Everything in the house \"reminds her of her mother\" and she constantly brings it up. Because of this, my mom finds herself dreading heading back to the house every night and feels as if the home is not where she belongs. \n\nI talked to her briefly about the subject, but she seems very distraught and I honestly have no idea how to respond to that when she asked what I thought. Any advice? Thanks.", "role": "user" } ]

He squeezed me in response and didn't say it back, which is completely fine. I know he cares about me, and some people move at different paces when it comes to using the word 'love'. \n\nI just don't know how I should proceed.

Steve was a friend of hers away at school and they haven't talked since. I told her if she wanted things to work between us, that her and Steve could not remain such good friends. I told her it was okay for them to hang out in group settings because I understand that they have the same friend group and to cut contact with him entirely, she would have to cut herself off from almost all of her friends up there. \n\nI'm just having a hard time accepting that she would do this, because it's so against everything she stands for.

So here's a little background to the situation. My brother is 20 years old, out of school for 2 years and works less than 10 hours a week as a stock person at a local grocery store. His daily routine, when he is not working, involves either sleeping, gaming or hanging with friends where he disappears for more than 24 hours at a time. What he does with his friends is truly a mystery but my parents assume that he hangs with his friends to get high (marijuana mainly) which I can confirm, however I feel that I am not at liberty to snitch on him, at least at this point in time.\n\nMy parents and I have gotten into countless conversations/arguments regarding his poor habits as well as the more important topic of what he will do as a career that will allow him to be self sufficient. When these arguments do come up there is usually a large push back from him where he tries to pin the blame on my parents and will try to come up with any excuse to get out of the conversation. Simply put, my brother is lazy and unmotivated and it is because of this my parents are beating themselves up and are beginning to view themselves as failures as parents. With this, I am turning to the reddit community to seek advice to what my parents, as well as myself, can do to try to motivate my brother and push him off this unproductive path.\n\nAlso, it is important to add that my parents understand fully that people learn differently and realize that my brother is less of an academic and more of a hands on technical learner. They tried to use that to his advantage and enrolled him into a technical/trades based high school in hopes to allow him to find something that would interest him. My parents don't care what he does with his life as long as it is productive and he becomes self sufficient.\n\n[", "role": "user" } ]

The guy, lets call him 'Peter' supposedly had no idea I existed, which is feasible considering him and my gf were 'supposedly' drunk and high.\n\n It is only once she tells me about this that my male friends (that knew) decided to start supporting me of which they did, and only hesitated in telling me 2 weeks later due to the situation most likely effecting my performance in exams. My gf starts texting me with copious amounts of text messages saying that she had f***ed up, etc, etc. and that she hopes I can forgive her. \n\nWhat concerns me is that this was 1 occasion that I am aware of, and that I cant attend every party/event/gathering that she goes to, which makes me worried thinking that this incident may occur again due to her liking to drink and smoke (as most of everyone I know). I now have to decline going to one of my good friends 18th due to Peter being there, and a vast majority of his peers and that of the probability of a fight breaking out due to my sheer aggression i have towards 'peter' now. \n\nAlthough I may not sound sad through my wording I really, really am and caused me to cry for the first time since I can remember. I feel another contributing factor is my inability stay hard once a condom is on and that of my gf frequently asking for sex, which also depresses me a fair bit knowing I can get and stay hard for everything asides a mere fucking condom.\n\nIm sorry if this is to long/explicit, I just would really like some advice as im really am unsure as to what to do", "role": "user" } ]

