Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/legaladvice TITLE: What can I do legally to restore water to my condominium!? POST: Hi, I live in SE Michigan in a condominium complex. Our water was shut off due to non-payment. (we recieved no notice) and we had to pay all that was due ($1500) We payed this yesterday at 2, they said the water would be turned on immediately. It wasn't. It's now the next day. The lady in our assosciation keeps insisting that the water meter is in another condo. Which we can't access because the person living there is never there (it's being rented) Now we're stuck with no water, no shower, no teeth brushing, no toilets, and no food for certain meals.... Please help us... What can we do? We called the police and they say that we can file a civil report for the lady not doing her job... TL;DR: . Assistant:
Water is shut off in our condo, we pay money, we don't get water back due to meter being in another persons house

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/relationship_advice TITLE: Roommate accuses me of stealing. POST: We're both 19f, been living together for 6 months. We were friends at the beginning, always borrowing each others things. We'd always ask first though. Then we went through an awkward faze of not talking. We got over that. During that period though, she would tweet things that I felt were obviously related to me. For example she tweeted "I smell a theif" and then a day later all her food from the kitchen was stored in her room. I have NEVER touched any of her food...ever! And now she'll ask me "hey..do you have my black shirt with the lace.." ex..and I wont have it because I never took it but she'll act like she doesn't believe me. And then she'll tweet.."I strongly dislike people who take my stuff without asking." So I texted her just being like.."Hey, I hope you don't think im holding out on you. I have given all your clothing back that I've borrowed, and I haven't taken anything without asking. I just don't want you thinking im lying to you!" and all she responded was.."lol nah its all good. it will probably show up somewhere. " So I don't know where to go from here. I was then like.."Okay, well I have 5 and I dont where 2 of them anymore, so if you need one you can have one! :)" and she was like.."lol ok." So this is so awkward for me, and I know she's telling her friends its me. I don't know where to go from here. Or if there is anything else I can do. TL;DR: . Assistant:
haven't taken any of my roommates things, yet she hints very strongly that it's me. Tried confronting her about it in a nice way but she just basically ignored me. Not sure where to go from here.

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/relationships TITLE: Me [26 F] with my boyfriend [27] of two years, I saw a text, asked him about it, text is now gone. POST: Maybe five or six weeks ago, I was sitting with my boyfriend as he was on his phone. I can't remember why, but at one point he went to his texts and gave it a big scroll back (I didn't see how far). As it came to a stop, a text from "Diane" saying "Fo sho" caught my eye. I don't know that name, but I didn't really think anything of it, as my boyfriend works freelance and talks to a lot of people, most of whose names I don't know. Over the next few weeks, I found myself occasionally wondering who Diane was. I didn't want to make my boyfriend feel accused, and I trust him, but after a while I figured what's the harm in asking. I'll ask, he'll tell me she's one of his students' moms or something, and all will be fine. So last night after dinner, we were hanging out and I said as casually and not accusing a way as possible, "hey, I know this is silly and I'm sorry for worrying about something so meaningless, but can you tell me who Diane is? I saw a text from someone by that name while you were on your phone a few weeks ago." He had no idea what I was talking about. Doesn't know any Diane. He pulled out his phone, went to his texts, and searched for "Diane" and the words "fo sho." Zero results. He scrolled back to almost a year, no Diane. He said he was sorry he didn't have an answer but that he hasn't deleted any of his texts. He took me in his arms and promised me he has never lied to me. So I guess either he's lying, or I didn't see that text, right? I'm sort of desperate for a third possibility. We've had a wonderful relationship, I have no reason to suspect him of anything. At the same time, I really value my sanity. The idea that I so firmly grasped onto something that wasn't even there is almost more alarming that the thought of him lying to me. How should I handle this?? TL;DR: . Assistant:
Saw a text from a girl on bf's phone, asked him about it a month later, it's no longer in his phone and he says he didn't delete anything. Need advise.

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/relationships TITLE: Is our sex life to far gone to save? (29f) (26m) POST: My husband and I have been married for four years. Our sex life has never been great, even in the honeymoon stages of our marriage. I would ask him things he liked and he was just so vanilla but whatever. I'd go on to tell him things I like (Im really into role playing and bdsm) but he'd always dismiss it and make jokes about it. Throughout our marriage he'd go on to say things like " I don't like going down on women, I don't find it attractive" make fun of my fantasies, call me fat, poke at my stomach, call me a starfish cause all I do is lay down while having sex. But everytime I tried to get better at other positions and want to practice he'd get frustrated cause I suck at sex.. I'm at the point where I feel really insecure to even have sex with him. Plus I'm just not turned on by him and the person he became, if that makes any sense. It's been two months since we've had sex and every time he attempts to try anything it's just to get a blow job. Our we too far gone to save? TL;DR: . Assistant:

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/relationships TITLE: I [M22] wasn't invited to a Fourth of July party. POST: I just graduated from college, and in September, I will be moving several state away to begin working. I had originally planned to stay local, and signed a lease with an acquaintance for the year. I then received a job offer I couldn't refuse, and got out of the lease. The landlord was incredibly understanding, but it has left bad blood between my would-be roommate and I, despite the fact that he will have a two bedroom apartment to himself, because my landlord has not forced me to find a replacement for myself before I'm let out of the lease. Incidentally, he is also hosting a 4th of July party at the apartment where we would have lived together. When we thought we were living together we had spoken briefly about the possibility of doing one (our group of friends always has one in the area), but nothing concrete, and that was a month ago. I had my suspicions that he would host one anyway without inviting me, so it wasn't a surprise when I found out through a mutual friend that that is indeed the case. I don't know what to do. Due to some pretty serious insecurities I developed during high school, I generally refuse to invite myself anywhere, even if it I know it was a mistake (I have missed parties because I wasn't added to a Facebook event by mistake). I don't want to impose when I wasn't invited and risk some kind of scene (though he's not the type to cause a scene), but this could also be my last opportunity to see some people in this group before I move. I don't think I can bring myself to just show up without a formal invite, even if that's the right thing to do (legally speaking I still have a room in the apartment until the end of the month, so I could choose to show up and there's nothing anyone could do, but that's not how I roll). I don't want to make a scene or create drama within the group, but the whole thing feels shitty, and it's bringing out some long-held insecurities. I don't know what to do. TL;DR: . Assistant:
I wasn't invited to a party because the host and I had a falling out, and I feel shitty and bad about myself as a result. I don't know what to do.

It lasted 10 months into the job where the relationship got rough, and we broke up. IT was actually pretty rough, and she started dating a guy right away. It hurt me a lot. I thought like "What a bitch". either way, it has caused me a big depression. I was posting on here like crazy at first but someone told me I needed to calm down, so I haven't been on in 4 months. Since then, I graduated college, and I'm going to a new university (my ex goes to this university) and I would like to meet someone new...but I keep meeting girls, and It's either I'm not interested and they like me, or I like them but they're not interested. I would really like to meet someone when school starts, but all these girls I'm meeting I just don't feel it for, and it's causing me to be depressed again. I don't even know how to meet people anymore. My ex girlfriend hurt me a lot. Like a whole lot, after the break up, she said a lot of really hurtful things, and just hasn't talked to me since. I look okay, and I'm pretty smart, and I like to stay fit, and have a job. Although, I'm still probably a 7/10, My personality is very factual though. How do I get over her? and meet someone new that I feel is worthy of dating? TL;DR: . Assistant:

Basically, the past week to two weeks i have significantly (basically, restarted for more than 15/20minutes) running and other various exercises (squats and abs almost exclusively), ans specifically, the past three days really been working at it. Yesterday when I woke up bilaterally both hamstrings weretight, but i was able to just sit and stretch hands to toes for 5 minutes and they were fine. sore but fine. This morning i woke up and literally fell because my legs woulnd't support the weight. they are still very tender now and it takes me around 5 minutes of straight walking to walk without limping. i've been drinking plenty of water to increase my BMR but i am at a loss to really specifically what to do.

I usually sit right in front of the other guy, and we're always cracking each other up by making (subtle) sexist **jokes.** (It's one of those in-the-moment things) Anyways, I'm out of it, having stayed up the whole night before. The professor is talking about the Presidential elections in a few years, how Hilary could be president, etc. etc. He then asks where we were when we found out that Obama was first elected president. A girl raises her hand and says "I was in the kitchen with my family, we all started cheering", or something like that. I turn around to my friend and whisper discretely, "Of course she would be in the kitchen". Except it's not my friend. He's absent. IT'S THE FUCKING PRESIDENT OF THE WOMEN'S RIGHTS CLUB. She stands up and instantly shouts/announces that she'll be dropping the class because there are certain people in the class who are anti-women, and that she's disgusted that people like me exist. (while staring and pointing at me the whole time, I pretty much wanted to dissolve on the spot) TL;DR: . Assistant:
I made a sexist joke to the president of the women's rights club, who proceeded to call me out in front of the class and storm out, now the whole class + professor thinks I'm against women in general.

Throughout my life I have always had a small group of friends but are good friends. I also spend **a lot** of time on the computer. More than I should but it is how I get enjoyment. I am also my dads only son (take that as you will). I am also the youngest child in my family. Recently he has been getting frustrated with me being on the computer too much and not doing anything with him (parents got divorced a year ago) when i'm with him. So I have realized this and have been trying to do more things with him whenever he wants to. During the summer I been staying up very late playing and talking with friends on the computer (2am-4am) which I didnt think he had a problem with since it was the summer and he never said anything about it. But then when night a couple days ago I ended up staying up until he woke up for work and he wasn't happy..at all. So now he is making me go to sleep around midnight and is thinking about making restrictions for my computer time completely. TL;DR: . Assistant:
Dad not letting me stay up very late in the summer. Not sure if he is holding on too much or if i'm just being immature.

