I ABSOLUTELY cannot have that. I can meet with a counsellor and request to change it but they are A holes and won't make that change ( speaking from experience). I need to give a solid reason for not being able to take evening classes ( 2- 8 pm).

I have bruises on my ankles and feet from slamming into things at night, and because I have shitty balance even in daylight (dyspraxia), I rely on horizon perception to keep upright. This obviously disappears in pitch blackness, so I don't even know if I am standing straight or not, and can actually fall over.

2,111 | apvxdi_egbqwoq | null | egbqwoq | Cross posting for some exposure, don't really use reddit that much.
This is a bit of a weird situation, and one that is stupid but kind of hurts a little.
Backstory.
I was pretty ugly growing up. Not your "oh, you just lack confidence" sort of situation, but like, actually a pretty shit draw in the genetic lottery. I have kids who blurt out "mom what's wrong with his face" to me these days still. I don't let it get to me since it doesn't matter.
That said, it didn't really affect me growing up that much. I knew it early on, and instead I played the class clown, and was really outgoing.
Throughout high school I started lifting, and I'm actually quite built. It's just, the face is a huge turn off.
As for dating, I never really had much luck. I was always "that guy friend", that all the girls wanted. I listen, I'm compassionate I think.
Anyways, I have a girlfriend now. She loves me for who I am and I honestly could see a future with her.
She got her wisdom teeth removed last weekend. I was there with her, and she was talking with the nurse about her life goals and whatnot. She was pretty sedated and it was quite funny to be there. The nurse beckoned me over for something, and she mentioned to my gf that "you have a handsome boyfriend".
I knew she was being kind, but then my gf responded with something like this:
GF: "Oh stop, you know he's not a looker at all but he's the kindest most caring person in the world".
Nurse: "that's not true, he seems like both!"
GF: "he is ugggggly, wait until you see him".
I've never let it affect me until then. I tuned out after hearing that. It really fucking stings.
Should I just forget about this, or do I talk about this with her? Is this a stupid thing to get hung up over or what? Like I get it. I know I'm not the best looking person in the world up in the face area but still.

At first being 8 years old i thought this is how people act. I was uncomfortable with it but moved on. On my 9th birthday, he raped me for the first time after sexually assaulting me for months, days on end. He took me under the trampoline in the back garden and I remember my parents catching him doing it and he got away with it. I never told anyone after that. He continued to touch me and rape me, he would do it whenever he got the chance. I remember when I was 11 I thought i was pregnant after he didn’t use protection, I wasn’t but I just remember how i would sit in the toilet sobbing begging my period to come so that i knew i wasn’t. It continued to happen up until i was 16. The last time it happened is the time i often get flashbacks about. he had just had his girlfriend over and it hadn’t happened since he got a girlfriend. He made me get in the car and promised he wouldn’t do anything and told be he would get us Mcdonald’s. My dumbass said yes, but obviously we didn’t go. no. he took me to a secluded area and raped me in his car and took me home. I remember scrubbing myself so many times to the point i was bleeding. I was sobbing in my bedroom and needed help. I couldn’t do anything nor could i tell anyone.

2,093 | bjmmu9_em9ryrz | null | em9ryrz | So, I’m 18 weeks pregnant and living out of state with my fiancé. My mom is over the moon about getting her first grandbaby.
My mom and I are best friends and always have been, she’s the best mother anyone could want and I hope I’m half as good to my baby as she is to me.
My problem is, both of my parents smoke heavily and smoke inside their house. I don’t want my baby to be around smoke/smoking like I was when I was young. So I told her that if she wants baby to stay at her house, she has until baby’s born to stop smoking inside and get her house aired out.

To get her house to stop basically leaking cigarette smell (and all the goodies that entails) would be quite the undertaking assuming she quits. Shellac based primer for the walls (it seals it in), deep cleaning of carpets and fabric based stuff. Third hand smoke is something you'll want to research if you haven't already."

16 | 1co87jb_l3fdbfz | null | l3fdbfz | My husband (M 26) and I (F 27) have been married since last November after being together for 3 years. Last night, I caught him after he lied to me about telling his coworker at his new job that he was married. So a little backstory….
My husband started this new job last month and got really along with this coworker. They became friends right away, they talked about everything to get to know each other and his coworker told him that he had a girlfriend and showed my husband a picture of them together that he had as his wallpaper on his phone. My husband and I tell each other everything . When he came home from work that day he told me about his coworkers and how similar they are etc., mentioning that he has a girlfriend, and then he let me know that he told his coworker that he was married and showed him a picture of me (mind you, I didn’t even ask him if he told his coworker about me, he is the one who voluntarily said that). This conversation happened about 2/3 weeks ago. Last night they were playing video games together while I was cooking dinner, so when I was done I went to tell him that dinner was ready. I guess his coworker heard my voice and asked who I was, and my husband replied and said" Oh my woman," and I heard his coworker asking “Oh, you have a girl, you never told me” and my husband replied and said, “Yes, because you never asked”. At first, I didn’t make it a big deal, but then I remembered that he told me that his coworker knew about it, about us being married, because he told me, so I confronted him about it he said he doesn’t know why he lied about that , then after apologized to me. I don’t know how to feel. It’s only been 6 months since we got married, and he is already lying to me. I’m so confused, my mind is all over the place. I don’t understand why he would lie about that.

