Posted: 18 Oct 2018 02:14 PM PDT His older son from his 1st marriage is not going to care but his younger two kids are girls. That marriage has been a lot longer. My Mom introduced him to a friend of hers not knowing it would turn to something romantic. Once before his daughters resented my Mom for a really mean neighbor my Mom was socializing with who was mean to their Mom. That ended when the neighbor moved away. During that time they would not talk to me since I am my Mom's only child. However, I fear it could happen again with this new woman in my uncle's life. I fear rejection and I have no siblings or father so I like having extended family. |
Posted: 18 Oct 2018 01:45 PM PDT Police have been helpful but she is 18 now, turned 18 in July. My mother has not slept or eaten. She ran away cause she has long experimented with drugs and been with a bad crowd cause she was bullied in grade school. She ran off when my mother confronted her about a man she was sleeping with. She hasn't gone to school since middle of Junior Year. However, we don't want her to get hurt. We put posters up and everything and she locked us and her friends out of her social media. From what police have found there was some activity in Pasadena in May and no activity on social media since and no debit card use. If she OD's do they always find the body? We don't think she was kidnapped or anything but don't know. We are all the way in Tacoma. Please help, where is she? |
Posted: 18 Oct 2018 01:42 PM PDT My Mom;s sister is in town and my parents are on bad terms with her. She can be hostile to her siblings and down right mean. I take pride though in keeping up with all the family. I just saw her in July so it is not the end of the world if I don't and her two children are not with her. However, I do feel guilty boycotting someone in the family. So how do I avoid feeling guilt if I boycott this relative? If I see her how do I avoid getting grief from my parents if they find out? I try to keep it a secret from them but they always seem to learn via our grandmother or social media. I don't post anything but the aunt sometimes does. I could ask her not to but that will expose that my parents insist I avoid her for life. I am 27 so not at risk of being punished or anything, but hate conflict and this aunt is not the most precious or anything as she can be hostile to her siblings for some reason. I am Amy Young, not Monotonous |
Question: Should I just not go to my mom's "get togethers"? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 12:23 PM PDT So my mom started this thing last summer where she wants to have a day in the summer for all her children to get together at her house. I'm 22 and my sister is 35 and my brother is 37. I was born when they were moving out so I don't really know them. They have kids and good jobs and I have nothing in common with them other than having the same mom. I'm pretty awkward around people I don't know. And I'm sure they think there is something wrong with me. I hate going because I'm so awkward around them. Would be okay if I just didn't go next year? |
Question: Is it uncommon nowadays to lose all your grandparents before you turn an adult? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 12:21 PM PDT Everybody nowadays seem to have their grandparents even in their 40s and you barely see anyone under 25 that doesn't have grandparents. And I mean NOWADAYS, now when the medicine is better and cures for many diseases have been found |
Posted: 18 Oct 2018 11:41 AM PDT I'm 19 years old and I been vaping behind my parents back my dad has caught me twice already and he said that if he catches me again he's going to ground me from everything till I move out. Well i'm going to keep vaping behind my parents back because not all juices smell strong but what should I do if my friend buys a juice that smells strong and I happen to get caught again?????? Like should I just get in my car and go out while being grounded since i'm 19????? |
Question: Boyfriends parents arranging his wedding? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 11:36 AM PDT So me & my boyfriend have been together for a year now. We are both from the Indian descent, I am born in America but he came here when he was younger. His parents gave him a lot of freedom throughout life, and he has been living here alone since he was 15 while his parents come and go (they leave back home mostly). We have known each other for 4 years, but I am only 21 and he 25 and 4 years back when I was 17 I don't think I was about dating, but this year things got very serious between us. A month ago my boyfriend found out from his sister that his parents are planning to get him engaged to his dads friends daughter (his family does not know about me), and though things are not confirmed, my boyfriend spoke to his dad a little over the phone and his dad basically said he gave his word. My family knows about him, and I spoke to my grandfather because my dad passed away last year. My grandfather basically consoled me saying that they did not reject me, they just dont know I am in the picture to. He said parents do anything for their kids happiness, and going back from his word is not gonna matter in 5 to 10 years. My family is ready for me to get engaged and so am I, but the tip my grandpa gave is that he talks to my boyfriends dad in person. Please help me in this situation, I really need my boyfriend to stand up for me in front of his parents, and he does say he loves me and we still talk. But what else can we do? He is going back to his home country in December and he did say he will talk to his dad but said his dad is very stubborn like that and will say when he used to ask before if he had someone, then why didnt he say anything. Thing is, we only started dating a year back. My grandparents will also be in the same country at the time and I am hoping that my grandfather can go and speak to his dad. |
