Click-bait question out the way...to be clear, I mean legally and with consent! Lack of touch can be harmful to people, it has a connection with mood disorders and depression, but some people don't have others in their lives to be able to hug so what do they do? How can people get human contact without resorting to something illegal/immoral/gross (e.g. touching without consent) or paying someone to touch you (e.g. sex workers or a masseuse)?

My mother in law invites me then makes fun of me . My sister in law says hi ,then sits on her phone and interacts with everyone but me . My father in law hardly speaks and only talks about husbands younger brother who isnt there and looks grouchy the whole time . Should i even attend family things ? His sister I have to speak or she wont . I am to the point where i am about to just say I'll go to my stuff you go to yours

Sorry for any mistakes but I'm German I am 17 years old and met my father when I was 6 , after being taken from my mother's custody bc she was extremely violent and negligent . My father was always very good to me, supporting me and giving me every chance to overcome my traumatic past. But this week, after hours talking with my psychologist, she made me realize how important it is to me to talk about the abuses I suffered with him. Because of the nightmares, panic attacks, flashbacks… my father has a good idea of what it was like to live with my birth mother but he does not suspect (I think) of the sexual abuse committed by her boyfriend. He always helped me and listened to me when I ventured with him, always making me feel safe and protected and loved. This is too much for me to deal with alone and It's consuming me but I don't know how to talk about with him, actually, the problem is about start talking . Like, how do I start the conversation, how do I show that I have something serious to talk about and when is a good time? If you were in his shoes would you like to know? Is this even something I should talk to him? I do not want to deal with this alone but I'm too ashamed and scared to talk.

I'm 17 and 13 wks pregnant. My boyfriend is 20 and has no job license or money and when he does have money it goes to booze and weed. He has charmed me over and I keep telling myself he loves me but he is more of a controller than a partner I've tried to leave twice but he threatens to kill me, the baby, himself or my dog. I'm not necessarily scared of him but I'm scared he might kill himself, which will only give me more to stress about, I'm already dealing with the death of my parent, not having a home and dealing with his sexual and emotional abuse. I want to leave so badly but it's like I literally don't know what to do without him. He's stripped me of my friends and family and i rely on his support. I'm such a lonely person he's all I have now, and despite my hatred towards him I love him. I am so emotionally stressed, it's ripping me apart, and I don't want my kid to live without a father but at the same time I hope my kid never has to meet him, I honestly wouldn't even trust him around my kid considering he's made jokes about how I'm younger than him and how I look like a little girl and it turns him on, he's also made jokes about some of my deceased family members watching us have sex from heaven. When we don't have sex he gets angry and often tells me to just go with it while he gets me naked. The thing I don't like about him most however is he hates animals and hurts his dogs in front of me. It is much harder than just saying I'm done.

I deleted him off social media a while back and stopped speaking to him. He's had 3 other girlfriends since then and he still tries friend requesting me and messaging me. I'm in a relationship and 6 months pregnant and he's well aware of that. I really want to punch his face because of him bothering me, it's like me seeing and having sex with someone else doesn't even phase him, it's disgusting. I don't want anything to do with him or have him see my baby, even if he were to be the father I wouldn't let him raise the baby because he's an irresponsible *** with no brain at all.

I'm 36. Proud to say I never married nor had kids. I enjoy partying after I get off work and playing video games in my apartment with no interruptions. No wifey to steal my time and no kids to take care of. Dogs are better. Tom Leykis is my hero Marriage is for losers. American women are.whores Kids shoot up schools. God I love my time and money going to me. And me only. Btw women are sexiest between 18-25

So my mum is annoying me so much . She really has a weird way of thinking. So today she e in my group chat like " hello I am (name) and I amnew in this group". Oh fxck no!! I really dont like writing cringy things like tha. I am more of distant and cold Person. And shw says that I have to write it cuz thwn the others would k that I am an antisocial kid and laugh. Like tf really?? She really likws to butt into my things and personal things. Also recently my stupid math teacher said that I somtimes look somewhwre else or always draw to . And then my mom said that I should fcus more and gave me a lecture. So stupid likw I am gonna be a robot and havw to look at the board 24/7 hours. Sometimes he cathes me looking somwhere else but I do isten to the subjrct and I also need a break fr my eyes .