For some context, the last relationship I had was in a different state when I was at a different school and didn't end particularly well.\n\nI've been having a really hard time meeting people in my new state / city / school for various reasons, some of which I'm guessing at. In order to combat this, I decided to try online dating. I had been on OKC before (which is actually how I met my last boyfriend), but I hadn't had much success in my new area so I decided to shell out the money for Match.com. It's been going... alright. I live about an hour between two major cities so most of my matches are within one or the other. I have been talking to one guy quite a bit, but due to conflicting schedules and the distance, I haven't actually gotten the chance to meet him, and probably won't for another week or so. \n\nBasically, I'm posting this for several reasons: 1. I am burned out from the dating. I would love a relationship, but I hate the kind of work it takes to get to a person you want to be with. How do I have fun with dating? 2. I feel like I need to give more people a chance, especially this guy I've been chatting with, but at what point do I need to just say, \"we need to meet or I'm out\"? Or for that matter, how much of a chance should I give anyone? How do I know when I'm being too picky? 3. How do you meet people you might be interested in a small area with a busy schedule without much opportunity to branch out of your regular community?\n\nThis is sort of a rant as well, so I apologize if anything is unclear and feel free to ask me to clarify or go into more detail. I'm just pretty frustrated about the situation and would love some thoughts, or just to talk it out. And if nothing else, thanks for listening Reddit.", "role": "user" } ]

On his way back he insisted that we go \"quilling\". \nFor those not familiar with this sport, it involves a car, a bunch of drunk friends, some towels, and a shit load of porcupines. Basically, my dad convinced my mom to drive around backroads at about 230 in the morning trying to find porcupines. When we saw some on the road, my friend and i would jump out, chase them down and whip them with towels to see how many of their quills we could get. (their quills grow back and its painless for them, bring on PETA). All in all we came back with 200 some quills and a bunch of good memories.", "role": "user" } ]

Almost immediately, i got a job in order to pay for my college expenses. At the time my grandparents were having an incredibly hard time supporting themselves, let alone me. I had been basically fiscally abandoned by my parents with little to no money, to my name. Anyways my grandparents were beginning to think about filing for bankruptcy. My grandfather was on his way home from work one day early in October (2012), fell asleep at the wheel and was killed in the resulting car crash. His life insurance settlement paid off for nearly 500k. My grandfather whom i loved with all my heart, wanted nothing more than to see me get a college education. Now just shortly after 7 months later, I'm graduating with my associate's degree with a 4.0. Hopefully in another few years, i'll be on my way to being a surgeon, and making enough money to take care of my grandmother, who has helped take care of me.", "role": "user" } ]

I asked what was going on and she started crying and unloaded everything. She was worried about our future, she's worried I won't be enough for her, all of her past relationships have lasted a month and they all left. She wants to work on it and right now, we're still talking and together, but I'm having doubts. From what I understand from what she told me, these are irrational thoughts that just pop into her head. When I asked what I can do to help, she told me to \"give her space when [she] needs it, to let her talk to [me] needs/wants to\". I'm concerned that maybe she's not feeling anything between us anymore. I'm trying to be optimistic, but it's difficult when you're not getting good vibes back.\n\nIf I need to clear anything up, let me know. I'm really confused. Am I naive, am I missing something?

I dedicated much of my time to drawing instead of doing homework while I was in school. I've never had my driver's license, much less owned a car. My only experiences driving have been a beat up Monte Carlo without brakes when test driving for my uncle, and some fun with a golf cart which I accidentally backed into A. My boss' back bumper, and B. a parked trailer. Yeah, I'm not exactly the brightest bulb in the chandelier. This lack of motivation didn't seem like much of a problem until reality bitch slapped me across the face over the last few months.\n\nI went to Colorado in April with the intention of moving in with a couple who I looked up to. Shortly after my arrival, our apartment complex was bought up and our rental rate doubled making my $10 per hour (which I was my highest paying job) useless when it came to making a living. We ended up moving in with another friend of ours on a one acre plot. Five people including myself, and six dogs in a double wide. We had the intent of starting a permaculture garden there for our own garden of eden. Unfortunately, I was also a dumbass and didn't consider the unemployment rate of the town is 23% for folks my age on top of the fact I don't drive. Needless to say I was feeling some immense pressure as the last of my funds dwindled. I found a way out through my grandparents (lifesaving wonderful folk.) This did not make my Colorado friends happy as they felt I could've done more to get work, and maybe I could've in retrospect.\n\nNow back home (grandparents' home, which I was raised in since I was a youngling), I've been unemployed since October. It's shit weather, I have no vehicle, I have good relationships with people...but they are over sixty miles away. I feel pretty low, and I'm not sure how I can crawl out of this hole. I just want to make some goddamn progression.", "role": "user" } ]

