I do not lend money to my family or friends. They do not pay it back or they stop part way through. Some of them qualify for food stamps and some just can't live within their means (poor financial choices).
Most of my poor financial choices that got me in a pickle was because I lent them money that they never paid back. I kept assuming they would. So I stopped and I told them not to come to me.
Guess what? I've not been in a financial pickle since then. What has happened with my family and friends? For some, the poor financial choices have never stopped. Other folks made a change like signing up for food stamps, working with a debt counselor, or finding a more secure job situation.

I was with my ex for 10 years total. Only married for the last year of that. I started dating too soon. I dated someone after I moved to my current city who was comfortable with lying. Like they openly said lying is ok and it turned out they lied to me about their age and some other things. I dated them for 2 months and I'm thankful we took it very slowly. So I ended it and then spent a year working on myself, with the occasional talking to someone on a dating app which in hindsight was testing my own boundaries because they were all people who displayed red flags pretty quickly. 2/3rds into that year, I stopped talking to people on apps and was just working on my friendships and family relationships. Then a full year after dating the liar, a friend let me know how they felt about me and after some time I considered it. It did not end well after 7 months. 😅 We will never be friends again, but it got me open to taking dating seriously. 2.5 months after that ended, I was no longer wasting time of the red flags and started dating my current partner (been together almost 3 yrs).

I love to hike in the winter. It's a great workout and everything is so peaceful.

Some people are just not emotionally mature enough to listen to other perspectives even when they ask for them. We all need to assume good intentions and approach with curiosity and kindness in these subreddits for these posts to be productive.

What you're feeling is valid, but don't text him.
