Yikes. What a mess. Some lies are too big to stay hidden. His wife WILL eventually find out, assuming she doesn't already know and is turning a blind eye. I agree that living honestly brings the most personal fulfillment, but your friend will have to learn that for himself. What he is doing is not sustainable. I hope…

Well it sounds like you are jumping back into the dating pool with both feet! There was an episode of Sex and the City where Charlotte had two dates in one night. She got caught because she lied to the first guy that she was sick and then he later saw her out with the other guy. It is hard to reject someone, but I…

How close are you to your stepbrother? Have you talked to him about your concerns? If that doesn't work, I think you have to get the authorities involved. A child's well-being is at stake and that kind of violence in the home can have long term, harmful effects, as you have already witnessed.

Just be honest. "It's been nice getting to know you, but I don't see us working out" is simple and direct and most people will leave it at that. And don't feel bad about two dates! You just met them.

No human institution is perfect. Hating all Christians for the actions of different churches throughout history is about as useful as hating all Americans because of the actions of the government.

He shouldn't talk to your dad about your health. And if he makes you uncomfortable, then he is not the right doctor for you!

I find tennis so hypnotic to watch.

That is amazing! You had me at library.

I do not find Richard Gere attractive, but I know people who do. I think it has something to do with the romantic roles he chooses. As for a female equivalent, my vote goes to Jennifer Aniston. I think anyone could match her hotness with a personal trainer and hair straightener.

I blame increased expectations, like New Year's Eve and birthdays.

What's wrong with being a snob?

Hate to agree, but it's true. All you can do is refuse to enable the habit and offer support if/when he wants to get better. I've watched my brother struggle with pot for years. It's the only way he can relax and deal with difficult emotions, which makes me sad, but I can't make him stop.

You shouldn't feel like a loser! You are following your dream and making practical concrete plans at the same time. Sounds like winning to me.

This Tumblr has lots of good ideas. What works for me and my boyfriend is to do ten minutes a day, usually together, so that chores don't pile up. Then every week or two we do deeper cleaning, which usually only takes an hour. And we take turns cooking for each other, depending on who gets home earlier.

And how is the creator of these surprised that some people are offended by this? She should own the fact that using Hitler as a meme is deliberately shocking.

I'm not sure about his exact inspiration, but he made the track with Sub Pop records to benefit Music for Marriage Equality. Here is the GLAAD article about how the video supported R-74.

Macklemore wrote this song to help support the passage of I74 in Washington State, which legalized same-sex marriage. I think he has every right to sing about an issue that affects people he loves.

This Scott approves.

I liked her karaoke performance and her honesty.