1,015 | 163egwc_jy25xu4 | null | jy25xu4 | A few days ago, my son and only child asked me if he could sleep with me. He’s sort of affectionate for his age already (13), so I wasn’t concerned or anything. That night, he curled up as close as he could next to me and passed out. He stayed like that the entire night.
The next night, he asked again. When I asked him if something was wrong, he said no and that he just missed sleeping with me. He used to do it a lot when he was little, but that stopped when he was 7-8.
It’s been almost two weeks, and he’s stopped asking after the third day and has slept with me every night since. He’s even moved his phone charger and a book he’s reading to the bedside table. (His mom isn’t in the picture, so he took what used to be her side of the bed.)
He’ll still hang out and play video games in his room, but when it’s time for bed, he’s in my bed on his phone, and as soon as the lights go out, he’s all over me.
Don’t get me wrong; I’m not complaining. I’m sort of enjoying that he’s being affectionate, but would it be a cause for concern? He’s repeatedly told me nothing is wrong, but there’s still a gut feeling. Should I just drop it and let him continue?
I’ve thought about asking if he wants to talk to a consoler, but don’t want to embarrass him or make him feel like I don’t want him in there. I also don’t wanna push him out if I don’t need to, or even let him stay and it end up not being good for him either. Maybe I’m looking too far into it and just being paranoid.

This is my first post, so sorry abt formatting, on mobile.
So I (20 F) and my boyfriend (28 m) just finished game of thrones, we got really into it and binged it in a month, but my boyfriend has randomly started calling my cootchie Cersei and now it’s all the time. Is Cersei hungry for the D, how is Cersei today, I’m gonna f$ck Cersei later. And he does it everywhere. Yesterday we were at the grocery store and he said out loud that he was gonna “play with Cersei when we get home.” I find it to be a major turn off and have told him that but he won’t stop doing it. It makes me incredibly uncomfortable and I have this feeling he’s gonna rename it after whatever show we get into next. How to I get him to stop? I’ve tried calling his d!!k Tyrian and he didn’t care. —Cersei is the evil queen and Tyrian is a dwarf in case you haven’t watched game of thrones—
Edit: wow I wasn’t expecting this to blow up so much, in trying to read all the comments and reply to as many as I can. Basically what I understand is that I need to stop the sex, have a serious conversation with him, and somehow make him less old.
Update: thanks for all of the advice. I sat him down when he got home and I had a serious conversation with him about boundaries and what exactly I didn’t like about it. He did agree to stop but I expect him to slip up a few times since he’s gotten in the habit of doing it. All in all everything worked out.
Edit: let me make this very clear, he didn’t go after a 17 year old. We worked together and my manager was a lesbian who had the hots for me, so she would ask him leading questions, I.e. would you bend her over and slap her ass, don’t you think those titties are juicy, ect. Then she’d relay what he’d said to me. Basically living vicariously through us. I went after him, not the other way around.

1,601 | ogp2pg_h4kuv7e | null | h4kuv7e | My bf of 3 years and I have been going through a rough patch the last few month. We were working on it. Today I saw an Instagram message on his phone from what I thought was a guy. Turns out it wasn’t it was a girl.
a girl who he’s been talking to for months. Calling her baby. Driving an hour to pick her up. Missing work to go out with her. Sending voice messages to her.
he sees nothing wrong with it.
I feel like shit knowing for at least the past two months I’ve been here not knowing. How tf do I know he’s not fucking her.
he lives at my house rent free, refuses to help with anything and while we were going through the rough patch I told him do not entertain other girls which make sense since we still live together and he insists we still sleep in the same bed, etc.
he says it isn't cheating and he still loves me. At this point I’m beyond done. It isn’t the first time he’s done something like this but it’s the first time he’s actually met up with a girl.
I’m upset and hurt and idek what to do. There’s no coming back from this.
EDIT: I am 21F he is 22M
I’d like to drop his @ but I won’t | I can’t even cry I’m so mad | ogp2pg | [

"value": "I've seen your comments that you're breaking up with him. Good, you deserve better. If he insists that he's been faithful again, you can let him know that cheating isn't just sleeping with other people, it's acting behind their back. It's boundaries not being respected. You said not to make friends with new women and spend time with them while you and him were trying to fix things. That is a simple and understandable rule, which he chose to ignore. So even if he really is just friends with this woman, spending time with her under these circumstances is unfaithful of him. I've also seen you say you're going to reach out to her to confront her about her role in all this. I would like to put forward the possibility that she doesn't know you exist, or doesn't know your current boundaries in your relationship. Definitely still reach out to her, but perhaps keep in mind that she may also be a victim. I'm sorry for what you're going through. But you sound like a bad ass, so you got this <3"

