How’s life (help distract me please)?

[Anonymous]

I’m unwell, I’m stuck at home, and now I keep stalking my ex.

As a result, my mental health isn’t great and I’m TRYING not to reach out to him because that’s basically playing with fire.

How’s life? Any distractions please 😂

[ShiftingMonke]

I wish I could distract you with my life, but at this point I'm at the boundary between malfunctioning robot and worker drone in my circular path and pattern; I'm almost a spectator in my own life.

But if you seek a distraction, perhaps a good true-crime documentary can be helpful, something to take yourself out of your own mental doldrums and make you grateful that your ex isn't stalking you?

Others have offered assistance with getting over your ex so I'll leave that subject alone, but hopefully you come to a semblance of senses and things beging moving back up for you! If you ever need to vent, I'm here to lend an ear.

Thanks

I’m getting married in 9 months…

[Asker]

NO WAY!!! Ahhhh congratulations I’m beyond happy for you!!!

[Asker]

You’re a great man she’s going to be incredibly lucky to have you

[yucel_eden]

Than you!

Did you know that if you took out all your blood vessels from your body and laid them all in a line, end to end, you'd be dead?

[Asker]

Oh dear

[Agape93]

Also did you know that cow hooves can get cysts that need to be popped? It smells horrendous

[Asker]

Oh goodness

[Agape93]

What do you call a mortician with bad jokes?

[Asker]

WhT,

[Asker]

What?*

[Agape93]

A pun-dertaker

Cooking some healthy meals, watch a movie/documentary. Put your phone away if that helps. Read a book

[Asker]

Thanks!!! Those are great ideas

[belle_kai]

Also have you heard of cognitive behavioural therapy

It helps you catch your bad habits

Life’s going well. Busy. My line of work is difficult right now. Do you have one of those adult coloring books? Maybe doing something artistic can shift your focus away from your ex. Important, because as you know, contacting him opens pandora’s box to all kinds of trouble.

[Asker]

Good idea thank you!

[Zayed_]

Your mood right now:

Never reach out to an ex, I did that a year ago and I regret it.

My ex

[Asker]

Yeah…. And he’s crazy CRAZY. Definitely better to stay away from him

[Zayed_]

I’m jerry and you’re tom in this scenario

[Zayed_]

Call your friend to forget about it

[Asker]

I don’t have any friends that care 😂. Actually that’s a lie I’m seeing one friend tomorrow but I’d prefer not to be that friend that blabs about their ex too much.

[Asker]

Most of my friends haven’t been in relationships so they don’t care about these things or they’ll judge me

[Zayed_]

Damn your friends sound cute lol jking. anyways if you want to talk about it, I’m here

[Asker]

Thank you!

Exes are exes for a reason, let them stay that way. Distracting question #1: what would you do with the kind of money elon musk or jeff bezos has? Skip the "buy a house, take care of my family, buy a nice car" obvious stuff, what's a dream you could only do with that kinda money? Build an underwater city? Replace trains with rollercoasters? What would you do?

[Asker]

Buy my own island, live in a cute little house by the sea

[Old_Golden]

With jet skis? Trained dolphin taxis? Be extravagant!

[Asker]

Yes trained dolphin taxis!!! Damn!!

[Old_Golden]

C'mon, make it your own, what would you want?

[Asker]

Definitely that

[OfMiceandMen]

Not bad, had a good long weekend. Went for a hike/snowshoe up in Algonquin Provincial Park. Did some winter camping. It was relatively mild, watched a pair of River Otters playing by a big beaver dam. They were sliding down the icy hill/shoreline out onto the ice and diving into the opening.

These guys are sooooo cute!

[SnowedIn]

Really sorry you're not well!

I'm working in my office this week, my two bosses are in town and I'm managing the logistics of a visit with their leadership teams. Desserts, dinners, parking, etc. It's a lot.

[Asker]

Thanks!! And good luck!

[SnowedIn]

Thank you! Not hard but demanding...

[KostasKouvalis]

It's good. I think I'm gonna attend a palm burning ceremony today, and I'm going back to work next month.

Still not feeling well, huh :(

OMG< why are you trying to contact your ex? I'm RIGHT HERE :p

[Anonymous]

I guess the best way would be to see if there is anything that needs doing and if you are well enough to do so. Try doing them, cleaning, cooking maybe sorting through your stuff. Read a book try learning some form of new skill maybe look into possible further education options I'd your interested in that.

Maybe look at one of those mental health workbooks to help with your bad habit of trying to contact him.

[Alex8736]

life is good, life is sweet so grab yourself a front row seat

[Asker]

Haha poetic

[Alex8736]

hope it made you smile

[exitseven]

I had a good HIIT session this morning. I am at work now eating lunch. We still don't have any snow.

[NostalgiaSenpi]

My first advice would be to stop stalking him. My second would be to find a consultation you can get at home through the internet.

[loveslongnails]

What are you unwell? Hope it's not serious?

[Asker]

Thanks! I’m alright just feeling dizzy

[loveslongnails]

Do you have vertigo?

[Asker]

I have a virus

[ThomasDavid1989]

You really do have problems

[Asker]

Yes I do. It’s single girl syndrome

[Tstrbrainer]

Watch some series lol
