So long story short my partner of 1 1/2 years went basically off the deep end. After almost a year of violence and making it really hard for me to leave due to, emotional, and physical abuse I was able to leave the relationship after the state im in charged her with domestic violence. I have an emergancy protective order against her and have my final hearing next week for a long term one. She really went off the rails this month and has been in and out of jail with the last charges being a few felonies and additional charges. All not being relevent to our relationship and what we had.

Ive been checked out of the relationship for months and her dv arrest against me helped me start my new life. I have a new place to live (with housemates im 33f), im doing great at my job, and have really became super close with my friends which I couldnt do in the relationship.

Ive been on one date so far with a woman who was great. Im just questioning myself. Im still in the midst of dealing with the relationship fall out. I imagine I should be feeling grief over the failed relationship but I just dont and feel so disconnected.

Im in therapy and my therapist is so proud I went out to have a coffee date but im feeling like a walking red flag for someone trying to date.

Im not looking to jump into a relationship but I feel conflicted about feeling ready but also having all of this baggage over my head.

Advice?

Hi everyone,

I’d really appreciate honest feedback on my Shopify store: https://evernorthdesign.com/

I started Evernorth Design in March. It’s an Alaska-based apparel and accessories brand inspired by nature, slow living, botanical artwork, and elevated everyday pieces.

I’ve had a few sales so far, but I’m still very early and trying to figure out what might be holding the store back before I spend more time or money trying to drive traffic.

I’d especially love feedback on:

• Does the brand feel clear within the first few seconds?
• Does the homepage make you want to keep browsing?
• Do the product pages feel trustworthy enough to buy from? (Working on better descriptions)
• Is the pricing reasonable for the brand/product type?
• Does the site feel polished on mobile?
• Are the product photos/mockups strong enough? (Still working on this)
• Is anything confusing, missing, or making the store feel less credible?
• Would you buy from this site? If not, what would stop you?

I’m not looking for paid services or DMs — just honest feedback from other store owners/customers. I’m totally open to blunt critique. I’d rather know what needs work now than keep guessing.
