Anyone from Minneapolis over 55, I am 56, divorced, stable and kids grown up. Prefer White/Desi/ghanaian man

I have a friend who lives inside my head. Every time I think of doing something important, be it a career move, who I date, where I live, I think: what will he think of that? I’m basing so much of what I do off how he will perceive it. I try to fight and ignore it but it’s agonizing and I don’t know how to let it go. We don’t even live in the same country anymore and don’t speak regularly, but we were close throughout high school and college.

Asking for a friend: is a relationship with an AI-based Replika app cheating? For my friend, Replika has been helpful for mental health discussions, but also role play.

Does anyone in NYC have a chef who comes to their house to cook for the week? We want healthy food but are limited in time due to two demanding jobs and a toddler.

Before I get over my crush I wanna punch him in the face because I didn’t go out of my way to find him, he found me and caused the pain that’s been hard to get over. It was not my fault 😞 stuck between losing a friend, telling him how I feel or ignore him forever.

What does respecting your partner’s wishes mean? Does it mean I have to comply with whatever they want?

Went to a concert with my gf and it started at 8 and I suggested going at 9 because they always have an opening show. We argued and she said I have to respect her & it left me offended bc I do respect her

This morning, my apt was having a free coffee event and she wanted to stop by before leaving for work & there was a short wait that made her late and blamed it on me for not waking up contd

The sudden death of a friend has made me realize that my obsession with goals has caused me to miss out on so much of my life. How can I learn to refocus and make time for the people in my life?

I've been avoiding breaking up with someone (I've been dating off and on for a year) for the past few weeks because I can't decide the best way to do it. We're not compatible long-term. He's not seeing anyone else and I've told him I'm seeing other people but he's starting to have relationship expectations for me since we reconnected a few months ago. Any tips for having the conversation? I'd prefer to do it via text but I know people say it's not appropriate and it should be over the phone.

How did you know you had met the one before proposing / getting married? (How long into the relationship was it?)

Alright it’s been 21 days of no contact. Fastest and longest few weeks since lockdown 😞 I know it’s not an exact science but I’m curious on the statistics…who’s heard from their ex after a breakup and how long after?

East Asian, 32, gay male with conservative parents. Still haven’t come out to them, and feel behind compared to my white American peers who have come out much earlier one and have super accepting parents. They still keep on pushing a girlfriend on me and just told me gay people are disgusting. I love them and they love me, but I’m not sure how to deal anymore.

I am overly stressed that my parents are visiting and staying with me for 5 weeks. Paid them for a cruise but still have 4 weeks. I am dreaded to live with them 4 weeks without social engagement cont'

I’m posting this here instead of my usual Big Law bowl because I’m guessing there are people here who will understand. I just need to vent. I am married to a wonderful man who has a young son. My husband is the kindest, most patient and supportive man I’ve ever met other than my dear late grandfather. He is saintly. But the chaos that surrounds him hurts me. I am the primary breadwinner and far out earn my husband and my stepson’s bio mom. I have always put pressure on myself to succeed (Cont.)

Traveled for the first time this week since COVID and got the dreaded “do you have kids?” question at team dinner. Him-“do you have kids?” Me- “No, I don’t.” Him-“Oh good! That’s the right choice!!” Me (awkwardly)- “I still have time… I’m not even 30 yet!” (Team member who knows about our 3 month and 6 month miscarriages looking on with THE saddest face) Ughhhh. He had absolutely no idea and meant well since everyone was talking about their kids but gosh…I wish this didn’t have to be a thing😩

Boyfriend got off the phone when the argument was his fault. Thinking about being the bigger person and calling him to resolve it, but realized I’m the one who always calls back and apologizes first. I want him to but also don’t want this to drag on. Thoughts?

I don't have any friends in banglore. It is hard for me to find friends cause i am always that aloof kid who in addition is not straight so can't even bond with my teammates. How do people live like this. Even my flatmates don't talk . : (

How to meet new friends! Seriously how???

Does anyone of good dating app reccos for seniors? My gramps is 85 and is ready to “get back out there.” My grandma passed away last year and Covid has been particularly lonely for him. He’s fairly good at technology, he’s my favorite person to snapchat and FaceTime, but we’re looking for something very easy to use. Thanks ❤️

As cops, how do you handle those kids who jump the subway turnstile?

I hate that it takes me being sick on the couch for a weekend to realize I need to chill TF out and take care of Me first.

Advice for getting over feelings of jealousy? Also related for me, how can I learn to be indifferent to people I don’t like… rather than actively dislike them? I feel jealous feelings only when it’s someone I don’t like. I want to get over both feelings… learn to be truly indifferent to others. I try to tell myself I shouldn’t care, but so far I am yet to feel it. On the inside I do know it bothers me.

Does anyone else here do non-profit consulting or volunteering on top of their full-time job? How are you balancing the two? Could use some advice or help. Thanks!
