He expressed interest in dating me, but I turned him down because I am a lesbian. So we became good friends. He would occasionally make suggestive comments about my appearance, but I put it down to him just having a very flirty personality. He can be really immature, but he had a couple of months stint in jail over a stupid fight with another guy and when he came out, he was changed for the better. He had matured a lot and wasn't flirty, or touchy-feely with me. He seemed to really get it that we were just friends and I would not \"turn straight\" like he hoped. That didn't last long. \n\nHe texted me the other day that he wanted to kiss me, which freaked me out. He's going to move in with me on the first because he is unhappy where he is living and I am not having good luck with roommates. It just made sense, but now I'm concerned us living together would give him the wrong idea. I used to drink a lot and he told me once if he caught me while I was super drunk, he would take advantage of me. I never drink anymore, but I have been worrying about that comment because I have been raped before and if he's going to be living with me... I mean, I really don't think he's that type of person, but still. Should I still let him move in with me?", "role": "user" } ]

It feels like a far off utopian ideal. \n\nYet I see places like reddit full of people that at least seem like they care. \n\nIn theory the internet is the ultimate tool for social connection and information exchange. This makes me believe that technological solutions are out there which we simply haven't bothered to enact. \n\nThis then leads me to the thought that maybe if we collectively put our heads together we could either 1) devise a way to apply political pressure from the web or 2) organize to effectively solve glaring social and political problems ourselves (particularly since it is clear that banking and oil interests have a death grip on the current political structure).\n\nThe ultimate obstacle is then motivation to act (hence the title question). \n\nHowever I recognize the possibility that people may not want to put in the effort to change the status quo. There is also a distinct possibility that people enjoy the status quo enough to discourage the risk of change. \n\nHence I ask, \"Would you be willing to start an internet spawned social/political revolution?\"\n\nWhen I ask this I do not want the opinion of \"people\" or \"society at large\". I am wondering how you personally feel about taking on such an endeavor.", "role": "user" } ]

She is American and we both live in the US, but I'm originally from Spain and my family still resides there. We are both going on vacation to Italy next week and have an eight hour layover in my home town. Although we haven't decided what to do during this time, it is quite likely that she will meet my parents.\n\nMy mother is disabled due to a severe stroke she had a few years ago and can no longer speak, walk, nor take care of herself. She stays at home with my father and has a nurse take care of her while my father works. I have not yet mentioned this to my girlfriend, partly because I have not found a good time to bring it up and partially because I am very reserved about sharing this information with other people. I believe I have also not completely made peace with the situation and have only ever confided it to my best friend and my now ex-girlfriend.\n\nMy girlfriend's family also has various medical issues, which she has always been very open about. Although I know that my situation is nothing to be ashamed of and that I have every right to avoid telling her until I feel comfortable, I can't help but feel a bit lousy about not telling her earlier. I just hope that she doesn't feel that I did not trust her enough to tell her without the pressure of her meeting my parents and that this has a negative effect on our relationship. The truth is that I absolutely trust her with this and that she is one of the most important people in my life, it's just that whenever I tried to tell her I got cold feet.\n\nI guess all that I am looking for with this post is some reassurance that she will probably completely understand why I have withheld telling her and that I didn't do anything wrong or questionable.", "role": "user" } ]

He is definitely obese by all classifications. \n\nI was always thin though since dating him I have also put on weight, probably 30 pounds.

My boyfriend has exhibited signs of potential health issues in the past 2-3 years, and I've tried to gently sway him to work out or at least go walking, all to no avail. He has chest pains occasionally, sleep apnea, and had a diabetes \"scare\" because he was having very frequent urination, which can be a sign of diabetes.\n\nHis father (also obese) got diabetes at age 40. \n\nThis has come to a head in particular today because we got a call today that his mother (also obese) had a heart attack... at age 45. My boyfriend admitted it was due to her obesity, high sugar diet, and refusal to work out.\n\nBut he is EXACTLY the same! Literally right now we are sitting and he is having a late-night snack of a chicken parm hero... after a regular dinner... and I have never been less attracted to him than at this moment.\n\nI admit I'm not perfect and I have always struggled with my own weight. However, I am PHYSICALLY in shape-- I can run quite far on a whim, like six miles-- and I walk quite a bit, basically as much as I can. I also try to eat low sugar out of fear of diabetes. \n\nI know that he is thinking marriage/long term future stuff, but this is the one issue that distresses me. I can't imagine being with someone who is having heart attacks or diabetes at 40, when my own parents were just starting to have kids and were in the prime of their health. \n\nIs there any way to help this?

