You know those things people always warn you about when you're younger, and you just roll your eyes thinking 'whatever.' Then one day it hits you and you realize they were right all along. What's that one thing for you?
panic attacks fr. thought people were exaggerating till i had one at 18. now i get it, theyre awful
used to hate my dad for cheating and smoking. not saying id do it, but i get why he did now. being in a shit relationship where you're constantly put down makes you look for validation somewhere else.
grew up thinking cops only went after ppl who deserved it. then i got arrested at a concert downtown for literally just being there. they hit me with all these bs charges. i asked the cop straight up 'you saw i did nothing, what am i being charged with?' he said 'whatever the fuc
thought i was different, that she wouldnt do the same to me. learned my lesson, done being nice.
thought eating like shit and skipping workouts was fine for years. blamed getting older for feeling tired. turns out i had three blocked arteries, two at 90% and one fully. got em fixed and feel 20 years younger now.
always thought it was cap that id actually need proper sleep eventually, but now i cant just pull all nighters without ruining the next day
never thought a beautiful woman and her whole family would actually see me as someone they want around, but i just spent the 4th with them
when i was a kid i saw my friends grandpa peeing in the yard and i was like why would he do that, just go inside. now im old and my legs ache all the time and i totally get it
never got the whole anxiety thing till i was 45. always thought i was supportive but u cant really get it till ur brain just decides to go haywire for no reason
falling in love. i used to think no girl would ever give me a chance when there's so many better guys. now i got a fiancee and a 4 year old who's the sweetest kid.
still in the 'who'd even want me' phase lol but happy for you
good for you man. younger guys especially always seem to think that way. i was married then single so i know the deal. dating apps are awful but thats just how it is now and it gets depressing. but honestly its true you meet people when you quit trying so hard.
getting stuck in a sexless marriage with kids and no money to leave. never thought that was a real thing 😢
this is literally the oldest story ever, you and every other guy out there. what's the one thing all these relationships have in common, cause it keeps happening over and over
turns out a ton of us are dealing with this, sucks to see. hope we can all pick up some useful advice,
another one in the same boat. for me its more than no sex, my wife hates any physical touch. we did therapy but she drops out after a few sessions. now its just money and habit keeping us together, kids are grown and gone.
never got why people said they just existed after losing a kid. now i do. sadly.
