I'm asking this since here soon I'll have 3 kids and I only have a 3 bedroom house. My kids will have to share rooms and I'm extremely worried about them fighting. If you shared rooms with siblings did you fight a lot?

That's the arrangement my sister-in-law has. Sometimes when her shifts ends but there is an emergency call late at night, she has to assist the patient. Her job is very demanding and exhausting.
If someone either isn't working that day or spends more time at home, he/she does the cooking. Most of the times, it's my brother doing the cooking, cleaning the house and having her dinner ready when she comes home late and super tired from work.

She only has one day off. That's the only day she cooks and does the chores. They only have one kid; a year-old daughter.

My cousin has dated her boyfriend for nearly 2 years now. However, once in a while the past still hurts her.
When they were 15-16 year-olds, the guy used to be a jerk. He was one of the main social bullies (put bad nicknames on her) and used spread jokes about her facial acne and glasses. While laughing, he once someone would have to be blind or drunk to ever date her. He gave her a hard time and she used to come home stressed out. She hated school.

He came to eating his own words and things happened. I heard karma got him during the summer and he softened up. He worked hard and did so much to be a better person. What impressed her the most was that his apologies and promises were then followed by actions such as when he got involved in anti-bullying campaigns and participated (still does) in a couple animal shelters. He gained her friendship first. It wasn't until late Now 2019 (they were college juniors by then), that they officially started dating.

He's been treating her great since and has changed. He knows she's hurt at times and still apologizes, claiming he'll do anything to make that hurt go away. Needless to say, he informed his friends and I that he was to surprise her on Valentine's Day but not to tell her. He's hoping the answer is a yes. We know what it is. He really loves her. If someone worked hard to amend their awful behaviors and hasn't relapsed since, should they be forgiven?

Scenario:
You're either a cat or dog owner. You had to take him/her to the pet ER. They got saved from nearly dying due to intoxication. It was done on purpose.

Then you find out the ones responsible are these same 8-10 year-old kids (a boy and a girl) that live several blocks from you. It didn't happen to me but to my supervisor. He really wanted to slap the living hell out of them. Instead he ended up calling the cops and they got detained.

I used to socialize with somebody who did that and I hate her so much that it’s caused me to hate celebrities who look like her

She doesn’t know how I feel

Im not disclosing because she might change one day and we’ve known each other for almost 3/4 of our lives

So my friend 21st birthday today. She usually invites me every weekend to hangout with her. I thought she especially would today because it’s her 21st birthday. I said happy birthday to her and she didn’t invite me to come over for her 21st. She was telling me that she has a hangover from the night before. Should I be be mad at her for not inviting me or no?

I thought it was just a black thing but I now know friends of all ethnic backgrounds whose parents have the nerve as well. Even my friends from HS who range from 21-30 still have parents who will raise a hand to them, despite their grown age. I almost didn't buy my mom any gifts this Christmas. she's hardly one to lay hands but while shopping with her last week, she felt it was okay to do so. I bought my groceries as she said she’d pay for her personal nongrocery items separately. While at the cash register she kept calling my name asking for my card. I ignored her until she pestered me so. Then i finally responded “What? You said before we got up here that you’d pay for yours.” She was like “I don't know who she think she's what-ing right now?” Then she smacked me upside the back of the head in front of the whole store. It took everything in me not to swing back. But i spent the rest of the day cussing her out in my head 😂 She made it worse by constantly following me around for the next 5 mins, all on my shoulder like a bulldog saying “What you gonna do, you gonna hit me, huh huh?”. Then later that day proceeded to “Oooh i bet you’re texting all your friends talking bad about me because my ears are burning.” Then around the end of the day, she remembered I hadn't bought her Christmas gift yet and decided to give a half ass apology. Good Lord. Its really good i believe in respecting my mom cause the devil on my shoulder wanted me to smack that hoe down and give her coal for Christmas. #ToxicParents

I'm in my early 20's and my younger brother turned 18 last month. He's starting to learn do things on his own.

He wanted to arm wrestle me twice. Before we started my mother kept whispering to let him win. I said no and proceeded. I beat him easily both times. He felt disappointed and kept saying ''I can never beat you, I'll never be strong'' and went to his room.

Should I have given him one won at least? Part of me wanted to but then he'll never learn and maybe the next opponent he gets will be tougher than me. I think in life, part of becoming great at something and winning is by losing first.

I found out he cheated in Oct 2018, then stopped and then resumed cheating several times just last month. His mother never liked me and always critcized me. She gossiped about me to others. I had to still be polite and try getting along with this fake, liar for his sick.

Now that he cheated, I cussed the hell out of him. His mother heard it all and started with an ''I knew you were never good enough''. I replied with an ''Oh STFU, f*** both of you, I don't have to pretend to get along with you anymore. I never liked you either, you fake, lying gossiper. I only did it for your son's sake. Go f*** yourself. Same for your son.

If you guys don't like each other but still can have a nice conversation is that being fake?

Most people say that's being a respectful adult but wouldn't that still be pretending to get along? You know very well they don't like you and you can't stand them either. What do you think?

i saw a tik tok where all the women answered yes to that question; however, all the men said no. is it true that men are never friends with a woman simply to be friends? that they always have some underlying desire to have a romantic or sexual relationship with them?
it is just surprising to me because some of my friends are males, and its just a weird thought to have. to me, theyre just friends and literally nothing more... so do they feel the same about me?

Please include the percentage of such cats, among the cats you've had.

My example: throughout my life I've had 6 cats total (actually more but I was so young I don't remember them that well). 1 of my cats likes having his belly rubbed.

1 out of 6 = 17%.

How about you?
