I hate when people use the phrase “I would die for (xyz)” when xyz is something no one would actually die for - like a random cute dog on the internet or whatever. I mean, would you really die for that? It’s cute and all, but, no, I would not die for it.

It’s a common human quirk. I perceive it as an attempt to exaggerate a certain desire, rather than an actual literal expression of it. Like when they ask “how are you?”, it’s almost certainly not wanting to sit down and understand how you’re doing but a mere greeting and courtesy that an expected “good” or equivalent should be the reply.

Dilemma… I left my old company 4 months ago. Today, they’ve reached out to me to ask me to come back at a higher role, Operations Manager. I would’ve jumped on this opportunity if they asked me before. However, this role would be hybrid (2x in office) and come along with more responsibilities and hours than my current WFH role which is very chill. The pay is only 15% more than I currently make. Any thoughts?

On the topic of intimacy with partners… I’ve been with my boyfriend for 2 years and the past year his libido has dropped to zero. Mostly due to work stress (he says). Whenever I try to initiate, he always shuts me down and says he’s not in the mood. I even touch him and he gets hard but stops me as soon as I try to unzip him. We went from once a week to maybe once a quarter.

I’ve talked to him about it and he says I should take care of myself. So frustrated. 😭😭

Have a crush on my co-worker.

My neighbor is a bit creepy/lonely (?). He comes over to chat when I’m outside working on the house or doing yard work and doesn’t catch on too well to social cues.

Anyone else have any odd or awk neighbor experiences? How do you dealllll when you just don’t want to interact?
