So he's a young doctor I work with (34 and im 29). We've had our spats or when he's told me something he's realized i have a leader personality since i don't take it well when someone gives me orders (also applying to medical school). I was in his office the other day and he said yeah even working in this company he isn't his own boss might as well work for uber I said yes we go to school for 10 years and still not our own boss. Then he said well at least I'm your boss smiling. I didn't like what he said and looked to my side. He said you didn't like that did you and smiling. I said no. He said I know smiling. I said how do you know? He said because no one can tell you anything.. not even your man, looking down and smiling (mind you i've never mentioned a man or anything, we've been workign together 2 months and barely becoming comfortable with eachother. I found this strange I said yes because i'm powerful and it has to be equal and he has to respect me. He said yes but you have to put down your walls a bit. I said yes because I don't let people in, no one's on my level. He said I know no one's on my level either. I said really? he said yeah I have my walls up too. I said then why are you telling me to put my walls down when yours are up? He said because I'm working on lowering my walls too. Why did he have this conversation with me? He also always smiles when talking to me, makes jokes etc. I found it so strange that he referred to my man?

Do you understand what it is?

There's a lady I used to work with and I left the company four years ago. I moved to another city. When I went grocery shopping and went through her line, she said, "You used to work here a long time ago. Are you going to school?" Why did she say and asked me that question? Do you all know why she didn't ask me if I still live in the state I moved to? Did she possibly forgot or didn't want to ask me?

This guy and I are very on and off. Like we'll be laughing and having the best time one day, and the next we'll argue non stop. He criticises EVERYTHING I do. If I say I like a tv show or something, he immediately dislikes it. It's as though he's doing it on purpose, even though he insists he's not. He literally could not agree with me on one tiny thing, it's tiring. He also insults me all the time and says really mean things. When I bring it up and ask him to stop, he just laughs it off and says he's building character. I'll admit I've also not been the best friend to him either. When he says mean things to me, sometimes I retaliate because I get so angry. I can be very emotional, so I'm not sure if I'm just overreacting? I don't know. I just know that the friendship isn't okay, and it hasn't been for a long time. I've tried to cut him off and take a step back in the past, but we're both part of a small friend group so I see him all the time and we usually just start having fun again and I feel as though I overreacted and continue with the friendship. I just don't think the friendship will end because I'm not willing to leave the group, and I'd rather put up with him than be alone. What should I do?

im 14 , my bestfriends dad said im not allowed back to their house until i shave. I am confused, why would he care if I had hairy legs or not??

My very close friend's girlfriend broke up with him. His ex has one friend who we all know. This mutual friend is very opinionated. She wanted the ex to break up with my friend because of his political preferences. I don t know if the ex broke up with him specifically because of this mutual friend, but the ex stopped talking to the mutual friend after the breakup. All this took place several months ago. The mutual (who i very rarely talk to) continues to talk badly about my friend behind his back. Should I let my friend know what our mutual friend is saying and doing?

please rate them both for their looks from 1-10?

I have a friend who ask me multiple questions such as do I look too fat too skinny, are the colors, write, the poses, etc.... I want to put this one in but it doesn t match with my other posts, what about this caption or that caption. Yet I have been trying to get a social media marketing job or something similar they have refused to be a reference because according to them they do all the work such as the editing the positing it to their instagram, the promoting it by using hashtags. This person has also be prone to give out my information to potential jobs without my permission and quite a few times these potential employers thought that this person has worked for me when we were just co-workers also is it that they are actually telling these people I m their boss or is it that these people just assume that this person worked for me. Please help.

I'm a white person and moved into a white people area after living all my life in a urban ghetto area. Everyone seems to bully and people randomly start stuff with me. I seem to get grouped bullied in every social setting and people keeps trying to start stuff with me. Everyone seems to be the same (dress talk and act the same and physically look alike) and stick together. Everybody seem to not let me in. They slur me as being 'different' or they misinterpret my actions and use of words which caused them become hostile with me. They won't reason with me. They make fun of the way I talk. Some I've told I'm not from this area and they say 'go back where you came from' They seem to intolerate me because I am from a different class. Any suggestions?

