Feeling torn usually means both sides hold something you care about
If one option were clearly better, it probably wouldn’t be this hard. Feeling torn means each choice has something you don’t want to lose, and that you take your own life seriously. Being afraid of choosing wrong or regretting it later is normal. Often there is no perfectly right answer, only a choice the person you are right now can live with, and some decisions genuinely need more time.
In the Seaside Loft, let your mind rest for a moment
Outside the Seaside Loft window is the sea, with waves rolling in and drawing back, never rushing you and never deciding for you. Write each option on one line of a bedside note, then one more line: if I didn’t have to think about what anyone else would say, what would I really want? Fold it away so it stays only on your device. You can also give yourself a gentle deadline, and until that day comes, simply get a good night’s sleep. If this kind of indecision keeps you from sleeping, stops you from getting anything done, or comes with constant anxiety, it may help to talk with someone you trust or a professional.
No account, no name, and you can leave whenever you like.
