I moved out of my parents house in the beggining of the year to study in my dream college. When i got accepted i couldnt believe my eyes, i spent a whole year studying for the exam, my parents were so proud of me and were so much supportive. But the problem were that the college was a 6 hour away from my home, so i needed to move out. I have made my own savings specially for this moment and i thought i got everything ready. Boy... was i wrong. For some personal reasons, everything went wrong the first 6 months and i was forced to use my savings more than i planned to and now im flat broke. Im usually very responsable with my money, so when i assured my parents that i got it, they believed me. (They were offering help in case i didnt have enough to cover my expenses in the process of looking for a room). I recently got a job but the pay doesnt cover half of my expenses, and i think ill be in trouble with my credit card soon. I didnt tell my parents half of what was going on until t...

I've been casually seeing a girl for 7 months now and it's been going good. We met on Tinder and said that we would only have sex with no strings attached. A couple of months in, I noticed that she wanted something more serious. I said that I'm not ready for a relationship, which I wasn't at the time. She's almost all of the time pissed of for her 'not being a priority' in my life, that I don't think about her enough, cancel our dates etc. She actually dumped me once but we both felt that wasn't the right thing to do and started hanging out again. And I don't want her to feel bad because she's a good and insecure person (like me) and I like her, but that's it. I don't want to start a relationship, that connection just isn't mutual. Then again, she's given me some much-needed self-confidence that I'm likable, good looking and also good in bed. So I feel like I owe her for that, she always listens to my problems and actual...

Last spring, I kept running into a guy at a coffee shop at my university that we both frequented fairly often. While I never worked up the courage to talk to him, we would frequently make eye contact and smile at each other. Over the summer I figured out his name, and dm'd him on Instagram, and he ended up asking me out on two dates. I felt like we had great conversations in person and through text but leading up to and after our second date, he became increasingly less responsive to my texts, sometimes taking hours or even a day to get back to me. This made me sad because I figured it meant that he was no longer interested in my but I never expressed that to him. While we had a good time on our second date, this continued after the date and after a few days I eventually stopped responding to him. This happened probably 3 weeks ago and we haven't spoken since then. While I felt and still feel really interested in him, I felt like he didn't seem too interested in carrying ...

Made a throwaway. As the title says, Joe (25m) and I (24f) have been together since high school for over 7 years. We've never broken up - we've had blow up arguments where one of us has questioned it, but we would always choose to stay together and work things through. I feel like we are pretty stable in our relationship now. ​ He's a great guy and everything I would want in a life partner. I've always felt so lucky to have him - patient, supportive, gives me space when I need it, loves me unconditionally, respectful to my family, we have physical chemistry. So why am I feeling conflicted about us? ​ I've always been a very independent person, and he's respected that. So I figured it was normal for me or that I was just growing into the independent woman that I am when I started feeling unsure about a year ago (and it's phased in and out) whether I wanted to have kids (he does, or did. Now he's not sure too). Then, it progressed to not being sure if...

I feel so trapped. I’m pregnant and we are getting married this year. Most of the time we have a lot of fun and he is so good to me but then he is so impatient. Even his mum told me early on about his impatience and his friends say it too. I can’t drive yet so he drives me around a lot. I never demand things but ask if I can have a lift somewhere. The public transport around our area is not good so if I have to go further I need a lift. He does not complain and I do feel bad (I’m working on getting my license) He gets really grumpy when he is tired, he is a shift worker and of course that is a full on job. But even on his days off he would stay up to the early hours of the morning and if he has to get up he is grumpy. I’m worried with a baby coming along that he will lose his shit because of it. A few weeks ago he lost it at me because he drove me to the mall and I couldn’t find anything that I liked. The thing is, I wanted to go to another mall but he asked if we can go to this o...

