I've never understood what's attractive about going in house. I'm in my second year and people consistently reach out on LinkedIn. I don't have kids nor do I ever plan on having them. I feel like I have enough time for myself and my relationship and taking a decrease in pay doesn't really make sense to me.

How do you go about building trust with your partner?

I’m in a fairly new relationship (few months) and it’s long distance. Both of us have trust issues, and we are trying to find way to build that trust between us. We want to do it without having to constantly prove ourselves, as we feel that undermines much of the trust.

Any suggestions how you built trust w your partner? I’m aware that much of it comes from within, or personal insecurities, which I’m trying to figure out how to address too

My family mistreated me when I was younger, and now that I don’t live at home, they don’t call or bother to look for me, because frankly, I think they have a hard time admitting what happened - and will never apologize to me either. If I don’t call, or occasionally go see them during the holidays, we would never talk. Some of them are growing old (health-wise), and I’m scared this entire situation is just irreparable. Has anyone ever gone through anything similar? Any advice or thoughts?

Hi can you please help me with the right marital status when applying for German visa. I am a separated women but not a divorcee yet. Will it be a problem if I put my marital status as single.

We talk about our personal lives, and I feel like it's hard to be completely honest with her when she's so casual with me. I don't want to lose our friendship, but I also need to be able to talk honestly with someone who has the power to help me grow professionally. Is there a way to have both?
