So I have this one co-worker that no one likes. He's stolen before, bully's people and is overall a shitty person. This past week while my manager was away he has made fat jokes about me and I said nothing in return. I told my boss when he came back but I don't think he's going to take the steps to fix the problem because their practically best friends. I had told him what happened and he lied and said he was going to call a higher up. All of the other coworkers are going to back me up but he won't listen to them. What can I and my coworkers do as a next step? What's a good way to get things right?

I'm going on a family holiday tomorrow to Devon, but I'm finding it hard to be happy with the idea or excited. Roughly a year ago I went on a family holiday and I wasn't in a very good headspace, I was regularly harming myself and felt very low, I spent the whole holiday crying or doing said actions and my family still to this day have no clue. Whenever I think of a 'family' holiday, I just immediately get flashbacks of the last and begin to dread it, and feel as though I'll be in the same mood this time. If anybody can help me with this issue then it would be greatly appreciated, although talking to my family is definitely not an option. Many thanks

I went out with my friend and his girl. Jokingly I made a comment about his intelligence which he didn't hear because he's really not intelligent but she heard it and gave me this angry look like with her eyes and she made this tick sound like she was upset. I said what and she just went to him to tell him how cute he is. I made a comment in a joking way although he's really not that sharp. He has the maturity of a sixth grader. He doesn't pay attention he just frolics in his own world without consequences.

There's was this guy who works at the supermarket, I think he's new there, anyways I walked in and then turned back to see where my brother was and he was just standing there looking right at me, he turned his body and everything. I looked at him briefly but he didn't look away, And then when I am about to pay he looks at my face and eyes. Anyways all of a sudden he's stopped looking at me. I've been in there three times since then and he hasn't looked and he's not paying me any attention? Why is this?

I emailed him and he replied at night telling me that I lack some qualities and shared article etc. I replied that if I'm not good enough for you then good luck. He replied that he isn't dating anyone. I asked what I was then if u say ur not dating anyone? He replied I am not dating anyone and want me time. Plz help What that mean?? I don't understand what he meant. I replied that communication and meeting is imp for every couple in relationship and we meet only once a week. If a guy needs month long breaks every few months then it's not good sign so I want to end this relationship forever enjoy singlehood. No response back from him after that been an hour.

My family is planning on driving to Connecticut to see my uncle, cousins and grandma on Friday and Saturday. I have a commitment of working Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at a local restaurant washing dishes. I've been working that schedule for a few months and always come to my shift early. I communicate with him on Facebook messenger and asked him a few days ago if I could take Friday and Saturday off to see my family, and that I'd be happy to make the shifts up either sometime next week or through his other business. I said that if he needed me there then I would work. I didn't say this since I doubt he cares about any sob story, but I see my grandma once per year or less and she's aging, plus I'm about to go away to France for a year, so this is the last time I'll see any of my family for a while. He left me on read and now I'm clueless as to how to approach him. Should I bring it up tomorrow at work? What do I say, because he clearly got my message and decided not to respond to it. I'm a 16 year old male if that helps.

I accidentally requested to follow this one teacher while scrolling through the likes and later found out I did when I received the "_______ accepted your follow request" notification. She later texted me asking me who I was. I really wanna delete that conversation because I don't want her to misinterpret this as stalking.

If a girl's dad who had her from a previous relationship ends up getting married to a different woman after his daughter goes away to college, does that make the woman her step-mother?

I once said " Love flows like a stream going through boundaries, it is in a dweller, moving between slopes, pushing beyond lines and going between folks."

It has been 29 years and she may not have been evil but just misguided. She led my mother to cut ties for 7 years with her father over her father's disease of alcoholism that he would not get help for. My Mom doing this traumatized me for many long years to this day. I needed the grandfather in my life regardless of his drinking and we could have just left early if he was drunk and nasty but not have no contact for 7 years. I began to reach out in secret at age 15 and when I was 16 after a year of fighting me over it my mother caved and let go of her ego and grudge and reached out to her father. We were close for the remaining years of his life and he had even improved we found out with controlling the drinking even if not completely. Years later I suffer from PTSD over this action my Mom took. My grandfather died 11 years ago but the doctor who led my mother to do this is still living. My Mom only had 4 sessions with her so she likely would not remember my mother. What do I say in this letter so I can address the psychiatric damage she inspired my mother to cause on me without personally attacking the doctor since I do not know her or her intention. She may not have said to totally break ties like my mother did. I want the doctor to know the damage she inspired my mother to cause on me so the doctor won't do it to others. The doctor at fault here is aged 75 according to MyLife.com and moved out of our area so I have no idea if she is still practicing or wrecking families. Again this is not revenge on the doctor which is why I did not name her here, she was likely not evil but just misguided, it is simply to prevent her or those she works with from making the same mistake 30 years later. I do not know the doctor personally at all. Angie · Really, a Year's salary, I am all in, lets make the bet. I guarantee you my mother shared everything unless you count something really small and insignificant like "Grandpa burped when drunk on Thanksgiving 1983". The reason I can guarantee is because, God love my Mom, she CANNOT KEEP ANYTHING TO HERSELF. I wish she had kept 90 percent of it to herself but it was ALL SHE TALKED ABOUT when I was a kid. She was the one just as sick if not more. So lets make the bet, LOL, I'll be rich No ill will Angie, just saying my mother shared everything, too much. She also shared many untrue things. My Mom's mistake was punishing me to get her Dad back. I was not responsible and yet I am the one disadvantaged by it. I would have been fine seeing him as long as I was supervised. My Mom cost me.

I want to forget her, need to forget her but I cannot forget?
