Guys and gals... so happy in my life right now : we had a wonderful baby boy after 2 years of difficult times following the loss of girl twins very late in the pregnancy and a few miscarriages. I love my wife so so much ! even though she is snoring at 120 dB rn at 4 am 😂

Where did you meet your SO?

What are the top questions you get about big law work over Thanksgiving? Mine is never actually about my work and always some variation of "if you work that much how will you ever get married." Flying home this weekend so bring on the wine!

30 year old male daddy hunter. Slide into my DMs if you’ll be my father figure until the end of time.

I have a suggestion/ things you want me to know box in my classroom. Today one of my students put a note in the box saying her mom lost her job and she feels bad because she is the poorest student in the class. She said the other kids have cool things and she is poor. I want to help her but don’t want to offend her parents. Any suggestions?

I'm so glad to see the changes to accept more women in academia in recent years. I'm hopeful that my own daughter will be able to follow in my footsteps one year.

** Really need your advise**
So my gf 26 and I 27 (m) broke up a month back. We booked a concert long time ago and that’s up next week. Our breakup was mutual but this girl is special. I have tried over and over again to rekindle but she said it’s done. The concert is next week and I really want her there. Should I ask her one last time or should I let her go?

How’s your work-life balance at the moment? Do you think research positions allow enough time for us to spend with friends and family?

I’ve gradually moved on from ex-bf from 1y ago, but still to this day have this greatest fear that I’d crumble if and when I hear he is getting engaged or married to someone.

I wanted a life with him but he couldn’t see it with me (midway of our relationship) or with anyone before me. I do wish him to find his happiness.

It’s just that feelings of unworthy, unloveable, not chosen by someone you love so dearly continue to haunt me after all these times. Anyone has tips to get through this?

Poll - how many of you are in an interracial relationship/marriage? Age, gender, ethnicity? Again this is not to offend, I am just curious :). Happy to delete the post if anyone feels offended

How do you communicate with your parents? How often?

Hey guys… I’m a case worker in child safety and I’m someone who loves being outdoors/dies at a desk all day. I’m hoping to organise that at least once a week I can go to a cafe and catch up on all my case notes that need to go into the system.
So far the only reason I’ve been told no is that “if you do then everyone will want to and then no one will be in the office” … how can I convince them that I work better out of the office and get this freedom & mental break for myself?

I was planning on leaving for another firm but Covid happened. I feel stuck and helpless, but I’m thankful that I still have income. This isn’t a question, just a statement and cry for help.

Bored on a flight to SLC. AMA.

Why are some people so interested in other’s careers? For instance, my ex-colleagues, former classmates, acquaintances, and even people who I met during interviews all stalk my LinkedIn every now and then. I find it weird

Between work and sleep, I’ll always choose sleep. Specially after working (or at least staring at laptop) for over 12 hours. Hats off to all those who say they work 16 hrs a day and are in mid 30s 🙄

I like sex. How’s that for a confession😈😈😈😈

So lonely rn that I almost want to text every girl in my phone “miss you” and see who bites.

King of the Hill is one of my favorite shows

I’m 33, don’t own a home, don’t work at a fancy FAANG company, don’t make north of 150k. I have a toddler and I feel like I failed her by still not figuring out my life and career. Do all moms /parents feel like this?

Women how would you react to this- I’m talking to a woman with a child. Really into her and we seem to be really compatible. I told her today that I wanted to take care of both her and her child, I invited her and her child out on my boat to go tubing and more. Continue in comments

I left my job this summer with money in my old companies FSA. I can be reimbursed only for expenses that were incurred while I was there. This was news to me. I have expenses now but not from earlier in the year because of the pandemic. Anyway - how bad would it be to just back date an invoice and submit for reimbursement? Seems like a crime with no victim.

How often does your significant other kiss you? I feel like my girlfriend smothers me : /
