Posted: 05 Jul 2017 01:36 PM PDT

I'm moving from New York to California for college in about 4 weeks and idk how I'm going to feel being 3,000 miles away from my family. I mean I'm 21 so it's about that time I move away. But now I'll barely be able to see my family. Probably like once every 3 months. What are some ways to deal with home sickness? Please no sarcastic answers

Question: Why again, goodbye my lover my best friend...?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 12:35 PM PDT

I've been dating a beautiful individual for two years. Before this relationship I was in a 6 year relationship with the father of my son. That obviously didn't work out and we separated, we would constantly fight about family, finances, house chores, not enough time, sex and "you never want to do what I want to do!" Yesterday my fiancé and I got in an argument. It was 4th of July, I wanted to go to the park to fly his new drone and have my son ride his car. His nephew texted hours later and asked him if he wanted to go join them to go swimming and although I know how much he loves to swim I thought he would prioritize and spend 4th of July with me and my son but he didn't. I would of joined him, since he did ask. But I would of needed to take my son to my mother's and she already helps me enough through out the work week so it just didn't feel right so I asked him to go without me and have fun. He's 28 and I'm 25. Due to my life decisions I've been living the life of maybe a 35 year old. I like to prioritize and allocate my time appropriately in a way that makes sense, going swimming on 4th of July with his nephew and an old friend did not. I felt like staying home with my son was best so i did...

Question: My aunt and my sister were wiggling their pinky's at me?

Question: Girlfriend has 50/50 custody with the father of her daughter. But there is also a step dad in the picture?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 11:39 AM PDT

So we have been BF/GF for about a year and we are trying to have a kid of our own and plan to be married soon (insight to how serious we are). Now my gripe is my GF has a daughter which she already shares 50/50 custody with the biological father. Now her ex (stepdad) was there as the child grew up and the child calls "step dad" dad...the lil girl talks to Stepdad on face time and occasionally will stay with him during my GF and I time to have her... in my eyes the ex or step dad shouldn't be in the picture anymore because I'm there trying to be the second fatherly figure for the child. Is it wrong for me to think that. Is there a such thing as a step step dad. I've talked to my GF about this and she sees nothing wrong and her excuse or reasoning is that step dad has been there for the our lil girl from when she was a baby. So as of now it doesn't seem like step dad will be leaving the picture. Side note.... my GF sees the ex mother as her own mother to include the rest of his family. And mind you the ex would be upset if I were to be around.. my GF has stopped talking to his family and stopped seeking support from them to ease me. But I can't get over that I habe to share my lil time I have with my lil girl with a guy that isn't even her biological father which she has in the picture already. I just want to know any advice and if I'm in the wrong. Thank you for any opinions and advice

Question: What kind of logical fallacy is this?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 11:18 AM PDT

Mom and dad are divorced and dad picks up their child because its his visitation time. The next day the dad demands that the mother bring over a pair of the child's snowshoes. The mother refuses and the dad responds, "So you want her to get frost bite and lose her toes then? Okay, good to know."

Question: Is it common for people from the Midwest to call their parents "Mom" and "Dad" when talking about them instead of "my mom" and "my dad"?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 10:36 AM PDT

Question: Would this make them siblings?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 10:28 AM PDT

Ok say a man gets married to a woman and during that relationship the woman gives birth to a child that is not his. (So the child has no blood relations to the father) The woman dies leaving the kid with the father and the father reamrries to a woman who has a kid. Would that daughter and the kid be related?

Question: Help, I need to regain my parents' trust?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 10:24 AM PDT

I recently had 2 incidents with underage drinking and promised I would never again do it, which I intended to keep. However, last night being the 4th of July, I drank a little bit and with my luck got caught a THIRD time. I had not overly drank, it was mostly a couple sips here and there but it showed up on the breathalyzer we have at home. My parents took my phone and told me I would not be attending a concert I was going to see this weekend. I'm currently grounded and I really don't know what to do - I think I ruined my summer. I need some advice and help on how to better this situation and regain their trust and be allowed out of the house and getting my privileges back. I just need help because at this point I feel hopeless and purposeless and disappointed in myself.

Question: Have you cut off a family member? When did you decide it was necessary? Do you regret it?

