“I feel like a guy, but I’m a girl”

3 Comments

I feel like a guy even though I’m a girl. My mom thinks I’m too young for the surgery (which I agree,) but she teases me that I want to wear guys clothes etc. She is supportive of trans people but is for some reason scared that I might be.

I only liked pink when I was under six and I only stopped wearing dresses roughly 6 months ago. Please help. When I told my friends they just laughed and started to tell me that I’m not a guy and “you’d look bad with short hair” or “you look good as a girl, you ungrateful bitch” and “I didn’t even get a chance to give you a makeover .” 😦

“He loves his friends more than me”

I don’t know how to start this, but I think it’s best if you know as much detail as possible.
I’ve been with my current partner for just over two years, I am 23 and he is 19, almost 20. I have a 4 year old son, who’s father is my ex.

At the beginning of our relationship, I discovered he was still actively using a dating app because he was unsure if ‘we’d work out’. He was also deleting messages from his ex. This situation was confronted and quickly forgiven. I absolutely adore him, and as cliche as it sounds, he came in to my life when I needed someone very badly (I suffer with depression). Like I said, I adore him. Continue reading →

“I want to break up with him, but am worried about my son”

1 Comment

I have been in a relationship with my boyfriend for almost three years. I’ve come to the realization recently that I’m not in love anymore and am very unhappy in the relationship. I want to end things with him and am ready to move on and be on my own.

My only hang up is that I have a seven year old son who has grown to see my boyfriend as a father figure. His real father lives two states away and only comes home once or twice a month. I’m worried about the effect this will have on my son. Both in the fact that my boyfriend will no longer be around, and because our lifestyle will have to change pretty dramatically to be able to afford to stay in the same apartment and school district once we no longer have his income.

I know that moving on will make me happier so how do I do it in a way that lets a seven year old know it isn’t his fault and that everything is going to be okay?

“I sent sex texts to other guys and now I want him back”

4 Comments

I admit that I cheated on my boyfriend, however I only texted and sent sex texts. I never met with any of the other guys, or had any physical contact with them . I really do love my boyfriend. I know it might not seem like it, but I do and I feel like shit for doing it, but I really wanted the extra attention. I know that might sound bad but I have never received any attention from anyone besides my boyfriend. Not even my parents give me attention. I really want my boyfriend back but I have no idea how to get him back. Please help me.

“We got high and he hasn’t asked me on another date”

2 Comments

I’m 20 years old with a shit ton of anxiety. So I might need some advice and someone to hit me over the head and snap me back to reality. I met this guy (23) who super liked me on Tinder and we went on four dates in total and he’s been texting me regularly with a few minutes too a few hours gap in between our texts.

Each date got progressively better and the fourth one seemed like it was the most successful, he wanted to hang out longer, so we smoked some weed and watched a really bad movie in my dorm. Things were fine (and I’m also kinda sure he got a boner LOL) until the end, I got a little nervous once I realized it was late and he had to go home stoned. Continue reading →

“I had sex in the park with a co-worker”

3 Comments

I have this guy friend.. we were co-workers for two and a half years. Everybody knew him as funny and flirty. He has been in a relationship with a store manager from a sister store (everyone knew that too) for years. Well I started actually working with his shifts (graveyard shifts), because I was having problems with my then-current bf so I moved out of town and closer to where I worked, except I was by myself living with roommates so therefore I had to pay more bills and find rides to work, because I have to give up my car to pay rent.

“I was drunk and I felt raped”

6 Comments

My ex boyfriend had sex with me when I was in and out of consciousness after a night of drinking. He was completely sober and we had a fight that night. I came over to his place, leaving my friends at a bar, because he had accused me over text of staying out late to get drunk, and hook up with someone random.

I was so drunk and upset, that I left my friends immediately and stumbled over to his apartment. I was crying and thought we would just cuddle and go to sleep. I woke up with him on top of me and then blacked out again. I felt raped but didn’t say anything until a few months later after we broke up. Continue reading →

“We were so happy and insanely in love”

1 Comment

They’ve been together since high school. But now, the stress of both college and her mom’s cancer has taken a toll on their relationship. Is it worth fighting for, or is it time to let go?

Carly says:

 I have been dating my boyfriend for over a year. We hit it off senior year in high school, and have now made it through our first semester of college. We were so happy and insanely in love.

Two days before I went to college, my mom was diagnosed with stage four cancer. This obstacle has been a burden on our relationship. Every argument we get into now makes me feel even more depressed on top of all the stress I am dealing with. I have lost the joy and same amount of giddiness I have had in the past.

We have been going through an extremely rough time recently, and our relationship is suffering. I’m not sure if all this is because of what I am having to deal with or if it is time to let go. I want to fix things and I know he loves me, but I don’t know if I should be investing all my focus into fixing our relationship. The last thing I want to do is end it, but I am so tired and stressed out. I’m not sure if I have the energy to mend this. I do not want to do anything impulsive.

Travis says:

 I love Carly with all my heart. Around our one-year, we started having a lot of problems. I deeply regret the way I acted at times and apologized over and over. I am committed to making a change in things, but I don’t know if she believes me.

I am a terrible plan-maker, and that makes Carly feel like less of a priority when I forget things. I say stupid things sometimes and always end up feeling terrible about it. I just hope I did not commit to making a change when it is already too late. I am afraid I already lost her. She is not in an emotional position to fix what is broken. I got so focused on college and finding a friend group that I lost the focus I had on our relationship.

I am trying to make a change, but we seem to always be at each other’s throats still. I think she has also lost sight of how happy she has been with me in the past, and I never want her to forget that.

“I want to be with both of them”

I’ve been dating the same guy for about 6 months and we’ve fallen apart, he even agrees with me. But every time I talk about fixing us, or breaking up, he curves around it. We only text a little and never talk or see each other in person anymore.

His phone was taken and he’s now living elsewhere, but promises me he’ll be back next year for school. When idk if we can last that long. We’ve been so distanced. We still say I love you but it feels to me like there isn’t power to that anymore. We decided we’d try to last till he comes back next year. Continue reading →
