8 years together, one married. In our 30’s.

I find my husband physically attractive but am not passionate about him or do not feel “pulled” towards him. Is this normal?

Anyone married but still have feelings about your ex? Like you love your SO but still have lingering feelings?

It’s my birthday in a few minutes. 2021 has been a terrible year for me. My marriage ended. It wasn’t a bad end though. We are still close, just not romantic partners anymore. The very first dog I ever had died and I couldn’t go see her because of the quarantine. I didn’t get a promotion that I more than deserved. I don’t think I get paid well. Most of my friends moved out of the city and I’m having to meet new people at 32. I love my job but it’s incredibly stressful. I’m terribly lonely.

How you do you get over trust issues from a previous ex and trust your current SO? My ex cheated on my for months and I caught her by going through her phone and I find myself fighting that urge to go through my current SO’s phone even though I have no reason to.

How do you know if your friendship has gone beyond friendship and it is something different?

Is it bad to spend time with your SO every weekend? We’re both busy during the week so weekends are the only time we get

Was back in the office for the first time since Covid. It’s been really nice seeing everyone again and rekindling old relationships but something about being back just feels off to me.
Covid changed a lot and it’ll be tough to go back to the old ways but it all just feels so different. Idk if I’m in culture shock or this just isn’t for me anymore. Has anyone else felt this?

How do you pay your parents back for everything they’ve done for you if you were fortunate enough that they could support you through life? School, mental break downs, etc. I’m just starting my career and don’t have much $$ saved yet but I feel like they are the ones who need support now. And how do you pay it forward?

I’m irritated with my friend and myself. She tested positive for covid and I likely have it. She had symptoms the day she saw me (scratchy throat, body ache) & rather than cancel or let me know she had symptoms of something - she was quiet about it and met up with me anyways. Now I have the same symptoms (scratchy throat & body aches) & will likely have to quarantine for 2 weeks. I will get tested but boy am I irritated. Ive been social distancing this entire time and it only takes one person to

I showed up to the airport high asf after smoking a bong and eating 100mg of edibles my friend gave me for the first time in my life AMA

It’s been asked before whether it’s worth it to pay (~$150) to upgrade a 3 hr flight. I generally agree it is not. But what if your two tweenagers bicker nonstop and are complete and total jerks to you all the time and your spouse chooses the “they’ll grow out of it” approach to things so basically you just want 3 hours of alone time. Then is it worth it?

(Note, in this scenario, they are all entirely too naive to realize it isn’t a system comped upgrade.)

Anyone in Boston? Trying to find friends that I can relate to more than just by age

Working moms in Seattle… could you use a moms night out? Like leave kids with partner on a Friday night, have vent/rant session with some fellow moms, go to a rooftop bar, or Sunday morning pedicure type of hangout? If so, tell me how I can meet you?! Is there a “moms go out” club? Seattle freeze is getting to me!

My wife's an artist and I'm an engineer, so I guess opposites really do attract sometimes

Told my SO I'm only ok with them hanging out with a questionable individual in a group setting but I secretly wish this person was completely cut out. They're the definition of a hot mess that has burned bridges with all mutual friends. No boundaries. I don't believe there's cheating but I am very uncomfortable with the person (zero trust) and my SO's naivete who was also defensive. We talked it out but now I feel like I have my hand ready on a rip cord for our relationship after this red flag.

My wife and I recently moved to a larger space and agreed to have separate bedrooms. The reasoning is that we keep odd hours due to our jobs and we disturb each other coming and going. I was super against this at first and told her it might portend the end of a 10 year relationship.

One month later and this might be the best decision we ever made, I love having my own space and being able stay up late without worrying about disturbing my partner. Any of you guys try this arrangement?

SO wants to “build their personal brand” online instead of trying to look for a better job or taking courses/certs. Want to be supportive but nervous about the future

Is anyone else sick of being with their spouse 24 hours a day yet? Thank God retirement is a long way off.

Teaching Autistic Support via Zoom is so difficult. The behaviors are way worse and there is next to nothing I can do to help my students parents.

I’m in a career slump. For the past 5 years I’ve done AutoCAD drafting, it’s been something my mother brags about to everyone but I’ve never felt happy with it. I want to create worlds, characters and stories. Video games have always been a huge part of my life but I don’t know how to pursue that while being able to pay my bills.

