It's called "Sunday Boxing" and it's a joke painting from the show Parks & Rec where it hangs in the fictional Pawnee's City Hall.

Communication is key. Text her like, "Hey was thinking about you, everything ok with you and Jon?" And let her fill in the open-ended question with whatever she's comfortable telling you about.

Oof, sorry you're having such a rough time right now. I wouldn't feel too bad about the woman you had to leave behind though. Because relationships are a two-way street and she has to put some effort in too. If she didn't fight for you or try to figure out a way to make it work for you both, then she wasn't prioritizing the relationship anyway. As an example, my partner and I lived at least 1000 miles from anyone we knew and we had no support system. When my partner, who was the breadwinner at the time, lost her job, we together found a new solution. Yes, it meant picking up and moving across the country again in less than a year, but the alternative was homelessness. Never once was our relationship on the line, even if our housing was. There's someone out there who thinks being apart from you is the worst life choice ever, so don't miss her by being sad about the ones who aren't her.

Not park time or off leash time, your dog needs leashed walking through the neighborhood with you. Walk circles around a nearby school or weave through the streets and do "focus" training with her to bond.

Here's one similar to the one I had! https://www.ebay.com/itm/404424220236

Anti-static keychain! They're small, cheap, and buyable on Amazon. You basically just touch it and it discharges the static without hurting. Life saver for me, my hair builds up a lot of static and I used to shock myself and family all the time.

What a cutie and a trooper! "I'm gonna need 1000 kisses stat!"

Fuck yeah. I bet your closet is cool as all fuck.

I think you should take some time to self-reflect and think about what you really want for yourself in the future. Is this a guy you want to be your boyfriend or still just a fling? If he's just a fling, you feel no emotional connection, and just want to have sex, move on and get someone who actually wants sex with you. If this is someone who you want to pursue in a serious relationship, ask yourself if this is a person who genuinely makes you feel happy and supported?

Personally, I don't think he wants to be involved and isn't worth your time and effort. Life is really short and there's billions of people out there to meet, millions in your appropriate dating pool, thousands interested in dating, and likely hundreds where you are. So don't get caught up in some romantic idea of pursuit and star-crossed lovers.

Holy shit, they're so cute! They look like cartoon dogs!

Punch yourself, then. You just "generalized" the gender of a random lemmy commenter. Again, hilariously ironic.
