I'm a lawyer. I have done some stints in employment law and I also have worked in a lot of corporate audit/compliance spaces and know quite a bit about performance management and work related legislation where we live.

My partner (30) is being performance managed in her job. She didn't realise this was what was happening until she was venting to me about what was going on and I was like 'are you aware this is formal performance management and they are setting the scene to be able to legally fire you?'

Her manager and her manager's boss have had 2 performance meetings with her and have scheduled a third in a month's time (which, where we are, is the appropriate notice period for termination). They've provided clear performance issues, have provided a supposed opportunity to improve etc.

My girlfriend doesn't have a lot of experience with this stuff so when she was telling me what was going on, I tried to explain how many red flags there were and I also explained her best plan of attack if she wants to slow or dissuade the process. She doesn't have any other jobs lined up and the economy is, needless to say, very bad.

I wrote her an email to send to her manager prior to meeting 2 and told her that if she wanted to take my (non-legal, of course) advice, it would be to send it ASAP. She didn't send it. She didn't take any of my advice and still doesn't seem to fully be taking this seriously or to understand what is probably happening. I've told her to ensure to capture what was said in each meeting in emails etc and she just won't do it.

The thing is, this has hit on a long standing issue with us. Now, for full context, we really love each other and get on like a house on fire. We don't argue, but we do miscommunicate in this way.

She always, always, always wants comfort and never advice. My girlfriend is definitely someone who likes to vent a lot but doesn't want to hear solutions. And I am someone who is almost the opposite and does not like to complain without it being solutions focused. I don't think either of us are 100% wrong. These preferences are the results of both our nature and our nurture. I have tried hard to remember to lead with 'what do you need from me right now?' even when my first instinct is to help fix a thing. I do think I can be annoying in this way.

At the same time, in this particular situation, I've been struggling. For one, this is my job. It is what I do and something I have expertise on. For another, this is a big thing. One of us losing our source of income and becoming unemployed is a big issue that impacts us as a couple. And so I have found it really frustrating that I am trying to offer good advice that is time sensitive and she is saying 'I am too overwhelmed, I can't do anything, nothing can be done, I don't want to hear this'.

The problem we keep hitting up against is that no matter the gravity of the problem, she hits overwhelm and any attempt from my end at trying to solve the problem, even if it genuinely needs solving and it needs solving quite quickly, is met with 'I can't, I don't want to talk, sorry'.

I have told her that ultimately its her choice how she wants to approach it and I am here if she wants informed help. At the same time, a part of me is starting to resent (scary...) her for basically letting this job slip away unchallenged when I can sincerely help and do a lot of the leg work for her. It scares me that I'm feeling resentful and it scares me too that one day we could have more significantly joint finances or a home and the same set of events would occur and she may not be able to cope or make decisions that we both need to be made. I was honestly astounded and quite pissed off when she told me she didn't send the email I drafted for her, because I'd taken away the emotional and mental labor and had tried to impress upon her that it needed to happen that day and no later. I am still, honestly, confused about why she didn't take the advice seriously.

At the same time, I feel like maybe I am being too callous and I am in the wrong. I have consistently said things like 'this really sucks....I can't believe it....I'm sorry this is happening...this is really hard', but maybe offering advice when its unwanted, even if you think its necessary isn't ok? Or maybe not being willing to receive it when its really necessary is self sabotage? Both?

And what if that would change?

A while ago my (then) partner mentioned she would have a hard time if I made more money than her. To paint the picture, she was 5 years older and more of the “masculine”femme. We broke up for other reasons, but this still bugs me. I’m wondering about other wlw couples.

My relationship with my girlfriend of 9 years ended 2 months ago and I honestly think it should have ended it sooner. I thought we were going to grow old together, we’re also best friends but a lot of issues were neglected and communication wasn’t great, but life carried on and so did we until I started to communicate more and more frequently after multiple failed attempts. I always thought we would work out anything that was in our way together so I help on not a single time was separating an option until our final conversation, she said that she let me wait for her for 9 years and she doesn’t know how much longer she’s going let me wait for her.

I realized that I love her but the truth is even if you love someone, you might not be able to be with each other 🥲 and that hurts a lot, we are on good terms but every time I think of her or occasionally text her about moving my things out of our house I get so emotional.

We’ve been through so much together and a part of who I am as a person now has a lot to do with ‘us’

I’m about to be 37 in January and I’m lost, not in the sense of not knowing who I am, this year was actually an awakening year for me I’m finally starting to feel like myself and I was going to share this with her, but now’s there’s only me.

