Okay, I want to tell u short story happen between my boyfriend's mother and I. His mom and I aren't along together... His mom really started terrible everything to me for no reason. But she won't say apologize to me when she treated me so crap. Only she can say apologize to her son. I'm not complain but all I want is she need give me some respect. Because she called me "black *****" its so hurtful me deeply. She is Puerto Rican and I'm black woman. I never had experienced who call me like that in my life. So she told my boyfriend that I need to learn how to be a woman. I was like WHAT? I've been trying to take sit down and talk to her make solve the problem and I want to know why what's going on with her... She just stand up and walked away from me. She did cut the our conversation... So what does it mean to be a woman?

First off I know I may be wrong posting this and asking for advice but I'm at rock bottom. We moved in together, got engaged, and 4 months later he dropped the I don't love you anymore bomb. We decided to give it a shot. I changed for the better. I learned to cook, clean, wash, hold things in, left him love notes, surprised him with things, and even improved my attitude. I made sure he had breakfast in the morning and everything he needed for the day. Everytime we had a disagreement he would say get out of my house. This went on for 4 more months. Then one day he says I think you should move out. I said okay then he held me back and said no. I asked are you sure? Im about to register for college, my job just gave me an assignment, my daughter enrolled. He said yes. He reassured me. Then a week later he went out with his coworkers and I called him. He didn't answer and I kept calling. When he called back I was upset and hung up on him. I slept in my daughters room to calm down. We didn't talk for two days and I tried to talk to him to make peace. He said I don't love you anymore, leave. He yelled and got crazy. In the morning he said sorry amd I could stay till school is done in December. He left for an appointment. He came back amd said no leave tonight. He didn't allow my friend to come in and help me. He left and then I moved out which my family is 5 hours away. I changed my number and haven't heard from him since. I just need words of encouragement.

So, I'm okay with reading an article but I can't find it. I am curious, what are the exact statistics of life of someone with strict parents and vice-verca? (Or however you spell it) I'm curious, what would happen if I had no parents? How would my life be different? What would happen if I had parents who didn't allow any slack or mistake? I love philosophical views on this and I also love neurological and societal views. I'm open for any answer, and hopefully you have some sort of article that I can read too, that would be a very interesting read. I hope that I'll be able to figure out some of these statistics, thank you for any help!

So I know if it was child abuse I'd be able to intervene but in this case it's a husband abusing his wife. I live in an apartment complex in Florida. It's not a trashy area and everyone is pretty nice. My neighbor is really nice. She waves to us and she always smiles or says something to cheer people up. But her husband gives an unsettling feeling. Anytime he walks past he stares into my apartment through the glass door (or at least when I see him). He doesn't say anything or wave. He seems to give dirty looks as well. And a couple weeks ago when I switched my room with my sister I was closer to their apartment and could hear pounding and yelling from him. Almost every day I hear him yelling and her crying for at least 15 minutes straight. And a lot of other noises. I'm only 14 so idk what I could do but its hard to think I could stop this and I'm not. My moms went through abuse from my dad and I've seen friends who are older than me go through it and it ruined them so even though I don't know the lady personally I don't like to see people go through this kind of thing.

I am a 28 (going on 29) year old male who lacks experience with women. I have reached a point in my life where i feel that i dont know how to handle women or anything else in my life. My dating life is non existent and i dont have anything going on in my life. I graduated from varsity in 2013 with a degree in engineering but cant get a career started. I also live with my sister and family (husband and 1 kids). My life is at its wirst right now. Such that i feel ashamed to meet people younger than me out of fear they may have mlore going for them. This dryness has cripped into all my life now. I dont have a social life and hence no dating life. It hurts md so bad i cant do anything at times. Even cleaning my room. My sister now looks at me with a lot of pity. And there is nothing more sorry than a man who is pited. I feel i have let myself and all the people that love me down. I am failing not just ib dating but life. I have become a sorry sight. But dispitr all this that i am writing i dobt know wgat to do wto solve my prblem. I am trying to build my esteem but it is taking so long i feel there is no hope. at my age i feel i should be AT LEAST self reliant but i am not. be able to create a social life but i dont have. and be able to handle a relationship. i am asking or expecting too much??? where do i begin? it all feels so overwhelming.

but want to get back with him but he is in honduras. He was deported I am currently seeing other men since feel a sense of frustration for my husband not being around. I speak to my hubby everday. Should I stop seeing these other men. They are mostly "scoundrels" I guess. Signed tired