So it's all my fault, I kept blowing my boyfriend phone on Thursday last week and now I haven't heard from hum since then. He only text me morning back when I text him Saturday morning. I feel like i hurt him really bad.

I've just failed my semester, I spent $500 on clothes in a week, I feel very lost and insecure. I want to run back to my boyfriend but I know I shouldn't. I don't know how to move on. It's 7am and I haven't slept at all. I'm not tired. He was so manipulative and yet he showed me he loved me through so many ways that make me want to crawl back to him but I know he had hurtful words. I'm even more sad I wasted so much time. He told me I could never find anyone. I'm so lost in life.

Hi, I've been with my man for 3 years. I've valued him and been loyal to him. Our relationship started out well. Because he was foreign, I believe I could change his thoughts that aren't aligned with western culture. He was willing to, he wanted to. Each time we fought he knew he had to change but yet it seemed set in stone. I was constantly told that his frustration was because I wouldn't sleep with him. If there were no oral sex, then he would be upset and push me away. He would constantly tell me I was the reason he felt lustful towards women. I felt so guilty and blamed myself. I didn't want to sleep with him because I felt I was being used. we had a lot of good moments too which makes this a very difficult break up. He has apologized but I fear it's a moments thing and it will reoccur again. I've asked him if he would cheat and he said maybe! He was angry at me so I'm unsure if I should hold that against him. I'm very lost right now. No, I meant his cultural thoughts were that I cook and clean etc, It was not about sex until much later on when I wanted to sleep with him but he was blaming and making me feel guilty for the way he was lusting over other women and also for not giving him oral everyday

How do I build a bridge and get over him. I'm thinking of all he's done for me, all the times we've spent together. Most of them have been really good. He's always glued to my side. At has times he says things without speaking. Our break up was so sudden. Everything seemed okay until he sat me down and told me he was thinking of leaving me, then he made me go home and think about wheather I wanted to be with him if he couldn't reassure me we would be together. We've been together 3 years. He always says these things as a way to make me feel like I should fight for him. Every year he asks me to to rethink our relationship when I'm upset with him and if I wanted to leave, I could because he wasn't going to apologize. This year I was tired of him making me seem like the bad guy so I left. He's been begging for me back. What sets are argument is how he tells me how women always flirt and hit on him but I shouldn't worry because I was the only one for him. I asked him why it was always necessary to tell me this. He constantly enjoys the attention of other women when I'm around, he stares, they lock eyes and I feel like he's striped away my confidence. The last fight was him not responding to my text after a day and when I asked where he had been he told me he was video chatting a female friend. I was irritated he chose her over me!

I had a relationship with a guy but it wasn't official and when I told him I was pregnant he didn't believe me. I honestly didn't care about his opinion at the time cause I had a very complicated pregnancy my life was at risk so I blew him off cause he didn't believe what I was going through. Now our son is almost 2 and I see him as a miracle baby I didn't think I would make it and much less my son. Doctor told me all the time I could die and I had to see a specialist throughout the pregnancy. I had hypothyroidism way before I got pregnant and this pregnancy made it go back to normal somehow doctor saw it as a miracle. My son helped me get better. I want to share this with his dad but he knows my number he decided not to call ever again. I don't know his number but I know where he lives so should I visit him?

So my mom and dad have been divorced for about 3 or 4 years now and my dad hasn't really been seeing anyone until about 6 or 7 months ago when he met his current - but soon to be ex girlfriend. My dad always talks about how he really, really likes her and I really like her too, her kids are nice, she treats me like her own daughter, and she takes me shopping and listens to my music with me. But today I was talking to my dad about her and he seemed kind of upset and said he's planning on breaking up with her even though he loves her and is still very attracted to her and they never seem to fight. He wouldn't tell me why he wanted to end things and i it's really driving me crazy bc I thought they'd be together a long time. Can anyone help explain this to me.

i happen to live with parents & they'll have me open the boxes in front of them because they're nosy bitches. how can i avoid that ?

So my teacher gave us 2 writing assignments for the semester and tests every couple of weeks. I passed all the tests but failed the two writing assignments. AND NO it wasn't a basic essay, we had to write about laws from 1980 that regular English people can barely understand. When we asked him for help all he did was tell us to read. As you may know, the semester is over next week. I'm trying to form an email asking him for an extra credit assignment or something. Because I honestly tried my best on the essays but really didn't understand the readings. I normally make all A's and B's with a 3.2 GPA so for me to fail 2 essays something is wrong. I'm not the only one in my class that failed the essays, it was everyone. Any tips on what and how to ask my professor for extra credit or another assignment P.s.... he said, in the beginning, no extra credit BUT I need it. All advice welcomed Thanks I asked for help ..... he told me read....