1,400 | 14znb1j_jrz7s3w | null | jrz7s3w | I (22F) recently went to visit one of my closest friends from childhood (24F) and her kids (5M and 3F). Important to the story, I am a type 1 diabetic. Typically I am always prepared having insulin with me and glucose tablets or other snacks. However, on this particular day, I had what I can only describe as the travel day from hell. After several switches to my itinerary, I ended up at my friends house very early in the morning, and although I had enough insulin, I had run out of glucose tablets and snacks.
This wouldn’t normally be too much of an issue, as I could buy more once stores opened later in the morning. However, it got to a point where my blood sugar was running low. And not just a normal low, a “I’m not entirely sure how I’m still conscious” low. So, I explained the situation to my friend and asked her if she had any carbs or sugary snacks to get me back up. Ever since we were teenagers, this friend has been very invested in diet culture, and has had various seemingly arbitrary rules surrounding food. One of these involved snacking. As it was early in the morning, she said that in her house they don’t eat any sugar until noon, and the snack cabinet can’t be opened until after dinner. She said that if she allowed me to have a snack, it would undermine her parenting and set a bad example for her children. I, despite how horrible I was feeling, did my best to explain that this could very quickly turn into a medical emergency if I wasn’t able to get my sugar back up. She didn’t budge, and went as far as standing in her kitchen doorway so that I couldn’t go in to get anything.
As I was getting very nervous about the situation, I decided arguing with her was pointless, and I called an ambulance. I’m definitely OK now, the paramedics were able to bring my sugar back up without even having to go to the hospital. Once I felt ok, I first went to the store to stock up on snacks in case this happens again. Then I took my things to a hotel, and ignored any of my friend’s attempts to contact me. Part of me really wants to end the friendship. Although I recognize that her feelings towards food are partly due to her being absorbed in diet culture, and I feel really bad about that, I don’t think I can excuse her blatant disregard for my health, especially because it would’ve been such an easy solution on her part to avoid needing an ambulance. One text that she did send me was a sort of “apology” but it was kind of backhanded. It was more of a “I’m sorry my lifestyle and house rules don’t align with your needs,” and that really rubbed me the wrong way.
Should I end our friendship over this? She’s been a great friend of mine for almost a decade, and I recognize that it was my responsibility to manage my diabetes. Part of me thinks we could remain friends, as long as I don’t put myself in a position where I need to rely on her for things like this, but another part of me questions why I’d even bother after this.
UPDATE: I received an apology from her tonight. She originally texted, asking if I was ok to talk, and saying she understood if I didn’t want to. She did allow me vent my frustration and confusion without interrupting, and then we talked for a really long time. Ultimately she said (I should note that I was really looking for some explanation or closure because I couldn’t understand how this happened, and I made that clear to her) that she didn’t realize how dangerous it was, that she assumed in an emergency I would “look sicker,” and assumed that my anxiety and the long travel day were causing me to feel worse, so she didn’t register the urgency. She said she had simply been fed up with her kids asking about snacks recently, so she was so focused on not bringing that upon herself that day. After her talk with the paramedics (which was apparently far more harsh and brutally honest than I realized, but I do think justified), she did realize what happened, and admitted in her own words that she was “so hardheaded that I didn’t think you dying was a real option”. She acknowledged that her texts and actions were wrong, and promised to educate herself more, and to take my word for it in the future if I needed anything. While it did come across as fairly genuine, I basically let her know that I’d need some time, and that I’m not sure if we’d be able to have the same relationship we had in the past, but that I’d think on it. She understood, so at the very least if it ends, this friendship ended on a civil note. I really appreciate everyone’s advice, and just allowing me to work through this and try to process this. I’ve definitely learned a lot about myself, and my people pleasing tendencies through this, so some self reflection is definitely needed on my end before moving forward.
UPDATE 2: for those wondering about the ambulance bill, and/or any type of legal action, I didn’t bring it up with her and I really don’t plan to. Even though I understand where this is coming from, I can’t in good conscience ask her to do that. And that’s not even necessarily for her sake, it’s because I’m in a much better position financially, and especially for the sake of those kids I don’t think it’s worth it. They’re a single income household, and her husband makes about the same amount of money that I do, if not less. He is using that income to support a family of 4, and I know they’re struggling, whereas I’m splitting bills with my fiancé. Even if I shouldn’t feel this way, it would just make me feel guilty and her paying for it wouldn’t necessarily make me feel any better about the situation. | Should I end a decade long friendship after my friend forced me to call an ambulance? | 14znb1j | [

1,729 | a9h65f_ecjlmx8 | null | ecjlmx8 | Backstory:
My parents wanted me and my brother to stay at their house over night for Xmas eve. My girlfriend has trouble sleeping alone so I decided to take her with me for the night.
Now, my GF and my brother had had a weird relationship a while back and he was manipulative enough that she developed some strange tendencies about him, similar to that of an abusive relationship.
The Event: My GF and I are going to sleep. I pass out and wake up 15 minutes later to the sound of distant moaning. I get out of bed and the hair stands up on the back of my neck as I realize that my GF is not in my room. I sneak out into the hallway and I hear my GF giggling and laughing from my brothers room. I hear her whisper “be careful”.
I march straight into my brothers room where I find my brother pretending to be asleep (but still obviously breathing heavily) and my GF laying next to him. She still has her clothes on and she acts like nothing is going on but she’s being a little defensive.
I ask her what happened and she eventually admits that he had kissed her. She also later admits that she was moaning because he was touching her. She started off saying that she stopped him as soon as she could and that she only went in there to talk to him. I brought up that she could have left a lot sooner and that I could hear her moaning and she admired that she didn’t intend for things to get sexual, but she did let it happen because she still had feelings for him.
GF drove back home in the middle of the night and I soon did the same, sending my parents a quick heads up explaining why I left.
Present:
Now I’m getting texts from both my parents saying that they are sad that I left and that family should stick together. My mom said that she’s sorry I got caught up between my brother and GF which makes me feel like she didn’t respect my relationship with her and that it was always more about her and y brother.
They want me to hear my brothers side of the story. He has a history of using women and my parents usually respond with “he’s just not a relationship guy” even though he uses obvious manipulation tactics.
I really thought my parents would have my back on this one. Why does it feel like they care less about my situation and just want me to forgive my brother so we can have a normal Christmas?
What do I do?!
Update: Turns out my brother never made a move and she was the one trying to start shit. We’ve been together for almost a year now and I had no idea she was manipulating me the whole time. Feels like a mind-fucky plot twist at the end of a movie. My brain is inside out.
Final update:
I am absolutely dumping my GF. I recommended that she get psychiatric help because she shows some big signs of BPD. However, I also made it clear that what she did was unforgivable. No coming back from that.
It’s also apparent that both the GF and my brother were lying about what actually happened. There’s no reason for her to confess to messing around with him if it didn’t happen; odds are, my brother is lying about being innocent in the matter.
For my family’s sake, I will try to get along with him on holidays, but I absolutely do not trust him.
Thank you all for your support. It really means a lot to me. I never would have thought that this could happen to me and it’s honestly a bit surreal.
Also my now-ex got me a super nice espresso machine for Christmas and I sure as hell intend on taking it with me. | Girlfriend cheated on me with my brother last night. Parents are mad at me for leaving before Xmas. | a9h65f | [

