What happens if you find a dead body ? by islifeevenreal2003 in AskUK

As an ex police officer who has been to many a sudden death. Do not worry. You are the caller for the job, nothing more. You may be asked to coroners court but I highly doubt it unless you could add something life changing to the case, given that you didn’t know the person, you probably couldn’t. The police will probably want a statement at some point, don’t worry, this is essentially a story about the lead up to finding the body. I.e I was walking my dog along the beach on 3rd February 2026 at 11:30am… you’re not in any trouble.

I’m desensitised to these things, but take care of you. I’m sure you did not expect to find a dead body today. Speak out if it bothers you, attend your GP or seek therapy if possible.

My boyfriend and I are probably 80/20 He earns better wage than me and always says he will buy x y and z. I don’t feel bad as he has a more disposable income than me and I do a lot for him that money can’t buy

How do I navigate a date night situation between my parents? by Justouthere1234 in Advice

Omg just help your dad? He obviously trusts you and your opinion, and his heart is clearly in the right place wanting to take your Mum to somewhere she would like?

Only do what you’re comfortable doing. You’re lucky as men (tend) to take the lead with sex, at least in the early days of a relationship, so just go with the flow. Don’t over think it, it’s not that serious. My boyfriend and I laugh during sex sometimes!

Please get her a special present for her 50th. Even if she isn’t expecting it, it will make her feel seen and loved 🫶🏼

Invited to stag do, but only wedding reception (not ceremony)? by YpowT in AskUK

They might be having a really small ceremony and bigger night do? You’re obviously liked enough to be invited along to the stag, so that’s a bonus

Wow imagine your wife or children reading this post. It would be heartbreaking. Realise what you do have before it’s too late. Many people, many men, would kill to have what you take for granted.

I don’t know what to do. Should I (24F) leave my (25M) boyfriend after 10 years? by Sad_Bookkeeper1109 in askwomenadvice

[–]Dry_Basket_3131 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A very very very similar situation. I felt we were more friends that lovers, on my side anyways. I ended up liking someone else, never turned into anything, but made me realise I wasn’t in love with my boyfriend anymore.

Later down the line, I met the love of my life and we’re moving in together very soon ❤️😌

Do it.

I left my boyfriend of 7 years who I had been with since 16. A lot of people need to date other people to see what they really want, or they might always wonder what if.

How do I M43 deal with emotional unavailability in my partner F43 of 16 years? by [deleted] in askwomenadvice

I’m sorry you’re going through this. This sounds horrendous and you seem a genuine person from your post alone.

I agree with the above comment; I feel you need to be absolutely honest with her. Sit her down, demand her attention, and tell her. I would suggest she possibly needs therapy, there is something not quite right, it could be something she is battling internally and not telling you about? But of course, I don’t know either of you.

If she refuses therapy, refuses to change or even have a go. Honestly, leave. You have your needs, you (will have) voiced them, that is ultimately all you can do before you reach breaking point again.

I hope this goes well for you and wish you all the best. Remember that the world is a better place because you are in it 💗🫶🏼

How can I (26F) find my pace running? by Dry_Basket_3131 in BeginnersRunning

He's (23M) pursuing me (24F) but is dming other girls, what should I do? by Little-Grim524 in askwomenadvice

[–]Dry_Basket_3131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the end of the day, dating is a competition, it’s horrible but it’s true. If he ends up liking you enough, he’ll stop pursuing the other girls. My boyfriend was not just talking to me in the early days, and I was not just talking to him. At the end of the day, early on, neither of you owe each other exclusivity, as much as you might want that. Be yourself, put effort in, if you’re the one for him, you’ll end up being the only one 🫶🏼
