Yep. Those come in writing, along with a clause that says if you quit within a year, you have to pay them back.

I've never posted in one of these before, and I hope everyone's having a fabulous Saturday night, and I don't know if this is the appropriate forum but I could use some help/advice/support I guess...is anyone on here in recovery/a friend of bills who has a few minutes to spare for a fellow person trying for sobriety…

Compared to garment sewing it's pretty easy. And the walking foot is your friend. Once you've tried it, you'll be a convert.

Feeling a weird envy tonight. I just found out that someone I had a very small crush on a few years ago, barely spoke to at the time, and haven’t spoken to or seen or really thought about in years is getting married to a mutual acquaintance. Like, I seriously one thousand percent have no logical reason to feel envious…

Interesting! I’d love to try quilting but it feels intimidating to me—I think it’s the necessity of a walking foot that scares me off.

I am a quilter. I have attempted clothes, but I work better in two dimensions.

So I recently started having sex and I’m almost aged out of my parents health insurance. I’ve always wanted an IUD with my mom singing praises of them. I tell my mom I want one. All of the sudden they are a sin and I need to go to confession and talk to a priest. I told her contraception is not mentioned in the bible…

I NEED AN UPDATE FROM THE PERSON LAST WEEK WITH THE TWO TIMIN BOYFRIEND ASSHOLE!!!! Sorry....I have been thinking about her allllllll week!

Oh, that’s fair. I just wanted to contribute my $0.02 to the discussion. That song really captured my heart, and I often think about how/why it happened, so the details are in the forefront of my mind. So much of pop music is unpleasant to me, so when I actually enjoy a song that I have to hear, I’m thrilled.

Yet, somehow, I’m the one in the grays.

At this point, there’s nothing more the party can do to appease these people. They integrated most of Bernie’s signature policies into the Clinton’s platform. She’s now running on the most liberal platform of any Democrat in history. Bernie himself has endorsed her. Her policies were already nearly identical to his,…

But the thing is, none of the scenarios matter. Not in the least. Nothing that has happened with this guy in the past is at all relevant anymore. He lied to you; he gaslighted you; he scammed you emotionally, and your mother as well. You are done and out of there, like a cartoon character with lines streaking out…

You are worthy of love. It is not about whether he is capable of giving love and/or whether he loved you, but your belief that you deserve love.

I moved back in with my parents after splitting with my ex, and aside from just helping to get me back on my feet the constant company did make me feel better. It may be more common since I’m a few years older than you, but several of my friends (and my now-husband!) all spent time at home after divorces. It gets…

Sometimes there’s nothing as healing and nurturing as being around your parents.

I am 38 and live with my parents. If you get along with them, and it is a healthy environment for you, go for it. It is nothing to be embarrassed about.

I’m so sorry this happened to you. It is truly horrifying. Everyone here seems to have given some sage and compassionate advice. All I want to add is that a key part of healing when you’ve been lied to for so long is learning to stop looking for or making excuses for why the manipulative person acts the way they do.…

IMO- it’s not that you’re not worth an explaination, it’s that a user like him can’t stomach facing and giving an explaination to someone who is a genuine, truly good quality person. You’re so much better than him, he can’t face you now that he’s been revealed.

You don’t seem angry, I think you should be angry. You kinda sound like if he called you and was all “baby baby baby” at you and “left his wife” you’d take him and girl, that’s not a good place to be. Maybe he’s doing you a favor by blocking you, no contact with this manipulative fucker is definitely the way to go.…

Ugh...my parents are huge Buffett fans and every time I see them they get smashed and talk wistfully about the true meaning of his songs. They also just bought a boat, they are truly reaching late stage Buffettitus.
