Hi ladies, I could use some guidance. A dear friend that I care for deeply that has feelings for me said I made them feel “worthwhile.” I know they can have some dark thoughts and want to know how can I best support this person? They mean a lot to me and it kills me to think they may be going through something dark. Any advice would help. Thank you so much. X

During family prayer - my mom takes nearly 40 minutes every single time (this is 2x a day, morning and night). She speaks a different language and I barely understand. How can I lovingly tell her to take less time?

So I have been seeing a guy for 4 months. We have a pay disparity.. he earns less than I do (by quite a bit). He has mentioned a few times that he’s worried I’ll get bored of him when I know he can’t afford the same things I can. I think we are beginning to move past this, but now he’s starting to mention things like ‘I am really broke this month’, and last weekend he told me his mum has lost her job and he’ll have to probably pay her rent. I have a lot of sympathy for his situation … tbc

Random question but do you let your kids hang out in your bedroom and use your master bath if applicable? My kids always seem to want to use our bathroom instead of theirs and my spouse doesn't care but I grew up with my parent's room basically being off limits and think I'd prefer it that way.

Seeking insights & any advice. F🐟 , late 20’s, never married, no kids; in a relationship with a divorced dad of 2, things are getting serious. So much that’s new for me & I’m wondering if anyone has been through something similar & how they navigated taking that serious next step? What things did you discuss (I’m thinking finances, family dynamics, involvement with kids, premarital counseling etc). It’s also an interracial relationship. I mostly worry about his kids, want them to be okay!

I’ve suffered from workaholism for a long time. Thanks to a lot of great self help books and therapy, I’m no longer putting work on a pedestal and I’m spending a lot more time on self care and my marriage. But, unfortunately, I am now getting withdrawals, because my body is used to the daily adrenaline of throwing myself into work. It’s this terrible feeling of like anguish/unease in my gut, but I don’t have anything I’m worried about- it’s like my body wants to find something to worry about.
