Am I just jealous of his ex?

Answered by Honeypie + on 27 April 2024.

Honeypie agony auntQ.   A long time FWB had open heart surgery recently. I told him I would help with whatever I could when he gets home as he lives alone. His ex-wife stepped in and started filling up his refrigerator, took care of his cat, and has been there every night ...

A.   27 April 2024: You are an FWB, she is an ex-WIFE - big difference. I get why you feel less important, because you are less important to him. He is #1, the ex wife (because she knows what he likes and how to take care of him, she is familiar) is#2 and you aren... (read in full...)

Honeypie agony auntQ.   My partner of 4 years just ended things with me, I'm absolutely heartbroken. I thought wee were okay. Yeah wee had problems but always worked through them, he was good with my daughter too. It's not just that he ended it he ended it in the most ...

Is there anything wrong with me skipping my high school reunions?

Answered by anonymous on 27 April 2024.

Q.   My 20 year high school reunion is coming up in a few months. I never made any of my reunions (5 year reunion, 10 year reunion, or my 15 year reunion). I was bullied by a few students and most of the students just acted like I didn't exist. T...

A.   27 April 2024: The only reason for people to try to get you to those reunions is for their gain, not yours. They are being nosy, or curious, however you wish to put it. They want closure on how you turned out. They aren't thinking of you, they're thinking of ... (read in full...)

A.   23 April 2024: Hi, I’m thinking because in the early days when he showed an interest you told him you wanted to be friends. Maybe he was hoping for more before you said that. Some men are afraid to spell their true intentions out. He might need a little push about ... (read in full...)
