I think we’ve got it narrowed down to a trip in portugal that has a beach ride and dolphin viewing, but on the main site we were looking at only had availability in November. And the actual Portugal site for the ride seemed to agree with this. But then a different riding holiday site showed availablity in end of October which would be a more pleasant weather wise time to go. But is it even really available then?

And then my friend got the November dates approved off and doesn’t want to move them because her boss is out of town and she thinks it’ll be hard. But going two weeks early makes a lot more beach and pool options available which we’d both really like. And I feel like with six month notice, two weeks makes zero difference in what will get approved and like she has unlimited PTO anyway. But also there’s no approval process at my job. I just kind of say when I’m going on vacation and then coordinate coverage.

Shouldn't you be able to function on your own without them?

Isn't that a lot more beneficial?

Because if you NEED to be with someone it is taxing and just so unhealthy and wrong.

You. Are. Not. A. Half. Looking. For. Your. Other. Half.

You need to learn to be a WHOLE person who finds another WHOLE person and you stay with them not because you NEED to, but because you WANT to.

They should not be your air, or your water, or food, or shelter. They are not a house; they are a home. They are a fine wine or a loyal dog. They are a beautiful sunset or your favourite book.
