Welcome! I was hoping to connect with parents (dads/moms) in the same boat as myself. I have a surly 13 year old that is constantly pushing the limits. Some days he’s great and most days he’s nasty. It’s quite baffling. What are your strategies to deal with your teen kids?

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

Boyfriend has seemed to be dropping a ton on me lately, even after I got bad news that my company is t doing so hot this week and layoffs are approaching. First it was that we may be moving to another state for his job, then it was that his brother may need to move in with us for a few months after he graduates

It’s just a bit overwhelming at this time and I’m not sure how to communicate through all of this being thrown at me. 3 yrs together and we were friends for many years before that.

Met up with my ex today and was truly happy for her growth. It inspired me to write a song about my feelings just now.

I 130 bona fide marriage - got married to a US citizen last weekend. What do submit in 130 to prove bona fide marriage? We met during corona and didn’t travel anywhere.. also didn’t take pics as we were not thinking about immigration stuff.. open a joint account??

If even Kim K couldn’t hold Pete down (Aka make him fit his life around her schedule) what hope is there for other older women with younger men…

My fiancé will NOT stop talking about her ex. After I found out they were texting arguing she justified it by saying it was about the dogs and not them. Even though Her social media is full of his pics. She still sends him $50 a month for dog food, still goes to work right by his place and suspiciously needs keys. I try to bring it up and I get dismantled for being too mean and making “false accusations.” How much more obvious can it be?

Parents went to a friends house today. That friend said they were in contact w someone who got tested positive for covid this past week. 1. What’re chances my parents may have it? 2. How do I tell them to stay in their room at their own house?

Looking to move to San Antonio and we're looking at places in Alta Vista and El Dorado. Pros and cons? We have two kids under five, so looking for a nice family community with good schools.

Are there such things as "homemade watch making kits"? I ave a buddy who is meticulous and showing him and telling him about my very limited knowledge of watches, he was intrigued.

My sister & I don’t get along because i feel she is extremely rude & prefers outsiders over family. My parents however, despite the fact that she disrespects them too, always say she is our daughter & we have to deal with it so just let her be. My mom thinks she is not in a good financial state so we should help her & I don’t want to given her disgusting behavior. Every time i buy something nice for myself, my mom kind of pushes me to buy for her too, and I don’t want to. Continued..

Just found out my boyfriend of 3 months (talking stage was about 6 months before making it official) slept with his ex a couple times while we were talking. After we agreed to be exclusive. Without protection. I’m so crushed 😞

Real estate help: Boyfriend and girlfriend buy a home together with a loan from bank. Boyfriend and girlfriend are now separated and both agree that girlfriend will live somewhere else. Both agree that they would like to take girlfriend off the deed but also off the hook with lender bank. What would you do in this situation as attorney for girlfriend?

Anyone have to retake their NIPT test? My results came back as insufficient quantify and I’m freaking out. I’m 11.5 weeks. Not a high BMI or anything so I’m worried something is wrong with my baby

Just venting. My husband is so much into watching his tv show that he is not at all interested in planning the baby shower or even in making the registry. It just feels that I am doing everything right now and his priorities are just around watching his TV show. I get that he needs his me time but our baby shower is few weeks away and we have not sent out the invite yet, do not have the registry finalized (I cannot do it as he wants to be involved or will make changes over my selection). Contd…

Feeling a deep void in close human connection after letting go a relationship that was lacking a future (I was interested in something more, he was unsure). Can’t stop thinking of reaching out and need strength to just stay with the loneliness and have hope for the better times. Would appreciate support. It’s been 2 weeks but I feel bouts of extreme sadness and desire to have someone to share my life and days with.

Would you consider yourself FIRE if you quit, but your spouse is still working?

How do u keep communication in a relationship if one person is emotional & other isn't (ex check-ins, how to recover from a fight, best way to not hold a grudge if something was said out out of anger)

My gf and me call each other everytime we have free time. However lately she seems disinterested in phone time. She never initiates calls anymore and she tells me she wants to hang up in the middle of the day and not right before bedtime. We live a 4 hour drive apart. And I told her this is like living together from a distance, because I put her on the house speakers. What can I do to keep her engaged?

Does anyone else feel like having kids is the only acceptable reason to not be in the office 24/7? If I choose not to have children, do I not have any valid reason to have a life outside work?

Well, I was the one who broke it off. I couldn’t get him to love me the way I needed or even respect me enough. It’s been 6 weeks of not seeing each other. We messaged this week. He doesn’t get it…. His messages show he still doesn’t know what he wants. Yet, if I am totally honest, I hate how part of me wishes he would do a grand gesture/finally decide to be a better man. It’s delusional. It’s crazy how love can be so rosy, sweet & blinding that the red flags seem surmountable.

So much work, so little time😭

Thoughts/experience on moving from NYC big law to Miami big law? Hours, work/life balance, salary, etc.

My son often says “this is my worst day ever” and “I should have never been born”….when I ask and make a big deal of it he says he’s “joking”. I’ve told him it’s not funny at all and that we could take medical help if needed (which goes into another argument that I think something is “wrong” with him). Is this normal? Anyone else face this issue?
