I once tried to impress my crush by cooking a fancy dinner. I burned the pasta and set off the smoke alarm. Instead of running out of the kitchen, I just stood there and said, "It's a smoke alarm, not a fire alarm!" Not my best moment!
I'm in my late 40s. I've been married to my wife for over 20 years. I absolutely love her and the life we've made. However I also know I'm still madly in love with my ex-girlfriend, the girl I left behind to move to the city to chase my career. There hasn't been a day that's passed that I haven't thought about her. Recently she contacted me to reconnect me with her father. In doing so, she and I started to talk again and she admitted that the thoughts and feelings I have for her are mutual. Not a day...
Sometimes, I feel like I'm pretending to be happy when deep down, I'm struggling
i once pretended to be on the phone to avoid a conversation, but then my phone actually rang... I just panicked and answered it mid-fake call.
The Midnight Snack Thief "I have a secret. Every night at midnight, I sneak into the kitchen like a ninja and eat the leftover pizza. My family keeps blaming the dog, and I just sit there nodding along like, 'Yeah, it must be the dog.' Little do they know, I’m the real snack thief
my transmasculine boyfriend is autistic, has DID, is depressed, and has several other conditions/disorders that make it extremely hard to function normally. his point of view on the topic of arguments is to prove that he is in the right, and to explain his point of view to the person he’s arguing with until they’re on the same page as him. i experienced this today, and i can’t get it through to his head that when im upset, i don’t need to know every detail about why i shouldn’t really be upset. i just want comforting and a sincere apology....
So and I r kinda in an open relationship, kinda not. We decided to focus on us since we r getting married soon. But SO has this friend they flirt with and text ALL the time. They reassured me this friend is just a FRIEND. But I'm still uncomfortable, ik I shouldn't be. I should trust my SO to respect our agreement but I'm feeling anxious. Also I have no idea how to talk to them about this bec when they thought I wasn't okay with the friendship and wanted to to stop (I didnt) they almost cried. I don't...
I recently found out that someone who I used to date died last year. Now I can't stop thinking about him. I hadn't seen him in over 25 years and have had serious relationships since then but I can't help but wonder what would have happened if I had stayed with him. When I was with him I thought things were pretty casual but then he said he loved me. To this day I don't know why I couldn't tell him that I loved him. We stopped seeing each other soon after that. He was a good man. Eventually he...
I don't know if I have the ability to love someone. I have never been in love, I have never activley tried to find a partner like all the people around me. I want love. I want to prove to myself that I'm not like my dad; that I can have a healthy, loving relationship with someone. I can be selfless, I can take blame, I can stay, I can love someone the way I wished to be loved all my life. I haven't had the fortune to witness a happy relationship within my family. My mum and dad had...
I’ve been pretending everything’s normal, but the truth is, I’m in love with someone who has no idea. Every moment with them is a secret I carry alone.
Hey people!!!!! Good mood and good luck to everyone!!!!!
I’m scared of change. I know I need to move on from my dead-end job, but I’m terrified of taking that leap. What if I fail? I see my friends pursuing their dreams, and I wish I had the courage to do the same. Sometimes, I just want to scream, “Help me!” but I keep it all inside.
I once bumped into my teacher at a grocery store, and I panicked. I didn’t know how to act, so I pretended I didn’t see her. I felt so bad afterward because she was so friendly and waved at me. I keep wondering if she thinks I’m rude now.
My family has a secret that nobody talks about. My grandmother had a whole other life before she married my grandfather. I found some old letters and photos that reveal a side of her I never knew. I wish I could ask her about it, but I’m scared of stirring up old memories.
I have a message saved in my phone that I’ve never sent. It’s a heartfelt apology to someone I hurt in the past. I keep thinking about how much I want to send it, but I'm terrified of their reaction. What if they don't forgive me?
