What warning label would you put on your ex?

I'll go first: he'll never choose you over his mom.

Fiancé just revealed a lie they had been covering for a year (not infidelity). Pushes back us starting our life back almost 4 years, includes plans told to my family (who still don’t know). Their family was apparently “in” on the secret which is why they were against the marriage. I feel overwhelmed, betrayed and completely in shock. Any pieces of advice? Therapy? Professionals? Keep up lies? We’re both south Asians, still in love…

A girl (she’s 22/23) in my condo is showing keen interest in me. I’m 31M, single and feel this will be a disaster to proceed with. It’s not like that I hate her or something. I just never thought about her.

Also just recovered from a bad breakup after 7+ years of relationship.

Thanksgiving is upon us. Send help.

My step in laws are TERRIBLE. Not directly to me but family dynamic is stressful. They parent their youngest kid with pills and ignoring him, so that he does inappropriate things around me with zero correction (walking in on me, insulting me). They are all half siblings (4 boys 30-11) so they all don’t care including my partner. FIL also verbally abuses MIL in front of us. Yet they all want to please him constantly. It’s just bad.

Food was good though.

Indian 29M suffering from anxiety and depression. I tried to open with my family members back home and they just ridiculed me saying its just a state of mind and you are just sad and nothing more.

On top of that they are pushing me to get married. I tried to let them know I do not feel like talking to any of girls because of my state of mind. They are like once you get married it will go away on it own.

Afraid of taking anti-depressant but I guess no other option left

Just wanted to vent 😞

Wife wants another kid, I don’t. One I just don’t and two we haven’t been connecting lately so it doesn’t make sense to me. She’s threatened to leave me if I don’t want another kid and do what she can to keep our full time. I haven’t missed any moments of my child’s life and don’t intend on ever doing so. She also want me to spend a couple grand to go to a destination wedding for her friend that I loathe and threw a fit until I caved in. I’m exhausted!!!

What are some nice ways to friendzone someone? Lol

Sometimes I hear stories of men who send money back to their parents, but when my dad was alive and I tried to give him money, he just got angry at me and they gave me double what I tried to give them. Why wouldn’t they take it from their daughter, but they’ll take it from their son?

Hi fishes I heard that some of my friends are doing multiple full time jobs same time. Is that allowed? Will there be any impacts going forward? If yes what are they? Can you please explain

My father respects me more now that I am in the military, I understand him because he was a marine himself, but I can't help thinking how unfair that is. Glad I enjoy being in the troops!

My girlfriend and I are in our early 30s. A lot of our friends have recently moved out of the city and we are trying to socialize with new folks. Any similar experience? What are ways to meet folks?

Super serious sexy question. Wife and I are mutually busy and ambitious people (workout out, grinding at work, side hustles, saving money etc). We’re very similar in our approach to life, which is why we love each other so much, but as a consequence we have both felt like our s*X life has almost taken a back seat because we get swept up in our immediate day to day. How do y’all approach setting time for and/or prioritizing your s*X life? Open to all tips

Is there anything you did for your husband before your first child to make him feel special? He’s been so supportive and helpful for my pregnancy, I want to do something to celebrate him too.

People with kids, how much do you spend on daycare?

My brother (19, international student in the US) has apparently been in a relationship with a professor (or someone in faculty) for a few months. Not here to moralize, but while I’m unfamiliar with the US education system myself, I know this is now addressed very strictly. My question: is there any risk that my brother gets expelled (or worse?) over this?

Folks with kids - what's your routine for cooking, gym, home chores etc. ? We have a 2.5 year old toddler and we struggle to cook food, drop off our kid in daycare and then cook dinner and find time for working out. I am curious how other working couples organize and manage cooking, home chores gym. I am recently diagnosed with ADHD and curious how others make it work while working full time. Thanks!

How to handle the dual employment in BGV? I have a friend who have a overlap of 30-40 days from his last organization which is not disclosed in CV and with current organization. I feel UAN check will spoil it but his overlap is cuz he wasn't able to return assets back during COVID. Any suggestions?

My husband and I are ready to start trying for kids. I’m a little nervous about how much he wants a boy. He keeps talking about his little guy and the fun guy things they’ll do together. It’s not that he wouldn’t be a good dad to a daughter but he grew up with just brothers and largely male cousins. Still, I’m nervous because treating a boy and girl similarly is super important to me. Red flag or don’t sweat it?

Am I the only one that feels like I’m in an abusive relationship with my job? This job has brought me to lower and lower depths only to pull me up right before I’m about to quit. Kind of worried that this isn’t sustainable.

I have a pretty passionate hate for those who have “no fault” divorces. These people can’t keep one single promise in their life even when they have the choice of anyone on an entire planet and are not forced one bit into a decision.

I’m in my second long-term relationship (first was from age 16-20, he broke up with me). My current boyfriend and I have been together for 3 years and I feel like it’s time to end things. However, I’ve never ended a long-term relationship and it feels legitimately impossible. Our lives and families are so intertwined and I just don’t know what to do. How did you end your long-term relationship? Advice?
