I was talking to a guy who stayed up until the AMs to chat with me, he told me he enjoyed talking to me and someday hopes we can get married. We're 25. He was just being cute with the marriage thing, nothing creepy. He always flirting with me but he left me on read, seen all my snaps. I'm confused

So, my mom is a Narcissistic parent And a Helecopter parent She won't let me have a life, hang out with friends, go out for a walk, or even have privacy! I need help! I feel so caged

I know the usual advice: he finds out, he ignores you, he's not the man for you, move on. It's not like that though, we work together, we talk, he is like a friend to me. I had a crush on him when I first met him and sure, those feelings have always been there sort of I guess since then, but our current relationship, our friendship I guess, means more to me then that. I like talking to him, I feel like he gets me. I don't want to lose that. He basically found out when someone who used to be really great friends with me, and who I love although we aren't as close anymore, shared a sober driver after a party. She was talking with him, I came up because I'm a mutual friend, and she was calling me cool and stuff and told him I had a little crush on him back before high school or at the beginning of high school (when me and him first met). I found this whole situation out from him, except he wouldn't tell me what she said, he was kind of teasing me about it but wouldn't tell me, and then when I asked if he would tell me over text and texted him he told me that the past was in the past. So I asked her (my other friend) who filled in the blanks. I'm cool with it, I laughed at first. And actually I am loving this because it has given me a chance to reconnect with her. He was his normal self with me today, but now that I know he knows, and that he is gonna know I know soon most likely, I'm scared that will make things awkward and make him difficult to communicate and work with. Help.

My child's fathers girlfriend lives a few hours away, and they went to go see her. She helped him pick out seashells for me, and they made put it into, and had my kid paint the glass with light see through colors. I was really upset when I found out she helped my child. I was also upset my kids father took him by her, but my friend said I'm being bitter, and she sees it as a good jester, and she is trying to be his friend, and be nice and considerate of me. Am I being bitter? What do you think?

Since I met this girl she laughs really loud a dumb stuff I say and tries to find any way to talk to me. She has playfully teased me. Her friend stands next to her to do that stuff and tries to get me to talk to her. She sends me to talk to her and show her stuff and tells her stuff about me. She asks me to chase after her Down the hall as a joke. Is she trying to encourage me to flirt with her. Why would she
