Hey everyone…

I guess this is where I need to let some of my pain out.

I’ve been living with herpes for a while now, something I got from my ex‑husband. It was hard to accept at first, but with time you learn to live with it.

Still, I feel trapped sometimes, like my love life is completely ruined.

I hate that I accepted him knowing he had it, and I hate that he passed it on to me.

Is there anyone here who has found happiness after this? Anyone who’s married or in a healthy relationship despite it?

I was just remembering the times I used to stand in front of my bathroom mirror and sing my heart out, or stay in my bedroom dancing all day to my favourite music. No internet, no distractions, just feeling life and living it to the fullest.

I do miss those days. I still do it now, but this time with my kids.

Hey single mothers,

How is everyone doing today?

Who here does any sport, and how important is it for you?

I personally do jumping rope. I started about a year ago, probably because I’ve always loved boxing. That’s how I got into jump rope, and since then I’ve been loving it.

I started with 50 jumps, then gradually increased to 100, then 200. Now I can reach 500 jumps in about 10 minutes, with small breaks every 100 jumps.

My new challenge is 1,000 jumps a day for a month.

I truly believe sport is important for the mindset. And yes, there will be days where you feel like doing nothing — it’s normal, especially for us. But I really encourage you to move your body, even if it’s just a daily walk or something simple.

Just wanted to share and motivate ♥️

Our journey continues 💪🏻
