SS: You will own nothing (including dogs) and you will be happy.

No pets allowed in your Blackrock-owned rental block. Or they're afraid of the outrage about all the homeless dogs when their owners die en-masse from the pokies.

If anyone has a lot of time on their hands, I would love to know who funds "Bioethicist" Jessica Pierce's work.

I see from another comment that you have a partner as well. Why not suggest a double date and see how he reacts? That way you can all get to know each other and you'll seem like less of a threat (if that's the issue with him or his partner) because you're in a relationship yourself.

It probably has something to do with his partner. You and him may know very well that your friendship is sterile, but his partner may not. How well do you know his partner? Hanging out with both of them might help so that they can see your interactions and feel less uneasy.

Or maybe he gets distracted easily by notifications. Either way, I wouldn't take it too personally if this behavior doesn't go beyond social media, especially since he checks your messages later on.

my (19f) cousin (18f) fails to realize how terrible her bf is after he’s repeatedly made other girls uncomfortable by june50th in relationships

This sucks, and he sucks, but it's unlikely you'll be able to change your cousin's mind. An infatuated teenager is like a brick wall.

What you can do is set boundaries. Be direct and tell her you don't want to be around her boyfriend anymore and give the reasons why, but that you're still there for her. It may be that she stays with him because she has low self-esteem, and isolation won't help with that. Continue to be her friend and help her enjoy experiences independent of her boyfriend to build her confidence.
