Pick me up?

I'm 34. Hate my job. Hate the guy I'm seeing. Hate everything. Thought things would get easier with age.

Waiting for the guy I'm seeing to dump me. It will be a relief. He's brought me down so much.

Desperately applying for new jobs.

Can't see the light. I am fortunate though, have wonderful friends and family.

But I don't feel good about myself and don't know how to pick myself up.

Help?

Start by dumping him first. Make it your choice, why are you waiting for him to end things?

Why on earth are you waiting for him to dump you? Feel empowered, finish with him and then focus on something you like to add some positivity to you life.

In a similar situation, I am trying to go NC with the guy I was seeing. Being single isn’t that bad, in fact it’s much less stressful. Dump him and focus on yourself for a while, improve your life before trying to let someone else in.
