To give a little back story, November 27 I was terminated from my job. The reasons were something similar to \"this isn't working out\" \"We've had some attendance issues\" and a few other various things seem to be thrown in there. The main reason I was probably fired was due to (*speculation*) not working overtime and lack of work coming up. \n \nShort version: I requested PTO and was approved before thanksgiving, I was told to work 10-6 the sat and sun before thanksgiving week. I had previously worked both weekends, along with my 40hr weeks, and this time I told them no, I already had plans and requested thanksgiving week off. Tuesday after thanksgiving week I was fired. I was told it was my last day but I would be kept on payroll and be compensated through Dec 31, and so technically I was still employed.\n\nAfter that point I spent my time job searching. I applied to a job on the 17th which I was contacted about on Jan 2, the company recruiter passed my info along to the hiring manager and they decided they wanted to interview me today. I completely forgot I had not updated my resume and nothing ever came up about \"current\" job or \"do you still work here\" so I never really had a chance to insert it and honestly I was so focused on making a good impression and what I could bring to the company it passed my mind.\n\nSo I choose to follow up with an email a few hours later because my gf asked if they asked about being fired and I had already worked up how I would discuss it. I felt like a complete dumbass for excluding it. The email was an interview thank you follow up and I inserted a paragraph about them not having an updated resume and I did not want to misrepresent myself and my employment ended Dec 31.

I had to take out the Government loans as well as private loans. I have a question about my private loans. As you can see here, this shows my principal balances, interest rates, and current interest accumulated. \n\n The 13.250% loan has a fixed interest rate, the others are variable. I would really like to pay off both my private and government loans as soon as possible, and I am trying to figure out the best way to do it.\n\n I am a little confused over the wording of the paperwork I have on them. For the loan I took out in 2009, the wording about prepayment is \"Prepayment will not result in a penalty. If you choose to pre-pay, you will not be entitled to a refund of any loan origination fees or any finance charges accrued through the date of repayment\" Does this mean, if I were to pay it off, I would only need to pay the current interest and the principal balance? The paperwork says that I would end up paying around $19,344 if I pay it over the 15 years, but if I pay it off sooner, I would pay less?\n\nThe other 3 loans have different wording. \"If you pay off your loan early, you will not have to pay a penalty. You will not be entitled to a refund of part of the finance charge\". To me, that seems like, even if you pay it off earlier, you would still need to pay all of the interest that would have accumulated over 15 years. Are my thoughts correct? \n\nAlso, considering all this information, how should I go about paying back my loans? I have $27,000 in government loans, + interest, plus these private loans.", "role": "user" } ]

I'm utterly lost and scared shitless.\n\nTo start off:\n\nWhen I was 18, I left an abusive home to go to college in another state. I was told that I could get financial aid if I could submit my fafsa - but after multiple attempts I couldn't get it to go through because my father was blocking me in one way or another. I wasn't aware at the time that I could apply as an independent. In short, I accrued $18,000 in debt from that college which went into collection.\n\nI then returned to my hometown and I've since been attending another institution and received federal student aid - but I took dual-credit classes in high school which didn't contribute to my degree, but ended up counting against my federal credit hours cap so I was denied further federal aid and my appeal wasn't accepted.\n\nNow I'm in my last stretch of my career. I'm in 2 classes right now and I will take 2 classes over the summer and then I'll be able to graduate. But I need to get a loan to pay for this semester and the next and I can't seem to get approved because of the default. \n\nMy plan thus far was to finish college and then start paying off that 18k. There's no way I could pay that loan right now and still afford my living expenses.\n\nIt's been 5 years since the date of the default and I don't know if I should somehow get a loan and let that default reach its 7 year limit (because I don't think it counts as a student loan...) or if I should try to go through a debt repayment agency to get that 18k out of default.", "role": "user" } ]

I am attracted to her, and we do have a physical aspect of our relationship, but she's not the most attractive women I know (or dated).\n\nI should also mention that we are both christain and that God is a central part of our relationship. Its something that we can share together and has been a good way to bring us together. I've slept with 2 girls before, she's a virgin, we have decided to wait before marriage to have sex. I'm ok with it, though I do fear that it will have an impact on our intimacy (possibly a source for my lack of attraction?)\n\nSo what should I do? Am i expecting too much from the relationship? Is physical attraction an unimportant thing in the long run as long as we have an intimate connection? If I choose to ignore these feelings, will they come back to haunt the relationship later?\n\nThanks for your help.", "role": "user" } ]