Tl;dr: 50 year old woman is squatting in my (26F) apartment and has locked my dog in her bedroom to antagonize me. She has her own house and is just taking advantage of Tenancy Laws. She only comes to my apartment once every 2 weeks to antagonize me because she is mad at my father. My father has the keys to her house. I CANNOT just change the locks that will likely have very serious legal ramifications.
I’ve posted in other subreddits about this and someone suggested I post here. I’ve copied and pasted with some edits.
I live in a three bedroom apartment. There’s an en-suite situation with a bedroom, Kitchenette and bathroom. A door connects this half of the apartment with the other half which has 2 bedrooms a bathroom and kitchen. I have lived here for 2 years and the entire apartment is leased to me. My dad is the property manager/landlord(?) and my grandmother owns the house.
My dad asked me if I could let a friend of a friend stay in one of the bedrooms while he did construction work on her bathroom. This woman owns a house and was only supposed to stay with me for two weeks. My father did not kick her out before 30 days and she has now established tenancy in my apartment.
She has become increasingly hostile and has tried to limit my access to common areas. She gets mad when I use the kitchen (the en-suite does not have a stove or counter space) and she gets mad when I use the washer or try to access the utilities to get heat.
Yesterday she got mad that I was filling the boiler with water and called my dog into her bedroom while I wasn’t paying attention. I of course got very upset but I let my anger get the best of me and called her all sorts of nasty names and told her she deserved to slap in the face for that. She threatened to kill me.
The police were called and she had a recording of our conversation but of course the part where she brought my dog into her room and threatened to kill me wasnt on the recording. The cops took her side and told me I was out of line for the way I talked to her. They told me I was legally the landlord because I manage the utilities and I could be arrested for harraasing a tenant.
The police had to be called weeks ago after she threatened me for using MY washer. She lied and told them I was snooping in her bedroom and trespassing and entering her space without permission. I wanted to install cameras but the officers said this would be an invasion of her privacy cause the cameras would capture her bedroom door.
I feel very helpless. This is my apartment and now officers are telling me I need to give her notice when I want to use my kitchen and washer and turn on the heat. She is literally a parasite and is not paying rent. She moved an 18 year old woman into the third bedroom. I got upset and told her this was unacceptable because the house simply does not have resources for so many people.
I live in NYC and the laws here gives tenants a lot of rights. She does not need to stay here thirty days in a row but once she has 30 days access to a living space that establishes tenancy regardless of if she’s paying rent, has her own home, or has a lease. Changing the locks WILL get me arrested. That is a self-help eviction and is illegal in most states.
I am working on consulting with a lawyer for free. In the mean time any tips would be appreciated.
EDIT: just to be clear the past few times she has locked my dog in her room it was for a short period of time. I picked the lock and retrieved my dog. My dog is currently out of the home and safe. I bought cameras that should be arriving tomorrow and will install them in the common areas. I’m a law student so I reached out to my Dean and housing professor to hopefully get some advice. A few commenters and friends have offered to come over for a week long party so I will most definitely be doing that.

She threatened to kill me. \n\nThe police were called and she had a recording of our conversation but of course the part where she brought my dog into her room and threatened to kill me wasnt on the recording. The cops took her side and told me I was out of line for the way I talked to her. They told me I was legally the landlord because I manage the utilities and I could be arrested for harraasing a tenant. \n\nThe police had to be called weeks ago after she threatened me for using MY washer. She lied and told them I was snooping in her bedroom and trespassing and entering her space without permission. I wanted to install cameras but the officers said this would be an invasion of her privacy cause the cameras would capture her bedroom door. \n\nI feel very helpless. This is my apartment and now officers are telling me I need to give her notice when I want to use my kitchen and washer and turn on the heat. She is literally a parasite and is not paying rent. She moved an 18 year old woman into the third bedroom. I got upset and told her this was unacceptable because the house simply does not have resources for so many people.\n\nI live in NYC and the laws here gives tenants a lot of rights. She does not need to stay here thirty days in a row but once she has 30 days access to a living space that establishes tenancy regardless of if she’s paying rent, has her own home, or has a lease. Changing the locks WILL get me arrested. That is a self-help eviction and is illegal in most states. \n\nI am working on consulting with a lawyer for free. In the mean time any tips would be appreciated.\n\nEDIT: just to be clear the past few times she has locked my dog in her room it was for a short period of time. I picked the lock and retrieved my dog. My dog is currently out of the home and safe. I bought cameras that should be arriving tomorrow and will install them in the common areas. I’m a law student so I reached out to my Dean and housing professor to hopefully get some advice. A few commenters and friends have offered to come over for a week long party so I will most definitely be doing that. Thanks everyone! "