Question: Do I have a right to be upset? What should I do? (Sorry I sound illiterate, I only had so many characters and this story is so long lol)?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 10:10 AM PDT

So my bf fam owns a business and the neighbor girl and I both work there. The girl likes my bf's bro. She is has been doingstuff like stealing, breaking and enter, lying, etc. my bf and I have told his fam this many times and have proved everything I just told you she did. And they still love her! My bf's bro doesn't like this girl at all, they hooked up a couple of times but he just did it for fun. she's obsessive over him and she uses his fam to get to him. My bf has a sis (10yr) and we get along great and I'm always buying her expensive stuff, having sleepovers, taking her out, etc. this neighbor dont do anything for her! But the sis seems to like her more than me and the sis is starting to be rude and cool to me. I'm a Cosmetology and this girl isn't. She's sparked interest in it so I told her she should go to college for it. My bf's gma came in and said "Well she doesn't need to waste money on school. She knows how to do it all. She does it all the time and she's so good." It hurt because I went through two years of schooling to get where I'm at today. Then yesterday his mom had the girl do her hair! I was literally at her house and she called the girl over! All she(girl) can do is braid. I'm really good at hair and I've worked so hard at it. I own my own salon and I make amazing tips and I have even done it for models. My bf and I are so upset about this. We had to leave a fam party because I was so upset with his mom. Do I have a right to be upset about all this?

Question: My uncle and aunt are getting divorced. I am expected to hate the aunt now. How should I treat her if I have to see her?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 10:06 AM PDT

I don't hate her but the family expects me to. My uncle is the blood relative and his wife wouldn't support his recovery from alcoholism so he is divorcing her. His kids are distraught and sons back the Dad and daughters back the Mom. He is the one leaving her and yet my Mom and her sibs hate his wife for it. So when I see his wife around town do I act nice? What do I say when Mom gets mad that I was nice to her? I have been given the assignment to hate her. I don;t hate either of them and find it sad they are quitting after 26 years. Both are at fault but I am not their kid so not involved or taking sides as it has little effect on me.

Question: How do I get over feeling so sad that I missed the family reunion this past weekend because my Mom is mad at her brother?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 10:02 AM PDT

I had to miss all the fun my cousins were having with my grandmother and aunts and uncles and my Mom's extended family. We had to miss it because for the 3rd year in a row my Mom wants us to be outsiders because her brother is not the easiest to get along with (estate issues mainly and his greed). How do I get over feeling so sad about this? I asked her if I could go with my aunt and my Mom said no and was mad I would even consider it.

Question: My Mom is a person who is one sided. What danger should I be aware of in a person like this?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 09:59 AM PDT

In her eyes if you are at odds with her then you are all bad. If you are on her good side then you are the greatest person ever. I am not at risk of being on her bad side since I am her kid but I am expected to hate who she hates but most the time I don't hate who she hates. She also has family members she likes only because they are united against a greater evil person (whoever that may be). Like her brother's wife she liked when the two of them were united in hatred of my Mom's sister. Now that that has passed and her brother is divorced she hates her brother's now ex-wife and expects me to hate her.

Question: Should my parents get a divorce?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 09:48 AM PDT

My parents have been married for 17 years (May 27, 2000), but there's been far too many issues. Yesterday especially (worst fourth of July EVER), my dad absolutely lost his mind. He kept calling us insane, saying that we don't listen to him, threatening us with violence, and implied he didn't want us anymore. Later, he said that we weren't allowed to celebrate the fourth of July because we hadn't been good and he called my mom and I liars for no reason. Everytime we try and talk to him, he either yells at us or refuses to listen. He about blew a gasket when I couldn't find a blank piece of paper to do my homework, neither could my mom. Then he complained about everything that we have done wrong in all the years we've been a family. It's madness. When I woke up this morning, they were fighting again. My mom looked over and he had taken our phones (later admitting they were in the lockbox, but without surrendering the key) and it was all because "we were insane" and "bad" yesterday. My friends have asked a lot over the years if he is abusive, I denied it. But I don't trust him whatsoever. Especially since he thinks he is some dictator. My mom and I left around 4:30am and it is now almost noon. She even said she is considering divorce quite seriously. But my dad won't hear of it because he won't talk to us unless we apologize and stuff. He really scares me and I think he is losing his mind.

