So one of Oreo’s (human) friends that he had not seen for a couple months came to visit him today. There was so much cuddles and kisses given ...I was jealous for a second.

I used to be a special Ed teacher and changed careers to an executive assistant at BMO after facing major burnout from teaching. Now that I’m a first time mom, i really want to work part time or even .75, but I do not want to go back to teaching right now. I am thinking of tutoring- any suggestions on private tutoring vs. tutoring companies?

Anybody here send your kids to charter schools? What’s that experience like? I just heard about them for the first time and am curious as someone who is starting a family soon.

This week I the my first date and first sexual encounter since my recent divorce (10 yrs together).

I feel very conflicted because the woman I saw is so similar to my ex physically (age/race/height/weight/haircolor) The more we talk, the more I realize their personality, interests and history are also very similar.

Really ruminating on this fact. I like her a lot but I feel like I might be unconsciously seeking familiarity as some kind of strange way to cope with the loss of the relationship.

Has anyone been in a relationship where it’s so wrong but feels so right at the same time? Wrong in the sense that we are different religions, speak different languages (common language is English) and have an overall different outlook on life. Right in the sense that he treats me so well, he’s grounded and driven. I am so torn.

My wife's an artist and I'm an engineer, so I guess opposites really do attract sometimes

Anyone else in the bowl move here from the US? Want to be friends? Lol I am still new

Do you think using “him/her” for “he/she” (ex: “her is playing” “him not here yet”) is something that kids usually grow out of? Or does it need direct intervention? I have 2 students who exhibit this error, who otherwise should be dismissed. Normally I’d just keep them on and work on it alongside other goals, but they don’t have any other goals, and with COVID, and my upcoming maternity leave in March, a more compact caseload would be advantageous.

What's the best way to help a student catch up after a while away from school? I have a student who missed 3 months (Aug-Nov) whose coming back next week and I feel like a packet to take home just isn't enough.

Why is it so hard to find a relationship? Is it a corporate thing?

Just discovering RSD after being diagnosed as an adult. I feel like SO MUCH of my life has been impacted by this and I just never had a name for it. At work if someone gives me negative or constructive feedback it can feel like a punch in the chest even if I know it's not personal. Makes romantic relationships so hard too. What do you do to handle it especially at work?

Have you ever taken a job you know you will hate because you needed the money right away? I have a family to take care of. I don't want to be plowing through our savings for selfish reasons like my mindframe at work, but I don't want to make our lives worse by being miserable. It's a matter of really ruining some of our financial future if we don't get money soon.

Anything I can say or do to support a friend who just failed the bar?

I used to be so devoted to my academics that I kind of forgot to make some close friends. How do you reignite your social life after college?

What are some dog communities/apps/blogs that you use?

Some days I wish our dogs could talk to us 🥺

Hi fellow dog lovers - Sorry to bring up this topic🙈 but just realized I have no idea how to handle the inevitable. My fur baby is 16 yrs old (small breed) and in great health but is noticeably aging. I am thinking ahead even though I don't want to. Is there any unique way to bury a pet? I have never had a pet this long or had one pass so I am not sure what I would do. I was thinking of burying in the back yard but I know we may move in the next year or so. How have you lovingly said goodbye?
