 years ago now, and he's on wife #4...
Oh honey, I got your back on this one. If you want something, get it. There's no going home. If he/she canna supply you with the basics, you have to move on. It will become a habit.
You deserve a badge or whatever is the thing now. SOOO many people go thru this.
This must be a guy. Sometimes I say "we need to talk ", and then it's "what do you want for breakfast? "
I'd actually prefer the honesty. Otherwise, I'm gonna assume you like it and make it again at some point.
My biggest fear is that I won't know what I've got till its gone. Regrets, etc.
Whelp, that's me out... I've never seen sponge Bob and I don't have tik tok.
my biggest fear actually happened: partner not telling me what's bugging them and breaking up over it
