Sometimes doing a good deed can get out of hand. At first, you do it because you can and because it has a positive impact on the other person; then you begin to wonder whether the positive impact would be to let that same person be aware of their reality and where they stand, even though it can hurt a little at first.

There are always many sides to a story, and depending on which you tell it from, it benefits one side or the other. In this son’s particular case, I don’t think it’s even that problematic; the person he messed with was doing something bad. He wonders whether or not he should have stepped into the situation at all.

Son defends father of being kicked out by digging into coordinator's records and finding shady information: 'My dad says I did the right thing but part of me wonders if I shouldve just let him handle it his own way instead of getting involved like that'

Haven’t we all done something like this in high school? Pretending to really like a band for someone to notice us, becoming a skater to belong in a group, dyeing our hair because our crush likes blondes…OK, I might have gone too personal there, but this is an example of the same type of behaviour. Instead of about a crush, it’s about a father-in-law’s approval. In the end, it’s all the same, a never-ending search for love. I'm feeling romantic today, lol.

Man spends 4 years pretending to have an obsession with a very niche hobby just to get his father-in-law's approval: 'For the first year, we sat in agonizing silence during every family gathering. I was desperate'

When your family thinks you're too young to demand your own bed The practical explanation might be simple: ‘They’re the youngest, they’re more flexible, they’ll manage’. Sometimes, when you are the youngest sibling, you’re forced to remain in a babyfied position. This is probably not on purpose; it’s just a way of functioning that got stuck when you were a baby.

24-year-old youngest sister refuses to go on family vacation due to sleeping arrangements: 'Since I am the youngest sibling, I have to put up with whatever option was the most inconvenient'

I love you, therefore I feed you Food can look different in different cultures, but it always means practically the same thing. Humans have gathered around food since forever and have also constructed countless rituals surrounding it. Feeding is one of our first contacts with the world around us when we’re babies and are fed by our mothers. Most of the time, food signifies love, community, connection, nurture, interdependence, etc.