So me and my boyfriend is in a long distance relationship. He stays in Ohio and I stay in Alabama. Known him since high school lost contact for 10 or 11 years. Got back in contact through Facebook summer this year. Constantly talking and catching up on things which now we are dating. Last week for Thanksgiving I call he has not answer the phone nor text me. So I started freaking out by calling and texting him so much to the point he finally text back and said happy thanksgiving. Now 11 o clock that Thrusday night he finally answered the phone like he was so upset and in a bad mood and how his mom got into it with him about how I called so much and stuff to now he told me he can t do this and he still wants too be apart of my life. So that is Monday haven t heard from him since than. Constantly calling and texting him the only time he respond is Saturday morning when I text him morning he said morning and that was it. I message his sister on Facebook she said he s okay just but space will have to be given if I really want him to be with me. Now hid birthday is Dec. 8th so I m going to drive 8 hrs by myself to surprise him on his bday and his sister told me to just come with a open mind and no drama. Now I m scared because I want him to contact me way before than. Like is he still hurt and still loves me or he is really done. He have said he s in love with me and tell me he loves me everyday before this happen. What do I need to do? Btw I m 26 and he is 25 now.

So I was a virgin until recently and every time i have sex It literally doesn't feel like anything. My boyfriend says the same and we were both virgins so the first time we were just like maybe that's what sex feels like... but you hear all these amazing things about sex and how It feel like pressure and just overall really good! And I feel stuff when he is fingering me and he feels stuff when I pleasure him so why is It that when we have sex we are just going through the motions the only time I feel pressure is when it's first going in. I literally feel broken and just so depressed because I love him so much and I don't want him to leave me because sex isn't good. Is It possible that I'm loose? Considering I was a virgin and I never fingered myself you would think that, that wouldn't be the case. At this point I'm just stuck and I would normally never come to the internet for something to personal but it's really affecting me emotionally. I've even looked up positions to make It feel tighter and It was still the same thing. I just really don't know what to do at this point.

Verán conozco a esta chica desde hace 2 años pero no hablamos mucho solo nos saludamos todos los días en la escuela, ella siempre le da "me encanta" a mis publicaciones y fotos en Facebook y hace poco una amiga suya me pregunto que si no le gustaba ella (la chica a la que le envié el mensaje) y le dije "Por que?" y ella solo me dijo "No por nada ya" y se me hizo muy sospechoso eso, ademas a veces es tímida conmigo y se queda callada cuando yo estoy hablando con sus amigas y mi primo me dijo que el le iba a mandar un mensaje diciéndole que ella me gustaba, ella le contesto riéndose porque no creía que fuera cierto, en la escuela me pregunto que si era cierto lo que le había dicho mi primo yo me hice como que no sabia y le dije que no sabia de que me hablaba y le pregunte que era lo que le había mandado y ella me dijo "No nada olvídalo", cuando llegue a mi casa le hice platica por whatsapp y le dije que ya sabia lo que le había dicho mi primo, y ella me contesto "Y es verdad lo que me dijo?" y yo le conteste "Si es verdad" y en toda la tarde no me respondió y me aparecía en linea pero jamas me respondió. Que puedo hacer o que me quiso decir? Agradecería su respuesta

I'm 16 and my parents can't find out that I'm pregnant (twins). I've been staying with my older cousin (she knows) for the last few months while my parents were visiting family out of the country. They come back in a week and I just don't know what to do. I'm already showing at 12 weeks. It was a one night stand at a party. Don't even know how to contact him. I can't stay with my cousin any longer (she's been great, but she's got her own life and problems) and I'll have to go home when they get back. Is there any way I can hide it longer? How long until twins becomes super obvious?

I was wondering if its a good idea to write my ex a letter of how I still feel about her and in some way for closure. We haven't been together in almost 10 years. Is this a bad idea? I know she is having a hard time well we both are cause we lost our youngest son do to cancer back in May of this year and right now I'm battling cancer myself which I found out in Sept. I'm so mixed about all this.
