Why is it that a lot of couples I know living in big cities are in open relationship?

What do you guys do when prospects or clients bring their kids with them? Have found this to be super distracting...

How did you meet your spouse and how did you know they were the one?

Finally cut my father out of my life.

Protect yourselves. Emotional and psychological abuse is no joke.

Silly question but, how did you make close friends when you first moved to Miami? Feeling like a fish out of water, from Texas.

My company will file the green card for process for me soon and I’m planning on getting married at the end of the year. Is it better to file as single or as married so that my SO will also get their gc too, but will it impact the timeline? I heard the process for Chinese always take so long. (FYI- I’m not Chinese nor Indian. My SO is Chinese) Is it better to file it with my SO or as single? Does it matter?

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

Before I get over my crush I wanna punch him in the face because I didn’t go out of my way to find him, he found me and caused the pain that’s been hard to get over. It was not my fault 😞 stuck between losing a friend, telling him how I feel or ignore him forever.

Asking for a friend: is a relationship with an AI-based Replika app cheating? For my friend, Replika has been helpful for mental health discussions, but also role play.

How many of you are actually looking for a relationship or have accepted being single forever?

Coming from a family of immigrants and being one yourself, does anyone ever feel a sense of guilt with your success/salary versus your family members? If so, how have you dealt with this? Any suggestions on how to deal with it internally and emotionally?

Does anyone else dread flying back home to spend a weekend in the town you grew up in? The older I get the harder it is for me to go home and visit for the weekend. How do you deal with the anxiety of going home? I love my family and am fairly close to them. I have another sibling that lives out west. Our parents support us living out of state and don’t blame us for moving out of our tier 3 Midwest city(just an opinion).

To the parents out there. Would you have kids if you had the chance to do it over? I go back and forth about having a child. I know I don’t want to have one of my own DNA. I would like to adopt. There are already so many kids in need out there.

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.

This shelter in place is finally starting to have an impact on me. I have a good core group of friends but I am having a hard time sustaining the relationship in this environment. So much alone time to reflect on things in my head and I’m finally starting to feel lonely. Am I the only one feeling this way?

Trying to get a 45 y/o sibling in to consulting (was an entrepreneur prior in the restaurant industry). No college degree but willing to bust his but to learn. Books/online courses recommended pls

Boyfriend got off the phone when the argument was his fault. Thinking about being the bigger person and calling him to resolve it, but realized I’m the one who always calls back and apologizes first. I want him to but also don’t want this to drag on. Thoughts?

This might be inappropriate but how often are the rest of you having sex with your significant other or spouse? We have little kids and I work 75 hours a week so I am lucky to hook up twice a week and even that is tough to schedule. My wife takes it personally if I am not all over her so I try to make an effort even when I am dead tired. But honestly lately I have been dreaming of a sexless marriage and anything else that will take some of the pressure off me.

Do other tech parents keep their kids away from social media? My daughter is 12 and I'm apparently the 'worst mom ever' because she can't have social media and I turn off the wifi at night.

Anyone heard of Matter Communication? If so, care to dish? Good work? Good place to work?

Do you guys have a height preference? I’m talking to this guy who’s really sweet and I really like him but he just told me he’s way shorter than me(4-5 inches) and I don’t know if I should continue talking or just end it here. I always go for someone taller. I don’t care about physical appearances much but Idk if I can get over the height difference of this magnitude

Before I get over my crush I wanna punch him in the face because I didn’t go out of my way to find him, he found me and caused the pain that’s been hard to get over. It was not my fault 😞 stuck between losing a friend, telling him how I feel or ignore him forever.

I hate the world “guncle.” It makes me sick to my stomach. Someone called me one today - I have 8 nephews / nieces. I do not want to be called a guncle. Curious if anyone else dislikes this term?

Fellow gay fish. Thoughts on a PPO v HDHP (w/ HSA) for health insurance? I’ve always done the PPO with higher premiums because the high deductible scares me, especially with 4+ visits to PCP and lab draws, plus other STI testing. Anyone else have experience or advice on selecting between the two? I did some modeling and it seemed like the HDHP would be better but would love additional advice.

Anyone in Mexico City?

Just moved to NYC. 28 M Desi looking to make friends in the city.

Gays bottom, how do you clean yourself "down there". This year I started to bottom more. I spent the last 5 years being 99% top, so I don't know how to prepare myself. How much water is too much? And so many other questions...Any other technique?

Has anyone ever done a gay cruise? Or one of those gay weekend events? Thinking about doing one later this year - October or November maybe? Anyone interested

Hope everyone’s enjoying the holiday weekend 🥰 I went out last night in DC - has been years since I went to bars here. I def felt like I was the oldest guy out and about - really young crowd - but still felt confident. I have limited my Instagram by peoples recommendation on here, and it’s giving me my life back. I did not feel as nervous and self conscious. Anyway - ✌🏻🌹 If you struggle with body image issues like me then getting off IG works wonders.

Folks with a smaller 🍆 - how do you deal with it? 75% of the time I am fine with it, but sometimes just get sad that there isn’t anything I can do about it. Looks are a big thing in the gay community and I know that I will always be judged by its size (even if people say they don’t judge)

Would you be jealous if your partner wanted to remain friends with someone they had sex with?

I am in a long distance relationship with someone who is currently in B school. He spends pretty much all his breaks and holidays traveling with his classmates. Most of the time I am fine. But for some important holidays and my birthday, I told him we should spend time together. He just said it’s more important for him to bond with his classmates and ignore my ask. It’s really disappointing and I don’t know what else to tell him. Is that a reasonable ask or am I being dramatic?

This is the longest I’ve gone without any sexual activities with another person. I’m dying.

I want to settle down and have a family, but I think I’m too picky.

Decided I finally want to try to get back into shape after years of neglect. I found a personal trainer a few months ago that can work around my schedule, but the quote I received last week seemed really high. It’d be 1-on-1 and at a private studio, so I knew it’d be slightly expensive, but the monthly cost is like $1,500 for 12 sessions. Is that reasonable? This is in a HCOL city.

For those of you who are based in NYC, what are you all doing for New Year’s Eve?
