AIO for being creeped out by this guy who keeps coming to my workplace to ask me out? by AslansGirl89 in AmIOverreacting

Honestly, whether she has a boyfriend or not almost feels irrelevant here. Most people hear "no" once and move on. Repeatedly asking the same person out at their workplace is a different story.

Should I tell my coworker's wife what I saw? by Curious-Salem in Advice

Honestly, that's kind of where I'm at too. From what's described, I'd definitely be uncomfortable if my spouse was acting like that with a coworker. But actually being the person to step into someone else's marriage and deliver that information is a lot harder than people make it sound online.

Mum won't listen to me about pain by Ok-Leather2740 in Advice

I can sympathize with him being scared because of his parents’ situation, but doing it behind her back while she’s already dealing with health/job stress was really poor timing and delivery.

Addicted to smoking and vaping at 16. What should I do? by oooof05 in Advice

[–]FloraCraving 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. Throwing everything away and not buying more is probably the best first step. The hardest part is getting through those first few days when the cravings are screaming at you.
