whats wrong?
(not meant in a nosey way) why and you and your partner arguing?
(I don't know what to say about your parents except I sympathise)
As for parents- they're driving me mad, I'm looking at going away this weekend to escape somewhere.
I can't give it to him basically because of home conditions, which I feel terrible.
He doesn't really do smypathy tbh. Thankyou thou, just chatting here is helpful, and is taking mind off of doing something. I'm often finding myself in the middle though.
you can PM me if you want to vent or chat if you want.
Cheers I appreciate it
That sounds familiar (the non-smypathy bit). If your parents are getting to you that much you really need to ask them to leave you out of the arguements and not get you to take sides etc. And your partner knows whats going on and is being unhelpful/demanding regarding sex etc then he needs a kick up the arse and to think about your feelings on this.
I don't really get involved in the arguements, yet they just bitch to me about each other. He doesn't know what's going on, cos it's his birhday tomorrow, so I didn't want to spoil his day, or time off from holiday, but it seems like I've already done that via the sex.
Well tell them not to bitch to you then, I've had this with friends that are in couples and its not fair on you to have them do it to you, espically as your still living at home. If you dont want to have sex with him because of the stress, fair enough, but he needs to understand why and not get annoyed with you for it.
True, I'll tell him when he's calmed down a bit!! I understand he needs to understand though. I'll say that to parents too about not bitching to me, cos it really is driving me mad!
Just nicely, and seperatly, explain to them that you dont want to here them bitching to you and can they please discuss it to someone else as your feeling stuck in the middle. You might also have to say to them when they start, that you dont want to listen and even walk away from them if you have to.
Yeah, thankyou I'll do that. I don't know what's wrong with me, but I can't cope with arguements.
I cant either, I've walked out the house many a time when my parents or my dada and brother started on each other.
Thanks for having me x. I'm really contemplating telling my dad about my self-harming at the moment have no idea how he is going to react. I'm thinking he won't take it too well, but hopefully he'll keep an open mind and try to understand what is going on. The only trouble is that he takes it all on himself- I really don't want to break his heart.
Good luck with telling your dad. I think you're really brave, I don't think I could ever tell my parents, don't know how they'd take it xx
I have a request of you.
Would you mind terribly if I used some of the things you've posted in here as part of my ToK presentation?
It's just an idea, but I wanted to ask your permission before I did it.
Hope everyone is ok
(stress induced)
are you ok? x
just worried about an exam and what might happen if I fail.
Yeah sure, no problem. Hope your okay.
Yeah. theres 1 chance if you screw up but I don't intend to. Im gonna give it my best shot, then, see what happens.
thanks for replying though.
Best idea all round, you only really need to panic when your results come in and there not what your expected, but you'll be alright.
