I'm a social worker (43) I'm started to get feelings for my client (28). I don't want to end up losing my job but it's getting to be very difficult for me as I like him a lot. What should I do?

So I've been texting this woman whom was a year behind me in high school. She's told me she's not interested in dating me although I'm nice looking in her opinion. So when her and I do text she doesn't share much information about herself. She said the only way to learn about someone is by hanging out with them. I'm flattered that she wants to hangout with me but I like to text too because it's convenient. I asked her how her previous relationship was and she said it's pointless to discuss because it doesn't help anything. She's invited me over to her apartment to talk. I want to see her place one day. She seems to really want to hangout with me, she frequently asks me if I want to do things. But im attracted to her.

I've known this guy, Tim, since August, I believe. I've actually known him longer than I've known my boyfriend. Tim is married, no kids. We used to work together, but he was only training at my location to work at another location. The entire time we worked together, he was constantly flirting with me. He did bring up his wife daily, though. When word started getting around that I had a boyfriend, he would eavesdrop on conversations about my boyfriend. One time, my boyfriend actually came to eat lunch with me on my break, so Tim saw him. There was a point I hadn't seen Tim in a couple days and when I saw him again, he had grown facial hair. I was like "wow, I've never seen you with facial hair before. That grew fast!" He said "you need to stop dating boys and start dating men." (he's 41, I'm almost 28, boyfriend is almost 26, but has boyish looks) My boyfriend had given me a very visible hickey and Tim picked on me twice about it, once claiming my boyfriend should've tried harder to make it discreet. Another time, I mentioned I had gone to McDonald's the night before with my boyfriend. He's like "THAT'S where he took you for a romantic dinner?" I was like...we went somewhere romantic for lunch, we didn't need both meals to be fancy. Why would a married man talk smack about a woman's relationship or boyfriend? He always seems happy to see me when he drops by to pick something up or drop something off. He still flirts with me and even implied he cares about me, recently.

When my husband and I decided to celebrate our anniversary we invited 2 other couples to spend it with. It was a public place so once it was over, I had planned to treat everyone to a nice dinner afterwards. We didn't expect that one of the couples invited other friends to tag along without asking us so that ruined my night since it was MY anniversary, I felt I should have been asked first. We didn't even up treating everyone to dinner and just called it a night afterwards. So it doesn't happen again, we talked to one of them and told them about how we just don't really invite people into our homes unless we know them and we figured that they got the memo coz they seemed sympathetic. Well I'm having a holiday party soon and I had planned to keep it small and intimate with close friends and now the same person is asking if she can invite other friends again. This time at least, she's asking so that's a change... but how do I tell her no? I really don't like these people she is inviting and I am the one serving the food here so this kinda irritates me. Why does she keep inviting others? FYI, I do know the people she is inviting just not the type I want to be friends with. I am in my 30's btw living in my own home with my husband.

My friend only dates a certain race and discriminates even her own. It makes me feel sad for her. I don't agree with what she says or thinks and I don't want to be influenced. Perhaps she's better off with more like-minded people.

Apparently, her friend was a baby when her father sexually assaulted a 13 year old girl.. Her father was 19 or 20 at the time and married to her mother. He served 10 years in prison and was released 4 years ago. On sex registry it states that he will be a lifetime register and he is high risk. This is sending warning bells off in my head. My daughter is not allowed over to her house. PERIOD. My daughter told me that her friend has sleepovers. I'm pretty sure the parents of the girls staying at their house have no clue what her father has done. And if he is high risk, doesn't that mean is is likely to do it again?

I'm kinda friends with this guy. We hangout sometimes and talk occasionally. It is never consistent. He is quite a bit older than me and is busy with work and I'm busy with classes. Friday, we went to his family's business after hours and had a bonfire. I was with him and his brother. I met him at his place before we went. He was a bit high and gave me like 4 books (some related to the major I'm pursuing and the career he has), some stones from his collection, 2 shows he wanted me to watch and a few other things. He told me one of the books was really important to him. He always gives me stuff, high or not. So I wanted to do something for him in return. We talked a bit Saturday and I brought up some of the things he wrote in the book he gave me that he said was important to him. They were sad poems from when we want through a really difficult time. We talked about them a tiny bit before he stopped replying, which is no big deal. But since I haven't heard from him, I didn't know if it would be weird to send him a gift card electronically. Friday night he showed me this trailer to a movie he really wants to see, so I thought about giving him a gift card for a theatre near his house. I just don't want to seem clingy or pushy. I also don't know if talking about the poems bothered him. Do you think it would be a weird time to send the gift card? Should i even send it?

I'm 30 years old but I still like spending the night at my grandma's house sometimes. I also think it's fun sleeping at my friends once in while. I honestly don't see anything wrong with this. But some people say its immature

I texted my ex bf that i miss him and he played hardball saying he was hurt etc, how would it be different this time around he didn't want to be hurt again etc(he wouldn't ask how it'd be different if he wasn't interested still?) he said he didn't want to be hurt again and I was fed up with it because despite everything he was playing hurt card I said things happened that shouldn't have and this time it would be different, after that convo a couple days past and before my trip i texted him saying despite everything i tried giving him the benefit of the doubt but it was useless. He said "ok i'm not going to argue with you, enjoy your trip". This was before I went on vacation.I didn't say anything else, I'm wondering if he was playing hurt expecting me to constantly try harder and get back with him which I didn't and now he's being nice to me. Now he waits to leave church at the same time as me to say hi and has done it the last couple days and I also got i, I also got 7 blocked calls at 2 am the week that we talked, assuming it was him. Why doesn't he say more than hi how are you?

i'm curious. that's what my brother said. i'm being defensive because i don't want to do his chores or do whatever he asked. i simply said no w an explanation. he bitched about me having an attitude with my no. i was like how? no. even if used another word or saying, i don't feel like cleaning or taking out your trash. i'm not doing what ever you're accusing me of. or something relatable. he kept on saying i'm being defensive when i say no. how? am i being defensive?? how saying no means that i'm defensive? relatable? ughhhbbb

So I started a new job about three weeks ago, and already, they have invited me to go spend time together. But the thing is that I don't want to be friends with people who work with me outside of work. I've had coworkers who I thought were friends, but they all backstabbed me. One was telling my girlfriend to breakup with me because he liked her, another one was calling me a snake behind my back, and another one was just spending time with me because my other friend was there. That's why I just don't think friends at work are necessary. But still, they have been urging me to go spend time with them. Why can't they understand that some people just want to work and that's it?!