I m 17, and live in Texas. My mother has forced me onto medications before. They all made me gain horrible weight, depressed, or even went as far as attempting suicide. I JUST stopped taking psych meds after years and years of it because I finally convinced her that I DID NOT need them. I ve been doing so much better. Every time I ve been forced into birth control, I get huge and my hormones get horribly messed up. She s even given them to me without telling me, and even used to watch me take my pills and check my mouth/surroundings before leaving. I am not trying for a baby. In fact, I don t even think I can have kids. But, I wouldn t be upset if I got pregnant. I m in a long term relationship. Financially stable. Graduated. Able to fully support myself with no problem, etc. BUT we live with her. She threatens to ruin our relationship, take everything I own, etc if I do not take the pills. All they do is harm me. I don t know what to do. I know I don t have to consent to them, but I don t want her making my life hell and treating me like absolute **** because I won t take them. She s so horrible.. Read my comments on other answers before you go and insult me or give me yet another ignorant answer.

My best guy friend and I had sex last night. We didn't plan for it to happen (so obviously no condom). I'll be sure to take a pregnancy test even though it wasn't the right time. We were hanging out last night, like we do all the time, we went to my house, had dinner, watched a movie, and that's when things changed. We started kissing, and as it got more intense, hands started wandering, and it led to sex. I've had a crush on him for a long time, but never really knew if he felt the same way about me. Could this have been a sign, and the start of something? How should I talk to him about it?

I voluteered at a psych ward and there was this girl, she was 17. Same age as me. She Never spoke to anyone. The doctors had to drug her to get her to sleep, or force her to eat BC she would go without it for days. When they did the it, they had to hold her down and she would scream. Once i went to her room, she wouldn't talk to me. I sat there talking about random stuff like bands. When i left i could hear her sobbing. Her brother would come in to see her and we would chat.We still hang out and text each other. He is becoming a psychiatrist because he wants to help her.He told me that their stepdad raped her and that she fell pregnant. Their mother forced her to have an abortion to hide the evidence of rape.And then she started saying she hears babies crying at night and she went crazy. The parents are not even in jail. But the brother refuses to see them. I've been to the hospital twice after that, with the brother. She speaks to her brother, if i sit in the corner of the room and pretend im on my phone. She begs him to take her home and he has to say no. I can see that it really messes him up when she cries. Once I asked him if he goes to church and he laughed and said he doesn't believe in God anymore. I can understand why, but now I find myself doubting as well. What really gets me is that he's kind of become the "fixer" and when i see him trying to help everyone. I realise how much people can do and love and achieve without God. Should i continue seeing him? Would you?

She finally started her job today. We told her when she moved in it would have to be temporary and once she was working we would need her to help out with some expenses. She receives food stamps so she buys her own food except for the first month. She does help out around the house. We wouldn't charge her but she is used to living with other people and not leaving, so we thought asking her to pay something would give her reason to get her own place. What would be a good amount to ask her to pay and be able to save money to move soon?

so my boyfriend work at this fastfood/restaurant place, he goes in at 6 and gets out at 12 the gets home around 1 then go to sleep aroud 2 . we have a one month old son ill feed him at 3 so he can sleep then he'll get up at 8 to feed him then sleep till hes gatta go to work at 6 on his days off he'll sleep till 5 or 6. is something wrong with him ? im just worried i dont think its natural to sleep SO MUCH. He neglects his responsibilities sometimes cause he sleeps in so much its hard to have couple time cause he sleeps. i try to be understanding and let him sleep but i try to wake him up sometimes and he gets mad about it. what do i do?

