Donald Trump, Pearl Lederman, Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden, or someone else?

My company is being taken over by another company and they notified us that our department was being eliminated. This will put 11 women out of work. The new company offered us a new position with higher pay if we complete a training course. They found an employee, Bob to give us this training at no cost to us. We take 4 hours of training each Saturday morning. Bob is 25, single and a great guy to give us his time to train us. He is not getting paid to do this training. All 11 of us gals have called him after work or after class to ask for help and he is always available to help us when we need help. We all thought the least we could do to repay his kindness was to take him to lunch after class. When I told my husband about this he had a fit. He said he did not want his wife taking a single guy to lunch. When I pointed out to him that there would be 10 other women at the lunch AND he could come if he wanted to but it did not solve his problem. Gals, what do you think. Is my husband being unreasonable? All of the other women's husbands or boyfriends don't have a problem with this. In fact they are grateful to Bob for saving our jobs. I will really look ungrateful for all of Bob's help if I don't go. What should I do?

she's in her late 30s or early 40s and she's single and i'm a 27 year old guy and the first day i fell for her she is really really pretty and her voice is beautiful and she's so kind and i stare at her every class, i know i can't do anything now but when i graduate can i maybe admit my feelings? i found her social media

me and my girlfriend had a baby a few months ago. We recently had a discussion about grandparents baby sitting when our daughters a little older and my girlfriend expressed that she doesn't want my mom babysitting for a very long time My mother is a recovering alcoholic who still drinks. I understand sort of why my gf would be a little bit concerned but she's making it seem like it's 'her way or no way'. I think she's being very unreasonable and harsh. This is my mother and my child's grandmother. I want her to have a relationship with her. My gf can't stand my mother, she's expressed her opinion on her many times. She does have a lot of problems, my mom, she's disabled due to alcohol abuse from being a raging alcoholic years ago. She can't really do much heavy lifting and still does drink occasionally. What do you think? Is my gf out of order? She says she's just being a good mother and anyone else would agree.

so I saw my favorite band echosmith at a concert on the 12th of feb and met them at meet and greet and they seemed to like me so at the end of the concert i messaged their insta account how much i was loved their concert and appreciate them and they replied with hearts and that i'm amazing and today i messaged saying i love their new music video and it said seen with no answer, now i'm worried i did something

I have already tried asking him to include me and he has not.

He gets mad I suffer and his tone of voice upsets me greatly. He is very ignorant. 

At the wedding it would seem weird I am not there and I would go if invited and be pleasant to her but if she excludes me because she is embarrassed of me then how do I get others in the family not to judge me by it and think I was the one boycotting? She is mad at me because after years of verbal abuse by her I lost it and grabbed her by the shoulder and told her how abusive she can be. She was at the time blocking a door on a family vacation to the bathroom not wanting me to use it. She is 26 but behaves like she is seven, However, she has a boyfriend and they are going on a year.

I'm a 27 year old female and I live in my mother's basement - not the ideal situation at all for me. Unfortunately I'm only a receptionist and that position only plays $11 an hour, which isn't bad but not enough for me to support myself on my own. I have hardly anything saved up at the moment due to other bills and it seems impossible for me to move out. I'd prefer to buy rather than rent as you save money in the long run but that just seems like a pipe dream right now.  Pair this with the fact that my mother is a helicopter parent and even though I'm an adult I still feel I'm a teenager living with her. She's gotten better over the years and I've talked to her about it but it hasn't fixed the problem. I feel living with her isn't helping my depression or anxiety any which makes day to day life even harder. I'm just a bit lost and I'm not sure what to do. 

I'm 15 and I have a 2 year old sister. Because I'm athletic and a boy I eat a lot. Every time I eat my sister always whines and cries because she wants my food. She always stands right in front of me while I'm eating expecting to get some and cries when I tell her it's my food and that she just ate. My mom gives her some food to shut her up but I feel like this is not good bc she's going to get spoiled and get older thinking she can have whatever someone else is having. Even after she eats a big meal, she still whines at my food like I'm supposed to feed it to her and cries when I don't. I don't think my mom giving her food every time I eat is setting a good example for how things work in life because my friend who is 16 has a brother that is 7 and and the little brother expects to get everything my friend gets like any expensive toy, and stuff like that and that's really messed up to me.

My 35 year old daughter feels that she has the right to talk to me anyway she feels like...she is disagreeable...she does not take out garbage she leaves it for me to do.she does not like  where i store the rubbish... So i told her to move it to somewhere suitable..she tells   me that she did not put it there so she's not moving it...she then shouted at me to get out of her room...although she uses my room all the time...she then told me she is angry that she has to leave her baby with me...she cannot afford daycare so I assist her with full time babysitting..she is mean all the time..even to her kids

I have a son and daughter at 3 and 6. My parents help me with them though my father is starting to become depressed and is moaning that I ask them to watch my kids while I go out. My mom is completely fine about it and enjoys my kids company. My father is just not on board with it anymore and says he doesn't want them round the house most days. How can I make him man up and take responsibility like my mother does. 