I don’t even know where I’m going with this.

NEED ADVICE!!!😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

Its a very long story. I posted some stuff back over a year ago that she gave me and she said she didn't need anymore .. I feel like they were "trash presents" .. ive got a few more things that I cant handle to keep anymore . They are probably her other ex lovers and I dont know what to do with this stuff. Its weird to send back after a year and i dont want to give to charity . The stuff was useful to me but I dont want to be reminded of her

Ive been close but I wouldn't generally. I get flirty vibes from some women in my current workplace but I stay well away . Its annoying cause im single and im having no luck on dating apps and to me women at work are off limit unless there was some crazy exception.

Idk if anyone else feels this way, but to make a long story short, I often feel like as a fat femme it is hard to find people who are romantically interested? I personally think I’m super sexy, and I know I have an amazing personality, but it often feels like people sort of auto cast me in this motherly friend role pretty immediately. Like people ARE drawn to me, interested in my life, care about me, etc but idk it gets exhausting constantly being cast in this role and never viewed as an actual option. I often feel like people treat me as their platonic wife, like I’m their best friend, they want to ask me for advice first, tell me their good news first, and we will have these really intense levels of emotional intimacy but it feels like attraction is effectively all anyone cares about and I’m not really most people’s type. It’s extra frustrating for me because I’m into butches but can’t really do a lot of the femme presentation stuff due to disability so idk maybe that’s part of it? Like I have short hair, can’t wear makeup etc. maybe this is a me thing but I was wondering if anyone else felt similar

I've not had superb luck dating. My first relationship was capital A Abusive. Emotionally, verbally, psychologically, physically, financially and a bit of sexual abuse. I had no self esteem, I thought I was going to die alone at the age 17. Home life was a bitch and parentals weren't exactly the accepting type. No, they were the "what would the neighbors say" types.

When I met her at 19, I attached so hard to her I let her do whatever she wanted with me with little regard to my own wants, needs and safety. Fast-forward 16 years I'm in a poly relationship that didn't suit my interests. Got involved in it because my now wife wanted to sleep with a guy she liked. I knew if I didn't let her, she would leave me.

So I embraced polyamory to the best of my ability. I got a girlfriend. The relationship spanned two years and as my marriage collapsed like a neutron star, my relationship with my girlfriend grew. Eventually I asked her to marry me and she said yes.

We were long distance and the last time she visited in person she promised me we would never have to say goodbye like that again. She kept that promise. Just not in the way I think either of us expected.

Things got rough between my girlfriend I, her home life was simply put, a disaster. Almost since we met, we were trying to get to move but she couldn't because she had things tying her down. And this is where things start to show their issues.

I ended up absorbing all of her problems. I made them my own. I tried to manage them, keep track of them. When there was something scary that would happen, I would feel it as acutely as she would. I had to shoulder a lot of the responsibility of the move on my own. Literally reshaped my life so that she could.

And there in lies my folly. One among many I assure you. I struggle with codependency. I love very strongly, I have bouts of low esteem, and I struggle with feeling wanted and needed. So it's very easy for me to bury my feelings down and become what I think my partner needs me to be.

But in time, eventually, my needs reassert themselves and I start to struggle. It must have felt awful for her. I cried a ton. I became controlling. Emotionally so. I couldn't control my own feelings and so, unintentionally, I tried to get her to manage them for me. I was a bad partner. I was unhealthy and I couldn't see it because... well... I had the wrong definition and idea of codependency. And because she pulled away. She stopped talking to me about her feelings. I tried to tell her my feelings and how unfair I thought she was being to me but that just caused her to pull away more.

She became more distant. More defensive. She started breaking plans with me and then making excuses for it. Date nights that were once said to be sacred to us both were now free for her to ignore. She was upset with me early on in our relationship when I broke a date night and now she was doing it regularly.

We used to share friends but she distanced herself from them. She told me towards the end that actually having time apart made her heart grow fonder after two years of talking on the phone everyday. Something we both loved doing. Then she went around back to me and told me that none of my friends talk to her anymore and when I asked if she tried talking to them.

