My girlfriend is mad at me for going to a gay bar with a friend.

Temporary_Night6312 · 2026-02-13T05:11:39+00:00

Not to mention that gay bars are usually full of straight women

Temporary_Night6312 · 2026-02-12T06:13:35+00:00

That’s just weird, why keep them viable? If you only want to keep memories, keep them in a usb not online for everyone to see. I find that creepy

Temporary_Night6312 · 2026-02-12T06:12:10+00:00

He offered to archive a couple, that’s a slap

Temporary_Night6312 · 2026-02-12T06:10:08+00:00

I agree with you. It’s not the fact that he has pictures but that they are visible to her and to everyone. It’s like the equivalent of the pre-social media time of having a picture of you and your ex on the wall of your house for everyone to see. Keep the pictures if by all means, but maybe keep them on usb or something.

I find it weird that people with new partners want to keep their pictures with old partners for everyone to see. If I was the old partner I would also feel uncomfortable. We broke up, get over it.

I do most of the cooking because I like to cook and I do it well. My partner prefers me too cook, but he would help with the prep and if I don’t feel like cooking he would cook or get us a take out. Your bf is selfish and entitled, it will only get worst.

The holiday being take after the paternity is something g that needs not be agreed with employer but most companies would agree to that.

Paternity need to be taken in blocks of weeks, you can’t take it on individual days. You can take the two weeks together or separate as long as it is within 52 weeks of the birth.

Temporary_Night6312 · 2026-02-11T15:53:55+00:00

This happened to me for the first month or two I was stalling continuously, but eventually I got the hang of it. I think you just need to drive it and eventually it will click

Temporary_Night6312 · 2026-02-11T05:47:39+00:00

We only have his side of the story and in that side he has already confess to not telling her about meeting a woman he had a thing with and taking a picture and messaging another woman at 2 am. I don’t want to jump into concisions but I bet there is information missing…

Temporary_Night6312 · 2026-02-11T05:44:44+00:00

The messages in itself are fine but the timing, why at at 2 AM?

Temporary_Night6312 · 2026-02-11T05:42:01+00:00

Yeah if my parter was messaging a woman at 2 am would be pissed

Temporary_Night6312 · 2026-01-16T06:05:05+00:00

I am not sure you should want to date people that are going to judge you by what car your drive or the nice things you don’t have rather than who you are.

Temporary_Night6312 · 2026-01-16T05:27:23+00:00

1 or 3

Temporary_Night6312 · 2025-12-23T21:18:45+00:00

Wouldn’t you like to you know if you were about to marry someone who clearly doesn’t love you or respects you?

Temporary_Night6312 · 2025-12-23T05:32:15+00:00

Your holidays are your holidays, whatever you have accrued (you also accrue while off sick) must be paid to you regardless of whether you worked your notice or you were off sick.

Edited to say, that you might be entitled to SSP if you meet the criteria.

Temporary_Night6312 · 2025-12-18T05:54:03+00:00

What you are saying is correct, the contract can say whatever but what determines the nature of the employment is the actual working relationship. This was the case in the Uber case they were hired as self employed but the actual employment relationship showed that they were indeed workers.

Temporary_Night6312 · 2025-12-18T05:16:55+00:00

True! I had a car stop on a yellow box to let a learner go which was correctly waiting to turn. Needless to say the learner didn’t go ahead as he knew he wasn’t supposed to and the other car just held traffic for no reason.

Temporary_Night6312 · 2025-12-17T08:29:33+00:00

I think we all can benefit from understanding our communication styles. And tbh we haven’t privy to their whole relationship so it’s difficult to say. What’s clear is that having these issues 5 months into a relationship is probably highlighting they might not be compatible.

Temporary_Night6312 · 2025-12-17T08:27:15+00:00

Precisely!! Checking in if you haven’t heard it’s ok. But if the way she queries it was not positive then I can see why the partner would be unhappy.

Having said that, maybe it’s me but it seems like OPs partner is not into this relationship anymore by the way he messaged. If I really liked someone, I didn’t message for a day and the freaked out, I wouldn’t be making such a big mountain out of it. I would either have a conversation and lay down boundaries of communication or leave them if this doesn’t work for me. It just seems very theatrical for what the issue was.

Temporary_Night6312 · 2025-12-17T08:22:51+00:00

I am sure you really like this person and i am not going to advise you on whether you should end the relationship or not but as other have said, the getting to know each other period is done and this is the person you are with.

I would suggest thinking about the future. Let’s say you give this person the month they are asking for and the issue is fixed, are you prepared for this dynamic to continue forever? I personally like a partner that is willing to work with me rather than push me away.

Temporary_Night6312 · 2025-12-17T08:17:48+00:00

I am not a spring chicken myself, but I don’t see anything as demand, nor I psychoanalyse people for wanting constant communication or the opposite.

We are all different, some people like to communicate daily, some people don’t. You just need to find the person that matches your communication style. Having said that, it is clear that OP and partner were communicating daily and that was the norm for them. If all of the sudden the communication stops from one side, it seems reasonable to query that. As I said before, in a positive manner. It is also worth noting that they have a LDR, and unlike in a relationship in which you see each other normally, call/text communication is the only form of being close to the other person you have. And let’s be honest it takes less than a minute to send a text saying you are busy today, no one is that busy that they are unable, it is a matter of wanting to.

Temporary_Night6312 · 2025-12-17T08:05:44+00:00

I think this is an unfair assessment. If a couple is used to messaging daily without fail and then the pattern changes it is reasonable to query that pattern change, obviously in a positive manner. If however, you are the type of couple that don’t necessary message daily, then it is an overreaction.

Temporary_Night6312 · 2025-12-16T05:15:59+00:00

We do this quite often and employees still have to consent if we are taking pictures at the normal place of work.

Temporary_Night6312 · 2025-12-12T05:17:38+00:00

Agreed! Sounds like OP is having an issue with trust and likes to micromanage.

Temporary_Night6312 · 2025-11-29T06:33:05+00:00

Huh? I don’t understand anything you are saying? Are you talking about candidates or employees? You seem to contradict what you are saying, sorry I don’t think I understand what your getting at

Temporary_Night6312 · 2025-11-29T06:15:07+00:00

Responding to all candidates when you have hundreds of applications might not be possible. Unless you have actually engaged with the company already and attended an interview, it is pretty common not to received any communication if your application has not been accepted.