POST: Original story: I was hoping to have a different update than this but here it goes. Backstory of this point in time: I sometimes see my dating interest but since this is the last week of classes, next week being finals week, I have this amount of time to see him and tell how I feel. Well, I haven't been able to run into him yet this week. I hope to run into him, if not then well, I have to wait for him to text me first. Ironic timing, my cell service is dead until I can get more service, which might not be for a while. Awesome. Now here comes the plot twist... Today, there was a guy who is one of my roommate's friends that asked me on a date. For the record...holy mother of god, that was totally not expected. This guy I've only hung out with him 3 times and he's closer to my age (he's 21). He's cool but I'm not sure if he's dating material for me. It's not that he's not attractive, he's attractive in his own way, I don't feel as connected with him as much as the interest. But I wouldn't mind going on date with him for the sake of being single. However, I have to go out of town this weekend so I can't make the date anyway, and now I have no way of telling him that I can't make it. Double awesome. So now what? I'm kind of stuck. This has never happened before. One last thing: The last time I saw my crush was last week before I posted. I was waiting for the bus talking with roommate's friend. The second he says hey how's it going, Que the crush. He kind of butts in on the conversation but not in a rude way. Then Friend leaves after that. My crush asks: who's the guy? I told him that he is a friend. He looked at him with a weird face as friend left then kind of stayed quiet till parting ways. TL;DR: . Assistant:

I've known this girl, Sarah, for a long time - over 5 years now. We're in the same classes and we both do extracurricular activities that keep us busy. We talk often about school, work, and personal stuff. Although we're both kind of shy, I feel like I can trust talking to her about a lot of things I keep everyone else shut out from, and she does the same. I like to think that she has a thing for me, because over the past few months I've developed feelings for her. She's just a really outstanding, mature, all-around beatiful person and we have a lot in common. However, I've never been in a romantic relationship (she's single). My worry is that I might be getting the wrong signals from her - we've been great friends for a long time and I don't want to do anything to risk that. I really need help with how I can approach telling her how I feel about her without endangering our friendship. Please point me in the right direction! TL;DR: . Assistant:

POST: Hi everyone, so this is a bit embarrassing. We started dating almost two years ago. I want to say, I'm used to pretty bad farts. I have lived for three years with a roomie who had lactose intolerance and couldn't give a fuck about it. But her farts smell *worse*. Like, a lot. At first I thought she had eaten something wrong and I was a little too embarrassed to address it, but her farts continued to smell like a dumpster on fire. So after a week or two I told her that I couldn't bear her farts, that I am concerned that she might be sick, that she should see a doc and that she should leave the room when she feels that she has to fart. Her reaction was... a little demeaning, to be honest. She made it pretty clear that she doesn't see a problem with it and that I should leave the room if I have a problem with her farts. As stupid as it sounds, I thought about breaking up with her because I just can't stomage her farts and I am not willing to seek refuge in the bathroom every ~30 minutes because she ripped one. So, has anyone of you some advice? TL;DR: . Assistant:

(X-Post /r/GreatDanes) POST: I have been researching endlessly for almost 6 months before deciding on getting a great dane. I am in the vancouver bc area and have found a selection of breeders within BC Alberta and Washington. Ive contacted many breeders and found a few that I feel comfortable with and are having a litter of puppies ready for june/july We have been looking at a litter of harlequins after seeing them at a local show but am worried by some possible red flags. The litter had 7 puppies, 4 with the traditional spotting and 3 almost fully white. The breeder is waiting to have the ears/eyes and other issues that are common with white danes before commiting to any sort of sale. This seems like a responsible thing to do however, Should I be nervous of these imperfections within the litter? is this any sort of indicator on possible genetic flaws I may be paying for in the future? Any help is much appreciated, and feel free to ask any questions. TL;DR: . Assistant:
Buying a great dane puppy, one is pure white and potentially deaf, does this have any effect on the rest of the litter or reflect the quality of the breeder?

I realized not long ago that I need to let this relationship go. That said, she moved a long way to be with me, and we have a lease together. She still believes in the relationship. Supposedly. I'm not sure how long we can go with almost no-affection either way before she stops believing in it. I'm the only one paying rent and for most things, so I dont want to just leave her homeless. I still do love her, and wish well for her, but I know I cant give her what she needs, and she cant give me what I need.

POST: Just to start off, yes I know I'm only 15, this probably sounds ridiculous. But it's taking up SO much of my mind so... I gotta get it out somehow. Ok, so, there's this guy that I happen to have a huge crush on. Like... huge. My heart hurts for him tbh. We met at school in HPE class during a dance unit, so we've been thrown in pretty close to each other from the start. Slow dancing and all that. Boy, if I could do that again. We've skype called and played various games on steam a few times and we talk on facebook messenger quite a bit, and we make each other laugh heaps, there's never any awkwardness between us. We enjoy each other's company! Yay. Now, here's the real bit: last night, him and I were on a video call late at night, just chilling. It lasted for about three hours but somewhere in the first half hour, his shirt came off. Imagine my surprise/trying to cover myself blushing like an idiot. And he started doing stuff like he got out a sword that he owns (weeeeeeb) and was doing some stereotypical anime poses and stuff, shirtless, and I'm just trying to conceal my face. He played me some stuff on guitar (to which I joked about him serenading me) and just went with it. There was, as per true teenager brain-ness, some good ol' sexual innuendo thrown in there. Now, I have no idea what the hell any of this means. Am I oblivious, is there a tiny possibly that he likes me? Or am I just one of the lads, eternally friendzoned :^( I have no idea what taking your shirt off in front of a chick even means. There was so no reason for it. He was open and relaxed and warm and... yeah. I could go on for years. What do you think reddit? Should I make a move on this boy? TL;DR: . Assistant:

R was a very nice sweet girl, but I knew way before she broke up with me that things were going to end. I even tried breaking up with R first a few months before and we both broke down and I couldn't go through with it. I don't really have any feelings left for her and I think being forced to continue a relationship with someone you don't really have much reason to be with can make a break up easier. It's been about a month now and I've been trying to think of ways to get back out there and find someone for me and I think of the last ex that made me really feel good and that was an ex from about two years ago let's call her D. D was an amazing girl and I tried it with her twice but each time it seemed like she had a problem with having a relationship and wanted to be a fuck buddy but I wasn't into that so we broke up, both times for that reason. I still had fun with her as a friend though and decided to see how she was doing and I looked her up and found out she had just gotten out of a serious shitty relationship herself, we've started hanging out a bit though and I feel like I still have feelings for her.

POST: Last night my boyfriend of about 2 years went out drinking at a bar with some of his friends. Usually I go along with them and have a good time but I was tired and had work early the next morning. He got home at 4:30am and woke me up wanting to tell me about how his night was. I hadn't been sleeping well so I let him go ahead seeing as he was so excited. He told me there was a "cute Swedish girl" at the bar that his single friends wanted to hook up with. He wanted to try out the cold shoulder tactic to see if she really would become more interested in him the more he ignored her, and it seemed to really work. One of the friends left so there was just my boyfriend and one of his friends left. In the end the girl invited them back to a friend's party so they left the bar with her. He told me she was touching his arm and laughing at his jokes, but when he told her he has a girlfriend she started "balling her eyes out". Apparently she just threw a massive tantrum and ran outside (into a huge thunderstorm) and was yelling she didn't think he was that type of guy to lead a girl on and that he was different. After that things got a bit too weird and they left. He said (as a joke) you should be grateful to have me since a girl wanted me so badly she cried. I am a good-looking girl and get hit on all the time at bars but I would never tell him, to spare his feelings and to stay humble. Part of me is absolutely gutted about him shamelessly flirting with this girl and then coming home to brag to me about it. I'm not at all the jealous type but this hit me hard. He explained it just felt good to know he 'still had it' and that it felt good to be wanted, which I can understand I guess. I'm not sure if this was really uncalled for and rude on his part or I'm just overreacting. Can anyone shed some light on this issue for me please?? TL;DR: . Assistant:

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/AskReddit TITLE: Redditors in a relationship: if in a dream you had the opportunity to have sex with someone other than your partner, would you? POST: My thought has always been this: say you and another person could have sex and you are 100% certain no one but you and that person would ever know. Most people who consider themselves faithful would decline the opportunity. Now, say the opportunity presents itself in a dream where you could have sex with another person. Most people who consider themselves faithful would say they would do it, but what's the difference? And please don't tell me you can't control yourself in dreams. Sure, you may not be able to run as fast as want to when you're being chased by a storm, but no one has ever claimed they dreamt they were having sex and they couldn't stop. Fun fact: Blue's Clues taught me how to control my dreams. TL;DR: . Assistant:
I don't see much difference between "cheating" on someone by having sex with another person in a dream and cheating on someone by having sex with another person in real life.

She's had sex since the last time she was tested. I always use protection but I still asked her to get tested about a month and a half into being exclusive. She still hasn't done it. I've been tested after my last sexual relationship and I've even shown her the results. She's in school still and a bit strapped for cash so I've even offered to pay. She's keeps saying she will go but keeps procrastinating. I know things are really hectic for her right now trying to find a new place to rent and finals to study for, but I feel like squeezing in a test isn't unreasonable. I would rather not ask about her sexual past as I tend to get jealous and over think things when I hear about past experiences. So I figured she could just get the test and I could move on. Is it too much for me to demand she does it immediately? TL;DR: . Assistant:

She realized she viewed me as a friend, but I don't view her that way. POST: This was my first relationship, and she is fantastic, we got along together great. Emotionally this is the best relationship she has had. She had a rough week last week and broke up with me on sunday. We didn't have a fallout, was just a very stressful time for her.She said that she felt at this point in her life she was not ready to be in a relationship at all. Heard from a mutual friend (in a caring/motherly type way, wasn't breaking trust for this person to tell me) that it was because she views me as a friend, a great friend. I WANT to be okay with that, but I don't view her that way. I do not want to lose her friendship, but I don't know if I can handle "just" being friends with her. If I try to be friends with her I would probably have the mindset that once she feels she is ready to be in a relationship she will be ready to get back together with me. Not at all saying I should have that mindset, but I don't know what I should do. Besides this I have had a hard week and want to talk to her, have someone I can confide in.

We have started seeing each other every weekend now. Last weekend he invited me back to his place. Before i went in he stopped me and said something like: Look i moved in here with my ex and some of her stuff is still here, i know it's weird. I would feel very awkward in your place. I was quite baffled and we went in. The stuff that was left was a coat in the hallway, a few bits and bots in the bathroom and two frame collages of pictures of her and him and who i guess are her friends and family on the wall. As well as some girly candles and bedsheets. There were no signs of her in the bedroom so i am pretty positive she does not still live there. Right now i am kicking myself for not asking why they were still there where she clearly left everything and why hadn't he moved them? Returned them? Cleared them away? It makes me worry he is still hung up over his ex. I really want my questions answered but I felt at the time it was too rude to ask. I am seeing him again this weekend and I want to ask him about it. I was wondering if anyone had any advise about what i should say and how to bring up the subject. I do not want to seem like I'm worried or attacking him! I have no idea how to bring up the subject other than being blunt or waiting for him to explain.. I know this might be considered a red flag, but he is such a nice guy i want to give him the benefit of the doubt and let him explain before i read into it too much. Thank you for reading TL;DR: .