I started getting the feeling she was talking more to her friends about me and her then she was talking about me and her with me. She started to accuse me of things I didn't say or do. Accused me of being jealous when I wasn't or accusing me of being insecure even as she was pulling away. Promised me that she would never just break up with me and block me. Promised me she would talk to me first. That we would seek therapy if it got bad. I don't think she intentionally meant to gas light me but my friends had to sit me down and explain that I could trust my senses. I felt safe in my relationship because of those promises. I trusted her when she said she was just tired and didn't want to talk. I trusted her to talk to me. I could tell she didn't want to, so I didn't push her to talk to me about her feelings.

I wanted to give her space to feel safe and respect the distance and time apart she needed. I started working on myself more. Being ok with being alone and just accepting that I don't have to manage her and that she doesn't have to manage me and I need to do it alone. But it was all too little too late. Three days after we finally got the approval for her to move. She sent me a text that started with "I hate to do it like this but"

She blocked me from everything. My fiancee, the woman I loved more than anything, who was my partner for two years, who promised she would never do this to me, blocked me like... we were nothing. I reacted... predictably badly. Had a panic attack immediately. It came out of left field and after her promises and assurances, I was utterly blindsided. I tried contacting her through other methods and nothing. I did everything except ask our friends for help contacting her. This was my mess to clean up and I refused to put them in the middle of it.

I had a dark night of the soul. In her goodbye message she left me many things to chew on. My need to be needed. My controlling behavior. My struggle with self acceptance. I saw with horror everything I had done wrong. What I could not see before, what she would not tell me while we were in a relationship, she gifted to me as a breakup message. I have had epiphany's before but none that felt so dark as this.

I talked to my friends about this. Some who were more close to her than to me, simply didn't believe me or when I would talk about the negatives, about her distancing and bad behavior would tell me that it sounded like I wasn't taking responsibility for my actions. The ones who knew me better were kinder. I would receive many a "I'm proud of you" in the months ahead. Even though that was hard to accept. My therapist, a supreme light in my life, told me that part of my codependency was needing others to validate my feelings. I was hoping our mutual friends would see the effort I was making because I was terrified I wouldn't be believed. It was toxic and I had to work on being able to validate my own feelings and learn to trust myself again. Which was especially hard given I know I hurt her. My therapist, when I asked how can I trust myself when trusting myself hurt the person I loved the most: "Slowly. With the compassion you show others, given to yourself."

It's been three months now. I wish I could say I'm completely over her. I wish. The day to day is mostly good. I've been crying more lately. I was disassociating from my grief for a bit and now I'm reconnecting. I can see things clearly now. I can see the part I played. I can see her enabling behavior and then the distancing. We are only human. Every now and then something will remind me of her. Something that was our thing. Music, video game, restaurant etc and i will feel a pang of it. We post in similar places so a few days ago I saw her talk about a new relationship she was in and for the first time since that first week I went into a full dissociative panic attack tail spin.

Originally I wanted to send her a letter in a package with a bunch of her stuff in it. I worked on it over the months, writing and rewriting. I think I had something like 20 drafts. Never thinking it was a good idea to send. Over time that letter became smaller, shorter, less personal. Until today where it feels like the only thing I would say is to ask for my copies of Sunstone back that I gave her temporarily. lol

This post is my way of saying goodbye to a person who is already gone. I loved her deeply and with all my heart and I did the very best I could to make it work. There was nothing I wouldn't have done for our relationship and like a child, I was too immature to realize why that was a problem. In it's destruction, I am a better person. I am healthier mentally. I look back at some of my past behavior in horror. I am a writer now, I've actually written short stories and novelas and I'm working on a novel. I can soothe myself. I don't need anyone to validate my feelings. I've grown so much.

I also have a better understanding of boundaries and my need for a partner who can express them so that I don't accidentally trample on someone else's feelings. I remembered it's ok to cry and to struggle. That just because she couldn't handle it (literally saying how she was tired of the disruption it was causing to her life) that doesn't mean I am less worthy of love and a partner who can see my tears not as a sign of calamity, but a sign of my resilience. I will seek partners who match me, who love me for me. I will only change myself for me and no other. As my therapist said "You cannot change yourself to make other people happy, you will only guarantee your own misery. Your people will find you"

I think my Ex would be proud of me if she cared enough to feel anything about me anymore. I know that despite how it ended, I am proud of her for doing what she thought was best. I am glad I had this opportunity for growth. It is hard and sometimes I still grieve and that's ok. It's ok for hard things to be hard. We all walk at different speeds and that's ok because when we look around, we can see many other fellow travelers.

Our people are those who walk at our pace.

