I am usually quite social and quite flirty when I am in my classes (although I focus on my classes more to get the best grade I can). I have met this girl in one of my classes and she is really awesome. I got her phone number, we text here and there, and we get along. I have a good feeling about her. However, one of the reasons why I do not like dating classmates is that it gets VERY competitive. I went to one of my classes today and this other guy is chatting it up with the girl I have been talking to and I did not have a chance to talk to her that much today. When things get competitive, it really turns me off and I seem to avoid a potential relationship altogether. Is this the right thing to do? I feel like I can not control these things and I do not want to make the environment feel like the \"animal kingdom\" and \"edgy\" if you know what I mean. Anyone else feel this way? What should I do?\n\n*An important note, I get turned off when a lot of guys talk to one girl (For example: A girl is texting 5 guys at a time and there is a rotation where you wait your turn)", "role": "user" } ]

I have to ask her to shave her legs and armpits. \n\nThe last thing is that I am having an extremely hard time staying sober with her. I'm an addict; coke, weed, alcohol. I worked extremely hard to get my life together. She does not do drugs and drinks socially. All her friends are heavily into drinking and also into coke. They are always trying to buy me drinks and taking about drugs. I slipped up last week and did coke for a few days. This isn't what I want for my life!\n\nIt's not working.\nThe problem is that she is completely dependant on me. She could never afford rent on her own and this would basically force her to move back in with her parents.\nI feel like such crap. I pursued her hard. I asked her to move in with me and I asked her to marry me. I believe this will be completely blind side her.\nI know I made her sound bad in this but I really do love her, I just can't be with her.\n\nWhat should I tell her? I don't want to list all the reasons I don't want to be with her, that will just cause unnecessary hurt but I really need her to understand I want to break up.

One that I remember, that recently I found out had been invented was a machine that would tell people how many parking spaces were available and where those parking spaces were in a parking garage. I'd always hate going to the mall with my family and being stuck searching floor after floor of the garage for a spot, and thought that what if someone could create a small sensor like an invisible laser that you could install over every parking space to signal whether a car was under it or not, if the space was free it would light up and direct cars to it. This was 5 or 6 years ago when I was in middle school. The first time i saw one of those boards that tell you if a garage was full I thought to myself, wow that could've been my idea that got me rich, if only I capatilized on the thought. Yesterday as I was parking my car I noticed green lights over spaces that were free and red lights over spaces that weren't...someone had invented what I thought of years ago and put it into reality.

For the past... almost 11 months at this point I suppose, we've been hooking up but remaining friends in a pretty weird situation. Well, I discovered she had feelings for me, and found that as I was coming into my junior year I had developed the same for her. It seemed like somehow we were actually going to avoid a messy friends-with-benefits falling out of sorts.\n\nAnyways, she and I ended up having an open conversation about the possibility of dating. We decided that there was some stuff I had to take care of first, but we were both into the idea and agreed to be platonic friends until we would (really inevitably at this point) start dating.\n\nAnd then, a few days after that conversation, I got really, way too drunk and made out with one of our mutual friends. Hoo boy. While this mutual friend and I talked and agreed it was a stupid mistake that we didn't want to repeat, my friend (rightfully so) became very hurt. She went home for the weekend and we stopped talking, but she came back basically saying that she didn't want to cut me out of her life, but that I had really broken her trust, I would have to build that back up, and that our friendship would never really be the same.\n\nHonestly, I deserve all of it - even though it really was a stupid mistake and I would never in my right mind intend to do something like this, the fact is that I did it anyways while drunk and really did fuck up.\n\nI don't know that there's much to do from here - while I'd really still like to date this friend, I can definitely see why that possibility could be off the table forever now. I guess at this point I'd just like to know if anyone has any advice for what to do from here; I'd like to prove to her that I do really care about her and build that trust back up.

I would be coming into their home at least looking for a job but hopefully already having one, with a license (she didn't have one, only recently got one) and car, a high school graduate (she dropped out), in an abusive home, in college, plus I cook and clean which she never did.

As we came in toward the dock I started prepping the boat (putting bumpers out, etc.). It was at this point that I realized my fuckup. Hanging from the bow cleat was my still-attached anchor rope! In my hurry to leave the swimming spot I totally forgot to pull up the anchor and been dragging the anchor all around the lake!\n\nI sheepishly pulled up the anchor and was so flustered by my abject failure, that I made several more critical mistakes in docking and recovering the boat:\n- I put the bumpers out, but then docked on the wrong side and got a few new dings in my gelcoat from the dock\n- I forgot to lift the prop up all the way so it drug on the pavement as I pulled the trailer out of the water\n- I parked on the edge of the parking lot while I surveyed the damage (since all the boat trailer parking spaces were full) and got an earful from the park ranger", "role": "user" } ]

Several messages at odd times of the Night of her asking if I will get angry if she hugged her Ex. (Future note: receiving this message should have clued me in, but I was so infatuated at the time I didn't really put too much weight on it.\n\nII.)Frequent Movie visits to movies I had invited her to watch with her \"Brother\", and several visits with her \"girlfriends\" towards the end of the relationship. Which she flat out denied me from even visiting after (for lunch, FroYo and the like)\n\nIII.) Limiting eye contact and constant denial and (soft) refusal to spend time. Tons of excuses such as \"needing to take care of the nephews\", and having a family movie night... EVERY SINGLE TIME I planned something for us to do. To the point that she can't even reserve a weekend for us 4 weeks in advance(Vegas Trip).\n\nIV.)Finding from one of her friends that she was infatuated with her Ex-BF for a year after the breakup, which ended around the same time I start dating her.\n\nI used to feel like I was in the wrong.

