Ugh Libby's family is just as toxic as Andrei!

35F divorced with a kid. I think I will never get remarried or in a serious relationship again. Lots of men don't like dating women with children. At my age either the guys are past their prime, divorced/ing and have to provide half their income to their first wife. Many with kids live on the same street as their ex wives so they can be close to their child. I'm not comfortable dating guys like that. On the flip side there are the ones that were never married, which by this age cont

I’m currently struggling with my friend group. I’m a transplant to my current city and ended up making friends with my coworkers (who were also transplants). Now I’m regretting this as I don’t feel like the friendship is deep and things seem competitive. I feel like I have no friends and my real friends (from HS and College) are in a different state and have their own lives. Any advice on dealing with having no real friends where you live?

I love living in Miami, but have found it incredibly difficult to make friends. I had a thriving social life/ friend group in Chicago. Anyone else finding it hard to build friendships here?

Any books that you found very helpful to read as expecting parents? We’re just nine weeks along, but would love to start preparing however we can!

Starting at PwC next year... newly married (Husband) with a kid on the way. How's life going to be with a newborn as a new associate? I'm older (30) and went back to school for my CPA if that matters.

Hadn’t noticed this sub before, and most of the threads are old so thought I’d ask a follow up - how has everyone been handling parenting with public accounting? I’ve got a toddler and my wife is an accountant (industry), and we only have a few immediate family in the country- but they have health concerns. Busy season was rough, things are looking better now as things return to normal. Still working crazy hours if you count the daycare duties on top of utilization targets.

How practical is living as a single parent in Europe (scotland/Norway)?

Any recos on great childcare in New York (ideally west village / Chelsea / Greenwich / soho)?

Why do some muslim men think that career women in their 30s become desperate and will significantly lower their standards? Someone with 3 kids that’s been divorced twice and isn’t even practicing just told my friend he’ll do her the favor of giving her children. The arrogance is mind boggling

Has anyone one been in the interracial relationship(s)? How was your experience?

What’s your *wish-fulfillment fantasy* life like? Hot model wife, kids, a house in the suburbs and success in your career?

Any book recommendations to gift my cousin sister? She studied (masters) psychology and is a trained classical dancer.

28,F divorced no child and no life , my marriage is nothing but a whole cheat drama, now parents are asking to marry anyone who can 'accept ' me but I never did anything wrong other than being innocent and naive and good to bad people, really wanted to live my life, somebody hold my hand when in distress and i ended up somebody who just need my money and body nothing else, just feel like committing suicide, never been a loser at any point of life , Life is bloody damn unfair

I’ve been pulling 16 hour days the past couple of weeks. I haven’t taken any personal time, I’m burnt and my gf hates me 4 it. Is this normal? What do you guys do when work literally never ends?

How much per week/month do you spend on daycare?

Just got divorced after being separated for a year. Any suggestions for places to go and meet new folks?

It’s my birthday in a few minutes. 2021 has been a terrible year for me. My marriage ended. It wasn’t a bad end though. We are still close, just not romantic partners anymore. The very first dog I ever had died and I couldn’t go see her because of the quarantine. I didn’t get a promotion that I more than deserved. I don’t think I get paid well. Most of my friends moved out of the city and I’m having to meet new people at 32. I love my job but it’s incredibly stressful. I’m terribly lonely.

I am getting ready to send my 2 year old toddler to a toddler program next week for the first time. Have to fill out a form “bathroom waiver”, which is basically allowing teachers at the school to clean my child after a potty, including genital area. I feel uneasy about this but I know I have to let them… I assume all parents have signed such waiver?

Moving to Philly Nov 1, just signed a lease in Queen Village. Coming from LA where I was part of a volleyball group and had a lot of options at the beach. Suggestions on making friends and being active (while still being respectful of covid rules & health of all)? 36 F

My Dad and brother didn’t even text me happy birthday 😔

Which is good Program Management in JPMC or Accenture?

Has anyone quit without backup offer? Did you regret doing so?

On the news, there was a report that "stress" causes negative health effects. Um. OK. Don't people feel "stress" just by being alive? Like, what would be the control group that you could measure the results against? I don't know why, but it always makes me wonder

Hi, any consultant freelancing in Dubai? How do you go about finding gigs ? LinkedIn? Recruiters? Your personal network?

Any experience working as a corporate paralegal with Cooley, LLP?

Interested in how much others spend on food per month and what that breakdown looks like between at home or ordering out.

My husband and I have no kids and order/go out very rarely, maybe once a month, and our grocery bill for just the 2 of us has risen to around $750-$800 per month this year.

It's starting to feel very unreasonable to spend so much despite not wasting much. I do buy mostly produce but not always organic, and very little meat.

What are the best books/blogs/online resources to boost your organizational change management skills?

I like the idea of this group - any firms that are hiring?

Hi Fishes 🐠,

Hope you are doing great!

I wanted to reach out because I’m currently exploring new opportunities. I have 4 years of experience in project management and business operations. Please help sharing/referring if there is any PMO/Project Management you have.
Just to add, I am currently serving my notice period and will be available to join after 20th Jan'22.

I think Michael and Natalie have a fake storyline. I don’t get what their issues are other than Michael saying “we have a lot of issues”

Hot mess Darcey, let’s see how long this Georgie fantasy last

I cant stand Debbie... Is it just me?

The tell all was very good! Wasn’t it??? What was your favorite scene??

This is my favorite bowl ❤️

Update: In his IG stories, Paul states that Karine has filed a restraining order preventing him from contacting her or Pierre. On IG, he also posted what looks to be Karine’s statement to the police. The statement does have explicit descriptions of DV/SV and may be triggering, so I did not include it here but you can easily find it on his account if wanted. I hope they all get the help they need.

Lol how much Yara complains about New Orleans yet walks around with a Staten Island sweatshirt 🤣

I want to punch Debbie in the face... and I don’t even like colteee

I feel very unsettled with my job, career, and this economy.....but then I watch Jihoon and know it can always be much much worse. Relative happiness, it’s worth something 😃

Just discovered 90DF and completed my first season (s6) and then Happily Ever After. Some thoughts:
- Began as anti-Larissa but Colt basically wants to keep her as a hostage sex kitten under threat of calling cops if she doesn’t fall in line
- Jon and Fernanda - could’ve been a legit couple, had high hopes for them
- (Tr)Ashley - thoroughly unlikeable, doing it for social media likes
- Andrei is on the slope to domestic abuse
- Azan and Nicole - LOL that is a sham marriage if I ever saw one

Do you guys think the Brandon and Julia storyline is real? Can his parents actually be that horrid? Sort of feels like it’s all the producers telling them what to say. They often seem like they’re on the verge of laughter too. Thoughts? Am I creeping into a conspiracy? 😂
