We’ve always been (or at least I thought) very close. I got him his first job which helped him a lot. This year he went to live far away but we saw each other ocasionally when he came to visit. He started dating his now wife about a year ago, I told him I wanted to meet her but then never did. He told me she was very jealous so, yeah that could be it.
We have a lot of friends in common, he knows a lot of my friends and viceversa. @MissDre I was thinking the same thing, maybe we aren’t as close as I thought… But then why call me first to tell me his engagement news?
Anyways, I will congratulate him and move on in my life with one less friend.I don’t think so because he said “on the weekend of the 24th” but not an specific date, and he didn’t say where he was getting married.
It’s just so weird. He called me when he got engaged, told me “you’re the first person I’m telling this to” I was pretty happy for him. I knew it was this weekend, he told me, but never really invited me. I figured it was going to be really small, like city hall or something. But yesterday I saw all the pics on Facebook and it looked pretty big.
Now I don’t know what to do, I don’t know if I should congratulate him or not. I’m pretty bummed. He is like one of my best friends.
And I find it really silly to be bummed by this. But I also have had it with my friends and the crap they have been pulling all this year.Congratulations @thehizzy!
I hope everyone is having a great weekend.
I found out yesterday, through Facebook, that one of my closest friends (we text on a daily basis, have coffee occasionally, have been friends for 15 years) got married and didn’t invite me. I don’t know why. I’ve never understood why people get so upset about not being invited to weddings but this sucked.I recently found out this guy had another kid with his wife after his affair and then had another kid with another woman, who was an acquaintance of mine. And his wife has stayed married to him the whole time.
I learned some lessons at 22. Dating a guy who told me he was divorced. Then I found out he was still married (someone told me) but he told me he was separated and divorce just hadn’t been official yet. Then I found out he was still living with his wife but he told me he was leaving soon. He never did. And I stayed a couple more months believing everything he said until his wife found out about us. Since then I ALWAYS look people up to see if they’re married, single, divorced, have children, whatever.
My exboyfriend once threw up in my car. He got it cleaned and never drank after that. We had been together for a year. But peeing in your bed, when you have been dating recently, I mean, just no.
She says she cried the whole time she was cleaning up her mattress. Like wtf.I wonder if our fear of being alone is making us ignore the giant red flags waving across our faces. I think that’s happening in your sister’s case @LadyE.
I’m not dating either, so I have no stories but I have seen some recently. One friend was just telling me that she met a guy, has been dating him but she knows he is troubled. One time he showed up at her place totally wasted, spent the night and ended up peeing all over her bed. And she dumped him but now they are back together. This friend of mine is traumatized by alcohol, since her father was an alcoholic. She is seeing a counselor and one of her lines is always “my dad never stopped drinking for me”. So why date an alcoholic? It’s like a giant red flag that she is ignoring. It’s too difficult for a person to change, why do we think people will change for us?
Another friend of mine is dating a bisexual man. He is gay and only dates gay guys. But he started dating this man, is totally paranoid about being cheated on by him, not only with a man but with a woman. This man actually told him that he is no good, that he is bad for him, don’t date me, but they keep dating. What the hell is wrong with people? Then comes all the suffering and pain, for something that could have been totally avoidable.That would be a no for me too @nickel. Actively hiding and lying made this all so ridiculous. He sounds like a child who can’t own his decisions. And lying since the beginning? No no.
@Copa I’ve always looked for nutritionists with some kind of specialization or background in sports. The current one I’m seeing has a degree in nutrition for olympic sports. I’m not an olympian athlete but I know she is used to people that NEED to eat to perform, instead of eating to lose weight. She has a lot of clients that do competitive martial arts.
I usually first follow them on Instagram so I can get a sense of what they do, how they treat their clients. That way I can see if their views match mine.