To my Ex, to you who read this and to all of humanity itself: I wish nothing but the best for you in this life. Thank you for journeying with me as long as you could

Genuine question, how do people actually meet fellow nerds/gamers who want to build genuine connections?

I love the idea of meeting people who share similar interests, whether that's gaming, nerdy stuff, or just having random conversations that somehow turn into talking about life for hours. People you can joke around with, be yourself around, yap about the most pointless things with, but also have those deeper conversations with when the mood strikes.

I think what I struggle with is that so many interactions seem temporary nowadays. You meet someone, have a good time, maybe talk for a little while, and then it just fizzles out. There's nothing wrong with casual friendships, but I'd love to find people who actually want to put effort into getting to know each other and see where a friendship goes over time.

I miss the idea of slowly building a connection with someone, becoming more comfortable around each other, making memories, and eventually having that kind of friendship where you can talk about pretty much anything without feeling like you're forcing a conversation.

I'm not expecting to instantly click with someone or be best friends overnight. I just wish finding people who are genuinely interested in building something lasting felt a little less difficult.

So where are you all finding your people? 🥹

I (33 y) matched someone (36f) maybe half a year ago? I live in a very rural town and there are not a lot of lesbians at all... We wrote a lot and i don't remember why but then i got a little bit of an ick. I stopped writing and explained i think (not a ghoster).

Had a summer fling. It ended. Back on the apps again ans the person i mentioned wrote me directly: Are you on the apps again? We wrote a little and i found out she also does not drink and does not smoke, is a lesbian, lives near to me...

We now made an appointment for a date, but i am a little scared because i dont remember the ick so well... It could be that she did not yet finish the uni for the job she already does? And i yearned for someone that already finished it.

That is not that bad ick in hindsight...

What are your thoughts?

I think my plan is to meet and see how we vibe... And on paper she already fits my check list.

At 32 so far Ive had quite a complicated love life.

Ive met a few flakes and it was what it was at the time in that moment.

My last love interest I really liked her and I would do anything for her .. I wouldn't say she was directly bad to me , but she was a bit toxic generally. I mean i feel like she was bad for me .. something happened that she was involved with and I believe she was part of the problem and she was kinda gaslighting me to believe a lie. She was like this a lot but this thing was major and it triggered me to walk away from her .. I understand but it really shattered me and it was a very complicated grieving process , I found it hard to stop loving her until I started to see a lot of problems in hindsight,.. Ive been devastated that I thought I found someone for me despite being toxic. I went back to look at her socials and felt the vibe has gone , I dont feel much when I see her face or care much about what shes doing with her daily life ..

Its made me scared to fall in love cause what if I get this again .

The first two times I liked a woman and parted ways it took me 2 years to get over her . With my most recent ive stopped talking to her for almost a year and its starting to die .. its weird cause my connection towards her felt more genuine and more caring and I feel like I really did love her, I wasn't lusting or obsessing over her. Maybe ive peaked maturity with her but I dont really know. I feel like if I saw her again she'd feel like a stranger and thats very weird to me.

I went to see a mental health professional not about my relationships but my mood . I was paranoid that I might have a personality disorder based on how I feel about myself with women and fearing that I might have avoidant behaviour . As it turns out im fine and my behaviour is normal and well regulated .

I hate the feeling of needing to leave someone but its always good to go with my gut

Hello, I've used reddit a few times to post for friends and it's a hit or miss. Sometimes messages get lost or deleted, so it's difficult. But I'm here to try again!

A little about me - 34 year old single lesbian from the UK (would love to move further into Europe someday), currently studying in a particular branch of engineering, has pet cats (of course), casual gamer, tech enthusiast, learning Dutch, favourite holiday is Halloween and I have worked with vulnerable animals in the past, I adore animals.

I have a fairly dark past, a lot of tragic experiences in life. But I'm here today rebuilding and opting for a life that fulfils me. I'd love to have people to chat to, to expand my circle and whatever else comes of it, I'm open.

My dm's are open too.

In my life Ive liked one women with kids, it didn't work between me and her. In my time in knowing her i was good with her kids. Ive never wanted kids in my life but if i ever met a woman that I liked and it worked out id definitely adopt her kids too. People say im good with kids but im not sure about the responsibility side of having children and dealing with being a step parent between co parents.

