Do you share the details of why you broke up with someone with your close friends? Or do you just keep it to yourself to avoid airing dirty laundry?

Yes of course I overshare - this girl doesn’t know how to keep her mouth shut.

Yes because it helps with talking things through. Otherwise I would bottle it up and it would drive me crazy. Plus they are my close friends for a reason- I trust them and value their support

Keep it to myself. I really don’t see the point in sharing it. Friends are respectful of you not wanting to talk about it. Unless it directly involved them, like SO not getting along with childhood best friend

I told a handful of people and now I regret it.

I just realize that its unnecessary, and I didn't tell them because I wanted to make my ex look bad, I told them because it impacted them in some way or they already knew things weren't great. But i guess no one needs to know. So now I feel bad.

I give my friends the 10,000 ft overview answer. I don't give them the details about all the fights/arguments/etc. That's due to me wanting to project that everything's fine, but my friends are fairly similar in that way.

Yea... I share close to everything with my best friend, she’s non-judgmental and knows I sometimes need to vent and doesnt think of me or the person Im venting about differently.. 🙌

Couple close friends know everything. I also eventually tell the not so close friends because if there’s something to hide, people gossip. Who cares who knows about the reasons, they were legit, end of story.

I had given Accenture interview on 5th March and on the same day got an email that I cleared the round then salary discussion also happened. But then they didn't release the offer. In the portal status went to " owing to business reasons we foresee some delay in processing your candidature". Also then after multiple followups got an update from HR that they don't have any requirements for the position. Now it's been more than a month what should I do ? Any suggestions would definitely help.

Currently going through some negations on an internal role. I’m currently at 88k and they offered me 100k for a position that requires a lot more work.

They stated 120k+ is extremely high for that role. What do you guys think? Playing the game?

I moved back in with my parents in August, and my mom and stepfather have demanded monthly rent. They are in no way poor at this moment in time, and in my opinion it’s f*cked up to demand your child pay rent. I bought a VR headset a couple weeks back and my mom increased the rent because “I can afford it.” Is this normal? I honestly feel used. Fwiw I’ve worked since I was 13, and hustled my entire life.

Need advice. My sister is in a DV relationship. I haven’t seen her in over a decade. A friend reached out and let me know she was in trouble. I traveled from another city to check in on her and she was not at her house. I found out that she and her soon to be ex are in a secluded lake house and I don’t know the location of said vacation home. I feel like I need to do a wellness check on her but I’m not sure how to proceed. Any advice fellow Fishies?