I'll start with the disclaimer; i know dating coworkers isn't a good idea. However, she works in a different department/building, and i'm also looking at switching jobs soon, either in a 3rd department in our company, or a different company altogether. Anyways, my coworker started a couple of months ago. We'd talk a lot in the beginning whenever i was her way or she was my way. We talked so much that other people were surprised how much i knew about her (she'd tell me everything about herself/her background). What i found interesting was she was normal for a while. Then i told one of her coworkers (in front of her) that i was going away for a week for a wedding ceremony, and the mutual coworker said i could find some girls there. Since then i've noticed a little more attention/interest. Just recently we were talking, i was joking that i felt 50 years old, she said i looked good for a 50 year old. Then i told her i like hiking, she said where she went for sch...

(TL;DR: Women talk to get things off their chest. Men talk to solve problems and get information. If you can't provide that support and I have to parse and filter information just to avoid the risk of you freaking out and making my situation bigger than what I'm actually dealing with, I'm talking less. ) with all that said, to keep it short as possible. our relationship is pretty strong for the most part. this is the only recurring problem besides money whenever it's an issue, but that's everybody so whatever. anyway, i'm Tired of arguing with my girlfriend for like, 6 hrs going over the same 3 topics that end devolving into arguments about why were arguing (and nothing about the original topic). She never wants to admit she's wrong about ANYTHING because she feels that, because she's hurt about a situation, anything she does or says by that point is 100% justified. I'm tired of rehashing every situation we've gone through in the past because...

My (19 F) boyfriend (19 M) and I have known each other since 14 and have been dating for a couple years now. It’s been a rocky start as in high school we weren’t the most mature but we have figured our relationship out for the most part. He just graduated from trade school in a condensed 1 year program that gave him a variety of trade licences’. He liked being at college but did not enjoy what his program would require him to do as a job. He mostly went into the program because his mom pressured him, instead of taking a year off to figure out what he should do. He’s been considering doing an apprenticeship to get a different licence and to get paid while doing it but this would mean we would have to do long distance. I’m getting my bachelor degree, 5 hours away from where we both went to high school, so we are already doing long distance and it isn’t easy. He just got offered a job, in a field he’s never tried but is interested in, across the country where he will do an apprenticeship...

My (27F) partner (29M) works 60 hour weeks, most weekends and he's so incredibly exhausted all the time. Lately we've been having little issues creep into our relationship and I'm starting to feel exhausted. We've been together for a year and he's been an amazing person until what feels like the last few weeks. We can't plan to do things together anymore or enjoy our life because he works so much. I've tried to communicate with him about it, but he doesn't get it. He said "What if I just had a hobby instead, you still wouldn't see me" to which I replied "But that would be good for you". He doesn't work Sundays most of the time which is all we have. I'm not sure where to go from here, I recently found a porn message group he was in with his work friends which upset me a fair bit. He made a comment about my weight a few weeks ago when he was trying to describe that he's at an advantage for being tall (I've been ca...

We met 5 months ago on Tinder. We aren't official but dating exclusively. I haven't really met many of his friends and his social circle is tons larger than mine. I get really confused though because everytime I mention I did something, he asks who with. And then he asks if he's met them before. I find it strange because if I asked the same question, I would have no clue who most of his friends are. Am I reading too much into this or is this sign of a being controlling? Tl;DR everytime I talk about doing something, he asks who with and if he's met them. Am I reading too much? Submitted September 06, 2019 at 11:59PM We met 5 months ago on Tinder.

Disclaimer: i'm on mobile. I understand I'm probably the bad guy here since I essentially started the relationship with one foot out the door, but now all of a sudden its been a year and i really don't see us having a future and i don't feel the same way I did when we first started dating. I just don't want to hurt him so I keep putting it off. We've definitely had our fair share of arguments but there isn't anything in particular that i feel prompted me losing interest. Its just becoming much more apparent that we aren't a good fit, in my eyes anyways. For example, Im working really hard to better myself and be healthy by working towards being vegetarian/vegan which we've talked about a fair amount, but he's very much a man's man and often expresses his dislike of me not making dishes with meat very often, even though he knows why and is perfectly capable of buying/cooking meat for himself. Also I'm trying to become more low waste in...

