    Left my ex four years ago now and I’ve got a 700 credit score!

    She didn’t fuck up my finances directly, but she undermined my sense of concrete reality and filled me with enormous amounts of stress and I couldn’t do anything but hang on by my fingertips in my career.

    Four years of active healing and it’s finally starting to manifest in my external life.

      Good for you getting your head in a better place.Sometimes what we want the most really is the worse thing for us.

        It was love at first sight, literally. We didn’t even discuss going out. The first day we met, we were together as a couple. I cannot emphasize enough that we did not discuss being a couple even a single word, but we both knew.

        I ain’t doing love at first sight again. Fuck that.
