Black F 🐠 new to the states and I just got my first brush with racism from 2 white elderly (50+) women! And might I just say wow! I feel so much for all non-white people that have lived here in NY and US at large. Q1 - How do you (non-white) cope with this?
I did see a full shift in their mannerism/retort when I responded with a European accent. Q2 - Why would an accent play a part in how one is treated racially?

My GF and I are dating for 2.5 yrs , She met an office colleague (he has a GF) recently who she initiated a friendship with. I feel that they interact a lot and I'm a little worried of her getting too close to him. A day ago she asked him for lunch and they were out for almost 4-5 hrs. When I expressed how I felt she keeps saying there's nothing going on. I feel that when start to get emotionally close to some other guy than SO then it's not a good sign in relationship. Am I overthinking? contd.

So I just recently got into dating after a break up 3 months ago. I joined some dating apps and have been getting quite a few matches. I’ve never dated anyone like to a point of going on traditional dates. Basically, I have no clue what to do on a date once i have one planned. Like I’ve been on a few and it’s been just talking but I guess I have no clue what to do after. I’m probably just rambling at this point but basically I need advice on actual dates and how to feel it out and what to do. Ty

Do you still implement reference checks (on top of background checks)? I’m not convinced of the value add to the selection process and it takes a lot of time and resources

Sad post, in need of some support **** my partner and i tried for 1 year to conceive naturally, only to have a miscarriage and start our IVF journey. 1 year into that - we had 5 healthy PGT-A and PGT-M tested embryos and were hopeful to implant. Implantation 1 just failed. We lost 20% of our chances that took 1 year to build. And tine just keeps ticking

If I failed my background Check can a employer still hire me if they choose to?

I hate whoever invented meetings before 10am.... jeez, give me time to start my brain.

What’s your favorite compliment to receive? I love it when people call me exotic.

Getting over heartbreak and having a full time job is torture lol. My boyfriend and I just broke up after almost a year of being together. It was such a beautiful relationship but ultimately he just didn’t love me. I love him so much. My mind knows that I deserve reciprocal love and I’m worthy, but I feel physically ill. My body hurts, my stomach is in knots, my head hurts. How is it that I have to mend a broken heart but also meet my billable hours lmao

Probably the least racy confession on here but I really liked Windows 8 and I'm sad there's nothing like it anymore

Is there a special place in hell for recruitment consultants?

Slowly coming to the realization that I’ll be single forever for personal reasons - 40 M no kids. Trying to figure out how to take care of myself in my 60s-90s and what to do now to be as self sufficient as possible. Any advice would be welcomed.

girls can't you agree..nothing feels better than getting glammed up and listening to music after taking a bunch of selfies?

Been with my GF since college and we recently hit the 4 year mark. 1-2 years into our relationship I found out she had instances of micro-cheating (flirting with guys, talking to ex’s etc - but nothing physical) and we addressed it. To her credit and my knowledge, she’s been apologetic and great at respecting boundaries since, but I still feel the pain from her actions years ago (and have talked to her about it). Feeling lost about whether to just leave or to try and work things out

Gas is 5.30 in California right now. This is insane. Thanks Pootain.

How is everyone planning their family vacations? Specially looking for people with kids. I have 2 kids and a family vacation for 4 people for a week easily comes to a min of 5k -6k (flight, car, hotel, eating out every day, entertainment tickets) and if we end up taking 2-3 vacations per year, it costs about 15-20k. This feels like a lot, or is everyone spending this much?

What do consultants do? I see Consultant titles pop up on here all the time and wonder what do y’all do? What are you consulting on? Seems interesting but i I googled and am still confused.

I recently applied to graduate school for a Master’s at my old undergraduate college and a prestigious name-brand school. I kind of find it hilarious that the name brand-school accepted me while my old college rejected me. I didn’t have the most stellar grades and I had a lot of help in my essays but regardless I still found it funny at the end I would be attending the name-brand school and my old college rejected me.

Just found out that my favorite aunt, who claimed I was her “favorite” niece, chose to leave all her valuables to her other two nieces who never visited or called her once in the last ten years. My aunt passed away suffering from cancer last year and didn’t have her own kids. I was there by her side throughout her battle. I still wish I had done more, made her life easier. I probably sound petty, but a part of me is forcing me to re-evaluate every interaction I ever had with her.

I wish I could find a guy who is as crazy about me as I am about him. I always meet guys that like me but I feel lukewarm about them or I like them but they don’t like me. Ugh. Why is life so difficult?

Not a confession, for myself at least but need advise. For those who have been divorced when did you know you couldn’t fix the relationship?

I wanna be distracted from .. whatever admin work I am doing now. How was everyone’s day?

Therapy Scheduling Issues - I love my therapist but they are not able to schedule sessions on the weekend or Friday evening and I’ve missed 7/10 last sessions scheduled due to last minute work stuff. I’m sad I’m losing a great therapist. Should I try to make it work or find someone with more scheduling flexibility?
