Nothing wrong with me

I second this. Dealing with this the way she did is of course not correct and being unhappy in a relationship should not justify cheating, but nevertheless…

The sound of children playing in the woods.

Hey, thanks for this answer. I am under the impression that there is a lot of negative talk about having kids in the News/internet etc, which made me very anxious about the decision to have my own. And while I think that it’s important to vent about the difficulties of parenting, I sometimes miss people who voice the positive things about it.

Easy, just bring back the 60 hour workweek or child labor.

A lot of these cases seme to be children and that’s shite. They did not decide against the vaccine, but their parents did, leaving them to suffer through measles and possible long term effects like immunosuppression or SSPE.

Had a really bad flu, but was supposed to turn up to my first day of apprenticeship. Awkward enough to be introduced on your birthday, but I also looked and sounded like shit. Could also not relax in the evening, because my now ex had a broken collarbone and could not shower without help, so I had to drive to his flat. He had no one else to help him. Got no thanks for that.

That would be fun to watch.

Thank you so much for this detailed answer :)

I really want to have kids for a long time already, but just recently I got into a spot in life where it seems financially and personality-wise an option. For a long time I was aware that there still was a lot to develop in myself. I also wanted to see and do things, which came a bit short unfortunately, for said financially reasons. I am stillt super afraid of how things will turn out, if I am built for the strain, if I will love my kid(s) enough, teach them enough and at the same time if job-wise everything will work. I really worked hard for the job I now have, but it is science-related and tnerefore I will never see a contract which lasts longer than three years. But I just know that I will regret not having at least one kid.

As a person who is considering to have kids in the near future: Thanks for the insight :) Could you recommend books to read? I already got some (hopefully) good recommondations on sleep related books, but I guess this phase is over in a blink and new challenges will arrive.

I spend too much on care products, which are sometimes or even often unnecessary. I just really enjoy some nice smells and glittery things sometimes. My newest bad habit are nail stickers…

This! Wouldn’t complain about 6 hours and 4 work days tho:)

I simply refuse to acknowledge that.

But these are also the types of intrusive thoughts I can get behind.