Question: How do I break free from such a lifestyle? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 11:23 AM PDT I'm a student currently enrolled in university, but I have the worst social life. My parents are extremely extremely overprotective, far beyond the imaginations. They don't let me hang out with friends at malls and stuff, they don't let me stay back at uni to talk with friends, and they drive me to uni and back since it's too 'dangerous' for me to drive, and for me to get an Uber. I don't have any close friends. My parents don't let me talk to boys but my brother has all the liberty to talk to girls. Basically, they think it's a dangerously world for a girl to live in. Interestingly, they encourage all other girls in my extended family to be "independent". I'm just so lost and alone, Id rather not live if it has to be a life like this, wish someone would give me shortcut to solve this problem instead of telling me to talk to them because they don't listen since I don't have "experience of the world's ways" and therefore not entitled to an opinion. I feel so so so suffocated and lost. |
Question: I hate my family for eating all of the cupcakes? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 11:08 AM PDT I went to a bakery and bought 18 cupcakes, i live with my mom, my dad, and my 2 sisters and I told them they can all have one, I went to take a shower and when I come out they were all gone they ate them all. What should I do about this? How should I get them back? |
Question: Rough family situation? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 10:53 AM PDT So i just turned 17 a couple of weeks ago. Its really bad at home right now and sometimes i just dont want to be here. Im yelled at a lot for things that arent even wrong and its like they try to find the smallest things to just get onto me about. Im called names and hurtful things are said to me and it affects me. Ive been slapped a few times too. I do not necessarily want to move out, im not at that point yet but i do want to be able to leave when i dont want to be here. A lot of time when something is going on i talk to my friend about it and shes totally fine w letting me stay with her for a day or two or however long i need to. But everytime im just like fine I'll just leave and stay with ____ for a little bit im threatened and feel like the cops will be called on me. Can that happen? Will they do anything? As long as i have a safe place to stay at can i just leave? |
Posted: 18 Oct 2018 10:28 AM PDT i found out that the two persons that i've been working with for over 10 years gossip behind my back, i have no issues with it, my issue is the fakeness which follow, smiling in my face and acting concerned when clearly you are not, i work for my dad so leaving the company for 2 insignificant people is out of the question, and i dont want to approach them and make the work environment strange, i rather not have anyone speak to me than play face with me, its annoying and affects me because every time i see them i get upset, and one of them is the god parent to my son, im so disgusted at this point that they realize that my mood has shifted, any advice? |
Question: Why is being an only child always seen as so much bad? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 10:23 AM PDT There are so many cases where your siblings hate you or leave you when you are adults so you will have to take care of your parents alone anyway. And there are also cousins for example, they are also family, and they can also support you. Siblings are not the key for luck. |
Question: Is this emotional abuse? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 10:16 AM PDT The other day my husband and I woke up and he realized that we didn t have much for breakfast. I could tell he was starting to get aggravated so I started looking in the freezer to see if we had anything. I saw we had some chicken biscuits that could be microwaved. I offered them to him and he says "Those are old! Can t you tell they are freezer burnt?". I said "We just bought them." and he says "Just LOOK at them! They are old as they can be! They have been in there for months! I m not eating that." I signed and looked exasperated. He was watching my expression carefully the entire time and then he says "Why are you getting upset??? Can t you tell I m just JOKING? You said for me to eat them and I m just joking with you about how old they are. Are you seriously getting upset?? I m not having you ruin another weekend! I m going to McDonalds!". And he walked out the door. Thanks so much for reading this example of what I put up with and I would love to get some input. Thank you! |
Question: If my father opens a gas station for me, is it a good business? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 09:50 AM PDT My father is a doctor and I'm a senior in high school and studying is not working for me at all, I sit and study all day and end up leaving the paper white during the exam and today my father offered to open a gas station for me. Just wanted to know, is it a good business? Can I live comfortably? |
Posted: 18 Oct 2018 09:23 AM PDT He is downright cruel. |
