CREATED: Sep 25 2023 at 22:04 by Ihavenoideawhattodo

So basically I feel like I majorly screwed over everyone I work with (including my boss) and I need advice on how I can make it up to them or even if I should just leave so they can find better. My father in law passed away after a long stay in the hospital and because of this, I missed around 4 days of work in a row (when it happened) and I worked a few (under 5) half days leading up to it to...

Recently watched a series about a Utah Polygamy Family. Have previously watched a series titled 'Empresses in the Palace'. Had a huge discussion with Adult Daughter about the concept of people who have open intimate or romantic relationships with more than one person at a time. It ended in a Massive Argument. I was shocked to discover how very different our view points are o...

Hi, looking for advice and or feedback from others with similar experience. I’ve been married to my husband for 14 years and whilst we are great friends, we’ve not had any intimacy for 12 of those. He’s just not interested and won’t discuss it. We do love each other but it feels just as friends now. I miss the sexual spark and the feelings related to that…to be honest we never had...

My boyfriend has a tendency to be "possessive" in the sense that he sometimes can get a bit insecure if I don't text him too much, etc. including when I spend some time with my grown kids. He now says if we live together he would not be that way because he would feel more secure. Should I believe him? I don't think he is lying to me but it seems weird that he cannot feel just...

I felt like my bf was becoming more possessive and controlling so I told him I need a break to think things through. Since then, he has promised to be more sensitive to my needs and give me as much breathing room as I want/need. He sent me a dozen red roses and lots of communications how about how much he loves me, etc. I just don't know if I can rely on his promises. Maybe he learned a l...

I’m concerned my partner is narcissistic or has narcissistic traits. I’ve been with my partner for eight years and we’ve nearly broken up four times. It’s generally over how controlling he can be. There’s not much room for my own opinion and he crosses over boundaries and quite often shows no respect for me. He’s a very obsessive person. Everything has to be how he wants it. Nothing ca...

My (53F) boyfriend (49M) came to me this weekend, angry, and said he feels like I am hiding things. When I inquired why, he said he "just felt that way". I asked him what he thinks I am hiding, but he did not have an answer, just repeated "It is a feeling". For reference, we both work from home all day. We take every break together and neither of us leaves for lunch. In t...
