I’ve been writing a lot here about LO and our rather messy relationship. So I just want to share that I finally got closure now. We had our annual Christmas party at work and I actually thought about not going because I didn’t want to risk any more drama. But I went anyway and I’m glad I did. LO and...

Yup! The idea alone terrifies me. And I’m super paranoid so it has crossed my mind more than once. However I find it very unlikely

Thanks for your kind words. I highly doubt that it had anything to do with ethics and support. In my culture nobody really cares about your wellbeing in the school system after a certain age. I think it was more likely to be some sort of weird power trip. Initially of course I just thought she took ...

I think it’s a good thing that you are this aware of it this early in your LE. Hopefully you’ll be able to regulate your emotions a better when you’re anticipating that your interaction with LO will affect your mood and mental state. For me it has been helpful to practice interacting with LO in a no...

I feel like I’ve moved on from my latest LO, so I think I might be ready to share my other story with the previous LO and only other very bad LE I experienced in my adult life. I was in my mid twenties on my last semester of college. It was kind of a scary time for me about to graduate from many yea...

It’s been a while since I wrote an update. I’ve been struggling a lot with anxiety. But LO I’m as much over as I guess one can be when working closely together every day. However the withdrawal is bad. I’m so craving the highs but the occasional fantasies of having these cravings met are not surroun...

I remember having these feelings when I first met my partner. Eventually I learned to enjoy the calm weather of a healthy relationship. Though it still can drive me a bit nuts when everyday life gets too mundane. It’s supposed to be easy in a healthy relationship and limerence is not easy in any way...

Damn. The A-hole is like a pet or child that just gets more needy when not given any attention. “Remember when we hung out last year and the weather was so lovely”. Sure, I remember… but I’m not going to take the bait and engage with you in a conversation about it.

I can definitely feel LO sensing that I mentally cut him off and him trying to lure his way back in on my radar. I really do feel like I’m so over him and can honestly say that I don’t like him anymore and don’t want to interact with him in any other way than the bare minimum to make it work profess...

Yup. Same with me. It usually starts by LO showing interest in me. I guess going forward we have to be careful when people take interest in us. But nothing good will come from trying to understand why people act the way they do if they are not doing us good anyway. Though I really understand the nee...