Hopefully this is the appropriate subreddit for this matter (and if it isn't just tell me where to go!) Today, I found out that I am going to be a father! I'm so looking forward to the new year :) This post is more "me centered", just to let you know. My situation is a little unusual because I am a transgender man (meaning I was born a girl). ...So with that, I have no ability to impregnate my wife (or anyone for that matter). My brother was willing to be a donor for when we felt the time was right. After going through legal details and lots of medical testing, My wife is now 5 weeks pregnant! We are ages 27 & 28, 4 years married (So close to 5!), financially stable, recently moved from our apartment into a house. We are so thrilled to start a family. Late nights and long talks about parenting have brought out lots of details and plans. Of course we talked about my gender identity and what aspects of it could effect our child, Positive and Negative. We feel a bit stuck. (We both agree that being honest to our child is important) I'm just worried about their future. What if I don't explain things right. The facts are that: dad is transgender, doesn't have boy parts (even though he is hairy, sounds like a boy and doesn't have a chest), dad can't have babies... so .... obviously. Along with trying not to confuse my child, I'm concerned for our safety. I am legally male and apart from my close friends, doctors and family, Nobody knows about my transition. So many bad things happen to transgender people, simply because they are trans. I've lived through a hate based attack, and since then I've been terrified of having people finding out. I now live in more accepting city, but I can never be to sure. Any input or advice you might have on the situation is greatly appreciated. Thanks! TL;DR: . Assistant:

Whatever. I was helping display my friends interactive musical sculpture. My point is I was at a nice family event and not just hanging out on the streets of downtown or somewhere more likely to get swindled. I was taking a cigarette break and piddling around on my phone. A guy cursing, looking into his empty pack spots me and asks if he can "buy a couple smokes off me" On average the going rate for an American Spirit is $0.35, $0.50 if someone is feeling generous. I, out of habit, act put off whenever someone tries to bum smokes off me. This is to give them a chance to rescind their offer without me saying "No" outright. It's something I started doing with my friends who are chronic bums so they realize I'm not an endless free cigarette machine. But, the guy offered to buy right? He had his wallet out, right? I busted out two smokes for him which he takes with a thanks me briefly. I'm still kinda absorbed partially in my phone but notice he pauses and then starts to walk away. "I'll be right back with something for you" he says. I guess I figured he might work at one of the booths that have some cool, silly swag for me? But I remembered thinking it was weird he took his wallet out and then didn't give me any money. Maybe he didn't have any single dollar bills? I waited around for quite awhile after. Just lame because I'm generally pretty generous but it's situations like this that make that generosity go into hiding for awhile. TL;DR: . Assistant:

I haven't consolidated yet, so I have loans ranging anywhere from 5% to 7.9%. I work in law and will be making $175k (pre-tax including bonus) my first year (the salary increases lock-step each year). My original plan was to get onto PAYE as a safety net, but aggressively pay down the loans within 4-5 years (focusing on the higher interest rate loans first), while still contributing to a 401K and Roth IRA. I'm wondering, however, whether refinancing is a better call. My credit score is in the mid-700s, so I think I'd be able to obtain a solid rate. I was thinking of going with something like variable over 10 years (given that when the Fed does increase rates, it will be slow and gradual -- plus, I can just refinance to fixed if absolutely needed). Is this a good idea? What rates would this make sense at? I did some quick number crunching, and over a 4-5 year period (assuming the bank allows me to prepay without penalty), it would save me around $12-15k in interest. Moreover, which company is best? For instance, I know SoFi requires that you be admitted to the bar before refinancing, whereas other companies do not. I'm naturally a risk averse person, but if refinancing is objectively the right call, it would hard to pass up. TL;DR: . Assistant:
$190k in debt at 6.6%; $175k salary (pre-tax + bonus; increases every year). Worth it to refinance? If so, where?

Start of this year I figured I'd try and turn over a new leaf, had 2 girls I thought were interested. Went on a couple dates with 1, she seemed very interested then randomly she just stopped talking to me. The other also seemed interested, got her number and she just never replied.

Over the past week or so my SO of 6 months has been acting pretty out of the norm with me... We normally always say goodnight before bed and say we love each other but this past week it just hasn't really happened, I've said it but it's not been reciprocated at all. On top of this there's been this guy she's been talking to [26M] who she says used to be nice but then got weird and sends her nudes all the time but she has never told him to leave her alone. As well as that, she doesn't like being known as my girlfriend or that I'm her boyfriend even though we do all the stuff, spend time together, go on dates etc. But she changes so much around our friends, and this has not just been recently this has been since we started speaking to each other. This comes then today, she was at my house and she tried to initiate sex, after messaging the guy, I said no because I thought something had happened in the messages but she insists all the time that he's the only one being weird. Shortly after I apologised because I didn't want it to seem like I didn't want her and then she broke down crying saying that it was because she was gonna miss me a lot when she went to uni, but the thing is that she's never done anything like it before, whenever I've been upset she's always been comforting and said that we'd still see each other, so that prompted me to think further that something had been said in the messages and she'd acknowledged that I realised. She's now at home and flaming me for apologising and wanting a reason to initiate it, when before she did, nothing was going on, I'd went to get us a drink and we'd actually had sex about 2 hours before and both gotten off. I'm really confused about what's going on, please help. TL;DR: . Assistant:

Reddit, what seemingly small things makes you instantly irrational? POST: I've been in love with photography since I was 12, went to school for it, and was a professional for a number of years before I decided to quit to better my quality of life (stopped taking photos for myself + only took photos for money = was miserable). I've been working as a creative director, specializing in video, for a corporation the past 8 months. Our company invites several hundred employees from across the country to our corporate headquarters for a yearly meeting and holiday party, at which time every employee get's a new bio photo. There's also a massive amount of photos taken at the party, and they usually hire a photographer for this. I had heard that a photographer hadn't been hired yet and asked my boss if the higher ups were expecting me to do the photos. I also mentioned that I really did not want to be responsible for this. Today I received an email chain where my boss basically suggested that I take the photos and that I could enjoy the party AND take hundreds of portraits and event photos. I was instantly furious and had to leave for an hour. I know my boss isn't aware of the amount of work something like this involves and probably thought it would just be easier to use me instead of hiring a photographer. Normally I'm a very balanced and understanding person, but anything involving a misunderstanding of photography sends me into a blind rage and all I can do is leave and cool down for a while.

My girlfriend has been in a similar situation and until recently was also seeking new opportunities. We're both based in London but were considering job opportunities in Dublin. Unfortunately her circumstances recently changed and she now needs to stay in London as she needs to help her family which is totally understandable and she also got a promotion at work. I've been applying for new jobs in London for months but have been getting hardly any responses. Last week I decided to send off 2 final applications for roles in Dublin and have successfully made it to a final stage interview with one of the leading tech/social companies - an opportunity that I don't believe comes around all that often. My girlfriend is absolutely amazing and she knows how ambitious I am and has said that she'd definitely want to give it a try if I was to go there but I'm worried that I may be being selfish or this could end up with me loosing her? Thankfully Dublin isn't too far and I'd plan to come back every few weekends and also fly her out every now and again too but I'm still slightly worried. If this was for any other company then it wouldn't even cross my mind but this opportunity could open up so many doors in the future as well as travel/relocation opportunities that I'm not sure if I should pass it up.

He was using my computer earlier in the night to go on facebook and he fell asleep with his account still open.--- Recently I had a hard breakup with someone that meant everything to me. She was very conflicted about ending things and always stayed vague and nebulous about her reasons. The most solid reason she said she couldn't be with me was because of our difference in faith, or rather my lack of faith in contrast to her faith. That I would bring her down in her faith and draw her away from God. I supported her completely in whatever she believed and I made a point not to pester her about it or make any objection/arguments against her faith. Anyway, there always seemed to be something in the way of her expressing her feelings for me completely. ---back to me having access to my friends facebook account... I was curious and I looked at some of the messages between my friend and my ex-girlfriend. I searched the whole of 12,000 messages between them for my name and it turns out that I was a common conversation topic between the two of them. Specifically, my friend telling her that I was wrong for her and that my feelings for her were not authentic. He also made a point to tell her whenever she mentioned her feelings for me that she didn't have any real feelings for me and that she should brush them off and try to create a distance between herself and I. I did all of this while he was sleeping not a few feet away from me in my bed. I didn't fall asleep until 8 something AM and I haven't mentioned it to him at all yet.

I know that he doesn't like it, but we are very serious with each other and he's able to look past that. I am making an effort to change that and be more aware of our needs. However, he accues me of not being sexually attracted to him because I'm not aroused whenever I see him. He tells me that he is aroused whenever he sees me and probably expects me to do so in return. I'm not sure how to respond to that. But I told him that I am turned on a bit differently - by his touch in private. For example, I can't be turned on in a public setting because I'm not comfortable. This is how I truly feel. He's a great person, we have tons of fun together and we enjoy cuddling very much. Whenever we do have sex once in awhile, we have a great time.

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/Advice TITLE: I need advice with the corner I feel like my wife is backing me into POST: My wife and I have been married for a little over a year and we've been together for about 6 years. In the past two years, I've gotten a much better job, worked my ass off, been promoted, and we've been able to enhance our lifestyle as a result. My wife has in the last two years worked a dead end job that she claims to hate. She was recently promoted (big promotion) so we got her the new car she wanted. Now she wants to go back to school. Because she's unhappy with her career, she wants to go back to school to get a masters degree. Ultimately she wants to be a city planner or a city manager. However, in order for her to do this, we have to make some changes in our lifestyle. Things like: live in a much cheaper place, sell things we don't need to drum of some cash, start biking/public trans, etc. Tonight she asked me if I'd consider selling my car (she can't/won't learn to drive stick) and cut back on our expenses so she can do this. I don't really want to budge on this and here's why: She isn't going to make more money. In my mind, if spending all this money on a better degree doesn't net you anything (aside from maybe greater job satisfaction), it's not worth it. We can't afford to have a family now, so things aren't going to get any better. I don't want to sell my car. I've been working my ass off to get where I am and I don't want to compromise on something that I really love (driving) so that we can afford to have her go back to school. She occasionally says things like "I want to run a bed and breakfast" which makes me feel like she doesn't know what she wants to do and this will just lead to more dissatisfaction. I brought up the financials and she got pissed off because she felt I was being selfish because I was focusing on the money. It quickly escalated into a yelling/pissing contest and got us no where. Basically, I'm lost. I don't know what to do or how to handle this situation. Please help. TL;DR: . Assistant:
Wife wants to go back to school to get a similar-paying job and is asking for us to compromise on things in order for her to be able to.

