Checking in. Overwhelming anxiety over letting my supposed to be future partner know that itā€™s just not going to work. Heā€™s unrealistic in his expectations. In his version of the partnership agreement, Iā€™m stuck doing all the work and he just profits off it. Iā€™m not doing that shit again. He made a very small investment, which I will tell him Iā€™ll pay back. Literally like only $6,000 and that is the only thing heā€™s put into it. Iā€™ve invested way more, PLUS 14+ hour days for two years of sweat equity. We only meet once per month and this month he changed the time, fine, but when I walked in for our meeting he goes ā€œok if we cut this to 30 minutesā€ and then had nothing prepared. I brought up the partnership which is supposed to be finalized in the next 4 months and he said he has to talk to his little CEO mastermind group to make sure HEā€™S covered. Dude is a freaking millionaire and Iā€™m starving to death. Fuck you dude, Iā€™m tired of being taken advantage of because Iā€™m overly loyal. I just got out of another one sided partnership a few years ago and swore I would never have a partner again, yet here I am. Sorry to babble, but I have such a fear of people not liking me that I do stupid shit like this. If I went through with this, he would get even more wealthy and I would struggle for another five years.

This resonates for me, as it is similar to some situations my adult daughter has created for herself. You ARE worthy of achieving your goals and dreams. Do what you need to make them reality and hold onto your strong self in the process.

Hey guys day 42 here!!
I missed 2 check ins because I was NOT in a good mood at all! I was battling the wine monster, sick, moody, irritatable crying for no reason. Yesterday I hid in my room and made everyone else watch the baby because I couldnt stand the sound of certain peoples voices. I thought, this must be PAWS?.. I did have a tiny moment of happiness when I stuffed my face with 5 reeses peanut butter cupsā€¦
Then this morning I started my period!! Turns out it was PMS. So I am good now. I hope. Glad I didnt cave. I remember telling my Fiance I was going to start drinking again. SO glad I didnt. Moving onā€¦ worst PMS of my life.

I know him very well, he honestly thinks heā€™s being fair. Heā€™s extremely sensitive and will take this very personally. However, he will appreciate me reimbursing him for his investement in my software.

The money alone was sickening. After week I seem to have extra 150 dollars on me. Am 60 now. Was sober for 14 years. From 32-46. Than I thought I could casually drink again. Please learn by my mistake. It can never happen.
