How I did it

It took me
4 years
It made me
Excited!

How I did it: It took me about 3 days to backcomb my whole head, because I was doing them myself.  I started from underneath, and worked my way forward, in imperfect sections.  I ended up with 72 by the time I was done.  Read how I did it…

How to give myself a budget
It took me
1 week
It made me
Feel Great!

How I did it: I subtracted all the money out of my paycheck for bills, then I established a small amount to use on various things throughout the week.  I now write down every penny I spend, and at the end of the week I review it, and ask myself if I really needed to spend that money. Read how I did it…

Get 30 college credits completed
Untitled 5 months ago

This took me about 16 months to complete, but I’m happy I took it step-by-step. This has allowed me to work towards a bunch of different things at once, which is more my style.

save my relationship (read all 2 entries…)
Well, I guess I'm back here, again 9 months ago

Things were so good for a while. Then, once we started to talk about marriage and moving in together, things got crappy again.
I had been dropping hints about marriage, while he was dropping hints about moving in together.

So then we actually started to talk about getting married, and for about one week, I felt the best I ever had. I thought he was going to propose, and things felt like they were “in place”.

I wasn’t like planning the wedding kind of happy, I was:
“I want to be your support system, I want to be the one who takes care of you when your sick or upset, I want to bring you breakfast in bed once in a while, and have arguments about where your black socks are. I want to be the one that travels and learns with you, I want to have children with you, I want to suprise you with muffins when you least expect it, I want to bring you home that book you’ve been wanting to read (for no reason at all), I want to be your wife” kind of happy. I had felt this sense of peace and felt like things were just… so right. And I had thought he felt the same way too.

Then, all of sudden, he says we should move in together, not get married, and he’ll move to the other side of the country for about 6 months and I’ll be right there waiting for him when he comes back. I asked if he could commit to being with me, and he said, “I want to be with you for a long time”. Not exactly the answer I was looking for. Then I said, can you tell me you’ll be there 5 years from now? His response, “I can’t promise anything, because things can happen, I might like it out there and want to live there indefinitly”.

...

I don’t even know how to explain how crappy I felt right after he said that. It ruined and crapped on the whole way that I envisioned this relationship.

And now, I don’t even know if we’re worth fighting for.
