I have a 5 day weekend for thanksgiving. I don’t have any plans. BF of 7 months is unable to spend even part of it with me due to family obligations. Is this a red flag?

Looking for advice on personal space in a relationship. Been in thus relationship for 6 months. I date here and there but have not been in a serious relationship in a long time.

And on Fridays I go to her place right after work and stay the weekend. I’m finding a lack of my own time because it’s either work or her throughout the week and weekends...

I am 32 and not sure I want kids anymore. I have two golden doodles and they are all the love and affection I need. I’ve hinted it to my girlfriend but not sure she believes me…

Why am I scared and embarrassed to show affection towards my family, despite wanting to?

For example, sometimes I just want to hug my mom (I just graduated and still live at home) or even just say I Love You, but I Can't!

I have a really good relationship with my family so I don't understand why I can't just muster the courage to show affection?

I don't have any issues with showing affection to my SO...

Anyone have any ideas? Do I need a therapist?

Hi friends, I just raised exit request in Accenture after getting the offer from TCS. To be frank I love to work with Accenture as the hike percentage is pretty decent when compared to other companies also I am comfortable working with Accenture. I took this decision because the terms are not good with my current manager. I am currently drawing 15.5 LPA including variable pay. TCS offering 20 LPA. Is there any retention policy available? If yes how much hike I can expect?
