And why? My mom keeps asking for grandkids and we’ve been married for a little over a year. Submitted August 12, 2019 at 11:57PM And why? My mom keeps asking for grandkids and we’ve been married for a little over a year.

I literally don't have a clue who's clothes those are and I don't know how to explain it to my wife because it looks so bad. I seriously just sit on my ass all day, work, hang with her, and play video games. I'm honestly a huge loser who wouldn't have some other random girl over. Like why the heck is there even someone else's clothes in her laundry. I feel like it's someone she knows but just forgot. I'm so confused and legit have no idea how to handle this. I know she should trust me, but still it looks so shitty on my end when I didn't do anything.

Has anyone started dating someone who had been a friend for a couple years? If so, how? Submitted August 12, 2019 at 11:31PM Has anyone started dating someone who had been a friend for a couple years? If so, how?

I didn’t know where to post this, apologies if it’s in the wrong spot. A few years ago, when online dating, a guy messaged me a few times. The first time, I didn’t give him my number and I wasn’t that serious about dating. The second time, we got to chatting and I gave it to him. Turns out we were from the same area and knew a lot of people in common. We got kind of heavy in our texts and calls and seemed to connect and he told me how attractive he thought I was. Then, he randomly stopped texting, so I took the hint. I don’t know why. We never met up but he always kind of lingered in my mind. We both got into relationships soon after. He and his new gf got pregnant and moved in together. I got engaged. A year or so later, my relationship falls apart. He came up as a suggestion on ig so I clicked out of curiosity and accidentally watched his story. He promptly added me and I followed him back. For the last year or two, he’d like and comment a bit on my stuff (which I don’t really do ...

I've always been terrible at break ups, I always drag it out and it never happens. I've been with my girlfriend for a little over a year and its been alright, theres been some issues like in every relationship but she was talking about the future and she wants kids, I don't think I want them and she also has had a very low/non existent sex drive while my sex drive is very high so that is not working well. We live about an hour apart. ​ All my friends tell me to end it, etc, I do think I should but I do like her, but she does love me much more than I do probably which its not fair for her either. She told me she would wait for me to change my mind on kids or whatever. So if I never change my mind, then its just wasted time since it will have to end eventually right? ​ I don't know what to do and I don't know when I'll see her next either.

We’re not exactly dating yet we like each other a lot and we’ve spoken about it and future plans and done... some things... (I’ll leave that to your imagination) but we work together and what the hell do I tell my parents (who I moved back in with after uni) I’m financially independent (living with my parents but I pay rent and have saved a deposit to purchase my own place) ok I’m rambling I’m trying to persuade you I’m mature. I’m more worried that at his age he’ll push to want kids pretty soon. Ok everything is great apart from being on a different stage of life. Do o go for it? Or put the breaks on now?

Say you've been dating a girl for 2-3 months, things are going well and were ready to make things more serious but you catch her snooping on your phone. She denies she was so you give her the benefit of the doubt but once she's gone, you check the last opened apps on your phone and you realize she really was snooping on your messages. What do you say/how do you react the next time you see her?

I’m an 18 year old guy who’s about to enter college. So around back in May I added this girl from my senior year gym class (I’ve never actually spoken to her I maybe once said hi) on Snapchat and she didn’t actually add me back till yesterday.

I (27F) am attractive... not trying to sound uppity. I am labeled as “intimidating” because of my looks, extroverted personality, and sex appeal. Because of that, I have not had much experience with being ghosted. I met a guy who I was sooooo excited about. We met up one time for a drink, then went out Friday and Saturday night two weeks later. We made out and fooled around at his place on Saturday night. He was vocal about being attracted to me and looking to start a relationship, and so was I. Everything seemed fine on Sunday. Then Monday thru today (Monday) he started distancing himself and the plans we made on Saturday night fell through because he was busy with work. I’m convinced that I have been ghosted, although his text game is weak to begin with. I believe the ghosting has something to do with his work... he left today (supposedly) overseas until the end of the year. TLDR - Do guys ghost to keep the door open for possibly picking things up in the future/at a better time?...

Not asking for advice, just looking to hear from other people: how do you personally know when you're being confident about a romantic situation as opposed to being optimistic? Do you feel/act different?

