Karma does happen:
My dad was a married woman's other guy for only a few weeks (about a decade before my mum met him), then realised he wasn't okay with helping her betray her husband. His friend became her other guy, husband came home while they were at it, the guy jumped out of the window and the husband knew, so grabbed a bicycle, chased him and punched him once, going 20mph, so it knocked him out. A couple of relationships later, after getting £15,000 in debt to help a woman leave her abusive husband and getting in a relationship with her, my dad came back from a holiday with his parents and found her with another guy. |

A. 2 March 2017: Nothing anybody says will change your mind because you've stayed for roughly 1/4 of your whole life. You're here to have somebody tell you it's okay, he'll leave his wife, but he won't. Even if he did, you can't trust him because he cheated with ... (read in full...)
Can you teach an Aspie how to make friends?

A. 2 March 2017: For what it's worth, you don't have to be gay or bisexual to be attracted to transgender people of the opposite gender to you.

A. 2 March 2017: Self-diagnosed means nothing. Diagnosing conditions needs to be left to professionals - a condition left undiagnosed by a professional is invalid. You may have Aspergers, but you may not and you can't diagnose it yourself.

A. 26 February 2017: Your children will need to be exposed to safe sex education when they're 13+ because the more clueless they are, the more likely you are to find yourself being a young grandmother. It's your job as their parent to teach them responsible things, even ... (read in full...)

A. 23 February 2017: I never said a kink was bad, but sucking a breast is more like sucking a toe, than a baby breastfeeding.

A. 22 February 2017: Proposing after 6 months is a red flag - it's too soon. You're still new to each other.
Also, you can't save "most of sex" for marriage - you've blown that by having sex now. There's nothing wrong with pre-marital sex, but you must use condoms ... (read in full...)