Question: Spouse or Kids- Who are you supposed to love more?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 09:38 AM PDT

Imagine If both your spouse and kids were drowning and you could only save one of them, who should you pick?

Question: What can I do with my kids?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 09:28 AM PDT

I dont want family life anymore. It isnt for me. Dad wont sign over for adoption but he wont take custody either. So what are my options? Im meant to be single, not a family person! I DO NOT need any "therapy". This isnt a mental health issue. I am just not a family person. They need permanent placement, not bounced around to abusive foster homes. Foster homes are only in it for the stipend check that they get from the state. I have a job, I cannot "spend more time with them"

Question: I am 17. I don't have my own bedroom. I sleep with my mom.?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 08:48 AM PDT

We are broken home, so you know. I sleep with my mom and my bro with my dad. But really just to be frank, i feel like so strange for 17 without an own room. I've told my mom before but she said "don't do anything like that, because i need you to sleep with me, don't want be alone". But seriously i need PRIVACY, i need time for my self. Sometimes i want to read the book/ watch movie but i can't coz my mom always there, so i need to wait until she goes somewhere so i can do my normal activities and hobbies. My mom is strict, we are asian you know. This is already like our culture that parents should know anything about their kid things, so when i read a book, it'd be trouble. She'd ask me "What do u read about? Don't read anything odd" (For god's sake, thats ******* art man! Nothing odds) also when i do watch movie, you know some movies have love stuffs part that we can't avoid, if she sees it, she'd yell at me and kill me. Anyone that has any advice for me, i'd really appreciate it coz i'm always confused about it, If i move to another room, i'd feel sorry to her but if i don't, i'd never have my privacy. What should i do? Thank you...

Question: Have you ever not been invited to your grandchildren's baptism?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 07:57 AM PDT

My fiance was not invited to his grandchildren's baptism (triplets by the way). He and I were invited for the first grandchild. For the first grandchild there was a family conflict with his parents, the grandparents, so they were not invited. On social media I found out that the aunt and uncle (the mothers sil) were invited as the sil posted a picture with the grandchildren. Sil is wonderful, so the post was not on purpose to be hurtful. I was very hurt and so was my fiance as he felt shut out. I was hurting more for him. They do the same for birthday parties of the first grandchild. He does not get invited to those or anything else. Really, I should not be surprised. They (the son and daughter) don't acknowledge him on any holiday or birthday. Never a phone call or card. I really don't know the reason. I am sure the ex-wife (who is now remarried) gets invites for everything as they all live in the same town as do the other grandparents. So, it easy for them to all to together. Do I stop liking picture posts on social media of the grandchildren. I always try to be kind, but it is hard with treatment like this. I guess, I didn't grow up like that, as my family was always respectful of others, even when they disagreed on something. I am well aware to not get involved as it not my problem and this is something I cannot fix as it is a family issue and these are his adult children. I have no say in the matter. It is sad to see hurtful things done like this. The daughters social media is on virtual lock down. All that is posted are pictures of the grandchildren. I suppose as to not offend her mother, etc. I want to make sure that backing off of their social media accounts (his daughter and son in law) is the right thing to do.

Question: Should I move out?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 07:33 AM PDT

I'm 30 years old and I still live at home with my parents. I like to travel but they give me a hard time in regards to travelling alone. In 2014 I met this guy online he lives in another stare. He and I aren't in a relationship but I've gone to see him a couple of times since 2014. My parents are always on my case wanting to know about my friends wanting to meet them. But I know they will have something to say about him. I don't like being controlled and I really do want to be on my own.

Question: Grandparents not involved in sons life?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 07:29 AM PDT

It's almost 3 years now and they don't seem interested in ever playing or doing anything with him in general. I never thought they would be like this and it always makes me upset. I know the boys are more wild instead of girls but I feel they should spend time with him at this age since these years will never come back. Also my parents always make themselves that they are always so busy and don't have time to watch or see him. They are not even that old compared to my wifes dad who is almost 80 and at least with him he is in another country so he isn't able to see his grandchild. What can we do to feel more relaxed and get some help since we're always overwhelmed.

Question: What should I do if everyone else is a homebody?