I met a man over 6 years ago; we dated but it didn't work out so we remained friends with benefits honestly; and we are actually best friends now, although it didn't work out the first time we did get back together on and off a few times throughout the years; through one of our separations he got involved with someone who attempted to trap him to stay with her and had a baby about 3 years ago. We got back in touch and haven't been out of touch since then...there have been several times we both made attempts to move on but kept finding ways back to each other; we both put each other through a lot but made it through without ruining our friendship/relationship. Although we are only friends and prefer to keep it that way there are strong feelings involved and our "friendship" is marriage like; and we have known each other for almost 7 years; we even put each other as beneficiaries in case something happens to either of us; and he even put me in his will. He is very stressed and is dealing with child custody drama; so his major focus is his daughter and just wants to title us as friends. I have one simple question: I personally feel he is in love with me as I am him; but he won't acknowledge those feelings because he is strictly focused on fighting for his daughter.

My friend suggested movie tickets and someone to go with (me). The problem is, I don't want to be stuck watching a movie I don't like. So I asked, what about 2 movie tickets and I will say you can go with who ever you would like. Or just the 2 movie tickets and a card. My friend replied with, no, that's rude and insensitive. What do you think? Is it rude and insensitive? Please be honest? And an explanation would be nice if you do find it rude or insensitive.

My brothers girlfriends (22) house burnt in the california wildfires while she was away at college and I wanted to do something for her in this time but have clue about what so if anyone has ideas!

Occasionally, I would see my old best friend from elementary school at the college I currently attend. We walk past each other but we don't say a word to each other. I'm not sure if she remembers me because we haven't talked since elementary school. What do you think? Should I start interacting with her or just leave her in the past?

I recently found out that my friend has been smoking pot for a while. I know it s her choice but I lost 3 close friends in an accident because they were all high and I m really worried about her

I ve always had one best friend and I ve always needed that person to fully choose me back. Right now they aren t and I feel so alone so I m trying to replace them and be inseparable with someone else, but I feel like that isn t healthy. How do I learn to be okay with being alone? Any suggestions or analysis of my situation would be great. Thank you. By the way, I am a 16 year old girl.

I went to one of my friends for advice recently. When I went to her for advice, her response was really rude and bossy. Plus, her comments were quite hurtful. My dad said that's not somebody I want to be around. I blocked her from all social media sites.

To put this in context I'm in the 10th grade right now and this happened recently. So in the 7th grade I became friends with a girl(Stephanie) and very soon we became inseparable due to how much we had in common and always supported each other no matter what. Eventually, I started noticing tiny things about Stephanie.. her emotions fluctuated very frequently. For example, she could be content and have no problems with me but then the next second for almost no reason or for something very tiny she would become extremely infuriated and refused to speak with me until a few moments later. This eventually escalated to simply a cycle, one second she would be okay and then the next she would be completely livid. This led to us constantly arguing about literally everything and on my behalf, I feel as though I should have taken a better approach. What was worse is that we sit in a friend group with 2 other girls who happen to be twins.(I'll call them Erica and Sophia) Erica used to be very good friends with Stephanie in the 6th grade and they constantly talked with each other and Stephanie hated Sophia for no reason. Eventually, this friend dynamic completely changed and she does not speak to Erica at all and only to Sophia. I'm really good friends with Erica now due to this and am on good terms with Sophia. I'm somewhat regretting ending the friendship due to how awkward the group dynamic will be but at the same time feel relieved since for the most part Stephanie only hurt me...

I texted my ex bf that i miss him and he played hardball saying he was hurt etc, how would it be different this time around he didn't want to be hurt again etc(he wouldn't ask how it'd be different if he wasn't interested still?) he said he didn't want to be hurt again and I was fed up with it because despite everything he was playing hurt card I said things happened that shouldn't have and this time it would be different, after that convo a couple days past and before my trip i texted him saying despite everything i tried giving him the benefit of the doubt but it was useless.

it's a goodbye present because i will be graduating in december.. i was going to buy the plastic ornaments and then decorate them. would it be weird to give a few of them to one of my guy friends? i think it's cute because they last for a long time and can serve as a memory for future Christmas times .

I was wondering if my friend and I secide to live together to save on rent, im a 25 year old guy and shes a 26 year old woman will cause one or both of us to get struck by lightning or suffer some sort of punishment for sin for "unmarried cohabitation" if we decide to live together in order to save money. We won several ballroom competitions and I won a scratch off. What is the chance that lady luck might take our good fortune away. Will platonic cohabitation cause us to potentially end up really unlucky? can that attract lightning? Who and what controls lightning and how does it know where to strike? How do meteorites know where to strike? What decides luck? What is the worst that would likely happen if we decide to live together. What is the likely outcome. Will we get struck by lightning? How will our chances change? Does luck refuse to favor those who live in sin as catholics say. What determines who wins scratch offs? What determines who wins ballroom dance comptitions,what determines who gets struck by lightning?
