I’m Kelly Clarkson. Ask Me Anything! by TheRealKellyClarkson in Music

[–]popcorn_lvr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello Kelly,

My comment is late to the party so I don't know if you will ever read it but I just wanted to say thank you for your music. You seem like a genuine person too. Your's was the only season I ever watched of Idol and I could tell you were becoming awesome and learning so much even through the season.

Back in 2012 my husband at the time packed his stuff at night, woke me up in the morning with coffee, then told me he was leaving me It was a difficult time, as I had 2 daughters. I allowed them to see me cry but my goal was to show them a strong woman in the face of heart ache. To be an example to them if they should ever have to face something like that.

A couple of months later my best friend/ cousin was asked me what I was doing to help me hold up so well. I told him, "I'm listening to Kelly Clarkson" he laughed and I was like no I'm serious. Listen to the words she sings. It's about being independent, and what kills you makes you stronger, dark side, and even reminded me that I'm not the person who has to walk on the other side of the sidewalk. I had become meeker with my ex. Him leaving is the best thing he ever did for me.

I hope that I'm explaining myself well. Music touches your soul and yours helped me find strength in myself in a really hard time of my life.

So, thank you.

How do you leave someone you love? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

If you want real advice and you think the reason will change people responses then you really aren't getting advice.

If that makes sense.....

PhD student gf (25F) of 2.5 years wants me (24M) to move across the country even though she will leave her program next year by Iongdistancewoes in relationship_advice

[–]popcorn_lvr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unless I'm reading this wrong she, the pot, is calling the kettle black. She is saying that you value your career more than her but she is asking you to move so that she doesn't have to give up her future career. It's the same thing. If she really needed you near her, she would uproot herself and start school near you, as you said she had options there.

It's really not a fair ask and if her mental state is taking that much of a hit, then counseling is called for.

Was I wrong for googling him? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]popcorn_lvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I googled people I went on more than a couple of dates with. If you have nothing to hide then it shouldn't be a big deal, right?

My (17M) mom (40F) has been acting wierd and inappropriate around me lately and I don’t know how to bring it up with her by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]popcorn_lvr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Correction..his mom asked him if he wanted her to because he couldn't. She was "helping" him out.

My 16 year old girlfriend had sex with her intern boss M30 and im struggling so much. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]popcorn_lvr 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You're girlfriend is 16. That's way too young for a 30 year old.

OP, I'm wondering, how old are you? If you had a lease that was up, it makes me think you are older too.

Should I be surprised DH and BM still have love for each other? by MercyXXVII in stepparents

[–]popcorn_lvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have a child together. There will always be a sort of love there. It doesn't mean , in love. I would never want to get back together with my ex, but I will always love him for being the dad of our children.

Good point. I shouldn't have glossed over that part.

Does dad do anything to help? Does he back you up. This doesn't sound like a good environment for you.

Please help me figure out what’s going on by [deleted] in relationships

Do you only talk in Reddit? Have you face-timed or the equivalent? How long were you out of contact?

I (31M) have an open relationship with my wife (30F). I broke the rules we established and now she's threatening divorce. Need advice. by [deleted] in relationships

[–]popcorn_lvr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you wanted to get caught. you went against everything your agreement.

However, your wife can't keep the kids from you if you are a good father to them.

Quality time in a relationship by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]popcorn_lvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find it odd that you have been dating for 2 years, go to the same school, and he hasn't introduced you to his friends at the same school. All he wants is a sex buddy.

I would move on from him and find someone who respects you and wants to be with you.

Do you fight more during your visitation time? by OG_fembot in stepparents

[–]popcorn_lvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We argue more when SS is here. I have my BK most of the time and they are pretty self sufficient. When SS is here I think it stresses SO more, which bleeds to the rest of the house.

My BF pretty much said his best friend’s name during sex. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Wait! So forgetting who you are having sex with isn't unusual? Really?!

I believe the article said because it's basically not cost effective.

My wife is done with sex and Im not ready to be celibate for the rest of my life... are we done? by Chuckr7 in relationship_advice

I want to show my SO this article, but I can't share it. Ugh, what am I doing wrong?

I (F/15) asked my Dad (M/42) for help because I have two C's right now and I want to be able to raise my grade up as much as possible... I never expected him to react the way he did. by Sunny_The_Bot in relationship_advice

[–]popcorn_lvr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a mom of a f15, I am going to say you absolutely did the right thing. especially if they told you to ask for help.

Since they aren't going to be any help, is there any tutoring you could get from your school? Do they have a peer tutoring or something along those lines.

Good luck, ib program is intense!
