    I love my ex husband with every fiber in my being.
    I trust him with my life.

    He gets on my last nerve and there is no way I could ever live with him again.

    this resonates with me. sharing living space with someone is awful

    I have an aunt who has lived alone since she divorced in her twenties (she is 63 now) and I used to always think she must get sad and lonely... 3 years in to living with someone else and I totally get where she is coming from - she is one of the happiest people I know!

    Why does everyone wanna be in love so bad?

    What’s so great about putting another person before yourself? Considering the needs and desires of another before your own? Being patient, kind, humble? Do people think it’s easy keeping no record of wrongs? What’s so wonderful about always trusting, hoping, protecting, persevering? It seems to me if people want to love they can go ahead and start doing it without waiting for some magical partner.

    But I think I’d rather speak in the tongues of men and angels.

    I envision love being, two that have themselves figured out (not being perfect beings) just capable of owning their Crap. Idk accountability, honesty and happy being themselves. Then meeting someone, who they genuinely can be their self with and both just meshing their two worlds, as one. Is that a thing? ❤️

    🤷‍♀️ maybe?

    i think love requires a lot of work, forgiveness even in a good match. I think everyone has their limit.

    i feel like life is easier, freer, more comfortable without that deep commitment to one person. And I wonder if people really really knew what it meant, would they be so keen.

    I agree.. also feel like I’ve never been in love and I’m married.. so there’s that

    How'd you ever end up married if you didnt love him?

    You're definitely not alone on this.

    +3

    I dont fully understand how this is.....but i think there are a lot like this.

    Well obviously each circumstance is different. I wouldn't feel comfortable typing my own situation out on a public forum, but from what I have learnt from others, it isn't uncommon.

    Pretty much the same. My situation is complex and not something to toss around in public forums, but it’s real

    Same and I wouldn't say that I wasn't ever in love but things changed and it got complicated. I'm working on it though.

    I do believe infatuation can feel like love then things spiral then you're committed and don't want to hurt feelings and just go along with it, thinking it will get better. Not to answer for anyone, everyone has their own feelings and reasons. Just my opinion and I seem to see this happen a lot.

    i think its best to not go chasing waterfalls. im better off just sticking to the rivers and the lakes that I’m used to.

    How can I love and hate a post so much at the same time?

    A friend that’s unhappy.
    Sometimes it’s difficult to know what advice to give.
    Virtual hugs I guess. ❤️

    There is Chloraseptic Max Sore Throat Relief that works pretty well too.

    If it tastes terrible, I won't use it. If it's that Mucinex one, no thanks. It was grooooooss.

    Doesn't all cold medicine taste terrible? Mucinex saves me every cold, especially when the coughing starts.

    Pills are usually okay. But man, those chloraseptic sprays make me gag and start coughing. Bleh.

    According to my 7 year old, however.. all his medicine tastes awesome. Apparently when you become an adult, they don't care as much about making your meds taste like bubblegum or cherry. :laugh:
