I had been dating my boyfriend for over a year when I first noticed a pattern in his behavior.

He had a huge ego and was always bragging about his accomplishments. He would often criticize people, including me, for not being as great as he was. This behavior was starting to really bother me, so I decided to confront him about it.

I sat him down and told him that his moronic ego was going to destroy his future. I tried to be as gentle as possible, but I was also honest. I told him that by constantly putting himself above others and being so condescending, he was only driving people away. I explained that in the long run, this behavior would limit his success, as people would be less likely to want to work with him or be around him.

My boyfriend was taken aback and felt blindsided by my words. He had no idea I felt this way. We talked through the issue and he admitted that he had been acting this way for a while, but that he hadn’t realized how it was affecting me and our relationship. He apologized and agreed to try to change his behavior.

Over the next few weeks, I noticed a marked difference. He stopped bragging and instead focused on listening to others. He also began to open up more and be more accepting of constructive criticism. I was so proud of him for taking the initiative to make such a big change.

However, as time went on, I noticed that his ego was starting to come back again. He would still brag about himself, and his condescending attitude would really hurt my feelings. I had to sit him down again and remind him of our earlier conversation. I made sure to be gentle and not accuse him of anything, but I was firm in my words conversation with him about it.

My boyfriend’s ego was definitely getting in the way of his future. If he does not change he probably does not have a future with me as well.

I am already thinking to break up with him.

P.S: Dickson if your reading this, I hope you don’t regret.

I’m a flight attendant. I’ve been working for my airline for seven years now and I’ve seen a lot of things in that time. I’ve seen happy passengers, sad passengers, and everything in between. I’ve also seen a lot of different dietary requirements. It’s my job to make sure all passengers are taken care of, no matter what their needs may be.

Dog food for vegans

That’s why I’m so frustrated when it comes to vegan passengers. I understand that some passengers are vegan for moral reasons, but it’s still my job to provide them with a meal. Unfortunately, my airline doesn’t have a wide variety of vegan options and what we do have is often sub-par. We refer to it as “dog food” because it literally comes out of a can.

We pour it onto a plate and it’s slimy.

The worse part is, they did not inform the airline that they are vegan until they boarded the plane, what genius.

It’s not just vegan passengers who get stuck with this dog food either. Vegetarians, flexitarians, and anyone who demands a plant-based meal also get served the same meal. The food is often bland and unappetizing, and it’s rarely enough to fill anyone up. It’s also loaded with preservatives and other unhealthy ingredients.

It’s not just the food that bothers me either. It’s the way we serve it that’s often worse. We don’t give vegan passengers any utensils or napkins, and we don’t offer them any other options. We simply hand them their “dog food” and tell them that’s all we have.

I understand that it’s not always easy to accommodate vegan passengers, and I’m not saying that my airline should be expected to cater to everyone’s needs. But I do think they can do better. A little bit of effort would go a long way and make a huge difference to vegan passengers.

So, if you’re a vegan passenger, remember that you deserve better than “dog food”, always request Vegan food when your booking the flight. Not until the plane takes off.

Note: I come from one of the most prestigious airlines in the world. I can’t say their name as they will fire me if I talk to the media. It happened to my colleague

I learned the hard way about the importance of having spare emergency cash when I was traveling in the United States.

I had been traveling for a few weeks, and I had been living on a very tight budget. I had budgeted out my trip so that I had just enough money to last me until I reached my destination.

Unfortunately, I hadn’t expected the unexpected. A few days into my trip, my car broke down. I was stranded in the middle of nowhere, without a way to get to where I needed to go. I had no friends or family nearby to help me out, and the nearest town was hours away. I had no choice but to call a tow truck and have my car towed back to the nearest town.

Once I reached the town, I realized that my budget was completely blown. I had no money to pay for the tow truck or for a place to stay. I was stuck and desperate. I was lucky enough to find a cheap motel that would let me stay for the night.

The experience taught me how important it is to have spare emergency cash when you’re travelling. If I had had a little bit of extra cash, I could have avoided the whole ordeal. Instead, I was stuck in a strange town with no way to get home.

Having spare emergency cash can also be helpful if you find yourself in an unexpected medical emergency. If you’re in a foreign country, it can be difficult to access the medical care you need without the right resources. Having extra cash can help you access the necessary medical care without worrying about the cost.

Having spare emergency cash can also help you if you’re ever in a bind while shopping or dining out. If you find yourself in a situation where you need a little extra cash, having some saved up can be a lifesaver. You won’t have to worry about finding a way to withdraw more money or having to take out a loan.

