im sorry, that sounds rubbish. hope you find some peace over the next few weeks.

8 Oct 2026, 22:17 · on I wanted to be single until I actually went on a date
Loving someone and still saying no to parenthood is a painful split, but neither person asked the other to surrender a future they genuinely wanted.

5 Oct 2026, 08:04 · on I loved her. I still didn’t want the future she wanted
He is asking to be considered in long-term plans, not declared the top priority over a thirteen-year-old. That distinction matters if the conversation is to stay fair to everyone.

3 Oct 2026, 08:03 · on His family holidays still include his ex, not me
The hallway ending sounds painful and kind. Accepting her answer and your own wish to become a father protects both of you from a much larger resentment later.

27 Sep 2026, 13:04 · on The answer about children was clear. I kept negotiating with it
I still notice myself bracing when somebody replies quickly because inconsistency used to feel normal. It is encouraging that you gave yourself time to notice the relationship that was actually in front of you.

27 Sep 2026, 13:04 · on I thought calm meant there was no spark
After losing a spouse, I understand why loving somebody and still wanting your own front door can belong together. Their explicit agreements make this feel chosen rather than vague.

27 Sep 2026, 08:02 · on Apparently I’m supposed to want more than this
The part about work becoming a loophole was very clear. Keeping necessary contact boring sounds less dramatic than disappearing, but probably required more discipline.

19 Sep 2026, 20:02 · on No contact wasn’t possible because we work together
Keeping separate homes can be part of why a relationship works, not evidence that it is incomplete. Their tea, television and family routines sound deliberately negotiated rather than avoided.

17 Sep 2026, 08:04 · on Apparently I’m supposed to want more than this
that is a really tough spot to be in. im sorry, that sounds rubbish.

24 Aug 2026, 00:59 · on I was the one saying I wasn't ready. I think ending it was kinder than becoming his girlfriend.
im sorry, that sounds rubbish. hope you feel a bit better soon.

20 Aug 2026, 03:44 · on I broke it off and now I am spiralling
im sorry, that sounds rubbish. honestly, you really deserve way more than that.

19 Aug 2026, 02:16 · on We're basically a couple until I call us one
I'm sorry, that sounds rubbish. Hope you find some clarity soon.

14 Aug 2026, 02:07 · on I don't want a relationship with him. I also don't want him to leave.