18 | 1ch3e80_l21w1ax | null | l21w1ax | Generally speaking, people treat me like I don't know anything. They explain even the most basic things to me, but whenever I try to emphasize that I already know, it either gets brushed off or people act like I'm being difficult.
Some examples:
\- I was dividing up my laundry to put in the wash, and this person said, "be sure you don't put that red shirt in with the whites!" like... duh, of course I'm not going to do that?
\- I had someone I trained at work try to tell me how to do something I trained her to do.
\- My ex, who has only ever written school papers, tried to tell me how writing works... when I was a professional writer.
And so on and so forth.
I don't know why this happens, let alone so frequently. Could it be something about the way I present myself? Maybe the way I talk?

But damn I am loving quarantine. My dream is to literally wake up and stay stuck in my room, not just my house, but MY room the whole day, only leaving to get some food and to use the bathroom. I’m just living like any other day I used to have except walking to classes. I’m just at my laptop the whole day doing work and then watching anime, then playing some animal crossing.
But when I tell my friends that I’m enjoying quarantine, they call me a horrible person and that people are dying. Of course I know people are dying, but I was simply telling them that I’m enjoying this lifestyle of being in my room all day. So after they tell me that I just decide to shut up and listen to them complain that they want quarantine to end so that they can go back to college and party with their college friends. .

1,505 | 16278i4_jxvyywr | null | jxvyywr | So there's this girl (kinda immature), who got out of a toxic teenage relationship recently and praises me for helping her do so.
She is in a bad phase dealing with the breakup. Recently she told me she has this huge amount of money(cash) and doesn't know what to do with it. Apparently she had 'saved' it in case she needed to run away with her guy, and since her guy earns minimum wage it'll be helpful (smh).
I don't know how she has hold of that kind of money, but i dont think its through illegal means. She says she got it through lottery which is obviously a lie. My best bet would be that she stole it from her own house (they are loaded and she is smart that ways). Also, she claims she has increased the sum by loaning it to people and getting interests.
Anyways, I don't know what to do know. She insists me on keeping the money until she is back to her senses, but I dont want to get involved directly.

861 | 1bc6655_kuf9oqy | null | kuf9oqy | We (27M 27F) have been dating for over 9 months now and I just found out that she has been lying to me about her daughter. I haven't told her about this yet because I don't want to confront her with high emotions. What do I do?
When we started dating I made sure that we establish what we want in this relationship and what we don't, especially about raising a family in the future. I told her am not yet ready emotionally and financially now but the idea of having children someday is welcome.
She always tells me stories of her older sister having a 4yo kid and how difficult it was to make her sisters ex cooperate with visitation and financial matters. Me being her partner, I always give her my best and honest opinion about what her sister could do about the situation. She also regularly sends me pictures and clips of her niece and I truly adore this kid, I even gave her a nice gift last Christmas.
A couple of months in being together, I started to notice irregularities like how she doesnt always have money to spend for our dates, not being available for certain days of the week, etc. I honestly did not mind since I understand that she may still have responsibilities at home.
Then a week ago I randomly borrowed her phone and saw her ex's name on top of her search bar. I did not ask her about it but my mind is already throwing a lot of questions. Why? Do they still communicate with each other?
Today I finally decided to browse through her ex's profile and found pictures of her 4yo niece with her ex as the profile photo. Went to the comments and saw comments saying "congratulations [ex] & [gf]!". That's when I realized she has been lying to me about her sister. All the parenting difficulties she shared was hers. That's why her niece has been calling her mommy all this time.
I am totally furious right now. Please tell me what to do.

I met this kid while playing in a group with randoms on zero build he was funny so I accepted his freind request. We've been playing together for a few months now & he knows I'm 25 I've made it very obvious and I've said it multiple times although I look and sound very young due to a thyroid issue I am still in fact 25. Anyways we were playing today and he told me he has a secret he asked me to be his girlfriend. I outright rejected his as nicely as I could saying "well I'm 25 so I'm alot older than you so I don't think that'd work." He then lied and and say he's going to be like 26 in 2 months. I then tried to come up with another excuse saying " well we live so far away from each other" idk where he lives but I know his timezone is like 2 or 3 hours behind from mine. He kept making up excuses. We kept playing and then he says "well I could invite you to a party and we can just play like we usually do, do you accept?" I didn't think he was still asking about me being his gf so I said "sure" then I heard him whispering to himself about how "it worked" or something like that. Then before he went offline he said " bye I love you" I was so taken aback I didn't even say anything I just went offline. I'm not sure what to do in this predicament. I want to keep playing with my fortnite buddy but I don't want to break his little heart. I also don't want to date him because he's obviously way younger than me and that's just weird I'm not some weirdo who dates minors. I get the impression that he thinks I'm lying about my age since I sound so young and I play ALOT of video games. What do I do???
Update: thanks for your advice everyone I've decided I'm going to unfreind him. The reason why I didn't initially block/unfreind him is because I introduced him to my cousin a while ago they're about the same age & now they're freinds. I figured it would be weird to put my cousin in the middle of all this. I also didn't want to crush the little guy's heart, but I think the best way moving forwards is to just unfreind him

Now a few months later, I have gotten a bit better, but she is in a much harder situation to get out of. She has gotten worse if anything. Everyday I wake up too a stream of detailed messages about how she can't go on anymore, and how awful things are. It just gets tiring.
Don't get me wrong, I want help for her, it's just that I can't be that help. She has a therapist, but from what she describes he doesn't sound very helpful. She needs a new therapist or to go to a rehab facility for a few months. I just feel like I will regress and go back to where I was before if she keeps sending me these messages everyday.
Any advice on how to tell her this in a constructive manner, that won't result in her hurting herself? I am really worried for her.

