If you have a gender fluid friend, does that mean you have multiple friends?

Too many. I'd like more same-gender friends.

No! I need more male friends bc I'm always hanging out with my girls and none of us have many guy friends. We are all single so if there's s new upstanding guy in the group, someone should date him

Umm, sure...but give some context as to why you're asking?

EY3 for the win 😂

Not sure how to define "enough" but have only acquaintances of the opposite gender, not close friends

No.

Maybe if you had a gender fluid friend with multiple personality disorder

^ same -.-

I'm a guy and pretty much all my friends are girls. I need to work on that

My first therapy appointment tomorrow! I’ve never dealt with depression before having my second kid and my PPD was/is rough! Filling out the intake form I basically had to list out all the things I’ve dealt with - rape, mom issues, death in family during pandemic, kid hit by car, ppd, and a slew of over things… looking forward to working through these things over time, whatever that might look like.

So, I knew ahead of time that I would be working Thanksgiving weekend, but I just got my schedule for December and it looks like I'm going to miss Christmas as well.

Hi, I am a single-parent with a 9 year old daughter. Is anyone else dealing with same gender sleepovers with sexual exploration occurring? Exploring as in my daughter says outright “I am going to kiss you,” to her bestie before bed. Then after 15 minutes of giggling in bed I go to tell them to be quiet and see my daughter’s bestie is showing her buttcheeks to my daughter. To top it off they start trying to tell me they are laughing because they are reading “belly laugh books for kids”. Help.

I (36F) am married to another woman (34F) and we have a baby (5moF). We split all childcare, cleaning, meal prep, errands etc fairly evenly and it works well. Maybe she cooks more than I do bc she likes it, and I clean more bc I need to have a clean house. My friend (35F) recently took a business trip and literally put a binder together with instructions for her husband re: daycare drop off and pick up, what to feed the kids, when to take out the trash and so on.

I am planning to leave him but I am hesitant because I am afraid this would negatively impact my son more, not having a father figure around much.... not the first time, my husband promises multiple time that at least he would control his anger in front of kid but never Lee up the promise...sometimes he would even throw stuff (not at me and my child)...
