Sending you an internet hug. Do you have a close family member you can confide in/go to for help? Or an old friend who lives near you who would still meet up even if you’ve drifted apart?

It sounds like she knows you (and all her other friends/family) don’t like this guy. So I second what CalamityJane2 said above — tell her honestly that you care so deeply for her as a friend and that you want her to know that, no matter what, she can call you in an emergency, or when she feels like she needs someone…

Thanks Philip! It’s probably my adblocker, but I don’t want to disable that to give it another go.

Their online tool doesn’t work for me — the “continue” button doesn’t do anything when pressed after I’ve entered my height and weight. Bummer.

Yes! My boyfriend and I listened to it on audio together while on a road trip and it was such an awesome experience. Except that it took way longer to finish it because we kept pausing it every 10 or 15 minutes because something Aziz said reminded us of a story of a past relationship or to ask each other something he…

Good, I’m not the only one.

But look at the bright side: Not one person present will fault the bride and groom if they conveniently forget to write thank you notes for their presents. It was a pretty stressful day.

I know, right? What are her readers preserving? Does she mean persevering? Maybe the whole site was meant to be called Persevere but her spelling was shaky...?

“That’s a very big book for such a little lady.”

Had to comment to say how much I love your username. I’m mid-marathon-rewatch of Friends on Netflix and it is the best.

Thank you for sharing this, and I’m so sorry for your loss. I hope you’re taking some time to grieve in whatever way works best for you.

Plan the wedding you and your fiance can afford. Don’t sign contracts for anything that’s outside of your own budget until you have their check deposited in your bank account. This goes for your parents as well, even if they’re being easygoing about it.

Ugh, yes, the GoFundMe people kill me. I had one pop up the other day for a woman who’s at least 5 years older than me, asking for several thousand dollars so she can go back and finish grad school.

Idk, my cat was incredibly clean - I never found litter anywhere but directly outside the litterbox, all of which would get caught on the mat I kept there. I also used the pine litter that turns to sawdust instead of clumping, so maybe that was part of it.

My boyfriend calls me sweet potato.

OMG THANK YOU FOR THIS GEM.

YAAAAAAS.
