Right up there with, “I’m too nice.”
I’m so stealing aggressively single! I’m catching up after being away at my friends’ wedding this weekend. I’m 29, haven’t been in a relationship in seven years, do some of the online dating thing but there just hasn’t been a guy that has really made me feel that spark in a while. My life has also been a huge…
Haha, I love your first paragraph ( and the second one is true, too!).
Shout out to everyone dealing with chronic pain while staring down into the abyss of winter. Wishing you an ample weed supply. Say it with me: Fuck this shit.
This is hilarious and does not have nearly enough stars. Reminds me of my depression era Grandfather and his penchant for buying prunes and tomato paste in bulk.
LOL sounds like a passage from the 2017 Pulitzer Prize winner.
1) I love depression era-meemaws. Yours sounds like she has a lot of stories to share.
“I ate Cheerios the day the Challenger exploded and I ate Cheerios the day the Berlin Wall fell.”
That’s just too much fucking upkeep!
Someone should call in a welfare check on Sara.
bc she’s actually in love with Karlie Kloss
I broke up with my best childhood friend and it sucked but it was necessary. She kept asking me to validate her terrible life decisions (she married an alcoholic asshole who she abused). I told her I couldnt, but I would be there if I needed her. We tried to make it work, but when her now husband said I should be…
It’s been about 2 months since I last talked to my best friend of 22 years. Honestly, in those 22 years we’ve gone through a few periods of not talking, the longest stretch being about a year and a half. We got in a fight during her last visit, and then she said some insensitive things about me losing a job and we…
I don’t have any specific advice, but I highly recommend checking out captainawkward.com and her archive. She has great advice on ending friendships (giving an African violet) and dealing with friends with mental illness. Good luck!
I had a friend that I cut out of my life. We had been really close in college but she was one of those get a man/dump your friends type. The last straw was that with the most recent man she changed. Became mean and secluded herself from her friends. I didn’t say anything and then she created all this drama and “chose”…
I had to do this last year. It was incredibly difficult, mostly because the other person did not want to have a conversation about what was happening. I totally agree with ILikeThunderstorms - talking about it with her directly may help, but it may not. Totally depends.
I had one that I sort of tried to let die because she was annoying and judgy and while I failed and it still exists it is more like a facebook friendship now, with the 1-2x per year meet up when we’re both at our parents’ for xmas, and that now works for me. Depending on the friendship, you may want to just phase it…
