Recently I had an unpleasant conversation with my girlfriend that influenced me a lot. We talked about my financial conditions and stability, and she told me a lot of unpleasant things. If she hadn’t told me that I wouldn’t have thought about some things that much, and I can’t even say was it a good dialogue or bad, before this dialogue I had been searching for a job for more than one week, She didn’t know that. And she said that I was just sitting all the time without any actions. And she said that I should have started searching for a job earlier. It was really sad, it offended me a lot because I know that I put a lot of efforts into this thing. However, I didn’t really share my thoughts and feelings with her. It was pointless at this point. We were talking online on Zoom meeting. And this conversation had such a huge impact on me, because I didn’t anticipate her to say all these words. and i thought she would react more calmly and she would support me because she like i don’t know i thought she would ask me about these jobs like she would ask something like did you i don’t know send your back your CV to the companies. However, instead of this, she just started saying that I hadn’t done.

Recently I had an unpleasant conversation with my girlfriend that influenced me a lot. We talked about my financial conditions and stability, and she told me a lot of unpleasant things. If she hadn't told me that, I wouldn't have thought about some things that much, and I can't even say whether it was a good dialogue or bad. Before this dialogue, I had been searching for a job for more than one week. She didn't know that. And she said that I was just sitting all the time without any actions. And she said that I should have started searching for a job earlier. It was really sad; it offended me a lot because I know that I put a lot of effort into this thing. However, I didn't really share my thoughts and feelings with her. It was pointless at that point. We were talking online on a Zoom meeting. And this conversation had such a huge impact on me because I didn't anticipate her to say all these words. And I thought she would react more calmly and she would support me because she, like, I don't know, I thought she would ask me about these jobs, like she would ask something like, did you, I don't know, send your CV to the companies. However, instead of this, she just started saying that I hadn't done.
