Is this normal or toxic?
Relationship Stress / by MarZiAnne

...See more There’re SO many aspects of my almost 6 year relationship that are problematic. How do I know what’s abusive and/or unacceptable and what’s just normal turbulence in a long term relationship with another human bean? As a woman who values herself equal to men, it’s especially difficult to negotiate what’s objectively fair and what’s unfair but expected of me because of unfair social norms. Idk where to go because much of the internet (***, reddit) and even my therapist are quick to insist that I leave the relationship if it isn’t working for me BUT I feel like they don’t know the story or consider the very real cost of leaving an established and (while flawed) at least not dangerous relationship. Anyone else have events or aspects in their relationship like that? I’d appreciate others perspectives and, if people are interested, I’d like to start sharing those parts of my relationship here.

Years behind on my thesis

...See more Does anyone have advice about this? I’m literally YEARS behind on my thesis and am afraid so much time has gone by that I don’t stand a chance at passing but I’ve sunk so much of my family’s time and money into it that failing isn’t an option. I could have been done LONG before this but I feel like I don’t know what I’m doing and am frozen. By some miracle, I’m close to being done but lately I barely work on it and when I do I just make more work for myself by redoing the analysis again and again, which doesn’t necessarily make the project any better.