My mother had a very tough childhood, living with her parents, her dad drinking heavily and beating them both, then when she married her husband he started drinking and also abused her a lot, all before I was born, I'm including this because I feel like it may have influenced everything. For the past few months she's been acting crazy, for example, making up lies that my sister and her bf manipulate me against her (even though I'm 19 and an adult).. That I have a drinking problem because once every few months it so happens I drink twice in a week, because I go out with my brother in law to smoke some weed she tries to say he manipulates me and tells me lies about her and he's getting me into weed and alcohol which is completely untrue. I would like to add that she stays at home all the time, she only cleans because she's obsessed about that. She has illnesses such as chronic pain syndrome or scoliosis, fibromyalgia.. And I think she's depressed too, the point is. We've tried to help her SO many times and she just won't, she smokes a lot, drinks a ton of coffe. Barely sleeps or eats and doesn't go out, have ANY friends. Hasn't been in a relationship for YEARS.. She's already ruined all our family and I'm thinking of moving out and never speaking to her again. Obviously I couldn't include everything this would be 20x longer, but idk what to think? Is she delusional/paranoid? Is it a slow onset of mental illness? I don't know what to do

So, I'm 22 years old male. My father has two kids outside the family. The thing is, we're not very close to the family. My mother and their mother don't get along at all. You can describe them as enemies. My siblings from my mom don't know my father kids. But as a grown dude I have been trying to get to know my father's kids. The kids want to be close to me as well. They call me big brother. They're twin girls age 15. I feel like we're family, but there's a weird feeling and awareness about the whole situation. So advice please. How would you approach such a task? Thanks in advance!!

I am a trained medical doctor. I am also the last in my family. Yet even as a young adult... they constantly talk to me as if I am incapable of making any correct life decisions outside of strictly medicine....everything from my choice of girlfriend, to where I live. My Dad gave me his old vehicle but it keeps constantly breaking down.EVERY SINGLE person I have asked for advice says that I should sell it for whatever I can and buy a newer vehicle. Everyone from older doctors automechanics, people with an automechanic hobby, friends, my own girlfriend. But my own brothers insist that I should repair it and try selling it for more. I have been repairing this vehicle for 6months now and I still can't get any buyer willing to pay anything CLOSE to what my older brothers say. My brothers believe they are more expert than all of the businessmen I have spoken to. Like I should trust nobody's advice but theirs. Has anyone else had to deal with something similar.

Whether it be money or belongs, has this ever happened to you? What was the aftermath? What happened and how did you feel?

What were the circumstances? How could someone be so greedy and try to justify theft of something so precious to themselves?

About two years ago I lost custody of my son. When I went into the hospital to have my now two year old my sister had my son. I came home from the hospital my son came to my house with my sister. My sister was ready to go and she told my son that he needed to get his stuff together. I asked her where was he going He is at home. Things got loud so my husband came into the house and asked my sister to leave then she tried to fight him. She said that we where going to pay for this. Two days later CPS came knocking on the door and took pictures of my new born my stepkids my refrigerator etc. They found nothing. I had a non contact on my son for over 3 months it took me into a deep depression because I was unable to speak with my child. My Lawyer got us a court date so we went to court and the judge wanted to speak to my son privately. They came out he said that he wanted to stay with my sister. Later on my son told me that she made him say that and he felt bad because he wanted to be with his mom. As of last week my son told my sister that he wanted to be with me. She punched him in the face three times he jumped out of the car and walked on a busy highway in the rain. I called CPS my sister told them that she was out of town and would'nt be back until the 27th of Feb 2020 which is untrue. She came to my house just this evening trying to get my child. The unfair part about this is the case worker gets her hair done by my sister and I want my child. 

My husband's mother Joan (my mother in law) is beautiful and has a gorgeous figure. She sure does not look old enough to have a son my husband's age. I just adore her. She is a great friend, something my other married friends can not understand. Both my husband an I work. Sometimes when we get home from work Joan has a hot delicious meal ready for us or she takes us to a high end restaurant for dinner. On some of my days off from work, she takes me shopping or to see a movie and/or then to a restaurant for lunch or dinner. While shopping if I see something I like she will buy it for me. She will not let me pay for any of the restaurant meals we have. Next week we are going to Las Vegas to see a show we wanted to see and she is paying for the whole thing. I told my husband there is no way we can ever repay her for all the things she is doing for me. He told me his mom was the only girl in her family and she did not have any daughters so consider myself her adopted daughter. She is thrilled to have a female in her life to share herself with. He said she is happier now than at anytime in her life so just please continue to be her friend and if she wants to buy you things, let her. Please give me some advice on how I should feel about this. Should I feel guilty about all the great things she has done for me? I would like to find a way to show her how much I love and adore her. Any ideas? Am I the luckiest wife ever?