My nan on my mum's side is also fit and well so I've never really worried about her before.\n\nI'm going home in a couple of weeks so will be making sure that I see my grandparents whilst I'm back but right now I just feel incredibly scared and I'm not sure how I'm going to deal with death when it happens.\n\nI'm sorry if this doesn't make much sense but I've been quite upset about the whole thing.", "role": "user" } ]

Going through the highschool phase of liking attractive guys or douchebags was tough, but I honestly have found someone who is smart, puts his family first, and has good life goals ahead of him. I am Asian, with decent grades, and average looks. I am an only child, and when my parents look at me, they see a world of possibilities. I am very family orientated, my family always comes first along with my faith. However, my parents expect my boyfriend to be stellar and amazing. \n\nHe's either not good looking enough, not smart enough (which I disagree with), not out going enough, and as you can guess the list goes on. My boyfriend has been nothing but supportive, kind hearted to everyone, he grew up in similar conditions which led to similar values, and he can read me like a book, which most to all of my friends cannot. We started university this year, and it was hard for everyone-not just us. Grades was something he could always count on, and this semester it just wasn't there, for me as well it was a tough semester. Then for Christmas, he gave me a rather bad present, and to my parents it seemed like an insult. This was the last straw for them, and all hell broke loose. \n\nI know we're young, and this may not last but he has been a driving force in getting me through everything. Our relationship gives me hope, but my parents are telling me he's not someone I can end up with later in life. I'm not ready to talk about ending up with someone, but they never gave him a chance. Only had dinner with him once, and judged him solely based on his looks, and him being nervous for dinner. \n\nSo tonight I stood up for my boyfriend, and fought with my parents. Am I in the wrong, or should I keep fighting for him, or I mean should I altogether give up on convincing my parents?", "role": "user" } ]

She got a decent volume of books out there in paperback for a decent price and maybe pulled in a couple hundred bucks per year for a short amount of effort. \n\nObviously when she died her business died with her except that her books are still available on Amazon and so I would imagine that income is being generated but no checks seem to come to her at her former address. Candidly when she died it wasn't on the top of my to-do list to track this down. \n\nBut now that some time has passed I stumbled on some papers in cleaning out some of my stuff and it reminded me. \n\nJust wondering if anyone has any thoughts on best ways to proceed.

Long story there but she did have a will but the names executor had since become someone with whom the family never spoke.

Where one person has more benefit than the other? Well I've only had one of these and it so happens to be with my \"best friend\". I've always been there for her, when she got pregnant and aborted, when she got pregnant again and delivered her baby, every time she has had issues with her baby daddy, you get the point. She's been there for me too but for some reason every time we hang out we always talk about her and her problems. She asks general questions about what goes on in my life but nothing too deep. I love her because we've been friends since we were 13 years old. But I'm tired of being a GREAT friend to her when she is barely a friend to me. We've both talked about this (because I brought it up) and even cried about it. We decided we'd try to be more involved in each other's lives but nothing has changed. I'm pretty tired of it because I feel used and I really don't benefit much from this friendship. \n\nSo now getting to my question. Her family loves me. I've never been a bad influence on her, I've been a great friend to her and they see that I love her and her baby. That's what her sister told me when she asked me to be her bridesmaid last year. Her sister and I get along well and knowing that her list of friends is short I felt bad and told her yes. Now that we are getting ready to buy bridesmaid dresses and my relationship with my \"best friend\" hasn't gotten better I'm kind of thinking of backing out of this. I know her sister is not at fault here but I don't know if I'd feel comfortable being a bridesmaid anymore. Should I talk to the sister/bride? Should I have another talk with my \"best friend\"?

I got myself a bunch of really nice close friends and we do lots of stuff together all the time.

One of them even told me the next day that she respected me more now.\n\nI find it really weird that it isn't just one fluke, but many of my friends that try this. And mind you, not the female friends that are single, only the ones in relationships.\n\nWhat I'm wondering is, why do they do this?