He told me him and Jen were still dating, and I was truly amazed at their commitment to each other.\n\nA few days later I saw her in the subway with another guy (we live in the same city). They seemed fery flirty, and then started kissing. It was obvious they were dating. She didn't see me though.\n\nNow I really don't know what to do. Usually I would keep my mouth shut because this is none of my business, plus Max is not a close friend so I don't know if I'm in the right position to tell him.

Because if i'm going to get over it with time, I should continue to have enjoy myself because it is possible.\n\nI might be delusional. I don't know lol. This is why i need your advice.

We work in different departments. When she started working, I took notice and made an effort to get to know her. After a couple months, I asked her out and found out she was involved with someone......which was verified when we became facebook friends later on. I didn't take it personal and we simply stayed friends at work.\n\nWell recently, I'm getting a vibe that she's interested in hanging out together. We never hangout outside of work, we just talk during work and we'll go out to lunch together. We never talk about personal topics, just current events. Oh, and I deleted facebook a few months ago. the reason I don't just ask is because I don't want her to think I'm just staying friends to wait until she's single.....cause that's not the case. And I'd like to avoid the \"I already told you I'm involved\" response. Like I stated eariler, we never talk about relationships, so it would be weird for me to bring it up nonchalantly.\n\nAre there methods of finding this type of info out?", "role": "user" } ]

I'm jobless and my dad is a dick, so he waited until I got laid off to kick me out. So now, I'm homeless and jobless at 22. Guess who takes me in? My friend and his girlfriend.\n\nNow, I knew they were having issues, but I had no idea how fucked up and abusive my friend was being. He constantly treats her like she's second class, puts her down, completely disregards anything she has to say and when she sticks up for herself or argues back he has no problem getting physical. I would've never expected this type of bullshit from him, and he's never even come close to treating another human being like this, let alone a girlfriend\n\nThe worst part is, this girl is absolutely amazing. She has the sweetest smile and is probably the most kind, caring person in the fucking world. Over the coarse of their relationship, her and I became good friends and very close and I get to hear all of the bullshit my friend pulls. I get the 1 am Facebook messages saying how he wants to break up with her. The next morning its like nothing happened and I look like a jackass for sticking up for her. \n\nI need advice Reddit, on what to say to them, and what to do in this situation.

There might have also been turnips?? but I might be confusing the turnip part with a different book. The book ends with the cat losing weight, and he only occasionally indulges in a typewriter key. I remember the drawings -- a cat with shoelaces hanging all out of its mouth, and I think there were a variety of typewriters and different-looking keys. To my recollection the drawings were black and white, pen-style. Obviously this book left an impression on me. I was hoping to give it to my nephew as a present, but I can't find it anywhere. You would think the terms \"cat\", \"typewriter\", \"shoelaces\" aren't usually combined and would easily point to something. I can't believe this book isn't a hit that immediately pops up on Amazon or google. I loved it enough to still be talking about it almost 30 years later. My family thinks I'm crazy, but I don't think I'm even creative enough to make this up... \n\nReddit, can you please help me find this book?", "role": "user" } ]

I was calling the Utility providers in my area to set up the gas/water/elec for my new place, but I was informed that gas could not be set up due to owing a past amount. \n\nI am generally good about keeping up on those things, but am only human so I assumed I would have a small sum to pay. Maybe one months worth that I missed at the end of a lease or something like that. I was alarmed however when I was told that the value was around $500.00 from a home that I shared with friends in college. They stated that this amount was accrued in 2013.\n\nI have spent the last 3 days trying to find the exact time when we moved from that specific house ( it was college, so we had a new place basically every year) and just now found out that the lease was over on 05/31/2012. Basically, whoever took over residency didn't change the service into their name and I did not request cancellation (first house, never had to pay utilities in the previously \"managed\" apartments as they were included in rent, other excuses). \n\nMy question is, am I really on the hook for these fees and what recourse could I possibly have? I cannot afford to pay it, but I also don't think that it should be on me TO pay it.

So far, I've brainstormed these things:\n\n* Why does she need a place to live? There is a big difference between looking for a new place when your lease is up and being kicked out for not paying rent.\n\n* Will this cause drama with your old ex (whom you never let move in after 2 years) at the bar you both go to?\n\n* Will this cause drama at work since you and your girlfriend work at the same company?\n\n* How well do you really know her in such a short time-span?\n\n* Is there enough room to move her in? You've said the house is \"cramped\" when I live there.\n\nSo Reddit, am I missing any big considerations? I've never met the gal, and since I'm 500 miles away I probably wont until summer vacation.