Hello, I'm currently 16 years old. I just want anyone to share their opinions on my situation. I've been depressed and had suicidal thoughts for 5 years now, and those stem mostly from my parents. As an Asian, they have extremely high standards for me, and that's fine. The main issue is my mother, as I believe she lack any understanding and logic. I attend an IB program and am in Junior year right now (most important out of high school). My parent own a restaurant and I've been forced to go there EVERY SINGLE DAY starting 9th grade when it opened. For starters, I told my mom that if she wants me to attend IB (rigorous program), I would want to stay home so I can actually focus and not hear clinking and dish/loud people sounds. Obviously that was thrown right out the window after the first day of 9th grade. I'm stuck there, like a prisoner, like a slave who is forced to help whenever it gets busy because she is cheap and doesn't want to hire employees. Main point I want to make is that since it's 11th grade, most important time to decide college and pretty much how life is gonna go, I've been helping her less and less as I get overloaded with homework and extracurricular activities. Today Is the day that cause me to make this post, as I have 3 test tomorrow and I didn't help her once. She yelled at me and took away my computer and leisure time enjoyment. Like, what? She punish me because I have so much hw and test?? Anyways I'd like you guys opinion.

My dad is really traumatized by his brother's alcoholism and has become convinced that I'm also addicted. Help! 

My sister has solid hatred of me cause I called her out for bullying me. Now she is going to spread a lie about me to vent and get me back. The adults all agree I am the good guy and she is the bad guy but I am scared our cousins will believe her since she is on their age level.

Like this morning at 11:00, I was sleeping because I stayed up late trying to get some work finished prior and I wake up to him fishing for papers in the closet. I ended up not being able to go back to bed and this isn't the first time it's happened. My eyes are red and fatigued and I don't know if I'm being entitled so I came on here to ask lol. Honest opinion would be much appreciated.

I am 24 years old living at home with my parents and grandmother. My sister has 2 twin boys that are 8 years old. When shes at work we take them to school and watch them for the rest of the day. They scream at the top of their lungs no matter the time of day. Whatever the touch they throw down and leave a mess everywhere. Which results in my grandmother getting angry because she would end up cleaning the mess. And to top it off they talk back and say really mean things. Just recently i had a boiling point with them. It started with them leaving their hoverboard in my mothers room and she bang and broke her toe on it. Next they were scream arguing with each other which resulted in a fist fight.Then one of them made their way into my room while i was gone and threw and rearranged all my expensive valuable stuff everywhere. Keep in mind i have adult things in my room. Finally one of them let my dog out the front door and he ran across the street and attacked another dog. I have never been so upset with them before. When my sister got home both my mother and i addressed our issues to her. She kind of shrugged it off and said they are only 8. Then the next day they return to the house with no consequences and were allowed to go out and play with their neighborhood friends. So in order to punish them I declared that they are no longer allowed in my room until i see an improvement in their behavior. How do live or cope with really misbehaved kids on the daily?

He could've gotten them but was busy yelling at someone else. Aster Rhoids --- I really do wish that was the case, that would be awesome. Unfortunately he got mad cause there was an error on getting the tickets and it shows him how dumb I am and why he is ignorant of me. 

He promised to help me see this out of town relative of his when they are here at Easter.

I'm a 16-year-old guy. I grew up in a loving family. I have 4 siblings (a brother (32), a sister (30), a brother (19) and a sister (14)). I wasn't even the youngest so nothing was suspicious at all. But I realized that my older sister, Hannah, always took care of me. She spent the most time with me out of my siblings, took care of me, loved me and was there for me most of the time. When my father passed away, it was the worst day of my life. I cried, went crazy and reacted negatively towards everyone. I didn't even think about what my siblings were going through. I just thought about myself. It was only yesterday I found out the truth. I got into a big argument with my 19-year-old brother and he blurted out: "You're not even my brother." He then told me that Hannah is my mother. There was a complete silence afterwards. No one said a thing. Everyone just sat there looking completely shocked. So it was true. I was completely taken aback. I had no idea what to do or how to react. The next day, Hannah told me everything. She got pregnant and had me at 14. Her parents decided that they would be my legal guardians and that I would grow up thinking they were my real parents as they thought it was the best for me. Apparently my oldest brother also knew it but he never mentioned it. Hannah is married and has three childen in fact, a boy and two girls (9, 8 and 6). And she wants me to move in with her and her husband. I'm completely lost and don't know where I belong. What do I do?

I grew up with an awful father. Like really awful. He loved us. But had nothing to do with raising us. Drugs, jail and no job our entire lives. I'm almost 30. And I just found out that the man I grew up thinking was my father is not. Looking for advice from people who have gone through this before? Every Thing i read says the man that raised you is your father so nothing changes. But I had NO father figure. I don't hold grudges so I've never been angry with him. But just never been able to "love" him I guess the "love" i showed was always out of pity. Which is awful but i have always felt awful for not being able to have an actual connection with him. Another piece of info is my bio dad has a family and they are all very close.
