My partner and I have been together for about four years. We are having our first baby in July, im currently six months pregnant, and although I’m so excited and thrilled, I’m also really resentful for the loss of the relationship we used to have.

Mother’s Day gift or no?

Do any of you struggle with feeling obligated to buy your mother a gift even if you aren’t close or are debating going no contact? Due to past relationship issues and abuse and neglect (mainly emotional, but physical was also a factor)

Girls Trip

After a girls trip to Fiji last year, we came back not talking to one girl in our group. Some girl friends wants to go to Thailand this year. Am I wrong to stay alone in the same hotel as them? While they share space, I’ll have a room to myself. I’ll do all activities with them. I don’t want drama 😢!