Hello, I want to keep this as anonymous as possible but I need help. I'm scared and don't know what to do.
I recently got married. We're newlyweds, so to save money, plus a difficult family situation, we decided to live with my husband's small family and take care of his sibling. It's currently four of us in the house, my husband, his sibling, my father in law and me, his mother is unable to be here currently.
I've been here for a few months and my father in law has given me no reason to feel unsafe directly, my fiancé's sibling has not had the same experience . On our honeymoon they had to leave the house because my fatyer in law asked if they could stay in the same bed and room as him to keep an eye on them as he rubbed their shoulders. This raised alarms and they immediately left to a cousins house until we returned. Since then we have never left them alone on the off chance of something happening.
After providing that context, here is what just happened. I was using the restroom and cleaning myself up, the room is a small rectangle and the front of the door is a sink, on the right is the toilet and next to it is the tub/shower. But next to the sink at hip level, is a hole in the wall, its from the door knob hitting it and it was never repaired. As I was using the restroom and I was in there for a while on the seat, checking my thighs and cleaning up to spend time with my husband. I hear a lot of noise and the sounds of stuff dropping in the room next to the restroom and I truly thought nothing of it. A few more minutes pass, I'm just about ready to leave the restroom and I get this weird feeling, Im looking around the restroom and just nothing. I've never felt compelled to before, but in that moment I grabbed my phone and flashed the light at the hole in the wall, just nothing. I get up and put my pants and stuff back on and as I'm about to wash my hands I get the urge to look at the hole again, I crouch down and flash my light into it and I clearly see my father in law staring into the hole. He immediately drops down and I hear scrambling in his bedroom. I loudly go "oh my god". My heart is at my fucking feet and I feel so scared. How long and how often has he done this?? The hole leads to his room and he can clearly see us using the restroom, changing, showering?? My husband's sibling is a young and blossoming teen, he has displayed weird behavior towards them before. Has he been watching them for years?? I'm so scared and so sick. I ran to my bedroom and locked our door and made sure his siblings door is locked as well. My husband is asleep next to me and I do not know how to bring this up to him?? I do not know how I can bear to see this man again. I cannot stop trembling, I don't even know where to begin.
I'm sorry I know this was lengthy, I just feel like I need to paint a clear picture | My Father In-Law is most definitely a creep | 1cmx03n | [

I was using the restroom and cleaning myself up, the room is a small rectangle and the front of the door is a sink, on the right is the toilet and next to it is the tub/shower. But next to the sink at hip level, is a hole in the wall, its from the door knob hitting it and it was never repaired. As I was using the restroom and I was in there for a while on the seat, checking my thighs and cleaning up to spend time with my husband. I hear a lot of noise and the sounds of stuff dropping in the room next to the restroom and I truly thought nothing of it. A few more minutes pass, I'm just about ready to leave the restroom and I get this weird feeling, Im looking around the restroom and just nothing. I've never felt compelled to before, but in that moment I grabbed my phone and flashed the light at the hole in the wall, just nothing. I get up and put my pants and stuff back on and as I'm about to wash my hands I get the urge to look at the hole again, I crouch down and flash my light into it and I clearly see my father in law staring into the hole. He immediately drops down and I hear scrambling in his bedroom. I loudly go \"oh my god\". My heart is at my fucking feet and I feel so scared. How long and how often has he done this?? The hole leads to his room and he can clearly see us using the restroom, changing, showering?? My husband's sibling is a young and blossoming teen, he has displayed weird behavior towards them before. Has he been watching them for years?? I'm so scared and so sick. I ran to my bedroom and locked our door and made sure his siblings door is locked as well. My husband is asleep next to me and I do not know how to bring this up to him?? I do not know how I can bear to see this man again. I cannot stop trembling, I don't even know where to begin. \n\nI'm sorry I know this was lengthy, I just feel like I need to paint a clear picture "

6 | 1c6ypsr_l04i4fv | null | l04i4fv | I am about to take admission into a coaching in Kota, India for medical entrance exam. They have morning and evening classes. Girls are given priority for morning classes and I am a dude, so I think there's a 80% chance I get evening classes.
I ABSOLUTELY cannot have that. I can meet with a counsellor and request to change it but they are A holes and won't make that change ( speaking from experience). I need to give a solid reason for not being able to take evening classes ( 2- 8 pm).
I am thinking I fake night blindness so I have an excuse to not be able to go back to my hostel in the dark. My mum is a General Physician if that helps. She can probably make a prescription or something. How do I do this? Is there any other ways I could get them to assign me morning classes (pissdiscs and liquid ass won't help).

If you Google you ll get loads of diseases. but make sure you give it to only the coaching classes and not officially to any institute else you ll end up in jail for faking disability. For example glaucoma happened to a very young person I know , the person is under 30. They have a vision up to about 1 meter. they can't even see the staircase properly. Obviously don't lie at this level, find something milder. Also I hope you aren't doing this just to be in a batch with girls. You fake illness/disability, you have to stick to it until you are in coaching. You can't be seen roaming around late at night, boasting to your friends or maybe even go for cinema based on what you say."

