    I have this posted on my bathroom mirror: "At your absolute best, you still won't be good enough for the wrong person. At your worst, you'll still be worth it to the right person. If the feelings are mutual, the effort will be equal."

    I love this quote. I also love your profile pic!

    Thanks! (pssst - it's not really me) (and I betcha your profile pic isn't really you, hah)

    Unfortunately it's not! I can dream ...

    There are more than four available men in the world, and lots of them aren't moody and passive-aggressive.

    I don't believe you.
    I've been laughing at your incredulity for 15 minutes straight! :p

    You could lose up to 200lbs of weight that's dragging you down by subscribing to Single Ladies monthly! ;)

    (On a serious note: don't feel guilty about a cookie here and there, especially in rough times xx)

    That is a great QUOTE and so true.

    The best advice I can give you is:
    Have a torrid affair and you'll forget all about
    What's his name.
    You'll be glowing, blushing
    and shopping for new lingerie.
    Stop holding yourself back and start living!!! :D

    My husband has many great qualities- easy going is not one of them! But things do get better. I'm not one to hand out advice on love on the net too much as I have no idea really what's going on between you.

    But, I find journaling has really helped me. Sometimes I need a safe space to rant or to really get at what's going on in my own head and journaling helps me do that. I am not faithful to it, but I find that when I am somewhat consistant I feel better. And it doesn't have to be a written journal. I used to work with an LCDC who did these wonderful art journals. But, whatever works for you!

    Hope you find your way to happiness!

    Every relationship has issues LONG DISTANCE makes those issues 10x worse my fiancee knows me well and can tell when something is wrong when i lie about it he gets upset and says the same thing i have not seen a dr i am trying to control it myself but i have an eating disorder when i get upset or any negative mood i make myself throw up everything i eat sometimes i can stop myself sometimes i cant... all i am doing is taking out on myself which is the same thing you are doing i understand why you do it but your not hurting him just you my fiancee is not the cause everytime i do it i would leave him if he affected me that much but maybe you should try worrying more about you and less about him your worth it

    When I want to snack, I eat beef jerky. Packed with protein, pretty low calories and fills me up, plus it takes a little while to eat because you have to chew a lot. lol Just make sure you're drinking plenty of water because it's higher in sodium. :smiley:

    These are such fun comments! For now, we will try to make the relationship work. Thanks to all your support, I did NOT eat any cookies - or anything else bad for me. I just realized my goal (weight loss) was worth more than the drama of the relationship. Plus, the comment above that I need to look good for whomever is next is now my North Star.

    If you've decided to put more effort j to something for yourself, over a relationship, then yeah, it's time to go separate ways, I'd say. Sounds like there's a lot of lack of communication on both parts.

    "Some people say in a relationship, it should be 50/50, totally equal. Other say give it 100%, your all. I disagree, a relationship should be 60/40, both partners should give a little more, and expect a little less"

    :)

    Good luck on all your journeys!

    I didn't give up on my moody guy. We've been married for 23 years.

    He has so many great qualities and I don't expect him to be perfect. I learned how to "handle him" for lack of a better phrase. His sister recently said to me, "My brother found the perfect person for him. I love how you manage to simultaneously coddle him and smack him in the head."

    Oh I love this! Sounds like my husband too!

    Relationship stress was the thing that brought me back to the gym after months and months, which eventually led to all this weight loss stuff. Nothing like a good dead lift session. Admittedly, I came home and got drunk that first night while dancing in my kitchen to early 90s R&B. But I still made it to the gym and it felt amazing.

    Well, we patched it up for the time being and I DID NOT BINGE EVEN ONCE through the whole 4 days of drama. THANK YOU to all of you whose wisdom, humor and advice kept me off the "edge". xoxoxo
