My dad is going through a rough time… he feels lonely because he works abroad and lives alone plus him and my mom are currently not on good terms, and in general he’s just not very happy right now. I know he wants to talk and let all this out with anyone… but I don’t feel ready to be listen to him in this situation. My dad has always been super strong and he’s always been that person who knows what do in every situation and I just can’t listen to him talk about how lonely and sad he is..

Moved to the DC area about two years ago and have yet to establish myself friendwise. I usually tag along with my partner to all of his events as I’m traveling 5 days a week and have no forum. Any...

My adoption application was approved!! I’m hoping to bring her home this weekend. Any advice for a first time cat parent is greatly appreciated! 🙏🏼

Have you ever been or currently in a relationship with someone of who’s political beliefs conflict with your own?

Not dealing with this currently have dealt with it in the past. My parents started out opposites but now believe similarly. I’m wondering if it is possible in this day and age.

Guys, just want to hear your opinion on something/ what a guy would think ): my husband and I rarely argue but we recently have argued a lot more for little things. (See comment)

Ladies: (no wrong answer) When considering the finances of a potential boyfriend, which is more important to you:
A. his current income;
B. his current debt;
C. his current savings;
D. his current investments

Keep in mind, I am not excluding all the more important factors in picking a partner, I’m just curious about this specific consideration.

Hi
Are there any couple pg/studio aprtment in pune wanna shift with my wife for some 3-4months.
Please help me with some suggestions..

WFH parents - what’s your routine and how old are your kids? Struggling to find one for me.

Very curious to get folks' perspectives on having kids at 30 vs. 35 vs. 40? Context: I'm 27 and am leaning towards 35ish age range for first kid.

My kids were really upset with me when I told them that my job as an engineer did not mean that I drove trains for a living

Confused if parents want schools to reopen or not? I read so many posts here about how difficult it is to work full time and manage kids’ at-home schooling (I can’t even imagine!) so would assume that means parents want to reopen, but at the same time keep seeing a ton of backlash from parents in states who are pushing to reopen due to safety reasons. What’s the general consensus?

I low key miss fridays in the office because I don’t know how to make new friends as a 26 year old

Has anyone been through a situation that you were in a terrible relationship ( stress,anger, fights, swears, physical abuse, ego clashes) and how did you resolve it? Some might have worked on and stayed in the relationship and some might have broken up. I am looking for answers from both sides. How did you stay/work on it and how did you break up and move on? Me and my partner have strong feelings for eachother and are almost inseparable despite going through so much.

I just learned I was parentified severely, especially emotionally. The discovery came from outside of therapy, but having a place every week to sit down, slow down & reflect def led to it. Being enmeshed with my parents like this was a cause for my anxiety, low self esteem and workaholic, people pleasing tendencies. I'm working on extricating myself and finding my identity again in a way that will be easy on my conscience and values..so I'm learning! Please dont hesitate to go to therapy!...

Moving to London in June for a permanent role. What's a good area to live in, friends? Looking for a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom place ideally.

Completely off topic
I don't have any friends.. sometimes i feel very lonely.. i don't have anyone to share my thoughts or feeling.. there is this void.. trying to pickup things to distract myself but it's not helping much... Seeking your inputs!! Sorry for this off topic question.

Girlfriend has very obvious high functioning anxiety and body image issues that she admits but thinks she doesn’t need therapy or medication and that reading self-help books will help her. It’s not changing in the last several years and it’s impacting our relationship. Anyone have experience with their SO dealing with untreated anxiety? I know I can’t control her but would like to express my feelings without sending her into a spiral. For context, I’ve been in therapy for 12 months and medicated

For anyone in this bowl. How crucial is it for you to have a formal dining room separated from the kitchen? My son and daughter-in-law are buying a house for their future family and I'm trying to convince them a formal dining room looks better and makes things less chaotic in the kitchen, especially with kids. Am I out of touch? Or is it still important?

My husband repeatedly claims domestic abuse falsely, and it’s getting too much. Now that I have kids he has started saying this to them and they say it back to me. I think he does this because he wants custody of kids or an upper hand when it comes to finances if we end up divorcing. Any ideas on how to handle this

What do you do when your lifelong friends get married, have kids and disappear to the burbs or wherever and you’re single, lonely and gay?

Theory: Trump is losing his mind because he’s essentially been forced to become celibate. He obviously loves chasing women of all kinds, but now he can’t. Four more years? He’ll go totally insane.

Recently learned that the whole “humans only use 10% of their brain” thing is not true at all. What are some other common science misconceptions?

What books have you read recently that have dramatically shifted your understanding of who God is?

Based on the recent event of George Floyd’s murder/police brutality, what do others think? Most of the church is silent when it comes to these issues and not sure why. Curious to know others thoughts regardless of your race/ethnic background.

Christian friends, I need your prayers! I have done a lot of thinking and have to turn my project manager into the ethics committee. It makes me so anxious even though I know it is right.

Anyone going to church every week in NYC?

Is it possible for God to reveal who we’re going to end up with? I feel very strongly that God is pointing me towards this man (who is only an acquaint at this point), but I don’t want to mistake my feelings for Gods voice.

How does anyone keep time well for prayer and meditation while fully giving yourself to family and work in this economy?

One can imagine work here as meant in the maximum of work vs life here.

I know people who are constantly crashing and that’s without the set time for prayer. And despite hearts or gold, obvious piety and a high work ethic.

What are your thoughts on how faith should affect your work?

Lifting you all up in prayer as this new week begins. Peace for burdens, sharpened discernment at work, and Gods love and favor from the tops of your head to the soles of your feet. 💓

This came up in another thread, but is anyone interested in a weekly virtual bible study? If you already belong to one, what's the best app or website. I've been looking for virtual bible studies and haven't had any luck.

Hoping you all can stand with me in prayer. I’m emotionally and spiritually tired. I want my peace back. My self esteem has taken a huge shot. And I feel like I’m in a spiritual tug of war.

I just found out I am pregnant and the person is not a believer. I know i have sinned, and now i am so lost. Abortion has crossed my mind multiple times. Not sure what i am doing posting here, I just needed to vent.

Anyone dealt with a Christian parent who has been backsliding since the pandemic? Is this common? And how did you deal with it?

Looking for encouragement/ inspirational books for my teenage (14) nephew 🙏🏾☀️

My aunt recently passed away, leaving behind 2 young girls (16 and 12 years old). I’m trying my best to be there for them and pray for them, and have been asking people to pray for them as well. Until I started question what is the point of asking people to pray for them? I know God hears my prayers, so why do we ask people to pray ?

Anyone been praying for something (or someone) for a long time (weeks, months, yrs) and it seems like nothing is happening/changing? I have and feeling really discouraged about it today. Anyone else?