Posted: 18 Oct 2018 09:23 AM PDT I got crummy answers earlier so asking again My parents don't speak to my Mom's side of the family. I don't know if the rest of them speak or not. It is heartbreaking to me to think they might and I miss out. I feel loss, anger, sadness, shame, and worthlessness the last five years at Thanksgiving and Christmas. I reach out to no avail other then one aunt and her son. I get so sad as friend making was hard for me growing up so family meant a lot more then it did to my parents and my siblings. My Mom is grateful for the estrangement which makes me resent her. I think there was already tension that I didn't pick up on since I was a kid. How do I get over my heartbreak this Christmas, I hate the holidays. THANK YOU ALL FOR THE ANSWERS, ALL GOOD ONES. BEST WISHES AND GOD BLESS. |
Question: How can I help my sister ? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 08:52 AM PDT My sister has a crush on her best friend she's afraid to tell her. How can I help her ? |
Question: My dad is concerned about the Hubble telescope spying on us? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 07:59 AM PDT Really though, is this an actual thing to be worried about or is this just one of my dad's paranoid things? My dad was diagnosed with some schizophrenia two years ago but he was totally right about the Facebook listening to our conversations through our phones thing. He's scraped off and blacked out the numbers on all of his credit and debit cards and he only uses indoor ATMs. He used to keep all of his money in a safe in a covered shed near my grandma's cabin but he stopped when my grandma figured it out and confiscated his money. She gave it back, but it really changed how dad interacts with the world. They haven't spoken in over a year and a half. He hasn't worked in years and relies on my little sister and I to support him and pay the mortgage on the family house. My sister is getting married next year and plans to move to Thailand on a work visa soon. He's really emotionally fragile, so we've yet to break the news to him. I plan to stick with my dad for the time being, but once I lose some weight on my keto diet I'll probably meet a guy and move away too. My dad probably isn't functional enough to live on his own and I only make $14,000 a year so I can't support him without my sister. He's almost 47 but apparently that's too young for most of the assisted living places in our area. What are my options here, exactly? |
Question: Son misses his big sister in college? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 07:27 AM PDT Hello, I am asking this about my 10 year old son, Declan. As you can tell by the title, he really misses his older sister, she is 20 years old and she just went back from a visit. They have always been close, but he gets very depressed when she's gone, most of the time, he cuddles with her. He does have a 5 year old brother and one newly adopted baby brother. So it's not like he's bored. He was crying when we dropped her off, he would not let go of her. I just want to know what to do to cheer him up. :( My daughter knows, so whenever she's home she makes sure they're together. They're best friends and it kills us seeing him like this. What should I do to help him? |

Question: Is this normal for a 10 year old boy to do? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 06:39 AM PDT Hey guys, My 10 year old brother is sick. All he seems to want to do is to snuggle with me, and watch tv. I am 25 and live closeby so I can see him. He's been on my lap all morning, then we went upstairs and he put his head on my shoulder, wrapped his arms around me, and fell asleep. I was just wondering of this is normal. I am his sister btw. |
Posted: 18 Oct 2018 05:55 AM PDT Not only did my ex **** my brother but she got mother to let her live with us at the time before I got kicked out. I got my place now but still.. The feelings don't go away. My mother she made fun of my dick with my ex. My ex was saying how she can't suck it or some **** and her and my mother started laughing together. I felt sick to my stomach at that point. Am I wrong for still holding a grudge against my mother for that? She hasn't apologized ever for the messed up things she did to me. Not to mention my grandmother told me there's something wrong with my mother mentally but it seems like she skates by and society doesn't bat an eye because she's a girl but I've been getting done dirty for years by her. |

Question: Why does my new boyfriend look so different from my ex-boyfriend? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 04:26 AM PDT So my boyfriend and I had some sex for the first time last Thursday. We would have done it sooner, but I share a room with my two sisters and my dad's older brother. My boyfriend has been homeless for almost a year after his grandma kicked him out for drawing graffiti on the walls inside the house. He's trying to find a job as an tattoo artist but he won't be 18 for another 26 months. Anyway, while we were having sex I noticed that his penis area looks REALLY different than the other guys I've been with. It's like there's way too much skin down there or something. Like his skin was supposed to stop growing but it got out of control. My ex-boyfriend looked NOTHING like this and it's kind of freaking me out. I saw my dad naked a bunch of times growing up and it's totally different and feels different too. I wanted to ask him about it but he's really sensitive about his body and its a new relationship so I don't want to freak him out. What's my next step here? |

