I moved out to a different state for college and never went back due to an emotionally and physically abusive dad. He is an alcoholic and gambling addict. Just heard from my mom today that he is on his way to my state to “start a new life.” She’s begging me to help him. Just yesterday, he texted me to never go home and I’m no longer his daughter. What should I do? Am I obligated to help him? I want nothing to do with him

My wife often calls me by 5:45/6 to ask where I am if I’m not headed home yet. Sometimes she’s stressed with kids/dogs/dinner and really wants me home. This really throws off my concentration because it makes me feel rushed. Like many practices sometimes I’m out at 5:30, other times it’s much later. Just depends and is unpredictable. Any advice on how to approach this?

Reached out to an ex after not being in contact for 4 years. Said “Hi, I hope all is well.” No response. Intention was not to get back together (we’re both married now), more to mend fences since we were good friends once upon a time. Was reaching out a mistake?

M, 44. After 21 years of marriage, my wife and I signed divorce papers with no contest. We have two adult daughters together, 18 and 21 So no child support, no alimony, and I make $170k at 44. I recently moved out of the marital house into an apartment,m. What should my next steps look like at this point? Do I need counseling?

My ex filed a police report against me and asked for a restraining order. We settled through our lawyers 6 months later without appearing in court as almost the whole thing was baseless and made up (not this post’s topic so let’s skip it).

My current concern is how I can trust and love someone ever again? We were lovers, and then she decided to utterly destroy me. Now I’m slightly scared about people and dating. Feeling traumatized.

Anyone with some advice or experience on recovery?

How many of you feel it’s important to marry a Brahmin?

hi - new to this bowl. I want to make sure I’m not being irrational or dramatic lol.

My boyfriend forgot my upcoming birthday. He scheduled a pick-up hockey game on that day and when I asked him about it, he said it was important to him to play hockey with his friends and we could celebrate my birthday a different day. for context, we’ve been dating for over a year and he knows how important celebrating is to me. im pretty close to ending it... thoughts?

What are your thoughts on the everlasting friends debate - cheating or were they on a break?

Seriously wanna divorce my wife who’s not necessarily a bad person but I feel angry about her all the time. I always have to fight with her over the small things. I feel she’s playing a power game and trying to take control whenever she gets the chance.

The only moment she steps back and be the person I want is when I get really angry and she can sense it. Why do I have to do this every time to get peace?

No kids, but even I am not afraid to divorce, I don’t feel it’s worth it!

My fiancé moved abroad for med school. Long distance is hard but I love my job, the work, the people, and the culture. I wish there were roles where you could work abroad. I wish I could work here forever, but I’ll likely need to switch to a firm that allows working abroad at some point to save the marriage. I’m afraid to tell anyone because I want to maximize my time/contribution here. Thoughts? Advice? Does anyone know of good firms that allow abroad work?

How many of you ladies are planning or ended up being a stay at home mom post maternity leave? I'm really considering it because I've always desired to stay home for a few years in child's first few years of life and we can afford it, but I'm also feeling a little sheepish about my work reputation and losing a great role (since I would have to quit). This will be my first child, FYI

Need advice: currently unemployed. got laid off last week. still applying and interviewing daily but can’t get over this one opportunity. the process has dragged on for a really long time. had a convo with the COO 2 weeks ago and haven’t heard back sense. I’ve emailed HR and the COO but no response. I feel I’ve been ghosted but at the same time I’m still holding onto hope that they maybe have a slow process.

How's everyone doing? I was on social media today and reading about the Adam Toledo video and it took me back to last June, which on top of the pain from seeing this racist system continue to win out, June was my lowest billing month and hurt my confidence about hitting hours compared to my white peers.

How are other people dealing with 1) trauma of another racist murder by cops and 2) impact on work? I am not black, so my pain does not compare but I can't act like things are fine either...

My confession is that I actually hate Target (I’m 27F). They got cute shit but it’s all overpriced and the quality is more often than not pretty terrible.

Still feel like I'm in love with my ex it's been 2 years. I don't think I'll ever find anyone better - things were not all great but when they were i felt like i was in the clouds. He's moved on and..

Just saw “B,” the former GC/my predecessor (also my mentor) who is retired but still comes to our conferences. He told me what an amazing job I was doing, how far I’d moved us forward in contract scaling, revenue, and infosec, and how he looked forward to seeing what I do for the company next.

CEO told me last week that he’s letting me go from the company at the end of the year. Clearly B does not know yet.

Do I tell B I’m getting canned, or let the CEO tell him?

As an Asian(Chinese) person, I’ve never seen 🥡 these containers used anywhere back in my home country - it’s honestly such a hassle opening them, just put it in a normal bowl container lol

A Partner of my previous company (M) and I (F) met up for a drink to catch up. Talk about work later turned into talk about our personal life, dating, etc. He opened up quite a lot about himself, even secrets. I have always found him very intriguing and attractive, even though he is 20 years older than me. He’s single at this point. We’re at different companies now.

I just want to come here to let this out. 🥵 The age gap makes this feeling quite taboo but I can’t help it. What should I do?