Posted: 05 Jul 2017 01:54 AM PDT

For the Fourth of July, my mom, two brothers, and I ate some really good food in the day. Then we decided to go to a firework show in the evening and had been planning to for a week. There was one firework show closest to us and two that were a little further out. After eating dinner, my whole family started getting tired and didn't want to go out which was really frustrating. Finally, we decided on going to a fireworks show further out. We got there and there was not one space and it was super crowded. So we left and decided to go to the one closest to us. Unfortunately, we got there ten minutes before the fireworks show started. We couldn't find any spaces, there were tons of people, and we ended up driving around a few blocks twice while the whole show was going on and only got to see the end of the show. I was really upset that we couldn't get out of the car to see them. Then we were stuck in traffic for the longest time. It was not a good Fourth of July at all. My family irritates me though because they are all complete homebodies. Even on other holidays, all they want to do is stay home. My brothers are complete homebodies all they want to do is relax on their computers. My mom is becoming a homebody because all she wants to do is relax too. I can understand wanting to stay home but I don't understand it on a holiday. What can I do about this if everyone else is basically boring?

Question: What should I do?

Posted: 04 Jul 2017 11:39 PM PDT

So basically I have been taking care of my mom since I was 11, she's not sick or anything, she just drinks so much that she needs help. It's been 3 years since I've been helping her. I have 2 sisters but one passed away not to long ago and I have a brother. My brother is 16 and recently just went into juvy and he was the only one I could talk to and he always helped me out. On Monday, yesterday, it was my brothers court date and my parents both didn't go cause they were drunk. My parents basically kicked me out the house because their friends came and they wanted to take my room. My mom drinks so much and so does my dad. My life has always been messed up and now I'm just getting sick of it. I've been sleeping in bushes, staying at friends, sleeping on the sidewalk for almost a week now. I just can't go home because I know that if I do I'll just have to go back and help both my parents when they are drunk. I'm really over it. Since I'm on summer I don't have any teachers or anyone to help me out. Yesterday I went home with my sister to get more clothes and my dad kept trying to put his hands on my sister but then she threatened to call the cops on him. My mom only cares about me when she needs something. I just don't know what to do anymore. I've been physically and mentally hurt by both my parents. Who should I tell? What should I do? And I'm not a troll. I just have no one else to ask.

Question: Help my dad is stressing me out about moving?

Question: Is this child abuse?

Posted: 04 Jul 2017 11:26 PM PDT

Earlier me and my nephew where playing around he is 10 and i am an adult, we were playing around with towels trying to pop each other wth them, he turned after i got him on the underside of his arm and i popped him on the back of the neck unintentionally and he began to cry, his mother insists that it Is child abuse ( andclaims that when i do this i am "beating her child") to have actions and events unfold like this and a verbal fight took place with her afterwards, the question i propose is, is this child abuse? Or is the mother just throwing it out of proportion

Question: Is my mom an alcoholic?

Posted: 04 Jul 2017 10:33 PM PDT

Ok, so, I m gonna just put everything out here because I have nowhere else to go. About a month ago, my dad was informed that my mom has been cheating on him for years. My mom has always been a cold person, and my dad is the complete opposite. That being said, he won t kick her out until she has enough money to fend for herself (which would be during the school year, as she is a teacher). Within this past month, my mom s drinking has gradually gotten worse. She has always drank at night, within the vicinity of our own home, and I never noticed because I was little. She usually drinks a bottle of chardonnay a night and has been peeing the bed. (About 4 times in June). My sister called her out on it and she started blaming everyone else, saying it wasn t her! Honey, how the hell did the sheets magically get washed when you were the only one awake?! It seems as if it s everyone s fault but hers in this entire dilemma. What do I do? I have a younger brother who is 11 and I want to protect him from this (he literally has no clue what s going on about any of our family issues) but it s kind of hard. Help me

Question: Can the smell of food wake you from a deep sleep.?

Posted: 04 Jul 2017 10:30 PM PDT

sometimes i put food in the microwave in the middle of the night. I live in a small quarters 1 room apartment with my father, because i fell on hard times, and im with him until i get back on my feet. sometimes when i cook something in the microwave, he will wake up simply because he smelled my food, even with the door shut. tonight i have put a towel in the bottom of his door to prevent to smell from coming in, i have yet to find out if my plan worked.. My main question is, why does the aroma of food being cooked sometimes wake people up?

