I just got dumped. It was the most serious relationship I’ve been in in awhile. I was at a great place in my life and ready for it. But it was messy with baggage on his part -kids, distance, court dates with soon to be ex wife, visa change. I was hoping there’d be room in his life for me, eventually. My logical brain understands and knew this was coming, but my heart is sad and disappointed and exhausted and not ready for this emotional abandonment and emptiness, especially this time of year.

Tax question: my SM changed my hours with a location I never worked at, from 2020. When I asked for a change, he is hesitant since it’s a long process. Would it cause any issue on visa if I filed a tax to a state I never worked in?

Pre-approved for a home but the rate lock expired and now we have to re apply. My husband lets me know his credit score dropped 111 points because of credit card utilization. Even if we get it below 30% ( which we can) not sure it will quickly reflect. I also added him as an authorized user on a high limit credit card I have. Any other suggestions besides trading him in lbs

Has anyone found roles in Big 4 or industry that allowed more work life balance when their kids were young without damaging future career trajectory? I'm a partner with young kids and feel like I'm missing out on too much of their lives. Wishful, but my dream job would have a lighter workload in terms of time and pressure for the next ~5 years, but not set me back too much (or at all) when the kids are older and tired of me in a few years and I'm ready to be back at work full force.

I’m a 23yo female legal assistant working/living in Canada. I am completing my BA in hopes of continuing with law school after. But, I just turned 23 and I’m anxious about my love life and starting a family. I haven’t had a boyfriend since 2019 and I’ve poured my heart and soul into my education & career.

I have personal accounts (under my SSN) and a business account (under a C corp's EIN) at a major bank. I opened new checking and IOLTA accounts for my new law firm (under a new EIN), accessible online via a new userid.

Now the bank has tied my new law firm's accounts to the C corp's EIN and userid. The bank's phone support people say I need to wait until tomorrow to visit the branch. Until then, the C corp's owners, bookkeepers, and systems can access the law firm's IOLTA and general accounts.

With a recession around the corner - two questions:
1) will there be layoffs at Deloitte? My concern is we hired so much ppl this year.
2) will there be more work in org design? Just saw the Robinhood 9% workforce layoff announcement.

Any XD leads here that work at Accenture Interactive or EY Design Studio?

You always hear mgrs/sr mgrs switching to industry to become a controller, but do controllers ever come into public accounting as a sr mgr or anything else??

Any recommendations for personal trainers in Atlanta? How much do people typically pay per session/month?

Salam, Ramadan Mubarak! Anyone trying to maintain some level of strength training during Ramadan? I know it’s ideal to lift after iftar (maybe after dates/water + magrib and before dinner) but wonder if it is doable to squeeze in a 30-40 min training session right before iftar (for time saving purposes)?

Good places to go in December? I was thinking Portugal - but heard it gets cold cold. Any other recommendations?

Edelman. Fourth time now — each time, they reach out to me! Honestly, I’m not looking for a job just trying to be polite and keep my network open but fool me once; fourth time and you’ve been blocked.

Best way to approach networking with MBB if I am planning to apply for roles in Jan 2024 (1 year from now). Do people start with their school alum and get referred to partners?

I’m never satisfied with what I have and it makes me feel like sh*t because I know I’m so fortunate to have what I what have

I need to let it out but I’m so fucking proud of myself and I just realized how lucky I got and it took me until just now to see it. I started in the military and it only took 2 months for me to get out and fall into a bottomless hole of depression. My transition went from: $13 an hour part time, separation with the wife, new job at $18 an hour for physical labor, hit with disability diagnosis, then $20 an hour new office job, reconnecting with wife, having 2nd kid, nearly divorcing (cont.)

Several years ago a gay male acquaintance said he didn't date Black guys. It made me bristle but I was not surprised. Now he's married to one. I feel in a way vindicated every time I see his loving social media posts with his Black husband of like 5 years or so now.

How did he get over his apparent aversion to Black men enough to go and marry one? Where would he be if he hadn't had a change of heart?

I wish there were a tactful way to remind him he said that and watch as he eats his words...

I don’t get the hype about the new Spider-Man movie. Yes, it’s a good one, but why do people think it’s the best one yet? Am I missing something?

Grinder is so much more convenient for hookups. Anything similar for straight men?

I’m so grumpy about new campus hires. Sometimes I’m judgmental (your hobby is “working on your golf swing,” really?). Sometimes I’m just exhausted by the worried earnestness. Sometimes I’m amazed that they seem to have zero useful skills, yet they’ll be making 150k easily in the not too distant future.

I’m 29 and only now realized I shouldn’t go on dates if I’m still bitter about an ex

Getting over heartbreak and having a full time job is torture lol. My boyfriend and I just broke up after almost a year of being together. It was such a beautiful relationship but ultimately he just didn’t love me. I love him so much. My mind knows that I deserve reciprocal love and I’m worthy, but I feel physically ill. My body hurts, my stomach is in knots, my head hurts. How is it that I have to mend a broken heart but also meet my billable hours lmao

I’m not a very big guy but this one girl I was with keeps saying ouch. She’s not a tiny girl. I asked if it was ok and she said it’s good pain. Thoughts?

I really miss breeding out one night stands.

I have to keep reminding myself that I don't need validation from certain people. It's hard.
