That’s nothing.” But let me tell you, over time, that 1% can turn into a giant drain on your retirement savings.

“Having an affair with a married man and I don’t feel bad”
So basically I’m a waitress and the guy, married man in question came to my job and instantly clicked. He’s 8 years older than me and I am in my mid 20s.
We were initially both just getting to know each other, he became one of my regular patrons but nothing went further. I was in a relationship with my child’s father but that has since ended. I came to find out that he was married when I revealed to him that I have a daughter.
We generally chat on his way home from work and when he comes in. We went hunting together this weekend and it was a lot of fun and we’re supposed to meet up today during his lunch break.
Basically, his wife hasn’t been intimate with him in almost a year and I’m an outlet for that. I’m planning to move down south in the coming year and I believe that’s part of the reason I don’t feel bad. I also find it exciting, the thrill of potentially getting caught or having his wife find out and come after me.

The Nerdcore Gathering of the Year
Hey fellow nerds and music lovers! Ever heard of nerdcore? It’s this awesome mashup of hip-hop and all the geeky stuff we love – think gaming, anime, and everything in between.
I’m super stoked about Nerdcore Party Con coming up this July 20th-21st at The Ritz in Raleigh, NC. It’s like a playground for us geeks who also dig sick beats and clever rhymes. The lineup is insane – these artists somehow manage to rap about video games and comic books in a way that gets your head nodding and your inner nerd cheering.
The Fine Line Between Settling and Being Realistic in Love
In the world of dating and relationships, there’s a lot of talk about “settling.” You’ll hear people say things like “Don’t settle for less than you deserve” or “I’d rather be alone than settle.” And while it’s true that you should never stay in a relationship with someone who makes you unhappy just for the sake of being in a relationship, there’s a fine line between settling and being realistic.

How to Allow Yourself to Dream Big
We’ve all heard the clichéd advice to “dream big” and “shoot for the stars.” But let’s be real—most of us don’t actually do it. We keep our dreams small, safe, and easily attainable. We avoid the risk of failure and disappointment that comes with setting our sights too high.
But here’s the thing: Playing it safe and dreaming small is a surefire recipe for a life of mediocrity and regret. If you want to live an extraordinary, fulfilling life, you need to give yourself permission to dream f*cking big.

15 People Reveal the Things They Wish They Learned Earlier in Life
- Don’t strain too hard or force a poop out, let it come out naturally as possible. Leads to hemorrhoids. I used to poop like it was a sport, learned my lesson after requiring surgery and regular visits to the proctologist. Wipe gently too y’all. Be nice to your buttholes.
