I started a new job at a school district and I'm the only black woman (dark complexion) working there with high rank. Really young too. I already feel like some woman don't like me or feel I deserve the job. One teacher even ignores me in the classroom the entire time without asking for my help. So I just stand there and try to be as much help as I can on my own. Another instance where I was asked how I doing and I said good. The teacher goes on about how the kids are not allowed to say good, but they have say they are well. I also have disease where I smell because my body can't process enzymes down correctly. Sometimes my breath, urine, and blood is smells, but there is no cure and I have to make a living regardless So I go to my mailbox and someone put a dental bib and gloves in my inbox in a Ziploc bag. It really hurt my feelings because I'm a very clean person who just so happens to have an uncontrollable disease. I don't know if the principle put it in there, but would this be considered bullying? Should I bring it up and ask who did it?

I work part time right now and I recently told my manager i could work 3 more days to work 5 days. I only wanted to do 2 more days but he made me choose a weekend day. I really do not know if I want 5 days. I noticed they keep asking me to do all the work and not one second do they call the other employees who are working in my department... (retail job). I am the one cleaning, going on register when the libe gets long, doing the recovery which is getting the racks from the fitting room to put merchandise back on the sales floor, getting the recovery from the stock room which is the returns recovery to go back on the sales floor and then more recovery behind the registers which is items people changed their mind about. (Probably 500 items a night) I even cover peoples 15 minute breaks in the fitting room and it turns out they take 30 minutes instead of 15 or ask me multiple times for bathroom breaks. The other workers they end up disappearing on me or they only like to clean the floor strictly leaving me to do all the other hard work and I'm being called about 50 times in 5 hours over the loud speaker. I have reduced my days before because of school or other jobs I had. I can still get 25 hours in 4 days. I am also getting married in October and would like to spend more nights with my soon to be husband for dinner and cook for him. I am currently searching for other jobs right now to get a full time job and recently had an interview. What would you do?

So, I'm currently unemployed. I plan on getting a job soon. I have about 7k in my saving, and I spend 1 dollar a day on junk food that I dont need. I also have a dog to take care of. She doesnt have any serious health issues, but her food is about 45 a month, and her heart guard is 70 dallars every 6 months. I also sometimes give her flee medication if she has them. Do you think spending a dollar a day on my self is that bad?

He read the letter in which I was looking for him and said well better late than never, but he wasn't vain or whatever, he was kinda down to earth and genuinely surprised by hearing about my feeling, said they were the most moving words someone had ever wrote to him and he doesn't understand why (why I felt that way) because he said 'Im not a big deal, I'm not even special' He was pretty surprised by the fact that he was actually the guy I had a crush on and asked me how I remembered him for all these years when he didn't even remember me at all and blushed when he met me. He was extremely romantic and protecrive of me, and asked me if we can hang out or talk, if I still want to. I told him I have to think about it. He greeted me with a sad smile as I went away and waved. I dont know what to do. Should I meet him again and see if we like each other and get engaged? He looked extremely shocked by the fact that I waited all these years to meet him again, and wrote that moving letter. He changed a bit: from a shy, closed teenager he has become a mature, confident, happy and no more resentful guy. He works and he has finally solved the problems he had. I dont know what to do cause I never had a boyfriend before and I dont know how it works. I am scared and have no clue. Should I meet him again? I am so shy, but now if he really wants me he can look for me. I found him, now it's his turn to ask me out.

A co-worker just informed me that she is bringing in donuts tomorrow because it is her birthday. Who does that? Does she know no one will get her anything so she makes her birthday a big deal herself? But my question is, would you feel bad and required to give her money for them?

When I was younger my parents use to feed me and treat me like I was an animal. They fed me nothing but mostly canned goods and cups of noodles while they made crazy dinners for themselves. They always left me home alone as a child. They would disappear for days at a time and come back home only for a few hours then disappear again. They never brought me clothes. I always was laying on the cold floor with nothing but a sheet and they made me use clothes to cover myself while they had a nice warm comfy bed with several blankets. But, worst of all they never ever hugged me and told me they loved me. I'm 23 and I feel so uncomfortable with people hugging me it's unbearable and I can't ever say I love someone. I'm 22 and never had a boyfriend. My parents use to always keep me locked in the house up until I was 19 and I moved out. I wasn't allowed to socialize with anyone outside of school honestly. Having relationships with people make me uncomfortable. And my dad was a cocaine addict who had a tendency to fall into these massive rages when high off the drug. I have this weird thing where I fall madly in love with people once I see them I could not even know them. And I constantly get attached to people very quickly..

He fidgets when talking to me, takes deep breath, looks me in the eyes while talking but can't maintain and has to look away for a second then look back (btw I've done this to because I was nervous). When he talks to me I can feel it because he's nice andhat other times he talks as if nothing. Usually instinct says if someone is interested right? Why these mixed signals?

It's with his 5th baby momma. He's in his 50s and she's 30 years younger, so it seems wrong for whatever reason. A friend of mine said my dad is the guy you go to for advice on laying pipe! I can always remember him having 1-2 girlfriends at a time, always had a great sex life. I do believe he wants to marry this girl though, if she'll do it.

My boyfriend thinks that it may be a good idea to break up with me because his schedule is about to get busy and he wants his own social life to. I support that. He wanted to grab a beer with a friend of his and i said okay and didn't communicate with him during that time. He doesn't feel like I should being putting in a lot of effort and he should be doing that. We did kind of rush into this a bit and he did put a lot of effort in the beginning of this. But I am willing to do that and he knows that but still. I told him he has two options; to do this relationship like a long distance: communicate every day but play by ear to see if we can see each other or not in person. The second option is to go on a break with ground rules: no dating anyone else during it and no expectations to hear from one another but we can communicate if we want to. I gave him the option to choose, he has a tendency to over-think. I don't want to force the choice and I want him to want it. He was supposed to give me an answer on a sunday but said he may need more time and will call soon. I replied by saying take all the time you need. I haven't heard from him at all. So advice is needed please Should I reach out with more ideas and clarifications on the two options and my feelings or wait for him to come to me