Question: Did I say the right things to her? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 03:27 AM PDT After I finally settled on a cruise vacation, like I told her 2 months ago that I would after I refund the tickets that she bought by herself, and get personally involved in shopping for a cruise... We settled on a cruise around Northern Europe, where we can safely cruise, and safely visit the lands, and safely engage in the activities aboard the ship. She asked me if she'll ever get to see my parents or my extended family other than my sisters. I told her that the cold realities are, no. Both of my Parents are dead. All four of my Grandparents are dead. And there are so many problems with my mom's side of the family, that you don't want to know about it. I'll honestly tell you about my mom's side of my family, in a good number of years from now. She said that her parents are dead too..and she asked me what she's supposed to do. I told her that its not what she's supposed to do, or I'm supposed to do... It's about what we're supposed to do. I told her that what we're supposed to do, is take care of each other, because each other is all that we have. We're going to have to live in the bed that we make together. So I suggest that we make ourselves a comfortable one. And a comfortable one, isn't one that rocks, moves, bounces, flips or flops, spins, folds, collapses or constantly changes. And the best way to make such a bed, is to calm down, relax, chill out, enjoy each other, and don't get complicated, and don't let corporations and jobs go and run your life for us. |
Question: Should I chose my brother or myself and the rest of the family? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 03:13 AM PDT |
Question: How can I tell if my family and I are suffering from a bad spell/ spirit etc? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 02:09 AM PDT My Father married a woman who in the past had a lot of family who was into witch craft (grandfather was a spiritualist made potions etc for other people; he passed away. I believe her uncles, who are in another country still practice..). My father and his family believe in god and practice Christianity. Presently and for for many years our family has been suffering from what appears to be a chain of bad luck. But recently we have become suspicious that what has been happening is not by accident. (Illnesses; cancer, auto imune diseases, ulcers, loss of jobs, many individuals depressed, discontentment, bad things continue to happen, just seems like too much to just be bad luck. etc..) How can we tell if theres more going on? Or if there is a bad spirit against myself, my family etc? What can we do? |

Question: Is this a weird thing for a grandmother to say? Posted: 18 Oct 2018 01:47 AM PDT To say to a 12 year old girl that they have the best body out of the group of other girls that age... |
Question: What would you do in this situation.? Posted: 17 Oct 2018 09:02 PM PDT my Family forced me to marry by druggin me for years what steps can I take to get out of this situation. They are mostly doctors and fabricated stories of suicide. Also said I was psychotic and put me on major tranquilizers. Any money I earn they take. I'm also legally blind. Have you ever heard of families abusing disabled adults like this? I'm off the drugs now but if I speak out about my spouse abusing me they threaten to hospitalize me. I live with my parents now and separated from my spouse but not divorced. My father wired money to my spouse before the marriage to pay for the wedding it didn't find out after the marriage. When I started living with my spou they said > why are you touching me did I ever touch you. They then started locking me in rooms the house and out of the house. I later found that me spouse was having an affair while I locked in the room. My parent now want to sponsor my spouse to come to the United States from India. I think I'm going to file for divorce online and fill out the paperwork myself. Also if they start to drug me again I hope I don't start giving them my savings like I did in the past |
Posted: 17 Oct 2018 08:29 PM PDT So I have had my own room since I was 10 or 11 and now I'm 16. My two yourger sisters have shared a room since then and they fight all the time. My youngest sister tried to OD 3 times in a span of one month. She says she did it because of the fighting. She is doing to for attention. One time at a football game, she said she was having a n allergy reaction (allergic to peanuts). So when we where driving to get her epipen. She was pretty much acting like she was dead. Not blinking, staring out into face, to reaction to anything. We call 911 and once she was in the ambulance, she was perfectly fine. I went with to the er in a seperate car and once we got there, the people in the ambulance, the nurse and the doctor all saud she was taking. We have to move room because of construction and there is one big attic and one small room. I have do share with my middle sister while my little sister gets her own room. I have a job and dont get to bed till like 10 or 11 and I do my homework in my room. I think ots ridiculous how she gets her own room. I need help, do you think its fair??? |
Question: Could I get in trouble about this? Posted: 17 Oct 2018 08:27 PM PDT So i told my parents that my school bathrooms were covered in poop and pee and people did ilegal things and overall were very bad and my dad took it seriously and emailed the principal with all these threats to tell the health inspector and school board and stuff and I couldn't tell my dad I was joking now so I just went with it and now the principal called my dad saying no ones heard of any of this but they took the email very seriously and all these admins are monitoring the bathrooms at all times |
Question: I'm stuck. What should I do? Posted: 17 Oct 2018 08:08 PM PDT So I stay with my gma bc my dad is a jerk who let his nieces bully me real bad.

