Giving a gift can be a beautiful way to show someone how much they mean to you. It can also be an unwitting flashpoint for relationship drama. When you’re dating someone, gifts are tricky. Say you’ve been seeing somebody regularly for 2 months, but you haven’t defined anything relationship-wise. Their birthday is coming up. And …

‘I cannot bring children into a world like this’: Couple of 8 years breaks up because they never discussed whether they wanted kids
Asking the person you’re dating whether they want kids can be daunting, especially if you’re both super young. I can tell you that I was not asking my high school sweetheart whether they wished to have kids with me. I could barely plan a date beyond eating a scrumptious meal at Raising Cane’s! As you …

‘Anyone saying that does not have real friends irl’: Twitter users decry the overuse ‘therapy-speak’ in real-life friendships
One of the hardest parts of being in an intimate relationship with someone is setting boundaries.

‘I’m not paying for your mistake’: Woman gets a speeding ticket while driving her boyfriend’s car, then demands he takes the blame
This might be an unpopular opinion, but I don’t think 16-year-olds should be permitted to drive yet, and I definitely don’t think their parents should buy them a car when they first pass their driver’s test. Driving is a huge responsibility, and when people are driving, they are not only responsible for their own lives, …

‘So NOW he wants to benefit from your hobby?’: Food influencer’s hater boyfriend wants in on her free food but won’t stop hating
Influencers. Whether you like them or not, they’re here to stay, and they’re all around us. I feel like everyone is an influencer nowadays.

‘My son and I have resorted to locking up [our things]’: Chronic donator gives away her husband’s tent, he charges her $300 for it
Giving things away can come from a kind place. If your best friend mentions that she needs to buy a turkey baster and you have an extra turkey baster that you never use, it would be foolish not to give it to her. However, just because someone is generous on the outside doesn’t mean they’re …

‘Boyfriend makes 230k more than me’: Freelance artist is hurt by boyfriend asking her to contribute rent
If there are two things that don’t mix well, it’s love and money. Financial woes can be the undoing of even the strongest couples. It’s nice to help each other out, but exactly what that means can be tough to figure out, especially if you’re in a financially uneven partnership. They say opposites attract, so …

You should strike a certain balance when buying gifts for an expecting mother. She’s going through a massive shift in her life, and you don’t want to reduce her to this new duty she’s taking on. If I was pregnant and the only things people could think to get me for Christmas were novelty t-shirts …

«You’re not supportive»: Bookworm asks boyfriend to make him a book advent calander for Christmas, boyfriend totally shuts him down
It’s a bit awkward to ask your partner to do an expensive romantic gesture for you. Usually, it has to come from within. When I was in high school, I was dating a Jewish person and decided to get them eight gifts for all of the eight days of Hannukah. If you’re Jewish, you know …
