Need some advice. Ive been with my GF for 3.5 months now. I’ve caught my GF in multiple lies regarding her sexual/relationship history. When caught, her first reaction is anger at me for asking about her past too much, etc. but eventually she becomes quite sorry and apologetic. She says I shouldn’t care about her past, but I feel that it is important, and I communicate my questions as soon as they come up. I really like her, and I know I could be less curious, but the lying hurts. Thoughts?

Do you think it is easier to overcome cheating in a relationship that has or does not have children involved? Listening to an interesting podcast and would love to know peoples take on the topic

So many people live in NYC but still it feels like the loneliness place on the planet. Does anybody have positive stories from dating apps? How do you guys meet ppl in general?

Married to a man who raised kids as a single dad and did lots of good things. He’s now retired and his hostility is killing me. We had nice ($$$$$) dinner last night and thought maybe we will finally connect. Well on his way to restroom a group was having pic taken in lobby and blocked him. Ruined the night. Angry grouchy jerk. And it’s always directed at me. It’s daily. Very sad and lonely. I bring it up and he belittles me. Traveling limited my exposure and was ok. Now I can’t handle

Anyone up for a chat? M here looking for M 😛

So I have been seeing a guy for 4 months. We have a pay disparity.. he earns less than I do (by quite a bit). He has mentioned a few times that he’s worried I’ll get bored of him when I know he can’t afford the same things I can. I think we are beginning to move past this, but now he’s starting to mention things like ‘I am really broke this month’, and last weekend he told me his mum has lost her job and he’ll have to probably pay her rent. I have a lot of sympathy for his situation … tbc

Asker outers- make reservations. I’m tired of going to dinner or drinks and finding out my date’s plan is winging it and the place doesn’t have space. Make a reservation!! It takes one min!!

I am a ft interior designer, full time mom that also does part time photography on the side. I currently make 90K as a designer and bring in around 20K as a photographer/yr.

Got an offer from McKinsey. I don't know if 1) I'm ready for the unusual/long work hours, and 2) if accepting would be a wise decision given the impending recession? Would appreciate any constructive thoughts.

Question for the married 🐠- Have you ever gone to couples therapy? If so, how did it work out for you? Did it help and do you now live your life happily ever after? Or did it just delay the inevitable and you are no longer in a relationship with your significant other? I’ve seen so many people go to therapy only to end up breaking up shortly afterwards and dropping some serious $$$

Starting a new job on Monday and can’t wait to update my LinkedIn. Love getting comments to wish me well on my new role. Can’t wait for my old co workers to see and react where I’m going 😈

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

Why aren't adulterers tried in court as a form of custodial voyeurism? How are there no legal consequences whatsoever, when there used to be a death penalty? Did you know US Military members are held fully accountable and it's illegal for them? Why should the rest of society be any different?
