About 3 weeks ago we had a massive fight because I found out he was having very sexual conversations with people he was meeting online. I should add that we were having sex daily, and more often than not, several times a day. I was and still am insanely hurt and it has left me insecure about whether or not I'm enough for him. He never met them physically, but I still strongly believe that I can consider it cheating. Anyway, the past few weeks have been a little rocky. I decided to give it a second chance because I want to believe that we can get through it. We get along still like we always have until he tries to have sex with me.\n\nWhen we start getting intimate my chest gets tight, like I'm having a panic attack. He started out saying he knew he fucked up big time and that he would wait until I trusted him like that again. Fast forward to late last week, we were play wrestling and I grazed his crotch (on accident), prompting him to say, very angrily, \"Hey, don't touch him. You won't help me get off, I have to do that by myself so don't tease me. It's not like you've been helping.\"\n\nAm I wrong to feel hurt by this? He acted understanding and now he's being passive aggressive about me not getting him off. I feel fine until he tries to have sex with me, and I don't know how long it'll take to change that. I do love him but I don't know if we can get through this now. His behavior lately is making it harder for me to heal from the situation that caused all of this. I have talked to my therapist about it and she said to give it time if I really want to try with him again but he has seemingly lost his patience.", "role": "user" } ]

To me this is a landmine my GF should say nothing. \nAlso getting a kid to give you a coupke of hundred just cause he happens to like this girl lets call her \"insecure teenager\" is just asking for drama.

Is this a white trash thing? \nIm an immigrant so although I was poor my rents encouraged me to treat people with dignity. My parents jobs also dealt with people with intelectual disabilities and battered women.\nMy Ex-gf=gf.

So I just end up staying at home by myself a lot of the time instead of going out. Unfortunately for me, the prospects of me finding a girl to date and hopefully turn into a relationship are not very good right now and I don't really see them improving in the near future. Just looking for some suggestions or advice to help me get out of this downward spiral.", "role": "user" } ]

I've watched many of you assist others, complete strangers, demonstrating the strong community built of selfless individuals here. I sincerely need some guidance here and would appreciate the same. I'm located in NJ.\n\nWhile I was 1500 miles away on a business trip, my brother (17, minor, licensed, and insured) took my car out after a snowstorm and went to a local football field in my community to do donuts - residents apparently called the police and they arrived shortly thereafter. He states he immediately stopped and waited for the officer to confront him. The police ended up towing the vehicle to the station (where it currently resides) and simply brought my brother home to his legal guardian, my grandmother. No official correspondence has been received from the police department at this point - its been 9 days since the incident.\n\nAttempts at retrieving the car have been unsuccessful. Initially, I was told that I could not obtain the car as there was a hold pending investigation and that I could get it back once these investigations were complete. Today, after countless calls to both the trooper that was on site, and the sargent on duty at the time, I was contacted and told that they have applied for forfeiture on the vehicle. \n\nDue to the ongoing and aggressive nature of my brothers activity, I've been told there is $3800 worth of damage. I want to make it clear that I acknowledge my brothers wrongdoing and will ensure, as the courts most certainly will, he repays back the township in more ways then one.\n\nMy issue here is that I've committed no crime but am somehow being punished. I'm an upstanding citizen that has no record, is a good person, and treats everyone fairly. Is this legal? Is it possible I could lose my car over this? If so, how can someone take my property like this? What are my options? What can I do?\n\nIt's worth noting that the car is complete legal and is registered, insured, and maintained as required by law. Additionally, there were no weapons, controlled substances, gambling, or prostitution involved here. According to NJ sanctions on this topic, apparently they play a role in the outcome. What I've stated is what happened, nothing more.", "role": "user" } ]

Normally you'd think this wouldn't be an issue, but it is. \n\nWhenever he's doing homework for this class, he gets really depressed and angry that he can't figure out the problems.

I suggested it to him, but he said he could handle it himself and I'm not going to give him an ultimatum because I know that those aren't healthy. This is the only time he acts that way. He's almost always happier in person.\n\nI feel like he's upset because he feels inadequate because he can't do this class. He's not happy with his major. He's looking into other lines of work, but for now he's stuck in this class. \n\nI have no idea what to say to him when he gets like this. Humor doesn't work. Telling him that's it's going to be okay doesn't work. Telling him that everyone still loves him regardless doesn't work. He's tried tutoring, talking to the professor, anything. None of it has worked. I get sad whenever he talks this way, and being cheerful and upbeat about it takes energy. I've tried asking him what I should do in these situations, but he doesn't know.

For as long as I can remember, I had been overweight (obese, to be honest). I was unhappy and hopeless and pretty much had resigned myself to being that way forever. Fat and alone forever, if you will. Then, as I said, I saw that picture and I decided enough was enough. Something inside me just clicked and I got up off my ass, called the gym and bought a membership. It still took me a week after buying said membership to actually step foot in the gym, but I did it. I downloaded a C25K app, started logging EVERYTHING I consumed into MyFitnessPal, and bought a Fitbit. Those three things together had the pounds just falling off of me. \n\nIt's now 8 months later and I am 50 lbs lighter. I can run 4 miles without stopping, and I consistently eat between 1200-1400 calories a day. I'm still 5lbs from my original goal, and those last 5lbs aren't coming off easily -- but I'm happy with myself. Not just happy, I friggin love myself, you guys.

