Does anyone else get crap from their significant other for having to work late? She always thinks I am cheating on her even when I give her plenty of warning when I will be working late.

Are there any well-off suburbs around Chicago where there's a significant amount of black or mixed race people? Significant meaning 40-50%+. I've seen a lot of nice black suburbs in southern and eastern cities but less in the midwest. In an interracial relationship and want to get an idea if there are any suburbs where our kids would feel represented or if we'll need to move down south for that.

What to do in New England for Memorial Day weekend with family (6adults)

My wife is pregnant with a girl. We’re going over names. I suggested Eleven.

I’m about to go on vacation abroad for almost 2 weeks, my first extended vacation since pre-pandemic! But I just realized I have not been away from my dog for more than 4 days since I adopted him in 2020, and we have not been apart from each other since a bad breakup a couple months ago. I’m so sad to leave him and not sure I want to go anymore, even though I was an avid traveler with wanderlust pre-pandemic. :(

I am so, so sad right now. I can’t call any of my friends because of the time zone but truthfully i don’t want to have to explain or face the judgement either. I can’t stop crying. I’m so sad, and I know eventually I’ll be ok but this moment feels like the lowest point ever. I hate myself so much for being so sad and that’s the last thing I need. I wish I could have a hug and for someone to tell me I’m fine and that I’ll be ok

My husband never reads and wants to start reading as a new hobby. What is a good book that you would recommend for a 40 year old man? Not self help books, but maybe something with action. I think he would like the Bourne series, but he saw all the movies so he's not interested, but something similar.

How are all the lovely ladies doing today?! It's one of those days for me... Trying very hard with every breath to not check his profile and see what he's up to...
He broke up with me almost 2 months ago and it's just been death.
Some days very good and busy and powering through. Other days are hell. Pure hell

Seeing local parents reacting to the public school lottery results in DC, got me super nervous about when it’s my kids turn.

I hate the idea of having so little control.

My husband and I are both very ready to start a family. For those who have finished their PhD while pregnant or with a young child, do you have any regrets?

Am I gonna be alone forever?! I’ve been in a handful of long term relationships. Some great and we ended as friends, some ended crappy. But all in all I do have some relationship experience. But after this last break up, I’m starting to get a little hopeless..(34yo lesbian here)

3 months post breakup… I seemed to be healing well and all the sudden this week I took a huge step back and feel heartbroken all over again. For context I was in a 4 year relationship including 1 year engaged and had to call my wedding off due to his infidelity. How can I shake this? 😔

My husband literally abandoned us about 4 years ago. I’ve waited and prayed for him to come back, but recently, I’ve been feeling like it’s time to move on. *Cont’d

Working as a hotel maid isn't bad but my husband wanted to surprise me with a romantic getaway and I just feel like I'm at work, he told me I don't need to make the bed but it's so hard to relax with it like this! hahah

Hi fishes,
I have recently joined a product based startup and I'm unable to do tasks in the timely manner. I used to be productive before coming here and used to complete all the tasks before time. There is a lot of job insecurities coming in my mind, also there's a huge lifestyle change coming up in 4-5 months I'm getting married. Not sure how to deal with everything and expenses. What to do? All advices are welcome. Thanks

Asking my friend to be one of my bridesmaids this weekend. Doing the others around Christmas. Should I have her wait until everyone has been asked before she posts on social media? Kinda seems like a weird rule unless that’s the norm now.

I feel like being a consultant has made my standards for finding a significant other go up astronomically lol now I expect them to be a similar standard as my coworkers which are smart, pretty, social and also same level of religiousness as me. I understand why everyone struggles to find an SO now

Is anyone else hoping for an insane blizzard to hit mid-next week so they have an excuse not to drive downstate to spend Thanksgiving with their extended family? Some of my family's FB posts since last week's elections tell me it's going to be a long holiday weekend.

Last year I told my class about my partner and it was the best decision ever made. My admins, students, and parents were supportive and had no affect at all. I can’t wait to share my loved ones each year and how I joined a Varsity Gay League Kickball team as well. I even have parents interested in creating a team. So thankful for the community I teach in❤️

How to deal with quarter life crisis?

Most of us joined their first job after college with very high hopes (Like : Yeaah my job, I'mma be solving real world problems now).
Most of our jobs turned out to be not so impactful. (like rudimentary shoveling data into neat piles of PPT).
And we have to do this for life.
I can't seem to shake of the feeling completely even after almost 3 years into working.

I am a career nanny who previously owned and operated her own nanny referral agency in Hawaii for five years...then Covid came along and wiped it right out of business since March 2020.

I'm not looking to go 20 years backwards-I no longer want to be the nanny and work that hard however nothing interests me! I really don't want to go back to school and thousands of dollars in loans etc. etc.

How many phone interviews did you have before the loop?

My daughter joined a large company and was told she could add her domestic partner onto her benefits. Now they are saying she has to file affidavit for common law marriage. Her state does not recognize common law marriages. Can they offer the benefit to only those that live in a state that recognizes common law marriages? Seems discriminatory to me.

Folks, you’ve all heard the news. Is your application/loop/offer impacted by the hiring freeze? Give us a shout in the replies. Keeping fingers crossed for everyone!
