Our summer spent together was beautiful, we had an amazing time with one another. That is, until he decided it wasn't worth his time.\n\nAnyway, this post isn't about the break up. I met my ex up in Vermont at his school where my best friend goes to. We all share mutual friends, as I have become close with their friends up there. Everyone is going to this festival, which I'm very excited for, however, he is as well.\n\nI've been doing pretty alright for the most part since the break up. I meditated and severed the mental attachment I had to him (for the most part.) What I mean by that is meditating, imagining a clear connection to the person who you are attached to emotionally, and then severing it. All mental and meditation.. \n\nSo point being, thinking about him doesn't throw me into despair and panic attacks. However, finding out last night that I will be seeing him and quite possibly hanging out in the same group at our campsite might be really difficult..\n\nMy fear is losing my shit if he doesn't talk to me and losing my shit if he does indeed talk to me. I don't plan on staying sober that weekend which might make that even more possible.\n\nI'm not sure what I need to do to prepare myself. I need advice how to go about this entire situation if I do see him. Should I say hello? Be the bigger person? My mind screams no because he really hurt me and took the wrong way to break up the relationship.. but at the same time I really don't want to have a bad time and have others feel negative energy when we're all trying to hang out and have a good time..", "role": "user" } ]

When I went to work, I came home and one of them had completely destroyed my expensive reading glasses, my flats and my EarPods for my iPhone. They did well over $100 worth of damage. A lot more damage then I am getting paid for. They had to jump on a table to get to that stuff, it was not laying on the ground. Do I tell the owner that the dogs damaged my property? If I tell him, should I expect him to pay for it? Or is that the risk I take watching a stranger's dogs?", "role": "user" } ]

He said he'd try not to shout again.\n\nRecently I've been playing Smite with him, he constantly gets angry/puts me down and rages at other people (calling them retards, swearing, asking if they have downs etc.) He has also been mean to me about it (though less often); he called me retarded and shouted at me asking why I won't listen to him on 2 occasions since we started playing again.\n\nIt's impossible to have fun playing with him. It's also embarrassing as we play with someone from school and he was there when my boyfriend got really mad at both me and the person from school... Then my other friend was concerned about me when he was told what my boyfriend was saying to me in the Skype call.\n\nI tell him he's being mean whenever he does say things to me or other people, but he still goes ahead and does it. A week ago we argued and then he blames it on being ill or stressed. Eventually he said sorry, but he has continued to be mean to other people and thinks I'm dumb when I tell him to stop. (They deserve it, apparently) He also has been shouting at me in frustration on Skype sometimes.\n\nI report him after each game for harassing other players, but his account hasn't been banned yet. He doesn't know that I report him when he's being like this.\n\nWhy does he do this to me and other people. How can I get him to stop?", "role": "user" } ]

Like, ridiculously so. Self-made multi-millionaire at 20 after starting his own business at 18 while also graduating from university 2 years early. We were rivals in a bunch of things at school, and it wasn't a problem, but had a big fight when I was rejected from my first-choice university after Harry also applied and got in with a very similar resume, even though he had no intention of going. We made up, and later he offered me a chance to join him in starting his business (part-time while studying), but I declined.\n\nIn hindsight, I think that not putting enough effort into university applications and not being willing to commit to the work associated with a start-up are two of the worst decisions I've made. I'm fairly high-achieving by most standards: have ended up at a top university anyway, getting good grades, currently working a well-paid internship, etc. Of course it's difficult not to be comparative, but by itself the fact that I'm jealous of Harry is something I think I can deal with. What's making it really problematic that his successes are closely correlated with my own biggest regrets. Since we're living in different countries right now, it takes some effort to Skype and stay in contact; but because of those associations and the emotional response I get when thinking about them, I'm increasingly hesitant to do so (he talks about his academic and corporate work a fair bit, since they're very big parts of his life right now), and have to focus on pushing down those feelings when we're talking. Of course this is my problem not his, and I'm not sure it's the sort of thing I'd want to discuss with him, but I'm wondering how people would recommend dealing with this.", "role": "user" } ]

Unfortunately I don't think that the problem lies with social media sites, but with human nature. Facebook and everything else out there has just made it easier and more temping for those that struggle with monogamy or commitment. \nSo my question is how often are you bothered by friends and followers of your SO? If your SO has developed a new relationship with someone the need to meet in person or even speak over the phone to help your new found friendship flourish is no longer needed, all you need is your Facebook messenger. These virtual realities of ours while being so open to the public are also very private at the same time, it's an interesting virtual paradox. Do you find it appropriate to talk to your SO about their virtual friends? \nIt's one thing to have an outing on the town with mutual friends or a night in playing games, it's an entirely different thing to have people who you only really associate with through social media. What is the purpose, are they there to spill emotional baggage too, are the on the back burner being warmed up for a rebound? \nAfter dealing with infidelity a number of times in my life I would like to know how people in serious relationships are dealing with social media, and how, why, or why not it is having an affect on your relationship.", "role": "user" } ]