Disclaimer: I'm not SAYING that this happened, or accusing any particular person. This is just hypothetical. Just imagine that this happened (I'm not saying it's true). Imagine you have these two friends, a husband and wife. I'll call them John, and Rose. Imagine that you briefly dated a guy who mistreated you and you wised up and dumped him. I'll call him Caliborn. One early morning you get a call from John and he's very upset because Rose didn't come home last night. Rose and John are close friends, you're really afraid, thinking the worst. John says that Rose told him she was going to the mall and would be home by 8:00 but she never came home, never called, and he gets her voice mail when he calls her cell phone. John calls Rose's mum, brothers, sisters, and finally the police. The police summon you to John's house and question you because you're the closest friend of Rose and John. You tell them everything that you know about Rose, John, and any mutual contacts. Back to Caliborn. You dumped him because he mistreated you. He wasn't physically violent, but emotionally violent, so you (rightfully) told him to go to hell. Here's the caveat: Rose introduced you to Caliborn, and Rose is still friends with him. Yeah, you should have confronted Rose about that, but it was a mistake to keep quiet. You and Rose have a LOT of mutual contacts and friends, but Caliborn is the only one whose number you have. (You remember his number.) You don't really see why Caliborn would know Rose's whereabouts, but you are worried that Rose is in danger and you reveal everything you know, in the hopes that any little scrap of information could save her from a horrible fate. It's not like her to up and disappear, you worry about mayhem, abduction, etc., and you feel like you should reveal everything you know. Later that afternoon, you get a call from John saying that Rose is back home and she seems to be okay but that he can't talk long because the police are back again and wanna talk to them both! Later you text Rose and John asking if she's okay and Rose just says, "I don't need anything," so you text back, "please call me." Later she calls you and says, I'm so sorry for making you worry, and you hear John saying, "You SHOULD be." John is clearly very pissed off at Rose! You feel like you deserve an explanation but you're torn because: If Rose was victimized or something, or there was a crime, she may be too traumatized to talk about it. I understand that. But, if she wasn't kidnapped/raped/etc., and it was her fault, you feel you deserve an explanation. Anyway, you start to ask but Rose hangs up on you. Then John calls you, and says, "You've always been a true friend to us and you deserve to know the truth," and he reveals that Rose was at Caliborn's house! The police must have found her and used the phone number you gave them to locate Caliborn. But, when John tries to explain things, Rose hangs up his cell phone. So imagine this happened, and you have so many questions, so many little missing puzzle pieces. You're not nosey but after what Rose put you through you feel you deserve an explanation. You call her and ask her what happened, but she says that "I was out and about." This really upsets you because it's obvious she's hiding something. It's impossible to know all the details, but you have an idea beyond a reasonable doubt. My question is this: Does it look like she was at Caliborn's house? If Rose is a good friend, why did she hide this from you? Does it look like she's lying? I know she's clearly hiding something. It's unthinkable that Rose would cheat, but it's obvious she's hiding something, and John is the more truthful of the two. On top of that, she changes her story and says that she was in an all night donut shop studying. If it's so innocent and all that, why can't she just explain it? She totally owes you an explanation! (Remember this is hypothetical) You're being questioned by the police, fighting back tears, with all kinds of horrible scenarios running through your head, like she's dead in a ditch or worse, abducted, being held prisoner with no way to get help, mayhem, all kind of evil things criminals do. Then she keeps saying she's sorry. She put YOU through trauma, too. You thought you would never see her again!! (In this hypothetical scenario) I've never hidden anything or been untruthful with her or given her reason not to trust me. She's not the friend I thought she was. I was faithful to her and she betrayed that trust by deceiving me. And on top of all that, she put me through a trauma of thinking something awful had happened to her. I studied criminal justice (the plan was to go to law school but that's another story) and I have seen some GRUESOME crimes. I know what's out there. ... If she had some innocent reason to go to Caliborn's house, why the hell would she lie about it? Caliborn, by the way, is a gross creeper. He's an illegal immigrant (I'm not putting ALL illegal immigrants down just the nasty ones, bc I know some decent immigrants) who dated you bc he hoped to use you for a green card, and you know he cheated on you but don't know (for sure) with whom. (In retrospect, you suspect it was with Rose) You would be pissed off why? If someone KIDNAPPED you at gun point, I guess you would prefer that NO ONE care enough to be worried about you! "But no one really kidnapped her..." For all we know, someone DID kidnap her. I guess I'm a horrible friend for going to the police to save her LIFE. I guess she's entitled to make her friends worry so that she can bang her "best friend's" abusive ex. She should be embarrassed because a. I went to the police myself, and b. because they MADE me talk to them! What was I supposed to do? RESIST the cops? The police said I HAD to talk to them. What would have happened if I had resisted? Who cares if I get in trouble with the police, because she's totally entitled to bang my abusive ex. Ok, cheating on her husband. I CAN'T believe it. And I understand we all have opposite sex friends that we hang out with. But, sneaking over to his house and LYING about it is not cool. If she had a valid reason she would have had a good explanation. Ok, cheating, that's between her and John but John is also my friend, too. She hurt him profoundly. I think it's totally my business. Ok, everyone screws up. I wouldn't turn a back on a true friend for making a mistake (unless they killed my pet or my mom or something and then, I'd kill THEM). I don't believe on turning your back on your friends, even if they commit a crime and go to jail. BUT my point is, that Rose isn't sincere and she is being deceitful and dishonest. If she doesn't give anything to the friendship, and it's one sided, that's not really friendship. She made her mom cry, and almost gave her granny a damn heart attack. And almost caused me to burst into tears, and put me through torment. She says it's sorry but her apologies mean nothing, because she has been given a chance to make things right. I would forgive her, but I will not be her friend if she can't be a real friend to me! John is also one of my closest friends so it my business. I WILL say this (the rest is hypothetical). He works really hard and provides his family with everything and Rose has all these nice things due to his sacrifice. He's been faithful (as far as I know, but then what did we learn about trusting people?) and everything else. If she loves him how can she do that to him? She must have realized how upset people would be that she was missing. Also, her husband thinks she needs to explain herself to me. I agree. She says she's sorry but won't make it right. She just continues to hurt me.

