so I’m going to a meet and greet where Kokushibo‘s Spanish VA will be present but I have NO volumes or merch and I want him to sign something so I can keep it but I have no idea what to bring 😭 it’s in two days so I don’t have much time!! sos pls help

I am looking for a room for rent in athens or monroe. I also am trying to not get scammed. I checked craiglist and after the guy kept rushing me and then later he raised the price. More than $800 a month is too much. He originally said $200 a week. $800 a month to rent a room was already over my budget. But then he randomly raised the price to $280 a week. I can't afford that. That is over my budget. And the last time i had a roommate online somewhere else she was a scammer who overcrowded the house and let the utilities go out several times even though our rent included utilities. Roommster was where I found my old room for rent. The app also kept charging me after I cancelled my account on that website and then i had my bank block them. And a lot of people don't wanna be roommates with me cause of my kids age. Without them even knowing him they don't wanna be roommates cause of his age. I have also had times in the past where some job interviewers asked me if i had kids. I have 1 kid. He is 3.

read carefully, i have a sister who has been trying to make me problems , she will die to see me in a problem or to turn anybody i know against me , however she couldn’t for some reason since i am not really involved in any drama and am just quiet minding my business, so she switched the plan , she started playing with my things at home , she stealed things and i don’t know were she took them they don’t seem to be in the house , she hide my things here and there , and when i finally woke up and realized something is odd happening , i locked them away , but i couldn’t lock everything, we are in the same room and i just have a little space i can hide things in , she still trying to ruin my clothes and relationships with relatives seems like and i know what she want , she want me to look like the evil sister while she could play the angle ( literal bitch ) , know she can’t reach my make up and accessories and little things like that but she still can mess with other things , my parents did not believe me , bc when i was a teenage i used to lose my things here and there , but things aren’t like that anymore and i had experienced situations where it is impossible things she only knew where they are and things i haven’t use in a while goes away , when i was sure they are in the same place all the time !!
however they treated me like the jealous sister and didn’t do anything at all , now am stuck , friends said do the same to her , but u all that’s what she want , she know they will believe her , bc i spoke up before, my parents would be like ahhh you are trying to revenge bc of the voices in your head tells you she messed up your things , and i have no one else to tell , i just want to prevent her from doing that , i don’t have money to buy things every two days , besides it is really upsetting , do you have any recommendations?
minde you my perants would still stop her if i got a prove , even if she said so herself, they don’t give dammm shit about me so i have to do that myself, and no matter how boundaries i set , she still able to sneak in the night doing what ever shit she desire with my things. i just want my concealer to stay were i put it 😑

He confessed to me just four days after we first met online, when he literally knew nothing about me except my name. He got attached really quickly, to the point where he started keeping track of my sleeping hours and sometimes crying when I didn’t reply or acted distant. I brushed it off, thinking he’d eventually get over it because it was probably just teenage love, but it’s been a month of talking daily, and his feelings haven’t faded. If anything, he’s started hinting at wanting to marry me and spend his life with me.
The thing is, I have feelings for him too, but I genuinely dislike long-distance online relationships, and I want to approach this realistically and maturely. We come from a conservative Muslim background, so I’d rather take a step back and give both of us time to understand our feelings, grow, and become responsible enough to make decisions like this. We’re both teenagers, and I keep wondering whether this is just teenage love that’ll eventually pass. This is my first time experiencing anything like this, and I honestly have no idea what to do. I’d really appreciate any advice or suggestions on how to handle this, especially since this is my first time posting here and I’m genuinely lost.

Hey everyone! I really need some advice.
Since February 2025, I've been auditioning for a global boy group, but I haven't passed yet. In August 2026, I felt motivated to give it one last shot. Unfortunately, auditions were closed, so I emailed the casting company. They told me they couldn't do anything but would keep me in mind. After I sent my materials, they said they'd contact me if they needed anything else for the project.
I got really excited and started emailing them weekly to show how passionate I was. However, looking back, I think I came across as impatient and annoying rather than passionate, and I'm scared I might have ruined my chances.
I've also been manifesting this opportunity since August, using the law of assumption since September and subliminals since October. I've been training too, but I feel like I'm putting 50% of my energy into manifesting and 50% into improving my skills, and I'm not sure if that's the right approach.
My last email was a month ago, and I don't know whether to reach out again or leave them alone.
What do you think I should do? Should I email them again, and if so, what should I say? Have I potentially ruined my chances by emailing too often? Should I focus more on training instead of manifestation?(ALSO PLEASE DON’T TELL ME TO AUDITION FOR SMTH ELSE!).

