My boyfriend and I have been together for 2 years now and it’s a serious committed relationship…. overall we hve a happy/ healthy relationship and I’ve met his entire family and his parents are always very welcoming and warm towards me - especially his mom.

His folks got a vacation house in the USA and I asked my bfs mom if I could come along with her son ( I have a valid passport and was going to pay my own air fare). His mom told me “not this time” cuz she’s still busy furnishing the house and she’s also very busy work-wise this time of the year and she’s also not inviting any of her friends either….

why would his mom say “no” to me if I’m always welcome to family gatherings and if she likes me so much and sees how happy I make her son?

I'm in a loving relationship. No friends unless you're sister counts and person you barely text counts. I have a part time job that gives me like 8 to 12 hours a week. No pets and in a two bedroom apartment.

My boyfriend loves doing his projects they take up all his time and I'm glad that he has something he loves to do. I do as well. I love video games, art, watching shows, listening to books and crocheting. But I never feel like I get enough attention from him. Even if we spend the whole weekend together and he doesn't do his projects. Like I get all of his attention.

But somehow I just feel like anytime I spend with him, isn't enough even if we spent the 24/7 together. I know I shouldn't feel this way. But I don't know how to not feel this way. I keep myself as busy as possible. But nothing is ever enough. How can I feel like it's enough?

I have tried to make friends but it's so hard to do and then I feel like all the friends I have ever had just leave me. Should we get a pet so I can focus on something else besides him? Or just deal with it? Or do something else that will make it feel like enough?

Please help. I cannot afford a therapist so I come to you guys.

But Love and Hate are opposite emotions we all know. So what similarities do they really possess?

*Both are Extreme emotions

*Both are felt about someone because of who they are and how we feel about them

*Both have strong desires for a finite end result. We wish those we love to thrive and greatly succeed at all that they do. We wish for all their dreams to come true. While we wish pain and failure for those that we hate and for all their dreams to end in nightmares.

Let's say that you really love someone but find out they cheated on you. At first you are left in shock and disbelief. Next the shock turns to hurt and pain. Then the emotion starts to switch to anger. Finally a hatred sets in and grows deeper as you realize what a fool you have been taken for... you know I'm right!

Love and hate are related emotions because they are both strong and intense and directed towards someone in particular and many times that same someone is on the receiving end of both, and maybe by their own doing.

Please take my Poll and let me know what your opinion or experience has been with Love and hate, both on the giving and receiving ends... PLEASE!

Wouldn't it be nice if all hatred could be eliminated from the planet and we could just say...

The first to apologize is the bravest
The first to forgive is the strongest
The first to forget is the happiest

... I LOVE YOU!

So I make healthy snacks that can be really expensive to make, awhile ago my boyfriend would ask me for some since it seemed like he liked them as well as his coworker really liked them. This would be almost an every other week thing roughly. So once he stopped working with her he stopped asking for it and it seemed like he never really liked them because if he did I feel like he would still ask for them even though he’s not working with her at the time.

A couple months ago I gave him some without him even asking, he brought it to work and as always he says his coworker really likes them and last time he had them he complained how messy they were. Now all of a sudden since he is working with his coworker again and he told me his coworker asked for a fresh batch of them.

If it’s once or twice of asking for them then sure no problem I’d give it to him, but my problem is he didn’t ask for them for himself and it’s been more than twice where he would ask for them for his coworker to have.

i gave him the recipe so if his coworker (s) wanted to have some they can make them

Out of the many infidelity stories I've read, that one that realized still being hurt and cheated in revenge makes me feel some sympathy for them.

What if they started as a decent, good and innocent person that would've never cheated if they didn't get hurt that badly? Unlike the selfish cheater, they cheated out of excruciating emotional agony and anger.

What do you think? Would you feel some compassion/sympathy for them?

Let's say you were in a relationship or marriage. Then it became toxic suddenly.

Scenerio: Ok so the woman doesn't abort your child. However, she tells you that she'll leave you and will give up the baby after giving birth unless you want the baby but that means you'll be a single father. She tells you "I don't want nor care about the baby, I'm leaving".

Would you accept being a single father if the woman doesn't want nor cares for your baby?
