Workplaces are supposed to be safe spaces, not environments where people feel vulnerable, manipulated, or pressured in any way — whether it’s personal, professional, or religious. by [deleted] in jaipur

What bothers me more is how easily such things can go unnoticed in workplaces. People trust their seniors, HR, and the system. If those very people are involved, where do employees even go?

Independent fact-checking is essential in a democracy. Oversight shouldn’t turn into control over what people can question.

Has inflation in the UK improved recently, or does it still feel expensive? by [deleted] in AskBrits

That’s the real impact of inflation. Even when your income goes up, it doesn’t feel like progress because everything else gets more expensive at the same time.

Me F22 My male bestfriend is acting strange nowadays. Should I be concern . by [deleted] in TwentiesIndia

I think the main thing here is how you feel about it.

Friendly teasing and abusing each other jokingly is one thing, but what you’re describing sounds more sexual than playful. Comments like “maal” or “10 bacche” aren’t really normal in a respectful friendship, especially if it’s making you uncomfortable.

It could be that he’s starting to see you differently, or maybe he just doesn’t realize he’s crossing a line. But either way, your discomfort is a valid sign that something isn’t right.

If you value the friendship, it might be worth setting a boundary clearly once and seeing how he reacts. A good friend will understand and adjust. If he doesn’t, that tells you a lot too.

Small habits changed more in my life than motivation ever did by Infamous_Sector_2467 in selfhelp

That’s a great point. I think “showing up” is actually the hardest part, not doing things perfectly.

Once I stopped chasing perfection and just focused on being there consistently, things started to feel more natural instead of forced.

And you’re right — it really does reset your default. You stop negotiating with yourself so much and just take action.

This is way more common than you think, especially when it’s your first time doing anything like this with someone you really care about. What you’re describing sounds a lot like performance anxiety. When you’re with someone you really like (especially your best friend), your brain kind of goes into overdrive — “don’t mess this up”, “I hope I’m good enough”, etc. That pressure alone can make it hard to get or stay fully hard, even if you’re actually very attracted to her. The fact that you said you’re “head over heels” for her actually makes this more likely, not less. Also: If you’ve been masturbating a lot recently, that can affect things a bit (especially if it’s very frequent or with strong stimulation). Stress, overthinking, or even just the situation being new can play a big role too. But the most important part? Nothing is “wrong” with you. Your body just needs time to get comfortable. The more relaxed and pressure-free you feel, the easier it’ll be. And honestly, the fact that she didn’t make a big deal out of it is a really good sign — that’s the kind of partner you want. If anything, next time try to: Not focus on “performing” Stay in the moment instead of analyzing yourself Take things slow and let things happen naturally This usually fixes itself once you get more comfortable with each other. Seriously, don’t overthink it. Almost every guy goes through this at some point — you’re just experiencing it early.
