Maybe I know what to do 5

Ozman, can you handle going to sleep, reading a book, watching TV, or doing something else to occupy yourself? If so, cool. If your anxiety is going to build to the point you do something rash, a quick call, "Hey! I was about to turn in and noticed you weren't home yet--just double-checking you're okay." wouldn't be the end of the world.

I know this sounds stupid. I’m sure it sounds weak as hell. But please don’t go

I'm here. I'm waiting for my girlfriend--got 69 minutes!


It's "funny" each of our situations is screwed up in a different way. Your partner lives with you but no ILUs. Mine is not coming home but plenty of ILUs. I think if we crossed parts of each we'd be set. :p

Update - Scratch that! We could also end up with double the problems.

I feel like I’ve fallen all the way back to square one. I don’t know how a person survives this. I don’t know

I don’t have anyone to talk to. She was my person. Now it’s midnight and and it’s getting harder to believe she is where she said she would be

She shaved her legs before she left. She wouldn’t normally do that She normally showers right before bed

[ozman]

What I would give to here an ILY from her. My dad never really said them. My mom just abused me. My only sister and I were never very close. We try but it’s hard

But my W. Those ILYs really meant something. I haven’t had anybody say that to me in a good while now

Many bars don't close until 2am, right? It could be nothing, it could be something. I get it [censored] being in that limbo of having no idea what's happening until she gets home.

[ozman]

Her friend she was going to see has kids asleep at home. She was going to her house

[Traveler]

I see! So, it's plausible she had a few glasses of wine and passed out or didn't feel safe coming home?

(This has happened to my girlfriend before. Really. Not as a coverup!)

[ozman]

I didn’t even thank sandi for her last giant post. What an ass

Thanks for being here.

I’m falling apart

[ozman]

She don’t drink. Like maybe once a year