Now I keep looking at his phone and invading his privacy out of insecurity. What do I do? Help! NSFW POST: Back story: we have been dating for 2 years. About a year and a half into our relationship I was checking his internet history just to find an old website with a recipe I made for dinner before. I usually don't mind my boyfriend watching porn. It's completely unrealistic to think guys don't fap. But I found out he had been messaging the girls on the subreddit complimenting them. I flipped out naturally because that was crossing the line. He said he was addicted to porn. He went to talk to a therapist who said he didn't need to be treated. I felt betrayed but still forgave him. Fast forward 6 months: I find myself constantly needing to check his phone and computer to see if he watches it still or messages girls. I feel more insecure than ever. He caught me looking on his phone history. I was honest and told him that I was looking to see if he still is watching porn in random moments like he used to. What do I do? I don't like being like this. I want to trust him. I'm scared he is going to keep on doing it behind my back. Am I overreacting? TL;DR: . Assistant:

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/AskReddit TITLE: AskReddit, what advice do you have for a sixteen-year old who just decided to get his shit together and actually try at school/life? POST: Background: I mentor a young man who has made some pretty lazy life decisions in the past. He dropped out of three courses during his sophomore year, and held an incredible 1.5 GPA. He's a smart kid, but kept telling me that he was "lazy" (as if it was a badge of honor). He comes from a low-income household, and so one day I just straight-up asked him: "How are you going to provide for your future family? How are you going to take care of your mom when she becomes too old to take care of herself?" After all, working at fucking McDonalds does not pay the bills, right? That conversation sort of woke him up, and he's really been making an effort to turn his life around and apply himself. He's registered for an online high school (rather than face a third new high school -- his family moves a lot), and wants to get into college. Class doesn't start for a few weeks, so I'm trying to teach him time management, planning ahead, making goals, etc. The problem is, he's been such a slack-ass for so incredibly goddamn long that he doesn't even know how to motivate himself. He has aspirations, but he doesn't know how to carry them through without falling back on his old ways. For instance: he wanted to learn how to type, and started to train himself via a website. I left him for ten minutes, and he was already looking at lolcats or some shit. I really think he wants to do better, but he's currently defeating himself. Anyway, I was hoping some of you might have some perspective to offer. What should his next steps be? What would you do? Are there any college admissions people out there that might have some suggestions for him? TL;DR: . Assistant:
Slacker student is trying to turn life around, too stuck in lazy habits to make the change easy. Need advice on how to change, how to get into college, etc.

POST: I have been dating/seeing this fellow for a couple of months. I was somewhat pursuing him, but have given up on him after the relationship hasn't progressed forward much. He is very private and seems to keep me separate from his life. I haven't pushed it, but started backing away when I noticed that I was pursuing him. A month ago, I met someone that I really like and would enjoy seeing him more. The relationship with the new guy isn't exclusive, but I just realized that I am done with the other guy. My question is: How do I break him off without losing our friendship?

POST: My boyfriend and I have lived together for about two years and while I enjoy living with him I wonder whether he would be a good long term partner. The main issue is that he spends a lot of his time playing video games and redditing (and other interneting), which I find hard to respect. He is supposed to be doing school work by distance but it is taking him much longer than it should (1.5 years so far) because he doesn't focus on it. I think he might have actually given up on it at this point. When I ask him about it he says I'm nagging so I have stopped saying anything. He has money from his education fund so we can split the bills and that isn't an issue. My concern is for his lack of follow-through and excessive video game playing. I wonder whether this will continue to be an issue or if it's just that the distance courses are not very motivating. I feel that it's not my responsibility to push him to do his school work. I've been thinking that he might not be a good long term partner. I've been considering it for six months but flip flop between wanting to break up and wanting to push things with him some more. Our relationship has mostly been great so far and he has some very good qualities. I really like that he is easygoing and can quickly pick up what I'm feeling. There are a lot of positive things in our relationship. I would appreciate any advice on how to handle this. I'm unsure if this is a "deal breaker" for me or not. How do you decide? TL;DR: .

POST: I have tried the obvious: eye contact, coy smile, dressing nicely. I make jokes and laugh at jokes. I am female and not unattractive. I'm confident sometimes but shy and tastefully flirtatious for the most part. Truthfully, I get plenty of attention from men at parties and social gatherings. But of course the one guy who I have an interest in doesn't respond to anything I do. This guy is sort of shy, and I think he enjoys the eye contact and half smiles we send each other, but I want to take it further without seeming too forward. In other words, I want to flirt enough to provoke him to make a move. So what should I try, Reddit? I am not a slut, and getting him drunk won't work (we have been drunk together before... didn't help). I prefer to be reserved and playful... but how do you get men to notice that? TL;DR: .

POST: As the title says, I'm supposed to graduate with a degree in Economics after this semester, but as I transferred to this University 2 years ago, I am supposed to have 60 institutional credits. Due to me being incompetent and missing the fact that I was supposed to take an extra credit this semester, I will only have 59/60. I have started applying for jobs already, but I have a mediocre GPA and am currently trying to expand my repertoire to make myself more marketable (I started taking some computer science classes this semester). Now I have two options. 1, I could probably get into a 1 credit drum class and fulfill my requirement for this semester. 2, I can wait another semester and take another full load (taking 18 now so I would probably do the same next semester) and hopefully boost my GPA and would have much more math and computer science under my belt for graduation.

POST: Like the title says, I'm 23. I look my age. I recently decided to get back into tennis since I stopped playing throughout college and wanted to introduce some sort of athletic activity into my life while avoiding my least favorite things in the whole world: getting fat and running. Everyone on my league team is very nice, although I do seem to be the youngest. (Ages range from 27 - 40s.) That's fine and no one has made comments. The past couple weeks we've had matches against other teams that seem to consist of older women (40s - 60s). At each of these matches, one of my opponents has, at some point, asked: "Are you even 18?!" I don't really understand why they're saying this - to discredit me if me and my partner are winning? - but they're often very persistent. Not persistent enough to question my presence on the team, but enough to make me uncomfortable with their faux-joking. Even though it makes me uncomfortable in the moment, this isn't hovering over me or haunting my dreams. I just need some suggestions on how to shut this kind of thing down, especially with some quippy one-liner or something. I wrote the first time off but am now 2 for 2 at matches and so want to be prepared for the next time, since I'm assuming there will be one. Last time it happened, I tried to ask if they wanted to see my birth certificate but I don't think they really heard me. Awkward. TL;DR: . Assistant:
Older women tennis opponents keep accusing me of not being 18 even though I am a full-blown grown-up woman with the student debt to prove it? Pretty irritating and need some clever comebacks to shut them down.

POST: I'm with my girlfriend for 10 months and we are very happy together. I love her and can't imagine myself with another person. A while ago, she saw some old pictures of me and my ex-girlfriend and became super jealous and very mean to me the whole afternoon. She said she was not jealous. She claimed that she was disappointed that I took my ex-girlfriend's out kayaking, zip-lining, and do all the stuff that she wants to do, but I never took her out, even though I'm from this area, and she has never been here before until we met. But I think she's clearly just jealous. We always go out and do things on the weekends. She complains about me never making any arrangement, and she always takes the initiative to reserve things, book things, plan things. Recently she brought up the topic of my ex-girlfriends almost every day, because I have some homemade sex videos and photos with them. They are just good memories, and it's not like I look at them everyday, but I think it'll be fun to watch them and laugh about it when I'm 90. Anyway, she was very upset, so I deleted all the porn videos, and then I put the other photos with my ex-girlfriends in an encrypted disk image on my laptop. This weekend she came across the encrypted disk image while doing some work on my laptop and again became super mad at me.

Everything was perfectly fine but all of a sudden I hear a "BANG BANG" really fucking loud and I was in the pen inside the building and during the loud BANG I heard yelling, then my stomach just dropped I was sure it was gun shots or something. It was extremely loud and had a Pop-ing sound So I droped the shovel and what I was doing and jumped over the walls seprateing the pens then sprinted out the back door onto a trail. After I got out far enough I called my Father warning him not to go the the Agriculture area. After the trail ended at a no trespassing sign I ran through bushes and branches getting scraped up until I reached the clearing where I ran down to the schools office. The first thing they notice is im shaking, sweating, and stuttering like a motherfucker and asked what happend. I reported the incident and someone went up to check it out. Turns out what happend was one of the older boys that were up there was angry and he has some issues so he grabed a pig cane and smashed it against the building twice breaking it. It takes alot of force to break one of those or even dent a building which lead me to belive it was a gun shot. But I don't know I just feel like a bit of a coward and a idiot all at the same time and feel kinda bad about myself a little bit. The boys both aplogized to me but i still feel like a jack ass.

The first week has been hard but I got over it. Problem is that from time to time I still think about it and it really bums me out. Tonight, I randomly started thinking about the offer of having sex that she gave me 5 days ago to which I declined. I think it was a good decision for the both of us but I might have been a little harsh by saying "it would be weird to hook up again". In some twisted way, I might have said that to convince myself I'm over her.

However, one of my bridesmaids [25/F] has been really out of the loop (not answering calls/texts/emails/fb messages). This was also the case when I was trying to ask her to be a bridesmaid (a process which took months to get in touch with her!). My fiancé and I recently moved to another state, so most of our people from our wedding party are from out of town (which I understand limits what they can do to help); however, all my bridal party have gotten matching dresses (of different shades of blue) and she still hasn't even responded to any of their messages either. She always comes up with lame excuses (her phone broke/ she got a new computer- which SHE WOULD STILL BE ABLE TO CHECK FB MESSAGES AND EMAILS!). She has been a very close friend since we were young (since 11 years old!). I love her to death and we have always had the kind of relationship were we don't need to talk or hang out every weekend to be able to maintain our friendship (we have always been there for any crisis and told each other everything even after months of not talking). I feel like she is really dropping the ball on this tough… It's not like I'm asking her to help with ANY PREPARATIONS for the wedding, just get ANY dress that is blue... I would even help financially but she doesn't respond to ANYTHING. I have thought about asking her to step down because I find it really rude of her BUT HOW if I can't even get in touch with her?!

The break up was something that I had wanted. I got focused on all the little things she did that annoyed me. I found myself making excuses to not be with her all the time. I found myself just stressed and annoyed when I was near her and I didn't feel attracted to her at all. I didn't find myself happy with her towards the end. All those feelings had been coming to the surface over the last month and a half. I tried my hardest to work through it, to get past it, but I just couldn't. The hard part was that before this past month and a half, she and I had discussed getting engaged and getting married. We are both full-time university students, however, in the fall I will be transferring to a different university to pursue my bachelor's and try to get into medical school. When I started getting so annoyed and unhappy with her, I told her that I wanted to hold off on getting engaged. That strained our relationship a lot because how were we going to make it work being at different universities? Finally, she brought it up and we discussed it last night. We both decided it would be easier to just end the relationship now. It was really hard - for both of us. I know that this is what I wanted - and it's probably for the best - but deep down, I still care a lot about her and it was hard to see her cry that much and know that I let her down. I keep getting this feeling that she is just mad at me and hates me because this isn't exactly what she wanted. She dreamed of marrying me and so did her parents. It is just hard to have someone be such an important part of your life and then suddenly, after a short conversation, they aren't there anymore. I am just having some difficulty getting over it. I know it's only been one day, but it has been difficult knowing that this is what I wanted. If it was right, why is it so hard? TL;DR: . Assistant:

Would it be legal if we did the following? * Still charged for cups * 21+ only * Avoided breaking other, non alcohol-related laws (noise, littering, etc).

