Trying to take my coffee will end in murder.

Showering helps me wake up in the morning, so yes, I usually shower every day. It's harder for me to feel "prepared" for the day if I skip or shower the night before. As for shampoo, I still wash my hair every day. What's weird, though, is that if I don't get my hair wet if I'm not going to shampoo, it ends up looking…

I've been told I look like Jenna Fischer before.

I'm on the same boat. I work in a library now after having retail jobs all throughout college and a call center job on top of that. I still get flustered when dealing with rude people. It's been an uphill struggle to learn to put my foot now, especially when it comes to the library.

Was your boyfriend's therapist part of the on-campus counseling from the student health department? It might be that most college campuses offer basic coping mechanisms for students on their own for the first time who haven't developed them yet. But now that your boyfriend knows what he needs, he'll have better luck…

Seriously. My head hair doesn't even grow that fast!

I'll never forget the moment I realized Little Red Corvette wasn't about a lady who just really liked driving her car fast. It's kind of unsung milestone of adolescence when you finally pick up on the innuendos of song lyrics.

I'd fall out of my chair if I tried that.

Wow, that's creepy. And I'm sorry your father didn't take it seriously. When I was still living at home, my dad brought to my attention that one of our neighbors would stare at me from his window while I was outside doing yard work. Now, I had no idea who this guy was, he'd never spoken to me, etc. Yet for some reason…

Took me a minute but...

This. It wasn't until I read The Gift of Fear in college that I became aware of how pervasive this narrative is.

I understand. It's just frustrating to think that this guy might think he's so cute by doing this, and just not GETTING IT, you know?

Ugh, that's awful and I'm so sorry your boyfriend doesn't get your feelings on this.

Yikes. I'm glad the police took it seriously and caught the guy. :(

I mean, even if he thought it was cute, once it's been made clear it wasn't going to happen and the messages aren't welcome, he's determined kept at it through two email address changes, the OP's relationship AND marriage. This behavior is super disrespectful at best. I'm angry at this creep on behalf of the OP.

When I was 13 I had a pretty rude awakening about the Internet. It was 1998 or so, and I mostly used AIM to chat with friends and only a few people had my screen name. Well, one day I was online and out of nowhere I got these creepy explicit messages from a 40-year-old dude, including him threatening to spank me if I…

It's up for me, but I've noticed the videos kind of freeze up, or the audio skips like a scratched CD.

That gif is the greatest thing I have ever seen.

I don't know if I have anything valuable to share, but I definitely feel you on the job hunt anxiety and lack of cash flow anxiety (two PT jobs here, and not enough hours at either). When I'm job hunting, I find it's best treat it like it's your job and devote a few hours each day to searching, resume revising, etc,…

"It is what it is." Why does this even need to be said? It seems like a phrase people use when they can't think of a more substantial response.
