Polls: Family & Friends

So my boyfriend and I have been together long enough to be apart of family functions, I have met his family, extended family and I seem to be invited to most family functions but not birthday dinners when its just the intermediate family. I sometimes get a little annoyed with it but I try to look at the positives of it for me of not being invited and having a bit more time to myself. I am not sure if my boyfriend has even questioned why i'm not invited to birthday dinners to his family. Am I overreacting or would you be annoyed as well?

by the way, he is always welcome to family birthday dinners and functions in my family, there is no doubt about it. He says i'm part of his family but it only seems like it on certain days when it comes to birthday dinners

Some say being a parent is a forever thing, what do you say? Would you kick your child out once they reach a certain age?

My friend says she has a violent dog who tried to eat their cat and will attack or bite literally everyone except for the dad (it's a dad and his two young adults children). They tried to get professional intervention but it didn't work. They can't re-home the dog because it has a bite record. They don't want to euthanize him.

Since nobody else can safely interact with the dog, the dog is kept in a crate whenever the dad is at work and also when dinner is prepared and eaten. Which is like 630am-5pm and 630-9pm. I can empathize with the situation of keeping the family safe but it does seem like a little much even though the crate is comfortable with food, water, and toys. Does anyone have any advice I can send over to my friend?

Or are you fine with just having superficial connections with people? What are some of the shared deep understandings that you want to have with close friends?

A shopping centre in England has been criticised for installing rainbow buddy benches. The idea is by sitting on one, you're inviting people to sit next to you for a chat.

Apparently not many people are using them, so would you?

Should I stay in my expensive condo or move to a cheaper hotel, considering my uncertain future with my boyfriend and my desire to move Canada next year? “Please vote and leave comments below.”

More details:

Before, I was homeless, unable to afford a place. Now, with a better income, I live in a condo. Despite the expense of 1500 rent. I'm content because it's close to work. However, my job is affecting my mental health, and the country's racism makes it hard to belong. My brain and body is already asking me to find a new job. In Malaysia I work, I felt lonely really lonely until I met Hamzah, with whom he become my boyfriend for over a year. But, he is returning to Iraq after his PhD on August this year. I felt afraid if ever he will come back as he is also clueless of his future.

I'm torn between staying in my current condo or moving to a cheaper hotel as my contract ends this May. Should I stay or move considering my uncertain future and desire to move to Canada?

If I stay in condo I can only save 2500 with strict discipline and in hotel I can save 2900. 400 difference per month.
