#27346 I never pay for meals when my girlfriend now fiancé and I go out. I don't pay for anything in the relationship. I was very adamant at the start of the relationship that I was looking for a sugar mamma type and if she couldn't deliver that request then I was taking my business elsewhere. She agreed without argument and we've been together for 8 years now and hopefully 50 more.

#27345 So although my girlfriend offers to pay for food sometimes and stuff, I decline and still end up paying because I kinda get the vibes that although she's offering she doesn't really expect me to let her pay. I'd totally be chill with splitting the bill or us paying on alternate dates. The real question is how do I actually get her to split the bill without her thinking I'm a cheap fuck

#27344 I need some advice from you ladies, I've known this girl for awhile now but we've never been close. We just kind of started getting to know each other a bit, mostly for business purposes but it turns out she's actually really funny and cute, I'm in a situation that I didn't mean to turn into me flirting with her but I want to tell her that I like her. It's not that I'm afraid of telling her so much as this is all so new and I don't want to seem like I'm moving too fast. Is it best just to put it out there now, or should I be trying to play it cool until things get deeper? It's not that I'm scared to ask or anything, just that I don't want her to feel rushed or pressured to give an answer to a guy she just met.

#27343 Does never having had a gf at age 22 make me undesirable and worthless?

#27341 I can pick a lock, hot wire a car, and I am the 1% that carries around campus. Purdue might think I'm a security nightmare and you might think I'm paranoid.

#27342 God I hate I hate my brain. I screwed up big time when I was terrified about some news I received and then when I tried to explain it and apologize for it I made it worse because I didnt explain it the way I meant to so I apologized again and tried to explain which made it even worse and now I probably lost a friend permanently because I couldnt just take a step back and just shut up. I hurt her and I just want to make up for it and now she wont talk to me. I always do this every single time it involves my emotions or friendship. I just wish I could undo it all and start over...

#27340 To all the people facing loneliness and depression. I truly understand your pain and heartache. I truly know what it is to get rejected by everyone and not have friends and miss out on doing amazing things in college. I just urge you to channelize your energy to achieve something and become successful. Go workout in the gym and get the perfect body, go ace your classes and make your education meaningful, go connect again with your parents and grandparents with whom you became distant. Trust me looking back I feel bad about being lonely, but more importantly on missing out on achieving things which were well within our reach. Let's have no expectations of people for a while and be successful loners not depressed and beaten down ones. God throws challenges at all of us, we all have to deal with them independently.

#27339 I was thinking about posting these thoughts on my own Facebook but I don't want people to think differently of me or think I'm ignorant.

I support gay rights/marriage but I watched this video and it made me think about gay rights and issues in the U.S. the video was like "why do we still have pride movements in the U.S. when almost everyone now is accepting unlike other countries?"

IDK, do you think gay people are still marginalized and still have to fight for equal rights in the U.S.?

Yes, I'm a cis straight person, so I don't understand what's it like. But please let me know your opinions so I can be more educated.
