I have like 5 tshirts that say some variant of "I'm dead inside" on them
Chilly, you naughty girl you.
Why did this make me both hopeful and sad at the same time?
I’ve been thinking on this all day. I wanted to have something nice and uplifting but I have nothing. I tend to be hyper independent because of past trauma. It seems like every time I take a chance and ask for help I regret it later. It’s just easier to count on myself. That’s not healthy and it definitely doesn’t help build a relationship so….i think we should be able to do things on our own but we should also be able to ask for help.Why did this make me both hopeful and sad at the same time?

I have wondered the same for me, i read stories and some make it intriguing, then I read stories and just think that is not me or how I want to be at all, i guess just like any other relationship, trust, and open communication would be heavily needed before and during the whole relationship building.Sometimes I wonder if I’d truly enjoy a real D/s relationship in person 24/7.
lol that’s what I’m talking about. The couple of times I thought I could completely trust someone I got badly burned. So now I’m not even sure if I could trust myself let alone another person. And the pressure it would put on the partner!Can you imagine just how exhausting that would be?
But would it be the kind of exhaustion that makes you sleep better at night or the kind that makes you seek anti-depression meds?
Agreed. I definitely hold myself accountable. The trusting myself….I'm trying.I think trusting yourself is the key. That and holding yourself accountable.
If you can do those two things, well I think thats when the magic will happen.
Sorry to hear! You are in my thoughts! I wish there was more I could do.Well it’s really happening. A RIF will begin…no word for the agency I work for at this time. Just been told to wait![]()
I'm sorry to read that! I've been in your situation a couple of times and I know the feeling of not knowing what will happen next.Well it’s really happening. A RIF will begin…no word for the agency I work for at this time. Just been told to wait![]()
Sorry chilly, hope everything settles down, but fear is a long time before that happens.Well it’s really happening. A RIF will begin…no word for the agency I work for at this time. Just been told to wait![]()
I sad face for the firings and thumbs up for hope because it's a hospital and they run short handed as is. That ugly ass teletubby in the oval office is killing careers, moral and lives. I hope nothing happens to you Chilly, you've been thru enough.Well OPM and the State Department fired all their probationary employees this afternoon. No notice, no warning, no union. A teams meeting followed by an email.
I’m no longer manic and panicking…I’m more my body has given up and I’m just going to lay here and wait for something horrible to happen. I’m not probationary, I’m not close to retirement. I’m right in the middle. And hopefully being in a hospital means something. But damn I hate this for everyone.
With me? Yes.Sometimes I wonder if I’d truly enjoy a real D/s relationship in person 24/7.