We got very serious very quickly and have spent nearly everyday together since (admittedly, it's a little bit much but it's the honeymoon phase and we can't get enough of each other). I don't think I could have dreamt of a better match for me. J's brilliant, creative, confident and unbelievably kind. His humor is clever and nerdy and immature in all of the right ways. He is so thoughtful and amazing at communicating, which is especially important because that is not my best trait. I've never been able to talk to anyone the way I can with him... And I've opened up more with J than I ever thought I would (with anyone). I could go on for pages just gushing about how infatuated I am with him. Needless to say, we're both serious about this... we've said the I-love-you's and started looking for apartments to move in together in June. We're talking about long-term plans and I've already met a huge chunk of his family. It's real. I never would have imagined myself to jump into a relationship this quickly or intensely, but it's really real. And I'm thrilled! I want to yell it from treetops and tell the world... but I'm worried that people might think I'm being silly or naive and rushing into it. I am very close with my family and desperately want to tell them that I love him and how serious we've gotten but I would be really upset if they wrote it off as some sort of tryst. So that leads me to my question: Can I tell my family about my intense, new relationship? Or should I wait it out and bring it up on a more "normal" timeline? TL;DR: . Assistant:
I love my boyfriend after ~6weeks of dating him. The 'pace' of the relationship doesn't bother me but I'm worried my family will write this off if I told them about it now.

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/relationships TITLE: My (22f) fiancé (24) has been searching his ex-fiancé on Facebook a lot. POST: Hey guys So, I(22f) was on my fiancé's (24m) phone because we were at my friends house who he never met and I used his phone to find her through his Facebook and add her for him (his request). We've been together for over a year. Some background information, he was engaged just last year to some girl he claims he didn't really like but felt pressured to marry, but she cheated on him and he left her. So I went to type in my friend's name, but his last three searches popped up in the drop down, and his ex-fiance was the first one. So out of curiosity, I opened his activity log and he has searched her over ten times, the month of January 2016, alone. He told me he had blocked her. I'm not really sure how to feel about it. I know he loves me and we are engaged, but it still makes me insecure. I don't search my exes. Is this something I should ignore or bring up? TL;DR: . Assistant:
My fiancé has been Facebook searching his ex fiancé a lot over the past few months. Should I be bothered?

Basically her and I work at the same place, and I have a job that requires me to walk past her café. I find myself going out of my way to even just catch a 5 second glimpse of her-like, really out of my way. It makes my day even if I just see her for 5 seconds, and on the days we do get to talk it leaves me re-living the conversation multiple times in my head. She always manages to catch my gaze when I look over at the café, and a lot of the times I find her already looking at me when I walk past. The feeling of excitement and nervousness I get whenever I am near her makes me go crazy! We have had a few conversations on Facebook and I feel like I can talk to her for hours. Not really sure how to even approach this situation. I don't want to freak her out by saying I like her, and then ruin a potential friendship. But then I feel like I am going crazy keeping these feelings inside. TL;DR: . Assistant:
I like this girl who works in the same place as I do, had a few conversations, not sure if I should tell her I like her or keep it to myself.

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/relationships TITLE: Me [25 M] with my GF [24 M/F] of 2 years, She doesn't want a baby, but I do POST: About six months into the relationship we discussed having a baby in the future. She didn't want any, and I wanted at least one, but she gave in and said that she will carry one, or else I would have ended the relationship. So now we are living together after two years, and the topic comes up again. However this time, she expresses that she doesn't remember saying that, and that she doesn't want a baby. *I suspect that she just said that before because she was going through a hard time and just wanted to stall and have someone to depend on.* We discussed options like surrogate and adoption (She's ok with these), but I don't trust anyone enough to be the surrogate mother, and I am not really feeling it for adoption. I know it's a bit selfish to have a biological child, but I don't want to regret it later in life. She says that she doesn't want to ruin her body, *but I have a feeling it's more than that because every time kids are around, she clamors about how annoying they are or such a hassle.* We are about to get a new apartment together in less than a month, and I'm trying to figure out what to do. TL;DR: . Assistant:
GF does not want a baby, but I want at least one. Surrogate is an option, but I don't trust anyone enough. The GF expresses a disliking towards other children in public places.

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/relationships TITLE: I [18F] am terrified that my depression and paranoia issues are destroying my relationship with my boyfriend [19M] of a few months POST: First things first: My boyfriend and I dated about two years ago and it ended roughly. I had made a big mistake that I still regret to this day, but we have moved past that. It should also be noted that we are currently in a long distance relationship (As we were before), but the distance will be over in a year when I move for post-secondary. I have suffered from clinical depression and anxiety/paranoia issues since I was a child due to some traumatic experiences. Because of this, I've always been very prone to stress and, in turn, chronic grumpiness and anxiety. This bleeds into my relationship with my boyfriend since we talk on a daily basis, and I have various concerns. 1. First of all, I'm always paranoid that he'll find someone better than me since we are apart. My self esteem definitely isn't the greatest, and I'm not proud of that fact. He is a very handsome man and I'm convinced he would have no problems finding another girl. I really, really want to trust him with everything I have, but I feel as though my self esteem gets in the way of that. I am grateful for him, but I feel as though he could do better. I express these concerns to him, and he is very kind and caring about it almost every single time, which will help temporarily, but the paranoia always returns. 1. Because I'm so paranoid and easy to piss off I'm definitely afraid that I'll only push him away. It's a vicious cycle I'm not sure how to break. I really care about him and I've never felt so strongly about someone before, and losing him because I couldn't deal with myself would be pretty depressing. He reassures me that he "isn't going anywhere" anytime it's brought up, but it's almost like it isn't enough. I guess I'm just not sure how to deal, reddit. TL;DR: . Assistant:
I'm the paranoid girlfriend who isn't sure how to deal with self esteem issues and thinks my boyfriend deserves better than me.

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/relationships TITLE: I [31/f] think i need to break up with the dude [29/m] i'm "casually" dating POST: I started "casually" seeing this guy, he warned me up front that he was going through the break up of a 4 year long marriage and it had only been a few months. Since he didn't really seem like someone I could see "long term" possibilities with I went with it anyways - he's cool and fun and that's all I wanted anyways. No rushin'. Since then I've developed feelings for him and he has been so great and cool about it all. He talks about me to his friends, we hang out with each others friends. Focus on not just having sloppy drunk sex, etc. Not really the stuff "casual" is made of. He has started counselling and is focusing on himself and doing everything right, that he should be at this point. I, on the other hand, am feeling like it's a really bad time to be falling for him. I don't wanna put pressure on him to have to take care of my feelings right now - I think it will just lead to me getting hurt. Not to mention getting in the way of where he's trying to go right now. The best thing I can think of is just pulling back and settling into just friends. Genuinely, without any ulterior motives. The problem is I don't know if i'd actually be cool with that - what if we are at a party with friends and he goes home with someone else? I'd be so bummed out. I try hanging out with other dudes too - but I just spend the entire time wishing I was hanging out with the person I actually wanna be making out with. Is there a way of being like "hey call me as soon as you are over being heart broken" ? Put him in my phone as "call him in 2017" ? Fake a "just friends" friendship till I make it (I'm sure i will - it's not been that long that I've had these feelings and I'll be fine) ? TL;DR: . Assistant:
Fell for the dude I was supposed to be just casually hooking up with. How do i say "hey call me when you aren't all messed up from your wife leaving you"?

POST: I don't care for their store much to begin with but due to location and selection I stop by once or twice month. I went looking for some hardware but didn't end up finding what I wanted. Took to browsing the aisles because I didn't want to have made a wasted trip. $3 for a pair of training mitts/gloves (originally $26). I also spot a similar set of youth/adult boxing gloves for the same price. I double check the clearance tags to make sure I have the right items for the sale and take both boxes to check-out. This is where the fun begins. Training mitts ring up no problem but when she rings up the gloves the total jumps to $28 instead of $6. I point this out and they call back a price check. Comes back over the radio that the price rung up is the correct price. I decline to buy the full priced gloves and just buy the mitts. After I finish my purchase I return to the aisle to double check the sale tags and they've been removed. I was pissed at this point but really, what could I do? Walked out with my purchase got a good deal and was cheated out of another. TL;DR: . Assistant:
discounted item rang up full price, sale tag removed from shelf before having chance to verify myself. Fuck you K-mart.

POST: Throwaway, and some obfuscated details, just in case... So for a while, I've had a massive crush on a girl from school. She's an undergrad; I just finished my graduate degree - thus, the age difference. She's charming, funny, wonderful, stunningly beautiful... all in all, a spectacular catch. Like an idiot, I waited too long to ask her out. I do know she's really busy, and I kind of assumed she had a boyfriend, but that's not really an excuse. I'm leaving the area for work soon, and figured I'd be wondering forever if I didn't ask her out. To my surprise, she said yes... We had an *amazing* time. Hands down the best first date I've ever been on. We went out all dressed up to a holiday event, then came back to her place and watched a movie, talked, joked, played a couple games, watched another movie. She fell asleep on my shoulder. Each time we kissed, her face would light up in this cute smile that just melted me... Same thing when I kissed her forehead - cute smile of complete satisfaction. She's gone home for break, and won't be back until after I've left the area. I'm moving about 4 hours away, give or take... but I'll be working full time, which would mean I'd only be able to see her on the weekends. I would happily drive that distance every week if I could keep seeing her. It's been a *long* time since I felt that kind of instant connection with someone. What to do? TL;DR: . Assistant:
Amazing date with a perfect woman; she's out of town, I'm moving; *really* want to see her again. And again. And again.