Finally, having extra emergency cash can also help you if you ever find yourself stranded in an unfamiliar place. If you ever find yourself without a place to stay or a way to get home, having some extra cash can help you get back on your feet.

It was a Tuesday night, my wife and I had just finished dinner when she looked at me with a very serious expression. She had been acting strange all day, but I had no idea what was coming.

“I’m done with your cheating.” she began. “I’ve had enough of your excuses and lies. You’re going to get fat so that I know you won’t cheat on me.”

At first I was in disbelief. Was she serious? Did she really think that by making me fat I wouldn’t cheat on her? I wanted to laugh but I could tell from her expression that she was dead serious.

“What do you mean? How am I supposed to get fat?” I asked.

“You’re going to double your calorie intake and stop exercising. You’re going to get fat and stay fat until I know that I can trust you.”

FIRSTLY! I DID NOT, I REPEAT I DID NOT CHEAT ON HER

I was in shock. I couldn’t believe that she was serious, but I could see that she was. I had no choice but to agree. I knew that if I didn’t, she would leave me. So, I reluctantly agreed to her plan.

I had no idea how I was going to do it, but I knew I had to try. I started by eating more and cutting out exercise. I was already eating a lot, but I started eating even more. I started eating junk food, fast food, and anything else I could get my hands on. I also stopped going to the gym and working out.

It didn’t take long for the weight to start piling on. I was eating more calories than I was burning and it showed. Within a few months, I had gained over 15 kilo. I was fat.

My wife was happy. She had succeeded in making me fat and I was sure that I wouldn’t cheat on her. But I was wrong.

I decided to cheat, cause I was not happy, I was being controlled like a puppet

Despite being fat, I still found ways to cheat on my wife. I started going out with my friends and meeting up with women behind her back. I thought that because I was fat, she wouldn’t be able to tell if I was cheating. I was wrong.

She eventually found out and was understandably angry. She had gone to all the trouble of making me fat and I had still cheated on her. I felt terrible and promised to never do it again.

I told her as long as she don’t try to control me I wont cheat. But she still controls me everynow and then..

My wife and I are still together and I try my best to be faithful. I’ve since lost the weight.

I was having dinner with my girlfriend of two months when she reached for her phone and started scrolling through her messages. Then, she handed it to me and said, “Look at this message my friend sent me.” On the screen was a picture of a shiny new credit card.

My girlfriend then said, “Would you mind getting me one of those?”

I was taken aback. We had just started dating and she was already asking me for a line of credit? In my mind I was thinking, “Haven’t marry already like that, I better run from this kind of woman”.

I politely declined her request, citing that it was too soon to be discussing financial matters. She seemed a bit disappointed but I reassured her that I was more than happy to discuss such things when we were both more comfortable with our relationship status.

The next day, my girlfriend asked me again for the credit card. This time, she gave me a long list of reasons why she needed it: she wanted to buy a new laptop, take a vacation with me, and purchase a few new outfits for work. I was still hesitant but she kept pushing me, saying that she would pay me back in installments.

I finally caved and agreed to get her the card. I did so reluctantly, still harbouring the thought that I was making a mistake by giving her the card. I was afraid that she would overspend or that I would be stuck with the debt if things went sour.

The next few weeks went by without incident, and my girlfriend seemed to be using the card responsibly. She was paying off her purchases each month and I was relieved to see that she was taking her debt seriously.

However, it wasn’t long before she began asking for more and more credit. She wanted to buy a new car, a new wardrobe, and a weekend getaway. Each time, she was so convincing that it was hard to say no.

I kept giving in, every time telling myself that I was doing the right thing by supporting her. But deep down, I was worried that I was enabling her to become dependent on me.

I eventually reached a breaking point. I had to make a decision: either continue to support her financially or put my foot down and risk losing the relationship. I had to be honest with myself and admit that I was afraid of commitment and I had to be honest with her about it.

So I told my girlfriend that I could no longer keep up with her demands for credit. I explained that I wanted to take things slow and that I didn’t feel comfortable with her asking for so much money.

To my surprise, she was understanding and agreed to take things more slowly. We agreed to go on a few dates without discussing money and to take time to get to know each other better.

In the end, my girlfriend and I ended up taking a break from each other. We still talk occasionally but we are not in a relationship anymore. Looking back, I’m glad that I was honest with her about my feelings and that I stood my ground. It was the best decision I could have made for myself and for our relationship.