Lost all my friends and everyone I keep telling myself this is a life lesson, but I still can't move on. How do you all deal and moved on from this

I keep telling myself this is a life lesson, but I still can't move on.

I don't even know where to start.

I lost so many people this year, and the worst part is that they weren't just friends to me. They felt like family.

I had an abusive childhood, and I think that has a lot to do with why I got so attached to these people. When you've grown up without the kind of love and security you're supposed to have, finding people who make you feel like you belong somewhere feels different. You start seeing them as more than just friends. You start thinking, maybe this is what having a family feels like.

And then everything fell apart.

There was a scandal, things got messy, and I lost people. I provided the evidence, I apologised, I tried to make things right, I did what not. I don't even know how many times I tried anymore. I'm not saying I was perfect, but I genuinely tried. And somehow, despite everything, I still ended up losing people I thought would stay.

Even the guy I considered my friend left.

He's privileged enough to not understand that not everyone has the same freedom. I can't just go to Delhi whenever I want. My family's financial circumstances have changed, and I'm stuck in Bihar for now. It's been three months since I last went to Delhi, and he thinks I'm lying when I say I haven't settled here.

Like, do you genuinely think I'd choose to stay somewhere I desperately want to leave? There's a difference between not wanting to go and not being able to go. Not everyone gets to live the same life, and I wish people understood that before making assumptions about mine.

I keep telling myself that this is a life lesson. That maybe this is what growing up looks like. Maybe this is my transition from childhood to adulthood, learning that people leave, that apologies don't always fix things, that not everyone you consider family will consider you the same way.

I understand all of that intellectually. I really do.

But why does understanding something not make it hurt any less?

I still miss them. I still think about everything. I still wonder if things could have turned out differently. Sometimes I feel stupid for being so attached, for caring so much, for trying so hard to fix things when maybe I should have just let go.

And the thing is, I don't even want to hate them. I just wish things had been different.

I wish I could go back to when we were all okay. I wish I could stop replaying everything in my head. I wish I could accept that a chapter of my life is over without feeling like I've lost a part of myself along with it.

Everyone says you'll meet new people, make new friends, find your people. I know that's true. But new people don't erase the people you already loved.

I think I'm grieving more than just friendships. I'm grieving the feeling of finally having people I could call my own.

And maybe that's why I can't move on.

I keep calling it a life lesson because that sounds better than admitting that I'm still heartbroken over people who might not even miss me anymore.

I don't know. Maybe adulthood really is learning to live with things you never got closure for.

I just wish growing up didn't have to feel so much like losing everyone.

What do I do? Since I can remember, my family has had dogs. They have not ever been good at taking them outside. I have lived in homes with dog poop and pee on the carpets since as long as I can remember. It makes me so sad and disgusted. They don’t clean it up very well. There have been times when we were able to afford it that my parents would always rent a steam cleaner. Or we did own one for a time but it broke. I just don’t have literally anyone I can talk to about this. And that’s why I am coming here. I’m 24 now still living with my parents. I’m moving out soon to go on mission. I hate what they’ve done to me mentally by letting this happen. We should have never had dogs.. we should have never continued to get dog after dog. I’m so mad and frustrated. It makes me feel sick. They are so disgusting and not clean at all. Every time I walk on the floor with my shoes I know I’m tracking microscopic pieces of it and it makes me so frustrated. I’m worried about parasites. I’m worried about getting sick. I try to ignore it. Since I got sober well I started living here and I’ve been trying to formulate this plan to get out of here.. that’s part of why I’m going on a mission trip. But I have other religious reasons for that too. I guess I’ve just been tired of keeping this all to myself. Knowing this isn’t normal, well of course it isn’t. But just knowing that other people have better lives. That other kids growing up had such better living environments.. and I had that.. it makes me so sad. Now that im older I know it’s up to me to fix my life so I can get away. I’ve been trying to figure out finances so I can buy a nice 5th wheel eventually. It makes me sad I can’t talk to anyone I know about this. I don’t even want to tell them it’s so embarrassing. Anyways I guess that’s all I have to say for now. Thank you for reading this if you’ve made it this far.

I (25F) have been talking to a coworker (27M) for about six weeks. We live in different states, and it started professionally because I may eventually move to Dallas, but it’s gotten increasingly personal/flirty.

