Anyone else avoid going to India because everyone from your in laws side want to just come meet you from different city when all you want is some space and relax and spend time with your own family.

A guy who is claiming to be in love with me (a black woman and immigrant), is a conservative (pro-trump, anti-gun laws, denies that there is racism etc). Are those red flags to make me cut him off?

Does anyone have a good relationship with their CDs beyond purely transactional work related communications?

I’ve been in the industry for 4 years and I do a good job at work but it’s deflating when I work super hard and have never had much of a relationship with my higher ups. Is this something that was/is common?

My family/friends ask me for store discounts all the time. It's really uncomfortable to say no, but I have to. Any tips on how to handle these conversations?

Who is pumped to start bschool this summer?

Can straight guys and girls every just be friends? Every straight guy friend I have ever had has either expressed romantic or sexual interest at least once in our friendship or vice versa.

I lie to my girlfriend every time we make plans — I always tell her to be ready an hour before I want her to be and she’s still normally running 15-30 minutes late

I've been working remotely for the past two years, and it's been great. I love working from home and being able to watch my kids grow up through their eyes as they play around me. But sometimes, when you're in this kind of situation, it's hard to know what to talk about with your coworkers.

I’m a psychologist currently living in a mid tier town that honestly has felt so toxic. I’ve made gay friends, but most are toxic to the point that my best friend said I need to remove myself from the community.
I am honestly ready to move away because I miss enjoying people like I did in Telluride, Denver, London & NYC where meeting and making friend groups felt easy & natural.
Here, I literally can not find decent friends that even reach out. 🫦

What's your go-to work music? Or do you work better in complete silence? I can't work in silence without my brain getting loud, so I listen to house music or jazz while I work. My sister (who also has ADHD) can't get anything done unless it's dead silent. Just wondering what works for others

Conduct annual performance reviews with your kids and let them know their status in the family is at stake. There’s no feeling in the world that compares to seeing an 8 year old kid on a PIP turn it around and earn an invitation to come back next year.

Fam need advice.. I’m struggling in my rl lately. My gf and I met virtually on social media and have been together for almost a year. Things are great normally, but whenever there comes a bit spark of argument, my gf just turned into someone else, very emotional every time, keeping this it’s all your fault attitude… She tends to go to extremes and often times went too much, e.g., she bent (hurts a lot atm but fingers ok) my fingers as part of couple fun fights (it started with her pinching me)…

Looking for some perspective: we just got a brand new $2,000 glass top 78" dining table. I asked my husband to please use a table cloth when he uses that table for d&d with his friends to avoid scratches and the loud dice on the table. He got upset that I "don't let him enjoy our stuff," that I "hate the sound of him having fun," and he says I am being unreasonable. From my perspective, I just want to preserve this expensive piece of furniture that we both love. Am I being unreasonable?

Would anyone want to hang out? 23F and looking for more friends

Have you ever represented family? Obviously not for actual work but outside of it? My almost brother in law could use a little legal help and asked me if I had extra time. I do, and the issue isn't a big one (settling things with his ex-wife) but is this dangerous territory to be walking into? I've heard things can get sticky if you rep family.
