@ladedadida I'm so sorry to hear that, I know you said he had been going in and out of hospital but I hadn't realised how serious it was

[Irene @Suikascented]

@athuface I will always remember my friend telling me how easy everything was once she married a national, she would be told no but once her husband asked it was of course ~fine~ fills me with rage

[Irene @Suikascented]

@athuface There is one in London I'm pretty sure

[Irene @Suikascented]

@athuface I always get ill when I have holidays booked smh

[Irene @Suikascented]

@athuface We've had some sun the last couple weeks and London does truly come alive. Can't wait #summerbaby

[Irene @Suikascented]

@athuface I know!! You'd be welcome to come down if timings aligned. Edinburgh is lovely though so it's a good place to visit

[Irene @Suikascented]

@athuface I have followed you ☺️

[Irene @Suikascented]

@ladedadida I am at tasteofceladon!

[Irene @Suikascented]

Long time no write! I feel not much has happened and a lot has happened at the same time. 1) Still in London 2) Still working in pharma 3) Still living at the flat but... 4) sold the flat and struggling to find a house to buy in North London, feeling the pressure

5) broke up with ex no4 after 2 very rocky years that included threats to kill himself, couples therapy and medication 6) 6mo later had a brief fling with a friend from work who was leaving the country (and who is now moving to Barcelona) that made me discover things about myself

[Irene @Suikascented]

[Irene @Suikascented]

(...) Yes I also broke up with ex, failed at the casual thing with a friend, did not finish all the DIY I wanted to, did not put the flat up for sale and did not find a new job (nothing wrong with current job - just far and want to live in London). (...)

[Irene @Suikascented]

(...) started therapy, went to pelvic floor physio, asked for help to my friend the PT to start exercising more, continued doing archery, continued doing TTRPGs with the lovely group I met thanks to Reddit in person and online with old friends and started laser hair removal (...)
