Equally embarrassing!

I can't see their profile or message at all so maybe I'm blocked by them? I'm not entirely sure how BSky works with that still.

How can you tell it's him?? Can you IP track?

Partner and I have seen them 3 times together, tbh we have pretty similar taste in music. The only things he goes to with friends and not me is emo nostalgia stuff 😂

Aye, we're heading back to London for a few days for them. (I lived there most of my life, had to move out of the city when it came time to buy somewhere of my own because I am not rich lol)

Next: cholesterol checks in modern Britain?

The same way you do any break up, one day at a time. Therapy would probably help? I guess you could also consider the positives you've gained from an otherwise lost decade - experience, resilience, your daughter!

Well at least it's something, and they are things you can replace even if they won't be exactly the same. I don't want to 1-up you - every lost meaningful item hurts - but my box that got lost in transit was the one with a painting my great-grandmother gave me when I was 3. Literally irreplaceable.

Call the moving company, and put a claim in through their insurance. They must have something in place for this kind of thing? Boxes get dropped, even lost sometimes (mine did when I moved back to the UK!).

I guess many jobs fall within the remit of "housewife" if the others have work themselves. Balancing this stuff can be tricky though - my partner works full time (from home) but I'm disabled and can't do the more physical chores. I try to even it out by doing the scheduling, phone calls, paperwork..

I think the way he just stopped trying to get her attention when she pushed him down made me feel like this was a normal thing to him. I get moms are busy, maybe on the bus is the only time she has to sit down and make this phonecall, but the kid's face just killed me.
