RELATIONSHIPS

We’ve been dating for about a year and a half. I’m a F23 and when we met I was 124 lbs. I now weigh 180 lbs and I’m only 5 ft 3 so I definitely have gained a decent amount. My boyfriend still tells me I look skinny to him and I shouldn’t worry but I’ve never been with a guy who openly appreciates me gaining weight so what do y’all think about it?

Hi, I (m21) the other night while my girlfriend (f21) and I are laying in bed, I go to set the alarms on her phone for her to be able to wake up for work on time as I do every other night, and as I’m doing so I see my ex texts her and me being curious (I’ve never been one to peep through someone’s phone but my ex messaging my gf? I figured I’d check this out) I open the text message. I read her message and see there are quite a few others. And to my surprise I see texts about my chest ( I have gyno and it’s something I’ve always been self-conscious ab) and my hairline, and my sexual kinks, among other things like my family and how they’re a total train wreck. Anyways, back to the point at hand. My current gf doesn’t know I saw the texts, but I don’t know what to do. She always comforts me when I’m insecure but to find this out just hurts. I want to distance myself but I’ve been w her for well over a couple years now, and I still love her. I don’t know if I should confront her or leave it?

girl I've been 'involved' with on and off brings chocolates, calls me sexy and watches smut with me but apparently is in a relationship. is this cheating?

PARENTING

At what age do you safely leave your kids home alone at night?

I’m considering taking my son to our local library (he’s 1 1/2). He’s really interested in books and I’d like to foster that love as early as possible since I loved to read from an early age as well. I’ve looked at our library’s website but I’m just not sure how much there is for kids his age. I’m also looking to get out of the house and do something fun and (preferably) free with AC. What age did you take your children to the library and did they enjoy it?

My daughter is super attached to me and pushes my wife away. When they are alone my daughter snuggles up to her and loves her. When I'm with them my daughter will snuggle up with me and push my wife away. Sometimes she will do this thing when I'm snuggling with daughter if my wife touches her leg or gives her a kiss on the head of whatever, my daughter will rub that spot and go owww as if it hurt her. She will show me the spot to get a kiss on it to make it better. This is a disclaimer I know my wife isn't hurting our daughter behind my back or anything like that. My wife is the sweetest thing and would never hurt a fly.
Curious what is going on with our daughter?

WORK

I just got fired from a corporate job ive only been at for 3 months. The company was terrible and my team was constantly a mess. I tried so hard but unfortunately was never properly trained. During my interview i told them I didn’t have years of experience but they still went on to hire me and then not actually train me. Im feeling so upset and scared that no one will hire me now. Im such a hard worker but have a learning disability so I struggle without guidance. Really need some reassurance right now thanks.

My boss cc’d HR on an email today. In the email he absolutely ripped me a new one, and criticized my ability to be detailed oriented when reviewing his edits. I did prior to this but the document I thought I sent him was not the one I edited (computer issue). I don’t want to argue because it won’t make the situation better, but I think the email was rather out of pocket especially since he tacitly threatened firing me in the email. What’s weird is that he spoke highly of me and my work in a mid-year review and noted how I was “great for the culture” and provide “added value” to our clients. Anyways, I believe our relationship is has reached an untenable point, and I’m thinking of jumping ship before I get a bad mark on my resume. Is that smart? Should I stick it out (only been there a year)?

At the midway point of the fiscal year I unexpectedly received an offer from an outside company. It came with a major increase in salary. I was forthcoming with my boss, said I was contemplating making the move. As a counter they offered a decent lump sum retention bonus so I decided to stay. Fast forward 7 months, it’s end-of-year appraisal time and I get a rating of “meets expectations” and a raise of 4.5%. Wh-whut? Excuse me? MEETS expectations? 4.5% raise?

SEX

I’m a girl who likes girls (lesbian). I’ve never been sexual with anyone, but there are things in certain girls that are an instant attraction to me. I don’t know why, but I only feel attracted to girls who are thick, taller than me, dominant, and stronger than me. I’m a petite girl (5’0 and 97 pounds), so it isn’t hard to find a girl that’s my type. I don’t know why, but something part of my stupid brain goes “holy shit yes” when I’m around girls like that. The thought of her manhandling me and pinning my wrists down, choking me (not to death or passing out), and pulling my hair makes me feel like I’m melting. Should I be worried? Is this weird? Am I weird for this?

Female, mid-20s. Almost getting married with the man of my dreams, totally in love and complete with him. We are so well fine. Here's the catch: I'd had sex only with him. No other, nothing. I realized he'll be my only one after marriage. And lately I've been wondering and fantasizing about how it feels to be with another man. I'm not looking to BE with another man romantically, just to have the sexual experience-- to satisfy my cravings, I suppose. And I have found the boy with whom I want to have sex. I am totally sexually satisfied in my current relationship. The sex is great, and it gets better all the time. Oddly enough, I don't know why I feel this urge to do so. I guess I don't want to feel that way after getting married, I wouldn't like to spend my days thinking about wanting to have sex with another man. I have never cheated on a partner, and I would never cheat on my current lover. I'm already feeling guilty but my crave keeps getting bigger each time. What can I do about this? Should I tell him? What would you do in my position?

Like title says. My girlfriend and I (16) want to have sex with each other but are not sure if it’s too early in our relationship. We’ve been talking for 6 month but dating officially for 2. Will it ruin our relationship if we have sex this early? We are both virgins. We talk about how we want to have sex with each other a lot and both agreed that we want to but just the fact that we think it could ruin our relationship is stopping us.
