We just met a wonderful kitten while camping in East Idaho. We’re flying back to Bay Area tonight and thinking if we should leave him here or drop him off at a local shelter or take him with us and find him home in the Bay. What should we do?
(My gf and I already have 3 cats between us and so we won’t be able to adopt this one unfortunately)

Do you ever feel like you’re just never going to experience real love or be that ‘special someone’ for somebody? I sometimes feel like I am defective in some way, because despite being in my early 30s, I have never felt particularly special to any guy I have been with- it’s always felt like I am the space filler until they meet the right person

Is San Antonio a good place to raise a family? Why or why not? We're thinking of making the move to be near family and have heard mixed reviews although generally positive.

I'm a US citizen living abroad I applied almost 11 months ago for my spouse. Married for years, kid. I wait and wait. It seems this will take 2 years, maybe more. I feel trapped. On one side the US system demands I work and domicile in US, the other side says families should be prioritized to stay together. My spouse has had enough of the process. I feel trapped abroad and locked in a dysfunctional system. We're just in limbo, it's depressing

3 reasons my husband is ready to be a dad, even though he’s never changed a diaper.

1. His text is so big on his phone you can see it 2 rows back and across the aisle on the plane
2. He yells at the tv analysts on cable news
3. He laughs at and makes corny jokes

Here we go, 24 weeks and counting!

Hello and congratulations to you all! About to be a first time father, as my wife is due in the first week of the new year ☺️

I couldn't be happier and I'm so glad this community exists for us to share all the joys related to new life. So happy for you all! 💕

Do you think all these violent and hate filled attacks are because people aren't getting the emotional/mental support they need, whether it's therapy at any age or help they needed but didn't get from a social worker as a child? My coworker is sure this is the case, but I honestly think there's actually something deeper wrong either with how these people are being raised as children, or how the warning signs these people give off are ignored or swept under the rug to save face.

Been with a girl for years. We get along well and enjoy each other's company. We're comfortable around each other, and I've generally been happy with her. As we've begun talking about marriage, I'm really giving some deliberate thought as to whether she's the right life partner for me. I'd pondered it before, but our relationship progressed very organically so never gave it too much serious consideration.

Now that I think of it, cont..

Debating when to have the first baby… would you say having a baby is totally worth it ? Worth all the struggles and sacrifices? Or should I wait an extra year just to save more money and enjoy life now without the extra sacrifices… (female 27 & want to have 2 kids)

My manager asked me to ask less questions. Lately I am receiving negative feedback that I find unfair. I've a different perspective and this request doesn't go with my personality, my role and with the fact that I am working remote. I am very independent, but I need validation on final things I do as I am not a manager plus, I am a curious person who likes to interact and to learn more. For me questions are a way to improve and to find new perspectives. This makes me feel sad and not motivated

How do you know if your cat would like you to get them another cat? 🤔

So. My cat just pooped in the very expensive yarn I'm currently using. How do I recover from this? I have half a hat and half a ball of now quite smelly yarn. I shook out all the crap but what do I do now? Ignore it and hope it airs out? Hand wash the yarn and let it air dry? Spray with febreeze and never look the person I'm giving this to in the eye again? Burn it and give up knitting until i no longer have a cat?