My mom does everything for this family. She works, takes care of her parents, and is still able to give what I want or need. My dad on the other hand is lazy and doesn't do anything. He doesn't cook, he doesn't clean, he works but isn't making anymore (if not less) than what my mom is making and he is never there for any of us. They are constantly fighting (I have been woken up three nights in a row now) I asked my mom if they are going to divorce and she said no but it's borderline. She said she is going to let him live his life and she is going to live hers but we will all be under the same roof. I don't mean to sound selfish but what about me? I don't wanna be woken up every night due to their fighting. I suffer from depression as it is and I don't need to be growing up around such negativity. I am going to start getting a job and giving my paychecks to my mom since I am still in high school and don't really need the money. Anytime my mom asks my dad to do the simplest things he whines and complains but when she does something for him he whines and complains about it too. They don't even sleep in the same bed anymore. He has been sleeping on the couch for about four or five years now. I don't know what I can do and it sucks... I don't want them to divorce but I want my mom to be happy. She and him have separated before but then got together again.

Saat ini saya memang baru menginjak 18 tahun dan pacar saya 20 tahun. Kami sama sama masih kuliah. Tapi saya sudah berpikir ingin menikah muda. Alasan yg mendasar karena saya tau pacaran hanya menabung dosa, makanya saya pikir menikan muda saja agar halal sekalian. Tapi disisi lain, pacar saya blm punya penghasilan dan kami masih sama sama kuliah. Bagaimana menurut anda tentang rencana ini? Mohon beri solusi

She says that its not forever. That she loves me and still wants to hang out and be friends like before we were together. But that's pretty vague. could be a day, a month, or a year from now, and that it's just not our time right now. Just in a dark place and would like some guidance or feedback.

While I was sick at home pregnant, my boyfriend decided to let some stress off by taking some young girl out to the movies behind my back . We've been together for 4 years . When i found him texting about it I told him not to go . He promised he wouldn't and when he went back to New Jersey to visit his family before school started back up ( we're both in college ) he took the girl to the movies , he said they kissed but they didn't have sex . But idk what to believe

I'm 19 and don't have the best relationship with my mom or sister, whom I currently live with. I was thinking about moving in with my boyfriend and his family but they live on the other side of the country. So I have the issue of getting my stuff where I need it to be discreetly. I really just want to move out without telling them but I don't have a car and don't know how to drive. Please help me... I'm really unhappy here and don't have a lot of friends.

mi pregunta en si era, ¿a que edad sabe uno lo que es el amor?, pero en seguida pensé que muchos me responderán que para el amor no hay edad y que en cualquier momento de nuestra vida podemos conocer el amor, PERO, seguramente si en vez de eso, digo que tengo 20 años y que estoy terriblemente enamorada muchos me diran que soy practicamente una niña que yo no sé lo que es eso, que necesito tener cierta edad para saber lo que es amor

My boyfriend of 5 years who I have an 9month old son with cheated on me with my best friend (which was her husbands idea) a month after I had our son now I just found out last week about this so you can imagine im not in the greatest state of mind right now but all I want to do is sleep with someone else so he feels the hurt that I feel. I am really considering this idea so please share your thoughts!

I am 26 about to be 27.. I feel like a fauilure.. Im so alone .. I am the only person I know with no kids and who isnt married. I dont even have a special person in my life. All my friends and family members are married they keep asking me when I am getting married my mom keeps asking me for grandkids.. It upsets me.. I have my own place .. college educated and a good job.. Still I come home to a empty house.. Ive tried online dating with no luck.. I just feel defeated.. Is this normal.. I want children so badly. I just feel like something is missing from my life.