SO my dad is a pretty hot headed, stubborn man. Next summer I want to take him and my Aunt to Disney because my dad has never been while me and my aunt have. Thing is, he refuses to get on a plane. He's petrified and he has never been on one. Should I maybe just take my aunt? Or if I take him, just buy his flight and sorta force him to? Any tips? I just really want to take him to Disney. We could drive the 24hrs, but we are limited on time.

He works a full time job and she plays housewife all day cooking and cleaning. My grandson is happy I guess but They are in their twenties, life shouldn't be that way! I guess they plan on trying for a baby soon too. This irritates me because I see less and less of him it seems like.

Question: How can i move out of my mom's house (my situation in details)?

Posted: 04 Jul 2017 06:37 PM PDT

My mom only has one car I cant get a job locally because my village of a town is so small lol I cant live else where because I have no friends haha (depression and all that good stuff made me super anti social so) I cant just simply live with other relatives, since they kinds did nothing with their lives and are in a similar boat Don't have a lover lol so i cant live with him/her/it So ye I dunno, maybe there's an obvious solution, but with all these barriers I kinda just stopped caring and just stayed with my mom lol Im20pleasehelp Also, do you think a shelter would let me live there if I explain my situation and maybe exaggerate how I crave to try and do something with my life to make em feel sorry for me. Or are those just for actual homeless people?

So recently we moved from our apartment to a house and at the apartment my mom had a lot of family and friends as neighbors. At our new place there is noone outside my mom doesn t know anybody and she doesn t like to speak english. At every store we go we definitely look like we aren t from this area, and my mom doesn t like it she can t talk to anyone but me or my dad and she can t even look outside and see kids playing or moms talking like she used to. My mom tells me she feels depressed and she doesn t feel like eating she doesn t know how much she can go on like this. My sister also doesn t like it because none of the neighbors have kids and she can t play with anyone. So what should I do do we move out or go to a doctor What should I do??

Question: How do you even respond to someone tells you to give up on life and calls you a selfish b****.?

Posted: 04 Jul 2017 06:02 PM PDT

My older sister asked me to loan her 4000. I turned her down she needed it to pay school tuition, I am in a low paying job and I need to save as much as possible. She got all upset started screaming and yelling. In the end she told me to give up on life and she called me selfish etc. she and her husband work but her husband spends. A drum set just for show and on bobble head figurines. I hate fighting about money but I don't think I need to be her personal bank esp when they clearly could buy a drum set figurines and electronics

Question: How can I convince my parents to let me stay up later?

Posted: 04 Jul 2017 05:59 PM PDT

Hello, I am 13 and my sister is 16, and despite it being summer right now, our parents force us to be in bed by 10 PM and even having phones or laptops in our rooms at night is strictly prohibited. The latter I don't have a problem with, but how can I convince them to let me stay up later? I naturally get tired at sometime between 11 and midnight, thus, I have to sit in bed for an hour or two until my brain actually shuts down. I noticed that everyone else I know and my sister knows is allowed to stay up at least an hour or 2 later, some even longer. I'm not asking to stay up until 3 AM, so how could I go about getting what I want?

Question: What is a second chance family?

Posted: 04 Jul 2017 05:47 PM PDT

I was reading a story about coping with family estrangement and it said how to cope with this was to make a second chance family. Is a second chance family your kids and spouse, your friends that you choose to be family, or a family that you choose to be in or someone lets you be in? I'm 20 years old, am estranged from most of my Biological family, have no interest in having children because I don't want the financial or timely responsibility, and the most ideal definition of family to me is grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and siblings. I don't want kids. When I say I want grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, amd siblings I want them to be mine.

Question: Was this rude to do?