It is much better to be honest and upfront about finances than to be taken advantage of.

I let my boyfriend when I was 19 take out a cell phone in my name. After a terrible break up I got a phone call about the almost $1k bill he rang up calling Adult lines and allowing his mom to make international calls. When I called him about it he basically told me to eff off. Valuable lesson learned — do not let people take anything out in your name, you’re stuck paying for it no matter how unfair it is.

I was 19 and in love for the first time. I had been dating my boyfriend for about a year, and he wanted to get an iPhone. He had been unable to get his own phone due to his bad history with Singtel, so I decided to let him take out a phone in my name. It was a decision that I came to regret.

Fast forward a few years and we had broken up. I had completely forgotten about the phone and had moved on with my life. Then, one day, I got a phone call from a collections agency. They informed me that my boyfriend had run up an almost $1,000 bill on the phone. Apparently, he had been calling Adult lines and had also allowed his mother to make international calls.

When I called him about it, he basically told me to eff off. He was unapologetic and unrepentant. He said that he had paid for the phone and that it was none of my business what he did with it.

I was furious, but there was nothing I could do except pay the bill. It felt so unfair, but I had learned a valuable lesson: never let people take out anything in your name, because you’ll be the one stuck paying for it.

It took me a long time to pay off the bill, and it left a lasting impression on me. I learned to be very careful about who I allowed to take out things in my name. I also learned that I had to be even more careful if I was in a relationship.

It was an unfortunate experience, but it taught me to be more responsible with my finances.

It’s been over a decade since that happened and I’m still wary of letting anyone take out anything in my name. I’ve learned to be more assertive and to speak up if I’m feeling uncomfortable about a situation. I’ve also learned that sometimes it’s better to say no than to get into a situation you can’t get out of.

I had been walking around town for a couple of hours, and I was getting tired. I thought to myself, “I should find a massage parlor and relax for a bit.” I walked around the corner and saw a sign for a massage parlor. I thought “why not?” and walked in.

Distinct Smell

As I entered the massage parlor, I noticed a distinct smell. It was a sweet smell, but not a pleasant one. It smelled like cheap baby soap. Instantly, I knew what was coming (HEHEHEHEHHEHE).

I asked the woman at the counter what type of massage they offered and she told me they had Thai, deep tissue, and reflexology. I decided to try the Thai massage, and she led me to a room.

The massage was quite relaxing. After a while, I started to feel my eyes getting heavy and I knew I was about to fall asleep. She suddenly stopped and said, “Boss, you want?”

I was a bit confused (Act blur more fun), She proceeded to tell me that the massage parlor I was in was known for providing “special services” to customers.

I asked her what she meant by “special services” and she told me that the massage parlor was offering S services to customers.

It cost an additional $200 for a full service, BUT! Although it is quite pricey but the quality of the skills and her looks was top notch.

Top of the shelve quality!

As she proceeded to do the deed, I closed my eyes and I thought I had gone to heaven and enjoyed the moment.

Soapy up and down my body with her goddess like body. It was money well spent.

But it is really like this, if you smell some cheap baby soap always got ‘special’ one.

I used to be a big fan of instalment payments. I thought I had the power of money at my fingertips and I could buy anything I wanted.

Loaning

Little did I know that I was digging myself into a deep hole of debt.

It started out small. I bought a new phone, a laptop, and a new car. All using instalment payments. I thought I was doing the right thing: I was taking advantage of the lower prices, the convenience of paying over time, and I was taking advantage of the offers that I got.

Little did I know that I was slowly building up a mountain of debt. The longer I kept going with the instalment payments, the more debt I had. I started to get emails and calls from creditors asking for money. I tried to make payments but it was never enough and the interest kept piling up.

I was stuck in a vicious cycle. I was desperately trying to pay off my debt but I just couldn’t keep up with the payments. I was maxing out my credit cards and taking out more loans. It felt like I was never going to get out of this mess.

The final straw was when I got a notice from the bank that I was in default on my loan. That’s when I knew I had to make a change.

I started by cutting back on my expenses. I stopped using my credit cards and I started paying off my debt in full each month. I also started using cash instead of credit and I made sure to only buy things I could afford.

It was hard at first, but I kept pushing through. I made a budget and stuck to it. I started tracking my expenses and I prioritized my debt payments.

Slowly but surely, I started to make progress. I paid off my loans and credit cards and slowly but surely my debt started to shrink.

Alot of shops out there offer installment plans and it makes it look easy to afford, but end up all die.
