Honestly something has got to give, so it'll be either your friends or any "me" time you'd like to have. Ideally you can integrate his/her friends into your group so you can all hang out. Other scenario you neglect your friends a bit or their friends a bit. When you only have three days gotta pick and choose. Not easy, but you make it work for the right person.

You definitely have to have 1 on 1 time with the SO, but that doesn't mean other relationships (friends etc) should suffer. Go out on weekends with your friends And your SO.

I NEED HELP WITH CREDIT SCORE issues: Two months ago my credit score went down by 30 to 40 points due to dad missing credit card payment by a day (i got added to as authorized user on his credit card for me to build credit but now I’m filled with regret). I was devastated by it. This past month I have been making more payments and paid off my aug statement in full thinking it will boost my credit score. But I don’t know why it went down another 10 points. More below:

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.
