I love the scrap book idea and the vision of your pup running around the yard in a life jacket! What breed is she? And have your parents talked about getting another dog?

I had a reply planned out in my head, until I scrolled down to the picture... My 5 year old Westie is almost identical to your pup and is currently on my lap, and I can’t imagine life without him.

I did the toilet paper hiding thing with my old roommate, and always wondered what the hell she did with no TP in her bathroom. I learned that she was just using mine whenever I left the apartment on the day she called me at work from a friend’s phone to tell me she was using my bathroom because she “happened to be…

I agree with what everyone else has said, regarding both your snooping and his lying. I do think it might be tricky to just cut ties and run though, as it sounds like you’re pretty deep into the relationship and you may not want to just ghost on him. Your situation is a little more tricky than “I didn’t realize the…

I've used this as an excuse too, but this year I actually got invited too something I'd really love to go to but I legit have to stay home to take care of my dog.

Thanks for starting this thread - it’s nice to know I’m not alone in the fireworks hating dog club! I’m about to embark on my third 4th of July where I have to stay at home and try to keep my pup calm. My neighbors have been shooting fireworks off nightly since the 26th and I’m about ready to drive to their houses and…

I love Seinfeld! I didn’t really “get it” when my parents watched it when I was a kid, but now it's one of those shows that if I'm flipping through the cable menu and see that it's on, I'll watch it. There's some problematic story lines here and there, but a lot of it is super progressive, especially with Elaine.…

Ladies and Gentlemen, We are Floating in Space - by Spiritualized. I can't listen to it anymore because it gives me too many feels but it's a lovely song.

My then-husband and I spent the day at his dad’s, he refused to stop drinking when I cut him off because he was driving us 45 minutes home, I couldn’t drive (he had a manual transmission) so I spent the ride home staring out the window at fireworks while crying and hoping he wouldn’t crash. I got home, changed, and…

Well don't leave us hanging, what did he advise??

When we were in our early 20s and paranoid (and sometimes irresponsible with our BC methods) my BFF taught me to always buy tests in 2 or 3 packs, because chances are if you have one scare you'll have another! Also, at least one of us always had a spare. :)

I am choosing to pretend this is was a hoax because no one could possibly be that fucking tone-deaf and selfish and awful. I don’t want to lose all faith in humanity.

I've only ever seen a handful of episodes of The Bachelor/ette but that is my new favorite show! So good.

Yeah, I read it as “I wanted to start a family ASAP so I figured I could get knocked up before my wedding and no one would be the wiser, but then the wedding got called off for reasons and blahblahblah DAMN LIBRUL MEDIA!”

Your user name is perfection.

Thanks!

I got on OKC and Tinder after a breakup as well, and my confidence boost was quickly shattered by all the horrible messages I received and profiles I looked at. I've heard good things about Plenty of Fish, and a friend told me recently that he had a good experience on Christian Mingle, of all places! He said the…

This is such a tough situation, and my advice is pretty much the opposite of what everyone else has said. While I think you definitely need to ask the person about exactly what happened, get tested, and talk to your therapist, I think you should tell your partner.

I’m 27, to answer your original question, but I just wanted to say that last year at my brother’s wedding reception the DJ played The Macarena and there was a group of probably 30 of us doing the dance through the entire song. Occasionally someone would shout out “How do we all remember this?!” It was glorious.

My friend had the same theory about Bennett and the raid on Cesar’s place, but surely he would know the kids would just end up in the same fucked up foster care system? I’m still having a hard time believing he’d abandon his kid, but maybe his flashback was supposed to show us that when the going gets real tough he…
