Girlfriend and I flew in to see her dad who is in the hospital today after surgery. She is visiting him in the hospital, and I am alone in her parents home. Is it inconsiderate if I go out with some friends who I know live here?

I just want a peaceful, consistent, not overly exciting life with someone that involves cuddling and naps. Is that too boring? I don't care about being stimulated mentally, get enough of that at work.

Anyone else have parents that love them but give terrible advice? Every time I've followed it, I've been miserable, unsuccessful, missed glorious opportunities or been worse off for the sacrifice. My sibling on the other hand does what he wants and is now super successful and living the life for it.
I regret being the obedient one, the good sibling, all for nothing. They like him better anyways, always have and now more that he's successful and living their dream.

I am blessed with so much, but yet consistently been unhappy for the past few years. I feel I dont get the love and appreciation I seek from family and marriage. At times, I feel my life should go to someone else who wants to live and I can instead leave this world. I know I will be fine eventually (dark thoughts will go away) but I am no longer interested in this life, even though I am blessed with so much.

My ex keeps me on her private Snapchat story, but it’s almost all of the content revolves around her current boyfriend (mostly lovey dovey, sometimes complaining about him) What does it mean?

Looking for some perspective: we just got a brand new $2,000 glass top 78" dining table. I asked my husband to please use a table cloth when he uses that table for d&d with his friends to avoid scratches and the loud dice on the table. He got upset that I "don't let him enjoy our stuff," that I "hate the sound of him having fun," and he says I am being unreasonable. From my perspective, I just want to preserve this expensive piece of furniture that we both love. Am I being unreasonable?

Divorce or not? Loveless marriage, but love our 2 children and enjoying being close to them. Seeing my brother struggle with joint custody and think this is not for me. Too lazy/busy to rock the boat.

hi - new to this bowl. I want to make sure I’m not being irrational or dramatic lol.

My boyfriend forgot my upcoming birthday. He scheduled a pick-up hockey game on that day and when I asked him about it, he said it was important to him to play hockey with his friends and we could celebrate my birthday a different day. for context, we’ve been dating for over a year and he knows how important celebrating is to me. im pretty close to ending it... thoughts?

33 and still don’t think I want kids. Does that every change?

32 M Los Angeles. Indian. I like going on walks, trying different foods, and traveling. Hope to get married sometime this year, iA. If you are interested let me know.

Is it a sign to not leave yet if I’m hesitant to leave big law despite receiving offers at good companies? I am a junior associate that’s really burned out and yet I fear making the leap because of “missing” people I’ve worked with (who probably won’t remember me much) and all the hopes I had for myself when I first summered. But I also know this job has been extremely tough on my health and my family and I regretted it the first time I turned down an offer.

Fellas, at what point in your relationship do you start splitting things date expenses 50/50? Is the expectation that the man pays for everything or has feminism taken a strong enough foothold that women can be expected to pay their share?

Been with a girl for years. We get along well and enjoy each other's company. We're comfortable around each other, and I've generally been happy with her. As we've begun talking about marriage, I'm really giving some deliberate thought as to whether she's the right life partner for me. I'd pondered it before, but our relationship progressed very organically so never gave it too much serious consideration.

Now that I think of it, cont..

What's your go-to work music? Or do you work better in complete silence? I can't work in silence without my brain getting loud, so I listen to house music or jazz while I work. My sister (who also has ADHD) can't get anything done unless it's dead silent. Just wondering what works for others

Where can I raise a family in the NYC area that’s not suburbia and still accessible to Hell’s Kitchen/times square area (spouse’s office location)?

We have no choice but to relocate back to the city from the DC are for my SO’s job, but want to start trying for a kid soon…Id love have access to decent schools, activities for kids, and 3bed condos/homes under $1.5m 🥹 is this realistic?

How do you and your significant other split expenses such as rent and eating at restaurants? We are in our late 20s, not married, she works in tech and makes ~$150k while I am an Associate making ~$400k. We split our $4500 rent based on income so I pay 70% rent and I pay for all meals at restaurants (we eat out ~4 meals per week lunch or dinner). Interested in hearing how you all split these expenses and how your income splits between your partner

When I started in this industry, it was all about radio and direct mail. Now, most are doing video content and influencer marketing. What do you think our children will be influenced by?

How do you communicate with your parents? How often?

I’m so sad. Just found out at 13 weeks pregnant that fetus likely won’t make it. But I won’t know for sure for weeks. So sad. How do people deal with this? I’m already blessed to be a mom and love my kids, but this is really hitting hard.

Conduct annual performance reviews with your kids and let them know their status in the family is at stake. There’s no feeling in the world that compares to seeing an 8 year old kid on a PIP turn it around and earn an invitation to come back next year.

Does JPMorgan Chase blacklist if we accept their offer and don't join.

I work in a start-up - and the founder keeps wanting to see design progress day by day and I feel like am rushed and not given time develop design concepts to their potential. And because of that, I am forced to show them where am at, and then they start nitpicking every little thing in the screens designed even though I myself haven't fully finalised them
And based on the comments I change directions and then they would be like oh sorry now I see what you meant then (continued in comments)

Are there any guys that used company surrogacy benefits to start the process? 31M and thinking that since my company gives $20k, could I start that process and get reimbursed? And then continue a little later? My previous company offered the same and had I started then I could have had $40k covered. (Maybe start the legal work or find/freeze some eggs lol)

Last night i was at this bar with some friends and my boyfriend from 2 years arrived with all his coworkers and sits right next to us… I texted him “im right behind you” he replied “omg” two hours later all his coworkers are gone and he finally came and said “hi guys!” And in five seconds he was gone. Im deeply hurt. He texted me “what’s going on”? Like do i even need to explain myself?

Random thought... My gay male context plus the pandemic has amplified the "this isn't worth it" view of my unbalanced work life balance. I am never going to have kids and don't need to keep grinding for the next promotion etc. like my head of household peers with children. Do you feel the non-traditional household / income demands that LGBTQIA+ we live with are making you more easily say "enough is enough" with work as the valuation of our time has increased during the pandemic? 🤔

I’ve been meaning to mention to my grandfather for a while that I have a boyfriend but I don’t want to make it like a dramatic coming out and it just hasn’t come up naturally. I haven’t seen my grandfather in person in over 2 years and I’ve been dating my boyfriend for over a year.

My immediate family already knows as well as my grandmother from the other side who lives with them. Should I just keep waiting for it to naturally come up or should I have an intentional conversation about it?

So is hip-hop not a very typical stereotype for Gays?

I feel like I can’t ever get out of my head. I workout daily, eat like a saint, try hard as possible to sleep well. On an SSRI. But I ran out of the office at 4 pm because my mind was racing. Tired

I’m worried that my voice, communication style, and body language comes across as too effeminate for our straight clients and peers. I’m transitioning to sales now and am insecure that my personality and appearance may hinder sales gen? Client industry is very old school. Can LGBT partners//Ds/MDs chime in how they managed the same transition?