A week later we received an email from them saying, \"[Venue] has contacted us to say you are getting married there. Congratulations on your upcoming wedding, it's time to pick an officiant and confirm all of these details regarding the location, date, time, and overall vibe of your ceremony.\" I replied back saying I had already been in contact to request an officiant and I answered ALL of her questions, and said that we were still in the process of confirming our ceremony time and that I would let her know ASAP. The next day I emailed again to confirm ceremony time, and within ten minutes I received a reply from her saying, \"Thanks for confirming your ceremony time, can you answer everything else now?\" Uhm, I already did. So I replied back answering all of her questions again and reiterating our interest in this one specific officiant. Three days go by and I receive ANOTHER email from her saying, \"Great, now all that is left to do is confirm your ceremony time and we can check if the officiant you want is available.\" Arg! I just don't understand why they can't pay attention to the things that I've emailed them. Should I send back one email reconfirming all information start to finish? I think if I get another email asking me any of the same questions again I'm going to go nuclear. How hard is it?

Things were going pretty well. We got along well, sex was pretty good, we met each other's families, and we get along with each others friends pretty well.\n\nIssue: We have openly talked about how we are not super attracted to each other. Neither of us has the impulse to just tear the clothes off the other. Despite that, our sex is usually pretty good. Lately, I have noticed myself \"just going through the motions\" when being intimate with her. I should mention that my girlfriend is overweight and I am not. She is not super obese or anything, but she is overweight by the BMI definition. I am not overweight. She tore her ACL playing softball a year ago. I thought maybe she would lose the extra pounds after her knee healed, but this has not happened. She has mentioned that she wants to shed the extra pounds. However, her actions don't follow through on this. She skips workouts, doesn't seem to have a lot of portion control (she doesnt eat giant portions, but I've never heard her say 'no thanks. I'm on a diet'), and I she recently laughed about eating a can of pringles. So I think this is contributing to my lack of attraction to her. Also, I think I have some issues about thinking of other women. I haven't slept with a lot of girls in my life (like 3) and I constantly wonder if I could maybe have a few flings and then settle down. I know that sounds bad but its true...\n\nCurrent Status: I felt strongly about talking to her today about how I have been feeling. I asked her how she felt things were going. She didn't say a whole lot. I told her I haven't felt too romantic towards her lately and that I know I like her, but maybe not in a romantic sense. I didn't come out and say the weight thing is an issue. That's hard for me to do because I know she's had a previous eating disorder. Anyways, we're on a break now.

I initiated and we sent messages back and forth here and there for approximately 3 weeks. They were long messages, sometimes lightly flirtatious, which is what I was looking for. After a week or so I knew I was wrong to have started it but I was enjoying catching up with a friend--which is what it had become.\n\nThe friend was home for Christmas and we both suggested meeting. I downgraded from a drink because i thought it would be inappropriate, and if we had actually decided to have lunch I would have asked my girlfriend's permission and finally spilled the beans on what I had done, kiboshing the entire thing if she said I should. \n\nInstead, she caught me red handed. We talked things through after i had a sleepless night on the couch and we are staying together, despite what she feels is emotional cheating.

It doesn't get in the way of school or personal relationships, nor does it get priority over anything I get to do with my girlfriend.\n\nSince she has learned this new information, she has been upset and wants to talk with me about it tonight.\n\nShe is a very emotional thinker, which can sometimes make explaining things a little more difficult.\n\nSo I turn to all of you. I could use some help in how I talk to her about my habits to leave her in a peace of mind about us and our future.\n\nThanks in advance.", "role": "user" } ]

I believe citizens have both the constitutional and the natural right to bear any small arms they choose - including assault rifles, machine guns, and even should-fired missiles.

However, I don't think people should have to pay special fees or taxes on specified weapons types (for example, the current NFA tax on short-barreled rifles). In short, I advocate firearms being freely available with minimal government regulation.\n\nThe common arguments against gun control involve hunting, recreational shooting, and home defense. I whole-heartedly support those things, but I think focusing on them too much ignores the primary reason for an armed civilian population: PROTECTION FROM TYRANNICAL GOVERNMENT.\n\nWhen writing the 2nd Amendment, the Founding Fathers specifically had armed militias in mind. Such militias played a pivotal role against the British during the American Revolution, and it was assumed that they could play a role in keeping any future government in check.\n\nToday, the media regularly tells us about police brutality and CIA torture. It is now \"legal\" for the federal government to spy on, kidnap, indefinitely detain, and assassinate anyone (including American citizens) it deems a \"threat\" to itself.

