Men are like blowtorches, women are like ovens. (You can google that.)

Baby starts daycare on Monday and I go back to work (after 16 weeks off) the following week. I will be a wreck for a while. :(

Honestly, I think it is a lesson many, many women learn the hard way. I don’t think you’ve really been alive until you’ve had your heart broken at least once (if not a few times). Look at all the songs about heartbreak, it is so common, longing for someone who is gone from you life.

“Now one night stands are something I am not used to or comfortable with at all, so right before we were about to do it I warned him that if it was going to be awkward or if he was going to treat me differently after having sex with him, then I would not sleep with him and that we should just be friends. He STRONGLY…

I tried to post earlier, but it didn’t make it up?

Do you still know her? Would it be worth telling her, or do you just not want to get involved? I’m sorry :(

Walk away. There won’t be closure. There’s nothing to talk out.

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 have nothing particularly useful to offer —except to note that I'm 30, and of my high school class that I'm aware of via Facebook, there have already been four or five divorces, so you're not alone! — but replying to bring you out of the gray so others can offer advice. Stay strong honey, you're only young and it's…

5 months after splitting up with my husband, I feel sad and still struggle with being alone. Thinking about moving in with my folks for awhile, but worried that would be embarrassing in my late 20s (I am 26). How do I get over my fear of solitude you guys?

Anyone else dealing with election anxiety? I keep obsessively checking swing state polls and feeling nauseated. Am I being ridiculous?

I am so sorry. I hope this is the first and last time you will ever have to deal with gaslighting.

I’m trying to be gentle ... but I think you know the explanation. His wife caught him in yet another web of lies, and he’s freaked out about destroying his marriage. Even though he already did. His wife probably banned him from talking with you or texting you. (Please, please, please do not reach out to his wife…

I’m sorry this happened to you. Some people are cowards and run to avoid confrontation. You will get closure, however long it takes, but I wouldn’t expect any help from him in this.

Hi, all! Happy to be back after a couple of weeks in **Alaska!** Not happy to be back in my nearly empty apartment in PA to grab random stuff and do final cleaning all by myself. Heading to Cincinnati next week, so wish me luck with the new job. Presented below are a moose and Denali, for your viewing pleasure.

I have been waiting a week for this SNS. I’ll try to keep my story somewhat cogent. Jezzies, I need help from unbiased parties because I’m in such a bad place. I’m using a burner for reasons that will become obvious. The background is necessary, but this wound up being ridiculously long. I don’t know if anyone will…

BEAUTY THREAD!

So against my better judgement, I followed Kim on Snapchat and Taylor does actually acknowledge the making-her-famous line. So it seems she’s just taking issue with being called a “bitch”. Fine ok. I really dislike that word myself especially when used by a man, it feels very aggressive and shaming, but I think it’s a…

HEY! Don’t insult garbage people by comparing them to the Kardashians

Translation: Garbage people doing garbage things to other garbage people.