I really want to preface this and say that I really really really like him. I've never found someone that I was sexually, mentally, and emotionally attracted to, and hes the first. I want this to work out. We've officially been together for over a month now. And the problem started about 2 weeks ago. We were both having a really shit week and he started being distant during this time. I have depression and anxiety, and one night it got really bad - I was suicidal. I've only ever been able to speak to two people about this in my entire life. One being my ex boyfriend & the other being my therapist. It took me nearly 2 years to tell my ex-boyfriend how I was truly feeling, so its a big thing to tell someone. My ex and I broke up at the beginning of the year, and during this time, we hadn't spoken to each other in a month. But I was feeling horrible and contacted him that night. I asked if I could come over and so I can talk to him about my feelings. I didn't wa...

So to start we met at work and she messaged me first and I decided to give it a shot. While talking to me about getting into a relationship and dating and shit she was with another coworker and I didnt know because they never held hands or anything while at work. So I still worked thru that even thoninshould have quit there. She said they broke up only for me to find out they were still toghter while we were. Then I stopped talking to her and she begged for me back so I did. She stopped talking to him then i found out she still live with her ex fiance that she has a kid with but idk if i believe that they arnt toghter anymore. And now she also started talking to the other dude again and idk what to believe anymore i just need peoples questions or opions. Tl:dr girl is lying and possibly dating other dudes while trying to be with me what should I do?

Okay so at the end of the month I’m driving over 28 hours total (Australia rip) to go to my SO’s best friends birthday party. I’ve been formally invited by an invite in the mail and I’ve spoken to the birthday girl over FaceTime when she calls my SO and she seems cool so I do want to go. So I applied for over a week off so we can drive down and back up. Last night I expressed some concern that I’m not going to know anyone but her and I’m really bad in crowds of people I don’t know in a social setting. She’s suggested I don’t go because she doesn’t want to have babysit me all night. I see where she’s coming from because I don’t want to ruin her night either but I thought that was a bit of a shit way to go about me not being a social butterfly. Has anyone been in this situation or have any advice? Tldr: going to SO’s best friends party and won’t know anyone, raised concerns to SO and she said don’t come if I’m just going to be babysitting you all night. Submitted September 07, 2...

I was an atheist for many years and a lot of people got to know me during that time or haven't realized I'm anything else but I very recently converted to a religion that is less than popular among my friend groups for some reasons that are good and some reasons that are bad I don't know exactly what I believe beyond a point and as such I'm very low key about it and don't bring it up and still feel like the same person as before, not a whole lot has changed about me the newness and differentness of the conversion experience is making it not terribly easy for me to deal with (or talk about lol) either, it's a pretty big change and big changes are uncomfortable, there's a lot of questioning and a lot of self-doubt and it's just a very weird time to be me here's basically what happened today: me: wow I want to watch a zombie movie friend: hey I'm uncomfortable with your religion let's discuss it me: zom...bies? 😢 how do I get people t...

I met someone on tinder and we agreed on Monday to meet up for drinks at the bar near my work. We were supposed to meet at six. I was here at a quarter til, and I haven’t heard back after letting them know I’m here. It’s about a quarter to seven. So basically I feel like I’m about to get stood up again and I’m not certain what I’m gonna do about it. I’ve had so many dates cancel or reschedule only to eventually cancel anyway, and have been really looking forward to this. Just not looking forward to driving home after sitting here for nothing. But what the hell, this is dating I guess.

We were supposed to have our third date tonight, however she texted me expressing how she isn’t looking to date at the moment and she doesn’t want to ruin our friendship. While I appreciate her text and not ghosting me, it still sucks. Part of me thinks maybe she just didn’t feel a connection, and she felt like saying “she wasn’t ready to date” was an easy way to let me down. But I also don’t want to assume anything. I bought a bottle of champagne for us to watch the sunset tonight, but now I’m about to crack that bottle and have it to myself. Cheers ladies and gents! Onto the next one!