Ok. Where do I even start to describe this horror of a human being I was with for years? She lied about everything...her name, her age, her immigration status, financial situation...3 men other than I were handing her $ to help with her household expenses. She told me she was 36, her daughter let it slip out one day that she has a 25 year old brother in Mexico, unless she this child when she was 11...unlikely. Turns out she is 45 years old, an illegal immigrant, used a stolen identity and SS# for employment. The employer found out, she liquidated the fake name, moved, and began using her real name. I found out the truth about everything and let her have it. I'm pretty sure I called her every name in the book. Because I chewed her out for her lies she took out a protective order against me in order to get herself a U Visa. She does not deserve to stay in our country, she lies and manipulates to everyone she comes into contact with. I have many documents and evidence against her, I need someone from a law enforcement agency that actually feels like doing real police work

So my parents r really protective as my mother abused me (I moved in two years ago) since then I have had no boyfriends to their knowledge but I think this is serious so wanna tell them. Here's the problem... my parents think that the boys parents used to know my mother and defended her during the abuse towards my dad (it does happen more than 40 percent of domestic abuse is against males) I've spoken to him about it and there can be no way that they did as the dad's never done the job my parents know the dad did and the mum hates my mother (she's hated in our town)

She is 4 years older them me and she hates games. At the beginning of our relationship i had to make all kinds of promisses and promisse i will never play games again. But it was my hobby, it is my hobby, i like it and i enjoy it. If she had a hobby i did not like i would not mind her keeping it. I do not neglect her in any way but if it happens that i want to play a game while she is there, she freaks out and tells me "you promissed you will not do it". I do not feel free and i do not know if she is right and if i am being unfair for wanting to play games?

She checks my emails and even logs in to my things so she can read my conversations that i have with my friends. I told her it is not ok and that i need my privacy. She hates games and if i talk to my friends about games she tells me that the friends i have are a bad influence on me and that they are "luring" me into playing games...and in case i do want to play a game, she gets angry and tells me it is unfair towards her since i told her i will not play games. She also freaks out if she reads that some of my friends mentioned some girl or send me a picture of someone, even though i can not influence what other people send me Is she being fair? What should i do/tell her?

Did he call, email or text to his mistress, to your knowledge, that he was done/over with the affair? State to you or mistress why? Did you ask them or they made that choice on their own? Did your SO feel the same way you do about that mistress (realized the woman was just a deceiving easy home wrecker)? Do you think a guy can ever feel the way his SO (whether wife, fiancé, or gf) feels about the mistress later on? A pre-requisite you have to forgiveness and/or moving on?  What do you think of a SO able to point out negative behavior about you to you (during communication whether or not argument or just everyday talk), but not point out the mistresses negative behavior to the mistress after the affair ended?  Think contradiction he has no issue to do that to SO but feel he is a wuss to communicate that way to the mistress even though he states he feels negative about her?  Ever had a mistress "genuinely" apologize and you did/didn't believe?

Just curious

Okay so a couple of weeks ago I overdosed on 22 pills and spend 20 hours that night and all of the next day throwing up as a result. I was at my dad's house (my parents are divorced) when it happened but he was out and I was home alone so he doesn't know. I don't really want to tell him because we have a really bad relationship (like, he abuses me physically and emotionally) and it was just after a huge fight we had that I OD'd. I told my mum about it when I went to her house and she broke down in tears.... I felt uber bad. I don't want to seem like an attention seeker by telling my dad though as I know that he will probably think that I am one. I don't know, does he need to know? Should I tell him? Or should I just keep it a secret? I OD'd to end my life not because I am an addict or anything just to confirm btw. And it wasn't for attention either.

I was his waitress and we were chatting about work and how I might be working for him soon. Only thing was he kept telling me he was married throughout the conversation and when he asked for my contact information, he said that he's strictly professional and that he's married AGAIN. I did nothing to approach him in any intimate way so why did he do this so many times? So odd..

If so what should I do? I have seen him at work many times and I am a bit creeped out.

I don't know if these are considered a lack of nurturing, but my parents have made me go barefooted around the home and in shoes most of the time while siblings were made to wear socks. I was also blacklisted from my indoctrination when we were all baptized as Catholics as infants, but now my parents left me out of my indoctrination last year when my violent 27-year-old brother and teen siblings got it last year. I'm now blacklisted by them also when it was my preference. I actually preferred indoctrination.