Last August, I (29M) started working full time after a LONG period of unemployment. Before that I worked freelance as a graphic/web designer and photographer but it wasn't enough to make a decent living. I own professional equipment and have 5 weddings under my belt, but my biggest problem is self-promotion and advertising (I'm not the most confident person when it comes to selling myself). At this new job, I'm working 40+ hours a week making $15/hr. The job is related to my field (graphic design), but it's not a creative position. I'm basically pumping out orders for this company based off of templates. The first few months were okay since I was learning new techniques and a new program, but now I feel like a robot and this place is sucking the life/energy out of me. There is no sick time, no personal time, the building itself is not well-maintained, and there is nowhere to move up in the company. The only thing keeping me going is the idea that it's not permanent. My plan was to make it a year at this place, save some money, and figure out the rest when the time came. I live with my SO and am lucky to have very low expenses (<$500/mo) I've managed to save around 15k in the time I've been there. I miss the freedom that came with freelance work, but having a steady paycheck is certainly nice. It's very tough to find a job in my area, so on one hand I feel lucky to be in the situation I'm in, but on the other I feel like I can do much better.", "role": "user" } ]

I suffer from depression and thoughts of self-harm but before she left, she acted as my escape. When I opened up to her, I finally felt like I had someone there for me. I couldn't be happier. But then she decided to leave for a college across the state. I was beyond devastated on the inside. I still congratulated her though and decided to stay together since we are so in love.\n\nUnfortunately, I caved into my depression and cut myself today. After growing so close to her, it's hard for me to spend time with anyone else now. I find it exhausting. I'm seeing a therapist and have been taking meds but nothing seems to work... Self-harm is something I still think about day in and day out. It's only made worse by this feeling of being alone.\n\nTo summarize our conversation yesterday, she just started crying and asked me not leave her. While it's sweet to know that she cares about me, I think she missed my point. This relationship is now furthering my depression... What do I do?

I was sure that she liked me.\n\nNow this may have been my error but I basically didn't beat around the bush after about 3 dates I asked her if she thought this would be a thing.

I really am, I felt like I loved this woman, I thought about our future together and now I don't know what the hell to do. We have crossed the line physically and when we tried to talk about it she broke down and started crying, she won't speak to me anymore.\n\nJust as more background.. Yes we have spoken about our pasts before, yes we have spoken about our parents but it has always been \"my mother was a druggie and my dad a drunk\" we have separate last names and to be honest I just NEVER considered it a possibility that we could be related.

I was feeling a little down about it earlier, but just talked to him about it. I was a little bit apprehensive about talking to him because in the past me being honest about things that bothered me just led to him hiding things from me as opposed to actually solving anything. Additionally, I didn't want to make it seem like I was making a big deal of what could be perceived as \"nothing\". \n\nI prefaced our conversation with that disclaimer and he was very, very wanting to know what I was feeling. I said that I wanted to talk about something, and hesitated going into the conversation, but he encouraged me to this time.\n\nI started by telling him that him doing things like taking me out to dinner and coming to visit me are really, really sweet gestures and I really appreciate them -- and I'm all warm and fuzzy when he does these things. But then I find out he does them for his female friends too and then feel a little stupid for feeling that happy. I pointed out specific incidents -- the driving 2 hours to come see me, flying to visit me over break, and taking me out to dinner. And I pointed out the counter-incidents which made me not feel so special.\n\nHe was very receptive and cleared up my misconceptions for me. Apparently he will sometimes pay for his female friends but certainly not for more expensive dinners (like the ones he sometimes takes me out to). Additionally, him driving two hours to go see his ballroom partner was just a one-time thing -- afterwards, he decided it was too much of a hassle and demanded that she make efforts to come practice with him instead. He mentioned that he is enthusiastic about driving distances to come see me though. :)\n\nI felt very warm and happy after that conversation. I was scared to tell him how I felt, but I felt so much better afterwards, and he thanked me for telling him. I'm really happy we talked and I feel like we're definitely doing better at communicating this time around.\n\nThank you Reddit for all of your wonderful support/advice. :D", "role": "user" } ]

I cannot talk about actresses without her comparing herself too the, or really, comparing my interest in them to my interest in her. Which is not the same thing. This problem even arose when I talked at length about pin-up girl tattoos, an Idea she liked and I intended to get one, but apparently I spoke too enthusiastically for too long about the fictional drawings of women. \n\nI really like having in depth conversations about movies and music and have not been able to have them with her because I may talk about a certain actress or singer in a way that makes her think I hold them in a higher regard than her.

I know Tinder isn't really a \"dating app\" but I installed it a few months ago just for fun, until it turned into me actually agreeing to meet up with guys who I hit it off with.

