Fess up.

FutureMrsDudley55 · January 2010

I confess..

.. that I can be a selfish brat and it drives me nuts.

.. that I can jump on the bandwagon of treating my FI like crap sometimes and I call myself on it because I make myself mad when I do it.

.. that I have to do a Dietetic Internship to be able to take the Registered Dietitian exam, and I don't have the strength to fill out applications. So I may not do it. (Ricks - I may just go on to grad school like you and wait a little longer)

.. that I worry about FI too much and I fear for his health. He's gained a lot of weight in the 5.5 years that we've been together and Coronary Heart Disease and Diabetes run in his family. It scares me.

.. that I don't eat as well as I should and wonder why people should listen to me when it comes to health advice.

Ohh you edited between my post and yours so now half of my reply makes no sense!

lyndausvi · January 2010

I confess that not drinking for the month of January might come to an end tomorrow, Jan 2. A whopping 1 day.

DH just told me we are having dinner with some guests tomorrow. The wife is well, interesting. I imagine I will need some wine with dinner in order to get through the night.

It's sad, but true. Maybe I should amend the not drinking to being able to drink once a week??

sarabellam · January 2010

I confess that I am a complete and total raging biitch 1 week a month, and I can't seem to control myself. As in, yell at my children over insignificant piddlyassshit, freak out on my husband if he forgets to take out the garbage or something equally benign. I don't know why my husband puts up with myshit, but he does, bless his heart. It has gotten worse in the last few years, but I haven't talked to a dr about it, because I don't want to go on any hormonal drugs.

Koopa17 · January 2010

Hi everyone, happy new year!

I confess that I'm horribly judgmental and make fun of people way too often. If I bothered making new years resolutions, that might be one of them...but it's probably been my resolution for the last 3 years, and obviously nothing has changed!

I also confess that I must be two faced though, b/c I could never say anything mean to someone's face. I hate the thought of hurting someone's feelings.

I also confess I'm acting like a spoiled brat lately and buying lots of expensive crap I don't NEED, but "need".

cbvcru67 · January 2010

I've been pushing my boyfriend to consider relocating alot lately, but I know he isn't really into it. I feel like quite the beebee sometimes when we discuss it. And while I think the talks we've been having are constructive, I need to learn to talk (and think!) less selfishly sometimes. For me, Im having a hard time balacing "Us" and "me."

thesuninherhead · January 2010

I also confess: I'm surprised with how many non-engaged newbies have appeared in this thread (ok, there may only be two or three, but it was still a surprise for me!).

Posted by cbvcru67[/QUOTE]

I think that's normal actually. While it's obviously important to compromise in relationships, even with most compromises someone comes out a little bit ahead of the other. I completely understand this, I mean logically I don't want to be selfish, but I don't want to give up everything I want either. I think it just takes time to make those kinds of decisions.

cbvcru67 · January 2010

Thanks TLV. I think its something we're going to be dealing with for the rest of our lives..... who "trumps" who and making decisions for both of us - especially with careers. We're both what I consider Type A and I think that only makes compromise tougher. It makes me feel better to know that other people are working with the same problems and I'm not just some selfish jerk.

ThePinkSuperhero · January 2010

I confess that I never mop my floors (I swiffer and dustbust and spot scrub), but I'm going to have to start because they are not good. But then I'm like, eh, I don't really want to do this, I'd much rather hire a cleaning lady. It's probably ridiculous to hire someone to clean a place this small, but on the other hand, it's probably pretty cheap, too.

thesuninherhead · January 2010

haha Pink, I don't bother moping my floors, either. They've been mopped once in the past few months. I vacuum regularly, but don't ever mop.

CPLUSR2009 · January 2010

Its Ciaram22 I can't post under that one so this is my back up.

I confess that I hate my job. They take me for granted and throw me under the bus for everything. I can't quit because I can't afford to live off of what I would make at any other job.

I too get frustrated with DH. He is almost always so accomodating but every once in a while things just happen and it frustrates me.

I am pissed at my sister because she made Christmas all about her and how much her life sucks because she lives with our grandparents and mom, works at mcdonalds and gets a $500 a month allowance to do whatever with. While she doesn't have any bills to pay. Her car, car insurance and cell phone are all paid for by our grandparents.

Salt, don't stress. I had no dress at under two weeks and I still didn't cry (although, I did cry after the lawyers emailed, but that was the only time!). It's not going to be stressful, you've got everything organised!

[QUOTE]Another confession that im not proud of, im getting sick that my weight loss is going so god damn slow. Yes I should be glad ive lost what I have, Yes I should do it the healthy way, but im sick of waiting. At the very begining of working out I was taking some pills - firedrin - recomended to me by a friend who lost a ton of weight, and they worked but I got a weird allergic reaction after being on them for a month or so and I went off. I still have some left sitting in the bottle and ive been toying with the idea of going back on them because im sick of being patient.

crfische · January 2010

I confess that I knew that would happen with the secret santa thing and the reason I didn't participate. I'll stick with exchanging with people I know.

I also confess that I get really annoyed when people think that because they have a degree that they are entitled to a job and that they are qualified straight out of college for a job. You might have the right paperwork, but experience counts for something. Also, there are 2348203948203482034823409 students straight out of school who also feel qualified for the same jobs and are applying just like you.

I know what it's like trying to get a job straight out of school, but sometimes you have to work to build up your resume to get the dream job.

[Deleted User] · January 2010

I know I'm late, but here are mine:

When I go back to work next week, I've got to do something that is going to break my heart. It's been eating away at me throughout my entire vacation and it sucks. It's the one aspect of my job that I absolutely loathe.

I will also jump on the mean to FI bandwagon. I've been incredibly depressed lately and have taken it out on him and instead of getting angry, he is even sweeter. I'm going to work on being better to him.

This is more of a flame than anything else, but psichick makes me want to break things. Like smash them. To smitherines.

Smitherines is a good word.

It's not really firing them, but they will no longer have a job after it's over. I can't really get into specifics, but it just sucks.

Oh i know pills are bad for you, and I always advocate doing things naturally, but it nags at the back of my mind sometimes. These pills have been nagging at me for months, but I havnt started taking them again because whether the weight comes off or not I still worry about the side affects because im an extremely paranoid person. I still cant bring myself to throw them away though whether I intend to use them or not.
