RelationshipI f26 was invited to my sister's (18th) birthday few days ago at a restaurant. My husband didn't come because he said he had a meeting dinner with some clients. This made my family feel let down especially my sister who wanted him there and also her 18th birthday was a big deal to her obviously. To my surprise, When I arrived I noticed that my husband was having his meeting at the same place, h...

OtherI have a son thats entering 8th grade and a daughter thats entering 9th grade. Both of them have always been bookworms. Very studious and cerebral, just like their Dad. I also played sports all through school and I value the experience that brings. I've always tried to push them to join sports, but neither one of my kids wanted to. I tried to insist...maybe they would have fun? We dont know ti...
OtherI have Irish great, great grandparents. I live in England, as has all of my relatives since 1910. I have recently started to have an American live with me, and she introduces herself to people as "Irish". Now, I know Americans do this weird thing where they believe they are where their ancestors came from. We Europeans find this hilarious, but what ya gonna do? Recently, I have been re...
Food & DietAmy (19) and I have never gotten along well but what she did recently took the cake. I have followed a strict vegan d*et for 12 years now, it's som**hing very important to me & Amy is not unaware of this. Her father and she have lived with me in my house now for 2 years and she has never had a right att*tude. Always rude and snide, ordering her father around and trying to do the same to me,...

OtherMy friend is obviously gay. He does nails with the girls, he follows make-up tutorials on YouTube, speaks in a higher tone of voice, and flails around a lot. He also gushes with the girls in our group when they bring up K-Pop celebs (guys) and joins them for shopping when we split up at the mall. We (the guys) know he's gay, the girls most certainly do, and it's pretty much an open secret at th...
BoundariesMy wife [25F] and I [31M] bought a house together about six months ago. This is our first time living together. Our house is an old American house that has been reformed many times. As a consequence of this, it has a silly layout where there are two bathrooms right next to each other that share the same wall. When we pulled the trigger on buying it, we made an agreement that I'd take the bathr...
OtherI (34m) served as a Captain in the Marine Corps. I have left the service, and right now I am doing an MBA. One of my cla*smates (31F), who we'll call "J", is very gentle, very soft-spoken and una*suming. J and I were working together on a case study once, and I started opening up to her about my military service and all the lessons that I've learnt from the Corps. J enthusiastically told me "t...
RelationshipMy guy friend, "Tom," has been one of my best friends since college. We're in our mid 20's now and are both currently in committed relationships with long term partners. I have never had feelings for Tom nor has he ever had feelings for me. Since college, Tom has been a huge watch fanatic. Two months ago, he was showing me this stunning vintage watch and made an off-handed comment about how he ...
WorkI’m an atheist who works in an international company in a very busy city. I have a lot of coworkers who come from a certain religious background that requires them to pray multiple times a day. I would say 90% of my coworkers share this faith and maybe 70-80% of them take the time out to go pray everyday. They get to leave the office 2 or 3 times in a day for 10 mins a piece for prayer and t...