Posted: 17 Oct 2018 05:08 PM PDT So I started at a temp factory for the holiday because I didn't have a job at the time. So I started n everything was ok for the most part besides the communication from the lady that was training me. She would tell me to do one thing come back n say I never said that. Right off back I knew I wouldn't b there long. Weeks later my fiancé started working there few days for extra money. So when he started the lady asked him If he knew me because of the same address. He said that he was my neighbor we live n the same building. We did that simply because they said no family were allowed or work together again but meanwhile the guy and his daughter both worked there n everyone knew bout it. We kept it low but I guess our chemistry was too strong. Weeks later a old neighbor started working there n days later everyone treated me differently. I knew she told them that we were together but for them to act like that I was on some **** all y'all . I was here before her n y'all just took what she said. What we did was not have everyone in our business. But the craziness of it all was they did not treat my fiancé any differently so infelt some type of way. My last day I was suppose to work but when I got there they treated me differently n said we don't have any open register but I can do the snack stand. The job sent out a letter telling my fiancé that he was offered a job for the following year but of course I wasn't invited back. |
Posted: 17 Oct 2018 04:43 PM PDT My Dad is long deceased but I cling to his family to make up for not coming around when he was drinking the way he clung to alcohol. They reached out some after his death and I got close and yet I am not as close as the cousins who all grew up having holidays together. I mourn for this. I was 19 the first time I saw them at Christmas as I was 17 when my father died. I am not asked to cousins weddings and am the only one not asked (am an only child). I feel so much shame when I see on Facebook I've missed another one like last weekend. I am asked to more low key stuff like an aunt with no kids who asks me to come Thanksgiving. My Mom left my Dad and so I did not know him after age 8. I feel I failed him by not knowing him even though he was alcoholic. I feel I failed his whole family. I cling to them to make up like he clung to alcohol. I resent my Mom for holding me back and she has said she wishes she hadn't. Sometimes she was being protective but othertimes I think she was using me as a weapon to get him back with. Her bitterness was huge when I was growing up but she has softened with remarriage. So how do I correct my damaged beliefs that I am a failure to let down my Dad's family and they think of me as 2nd rate as shown when I am the only one not asked to the weddings in the family? Growing up they were all close, they saw me maybe every other year only. I think of myself as 2nd rate. Not bad but not good, just tolerable. HAVE ASKED A FEW TIMES FOR DIFFERENT ANSWERS, LAST TIME I WILL ASK AT LEAST FOR A MONTH. THANK YOU FOR THE ANSWERS. |
Posted: 17 Oct 2018 04:43 PM PDT He'd been sick forever so it is not a big deal. He didn't even remember us at the end. If she wants to cry at the funeral Saturday then that is fine but she is a wreck right now and it is embarrassing, |

Question: My parents won’t let me make my own decisions how do I convince them? Posted: 17 Oct 2018 04:11 PM PDT So I live with my mom in Florida and I'm here with a job helping her with bills. I wanna move back to nyc where I use to live with my grandma and brother and I want to find a better job so that I can get paid better and get better opportunities and there's more for me to do there with my career and passion. My parents always want me to do what they tell me. I plan to have a conversation about this soon that I want to move back for a better opportunity with work there and I'm afraid they will force me to stay in Florida and not allow me to be happy. How do I convince them to allow me and btw I'm 21 years old |
Posted: 17 Oct 2018 04:06 PM PDT So my mom abandoned me as a baby, which still affects me to this day (I'm 15 years old). I haven't talked to her or texted her or anything in years. After that I went to live with my dad and he has raised me since. My mom hasn't paid child support ever and owes thousands of dollars and doesn't even call on my birthday or anything. I know that all of this is neglection and that I have also been abused by my dad physically and mentally/verbally. But lately my dad has started to make jokes about how my mom abandoned me and even talks about how he's going to do the same. He talks about kicking me out all the time when I'm only 15. He does a lot of other stuff, but I think this affects me the most. I am truthfully not a bad kid at all. I get good grades, I am respectful, and I have barely ever even talked back or been sassy. These jokes and comments make me feel terrible and honestly scared. I cry everyday and absolutely hate my life rn, while he seems to get joy from making these remarks. Am I just being dramatic? Is this abuse? |
