Been “playing” this for about a month. Feels good to respond to the people who sound like they’re going through similar struggles to what I went through in high school and my 20s and can offer some advice/uplifting words, but sometimes I go through the first 10 requests and I’m just like, “All of these people are in a…

You jest, but this place does help me with my sometimes very severe depression and anxiety. I have had complete strangers give me some kind words here for no reason other than to make me feel better and that's why I love most of you.
There’s enough of that out there already. Let us have our one place where people aren’t allowed to shit all over others’ life decisions.
A brief message, without context, can seem insulting. That’s why they specify *a letter*, rather than *an e-mail*.
I know the reporter who would normally be on this beat for the Mercury News, and he was on vacation last weekend, so the person filling in for him got the byline on the original story. I have never seen a reporter so upset to not have broken a story.
Children need to be a dealbreaker for relationships. Ideally, this is a topic you talk about when things start getting serious because you don’t want to be with someone for years only to find out their opinion on the matter is the total opposite of yours. I agree with Harris that you can’t just try out kids on a…
I was diagnosed with mets dec 31st last week, after eight years cancer free. I know I should feel sorry for her, but I’m just scared for myself
I already do. My student loans confirm this.
I think it’s more odd that you’re creeping on these people’s business.
Zelle through the banks cuts out all that social BS. Literally send from one bank to the other. I do it from my bank’s app (Wells Fargo).
Not all married couples merge their finances. Some people find it easier to keep things separate and Venmo each other for shared expenses. My wife and I did that until we bought a house (at which point it really did make sense to merge everything).
Abuse is exactly why people end up in situations like LW2. Love bombing, trauma bonding, gaslighting, it goes on and on. It really does sound so logical when you aren’t the one IN it. Its awful, she’s horrible, just leave. I wish it was that simple, if it was everyone in an abusive relationship would just leave.
I know when you’re not in a given relationship the objective frame of reference makes things look simpler than they are to the people involved...but holy shit, LW2
Letter writer 2 helped me think about something. To be clear, she is absolutely being abusive and manipulative, and his first step should be to cut all contact and seek therapy.
Where is that borderline between labeling your significant other as “crazy” and being actually emotionally abusive?
As a long term diagnosed sufferer of MDO, this all the way. Say it louder for the ones in the back. One of the reasons that depression is so bad is because it’s almost a lifetime struggle and it almost never affects two people the same. There are some folks who ‘beat’ it and go the rest of their lives without ever…
I haven’t played this game, but just wanted to say you don’t need to apologize for your english. Your writing is better than most native english speakers.
I saw a lot of myself in that first letter. I was in a relationship with a girl for over four years (after we had dated previously for almost a year, broken up, then gotten back together a year later), but I had definitely checked out of that relationship before she had. After we broke up I was ready to date again only…
Presumably, to explore an interactive narrative.
