  • So I’m in my 30s and from the UK so maybe not the most relevant person to get this sort of advice from.

    It sounds like you’re not in love anymore and have very little in common. If you have no strong reasons to stay together (financial, children, housing etc) then you could have an amicable divorce and maybe gain some more freedom to explore and enjoy yourself.




  • So it seems this post is mostly about your love of watching videos of games and why don’t more people do that.

    There are a few games I want to play but haven’t. I don’t generally enjoy watching other people play games, for me the fun is in the experience. The choices I make and the systems mastery I gain. Video games are active entertainment, a video is useful to see if I might like a game or to say watch the alternate endings but spending 40 hours watching

    I watch a lets play with commentary from Pete Complete playing Rimworld because it’s basically a story generator and it’s a really good bit of passive entertainment. But it is not the same as playing the game, I’m invested in the characters which develop but not to the same extent as when I play Rimworld myself.










  • For me realising that I care for people (as a job) and if I don’t get it right my patients could get hurt means I’m much more likely to ask for help for anything from little simple things to bigger my mental health is suffering and I need more support from all aspects of my life.

    Asking for help isn’t easy, everyone wants to be strong and self sufficient, remember we are a social species and evolved to work in groups and help each other. Think how you feel when you can help someone or if you’ve been asked to help and remember that when you seek help.


  • I message my wife when I get to work and when I’m leaving. So somewhere between an hour and 7 or 8 depending on exactly when in my day I get nabbed for her to notice.

    My work colleagues would probably try to call me if I didn’t turn up (I’ve fallen off my bike before so they might suspect that) but I don’t think they would put out a police report immediately if I just didn’t turn up one morning.