1,166 | 15c1icu_jttycc7 | null | jttycc7 | My wife and I have been together for 11 years, married for 3. Have a 20 months old son. We’ve been through hell and back. I trust her with my life. Never had to worry about anything like this. Her grandmother, mother, sister, and sisters friend went on a cruise. Carnival dream, 6 day cruise. Her mom hasn’t ever had anything to do with her, and she paid for her to go so I said she needs this, it will be good for her. I also told her I just worry about her because there are a lot of people on the cruise. She told me don’t worry, I’m just going to be with my family. I trust her. Did.
My son and I were missing her so I got her MacBook. It’s connected to her phones cloud. I see the pictures she is taking and I come across a screen shot of someone asking her on a date. She says “is this a date? 😏” he said “maybe” and that’s was about all I could see. It was time for bed for my son. I read him a book and lay him down.
My heart is racing, my mind is spinning. I look into the messages. Went to my social media platforms to see what messaging system they were on. Looked just like instagram. So naturally to investigate, since I’m seeing someone is asking my wife to a date I look into it. Luckily I have her mac and all her passwords are saved. Easy. I went to instagram, logged in and almost immediately started crying. I’m a fireman, it takes a lot to make me cry. This woman is my world, never have I ever had to worry about her. She starts saying stuff like “I need to u”, “I miss you”, “can I see you baby”. The guy is an employee on the ship. “Meet me on deck 5 in the bathroom”. She says “have you ever done this before”, “he says no”, then next i see her saying “come to the club” “I wanna dance on you baby”, he got off late and wanted to meet her in her room and this is all that was said by my wife. “ You're so handsome and charming. I hope you know that
Thank you for taking care of me
at the bar
Why am I falling so hard for you”
He is saying the same stuff “ I think I love you” she starts regretting it saying “I’m stupid I’m married” he says “it’s ok” then she says this. THIS BROKE SOMETHING IN ME. “I’m willing to leave my husband for you, you mean something to me”.
So I call her, and she answers almost immediately. I can hear a lot of people so she goes to the side of the boat and I can hear some other girls saying put it on speaker and I said don’t put the damn phone on speaker I want to speak to my wife. I could tell she left it on speaker. I’m balling.. I sound terrible but I say “how could you do this to me” she says “do what” I say “ you are cheating on me”. Then she gets very quiet. I go back to instagram and she deleted the conversation. Luckily I took screen shots of everything. I also blocked this guy and changed her password. Sounds crazy but I’m protecting her as much as I can from where I am. So she finally starts talking and give me a simple inconsiderate “sorry” and I said “what do you mean ..sorry.. do you even care?” She says “I gotta go…” and I said “what? Why are you doing this to me” and she hung up. At this point I am broken, since then I have no emotion, not able to function, my whole world has flipped upside down.
Later she calls me, she is very drunk and crying saying “I fucked it, I drank too much. And let something like this happen.” I am silent and she says “hello” and I say “what am I supposed to say, it’s ok?.. so are you leaving me? I think I need to start packing your things.. I don’t know what to do. You are supposed to stay with me through sickness and health.” Again she said “I’m so sorry” and I said “who is this man and what did y’all do” she said “we kissed and hugged” I don’t know if I can believe her. I said “I gotta go call me in the morning when you are sober.
I didn’t sleep all night, I balled my eyes out like a baby. My teeth are sore from biting my pillows so hard trying not to wake my son, and my head is killing me from crying so hard. It’s 9 a.m. and 10 a.m. where she is. I finally call and she answers, I said “what happened between you two” she said “we only kissed and hugged” I said “my trust in you is broken, I’m broken, I don’t know if I can believe you.” From here on it’s been all sorry’s from her. I still love her. I can’t not love her, she was the first girl I kissed. My first everything with love. I’ve dedicated my life to her, I’m a Christian man. I pray for my family daily, I am a good man. Never had a ticket, never done any wrong. I would never hurt her, no woman could ever take me from her. Now I feel lost, with something in me missing. I can’t explain it. Something in me is gone, I can feel it.
I’m seeking advice. I can’t lose her. I can’t let my son live with us separate. What do I say and how do I go about this? I can’t even get mad at her, it’s not in me to be mean to her. I still love her, and she says she still loves me and does not want to lose me. I don’t know what to say to her, she is still on the cruise for 2 more days. Please, someone help me. My mind is fried, all I can think about is someone else with her in their arms. I can’t think straight enough to know what to do.

2,111 | apvxdi_egbxk9c | null | egbxk9c | Cross posting for some exposure, don't really use reddit that much.
This is a bit of a weird situation, and one that is stupid but kind of hurts a little.
Backstory.
I was pretty ugly growing up. Not your "oh, you just lack confidence" sort of situation, but like, actually a pretty shit draw in the genetic lottery. I have kids who blurt out "mom what's wrong with his face" to me these days still. I don't let it get to me since it doesn't matter.
That said, it didn't really affect me growing up that much. I knew it early on, and instead I played the class clown, and was really outgoing.
Throughout high school I started lifting, and I'm actually quite built. It's just, the face is a huge turn off.
As for dating, I never really had much luck. I was always "that guy friend", that all the girls wanted. I listen, I'm compassionate I think.
Anyways, I have a girlfriend now. She loves me for who I am and I honestly could see a future with her.
She got her wisdom teeth removed last weekend. I was there with her, and she was talking with the nurse about her life goals and whatnot. She was pretty sedated and it was quite funny to be there. The nurse beckoned me over for something, and she mentioned to my gf that "you have a handsome boyfriend".
I knew she was being kind, but then my gf responded with something like this:
GF: "Oh stop, you know he's not a looker at all but he's the kindest most caring person in the world".
Nurse: "that's not true, he seems like both!"
GF: "he is ugggggly, wait until you see him".
I've never let it affect me until then. I tuned out after hearing that. It really fucking stings.
Should I just forget about this, or do I talk about this with her? Is this a stupid thing to get hung up over or what? Like I get it. I know I'm not the best looking person in the world up in the face area but still.