Posted: 04 Jul 2017 05:45 PM PDT

My sister and brother in law visited my place for a few hours and then decided to go to dinner. Their flight was at 10:25pm. They left my house around 755 and the restaurant we went to was closed got there by 8:18. They decided to just go to the airport which was 15 mins away tho we could've stopped somewhere else and had plenty of time. They said with 2 kids it would just be harder tho the other place was just five mins away. I drove to the restaurant out of my way and I felt their judgment was just rude and uncalled for. They suddenly decided they can't eat at a restaurant and ditch me and our mother. Prior he said they need to be at airport by 930 and they had plenty of time. It just felt crappy what they did and rude. Thanks karlee that's a great answer and so very true. I feel they were insensitive and it was sort of done on purpose- just to mess with me too or treat me a certain way. It made me feel horrible- and weird. I almost wanted to cry. Their son was really sad. I feel they could've been nicer about it such as- well hey let's stop somewhere and say bye, or what not. It was done selfishly and it wasn't necessary. They did this years ago when out of the blue they decided not to go to a theme park they decided not to go to a theme park we planned on going to- without even asking me or caring. I was so upset. I had them go to a concert with me or asked, but it's that they don't care what others think.

Question: Why would he lie about having sex with me?

Posted: 04 Jul 2017 05:32 PM PDT

My boyfriend of 3 years has 2 brothers 'Jamie' and 'Michael'. They are both in long term relationships and have kids aswell. They are both about 10 years older than me so we don't really talk much and when we do its when we are drunk. One night we were all at a party and Jamie came up to me and said 'You've shagged Michael' I couldn't believe what he said and very quickly put him straight and said I hadn't (I don't like him at all like that). Anyway Michael walked past during this so I beckoned him over and said 'we've never had sex have we' and he said no we haven't. Jamie then said to him 'you told me you have' and then Micheal denied it again. Both of them are saying the other is lying. My bf knows nothing of this because I don't want to cause any trouble over a pair of idiots. Jamie has come up to me before and accused me of flirting with Michael. And he stares at me sometimes and I've also caught Michael looking at me aswell. It's making me uncomfortable but I don't want to say anything because I know it will cause arguments and I will somehow get the blame for it. I've never wronged either of them so I don't get why they (well mostly Jamie) says this stuff?

Question: How do I tell my mom that were moving to orgon? She's not in good health relies on me for everything n we have a 1yearold son?

Posted: 04 Jul 2017 04:28 PM PDT

My moms a shut in, me my husband and one year old son live with my sister and her son in her house and its not verry plesent most of the time. This move is important so we can be better people and a better family. My husbands grandma already offed once and we tured it down but now she's going to buy us a 5th wheal all we have to do is move to oregon 5hrs away. I'm relly scared to tell my mom she relies on me to go everywhere with her and to pay her bills for her.. I finacially take care of my mom and this house and its making it to where we have no future but I can't tell her thows things I don't want to hurt her... she already has a grandchild that she's never alowed to see but one lives with her and thw other one lives next dore.... It wouldn't be for verry long a year or 2 my biggest worry is that she will try to stop us from going and that my son will forget who she is.... I want to convince her that we will be okay this time and that he will remember who she is.... My son relly loves her and everyone he's around I hooe he likes it down in oregon or I might not be abile to stay but it would be a shame to give up a home and a job and a car just so I can babysit my mom tell she dies.

Question: I think I may have overstepped my boundaries in a friendship because of Anxiety?

Posted: 04 Jul 2017 04:04 PM PDT

Earlier today I was having a "moment". My mom had asked me about my older sister (my sister is my half sister from my dad and as such does not talk to my mom and lives in a different state). When she had asked me about her I started to feel a little sad and frustrated because normally my sister and I would communicate a lot and are very close, but over the past months she hasn't spoken to me or return any of my call or text, how ever she call my dad and speaks to him. My mom kept asking why haven't I spoken to her and why hasn't she called to wish me congrats or anything (just recently graduated HS), but I didn't know the answer to any of her questions. After about a few minutes she left it alone noticing that I was upset about it. So I started to constantly think about the whole problem till it was the only thing on my mind. I ended up telling a friend about what was going on with my sister and I feel as if by telling him this he feels that I'm trying to get him to talk about things that have bothered him in the past (which he told me before that he doesn't want to talk about and I respect that) but I feel as if I should clear up any potential confusion. I thought about just telling him that I was just feeling a certain way because of something my had mom said. I keep dwelling on certain things even after they've been solved and sometimes I wish I could just shut my mind off. Was just wondering if someone could help me with this situation.
