Whenever I talk about something that isn’t really serious talk, and my SO doesn’t want to talk about it’s, he complains about a tension headache. Basically when it’s something he doesn’t want to talk about, he just starts massaging his temples, rubbing his head and says he has a headache out of nowhere. What do I do? Just not talk to him about anything if it’s not about a topic he wants to discuss?

This morning I woke up feeling just shitty about the whole situation, and he apologized about it this morning and asked if I wanted to talk about it. I just feel like I don’t want to deal with anything rn. Part of me wants to just express how I hate it when he does that, but what if he starts massaging his temples again 😂. I’m laughing outside but crying on this inside

funny

yeah I just imagine if you guys are in the middle of a really severe argument...is he gonna just say “I have a headache??!!” 🥴 kinda funny but also mildly alarming

Do you find that you have little patience for texting on the dating apps? I find myself trading texts for a couple of days and then ready to either talk, meet or move on.

Hi ladies! An old chestnut but would still love to hear your advice: i am fairly certain a key senior stakeholder is being difficult because he perceives me as a senior non white woman trying to boss him around.

TIA!

So I’m late to the Indian Matchmaking series. Is it the guy who has to be wealthy and the women who need to come from wealth? There doesn’t seem to be a lot of emphasis on what the women do for a living, but the men all seem either well-off or getting called losers. Is that what people look for in real life too? So there’s no place for women on the come up to be with someone above their own social class?
