My dad has been a drug addict my whole life. He has always come in and out of my life through the years. He mostly kept his distance because he didn’t want to hurt me. I have an amazing grandmother who has always tried to compensate for his absence as well as always picking up his pieces. I have had a lot of horrible experiences from his history of drug abuse, throughout my teenage years from when I was 11 I would get phone calls from random people saying that if I didn’t give them money that he owed they would hurt him. Then the next day or next week he would be found beat up in a gutter somewhere. This was so traumatising as I would always think it was my fault, my mum and step dad would change my number (I only had a phone for when I would go to school or to contact my family). Sometimes he would come to my grandparents on ice and try to hurt them. He never hurt me. When I was 17 in my high school exams (HSC in Australia) I had turned up at my grandparents one afternoon to find o...

I don’t really know what to say, my relationship with my girlfriend has turned toxic and now I look at it, it has been for a few months. She was more than okay at the beginning of the relationship, taking most jealousy situations with ease and accepting I’m my own person. Slowly as things got serious these tendencies just arose. It’s like something switched in her head and at the moment we’re both hoping it’s down to the contraceptive pill that she is on, as it’s the mini pill and is known to cause depressive episodes etc. However we can’t be sure. I’ve lost friendships with some really cool female friends because my girlfriend is just overly jealous, cry’s endlessly when a situation of going out without her comes into play, and then passively try’s to talk me out of going. When I’m out without her it’s constant unease at the situation. She’s been through my phone countless times almost everytime we meet and has done it once whilst I was asleep. But I suppose the thing that gets me th...

Hey, guys! I’m a 20 year old female college student & I constantly get into massive arguments with my family because of their “boomer mentality”. I’m not sure how to communicate with them anymore or even maintain a healthy relationship. Both of my parents plus all of my grandparents went to college & earned their degrees in commerce or the humanities.They are all highly paid & successful white-collar professionals. They said I should pursue law school because I’m articulate, analytical & insightful lol. I have told them that I won’t pursue a law degree unless I get a super high score on the LSAT ( above 90th percentile) & get into the top 20 schools. I heard the legal field is too over saturated to break into unless I attend a top school & get good internship opportunities. When I made the decision to go to school for nursing instead of economics ( pre-law) , they were all shocked to death! They are constantly telling me how I’m wasting all of my potentials ...

I used tinder as an outlet to find people who have cars to take me out more. I had so much fun on my tinder dates. But none of them worked out more than a year. Me and my last tinder date just broke it off this afternoon (refer to previous post). I used apps like bumblebff to find other females to meet up in my area but most of the girls live over 30 miles away. I don't have a car or a license. I don't know how to drive. But I'm going to try to make that happen this year because me not knowing how to drive is really holding me back. For the time being, I don't know what to do. I'm thinking about installing a dating app again and finding more dates but dating is stupid to me. From my experience, nobody is going to be there for the long run. And I think I'm choosing the right guys when I do background checks and when they have college degrees and seem to be cool people. But they just want to fuck and they will ditch you for another girl if given the chance. I...

This is my second post (original in DeadBedrooms) and realized I should have added this part in my original post in which I was asking about whether or not it is time to leave my marriage. Has anyone felt like they can't leave their marriage (after trying counseling, talking, seminars, mentoring, praying,etc) because being unhappy doesn't seem like a good enough reason? I mean, my husband (despite flaws and our issues in original post) is, when it comes down to it, a decent man. We are Christian, and I know what the Bible/church says about divorce. There is no cheating or abuse. I am just desperately unhappy and have no reason to believe things will change based on his patterns. I am apathetic and sad. I am the LL. I understand (as much as I'm able and not having a Male brain) that he is frustrated in every sense of the word. He often uses Bible verses about how two become one and being one flesh and how we don't act like a married couple, etc. He has implied I'm...

Hi everyone. I’m 8 months pregnant and my husband said I was fat. I’m 31 years old. I gained 31 lbs and was already overweight 170 when I got pregnant so he isn’t wrong. I’m going to try to eat healthier (now) and work out really hard (after baby). My question is. I’m embarassed to be seen by him right now. I don’t want to be seen by him. I can’t even eat in front of him because I’m worried about how I look when I eat in front of him. I’m worried about him seeing my thighs during delivery. I basically just want to disappear until I look okay again. What do I do in the meantime? To avoid him being even more unattracted to me? Is he always going to remember this and never be head over heels for me again even if I lost weight? I’ll always be the girl that was once overweight.

This is something I would like to do to my wife but I am not quit sure why. I sadly think its because of porn. I know there are different opinions about porn but lets just say that it has had a negative impact on me and I try to avoid it. BUt still this is something that has stuck with me, wanting to finish on her face. The thing is I dont want to be disrespectful to her and I want her to enjoy it if we are trying something new. So I wonder if getting cum on your face does give some pleasure or is it just disrespectful? Is there a way to make it a more pleasurable thing?
