OtherMy friend AJ (25M) and I are good friends. We've gone to high school together. Recently he met this girl "Megan" (18F) who just graduated high school last June. I was with AJ when he met her at the climbing gym and since then they've started going on dates and getting really intimately involved. I personally think this is a bit creepy because despite her being 18, she JUST graduated high schoo...
OtherI (19M) recently had a drunk driver crash 60mph onto my property and into my house. When I got home after an 20 hour shift I was shocked when I heard a huge crash coming from my kitchen. I ran into the kitchen soon after to see a destroyed wall and a woman after 911 was called and the woman was taken I got word back that she didn’t make it. Although I was devastated for the woman I was more wo...
OtherI love cats, but I raise show birds, mainly purebred pigeons, which are my livelihood. I own a house with a fully fenced and covered yard (like a giant open-air bird cage) where I let my birds fly during the day. My new neighbor, Tom, has a cat that has repeatedly found a way into my enclosure and has k**led two of my award-winning birds by playing with them. I warned Tom, but he dismissed ...

RelationshipSo, here’s the situation. My husband (let’s call him Dave) is an amazing cook, and he recently decided to try his hand at baking a cheesecake from scratch. He’s been super excited about it, and I could see how proud he was when he pulled it out of the oven. It looked and smelled incredible! The plan was for him to take it to a gathering we were attending that weekend, but he put it in the f...
RelationshipA few weeks ago, my friends and I were hanging out and took a bunch of pictures together at our friends 19th birthday celebration and the girl whose birthday it was posted the pictures on her Instagram and everything looked fine originally, but later when I got home my boyfriend was p**sed off for some reason and when I asked him he brought up the pictures and showed me it zoomed in where you coul...

OtherI live in a large multi-cultural city. I went to a bar the other day with my friend and I was discussing an area I'd looked at moving too. He said he wasn't comfortable living in an area where "people don't share my cultural values or look like me". I queried this and was told "for example I wouldn't live in X area of the city, because people have big beards" I replied "oh so you mean hipsters...
OtherMy son Nick finally came back from the psych ward. His doctor said he was close to severe burnout. The whole situation brought back terrible memories of his mother's past behavior, as his 'breakdown' act was just like her playbook; he left the kids, which is what he always accused me of doing. While he was gone, the kids seemed happier. There was no stress over food, homework, ch**es, or anythi...

We've generally had a good relationship and he previously thought that he was infertile, now I don't know if it was medically told to him or som**hing else but that's just what he had told me. So it was a surprise when I got pr****nt and had our daughter. He was shocked too but he accepted her nonetheless as we've always...
