Sunday Confessions: 4-14-24

"Found out my gym crush has a girlfriend and I’m mourning the future fake relationship I created in my head."

Well, we did it. This week, I received more than double the normal amount of confessions sent in during most weeks. Is it because mercury is in retrograde? Perhaps. But after a weekend of trying to pretend that I can still drink martinis like I’m in my 20s, I needed them more than ever.

This week’s confessions.

---

I want to quit my job to avoid going in tomorrow.

Drank on an empty stomach and did a live feed Friday night. No recollection.

I genuinely hate how selfish and self-centered my best friend has become since she got married and had kids.

I’m a 31 year old dude that spent his 20s traveling the world and when I finally moved to a city I feel like it’s impossible not to find a woman that isn’t taken or not serious aka she’s scandalous. My goals and wants changed. Did I live life backwards?

I have been feeling extremely ready to quit my job. This past week the office mean girl announced she will be leaving before the end of the month. I honestly might stay longer now.

I’m legally married and am sure it’s the right thing for me. However, I’m weirdly infatuated with a guy from my home town, who I hardly know apart from his name. Sometimes I think I’d leave it all just to explore that avenue further, like in some dramatic period novel.

I struggle heavily with feeling like I’m not good enough/doing enough. Even through receiving praise and recognition, trying to focus on the great things I’ve done/will achieve. There’s still a voice telling me “it’s not enough.”

Cancelled on my friend’s birthday for a hookup. He’s visiting so we only had yesterday. Going to brunch with my friend as I’m leaving his hotel room.

My best friend is a picky eater and it’s so annoying. Grow up.

Found out my gym crush has a girlfriend and I’m mourning the future fake relationship I created in my head.

Sipping my cortado and fantasizing about getting railed by the hot nerd at the coffee shop.

I’m tired of being a mom and the responsibilities. I know that sounds awful, and don’t get me wrong I love my kid but I also love the person I am when I’m not with him.

I’m on vacation and I don’t know how to do nothing all day. My brain is programmed to constantly be productive and efficient and vacation is the opposite of that.

The best version of me is starting to flourish and I’m starting to worry that I’ll never be able to find someone who truly appreciates me. I’m scared that I’ll be the one loving more in the relationship and never be loved.

most of last week i sat in my office with the door closed and cried. i did not work at all. i took extra long lunches and facetimed my daughter for a significant portion of time every day

I wish I made more money than him so he could be the wife.

I am 32 and worried I will never find another partner post-divorce, will never have a family, and will die alone.

I am in love with my best friend. I am pretty sure she knows it too. She has started to date this new guy and has been very distant the last week. We normally talk for hours everyday. I am trying not to spiral.

I have had this idea for a tv show in my head for the past 7 years, and can feel it in my heart that it would be a hit so I’ve decided that this is the year I will do it all myself. I figured why not just make it myself. I haven’t told anyone else as I don’t want any negativity to influence me.

I’m getting interview requests for jobs out of state that would require me to move there full time. I haven’t told my partner yet.

I reached out to family this morning to talk and no one responded. I am truly alone in this world and it only matters to them if I’m here if I’m doing what they want me to do.

I had a threesome with my husband and friend about a year ago and I’m dying to do it again. But how do you find a willing 3rd partner if you can’t post it on social media?

Literally haven’t left my bed all weekend and have never been happier.

My sister complains about her country club lunches and parental volunteer activities and gets mad when I mention my work obligations. I own the damn company.

Sent nudes to my best guy friend, who I’ve never had feelings for, and now I think I might… no one else knows I sent them and my whole family hates him.

I went to a baby shower this weekend, saw the same women two years ago at the wedding shower. Now they’re all pregnant and I’m still single. Ruined the entire weekend and I feel like a loser.

It bothers me that my parents didn’t give us a wedding gift or even a card. They didn’t help at all during the wedding planning process -physically or financially. They live comfortably.

I hate that my sister has a thing with someone that is my age, meaning 10 years older than her. It makes it weirder for me to date someone the same age. I think she should be with someone closer to age.

The guy I’m dating just told me that he’s affiliated with what basically sounds like a cult and has been labeled as such online. He’s such a nice guy, but it’s definitely a dealbreaker for me and I just really hope he’s sees the light one day.

All my friends are having kids or pregnant and I truly don’t know how our friendships are going to survive. I literally cannot stand kids.

I’m still in love with my ex and every date I’ve been on since NYE has been boring, weird, or with a language barrier. I just want to take our time and try again with her.

Debating on breaking up with my girlfriend after meeting her family.
