Being a best friend is a lot, but in some people’s heads, it now means running a part-time daycare with no salary and less flexibility than a yoga instructor. It starts innocently enough, a favor here or there, but soon just a bit transforms into a standing babysitting appointment that somehow always clashes with actually …

When you’re a teenager, every friendship feels like it’s going to last forever. These are the people who get every late-night text, every overshare, every tiny crisis blown up to full-scale soap opera. It feels like the universe shrinks down to your group chat and anyone falling out means the sky is actually falling. Most …

25-year-old boyfriend refuses to pay 22-year-old girlfriend’s $70K per year college tuition, turns her nose up at his offer of $20K per year: ‘She says I’m being unsupportive’
You need to think long and hard about giving thousands of dollars to someone.

Boyfriend of 10 months asks girlfriend to lend him $7K from her 401K despite not paying her back the $250 she already lent him: ‘The first loan was a test’
He can’t even pay back $250. What makes her think she should lend him thousands of dollars? Asking for money early in a relationship is a huge red flag. If someone you’ve been dating for less than a year relies on you for financial support, they might be after your money more than they’re after …

31-year-old girlfriend making $100K expects boyfriend to pay her $40K in credit card debt, $60K in car loans, and $20K in student loans: ‘You’ll take care of my debt.’
She’s going to spend her boyfriend out of house and home. There’s a significant stigma surrounding marrying someone for money, but I believe that one can’t marry someone without first considering their financial situation. It matters much less how much someone takes home at the end of a pay period than how they manage that …

Mom scolds her 20-year-old son’s 18-year-old girlfriend because he spent money on her against his mom’s wishes: ‘I think a relationship should be you both purchasing your own things.’
You should consider yourself lucky if you’ve never been in a relationship with a mama’s boy. It’s not that I think that men who are close to their mothers are inherently nefarious, but if they value their mother’s opinion above your opinion and their own thoughts, that’s a major red flag. It’s far less common …

Chef’s boyfriend’s sister expects to use her restaurant for free for massive party, doesn’t understand why that’s not possible: ‘She assumed I could get the food covered because it’s my workplace’
Some people have sky-high expectations. They can’t help it. They expect the world to bend toward them, and they don’t care how that happens. They just expect that the world will roll out the red carpet for them wherever they go, for nothing in return. But this isn’t how life works. And at a certain …

One of the greatest joys of having a roommate is dealing with their boyfriend or girlfriend. It’s bad enough that you have to live with someone who is functionally a stranger; it’s even worse when they bring around another stranger at all hours of the day. This arrangement is manageable when you live in a …
