Question for those with significant others: do you still talk to your exes? Why or why not?

The worst part of my breakup is the urge to obsess over his happiness with the woman he cheated on me with. Any tips?

I hope he’s in as much pain as I am. The way he ended it was so cold and selfish and unlike how he was any other time with me. It was like a personality switch. I’ve never been so wrong about someone. I’m not sure how to process or recover from that part of it.

Boyfriend and I have been dating for ~1.5 years and we still only spend weekends together. I want to move in together at the 2 year mark but bf thinks it’s too soon... just feels our relationship is stagnant and not going anywhere. Any thoughts from ppl who’ve gone through similar situations?

Motherhood and medicine- a delicate balance. Sounds like the titile of a book that needs to be written.

Looking for some perspective: we just got a brand new $2,000 glass top 78" dining table. I asked my husband to please use a table cloth when he uses that table for d&d with his friends to avoid scratches and the loud dice on the table. He got upset that I "don't let him enjoy our stuff," that I "hate the sound of him having fun," and he says I am being unreasonable. From my perspective, I just want to preserve this expensive piece of furniture that we both love. Am I being unreasonable?

Anyone else have family members that just wont stay the fuck home? Its driving me nuts that they are out shopping for non essentials and ignoring my concerns.

I fell in love with someone. And the last 2 days he didn’t message me much for some reason. I feel so love sick and have no idea what to do.

Very weird question to ask. 😄
Has anybody tried and tested ways to have a particular gender kid? I see chinese calendar theory and some sperm race thing.. lol. Planning baby *2 and hoping for the opposite gender of baby 1. Before anyone comes at me, we just would like to have one of each, and are not gender biased. 😊

Bf said on video he made his decision to breakup, and asked to meet on Sunday to talk in person. If he’s already decided, what’s the point of meeting up and break up one more time? (He said we have very different values. He thinks I look for stability, quality time, family, have a place, someone to come home to when he wants to travel and build businesses. He feels like the relationship is not letting him do what he wants to do at max capacity because of resistance he feels from me)

I am 34 and my average bed time at night is 8:30 to 9 - on weekdays. My wife says m boring.

Am I?

Cheated on my ex here and there throughout our 2 years together. When covid hit, I broke it off after a few months bc we couldn't see each other for who knew how long and it was causing a lot of fighting. I realized soon after I love and miss her but now she's already with another guy. What should I do to get over it? I've tried hooking up with random girls but none of that helps fill the hole she's left in me 😞 idk if I'll find anyone as perfect as her again

Bit o’ good news… my girlfriend’s mom came to visit after 3.5 years of not wanting to meet me 🥰 and she was very nice, even brought me a gift! 💕

My SO is scared to ask his parents for his money back. The money they were holding on to for him. Now that he’s a grown man I think he’s old enough to hold on to his own money. He like needs a valid excuse to ask for it back and I’m like why do you need an excuse when it’s your money and he’s like well I don’t want to start a fight…. And the last time he spoke to his parents about it apparently there’s been some mix ups and so they need to sort thru what’s his etc. (CONT’d in comments)

Do you tell your boss you’re going through a breakup? I’m phoning it in and obviously going to be camera off for awhile.

I have pretty strong social phobia and am worried about making friends. I'm going to be working for an engineering company so I imagine I don't have to be really up on the latest trends or anything but how can I talk to people without making it sound unnatural?

All of us want the same thing! Money- Flex Timing- Great Culture- Respect - Value in what we are doing!
We, the employees make a organization. If all of us want the same thing, how come the culture of that organization still remains the same! Why can’t we be the pioneer? Thoughts…

Hi folks,
Is there anyone in Capgemini who is an iOS developer and working from home?

How do you answer the question about yourself in i-944 where you can indicate "self" and it asks you if you live with said individual "self", and if this individual is filing for an immigration benefit with you or has in the past (again it's weird because you're talking about yourself.. ).

I'm so sick of people calling patients "poor historians." As if it's the patient's fault you can't get enough history

Anyone looking for a remote senior AD to start on Monday? My schedule opened up.

I am so thankful for my husband. We’ve had a rough year. But when he just pulled up his calendar app, I peeked the “therapy” recurring event for every Tuesday coming up.

It took a really long time to nudge and ask and plead and toss everything short of an ultimatum at him to start this work on his personal and emotional development.

There were times I wasn’t sure anything would change, and I worried maybe I was just wasting time… but he’s still proving he’s the right one :)

I’m staying in tonight, plz tell me funny stories.🧐

I need to be slapped across the face. I keep reaching out to my ex and he keeps treating me like trash. What is wrong with me :(

I was having a great morning and feeling productive till I decided to get a sandwich and coffee from Starbucks. 2 hours later, I have food poisoning. I've heard of life comes at you fast, but this was just unnecessary, and I hate life.

Have you ever had a date get kind of moody when you didn’t want to get too physical? He knew beforehand that I didn’t want to have sex but it seems like he expected us to just make out in a super sexual way instead and I wasn’t ready for how handsy he got.
