“My husband lied about paying mortgage for almost a year.”
My husband (41m) and I (34f) have our finances pretty separate. We each have our own accounts and the only thing in both of our names is our house and his car. He makes about 2x what I make and we split expenses up in a way we both felt was fair and manageable for each of us while both working on our own personal credit card debt we brought into the relationship. One of the things he covers is the mortgage in full. He works in accounting and I work in education, I have never been great at managing my money so he does my monthly budget for me and has access to all of my accounts and knows what my debts are.

“Found out my Girlfriend of 1.5 years has been cheating all along”
GF of 1.5 years fell asleep with her phone unlocked while I was still working, took her phone to plug it in and a notification popped up, some guy I’ve never heard about asking if she was alone. I went through the chats and it was it turns out she’s been hooking up with that guy for a few months, during her “girls nights”.
I dug deeper, checking any other male dm’s. Turns out that for the whole duration of our “perfect” relationship she’s been hooking up with a variety of different men. Some where total strangers she met on instagram, others were long time “friends” that she occasionally fucked, there was even a married guy that she’s been fucking regularly. She was also disrespecting me and sending them our private chats, complaining and seeking comfort when we had a fight or something didn’t go well for a few days.

Finding Peace in the Evolution of Relationships
Let’s be real for a second… People change. You change. I change. We all change. And that’s okay. In fact, it’s more than okay—it’s a natural, inevitable part of this crazy thing we call life.
But here’s the thing that trips most people up: They expect everything else to stay the same even as they themselves transform. They think their friendships from high school should be just as tight ten years later. They assume family dynamics will never shift. They believe their romantic relationships should stay in the honeymoon phase forever.

What to Say Instead of ‘Hey’ or ‘How Are You Doing’ on Online Dating
Hey there! Tired of those same old boring openers on dating apps? I feel you. “Hey” and “How are you doing?” are about as exciting as watching paint dry. If you want to stand out from the sea of generic messages and actually catch your match’s interest, you gotta step up your game.

“I love my husband but i think he is gay.”
I have been with my husband for about 2 years and as our relationship continues I just cant shake the feeling that he is gay and not just bisexual. When he first got together he had grindr downloaded on his phone but there was not identifiable information about himself as well as looking like he only used it for hookups. Well was trying to because he never responded to any messages that he received. When he used to watch porn I found that it was only ever trans female that had not transitioned yet or gay porn.

“$131,500 debt at 22”
This all started in 2022 when I turned $2k to $80k trading options. I lost it all clearly and have had the chase mentality ever since.
I ended up taking out a personal loan for $20k which I lost and went to collections. I racked up $18k in credit card debt. Borrowed around $85k from my friends and family. I even went to the extent of taking money from work and applying for payday loans.

“I am not my wife’s first choice.”
My wife and I have been married for 2 years and together for 4. Prior to dating me she was with her high school boyfriend for 8 years. He broke up with her and she was devastated at the time.
I knew she still had feelings for him when we started dating but thought that those would fade over time. 4 years later they still haven’t and I don’t know what to do.
She cried when he got married to someone else and when they got pregnant. I catch her looking at his facebook and instagram pages. They don’t talk but if he ever reached out I’m sure she wouldn’t ignore him.