Or not. Do whatever you want- who the hell am I to tell you what to do Long story short dated someone for over a year and had a great time. I am 30 M and she is 29F. When I turned 30 I kind of freaked out (is this the girl I am going to marry? Everyone else is getting married? Is she expecting that I get married? Is this the last girl I will ever kiss? Sleep with?) The advice I got from everyone was things like "well you would know if you loved her/ If you loved her you wouldn't even think of these things and you would know." I don't think I'm that kind of guy- I have a hard time making decisions and I must admit that I am not in touch with my feels a lot of the time. Breakup was in September and it is now July. I work in finance and the hours suck and Im always tired and thats one of the reasons I broke it off but I have thought about her basically every day- but i am afraid that (1) Maybe she won't take me back and(2) Maybe we aren't going to work out and i will break her heart again, and i really really do not want to hurt her. Long story short I think about her when I hear romantic music (F&^& you Michael Buble!) and I have recently started to look at old pics of us when times were good. I feel like because my life kind of sucks right now for other reasons I am romanticizing our past relationship and I am searching for the last thing that made me happy. I have slept/kissed others and I still think about her. I really don't have an interest in getting to know another girl/woman as I just don't…..care I fear that if I keep waiting and she may find someone and I will have missed my chance and I am not trying to be an a**hole and deny her being happy but I feel like I could be happy and she could be happy with me if I just get my f**king thoughts and shit together Help me Obi Wan Reddit TL;DR: .

POST: Hello everyone, I have been a lurker here for a while and wanted to post my story after going through this horrible time. Background: Met this girl around this time last year. Asked her out on New years day and was in a relationship for 9 months. Just to add this was my first real relationship and the first time I have been in love. She went to uni in September and broke it off with me 1 week into uni. She told me her feelings changed for me a while back but she couldn't tell me in person and that I was 'not the one'. I was and still am heartbroken from it. I know I learnt many things from this relationship but I was honestly not expecting it. I honestly put everything I had into this relationship. Now to where I am now. She came back from uni for the Christmas holidays and I thought I would be ready to meet up 'just as friends'. I was wrong...We played catch up and I asked for another chance (I know I shouldn't have). She turned me down of course and this has just extended my recovery. My problem is I am deeply unhappy with myself and my life right now. I can't help but think I wasn't good enough and that she was too good for me (really she is stunning) and she had a lot of qualities I admired. I can't stop thinking about her, it is driving me crazy. It has made me realise I am not happy with many things outside this relationship and I can honestly say I feel depressed, nothing makes me happy any more. I am a different person and I feel like I am alienating myself from my friends and family. Everything seems to be spiralling down hill and I don't know what to do. This particular time is rough because I know it was when we first started dating and we spent my best New years together last year. I can't stop comparing where I was last year to where I am now. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to ask more questions if that will help. TL;DR: . Assistant:

He is loyal, generous, hard-working, and can be very considerate. However, he comes from an abusive home with an alcoholic father and, I think, as a result he has a few very difficult qualities that as of late are making me reconsider our relationship. He has a lot of conflict-avoiding tendencies, he lies compulsively, and he cannot control his drinking. He also smokes a lot of weed, which I have less of a problem with except that we cannot afford the amount he spends on it. I love him. He has helped me through my own health issues. I want to help him through this. I just don't know how. He has agreed, several times after doing something awful, to go to therapy. He has never followed through, however, insisting he "doesn't have time" or "doesn't need to." Over the course of our relationship we've seen each others' highs and lows. For a while he was able to distance himself from his dysfunctional family and was a much happier person for it. Now his dad (who still drinks heavily but is too weak to be physically abusive) is dying (very slowly) and things have gotten quite bad again. Reddit, what can I do to help my fiancé? I don't want to believe this is abusive lost cause, but I can't get married to someone I can't trust, and right now there is very little trust. TL;DR: . Assistant:

We are currently in different cities for the summer but we'll be in the same city by September (where we both attend school). I'm sure the physical distance between us now hasn't helped, but we visited each other recently and I didn't feel the spark that i used to.

I know he does not want to end things. I feel stuck. I've met someone in this city whose sparked my interest. I feel guilty, but mentally this relationship has felt distant to me for some time.

We had a generally good time. I told them how I didn't know anyone and was just looking for people to hang out with on the weekends. They seemed to take this well and at the end of the night I asked for their numbers. It appeared they were in a hurry so they just said, "look us up on Facebook, our last names are (insert last name)." I didn't mind too much because I wasn't looking for a hookup, just friends. I added them the next day and they both accepted my request. I waited until Sunday to ask them about hanging out again (didn't want to appear too desperate).

POST: Hey Reddit, Weird situation and I'm not sure what to do. Quick backstory, my girlfriend and I have been dating about 4 months and things are going really well. She got out out of a bad relationship where her ex boyfriend cheated on her. As far as she knew it was only with one girl and that's it. They've split up and he's not longer in the picture, we started dating and things are going swimmingly. We're at our "I love yous" stage and have been intimate. Recently I was going through her computer looking for her resume she couldn't find, and I stumbled upon some pictures. They are nudes that were received just around and before the time they would have spit apart. So its possible he was sleeping with more than one girl , or at least messing around with. My question is should I bring this up with her. He's out of the picture and it hardly matters now, but she probably has the right to know that things may have been worse than what she thought.

POST: Me and my girlfriend have been dating for almost 4 years. Basically all of our college career so far and some of her high school. Lately she has been getting worried that we have been dating for so long that we are going to end up moving in and what not (marriage etc) and is afraid that this is happening at too young of an age and because we have been with each other for so long. She said she has never really been single and wanted to experience that. As someone who had a lot of bad relationships in the past (even though I'm 22 I know haha) I liked the stability and our relationship has always been great (in our 4 years we never had any bad arguments). Anyways, I told her that I would give her a few months to figure her stuff out and then we can go from there. I didn't want to do this because I almost never hear of anyone coming back from a break and getting back together but I knew it was going to be worse if we tried to hang on. Has anyone taken a break with a partner and come back together and continued to date?

For those who don't work at jj we get a visit from corporate once about every 4 to 6 weeks. The guys was a little late in coming but we had been preparing for him for the past week. Last night I had the luxury of closing with a new guy and a worker we hired about a month ago. I can usually close the store and get out around 945 with it looking good. Well last night having a new guy and having to do double the work we didn't get out till nearly 1030. I thought it looked good but I would come to find out the next morning that wasn't the case. I go in to pick up my phone charger and the look in the assistant managers eye could kill. I thought he was going to break down and cry. I then find out we got a low 80. Now I don't know what to do. I could have very well just cost everyone a 750$ bonus. TL;DR: . Assistant:
I closed the store and thought it looked good but to find out it was bad and now I may have every manager upset about losing money.

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/tifu TITLE: TIFU by going off-piste whilst skiing POST: So, I'm currently in Finland with my parents on a skiing trip - first time here, can't speak a single word of finnish, let alone understand when it's being spoken. The resort where I'm skiing is pretty boring tbh, maybe 1/3 of slopes are actually open and the ones that are, take maybe 5-10 minutes to reach the bottom (if you're going slowly). As a result of a lack of things to do, I decide it would be great to go off-piste (against my parents, insurers and slope signage's advice). The deep snow is not a problem for me, I can handle most conditions pretty well, **BUT** I often make the rookie error of 'leaping before you look', and found myself stopping just short of a small cliff. In most cases I probably would've tried to land on the snow below the cliffy part, but fallen trees gave me the middle branch and started laughing. So with a cliff on one side and fuck all on the other I try my best to turn around, and go the other way. That went good, I got pointed in the direction I wanted to go and carried on my merry way. I got to a point where I could make it to one of the closed off runs, and nearly got there without any mishaps... *Nearly* I misjudged where the new cliff ended, and went arse over tit into the snow below, with my back stopping just short of one of those, evil fallen trees. Never in my life have I ever been so glad to be on a marked ski run. TL;DR: . Assistant:
I got bored skiing, went off piste, got stuck and almost back flopped onto a tree, and prayed to all the gods to not kill me

POST: My BF makes about 1k after tax each week, while I am a broke college student. I can't work since I'm an international student. He often suggests eating out and our meals usually cost $20-30, tips included (which is one hour of work for him). He always asks for one check and pays for the meal. I always go to his place for the weekend because my dorm room is super small, so we don't cook and just eat out maybe three times over the weekend. I feel bad about letting him pay but I can't afford dinner for two so sometimes I buy him a drink or get movie tickets. I still feel bad about him paying for almost everything so how do I go about this? Should I just let him pay (he doesn't seem to mind at all but it bothers me. I don't want to be a gold-digger)? Please give me some suggestion! He also paid for everything (dinner and drinks) on our first date, even though I said I'd buy him a drink since he already got dinner. He's really nice and I don't want him to do all the work in this relationship. Any comments, advice and suggestion would be appreciated! TL;DR: . Assistant:

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/Dogtraining TITLE: Can a Traumatized Dog be Helped? POST: One year ago, I came home to see a skeleton of a hound dog stumbling all over my pastures. I didn't have anything to catch her with, but I am a sucker for animals in need and tried anyway. It took an hour of walking up and down the same fence before she just collapsed and I "caught" her. We took her to the vet for two broken front paws, but nothing else was wrong with her. She was so scared of everything, the slightest sound made her take off literally shitting herself. A whisper could make her cower in the corner and pee everywhere. My neighbor also told me he'd seen her thrown out of a truck the day before. So I kept her, afraid she would be put down if I took her to anyone else. It's been a year of taking sweetly, lots of food and treats, going on walks, befriending my other dogs, and sitting and petting her for long periods of time. *A year.* She still won't come to anyone but me, and she only started coming to me in the last couple of months, and being very nervous when she does. She's still terrified of noises, movement, and pee's around anyone else. She runs so much to avoid (even though they're not interested) my family and friends that feeding her three times a day still has her looking like a skeleton and sleeps standing up during the day to be ready to bolt again. We had to triple reinforce the fence to keep her in because she continuously rams it to get out in a panic, cutting herself up once in a while, when one of us walks into the yard. She doesn't even make eye contact, and flips out when she bumps into something like a chair. I still don't want her to go elsewhere and risk a bad or no future since I know she is really a sweet and loyal dog under all the mess, but I am moving to start over in a couple of months and want her to come with us and start over, too... Is there anything more I can do for her? :( TL;DR: . Assistant:
Out of all my rescue animals, this dog is the toughest. A year of sweet care later, she is still piss-herself-terrified of anyone, any movement, any sound. What else can I do?