She always get drunk just to get even with him, and at one point she would cheat on him. Honestly, it happened more than once (happened 4 times, with 4 different guys) but for some crazy reason, they are still together.

For a guy you still haven't met? How can I help my friend at least be happy. Whether they break up or not is not a concern for me. What matters is that she stops crying and stop making bad decisions. Also out of the 4 guys she's cheated on him with, she's still talking to him. The guy goes out of his way to help her. He likes her, and I know it's bad on his part but this guy cares more than her boyfriend does. He even baked her a cake and got her a gift for her birthday while travelling 2 hours just to drop it off. While her boyfriend wouldn't even greet her a happy birthday.

Things have been going smoothly with us and we get along very well. Over the summer she got another job and is moving to a new place (which is closer to her work and to me coincidentally) so she has not had as much free time to spend with me the last few weeks. Here is my problem, she is afraid of commitment especially since she just got out of a 2 year long distance relationship and she does not want to commit to becoming official. Another reason is that she has very little free time lately because of the new job and getting her house ready for the move. I have a growing fear that she doesn't want to commit because she wants to “shop around” I have this anxiety even though we have had the exclusive talk. \n\nSo how do I bridge this gap of where we are in the relationship?", "role": "user" } ]

So I've had episodes before where after I read something, or more rarely though it still happens, if I watch something, I get into a funk/mood. Usually it's a...I hesitate to call it a depression as I feel that that simply makes light of a very serious condition, but at the same time, it's not as far off as I might think. The biggest cause of the mood swing is something that I desperately find to be awesome/cool/amazing/etc. but that either cannot be reality, or that the reality is so far off it might as well not be.\n\nThis time, I was reading a webcomic about a biology grad student accidentally being zapped by a genetics-modification ray, resulting in a six-armed heroine going about being a heroine. Standard stuff, though clichéd. However this is beside the point. What the point is is that, while I had never really been a fan of the style of comic that this was before, the twist/originality in this one has really struck a chord with me, and has caused a funk.\n\nPart of the reason why I am going to college for what I want is so that I can right what I find wrong with the world, which is not unreasonable, I think. I want to be a Bio-medical Engineer and make cybernetic limbs for amputees (or daring clients), work on BCI's to make this happen, all that good stuff. However, mucking about in genetics is something that also interests me, and creating something akin to the heroine from the comic described above is something that is of great interest to me as well. Well, more specifically, having our understanding of genetics that be great enough to allow for that to happen in the future. But this is a very dangerous proposal as it would undoubtedly be turned into a weapon a la \"supersoldiers\", if it is even possible.

Well I don't make too much money and my friend said I would only have to pay 600$ a month of the 2700$. Because I get the office. Which has no doors. No closet and is the smallest room. He agreed to pay extra cause he wanted to master bedroom. Now he is taking his word back and saying I have to pay 700. But I think it is unfair cause everyone else gets their own closet and door to their room which are actually down the hall away from the noise. My room is right next to the noise and front door too. I know 100$ doesn't seem like much. But it would really help me out on making the rent cause I am going to school and working this semester too. What is a polite of saying. If I don't get the 600. I will be moving back home the next month.", "role": "user" } ]

I started twirling the pencil around in my hand and noticed that the yard duty was watching the pencil, so i keep doing that and then I flick it up in the air. As it falls to the ground, I reach for it, and with my other hand I grab my pipe and slide it under the printer. When my principal was done interrogating my friend I was called in. She had just escorted him to another room to sit until they figured out to do with us. I walk out the printer room, see she is across the room from her office, so I B-line into her office grab the weed and put it on the book case.

They lock me in the office and tell me to wait while the police officer talks to my principle. When I was alone for about 5 minutes, I took the weed off the bookcase and hid it in her desk drawer.

I'll spare you the gooey details, but just assume that I became immediately crazy about her. We became really close while we were there, but our vacation ended with an abrupt halt after two and a half weeks. I was madly distraught on the plane flight home, and was a wreck for weeks over how much I missed her, and how sad I was that I never really told her how I felt. I told some of my friends, and they all said that I would get over her in due time. Well, it has been over a year, I haven't seen her in person the whole time, and I'm still as, if not more, crazy about her. The only times I really get to talk to her are our rare Skype \"dates,\" but other than that, nothing. We were so close in South America, but I don't know if she still feels the same way that I do.

Yet, I kept on doing it.\n\nIt had to happen eventually. She discovered it yesterday and she has been devastated since then, sobbing uncontrollably for long bouts of time. Yet, she has also been kind, telling me how much she loves me and asking me rather than others for consolation (which I must say I feel very awkward about).\n\nImmediately after the revelation, I owned up, offering her to break up with me because I realized what a let-down I had been. She turned it down, saying that she would stay with me, but it will be over if I ever watch pornography again. Nor can I break up with her, seeing that she has personal issues where my support is extremely precious to her. Walking away could destroy her.\n\nThere's not much more to say. She and I go along together extremely well and I have to count myself lucky that she still wants to stay with me and I will have to work hard to win back her trust. Although I do think her equation between porn and infidelity is forced, I absolutely disregarded her warning and now I am paying the price. Still, I feel wretched, branded an adulterer and I fear that our future relationship will be entirely on her mercy. \n\nThere has been an incredible amount of anger and loathing over these past few days, but I now see that it is my responsibility to set things right.
