He is so DELIGHTED
“They want to hire a part of me.”
Everything about this, from Carrie’s viscerally presented and excellent point, to the pun, to the look on Stephen’s face like he just fell in love. Everything is so, so good.
You are not limited to one characteristic and emotion
Literally what me and my nephew text back and forth :') I love him so much ❤
i love every inch of you, and you keep pushing me away.

My boyfriend of 9 years broke up with me
He said he's just "not happy." He said he's "falling out of love with me." These were the most painful words I've heard in my life. He wants some space - I get it. We've been together so long that it's easy to feel like one entity. That's why it hurts so bad for me. I feel like he completes me. I think he'll come back. He's broken up with me three times within the past month. We've quickly gotten back together each time. I know that's not healthy but I can't stand the thought of actually losing him. The reality of losing him is even harder. I don't know what's wrong with him. He won't communicate with me. He says he just has "no joy." I honestly think he's depressed. He said he doesn't know why and he can't put it into words, he's just not happy. That's another reason why I think he's depressed. He said that it's not me but it's him. He said that maybe I'm not the problem, maybe he is. This was a huge thing for him to say because every time we've broke up this past month has been a result of a problem he's had with me. He's from an immigrant family of hard workers. They came to this country with nothing and built amazing businesses that are the gems of our community. I think that's one of the reasons why it's so hard for him to admit he's dealing with depression. He feels guilty for his sadness and discontent in life, which is amplified when he thinks about how hard his older family members had it. "Why are you sad? You have no reason to be sad. I'll give you a reason to be sad." Those kind of phrases are thrown around his family often. Besides this, he's a man. Male depression often looks a lot different than female depression. I'm studying psychology and neuroscience, so I know this already. But, it's also good to keep telling myself. Depression is guilt. Feelings of sadness and guilt. I think being a man with depression can be harder because they aren't encouraged or comfortable sharing their feelings. This has to be harder when they don't understand their feelings or how to express them too. I think his lifestyle definitely adds to these feelings of shame and guilt. Men often experience or express depression in different ways than women. Men often feel more anger or more irritable whereas women are more likely to have feelings of despair and hopelessness. Men are often more likely to experience disinterest in family and loved ones. When men experience depression, they are also more likely to engage in risky behaviors, like driving drunk, getting in fist fights, etc. He doesn't drink, so maybe his risky behavior is manifesting in ending his 9 year relationship? I don't know. I changed all the things that he had problems with about me. I worked on my appearance, never went out or to see him unless I looked good. I was a lot nicer to him. I asked him about things that were bothering me instead of jumping to conclusions... I forgave him when he was caught flirting and talking to another girl. I dropped it even though it still kills me every day inside. I think that's when he realized that maybe I'm not the problem. He is. He admitted that he was depressed and has a lot going on mentally and emotionally, which was a huge deal for him, I think. I'm devastated. I feel unloved, forgotten, and pushed aside. I have been patient with him, I have loved him through a lot. I have been forgiving in instances that I thought I would never be able to forgive him. I have tried to love him the best I can. I hope he gets help. I hope that he really works on himself and his mental health. I have been addressing my mental health and physical health for a while now. Being someone who also has depression and anxiety disorders, I know that it is a huge mountain to even acknowledge, let alone climb. I love him so much. He's been my best friend since I was 14 years old. We grew up together. He helped shape who I am. I really believe that knowing him and growing with him has shaped me. His personality has become a part of my personality for sure. I guess now I just have to focus on me. This is so hard and I miss him everyday. I miss his family. His mom is my best friend too, which makes this even worse by the way. I'll be praying for him. I hope he finds his way and that he will be happy with himself and in life. I hope that he addresses his depression, because if he doesn't, that is a beast that will destroy him. It does that to everyone. But for now, I'm moving forward with what I started. I'm going to continue going to therapy for my depression and anxiety disorders, continue working on my fibromyalgia with physical therapy, keep working hard on science, and keep trying to love myself. That's the only thing I can do now..
