Ok so he’s done and I didn’t know this smooth of a Stairmaster could exist

She apologized for “lying” to me all this time (which I think is honestly ridiculous she has to do, I know this is layered). I just am feeling so shitty/tearful for myself more than I am happy for her, which in turn makes me feel more shitty.

And, here’s the selfish part, I realized it’s somehow made me feel safe that such a pretty, kind, smart person like her was having similar issues with dating as me. I guess learning that she’s quietly been in a relationship brought me into a renewed introspection of feeling very alone in being alone

I procrastinated by putting up my dinky 10-year old tree. I haven’t put it up since 2022. The memories in seeing some of the ornaments and just revisiting where I was in 2022 was unpleasant but facing it head on felt better than it being under my bed again another year. And hey it’s kinda cute.
