you are a chill person and u keep saying chill things that everyone is appreciating

I think the first year of marriage is very stressful, even if you lived together before getting married, because all of a sudden you start thinking “what if it’s always like this?!” For instance, shortly after we married I realized that my husband never, ever, empties the small household wastebaskets into the big…

They're probably mostly checking to see if people with high clearances have a blackmail risk. That's a standard question in the investigations.

“I don’t like the concept of monogamy, but I DO like letting my wife believe I do so she’ll be home with a hot dinner waiting for me at night, keeping the house clean and parenting my children so I have plenty of time and mental space to obsess about what else I deserve out of life.”

“So eventually I came to the conclusion that I needed a side thing to be happy and signed up on Ashley Madison. I considered divorce but there really wasn’t massive personal discord. I mean, we don’t connect anymore, not in the same way, but we don’t hate each other. And ultimately the role we play together as parents…

seriously. if you’re bored in your marriage, maybe she is, too. maybe she would like other partners, too. and since he’s made it obvious that he’s going to step out whether she agrees to it or not, she also has the right to leave the marriage. he’s probably just afraid of losing all the things his wife does for him.

Yes! And think about how awkward it is to say no. No, I have decided for you that you can’t have me-time right now. It is an adult’s job to know if they are pulling their own weight (taking care of their parenting and household responsibilities) and when they need me-time and take me-time only when it is appropriate.…

To me, the asking is a problem. Your wife is not your mother and asking for “permission” at a time like this communicates that you’ve already thought this through and decided that you think it seems like a good idea - you just want to make sure she won’t be mad (because deep down, you suspect there’s something to be…

Mann explains the moment he realized he wasn’t pulling his weight around the house or with his son, Jupiter

Is there any chance that ‘Jupiter’ is just the nickname they use when referring to their son online? You know, so there’s a semblance of privacy for the child?

There is also the issue of placing a burden on siblings who did not have any chance to make a choice at all.

My biggest beef with my husband when we were in the throes of childrearing — he would “help” by doing things that didn’t need to be done right then. For example, we’re preparing for a family gathering and he helps by cleaning the garage. Then he gets mad when I get mad, because it’s not like he’s doing NOTHING.…

Yes, there is another body growing inside MY body. Mine. Over which I have complete and total power to do whatever the hell I please. Inside and out. If I don’t want it there, that growing foreign body is getting evicted.

Yes, but has this been an endemic and widespread problem in Ohio?

The way to address the gender imbalance problem is with gender equity, rather than placing restrictions on women’s access to reproductive health care. Similarly, I’m all for continued improvements and enlightenment re: attitudes toward and resources for people with disabilities. If we have a society where having a…

“Why are you having this abortion?”

Rosie didn’t just wake up one day and let the world know her daughter has a diagnosis and takes meds. Chelsea ran away and was missing for days. That means Chelsea’s height, weight, and lots of other personal information is going to get communicated to everyone who might know where she is. “17 year old minor who has a…

Yeah, I don’t think it says anything necessarily. I ran away several times as a teenager and if the police had asked, I’d have told them I’d prefer to stay in any one of the dodgy scenarios I’d put myself in. I was a “troubled” teen, but not abused.

I assure you that the comments for which Mr. Gremaud was censured were unprovoked. This is a fact uncontested by six members of the board. The discussion was not about teachers, students, farmers, or any other conjecture you may see on social media.
