The person I had an affair with for months is flying into my city next week and has been messaging to try to make plans. I’ve said no in about 5 different ways.

Who am I? Is this what being a decent human feels likes? 😳

I am not sure how ppl get married by using dating app, is this really how ppl get themselves into serious relationship nowadays?

42 M - NY area - divorced, looking to meet new folks.

There's a guy on 29who never shuts up. If you are reading this - be quite already

I'm not sure what else I did other than being respectful and not giving flip at the same time but (4) mature ladies in my office flirt with me every chance they get. Some of my M colleagues are beginning to notice and giving the prod. I must confess it comes with some perks as I do appreciate how fast they process my requests/orders which a M colleague literally told me is biased. Recently one of them offered to bring me her cooked food and asked that I do the same..(Cont'd)

Quick poll for single guys : how often do you have random hookups?

I was on a tour but where I asked a couple of older women sitting behind me to speak softly as it was 6:30 am in the morning. After that they kept saying loudly that i’m smelling and that i need to use deo and that i should keep my arm down. I confronted them later and they said respect your elders?? I want to ruin their vacation. What else can I do?

On the topic of intimacy with partners… I’ve been with my boyfriend for 2 years and the past year his libido has dropped to zero. Mostly due to work stress (he says). Whenever I try to initiate, he always shuts me down and says he’s not in the mood. I even touch him and he gets hard but stops me as soon as I try to unzip him. We went from once a week to maybe once a quarter.

I’ve talked to him about it and he says I should take care of myself. So frustrated. 😭😭

Interested in everyone’s opinions on replica luxury. I ask because, as noted in the previous thread re: Chanel’s price increases, the quality of authentic luxury bags is going way down while the price increases consistently. Specifically Chanel and LV. I’m fascinated in the online rep community and it looks like rep quality has increased exponentially (with genuine materials and 1:1 markings, stitching, hardware, etc). What’s your argument for or against replicas?

Staying downtown Columbus Hilton for my wife’s job conference and we have to use valet parking since I need to use my car to go to work every day. $40 a day, how much do I tip and is it when I drop my car off and when they bring it to me in the morning?

Why is Legacy status accepted as a reasonable part of the application process yet Affirmative Action isn’t? Both are the result of things you had no control over. . .

Anyone actually use the Networking feature here on fishbowl? Like yeah I see some of you with it on but do you actually use it besides thirsty dms?

We need a better a singles bowl

I’m just kinda feeling lost, a bit like a failure , and maybe tired . I’m 30 f, single, moved to a new town, studying for the cpa, had falling out with the first two friends I made in new town, deeply missing my friends from back home, work has been a lot - job hopping . The partner was so excited and quick to give me an offer. I feel like I’m 💯 at this point just disappointing him. Idk what advice someone could give me , but has anyone else gone through “just surviving period”

This is a VERY long story. Even skipping parts will take awhile, so I'll hit the important things first. If anyone wants the whole story lmk, I really am interested to see if its me over thinking or if I had just been groomed to believe her constant lies because I wanted it to work so badly. We've been dating more or less since early 2013. She is actually 12 years older than me but never looked it. Still to this day her inboxes are flooded with men trying to hit on her or to just say "Hi

Is it bad luck to pawn a promise ring?

Looking for help on which exercises I should focus on at the gym. I’m looking to increase my stamina in terms of reciprocal hip movements while in a horizontal position. I’m working on cardio, but is there anything else I should be doing?

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

I am the lovable fool in my team 😊

Really sucks how unfair life can be

To all the divorced folks out there...

1) What went wrong in your relationship?
2) What's one piece of advice you'd give to us singletons before jumping into a long term relationship/marriage?

I like to learn from other people's mistakes 😅

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