So my suitemate in college is blind and at first I thought she was also socially handicapped in some way but I overheard her talking to her friend on the phone and she acted completely normal. I haven't really talked to her much at all yet, but I want to make sure that I don't say or do anything that blind people tend to hate. I'm a pretty blunt person honestly, so ill probably mention something about her being blind, but what is the appropriate way to go about that?

I have had this problem my entire life, because I was too nervous, or my sister told my I was a doofus, a dork, a mistake. But over the years because of her I have grown into the kind of person that never speaks to anyone, doesn't have any friends, is always picked on, always gets into fights. A few times in the past I had a chance to let loose my rage on someone else but I chose not too thinking that they wouldn't be worth it, or they were puny and weak. The only way I have not harmed anyone is to keep it bottled up inside, only to someday see it explode with someone getting hurt in the process. Please if anyone has any advice, let me know, or let people know to leave me alone.

its distinctly personal....so you cant save me, and anyway im stuck in life. i cant escape it sry this was written by a depressed me, pls dont take it to heart anymore

I certainly don't want to get some injury that will f*ck me up for life and I think it's stupid to take unreasonable risks. I don't want to do anything insanely dangerous like do parkour off cliffs or train surfing or anything borderline suicidal. I'm talking about people who are willing to give up living their lives to the fullest, just to be safe. One of my dreams is to travel the world. Maybe it's selfish but my heart says I'll find a way. I love horses and have always wanted to learn to skillfully ride a horse. I also love the ocean. I see the risks in all these behaviors but I don't think they're unreasonably dangerous. I have a well meaning aunt who is always making me feel discouraged. Maybe she means well, but she comes off as kinda controlling. She says that world travel is too risky with all the unrest going on in the world, if I swim in the ocean or learn to surf a shark will eat one of my arms or legs and if I don't stop riding that I'll wind up a paraplegic. Don't get me wrong... it would suck to suffer any of those misfortunes and I wouldn't wish that on anyone. But, my dad rides horses and used to surf and he's not missing limbs or paraplegic and I know loads of kids, same thing. I already studied abroad in various Hispanic countries. I love Mexico and can't wait to go back. Oh, and my dream is to go to Japan. I love Japan, too... and Spain, and Italy, and England. I would hate to be killed by terrorists, or maimed, or permanently disabled. It's sad that it happens to anyone and it would really suck. But, your chances of being attacked by a shark or seriously injured in a riding accident or victimized by terrorists (IF you know what you're doing! You have to take certain precautions) are like, what, one several million? It just seems really sad to give up on stuff that would probably bring you joy, because of some remote chance of something bad happening to u. Driving a car is a million times more dangerous, but this same aunt thinks a car is a toy, and she gets mad when I remind her it's dangerous to drive and talk on the phone. It's like an activity is dangerous if it's cool, but mundane boring activities are inherently safe, and I think it's a ****** up attitude. The world is full of people who have been killed or maimed horribly by drunk drivers and I still drive. I don't drive drunk (I HATE people who drink drive!! I'd NEVER do that) and I don't talk on the phone and drive (equally dangerous). My aunt tells me to get a safe job and an apartment and have an ordinary life and I'm not ready for my life to be over. I'm 34... okay not "young" but I'm not old enough for my life to be boring. I think that it would be tragic to have some accident that ***** you up for life, but that's so remote. I think the real tragedy would be if I endure life in my little fear bubble and then when I'm a thousand years old... and I'm old and dying anyway in my rotten mushy depend... I look back on how boring I was and wish I'd taken chances, and wonder what would have happened. We're going to die anyway, right? Everything has some inherent risk and I think that it's best to take reasonable risks and know what you're doing rather than live in fear. Honestly? Having sex is really dangerous... there's AIDs and everything else. But I don't wanna be a virgin when I'm 50. How do I deal with people who tell me I'm immature and have poor judgement because I want to live my life, travel and ride horses and everything else? It would REALLY suck, hypothetically speaking, IF I had some tragic accident, but the key word is IF. I'd probably have joy, doing something I love. And if I did die, in some freak accident, I would rather it be having fun doing something I love than be a thousand year old lady in a wet depend in some grotscky little nursing home. How do I deal with people who are trying to run my life? It upsets me a lot. Why do people think I have poor judgement?

Tenemos relaciones sin protección y el me comenta que lo hace con su novia también....eso me preocupa...pues yo no quiero seguir...pero el deseo gana...pues al ser versátiles cuando yo no quiero, dice que le haga lo que quiera, no me hago mansa paloma...pero me siento mal de que engañe a su novia conmigo y yo tengo interés por una chava...estamos en una etapa experimental...pero no me siento agusto haciendo esto ya.