We had both been in relationships prior to this one, but none had been as good. We were at schools about 2 hours apart, but we could only visit each other once every few weekends.\n\nWe had been dating for a year and a half, and it was an extremely mature relationship - there's really no other basic way to say it. We both were open, trusting, always communicating, and very happy loving each other. We didn't have fights, per say, because we ended up talking out our disagreements in a totally reasonable manner. Neither of us could have asked for a better relationship, or better best friends. Our relationship didn't put any strain on relationships with other friends, either!\n\nThis year, my girlfriend entered her freshman year of college. We decided we would stay together and remain communicative about our feelings, which we did. This thanksgiving, she initiated a discussion about how she wanted to start exploring other people at school. I totally understood, and agreed - I would also like to see who else is out there! The problem was, neither of us had a reason to leave the other. We were both very happy and we both still loved each other.\n\nSo, tonight, my girlfriend told me she wanted to break up - not because she was unhappy with our relationship, but rather because she was sad about the distance between us. She was happy every time we got together, but when one of us had to leave to go back to school, she would become sad. She also expressed that she wanted to begin exploring other people at her school. I totally understand both points.\n\nI'm looking for advice partly in that I'm seeking words of encouragement. We don't dislike each other after the breakup.

I'm scared I won't be able to handle not seeing him for months at a time, since we have been living together for nearly 4 years. \n\nI love my boyfriend, and I want to spend the rest of my life with him, but I'm not sure what to do. His enlistment is 4 years. I just can't imagine uprooting my own life, leaving a well paying job I love, and leaving family. I would also want to wait to have a family because I wouldn't want our kids to deal with not seeing their father, but what happens when he reenlists and becomes a career military man? \n\nIf we break up it will be unbelievable hard. I've planned already to spend the rest of my life with him. If we stay together my fear is that something will tear us apart. I don't want to be another failed military marriage. \n\nPlease help, I'm so desperate for advice!", "role": "user" } ]

In my opinion we're getting along nicely, but she hasn't exposed herself yet - not acknowledging if she realized I'm hitting on her (she *must* have, I'd say).\n\nRecently I've discovered (she mentioned it in passing) that \"her ex's changed\", \"there might be some rekindling\" (almost her words) - after some initial discomfort I decided to play it like nothing's happened, going by a \"what's the worse that could happen\" mindset - keeping on with the \"friendly flirting\" attitude, like dropping \"wow, you're marriage material! [laugh]\" lines, for the sake of giving you an idea. There have been no negative reactions or any shying away so far, so that makes me doubly confused, having almost no experience in flirting and reading signals. Add to this that any physical contact I've initiated (still keeping a 70% friendly, 30% flirty ratio I'd say) was never \"rejected\" or got her to show signs of discomfort.\n\nWe haven't got a one-on-one meetup yet, while we see each other once per week - so far, we've only met for practice and kept in contact through texting - but I've asked her out, to talk about common interests which we have a lot of, and she's eager to.\n\nI might be overthinking or projecting, but being analytical about everything and unexperienced in dating&relationships, this situation confuses the hell out of me. Especially the stuff she mentioned about her ex, it might have been a \"discouragement tactic\" but I'm not sure at all.\n\nI would be...\"fine\"...with dropping a \"wow I didn't really mean that, sorry\" line if she was uninterested, for the sake of friendship, but still being unable to figure out if I *do* have a chance or not is driving me crazy.", "role": "user" } ]

I had slowly increased my mileage, up to only 4 miles a day. my perfect mid-foot strike and wear pattern on the sole of my frees left me bewildered.\n\n Everyone uses minimalist shoes these days, so it couldn't be that, right? \nWRONG. Turns out that 100% of the problem was the minimalist shoe. Last week I got new shoes and was humiliated as I purchased the chunkiest, ugliest old fashioned sneakers on the advice of the shoe specialist. Now I run on what feels like big fluffy cushions, but my knees haven't even twinged.\n\nWhen I started posting about this issue a lot of people who were ex-runners because of their IT band told me it was hopeless. I hope they see this post and try cushioned shoes.", "role": "user" } ]

There is no place on this earth that can reach the level of diversity on the internet. The Internet is home to communities that reach every type of conceivable person. One gigantic melting pot of people. People say that America is a melting pot. That is true but only on the smallest of scales. If you were to look at the internet with the standard view, all you would see is information. But think about it as more than just some simple place and you might just find something simply amazing; a place where no matter who you are, there is someone else out there on the internet who is like you.