Today I was supposed to meet up and have lunch with another guy I met on Tinder, so I told my mum I was having lunch with a boy in the city. I was contemplating just saying I was having lunch with friends, but decided to tell her i was going with a boy, but not that I met him online. Then I realised that i made a massive mistake, as now I have practically dug a grave for myself, when i told her I met him locally when he actually lives nearly and hour and a half away, and became really evasive about other details. So I ended up cancelling the date, and I'm going to be questioned SO much by my mum that i'm going to have to confess that I lied and that I met him online, and that's going to cause a bit of strife.\n\nI feel so pathetic about virtually needing my mother's consent to go and meet people! I know about 'stranger danger' and am safe when it comes to this, so how do I go about meeting people from online with my mother being so over-protective?

There are a couple problems we keep having, though, and attempts to deal with them haven't worked yet. \n\n1. She's literally always home. My boyfriend and I both work full time. She's on break from school (we both are) and leaves the apartment either for an hour or two during the day to run errands, or not at all for days. I can't tell you the last time I got to be home alone or that my boyfriend and I got to be home alone together. We don't get a lot of time together because of our work schedules so this is annoying. She had promised before to give us some alone time more frequently but she never does. \n\n2. She never stops talking. This is part of the issue with her constantly being around. It's to the point where I avoid watching tv shows and movies around her that I haven't seen because she will talk loudly through the entire thing even after people turn up the volume, stop responding, or shush her. \n\n3. She's constantly high. Like 24/7. I wouldn't really care about this since all of us smoke, except she smokes indoors at like 8am and leaves windows open (it's -10 degrees here lately) or smokes in her bedroom which is 10ft from our front door and our landlord lives upstairs. I'm 24, I'm too old for this shit. We had told her when we moved in to either smoke outside or wait til after 8pm and do it in the bathroom (but close the window after). \n\nNeither my boyfriend or I want to move out and we both care about her but attempts to bring this up to her never work more than for a few days. Some of this is, in my opinion, disrespectful and irresponsible. The other stuff is just annoying. What do we do?", "role": "user" } ]

I was prescribed the anti-d citalopram and assumed that because I eat less when happy, I would continue to lose weight on this medicine. Opposite! I gained 20 pounds in a month, and stopped taking it immediately after seeing the scale. I had two weeks of horrible anxiety and self loathing because of it and felt some nasty binge eating habits starting.

I cried and she prescribed me phentermine. I know the stories about brutal side effects, but I'm willing to take it. I'm already planning on how to keep it off after I'm done taking the pill.

I dated one person for about a month, but then broke it off with her, as she made some really inappropriate comments to me that raised some red flags.\n\nOther than that, I have not been on any second dates, by my own choosing. In my experience, internet dating (when you're looking for something beyond hooking up) is incredibly inefficient and mentally taxing. I just haven't been interested in hanging out with my dates a second time, mostly due to feeling a lack of connection on my end, though I'm sure the feeling was mutual for some of the dates.\n\nLo and behold, I finally meet someone in person who I am incredibly interested in, and she's taken. I don't know how long she has been dating her boyfriend, but it's off limits as far as I'm concerned. I do think she has a little crush on me as well (have caught furtive glances from her, we make each other laugh frequently), and that if she was single, I would have a chance to date her.\n\nMy emotions are running wild - I am incredibly bummed out that I won't have a chance to get to know her better and hang out one on one, and I don't think I have the patience to go back to online dating, for the time being.\n\nI should disclose that many of my friends say that I'm too picky when it comes to relationships. Part of me thinks that's a good thing, part of me thinks they are right and that I'll never meet someone due to my high standards.\n\nI'm sure many have been in this situation before.

She's sweet, a total tomboy, and she's real cool. Now normally I fall head over heels for girls, but after our first date she made it clear she wasn't necessarily looking to date. Fine by me, I'm in a phase of my life where I'm fine without a girlfriend, but the problem is I'm a virgin and plan to stay so (until I find someone I love enough to give it away). That makes hookups difficult. This girl has slept over on weekends, and I've gone out drinking with her friends, it's a good time, but I'm realizing now that I kind of want a relationship. It doesn't have to be with her, but I care about her, and she had one of those drunk spill all moments the other night. She basically said that she cares about me way too much and wants a relationship but is scared and so she'll never date me. She said however she would date me if we eventually had sex. This scared the crap out of me. If you like me, date me because you like me, not because you want my sex. It's so confusing.\n\nOn top of this, there are two girls who I know for a fact would love for me to ask them out. I could do this as I don't have any immediate attachments to the girl I'm fwb'ing with (if you can call it that), and they're both definitely looking for a relationship. It's strange because I usually fall head over heels for the girls I'm seeing very quickly, but this time it's been different. I'm just really confused. I think I'm going through a phase or something. Thanks guys. Appreciate help in advance.\n\n-Kirby1056", "role": "user" } ]