I look in my mirror to make sure I'm clear to merge, and sure enough there's an 18 wheeler in the lane and isn't moving over. I start blowing my horn, but he doesn't even acknowledge me. At this point, I realize the on-ramp is ending and I have about 500 feet until it ends. I slam on the brakes to reach 50 mph (~80 kph), merge lanes as the on-ram is ending. I gain some space between the truck and myself, then move to the left lane and pass him. I look in the rear-view mirror and see the vehicle thats in front of the tractor trailer is going about 5 mph (~8 kph) below the speed limit. The tractor trailer moves into my lane, at which point I slow down to the speed of the vehicle the 18 wheeler was trying to pass. Once I slow down, the tractor trailer turned his blinker to move back into the right lane; I then sped up and the 18 wheeler turned off his blinker. Once it went off, I slowed back down and then the 18 wheeler turned his blinker back on. This went on for a couple of miles, until my exit came up. In retrospect, this definitely wasn't the safest thing to do but road rage got the best of me. And damn, did it feel good. TL;DR: . Assistant:

Throughout this time, he has pretty much done everything to betray me that you can imagine. I've caught him cheating on me with 7 different women. He once dumped me two days after my dad passed away. He's been physically abusive to me on several occasions (which I reported, but nothing was ever done, as he didn't "hurt me enough"). Most recently (and shockingly the final straw) occurred over the last few days. He forgot my birthday (which was at the end of December). On NY eve, he texted me saying he fell asleep, and thats why he ignored me that evening. This AM, he sent me a picture (by mistake) of him and another girl taking a nice selfie together- obviously from last night. He told me that he had been seeing this girl for six months. He had introduced her to his parents as his gf. I begged him for months to have me over for dinner with his parents, but he said no, as I was "a huge bitch who his parents hated". He would fuck her and then come and sleep in my bed. Everything i wanted from him- to be involved with his family, to hold hands, to take pics together, to go on actual dates- he did with her. she is significantly heavier than me- apparently his dick gets hard for anything who is willing to fuck him.

POST: A year ago I had a vague, pipe-dreamy idea for an interesting software project - a way of visually mapping politics in a procedural way. It got buried under the backend of my degree, until recently when I began to develop it as a commercial for-profit product. I am not a programmer in the slightest, but I've got a good idea of how this system might look, feel and function. I will explain more about this, but I'm posting for directions on where to look for people to get involved more than as a pitch. Even though I think this would work as a profitable, commercial product, it shouldn't be. It has to be free and open-source if it's really to meet its potential. I don't need to go through the various items of news that has led to the current climate of outrage against governments, but I will say that this has contributed to my decision to go open-source or nothing. I'm not sure I would be comfortable making money off this project, even though it will take skills, I think these exist in the public domain of willing volunteers. I realise I might end up explaining the whole thing, which is a big job, and I *will* do if necessary in an edit. TL;DR: . Assistant:

Now fear I have stuffed up this chance at a fresh start. POST: Throwaway for obvious reasons. I work in financial services (think investment). I'm a young, high achiever. I recently moved to one of the top firms following a 2 month 'holiday' where I left my old town and got clean off cocaine. Business in my old town ran on coke, absolutely everyone was doing it, and I was doing it daily. It was very hard to come off of it but I went home to my home town and spent some time with friends and family and got clean. I moved to my new posting about 2 weeks ago and all was going well. Until the Christmas Party. After I was already quite boozed up someone brought out a bunch of coke. Everyone was doing it and I stupidly partook. When I am on cocaine I don't behave like me at all. Long story short I was a mess and went home with one of the VPs. Now I'm mortified and feel totally hopeless not only about my new company (which was meant to represent a fresh start for me), but about the future and also about facing work after this. Has anyone been through anything similar? I am an idiot and don't know how to deal with this. TL;DR: . Assistant:

I come to this sub in the hopes that i could get some help with my 1 year old Pitbull mix. Otis is a very friendly and loving dog. He gets along just fine with people and random people on the street during walks. At my old house he had a 7 year old chihuahua as a friend and for the most part they got along just fine. We would have the occasional problem with Otis being too big to play with the little chihuahua. We moved to a new home this month so Otis had a lot of new things to get used to. One main thing is that now he has neighbor dogs to deal with. The people to the left of me have dachshund\wiener dogs while the neighbors behind me have a pitbull and german shepard. I usually let Otis out every couple hours to get some fresh air and to run around. Recently he's been very aggressive towards the dachshunds and to be honest its kind of scary. He will bark and even bite at the fence as if hes pissed off. He WONT listen to any commands and when i put his leash on the fights me and tugs just so he can get back to the fence. As soon as he is back in the house he goes back to being the mellow friendly giant that he is. I don't want to have a bad impression with my new neighbors. Lately he will come out back and try to say hello and be causal with otis. He's a nice guy so i would have to have problems later on down the road. Where should I go from here? should I speak to a vet about neutering him? Should i seek professional help? I'm not one to give up on a dog so i just want to see if there are options. I'd appreciate any help or advice! TL;DR: . Assistant:

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/AskReddit TITLE: An ex-coworker is suing the company I work for and wants me as a witness. What should I do? POST: Background: This guy was fired a couple months ago. The company told him it was because of his attitude and because he had been "threatening" toward his coworkers, particularly his female coworkers, of which I am one. He wasn't everyone's favorite coworker - he was very quiet and kind of awkward - but I think it was because we as a team are a bit cliquey and he was a latecomer. He never quite fit into the big weird family we all made up. He and the company have been fighting over the unemployment compensation he feels he is entitled to and the company feels he is not. Several of his former coworkers, including me, wrote character statements for him asserting that we never felt threatened by him and that, essentially, the company had lost a valuable employee in him. Now the company is fighting him again, demanding that he pay back the unemployment benefits he has received, and he is taking it to court. The company listed two specific incidents in which this guy was supposedly threatening, and I happen to have been present for both of them. I never felt threatened in the least, and so he wants to call me as a witness when he sues the company. He has already submitted many, many documents as evidence in his case and says he would like me and one other person as witnesses. The thing is, I'm scared. I don't exactly love my job, but I don't exactly want to lose it either. I have gotten conflicting answers as to what the company can do to me if I serve as a witness; the most likely answer seems to be that they can't technically fire me, but as employers often do, they can probably find other reasons to fire me even though this might be the real reason, so that they look good on paper. In a way I would be honored to get fired for this, because I believe it is right, and the truth, but I also can't really afford it. Can you help me figure out what to do? TL;DR: . Assistant:
Coworker got fired, is suing the company I still work for, wants me as a witness, I'm having a moral dilemma over it and would appreciate any advice.

He was sent back from the shelter TWICE, despite the fact that the shelter strongly warned the adopting families that Bart was a mature, independent cat who didn't do well with children and needed to be the only pet. Apparently, when he was returned, it was because he was "mean." My mom adopted him, let him do his own thing in the house, didn't get in his space at all, a month after she adopted him he jumped into her lap. Now, he follows her from room to room. He's friendly and loving to both me and her, and loves sitting in our laps- which can be a problem, because he's a HUGE cat who weighs like 18lbs! He's a giant panther cat stalking around, but he's a sweetheart, and even acknowledges and accepts strangers now (if they offer attention)! Point being, if you're going to adopt, PLEASE make sure you listen to the shelter about the temperment of the cat. Cats are wonderful, loyal, loving creatures, but they are NOT submissive, they are NOT dogs, you CAN NOT "train" them (past a certain point), they will not BEND to you. You can support them and take care of them and they WILL love you undyingly, they will follow you around, purr in your lap and constantly try to attack your feet from under the bed. Just acknowledge that they are little people with personalities. :) Bart is a CHARACTER for sure. :) TL;DR: . Assistant:
My mom has a beautiful giant cat named Bart. He was sent back twice and almost euthanized because people DIDN'T LISTEN TO THE SHELTER, but thankfully my mom saved him. :)

My SO and I have been in a relationship for 10 months now, 7 of which were long distance. Aside from a few bumps, it's been healthy and happy. We are both insecure people, and we are open with each other about it. I openly admit I am an anxious partner that does not easily trust. For the majority of the relationship, he is (for lack of better phrasing) the more "involved" partner. He is more expressive about his commitment to "us" and is usually the first to call or text. This is our rhythm, and it works well for both of us. For two weeks, he's been in France. I was invited on the trip, but couldn't since I started a new job. Since I'm not there, he's used this trip as a personal development trip - studying the architecture, a field he's very, very passionate and involved in. --THE SMALL LIE?-- This whole time he's been gone, I've been insecure. I told him about it once and have not brought it up again. He took it well. Last night, we talked on the phone, and he told me he'd call me today. This morning, he messaged me, saying he could no longer call me since he "doesn't have wifi in his airbnb anymore" and that he'd call me at the airport the next day. OK! That's all fine. It made sense -- he was going to talk to the landlord about the wifi, because it seemed hacked. I was not phased. However - when I logged onto my Facebook after work (5PM; the time he would have called - which is very late at night in EUR's timezone), he was online!! Lying is one thing I really, truly can't stand in a partner. Even those little white lies. I believe small lies lead to bigger and bigger lies. I wish he'd have just told me he was exhausted and needed to pack, and would call at the airport. Why lie! Is this worth feeling weird about? IS it worth bringing up? TL;DR: . Assistant:
boyfriend told a small white lie - might be overreacting, or is this the key to the pandora's box? thank you.

I had just driven from CA to VA without an incident. I was 13 minutes from my destination. A police officer was passing me as I looked at my GPS, which is on my phone, which was resting on my knee. He pulls me over. Mind you I was going the exact speed limit in the right most lane. Turns out that in the state of NY, I dont live there and I have obonly been there like 2 times prior, that driving while holding an electronic device of any type is illegal. So he takes my license and does a check in his car. It takes forever for him to do the lookup. While he was doing the lookup another officer pulls in behind him. I have watched cops before. It is never a good sign when backup arrives. I am thinking that I have some hidden parking ticket or warrant. Great I think, as I soil my pants just a little. The officer comes back up to my window. He hands me my license and apologizes that he is force to give me a ticket. He is nice enough to give me the DA's number and lets me use his pen, so long as I dont stab him in the neck with it. I asked if it would get me out of the ticket, had I stabbed him in the neck. He said no. I thanked the officer and asked if I were allowed to drive while holding printed instructions. He informed me thst in NY, at least, I could be drinking coffee, smoking a cigarette, eating breakfast, and read the Sunday paper. I just needed to keep one hand on the wheel. I thanked him and went on my way. TL;DR: . Assistant:

POST: I'm a 22 year old female and a senior in college. A week ago, I started hanging out with a friend from class who is also graduating this year. He came over and we spent 4 hours talking about everything from family and kids to human morality and religion. It was great to be able to talk with someone about substantive topics rather than the usual "Omg how drunk were you?" conversations that the kids at my school usually have. We started out by just kissing and then after a few more times of seeing each other, we slept together. I saw him 4 times this past week. Is that excessive? He's moving to Paris after graduation and I'm moving to New York so I obviously don't want a relationship out of this. On the other hand, I'm getting bored of just going out for drinks and hanging out in my room. I want to get dinners and do other things, but I don't want the guy to think that by asking for more, I'm getting clingy or expecting him to be my boyfriend. I basically just want to do more activities with him other than talking and hanging out at my house, but still want to keep things fun and casual since we only have 3 weeks left together. How do I transition to doing dinner, movies, etc... without seeming like a stereotypical clingy girl? TL;DR: . Assistant:

