Ah, ok. Haha. I briefly read his wiki page and didn’t see any immediate family connection which is what I assumed, then went back to read about the Jacobite succession... I really just blew over that because that was so...17th century? But apparently is a thing!

yes, a good high school friend of mine who has “made it” in the Big Apple (at least but midwestern suburban standards) flies first class and only private when he flies with his partner, who as a former ceo of some kind of bank, can afford to always fly that way... if you follow my friend on ig (and he has a solid…

Why not Joseph and Charlotte together? It’ll only be a twenty year difference and one less degree of separation ;)

Thanks everyone who gave me advice on clingy friends! I know that I’m introvert but I still make an effort to be social because I do like to get out.

Has anyone tried this product? I get adds through FB and IG occasionally, and it looks nice but I’m hesitant to buy make up I cant try first on the internet.

Thank you for this!!! It has been very insightful! I always feel that I have very good boundaries where romantic relationships are concerned (I’m relationship avoidant really...) but obviously I accept ‘bad behavior’ at some point with lady friends. I actually have about three other friendships that have ended this…

Yes! Thinking about having to spend five days with this woman, even in a large group, stresses me out just thinking about it. 

Yes, I was able to keep her on a once a month adventure for many years but bc she moved closer and became part of my social group, it’s gotten hard to avoid her bc previously i had kept her at a distance.

The other friend that kept inviting herself on my vacations was a narcisist who wouldn’t have cared if I was…

Oh yes! Jane also has several stories about how she “really gave it to someone who dared to hold the door open for her when she was on crutches that one time.” She isn’t even playfully rude. 

I agree with all you’ve said. The confusing thing is that mostly none of these now ex-friends were like that when we first became friends - it always creeps up.

What do you do with a clingy friend, who has a been a good friend but lately behavoir has taking a turn for the worst? And, what might it be about my personality that I attract friends like that?

YES

So, I had the most aggressively politic thing at my office happen to me this week. And I feel that I handled it pretty well. 

Uhm…. scandalize Seattle ? no. We already have The Erotic Bakery, so you’ll have competition.

Now that I recall, my last pair of Paul Greene’s (hand made in Austria and size 41.5 fits me like a glove every time) were disappointing because the heels were made of plastic and I could not get repaired like I used too. But again, those boots lasted daily hard wearing for three years so... that’s what you pay for. I…

It was a week. A week of high highs and medium highs and just a lot going on.

If there is a Nordstroms available near you, start looking there. They have a items in a range of prices.

I’ll light a candle for you. And excited for your upcoming change in situation!

He’s really quite spry!