You don't need to be handsome to be attractive. My SO and i are in our 30s and we start to notice each others wrinkles, they look beautiful to us, not because they are really beautiful but because they belong to the person that we love. I guess your GF finds you very attractive and if she finds you ugly too it just shows that she isn't shallow. She also isn't thinking about it much, i have a cousin whos whole body and face was badly burned, after a while you don't notice it anymore it is just the face of a person who gives you a warm feeling when you see it. Your emotions get connected to that face and how it actually looks is just not a factor in how much you like to see it. English is not my first language but i hope you get my point."

My parents at home just told me my aunt is coming to stay a few days, and I have to spare my room for her to use. I'm usually pretty chill about this, but here's the thing: That aunt is a **confirmed** carrier of Corona virus, yet shes coming here and my parents are okay with it...? WTF?
As to how exactly she's allowed to travel: she's **not.** This is Illegal and dangerous but it seems i have no say on the matter... my only hope is to avoid getting infected. I need help, what should I do with an infected person on the house?
// Update #1
Due to the amount of advices saying that I should report this, I really feel the need to now. I'm typing this as she's on a plane, on her way here, so avoiding that is no longer possible...
I will contact the local police department, they should be here before she arrives and I'm definitely getting into trouble... But if i think really hard about it, my parents caused this, not me. It's easier that way.
// Update #2
So... This escalated quickly. I called the non emergency line and told them a family member was coming to the house and they were a carrier of Corona. My city is on a lockdown since the growing cases of the last week so I expected the police to come over stay with us until aunt arrives, and they would tell us what to do. Not so...
Police arrived, took my parents for interrogation and one of them told me my aunt is being intercepted. Holy, fuck.
I'm alone in my house now, it's night, and looks like they're not gonna be here til tomorrow. I think updates will stop for now but for sure I won't be seeing aunt so soon. Might have been the right thing to do but I'm definitely screwed... In a month from now I might be here on the sub again asking how do I adapt to a new home, I'm 20 and I have a day job so my chances of getting kicked out after this are really high :(
Thank you for all the advice. No doubt, it was the best course of action.
// Post storm update #3
Aunt is being kept at the hospital, she indeed has the virus, and i don't know yet if shes gonna be fined for the trip or not, but I imagine she will : /
For those asking, she's not here to just visit, she came *because* of the symptoms. She wanted family contact cause she feared not having another chance (an over reaction, i know).
I haven't been kicked out, but parents are not talking to me. To those sending lovely messages saying I should already have my own house: I'm not rich, I pay for my own food and transport and the only things I get from this house are the roof and people to talk to during breakfast as I work during the day and study at night. I don't hate my parents, they're good people, just clueless when it comes to common sense sometimes.
So that's it, crisis averted. I'm not getting infected by this god awful virus and aunt should be ok in a week, back to her home to pay the debts. I'll try cooking some nice things and bringing some god news to the table more frequently so my parents forget about this episode, but thanks for all the support in the majority of the comments, good to know this went a lot smoother than hiding in my own house.

No doubt, it was the best course of action.\n\n// Post storm update #3\n\nAunt is being kept at the hospital, she indeed has the virus, and i don't know yet if shes gonna be fined for the trip or not, but I imagine she will : / \n\nFor those asking, she's not here to just visit, she came *because* of the symptoms. She wanted family contact cause she feared not having another chance (an over reaction, i know).\n\nI haven't been kicked out, but parents are not talking to me. To those sending lovely messages saying I should already have my own house: I'm not rich, I pay for my own food and transport and the only things I get from this house are the roof and people to talk to during breakfast as I work during the day and study at night. I don't hate my parents, they're good people, just clueless when it comes to common sense sometimes.\n\nSo that's it, crisis averted. I'm not getting infected by this god awful virus and aunt should be ok in a week, back to her home to pay the debts. I'll try cooking some nice things and bringing some god news to the table more frequently so my parents forget about this episode, but thanks for all the support in the majority of the comments, good to know this went a lot smoother than hiding in my own house. Cya in the next pandemic o/"

But my manager says it's to "learn how to do hard things sometimes you don't wanna do if the budget calls for cuts." I don't see this as a practical way to teach someone. I can't fire someone who doesn't deserve it in the slightest. What do I do?

"value": "Can you explain more about the situation? You mention budget cuts at the tail end of your inquiry. It sounds like a reduction of staff is required which makes this more of a lay off situation than a firing. Do you believe that there is another employee who should be let go instead? If so, then propose that to your boss. If not, then dismissing the well performing employee in question is a management task that must be done. While it is quite possible that your boss wants you to do it because she is shirking her duty or doesn't want the blow-back from the other employees, it is still a management task that you should learn to do for your own development. When you terminate this employee, be sure to follow your company's procedures. It should be fine to explain that you nonetheless admire their dedication, but be sure to check first."
