Getting into the military helped my feeling of abandonment due to my father's absence. It sounds funny, but being in the military showed me another type of parenthood that I needed.

Is it fair for divorced parents to take up two parent/teacher conference slots? I don’t think it is. I would love to hear your thoughts about this and how it os handled at different schools.

For the single 🏳️‍🌈 fishes: how’ve you managed to stay sane/healthy/happyish throughout this whole thing? The monotony and loneliness is hitting me especially hard during the holidays.

Unsure if my bf and I are incompatible or if I’m not compromising enough. How do you know the difference? He has so many great qualities that I love but also lacks some qualities that I would like to have but idk if I would be giving up on someone that is great for little things.

I have no friends. 28 still single. Everyone is married and at different stages in life. My college friends are drifting apart - talking about kids, engagements etc. Anyone feeling this way?

Other than citizenship, are there any other benefits of having a baby in the US vs in India? My wife and I may not be settling in the US, depending on what we decide over time. With that in mind, my wife is siding towards having the baby in India. When I checked online, I don’t really see any benefit except for the citizenship. Any inputs appreciated :)

Bored as heck in my relationship. We barley talk. Don’t do anything together, just watch TV every night and on weekends…. What do you do with ur partner? Do y’all even have anything to talk about? I hope this isn’t how a long term relationship is supposed to be I cannot spend another 50 years doing this

Just lost out on two potential clients because they said they were concerned about how many clients I have. Currently have approx 250 households ( Ed Jones speak for mailing groups). I never thought that was a lot but now I am reevaluating. Curious as to how many relationships you all manage.

How common are prenups in UK among middle-class? I'm thinking of asking my SO for one but I worry it would be viewed by anyone else as a one foot-out-the-door kinda situation. I'm just trying to be safe with little I have, seeing my friends' marriages.

My mom says to marry a man who loves me, not a man who I love. Happily married wives: thoughts?

Would you consider yourself FIRE if you quit, but your spouse is still working?

Tomorrow is the 1 year anniversary of the passing of my roommates mom. She’s devastated and I know tomorrow will be hard. Any ideas on what I can do to help her through appreciated.

I cheated... we aren’t supposed to do real art in the morning. We watch an art video and discuss in the morning, then in the afternoon we post an instructional video and the kids do a small project at home... I cheated yesterday. I handed out air dry clay and went to town with my 3rd grades.... the kids said it was the most fun art class ever. I will get in trouble for passing stuff out, but I needed it. So did the kids. Best art day all year!

Just found out my boyfriend of 3 months (talking stage was about 6 months before making it official) slept with his ex a couple times while we were talking. After we agreed to be exclusive. Without protection. I’m so crushed 😞

Anyone else just feel sick and tired all the time?

Anyone heard of ECS consulting? Are they any good as an exit op?

So I pulled an all nighter on Monday to do this thing, spend Tuesday like a zombie (and I had 5 calls!!!) then on 6PM the senior reviewing my work came back with comments that I needed to turn “ASAP”. I was so tired I just said I would not because I needed to sleep. I sent them today at 1:30 PM.
Would you get mad if your mid-level/junior did that? I’m all for pulling all-nighters and billing but everything has a limit.

Sales tax question...if I purchase a gym membership in a state that doesn't tax gym fees and then use that membership at the gym's chain in another state that taxes gym memberships or admission fees, is tax due to the 2nd state (does the gym chain owe tax in the 2nd state upon my usage)?

Do you guys feel like Biden is actually the cause of the unemployment rate being down? In 18 states where the rate is down significantly, 15 of them are run by republicans... just saying. Everyone's praising him for bringing the economy back but I'm still unemployed...and the cost of living is more pricey than ever.

For those who have already had their weddings, what advice do you have? Anything you could change?

I’ve been applying to jobs and I feel like my resume needs to be revamped. I’m 4 years post law school and I think I can cut down some of the education specific details etc and focus on the job experience more. Does anyone know of any websites that have good resume layout examples etc for lawyers?

Can anyone refer me in Accenture ?

How different are the physical requirements for men vs women? I'm thinking of the Navy specifically but would welcome insights from any branch of the military, thanks

Hey Everyone ! Many greetings from me

Curious...what did you find to be the most challenging part of bootcamp?

Is the military a well-paid career? I’m asking for my future.

If we analyze our military incursions in the world, we entered Vietnam and Afghanistan, and in neither of them, we have done very well. We have had many casualties, and they say that this is normal in a war. I think we have a problem with military planning, who thinks the same?

What is the most realistically portrayed military story in a movie you’ve seen?

If given the choice, would you join the miltary again?

How do you quiet your mind? I find my mind still races at night and I have trouble sleeping

How do you deal with PTSD from deployment?

Was discharged from the military in my first year due to a dislocated shoulder… life sucks sometimes!

I was so impulsive before the military. Training changed everything for me. What part of your personality did the military change for the better?

I just became a commander. I've always been a good soldier, but it's my turn to lead. I hope I do a good job. Any words of encouragement?

What do you think you would be doing if you hadn't joined the military? I think I would have been a math teacher or a farmer

In many ways, I feel the same as before I enrolled. I don't understand how because I've lived so many things since then, but at the core, I feel like it hasn't affected me. It's weird. Am I missing something?

If anyone here is wondering how to best use their GI Bill... I HIGHLY recommend using the GI Bill comparison tool. Has anyone else here used it??

Many movies romanticize the sacrifice of one soldier and leave them as a hero, but I have always thought that I hate that. Why would someone need to lose his life to be a hero? I believe the mere fact that we put our life at risk in service is enough to be a hero

tt's only my first year of service and I feel inadequate. Can you give me some advice, please?

If you were to choose a career different from the military, which one would you choose?

I feel like I haven't seen the results of our efforts. The Middle East is still a mess. There's a war in Europe we won't take part in. Does anyone else feel this way?

Do people treat you differently when you go out in public wearing your uniform?