Edit: Thanks everyone for the insights and advice! I think I'll still suggest meeting up as friends since we genuinely have a lot in common and I'd hate to miss out on a potential lovely friendship over this. However, I won't pursue anything romantic, if she eventually decides to quit, that's entirely her decision and we'll see where things stand then. I also want to make it clear that I'd never ask or expect someone to change for me. Sometimes people can get along wonderfully and still not be romantically compatible and I'm slowly learning that it's totally okay!

I'm 27F and pretty inexperienced with dating, so I'm looking for some advice from fellow lesbians! I've been chatting with a girl I met on a dating app. We have quite a bit in common and I genuinely enjoy our conversations but we haven't met yet (been chatting on and off for maybe 2 months?).

We've tried making plans three times. I cancelled the first because I was sick, she cancelled the second, then disappeared for a few weeks. We eventually reconnected but she cancelled our third attempt because of work (she did give me a heads-up it might happen so genuinely I'm not upset or anything except maybe a bit disappointed).

Here's my dilemma lol. I recently found out she smokes. I'm asthmatic and have had asthma attacks triggered by secondhand smoke in the past (they are rare but still possible) so smoking has always been a firm dealbreaker for me. Had it been on her profile, I probably wouldn't have matched with her truthfully. She was super understanding when I explained the situation and mentioned wanting to quit but like I don't want to be like "you gotta quit for me" as this is not my place or my decision.

So now I'm a bit torn tbh as part of me genuinely wants to meet her because I do really enjoy chatting with her and would like to see how we vibe irl but another part knows I couldn't see myself dating someone who smokes.

Am I overthinking this? Would you still meet someone knowing there's already a major incompatibility or would you call it before the first date? Also I'm genuinely sorry if this sounds like a stupid question/dilemma but I genuinely have no idea what I'm doing! Some of my friends are like go and some others like don't go so it's confusing 😅

I don’t know if this is the right place but possible to find gaming friends here? I’m 33. England but sporadic sleeping pattern. Some fav games are dragon age. Mass effect. Persona 5. Witcher. I play a lot of Fortnite and COD7. Also down to talk movies etc. and just make in general friends.

Please help me - where could i find lesbians over 30 in my rural city?

The apps are not working 🥹

Thank you 🌻

⚠️ Warning: Long post ahead! I need to get some things off my chest, so grab a coffee or your favorite drink because there's quite a bit of backstory. Haha. ☕️

Hi everyone! I've been thinking a lot about my life lately, and I feel like I need to get some things off my chest and hear from other women who might have gone through something similar.

I'm about to turn 30, and I'm a lesbian. I'd consider myself a pretty attractive woman (Honestly, many men and women are attracted to me) , and I've dated quite a few women. Interestingly, most of them have been older than me. I even once dated a woman who was 30 years older than I was. Something else that has happened to me quite often is that women tell me I'm the first woman they've ever dared to go on a date with.

And here's the part that confuses me: even though I've been on plenty of dates and had quite a few romantic flings, my sexual experience is very limited. I've only had sex with a handful of women, and I've had sex very few times in my life overall.

A lot of the women I've dated seem to be attracted to me, but things almost never go beyond kissing and some touching. I don't know if it's because many of them were heterocurious and got scared when it came to taking things further, or if there's something about me that makes it difficult for things to progress.

I'm not saying anyone owes me sex, obviously. It's just that this pattern has happened so many times that I don't know what to make of it anymore.

I'm a pretty bohemian, private, and reserved person. A lot of people describe me as mysterious. Some women I've dated have told me I can be a little cold, while others have said I'm really sweet and that they like me a lot. I've never quite understood why people seem to have such different perceptions of me.

I've also never had a serious, committed relationship. Most of my romances have been short-lived, lasting six months at most. Whenever I've fallen deeply in love, it's been with people with whom things somehow seemed impossible. Some of those feelings and connections lasted for years, while I continued having brief romances with other women.

Over time, especially through therapy, I've realized something pretty painful: most of the women I've fallen deeply in love with ended up being part of toxic relationships, with dynamics that strongly resembled what I experienced with my family. Somehow, I kept repeating familiar patterns, even when they hurt me. I understand those dynamics much better now, and I feel like I'm no longer looking for those kinds of relationships.

But I think this is only part of the story.

I come from a very dysfunctional, controlling, and abusive family. I grew up around alcoholism, abuse, and incest, and I experienced situations in which my own life was even at risk. Two years ago, I left my parents' home with my mental health in terrible shape. That same year, I lost loved ones, my job, and someone I was in love with. It felt like everything fell apart at once.