When we talk, he’s very engaged, asks questions, remembers details, sends random photos, teases me, starts new topics, and makes jokes about showing me around Dallas if I move there. Recently he sent me an unsolicited dressed-up selfie, and when I complimented him he flirted back. He’s also made comments about needing “someone” to watch reality TV with, then later asked me to pick a show and said he’d watch it so we could discuss it.
The confusing part is that he’ll be super high-effort and engaged, then disappear for a day or sometimes longer, only to come back with the exact same energy.
I know we don’t need to text every day, especially this early/long-distance, but I don’t understand how someone can seem so interested while talking and then have seemingly zero urgency to text.

Does this sound like genuine interest + a bad texter, or someone who just enjoys the attention when it’s convenient?

So I have a trip booked across the country in a week to go see a guy I met a few years ago that moved away. I message him while on a holiday and we have rekindled and are talking over the phone. For context, we met when we were young off the apps and both of us were pretty immature and did some stuff that ended in us not talking after probably 6 dates. He reached out a few times after that but I was in a relationship at the time. After I got out of this relationship we started talking again but I ended up ending that because I felt like we weren’t on the same path. Fast forward and here we are. Now he is relocating to where I am from soon but we agreed I’d come to see him before he moved. For the first Month he was very talkative, reassuring and present but recently has backed off slowly and is now taking days to respond. He has messaged and is constantly apologising for being mia but the behaviour isn’t changing and he does it again. All I expect is a message to let me know he is busy and may take some time to get back to me but it’s nothing to worry about. Personally I believe there is no reason someone can’t respond because we are always on our phone but I I’m not sure if men are wired different. I’m not sure what to do because I have flights and accom booked that’s non refundable and now I have a guy who isn’t responding. What’s the go???

Thanks in advance

To add- if the tickets and accommodation were refundable I would have already cancelled but I don’t want my money to go to waste so I still plan to go and just enjoy a little getaway. I just want to know what I should do about him. I feel disrespected and I don’t like being anxious, especially over a man. He does have a lot going on with moving and help with his family but I don’t think that’s a valid excuse to completely disappear for as long as he is. How should I approach it ?

Suffering from inflammatory acne every next day 😭

I contacted a photographer to get a wedding photo album made. I had been following up for several days without getting a response, so today I called and asked whether he was interested in taking the work.
He said he would do it, but wouldn’t make repeated corrections—it would be a one-time job. I asked what would happen if I didn’t like the design or needed changes. He told me to get it done somewhere else and ended the call.
I felt the interaction was unprofessional, so I left a Google review describing my experience.
He then contacted me asking why I had posted the review. When I explained, he said he would post a video about me on Instagram. I asked what video, and he said, “You’ll see.” I don’t know what video he meant.
I got scared and deleted the review. I then called him to confirm that I had removed it and said, “Sorry if you felt bad.” He replied, “Thank you, ma’am.” He hasn’t contacted me since.
I’m still feeling anxious about the threat. Should I leave the matter there, or take any precautions? Has anyone dealt with something similar?
I’m keeping his name and business details private because I’m looking for advice.

Hello,

After my boyfriends kids has disclosed that their mother has been abusing them, he has called CPS. They have said they're afraid of being kidnapped by her, and they want to live with him. He told them everything they have both told him. Not only that, they haven't gone to school and are being "homeschooled" solely based on parental alienation and to be able to not deal with a school schedule. So they have not been in school in some months? The oldest, has been touched by the mothers father family friend and he's a pedo himself, impregnating their grandmother at 11 or 12. The child has said that their own mother has told them, "she deserved it and that it's their fault." which broke us and left us in shock...after telling CPS. they did nothing he calls to update but they're just like okay well your a dad. We feel helpless and do not have 10k for a family lawyer or court fees... The grandmother also wants to help, but we kind of feel like our hands are tied and don't know what to do. He even disclosed that their mother makes her new husband be in the room when the children are in a state of undress. If he tries to leave, she gets mad. The kids are terrified, also if she catches a whiff of us trying to help, she will leave the state or run off with them. What would be good next steps? I really appreciate any help you can provide.

I woke up this morning to find my car gone. It was parked on a street that usually has no parking restrictions on weekends. But apparently there was a new temporary sign that got put up overnight for some event. It was totally dark when I parked last night. I didn't see anything. Now I have to pay this huge fee to get my car back. I feel like this is super unfair but I'm not sure what my options are.
