I always wished I’d find my SO at work. Instead I found no one but other people’s SOs to bang.

Any tips for hard launching partners on social media? For context, I’ve (Indian American female) been dating my white American boyfriend for 3 years and we just got engaged after two years of convincing my parents. They are very happy and excited now, but I’m scared shitless about being ostracized / judged by my extended family and Indian community in the US once I “let the cat out of the bag” on the engagement news. I want to be proud and confident about this but could use some moral support.

Anyone here break up with the love of their life and truly regret it now? I recently ended things with my fiancé. I felt he made decisions aligned with his life vision and would ultimately not give enough room for me to incorporate mine. I know I could just agree to give in and any relationship requires that but think after some time I would have resented it and ended things to spare us both. I really do miss him and can’t help feel I may have messed up now as a mid-30s female.

How do you get over someone you never dated? I know this person is not right for me but I can’t get it off my head

Reunited with an ex and things moved very fast with the two of us spending a lot of time and nights together but we waited to consummate the “relationship”. Recently, he shared that he wasn’t in a position to be in a relationship right now and felt like he didn’t have enough to offer me but he cared deeply for me and was very attracted to me. Admittedly, he isn’t financially well-off and is heading back to school to finish his degree (we’re in our 30s) but it still hurts a lot.

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..

How can I make friends in Chicago?

My boyfriend’s breath stinks and I’m not sure how to say it. I know that most commenters will say I just need to rip the bandaid off and do it, but I’m really bad at approaching conversations that may spur conflict or awkwardness. I typically say nothing at all which is even worse. Can someone help me change my mindset as to handling situations like this? I know what to do and say, I just can’t bring myself to actually do it. I’m afraid of the awkwardness, afraid of making him self conscious,

Who else is dreading travel to pick back up because they don’t want to leave their pups?

After 2.5 years of long-term relationship, I finally find a job in my boyfriend's country and able to live with him in 2 months. I am always a cat person but my boyfriend doesn't get it. But he agrees we can adopt one once we live together. I was wondering what are the things that I need to make him aware of before having a cat to set the expectation?

Hello everyone,
I’m supporting a mom who had a 2 month supply of breast milk in her freezer but the freezer stopped working at some point on Thursday after 5pm.

I have been with my wife for almost a decade and I have lost count of the number of women I have cheated on her with. I have been "lucky" that she has never found out but I literally can't stop. I feel ill lose everything if she discovers this and I truly and deeply do love her. I just don't know how to fix myself. Please help!

I am so tired of my sister and mom, and the pressure they apply on me to get married, 32 year old female and I have not met someone yet. I was in a relationship last year for a year and he turned out to be a very mean person and they now don’t trust me at all and want me to marry the first nice guy I go on a date with even if I have no attraction at all, and if I go on a couple of dates and I don’t feel it, they question my judgement. I feel like dying from the pressure.

Does anyone else get pressure from Parents/family to move back home?

❗️PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION FOUND IN DRUG TEST❗️As expected, it was found in a drug test as part of a background check for a conditional job offer. Hireright called me & asked me for the name of my medication, name of pharmacy & their phone number. I called my pharmacy (big retail pharmacy) & they said they don’t give medical info to anyone that’s not my doctor … I’m afraid my offer will be rescinded. I’m freaking out. Has this happened to anyone? What do I do?

Salesforce 🐠, what factors come into play when you’re selecting an implementation partner to introduce to your customers? I’m seeing a lot of smaller and less-established implementation partners swoop in at the last minute with rock bottom pricing and winning deals that they likely can’t deliver successfully with a small and inexperienced team. Yet it seems that this continues to happen, even in higher market segments. Interested to hear your thought process - thanks!

You ever feel insecure when it comes to asking out women who are more successful than you?
I'm typically not good with women, but even worse when I meet a woman who is more successful than me. Like it makes me feel like I have even less of a shot and I shouldn't even bother. Is this common for anyone else?

Random musing from a 40+ F who drinks occasionally but not wine. All of the female alcoholics I’ve ever known were primarily wine drinkers. 🤔 Is this true for other people or just a random coincidence in the pool of alcoholic females in my life?