I briefly chatted/emailed with a few guys with the intention to meet up soon, as I didn't join to become someone's online pen pal. In their photos, all of the guys seemed relatively attractive, but when I met up with them in person, not so much. Out of the 3 I've met up with so far, maybe one of them I could see myself being physically attracted to if I get to know him better. The other 2 were so nice, but there's no physical attraction on my end. There's nothing wrong with them, per se, they just look different (and not as good) in real life than they did in their pictures. A little softer and rounder, too. They're all definitely attracted to me. I've always thought of physical attraction as a main motivator for a romantic relationship, but these experiences have left me feeling very superficial and weird.\n\nI had been in a long term relationship for 3 years until last fall, and I never really \"dated\" before that, so I don't know how to tell these guys I'm not interested in a nice way. I don't really even want to be friends with them. They're calling and texting and I'm trying to be non-chalant about it but I don't want to string them along. Am I being way too superficial? Should I give these guys a chance even though I'm really not attracted to them? I don't want to lead them on if they're destined to the friend-zone.

Instead of listening to me, I arrived home from school one day to find the tree massacred in my front yard. It was in such a condition that it will NEVER grow back. This has left me with an incredibly large amount of guilt . I often times feel as if I am worth nothing because I did not do enough to protect the thing I love.

My problem is that I have been suffering from depression since the begining of highschool (freshman in college now). I realize that many people suffer from depression, and it can be overcome, but depression is not the reason I am here today. Reddit, although it pains me to admit it, I have completely lost any semblance of a sex drive I once had. It has nothing to do with lack of being able to get girls in bed, I am fairly attractive (or so i've been told) and pretty confident and charismatic as well. The problem is that when I get girls in bed, I am unable to function sexually (I can't get hard). \n\nNow initially I blamed this on the anti-depressants, was talking prozac at the time which is an SSRI, but I switched to a non-ssri called bupropinol of which I take 450 mg daily. Reddit, the problem is nothing has changed. I was drinking with a gorgeous girl the other night, and when we got down to it I was unable to function. I ended up just going down on her and we both had a good time, but it was embarassing for me not to be able to do what we both wanted to do. \n\nI am set to see this girl again (later today, possibly tomorrow if I push it back) so any advice you can give would be greatly appriciated. This is not an isolated incident either, this has happened to me a total of 3 times so far. Initially it was just anxiety, but now I dont know what to think. I literally have no motivation to go after girls anymore because I feel like I wont be able to function when I need to.

Long story short, she has started to talk to her ex who she dated over 5 years ago and lives across the country from us. They have mentioned how they want to run away together jokingly(He is married as well). My wife and I have been very close up until the last 3 months when our living situation changed. I feel like much of her talking to him has to deal with her venting to him and finding someone to talk to. She has no clue I have seen all of her texts. We are working on correcting our relationship issues and moving on, so far it has gone well. But this is a major setback and a huge surprise to me. How do I approach her about it to find out her true intentions without running the risk of it blowing out of proportion if it actually is what I, and my friends, suspect it to be.. a crutch?", "role": "user" } ]

She's single.\n\nShe knows me and that we're in a relationship, but I don't know if she necessarily respects that. While this wouldn't have bothered me if it were one of his long-time friends who sent it, she isn't super close with him. She also has had a history of (in my opinion) acting flirtatious with him and crossing some lines with her behavior, and a couple times, being really disrespectful toward me when I saw her in person. I get the impression that she's sneaky and manipulative - I think she has an agenda - but my boyfriend disagrees and thinks she's innocent and just trying to be friends.\n\nIn any case, a while back, I got pretty uncomfortable with her behavior, so I asked him to set some firmer boundaries with her. He did, and he actually ended up going a step further and distancing himself from her as a friend. They only talk every now and then, and she's not happy about that - she tries to contact him a lot, and posts a lot of passive aggressive posts on social media. I think she blames me for losing her friendship with him - which isn't necessarily untrue, but the reason I intervened was because of the way she was choosing to act in the first place. \n\nBut back to the current situation: to make it worse, he didn't tell me about the message even though we were on a trip together on valentine's day. He usually tells me if he hears from her, so it's weird that he didn't mention it this time. Should i consider this to be a red flag? And either way, how should I approach this?

It was cordial, but both of our hearts are broken. \n\nI'm having a horrible time getting out of bed and going about my daily business.

She is trying to give us a chance, and things are getting better (sleeping in the same bed again, I get a kiss goodbye in the morning, spend time together after we get home from work etc), but she still has feelings for him, and seemingly slightly less feelings for me. We had a fight about it, I yelled (which I have never done in an argument during my adult life), but I told her that I forgive her even though it hurts. \n\nShe says she cares a great deal about me, but is having a hard time loving me again after being rejected so many times. \n\nWe're starting marriage counseling next week, and she seems optimistic about it.

It was nice being able to laugh and talk without the resentment on either side.