I am really in a tight spot right now. To give you a backstory, my best friend is currently 11 weeks pregnant. She became homeless after bailing out her bf from jail and paying for his lawyers. As a result, she also lost a good paying job and was working part time, but had to quit to due to her high risk pregnancy. Her boyfriend never repaid her (he feels like it was her obligation). He is also homeless and does not handle stress well. Most recently, he yelled at her for wanted him to be at her ultrasound because he had to work . Her boyfriend stays at his parents small one bedroom apartment and sleeps on the floor. Her bf recently got a good paying job, which is permanent after the probationary period. My friend is hopelessly in love. She does everything for her boyfriend with no regards to her own well being. I want to help,but there are major red flags: Red Flag 1: She got off birth control while being homeless to get pregnant Red Flag 2: She is temporarily staying at her boyfriend's sister house, and took a job "working from home" despite not having a legitimate residency Red Flag 3: She wants to quit working after the baby and have her boyfriend provide for her and the child Red Flag 4: She wants to have another baby immediately after this one Plus, my decision is not just my own, my husband feels very strongly on not taking care of another man's responsibility. I have tried to tell her to apply for government assistance, but she is stalling and moving very slowly.

I'm a 17 year old guy and I'll be in 12th grade next year. I'm very shy and quiet and never bother anyone. Even though I keep to myself, there's a group of three guys who physically and emotionally torment me during and after school. They torment me and my best friend, too. Both of us are real quiet guys who keep to ourselves, but they get a kick out of beating us, slamming us against lockers, calling us losers and freaks, and chasing us down the halls. Last year they even threw me in a garbage dumpster behind the school during gym class. They really intimidate us and even harass us when we walk home together after school. We were both new kids in school last year and that's how we both became good friends. My friend is black and they all call him racist names and threaten him. They're extremely violent and making our lives miserable. We did nothing to them yet they get a kick out of it. They said if we tell anyone, they'll make things "ten times" worse for us. So I feel trapped. September is only a month away and I have severe anxiety. I just know they're going to continue their torment on us. What can j do? Please help

Making them easy targets

Okay so 1) money is not an issue, scholarship covers everything and 2) the college is about 15 min from home. My mom says she'll respect whichever decision i make, i can tell she probably wants me to stay tho. I am just so bored and my parents own a restaurant an hour away from home and work all day so I rlly only see them at night. I really want a social life and you know friends, idk what to do tho since im so used to being alone and being in a dorm would get me out of my comfort zone but i just don't know. Also please note I love alone time, I love privacy but I also hate that I love alone time... i just am torn

Hello so it was my aunties birthday today and we had lunch and everything and my mum said I could go to my friends birthday party after. I had a friend pick me up but when she did my mum shut the door on my foot and said I wouldn't get anything for my birthday. She continued to call me disloyal and disgusting. My mum blocked me on messages. What can I do my family is so mad and i don't know how to fix this situation.

I told her "I would walk at night but my parents think I might be kidnapped or hurt or something" and she said "well we could plan an evening to walk together. you can let them know you have a friend :)"

Like when I say something that is weird or not important and the person just say okay??? Like said something wrong or what I'm saying doesn't makes sense. I feel like what I'm saying is not important and it makes me feel bad and I overthink about it and trying to say what I should've said. So is it rude if someone said "okay???" Or it's just normal and I'm just being sensitive?

It's like it's the cool thing to do nowadays amongst single women who can't get a date is to constantly bash men every single day with multiple male hate posts. Like #allmenshouldidie #menarerapists #killallmen #toxicmasxulinity etc etc

I'm 22 years old. I'm still living with my parents to save money I have a job and I'm pretty social with the people at work. I have friends but don't hang with them much anymore I mostly do things by myself. I like a girl and I'm wondering if this going to affect me trying to get with her?

so my best friend has been dating this guy for about 5/6 months now. No one in out friend group has met him (which is very weird for us) and it seems they fight every other day. long story short. she found out he was married, he claims hes getting a divorce and only lied to be given a real chance at dating her. he says hes going to handle everying and they will still be able to move in together by sept. or so. there's a whole lot more BS that goes into it but no matter what lies come to surface to BS he pulls shes blinded by it all. At first i thought it was her being stupid for love but i now i feel that he is also emotionally/mentally manipulative. Do i try to reach her one last time by laying it all on the table and trying to get her to see the truth from a 3rd party perspective? or let it go and let this (avoidable) lesson run it's course? In which case i don't see our friendship coming out whole
