Feeling Down

I am about to graduate with my associate’s this fall semester and transfer for my bachelor’s degree in the spring

but I’m feeling discouraged because I have been going to interviews looking for the right starting position and I’m just ready to get out of the house especially since my kids are all going to school? I am really gunning for this position at $22/hr that I would love and the director loved me, the manager, even the corporate manager!

they said they would get back to me regarding next steps today Monday 08/17 but they haven’t called or sent an email.. my husband said I should call them tomorrow? the job doesn’t start until september 1st and they even moved me to the 2nd round and asked if I was still interested

I do get discouraged because my husband makes like $45-$50/hr so i’m trying to build myself a career too? to be able to contribute
but either way I’ll finish my degree and if i do get the job it’s great but if i don’t it’s okay i guess?

😞 What should I do?

I don’t want to bug them? how long is it appropriate to do a follow up?

Calling is often more helpful for following up than emailing is. We got the house we're renting because I made a phone call, instead of texting or emailing the landlord that we were interested.

Maybe pump the breaks on that call. I know it’s hard, but if they want to hire you, they will call you. It’s only been a day. Also, If they do want you, and you reach out asking prematurely you might look desperate and lose all your leverage.

Life choices

Yesterday I caught my husband cyber cheating having virtual sex on camera with women. And posting on forums trying to meet up. Annnnd to top it off. Buying only fans content from someone who I use to be close friends with until we moved. Husbands active duty and has us stationed in Georgia. I hate it here. Idk what to do currently 19 weeks pregnant with his first child and due to following him on his PCS I am under employed to leave rn… thoughts?

Sex vent

I’d say me and my partner have sex maybe once a week. But it’s almost always a quickie and I rarely get off, and we only do it when he initiates it. He used to always work to get me off before but never does anymore..
Anytime I try to initiate it, try to kiss him and/or ask for it it’s always “I’m too tired” or “I have a cold”.. we used to have sex all of the time, until I got pregnant then it became rare because it put him off and freaked him out. I have a 4 yo and our son is 7 months old. I feel like we don’t have it as much as I’d like to, which has been brought up plenty of times but there’s been no action. We only have sex on a quick early morning/late night or if we’ve had an argument. It’s really starting to bum me out and feel unwanted and unattractive… I’ve gained a bit of weight since pregnancy that I’m trying to lose and affects my confidence in the bedroom and being naked.
I just don’t know what to do, I wouldn’t make him do anything he didn’t want to but I suppose I just needed to vent. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas? Or is anyone else in the same boat? How could you overcome it?
