That’s mind boggling to me. Unless I’m not reading this correctly, he shot him 8 times in the back? The...back? How on earth could they have justified that???

I did too, I did too... :/ It really is a damn catchy song.

You should check out the show. None of the guys on it are very stereotypical, at least in my opinion.

Actually a little embarrassed to admit this, but for some reason I decided it was synonymous with a “hate fuck.” Like...boarding a person...taking a ride...while pissy with ‘em? I really, really missed the mark there :/

I do too. He seemed like a kind soul. Thank you for passing that info. on!

Oh man, I haven’t thought of Pete in forever! I hope he landed somewhere nice. Anytime I interacted with him he seemed like a pretty happy guy, and it was always pleasant.

Ah, gotcha. I agree, it's pretty surprising we haven't hit the levels seen elsewhere right now. I have no doubt it's just around the corner though.

This is going to sound sarcastic, and I genuinely don't mean it to be, but did I say 8 out of 10 weren't? I commented quite a bit yesterday, so genuinely don't remember. I work in an area where there is an extreme amount of meth use, and very easy access to it. I would actually feel confident in saying close to 8 of…

I work in a substance abuse treatment center. Been there a while and feel pretty comfortable in my job and abilities. When someone comes in with recent opiate use, though? Terrifies me. It's SO easy to OD on.

My last relationship was long distance for a good chunk of time, so there was a lot of sexting/phone sex. For some reason the idea of phone sex MORTIFIES me now. I remember enjoying it, and got a kick out of the whole thing, but now I look back and am like “I said whaaaaaat??!!” Kind of strange! Hopefully I'll move…

Uuuhhhhhhh...

This makes me very happy!!

I'm so glad it wasn't just me!! :) 99 Luft balloons is a wonderful song :)

Was that meant to be read to the tune of this song???

“Beygency” is amazing...

It's amazing how not following the rules, and doing things prior to a deadline, means you're disenfranchised.

Haha, very true! :)

I'm happy to hear you were able to recover, and hope that will be the case for your childhood stuff as well. I know how challenging it is to work through that.

I’m very sorry to hear about your experience. It always kind of stuns me how similar the result of this kind of relationship is. She was horribly emotionally and mentally abusive. Very insidious and calculating. Sometimes verbally abusive, and rarely physically. It was a really world altering combo. I feel the same…

My friends have been so supportive and helpful. I'm so grateful for that. I absolutely empathize with the feeling of being triggered/PTSD. I'm about a year and a half out, and am feeling better. I think I have a ways to go though. Thank you for your response. I do feel stronger too, and hope to continue that as I get…
