Would it be weird to send my ex a goodbye letter in the mail? He leaves for a military deployment soon for almost 1 year, and I generally care / miss him.

We mutually broke up, given the long distance almost 5 months ago. I care for him deeply and haven't spoken to him since. I honestly just want to handwrite him a nice goodbye note and wish him luck on his deployment overseas.

My younger brother likes a girl from his college but will not tell her or go out with her. He won’t tell us why but we suspect it’s because the girl, although very pretty, isn’t as ‘slim’ as a conventionally good looking person. We also suspect his guy friends don’t consider the girl to be a great catch (!). We can tell he is struggling with this but not sure what to do. Has this ever happened to you? How can I help my brother break out of this? Any advice?

Men: What does this mean? Been seeing him for a month. Asked if he is still seeking out other women. He said no and that he has been enjoying my company. I told him I don’t plan on seeing anyone else and he said the same. He brought up that he wants a serious relationship with me but feels he can’t right now because of a demanding new job. I told him I don’t want to rush into anything serious. He acts very couple-like when we see each other. I am not sure how to interpret this.

I don’t understand how someone can lie about loving you for 6 months. We were together for almost a year (broke up a week before our anniversary). I said I love you first and he said it back. I asked for more reassurance last month with saying I love you more often. Now all of a sudden he said he didn’t know if he loved me and that love meant marriage for him. Okay well great thanks for telling me this now, 6 months after it was initially exchanged. I don’t understand how he could do that.

My SO and I are struggling to prioritize which social obligations to attend separately vs. together. With events back in full force (weddings, birthdays), we try to pick the ones that matter most for joint attendance — then do each other the favor of taking the rest separately. Recently, I’ve started to feel an imbalance in how often I’m showing up for him vs. him for me, and I’m starting to resent it. I’m even tempted to back out of things I’ve committed to attending with him. Any advice??

Not like we had a fallout. I just don’t particularly care about her or pretty much about anyone else. In a different life, I think I could have been a serial killer.

My husband quit his very well-paying job in February to become a freelancer. I was fully supportive of this move because he was miserable at his job. He is hustling and trying to find work but it is slow. We are depleting our savings and I am stressed about our financial health and feel like retirement is getting pushed further out. I am struggling not to feel resentful. I don’t want to push him back into a career he hates but also feel like part of being an adult is making hard decisions.

When, or if you set time aside to take care of yourself or do something for yourself, what do you do? I'm realizing I don't really have any "healthy" ways of relaxing outside of work, so drop whatever you got. It's starting to affect my personal life and I'm worried I won't be able to have healthy relationships unless I can take care of myself first.
