Once upon a time, we all benefited from going to therapy. It was a perfect time when people were actually working on themselves and not trying to learn buzzwords to throw at other people's faces when they were frustrated about something. Therapy has now become a place to absolve oneself of responsibility and lear

People react to not having money in the most random ways. Sometimes it’s easier to have a fight with someone than for them to admit they don’t want to pay you back because it’s too much money for them, and not because of some rationalization about a cat’s health, lol. Either way, when someone pushes back t

21-year-old woman drives her friend’s pet to a vet appointment at 4am, pays for it, and her friend says she isn’t going to pay her back: ‘ She thinks we should split the bill because I made a financial decision on his medicine that she didn’t agree to’

I don’t think this revenge went as well as this Redditor thinks it did, but as I always say: The revenge is for the avenger’s pleasure, nothing more. We should always remember to keep it silly so we don’t hurt anybody. Either way, this avenger reestablished the balance of the universe by doing this, and we’re all v

It’s the same as living together; one thing is to be friends with somebody, but making routines and habits work together peacefully is another. Living together has its own downside because you can’t just ‘go home’ and escape the situation; the situation is quite literally inside your home, but travelling is pretty much the sam

‘She’d get anxious over what we should do. Once we did choose something, she’d try to one up the plans we’d already made’: Woman insists on going on second trip with friend while she looks for a way to reject her

This is by far the weirdest fight I've ever heard in a roommate situation, so much so that I started creating theories in my mind to determine why I don’t think this friend is being truthful about her motives to keep her friend outside her workplace. Even if we give her the benefit of the doubt, all the problems she presents are solvable, so why not try that? I don’t think she is in a position to discuss much, but let’s see.

Woman refuses to allow roomie to work in the same restaurant as her: 'I want to take the job is because we just spent the last six hours after I worked eight hours trying to come up with the rest of the money needed that you were supposed to make’

Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about when it’s the right time to express ourselves. Sometimes, a problem arises, and we speak too quickly, at a time when everyone involved is defensive and nobody understands what’s really going on. Other times, we decide to speak when it’s too late, and we hurt someone for a long time with our sile

Woman abruptly ends a friendship over a comment from social media. After some time, the friend wonders why she never spoke to her about it: ‘I just accepted that we had become more casual friends. But instead of saying that, I made up some dumb excuse.’

When friendships consist of trios, it’s only natural that sometimes two of the people involved team up and the other gets left out. I’m not saying it’s ok; I’m saying it happens. I have many long-term friendship trios that have evolved in many ways through the years, sometimes leaving me out, sometimes leaving somebody else out, and sometimes being

Closure is a funny thing; it’s never entirely clear to us what we are trying to find when we’re looking for it. Oftentimes we want to express our side of the story before we let go of the other person completely; other times, we’re secretly hoping to reignite a friendship or a past love affair; but every time it’s a