I’m 18F, 4’7” (yes, you read that right) and I have a baby face. I usually get mistaken for an 8-13 year old. It fucking sucks. I get carded for an energy drink. Guys never approach me. No one believes me when I tell them I’m 18. When I try to approach guys, they look scared because they think they’ll get into trouble for speaking to me because they think I’m a kid. I don’t know what to do. I’ve tried applying make up in different ways to appear older, wear more mature clothes and heels. Nothing. None of it is working.

I'm in a sticky situation is and am looking for advice on how to best navigate it. I (23m) met a wonderful girl (23f) on a dating app that I've been seeing since may. I have real feelings for her but have at times felt like I've been getting mixed signals. We're both at busy times of our lives but she is significantly busier. Because of her schedule we don't see each other very often (every 8 or 9 days) and sleep together infrequently. Additionally we rarely communicate digitally. We mostly text to schedule. I'm making this sound bad but in person everything is really really great. My feelings are so strong I'm slightly nervous I'm lovestruck and not thinking clearly. ​ The biggest problem thus far has been getting some time with her. We did plan a weekend getaway trip that went really well and had me feeling a little better about things but after the trip, she went away for a 10 days (over 2 weekends) and we had very little contact. Prior to this tr...

Let me give you some info about my background and current situation so you can understand my question better. I'm (M)(27) living in a muslim country where arranged marriages is the common thing, especially among the social class i belong to, still living with my family, jobless, not possesing any kind of assets, a steady income source but not sufficient, not planning on continuing my life here in this country, hence not planning on having anything attaching me to it like building a family, but I'm not gonna lie, i still need to feel having a significant other existing in my life, getting constant attention and being loved by a girl ... and every other thing that a relationship entitles, and considering that dating either ends by a marriage or a breakup, then why should i date if i can't afford getting married, or let's say why should i get my heart broken?

It sucks, but there's a couple routes as I see it: - live off the grid and be pretty much self sufficient - try to work only for non-profits, government entities or co-op organizations, consider lean FIRE if you can make enough (this is what I'm doing) - dive head-first into the rat race, stockpile as much cash as you can and FIRE as soon as possible August 13, 2019 at 12:16AM

He advanced on you while you were unconscious/asleep, that is 100% not okay. You could be fully clothed or naked, the fact of the matter is you never gave consent to be touched that way, and he still touched you. You are completely valid in feeling the way you feel, and what he did was wrong(illegal even). I'm so sorry that happened to you. I don't have any advice really, just that you are completely right to feel the way you feel. August 13, 2019 at 12:13AM

No I am not mad at him. I am going through a period of serious emotional growth and a “glow up” in a sense. I’ve known this guy for five years and when we first met we ended up hooking up a few weeks later. I honestly really did like this guy a lot. He is cute, a gentleman, charming, has his shit together, and likes a lot of the same things as me. We hung out a few more times but never hooked up again. I made it clear I was interested in dating him but he told me he wasn’t looking for a girlfriend at the time. Years have passed and we’ve been friends on social media the whole time. He’s had a way to contact me the whole time. He’s had my number the whole time. Two weeks ago we hung out again after he offered to take me out for drinks and dancing. We had a great time but did not hook up. He never tried to and I had no interest in that, since I am not interested in sleeping with people I am not exclusive with anymore. What really opened my eyes was when at one point during the night ...

Now that I'm single again, I want to get back out there but am honestly borederline antisocial, I really only leave the house for work and shopping. I fell into my relationship by reconnecting with an old high school friend but don't want to wait for something like that to fall into my lap again.

Taking off your pants absolutely did not mean that you were inviting this kind of behavior. You were candid with him about your asexuality and had a set of understood boundaries, and if all it took was a couple of drinks and dozing off for him to violate those boundaries, then it really doesn't matter if your pants were off or on. Being comfortable enough with a friend to undress and doze off together is a type of platonic intimacy that a lot of us would like to enjoy. It's not your fault for assuming he would respect that. I've been there too. It just sucks. August 13, 2019 at 12:08AM

I felt the same way as you when I was 15 (I’m also a girl) and now, at 19, I still feel the same. If the label works and it makes you feel comfortable, use it! Know that you’re allowed to use any labels you like, and if they stop feeling like ‘you’ in the future, you’re allowed to change them. That doesn’t mean you will of course, it’s just good to know. Label yourself in any way that makes you happy and comfortable!! August 13, 2019 at 12:06AM
