Sorry for the upcoming long block of text, but... I'd been seeing this guy for almost a month now. After 3 weeks of talking and 2 weeks from our first date, he asked me to be his boyfriend. I too thought this was pretty fast, but considering we'd been seeing each other pretty much every day I said yes. For context, we live down the street from each other and were together like 5 days a week. Over the weekend I went to the beach with him and two of his friends. I wasn't in the best mood and didn't really socialize much with them. This was my first time meeting them and I felt on the outside of all of their conversation, not to mention I wasn't in the best mood since I had nothing to eat that entire day until 5pm when we all got Chick Fil A. It was also super cold at the beach, but they're beach bums so that didn't seem to phase them. Not gonna lie, I was also a bit disappointed we spent the entire day with them since our original plans were to go eat and watch a movie alone. I felt bad for being antisocial and apologized to him later that day at my house. He said he didn't think I was in that bad of a mood and asked if I was always like that when meeting new people. I told him no, I was just extremely hungry and cold, and as he saw the night before when I met two of his other friends for the first time, I was not like that at all. The past two days I felt something was up and that he wasn't telling me how he really felt since he was taking a long time to respond to my texts and snapchats when he usually would instantly respond and message me back a lot. Today, he was supposed to come over and I was going to cook dinner for the both of us. When he got to my door, he basically told me he didn't want to continue on this relationship since that meeting with his friends left a bad taste in his mouth and he felt it was a red flag to feel this way in the honeymoon phase. I felt like it was a stupid reason, especially since he's been the one pushing this whole relationship from asking me to be his boyfriend only after a few weeks, already posting me on his Instagram, and even asking me to go to the Beyoncé concert in September. I don't really feel sad, just disappointed that the first flaw he saw in me after telling me I'm so perfect and whatever for weeks would make him want to break up with me. We had something really great going on and I was optimistic about where things were heading. So, am I in the wrong and the one who f*cked things up? Did things go way too fast and this was always bound to happen? I don't know how to feel rn, I just need advice/ opinions.

discussion Do you ever get confused for a different race?
Distantconstellation posted a topic in The Lounge
Happens to me a lot. I'm latino, and it's usually non-latino who always ask me if I'm Asian or half Asian. This old Jewish woman at my job yesterday asked if I was oriental, and I had to tell her nope. I've even had some Asian people think I'm Asian too. My 23andme says I'm 59.7% Southern European (italian+spaniard) and 34% Native American so im assuming it's the native American side thats making people think I look Asian or part Asian. I've even been in Vegas a few years back and had these 2 guys say a bunch of Asian slurs to me as I walked by them, it didn't affect me because I'm not Asian but I felt really bad at how racist it was though. -

discussion Nervous to talk about insomnia with nurse practitioner?
zasderfght posted a topic in The Lounge
Hey! My nurse practitioner is a wonderful lady, but let me explain why I'm feeling how I feel: I've struggled with insomnia since last year. So bad to the point where I take an ungodly amount of melatonin, Unisom, and/or high CBD-gummies, and I fall asleep for maybe 3 hours. If I actually do sleep 6-8 hours, it's interrupted. When I can sleep 6-8 hours uninterrupted is more rare/infrequent than it is common. This is bad because on the days I truly don't sleep, I feel super nauseous and have to take my Zofran. This, fortunately, isn't all the time, but not getting proper sleep drains you. My therapist seems to think mindfulness works for everything, and the one time a sleep meditation worked for me, I still woke up hours later. Because I'm already prescribed Xanax for panic attacks, I'm kind of embarrassed to ask for another medication. I don't want to feel like a pill-head, but the truth is, I just cannot sleep naturally. I've even tried teas and supplements, OTC meds similar to Benadryl. Nothing sticks. And I'm not on any antidepressants or other drugs that could cause insomnia. I guess you could say I feel guilt because while I do incorporate more meditations, and I've seen some reduction in anxiety-- to the point where I don't think antidepressant medication for anxiety is appropriate at this point-- I'm nervous my therapist is gonna think, "I'm telling this guy to meditate to fall asleep, but instead he's taking a pill." Any thoughts? I might just end up bringing my insomnia to my NP anyway because sleep is super essential, and I deserve to live a normal life. -

discussion After attending my fave's concert, I'll have nothing else to live for
GentleEarthquake posted a topic in The Lounge
I know ATRL is not the best place to post this. but it's anonymous enough. And I just want at least one person to read my story. It can't be someone I know in real life. It'd be extremely hard to tell them. So... whatever This friday, I'll finally get to see my fave live for the first and possibly the last time. I live in a country where not many foreign artists come, so I was quite surprised and amused. I was sure she was never gonna come here, so I always considered it a delusional dream. But it seems it will come true, if everything goes well. The thing is, in 2021. Many events occurred which literally left me traumatized, in my own house. Everything was falling apart, and I had to cry myself to sleep hoping next day would be better, but it rarely happened. And it got worse everytime. My emotions started to fade away from my body and I became lifeless. I had constant headaches, it was hard to even get out of my bed, I could barely do the things I loved to do, I had long and tiring rage episodes which left me exhausted and hopeless, I didn't know what to do. I realized I've always been surrounded by violence, vile people. Things got to the point where my mind was completely fixated on stuff happening at home. I couldn't be at home for obvious reasons, and I couldn't be outside because I didn't want to return. I was afraid of returning and finding the same situation again, and again, and again. I was 17 at the time btw, still living with my parents... Now two years have passed and although things have gotten a little better, I feel like I'll be forever diseased by those events. I saw a dozen psychologists, took various types of med, went to uni, tried to do new things, but I was always at the verge of things falling down again. I was hospitalized for a week last year and diagnosed with AS (aspergers) months after. I wasn't surprised, it kind of made sense, but I couldn't help but feel angry towards the world. How come I'm gay, neurodivergent, introverted, barely smart, not talented in arts, not talented in sports, not pretty and was born in a third world country and bullied in school. It's so damn unfair. I feel unable to finish this semester, things have gotten bad again, except for the concert, which I'm grateful for. But I'm thinking about finishing it all for once afterwards. It'd break my heart to leave my mom, my sister, my dog, my best friend... everything, but I don't know if I can't take this anymore. Such a long text, but thank you if you read it all. -