I don't like this feeling I absolutely hate it! I met this guy, and he's younger than me but not by much. He was my usher for a wedding. I've literally only known him for 3 days. Anxiously the past three days I was with him all day because of wedding rehearsals and such. But he lives in Germany!! I'm from the U.S.! What drives me crazy is that it hasn't even been a full 24 hours and I can't take it I miss him! And another one of the bridesmaids too and she lives in nyc. I miss them both so much it really hurt. I woke up 4 hours after I slept and I just felt nothing but just this pain because I miss them. Why am I like this? And why is it that every time I meet someone it's only a temporary and then I end up never seeing them again or for many years. I cried a few times and I don't understand why it's always this hard for me. No I can't just fly out to meet him or her I'm too young and even if he/she does visit his family in the U.S. What makes it so sure that I will see him/her?? I'm just frustrated and very very upset. And I'm sorry I'm ranting and sorry if this doesn't make sense but I have to just say something because keeping it in me is much more painful.

We were sexting but before she could send anything she had to go to bed, however before she went she made it clear that she may want to carry on in the morning ( she said stuff like " sleep well and don't forget to fantasise about me, I know I will be of you ;) x" ). Which sounds great but me being well me decided to almost spam her kik with really personally **** that's going on in my life ( her internet went down so I won't wake her up as she will turn it on in the morning, basically she won't receive the messages until the morning so I won't wake her up) now I don't know if I should spam her kik with random letters so she cannot see what I sent and claim I was just bored or leave it and kill the mood, destroying all chances that she will send what she was going to send. What do you guys think?

A so called trusted friend/coworker of mine leaked that info out about me divorcing. Now it's so awkward at work. The guys I suspected having a thing for me actually do. My manager said the guys here are waiting for it to happen. I've never been divorced before..not sure how to handle this at work. My office is 80% males.

I don't know what religion to follow. My religion is Jesus Christ. I believe in Jesus Christ completely as my savior that, he died for my sins and for the sins of others. My mother is Openly Catholic and believes in purgatory. I worry about her because, she does not fully believe in Jesus's Sacrifice. My sister only believes in God. She doesn't believe in Jesus and, she only prays when she needs him. I am worried about my wife because, she is all over the place and also believes in the lie of purgatory. I'm scared.for them and, I don't know what to do.

Just reaching out and going to explain my current life situation and see if anybody can give me guidance or help, any comment is appreciated thank you. im 19 in college, normal guy, well sort of. Problems i have with myself/life is. Im not social enough, i feel like nobody wants to text me, i have nobody i can call my close friends, i feel like people call you there friend in front of your face and snake on you behind your back, i have no girlfriend and i lost my virginity to a girl i didnt like just because i felt i was losing out. I have times when im at a party and i feel ver sociable, THen i have times where i feel nobody wants to talk to m, no girl is intrested in me and people dont want to be around me, but its weird. People have told me im cool, and people have told me im a cute dude, so is it all in my head? i dont know, im just tired of not living a fufilling social life. Often at parties when nobody talks to me or when i try to start up a convo and it goes nowhere i get depressed, and talk inside my head the whole night and want to cry, asking myself, why cant i talk to girls like him, why cant i have a conversation like him. And each night this happens i promise myself the next night wont be the same but it ends up being the same for the most part. I feel people look down on me and do not realize my full potential. At times i feel like i could be the most socialable, talk to the most girls, and be the life party, but people quickly shoot down that hype because of their first impression of me. I have dreams and goals, and inside my head i talk to myself and i know i can do it all, be sociable, get girls, acomplish my dreams, do well in school. But in reality it all falls apart, and i end up crying everynight because of my unfufilling life. Anybody have anything they can share? how to get over this feeling, or get over this at all?

I have noticed in the last years that I get excited sexually with almost all types of women. I love sex from the most artistic and conventional to the most filthy. I am 26 years old. Is it outrageous? What do women think about it? I appreciate your sincerity.