She started to not reply to my messages even though i made it clear to her that I would want us to be just friends. A while later, i went to start another convo on facebook with her, and it had appeared that i couldn't reply to her anymore, nor could I view her profile. I had found out she had blocked me. I'm assuming her new bf told her to block me on all social medias because he probably saw our previous messages, why i assume this is because we had talked before and whenever I would bring up the girl he would make an angry facial expression and also because he had also blocked me. So after I found out I was complaining to a best friend about this and he messaged the girl about how she had me blocked and she said \"I didn't know\".

It was actually in the news, but I can't seem to find it on the internet, considering it happened in like the 60's.\n\nNeedless to say, the following spring, the guy didn't park his car in my father's parking lot.", "role": "user" } ]

We have a lot of shared moments, went to the same schools, stayed in contact since leaving, have laughed, cried, been drunk, know each others' families, know everything about each other. We have no secrets. Having gone a year or so without meeting up since he had been studying abroad, we had lunch, there was suddenly all this amazing chemistry, he was incredibly affectionate, and, long story short, we ended up having some sort of fling. This lasted a few weeks, then he decided he actually quite wanted to pursue another girl. The only reason I agreed to act on the very blatant sexual tension with him was my understanding, based on a lot of things that he had said/talked about, that this could seriously go somewhere, but timing wasn't right. I was hurt beyond belief - he was the first person I'd been intimate with since a serious sexual assault a couple of years ago, and actually, excepting that experience, only the second guy I've ever been with, which he knew about. I really felt like I could trust him. We talked, I explained all this...he is distraught and genuinely sorry for the hurt he has caused me, and I, whilst acknowledging that hurt, have made my forgiveness clear - I've known him long enough and know him well enough to know that this was not at all intentional. \n\nNow looking for advice on how to take our friendship forward. I really truly forgive him, I'm not angry or bitter - just wanting to protect my heart.

In short I started seeing someone else (that didn't work out but oh well! another liar for another time!) and starting ignoring Freeloaders messages. He became more desperate and would ask to see me. I suffered with a heavy blow of Glandular Fever so used that as an excuse as to why I couldn't come and see him. He made no effort to come and see me.\n\nHe launched into a massive rant about how his sheltered housing was now \"dangerous for him to live at\" because someone involved with drugs/witnessed a murder was in there for safety. He whined \"that its not exactly good for me is it? I need to know whats going on! I need to get out of here and have a safe place to stay in don't I?. He knew that my house was free as my parents were away, a massive hint drop if ever I saw one. So I brushed it off and said \"I hope you find somewhere\" as sad as I was for him, I certainly did not want him at mine outstaying his welcome and going through my things, helping himself to food and toiletries. He kept on for a few days and then obviously realised his efforts to see me and his hints were futile. \n\nSo now I haven't heard off him for the past 2 months. No calls, no texts, no Facebook messages. He's very absent on Facebook and last I saw he was moaning about not being able to play Pokemon Go on his \"POS phone\" \n\nThank you for the comments guys, I certainly do not associate with him anymore.

I already have a Capital One card that's unsecured and has a $2,500 limit. I'm charging Netflix to it to keep a balance ticking over, then have the bill paid automatically every month from checking.\n\nThis has been in operation for something like nine months. About three months ago, I decided to apply for another card I thought I'd qualify for, hoping to increase my overall limit. I was denied. Got an offer in the mail for another one just recently, applied for it and was rejected. Little do these banks know, I have many years of perfect payment history overseas.\n\nAnyhow, I have a fairly huge emergency fund and no debt. I think putting a $3,000 deposit down and getting this secured card may be a good move in my quest to improve my credit standing. As I understand it, the higher limit would reduce my utilization somewhat, but would also show that banks were willing to lend to me (even though they're actually not). One of the reasons cited for rejections has been a low number of open accounts.\n\nIs this smart? The deposit for this card would be placed in an interest-bearing account, according to the terms. There's a chance – it's not clear how big a chance – that I'd be converted to an unsecured account after a year or so. I hope at that point I'd be able to withdraw my money, although astonishingly the T&C don't address this at all. The only downside I can think of is a situation where I'm not able to convert it to an unsecured card in the future but I want/need the deposit. I'm also not clear on whether converting to unsecured would mean opening a new account and closing the original, which it seems would negatively affect average account age.", "role": "user" } ]