Hi, I'm planning to start a software agency (solo or 2 person initially) while working full-time in a company. Any advice you could give me? Or, is there any problem with this?

Thanks in advance!

Hi fishes!.. I am a Test engineer in a mindtree pvt. ltd. Mindtree gives me the project of cisco which is based on the Networking(switch testing). I didn't have much experience in networking or I don't like the Networking testing. I have one year of experience in automation testing with Selenium java WebDriver, TestNG, cucumber bdd framework. I am comfortable in these things not in networking. I talked to my HR and Manger for changing the project but the didn't change.

My boyfriend and I already live together (I moved into his 1BR apartment this year), and we’re excited to get a new place together in early 2023. Any practical tips on how to decide what furniture to keep vs. replace? We’re still renting, so I’m inclined to just keep what we have. What pieces are worth buying new now vs. holding off until we have a more permanent place?

Is it true that a guy never notices another guy but notices all the girls? My boyfriend and I just had a discussion about how he does not notice any guys in the gym but notices all the girls. When I tried to put forward my argument saying I notice both guys and girls so it should be the same case for him. He said it’s not the same for the guys. Can I get any male opinion on this or even female if they have experienced something similar in their relationship? Thanks!

GF and I are having major issues stemming around my family not liking her. Got into a major fight Friday and haven't spoken since. She said she's having doubts and questioning the whole relationship. Today's our one year...what can I possibly say. Don't know what she's expecting

Guy I am dating for last 3 months asked me to attend Mother’s Day lunch/dinner with his whole family. I haven’t met any one of them on a 1-1. While I am somewhat comfortable with him, I am an introvert and don’t like to be around groups of people. We usually spend a weekend night together. However, after I gently said no and told him I d feel comfy to first meet his family members 1-1, he seemed to be a little aloof and left early. I like the guy a lot. We aren’t at the typical marriageable age

My SO had a career change, went back to school, and just started with his new job. He is struggling a bit and is very stressed out. What can I do to help?

I met a couple girls through a friend and they’re both really smart and fun to be with. I’ve been thinking about getting back in the dating scene but don’t know which one to ask out. They’re both friends so I can’t really try the other if one doesn’t work out. Thoughts?

I’m breaking up with my GF of 3 years today.. going to be a tough one.

If someone ghosts you but you still have an article of their clothing, and they never asked for it back, should you just donate it?

Where are single men looking for single ladies these days? Tinder/hinge and other swipe apps seems to be flooded by onlyfan-ers which is fine (you do you boo) but not something i am looking for in a potential partner.

Would you invite your past hookup in your friend group to your wedding? Fiancé wants to invite this guy from her grad school friend group and they used to hook up. I am opposed because I don’t like him and he never respected me (made me feel invisible when fiancé and I first dated and is still a prick to me). Fiancé thinks it’s harsh if we just leave him out while inviting the rest of her friend group

I am generally uncomfortable when I’m around my mother-in-law’s husband.

While he is overall a decent guy, his anger issues, yelling at his wife for the slightest issue, and insulting nature makes me uncomfortable and triggers my own anger due to his blatant disrespect for just about everyone around him.

My mother-in-law says he’s worked on things, but it’s been 10 years of this and I’m not sure I want such behavior around my wife and our kids since we’re trying to conceive soon (cont).

How do I politely hint at a guy I have just started seeing that he is moving to fast? We have only been seeing each other for a couple of weeks and not had any sort of exclusiveness discussions or anything but he is texting and expecting replies multiple times a day (I am currently on vacation away from the city we both live in), planning trips together in several months, letting me know how much he likes and misses me several times a day. I like him but I am starting to feel very overwhelmed.

Tired of dating... Just looking for a husband at this point. Anyone interested? 👀 I'm a very fit, very smart, 30F.

Dating a girl - been going great. Suddenly she is saying there’s too much going on in her life (her mum is ill, doing dental training) to go to the next level, but that I’m a great guy anyone would be lucky to bag etc. At the same time she says she wants to stay in touch. I said for her to tell me if she’s not interested and we can leave it - she told me she is interested but the timing is wrong. I said ok let’s leave it - she said it’s my choice (despite inertia from her).what to make of this?