This was the first time I've seen her in about eight months (we live on opposite ends of the state). Now this is a girl that I never got over and am still completely in love with. We dated for about five months and then I broke up with her because I was scared of falling in love and was to selfish to admit just how much I cared about her. Time passed and I realized just how fucking much she means to me. I tried to forget about her by sleeping around, dating other girls,and just doing everything in my power to push her out of my mind. I saw her this past weekend because she came down for a mutual friends wedding (which we went to together) and realized that I am completely lost without her and can't imagine her not being in my life. She has a boyfriend at the moment, and if that wasn't hard enough, he doesn't treat her with respect or the love she deserves (and I know that I could treat her so much better.) Anyway, we had a long talk about it this weekend, and apparently she still loves me just as much as I love her, but we both suck at long distance relationships and she wants to see if things eventually work out between herself and this guy; but she admitted that if they don't, she isn't gonna try dating anyone else and will just wait till we can be together. She left this morning and I have been a complete wreck ever since. I just miss her so damn much and am so scared of losing her. I feel so lost and don't know what to do anymore. How do I get through this? TL;DR: . Assistant:

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/tifu TITLE: TIFU by being an extremely dense guy POST: As with most stories on here, this happened a couple of days ago (Monday). I went to a large Labor Day party in the town I live in, at the request of some of my friends who were playing music at said party. I was standing in front of the stage, just zoning out and listening to the guys play. All of a sudden, I noticed two (lady) arms shooting out around my sides. I ignored it thinking she was trying to dance with someone behind me. She continues to dance and makes her way in front of me. I'm still kinda just zoning out and don't really pay much attention, until her face is about two inches away from mine. She asks me if I'm having a good time and I of course say yes. She then asks why I'm not dancing, and I lie and say I don't know how. I proceed to do a kind of stupid shimmy thing, because why be serious? She laughed and said that was how she danced too, and started doing it next to me. I continued to do so for a minute or so, and then stopped. She leaned in again and said something, but I couldn't hear her over the music. Instead of asking her to repeat herself, or moving away from the stage and speakers to talk, I proceeded to just give her a small smile, like she said something funny. She kept dancing next to me for a few songs, gave me a weird look, and left with her friend, who I guess was behind me the entire time. About fifteen minutes later, the band takes a break, and my buddy who was playing came up to me and asked me why I didn't dance with the girl. Evidently from the stage he saw her make a beeline for me from the back of the party. Of course, I had just assumed she knew someone in the band and just wanted to be close to the stage. It took me a few more minutes to realize that she was probably into me, and I completely blew my chance. TL;DR: . Assistant:
Went to a party, had a girl come dance up on me, was too dense to realize she was flirting, and blew my chance with one of the cutest girls I had seen in a while.

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/AskReddit TITLE: Reddit, have you ever won a sweepstakes, contest, or raffle? If so, what did you win? POST: I would like to hear your success stories. Here is mine. When I was in college attending a hockey game, I walked by the 50/50 raffle booth. I had always thought of entering, but as a poor college student a dollar was worth more at McDonalds than the odds were of winning. However, this time as I walked by I thought, what the hell, and dropped in two dollars. This was around Christmas time, so I was pretty poor. During the hockey game they announced the winner, and I ended up being the lucky draw. I won somewhere around 160$. It was enough to buy a few Christmast presents that I wasn't able to afford prior to winning. TL;DR: . Assistant:
Entered my last two dollars into a 50/50 raffle, won approx. 160$, and was able to buy some Christmast presents.

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/tifu TITLE: TIFU by having my friend change one word in a document POST: So since it's hack your school network week I figured I'd make my first post this. This happened last year and there is a little backstory . My school has a gaming club and they download computer games (illegally) and put them on a folder in the commons folder on our schools network. So any ways me and my friend would always go to his moms room (she is a computer teacher and has a bunch of computers and let's us on our phones and shit). We on occasion would play games from the gaming club folder until one day all the games were deleted because they were pirated but they left a note saying why they were deleted. Here is the FU.anybody is able to edit the document so I tell my friend "hey you should change one word."(badass right). He agreed to do it and changed. 2 days later the gaming club lady is at his moms room pissed off. When he changed the word it apparently said he created the document. Anyways she had our IT guys inspect every computer to see what actually happens and then proceeds to tell us "this is what happens to my gaming club when kids decide to hack the school server". needless my friends mom was really pissed when we told her what actually happens TL;DR: . Assistant:
I tell my friend to change one word in a document, gets accused of hacking and gets his computer privalages banned until IT searches every computer he uses.

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/AskReddit TITLE: College redditers, are any of you feeling as though most of your credits or other requirements are for the benefit of your school rather than your future? If so what situation has made you feel this way? POST: In contrast, if you haven't felt that way feel free to share what your college/university has done for you that has created a major, positive change in your life. I would love to hear some pleasant stories as well. I'll start with my own experience. At the (minor) risk of being identified I will avoid sharing too many details. I'm currently attending a four year university after just transferring from a two year college. I was very excited when I scored surprisingly high on a placement test for a subject directly related to my major. This later turned into a bad thing as I discovered I still owed credits for the four classes that I had tested out of (20+ credits). Other classes that I could earn these credits in are less related to the subject and are worth half the credits of the normally required classes. This means I will have to take eight classes in the subject instead of four. I asked myself why the school did this and I could not think of how this would benefit me. I asked my adviser why and was told that's just the way it is. The school would get more money, I would attend longer, and they would be able to claim to have contributed to a larger chunk of my education. How does this help me at all? I considered studying abroad in a place where I could earn the credits by taking more advanced classes in the subject instead. However, I was told that as a new transfer student it would be preferable (likely required but I haven't found out yet) that I have more credits at that school so I am more established there. Again I thought about why this is. I can't see how this would benefit anyone other than the university. I know it is idealistic to think that students shouldn't have to contribute to their school in some way but we are paying for it at least. TL;DR: . Assistant:
I have to earn credits in classes I tested out of and would have been better off coming into the school without knowing anything about what I am majoring in.

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/relationships TITLE: I[17M] am not sure if I am doing enough in my relationship with my girlfriend[17F], Have been going out for 6 months. POST: So asked this girl out 6 months ago and it's been alright, but I can't help but feel something is not clicking. I am quite quiet so I'm not always sure whether I should be more physical with her or not. We have had sex so it's not like she's not keen, but just with general stuff like hand holding and pda. The reason I'm saying this is because whenever we go to parties, she always goes off and hangs out with her friends and almost never with me. I'm not sure if that's normal or what, because my mate's girlfriend and him are so close and always stay together at parties and gatherings... Do I need to follow my girlfriend and be a little more clingy or just keep waiting for her to come to me because her going off with her friends is normal? This is my first proper relationship so I don't really know what is normal or not. Should also mention that she is really quite also. TL;DR: . Assistant:
first girlfriend of 6 months, she leaves me for friends at parties, do I follow and be more clingy or not?

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/tifu TITLE: TIFU by pissing outside POST: My apartment building has a very strange phenomenon where people will just sit in their cars for extended periods of time. Why? I have no fucking clue. This one lady I know for a fact lives there and I see her every afternoon sitting there when I pull in after work, and still sitting there a half hour later after I take a shower. The building faces the ocean, but these people choose to back into the parking spot so they are facing the building, middle of winter so it's cold as balls outside, and just sit there. Doing who the hell knows what. It's so weird. Anyway one morning I wake up and my roommates rockin a piss already. It's one of those mornings where I simply could not wait 30 seconds for him to finish, I had to piss *now*. I did the only logical thing and swung open the sliding door to the deck (that faces the parking lot/ocean) and do my business in the warm doorway, giving that dirty deck a nice golden shower. This happened at 6:15 am. Before I pissed everywhere I was careful to check out the lot. Every single car was off. There was no wind; it was silent. I was sure no cars were running. I scanned each car individually and they all appeared totally empty. Perfect, open the flood gates. But as fate would have it, on the one god damn morning I decide to piss out the deck door, halfway through my business some lone motherfucker just swings his car door open and hops out like it's nothing out of the ordinary to sit in his car at 6:15am doing literally nothing. I had my pants pulled down just enough to reveal just my dick; I don't even care if he saw it. I cared more about cutting off the flow and not dribbling all over the inside rug for fuck's sakes. What the fuck though, does anyone else experience this? People who live in a nice cushy apartment yet they will just... sit in their cars, regardless of the time of day? TL;DR: . Assistant:
pissed out the deck doorway in front of presumed empty parking lot early in the morning before the sun was even up, one guy hops out of car out of nowhere and probably saw everything

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/AskReddit TITLE: What's reddit's opinion on this situation... POST: I am getting married in September. My fiance has a 50% chance of being a carrier of Muscular Distrophy. We get the test results back this afternoon. However, I'd like to know what redditors would do in our situation. For those that don't know Muscular Distrophy is a disorder in which male's muscles deteriorate over the course of their life. In severe cases, the child could die before they are 15. In other cases, it could be that the child will just eventually end up in a wheel chair. The muscular distrophy that my fiance would be a carrier of, is the latter. If you have a child that's a boy, he has a 50% chance of having it. If you have a girl, they aren't affected by it, but they have a 50% chance of also being a carrier (like my fiance). Our options if my fiance is a carrier: 1. We have kids, and hope none of them get Muscular Distrophy 2. We don't have kids, skip the risk, and adopt instead TL;DR: . Assistant:
My fiance may be a carrier of muscular distrophy. If in my situation, would you not have your own kids and adopt...or have your own kids and hope none of them get it?

Human: Summarize the following text : SUBREDDIT: r/dating_advice TITLE: [m20/f19] so this girl invited me to a party, could use some advice POST: Ok so one month or two ago i met this girl in line for a night club. We hit it off so i ended up going home with her, and we had a good time (no sex). So we've been talking a bit on facebook since. I also asked her out once and she said ok, but she ended up getting sick so that went down the drain. Cue some radio silence (took this a sign that she wasn't interested) and suddently a few days ago she asked if i wanted to come with her to this pre-party at her friends place this weekend. This is good stuff i figured so i said yeah sure i'll come. And now i've been thinking. The pre-party is at her friends place and i don't know anyone there. I also dont know this girl all too well either and it just hit me that this is probably not the best "date" scenario. Oh well, i'll be going anyway - i'd beat myself up if i didn't. Also worth noting is i'm not the most outgoing person, but as the night progresses alcohol tends to smooth this over pretty fast. So... how do i approach this situation in the best way possible? how am i supposed to keep her entertained the entire evening? TL;DR: . Assistant:
girl invited me to a party, barely know the girl and i know no one that will be there. i'm also somewhat introverted. Never been in this situation, could use some advice.