I moved to another city to live with my sister and her family. Some things got better, but living with my brother-in-law eventually brought back painful family dynamics. About a month ago, I had a mental health breakdown and ended up moving again. I now live with a friend, work remotely as a freelancer, and earn just enough to cover my basic expenses.

The strange thing is that now, finally living in a peaceful environment with someone I feel comfortable around, I've started to realize something I couldn't see as clearly before: I think I've spent practically my entire life surviving instead of actually living. Now that I finally have a little peace, I'm starting to process a lot of things and ask myself who I really am when I'm not constantly trying to survive.

There's a possibility that I have PTSD, and I've also been asked several times whether I might be autistic. I'm still trying to understand what's going on with me and how everything I've experienced may have affected the way I relate to other people.

I think my experiences may have affected my romantic and sexual life. I don't know how much emotional space I've actually had to build a healthy relationship, get to know myself intimately, or explore my sexuality in a relaxed and comfortable way. Maybe for a long time, I was too busy keeping my head above water to even realize what I really needed.

I'm trying to rebuild my life now, but I'm also questioning so many things about myself.

Sometimes I feel like I wasted my twenties. I'm about to turn 30, and it frustrates me to think that I've never had a stable relationship, that my sexual experience is so limited, and that I'm still trying to find a safe place from which I can finally start living.

The strangest part is that I do feel sexual desire toward women. In fact, lately I've been feeling a very strong desire to explore my sexuality, meet women, and have experiences I feel like I've missed out on. But at the same time, I wonder whether my past experiences have affected my intimacy so much that I don't really know how to navigate it. I've even wondered whether I might be asexual, although I'm not sure that label actually fits me.

I don't want to assume that everything is because of my trauma, but I also don't want to keep looking for flaws in myself every time something doesn't work out with a woman. At the same time, I don't know how to distinguish between my circumstances, my emotional patterns, my personality, and the simple fact that some relationships just aren't meant to work out.

Right now, I feel pretty lost. Sometimes I think I have very little to offer at this point in my life, even though I know I'm probably being too hard on myself.

And this is where I'd really love to hear your experiences and advice.

• Have any of you felt that your past trauma affected your romantic or sexual life? How did you begin building healthier relationships?
• Have you ever found that plenty of women are attracted to you, but actually developing a relationship or having a fulfilling sex life feels incredibly difficult?
• How did you learn to feel comfortable with your sexuality after spending years in survival mode?
• What steps would you recommend I take from here? How can I start exploring my sexuality, meeting women, and enjoying this part of my life without feeling like I have to make up for all the time I think I've lost?
• I'm about to turn 30, and honestly, I want to enjoy my sexuality throughout my thirties. I want to have experiences, meet women, experiment, fall in love if it happens, and, above all, allow myself to experience things I haven't been able to experience until now. Where would you start if you were in my position?
• Are there any women here who only really started enjoying their sex lives or romantic lives after turning 30? What was that experience like?

I'd love to hear your experiences, advice, and even the things you wish you'd known when you were in a similar situation.

Anyway, here I am, almost 30, trying to rebuild my life, understand myself better, and feeling an almost ridiculous urge to meet women and explore my sexuality. LOL. I feel like there's a part of me that's been waiting a very long time for its turn, and now it finally wants to get out there and live. 😂

Thanks for reading. ❤️

Note: When I have been intimate with women, I become very aroused and worked up, but I am unable to reach orgasm. (I have a history of attempted sexual abuse during my childhood and adolescence; perhaps that has had an impact.)

I can do talking for a bit but sometimes if it drags too long I might be in the friends area. When do you flirt with someone? What if I'm still taking my time before I figure it out if I do like them?

If anyone wants to support my friend’s new business, she’s amazing!

This is a minority, woman and queer owned business, and i know that she worked SO HARD this past year to get it all set up, and become a business!

LETS SELL HER OUT!! 🏳️‍🌈❤️

As a former college athlete who's 31 it's very important to me to stay healthy and fit the older I get. And I get instant gratification seeing my work in the gym is paying off. Makes the 5am gym sessions before work all the more worth it.

Me and my (soon to be ex) wife decided to get a divorce after almost 12 years together.

Most of my friends became our friends, and I work remotely since I’m a software engineer.

I just turned 30 and am not sure where I can make new friends and maybe start dating again in a near future. I was considering hobbies and social activities but I’m a shy person and it will probably take some time for me to feel comfortable with such things. Any advice?