I know my mother does this with me and my siblings because she has anxiety, and, for the first time in my life, I'm catching myself acting like my mom (lol). The difference is I have no diagnosed anxiety, nor children of my own. But now I know how she probably feels. I've had 2 instances recently now where I've worried about a loved one dying. One was when my best friend and I were on a road trip the 2 of us and it was getting late/dark and she had been driving and about 2-3 hours into the drive I started worrying on and off about crashing/death (illogically). She refuses to let anyone drive her car, but given the whole drive was 6.5 hours I kept worrying about her (and myself, but mostly her) dying. The second instances is about one of my siblings. She's camping on a trip right now with friends in the mountains and I just worry about them crashing their car their renting or somehow getting into a life-threatening situation abroad. Are these normal worries to have? I feel like I'm turning into my mother worrying about things that are so unlikely to happen lol

Ever since I could remember I have been sexually attracted to guys who are older. Much older. I've never told anyone, but I was curious and looked in an app that let's you meet new people. I then met this guy 30 years older than me, he seemed really nice and what not. I told him of how I am 19 and liked older guys like himself. He said that he liked younger girls himself. We kept talking and made plans to hang out and even do other things but I couldn't because I was busy, and then he was busy. So my question is should I meet up with this total stranger and do stuff with him or save myself for the right guy? He says he won't tell anyone we did anything and we'll use protection but I'm just scared someone will find out and my reputation of being a good girl will be ruined. I really want us to have sex but I don't know if it's the right thing to do? Please give me your honest opinion,I really don't know what to do.

Before I continue I would like to let it be very known that I live in Seattle and Washington's age of consent is sixteen no matter the age gap. Over the summer I would visit my father at work and there was always a man who would stop and chat with me. I thought he was very gentlemanly and took a liking to him instantly. We would talked for a week when my dad introduced him to me as his boss. He'd been completely unaware since my father and I don't share a last name, his being a common Caucasian name while mine was clearly Latino. I figured he would stop speaking to me however he wanted to talk to me after and said that it was shocking but didn't bother him and that he'd like to take me on a date. I was hesitant since I had no dating experience but he understood and didn't pressure me to say yes though I finally did. We continued to see each other all summer. He told me that he would like a serious relationship with me now and wanted me to move in with him when I turned eighteen. That is nearly a year and a half away and while I am perfectly fine with the current state of our relationship he says he wouldn't mind if I tell my parents. On another note his son is years older than me and knows of our relationship. He tells me that I am just using his father, who has been divorced for 20 years now. He is very unhappy with the age gap, me being 16 and his dad being 41 I know I'm young but I need some actual advice for both situations. I simply ask that you try not to judge me.

Ive been going out with my boyfriend for a few months now and I honestly think Im in love with him. My past relationship ended really badly and it took me 2 years before i met my current boyfriend. I have terrible trust issues.. even though i know my boyfriend is honest and caring and i do just him, sometimes i feel like i should end things before i get so deep that I end up worse than last time. Im afraid of getting hurt again.

I'm 21 years old but I feel like I don't act like an adult much. What are some adult aspects. I'm not that motivated in my spare time I don't really do productive things. I get upset over small things. I just don't feel mature. I'm in a relationship and my partner says I do not act like an adult. Please give me some tips and advice on how to start changing

This is the first time that I have had a very well decent boyfriend who I've had very strong feelings for and he came to me and asked me what I thought about him applying to University of North Carolina Chapel Hill and I said that it would ruin us. I got really upset and came back to my parents house. He called me and asked what I really thought and I said, I'm in love with you and don't want to lose you ever, but you applying to University of North Carolina is going to kill us and ruin our relationship. We live together here in Michigan, but if he applies and gets in, there is no chance of us ever seeing one another again. I'm having a hard time wrapping him wanting to apply out of state to a university and me staying back being lonely for him. Would you let him go if he was to apply and get in? He says there are other options for us to be together, but I don't see it happening if he got into school down there. He's 26 and I'm 25. I want what's best for him but I don't want to lose the only man that I have ever really had serious feelings for and have fall in love with over the course of a year and a half. I don't know if I could handle it if he was to get in. He has looked at other law schools near us, but seems to have no interest in them. He sent me an email that has a link to the website for the school and I said if you want to apply go ahead, but trust me it will ruin us in the end. He hasn't replied back or called me about it yet. I know he wants to go and do something better with his life but I don't want to lose the man I have fall in love with either to school.

So, I went to my brother's freshman orientation. The school psychologist was there. I said to her my brother will need her enlistment (help). She refused to talk to me. There were hotdogs nearby, I grabbed one and shoved it in her mouth. The cop tried to restrain me and I said I was infected. He then started laughing hysterically and came back in a firefighter suit. I then put on an alien costume and gave her a sucker punch. She told me she didn't have sex because my thingy reminded her of Brad Pitt. Was she wrong LOL?
