I remember signing up to this site 7 or 8 years ago wanting to find other Aquarians because I thought for some reason we would all be the same and be best friends lol boy was I wrong.

It was only when I broke up with my second serious boyfriend of 2 years that I spilled my insides on here about my tales of abuse and torture ultimately becoming another statistic of the broken hearted and failed relationships, I even got my dxp cherry popped from p-Angel with my first ever roasting.

So today a friend of mind posts on Facebook she's getting married to man after they've known each other for 2 months and everyone is happy for them, when I'm in there like, "bitch please in 2 months you've known him you haven't even gotten off your ass to file for a divorce from the husband you broke up with 3 months ago" I said it endearingly and she kindly told me to go fuck myself which is fine by me. But I read something like that Nd my eyes bulge and I think to myself "don't they know anything!?! A stable relationship takes years of building foundations and tearing down walls and give and take and they haven't even considered their astrological compatibility, Jesus Christ he's a Scorpio and she's a dumbass Leo it will never fucking work!!!....""

I think over the years I've learnt a lot about relationships, I'm in one now and I'm not tearing my hair out and were cool with each other just relaxing whereas my past ones prior to knowing this site have been immature, unevolved, superficial and just wrong.

What have you learnt about relationships from dxp??

I love this site. Make me appreciate how great my problems are.

I get the same feeling that I do when watching survivor and their all, "it's been 3 days since we've had anything to eat except bugs and these questionable berries" and I'm over here with a pint of mint and chip.

I think the things that I read on here that pop out to me the most are people's insecurities, he hasn't called, she friend zoned me.....I think this place is where hidden insecurities come out and run rampant,

My favourite topics are made by those who aren't being honest with themselves therefore post something ambiguous that's supposedly about someone else when it's really about themselves..

Or when people ask questions but the answer already lies in the what they've written

I learned that I need to figure things out for myself. I love that I have a place to "think out loud," and I enjoy the comments of others as well as appreciate the support. But, ultimately, I need to just live through it.
