I met a girl I liked a lot and we started a casual relationship, no strings attached. She doesn’t want to be with me she just wanted to get laid. But thanks for the genital herpes.

I guess you could call it friends with benefits. I was really into her and we started a casual relationship. No condoms involved. After a month of this she breaks down and tells me she has genital herpes but i shouldn’t have it because she didn’t sleep with me during an outbreak.

I wash my manhood in the shower the next day and I feel four painful bumps on it. Yeah, she gave me that crap. And never told me about it until the other day.

My mind is all over the place. I will never be able to have a normal life again. Because I had feelings for someone and we made love. I treated her so well. Even after all this she doesn’t want to be with me, she says she has too much trauma from past relationships.

She says she can cure me even though there is no cure. She says she will take care of me and cure me of the disease with some crap remedy.

My mind is balancing back and forth. maybe I am bitter she doesn’t want me for a partner. I am in pain. I loved my manhood. I had a really nice one. Now I’m ruined.

I have an appointment for an actual test but I know I have it, she admits she knows I have it. I mean it’s right there. What did I do to deserve this. I just got my life together and now this.

A netizen took to Facebook to share how she met a guy from the dating app, Tinder, and that he is charismatic, intelligent and “pretty buff”.

She said that he is 1.75m tall, above her expectation of 1.7m, but because he “appears” short due to his muscles, she is considering stopping dating him.

Here is the story:

“I’m not sure if I’m considered a superficial or realistic woman but there is something that has been bothering me ever since I started using dating apps.

I recently matched this guy on tinder. He doesn’t look tall or at least above average height but what caught my attention was his serious look, charismatic/distinctive look, his intelligence and he is pretty buff too.

After chatting with him for some time, I noticed that we have a lot in common and what’s more important is that he not only does pretty well in his field of expertise but he also has some side hustle that generates passive income.

So when we first met each other, he indeed doesn’t look tall, which I already expected but then when we were standing closer, I noticed that he is actually much taller than me (I’m 1.55m), like legit above 1.7m.

so I just casually asked him how tall he is, and he said he’s 1.75m. I was like wow, it’s unbelievable cos my expectation is just 1.7.

Cares about how others view him

For some reason, he really looks short from far. I’m not sure is it due to his muscular arms, huge upper body frame, and bulky legs. I mean who doesn’t want a muscular bf right, but as much as I enjoy being with a buff dude, I sometimes care about how others view him cos even I find him short.

We actually met up a few times. I’m not gonna lie, but he really looks short when he’s in shorts.

Should I continue dating him cos I really like a lot of his qualities and his height probably won’t matter much to me later in life, or should I stop wasting his time since he looks short but isn’t actually short?”

Editor’s note: I think you should stop dating him because you’re wasting his time and you don’t deserve him, or anyone.

A netizen shared how he has been married to his wife for almost 3 years but he doesn’t love her anymore – he said that he doesn’t dare to ask for a separation.

Here is the story:

“Hi, I got married for close to 3 years.

I don’t love my wife anymore but I don’t dare to propose a separation. I think my wedding was a big mistake.

But the house was too attractive to forgo at the time although it hasn’t fulfilled its MOP. We sleep in different rooms. Should I leave? But I don’t want to disappoint my parents.

We have no kids. I can totally see my marriage is on life support”

Editor’s note: Grow a pair and be honest with her.

Before I start I’d like to say that my gf and I are both women. We are les. I say this to hopefully preempt the ‘typical man’ comments.

This happened last month but my best friend and hers are still giving me naggins about it. We had our one year anniversary. I asked what she wanted and she told me just something romantic, a little necklace or something cute. While browsing around online I found an emulsion blender and it pinged in my head.

My gf loves cooking and always talks about all the gadgets she wants. Plus she made homemade tomato sauce and I remember her complaining how hard it was to make the sauce smooth cause she didn’t have an emulsion blender. I’m a very practical gift giver, I like to give things people will use so I bought it and was super excited to give it to her.

The day rolls around and she gives me a bottle of whiskey I’ve had my eye on for ages but could never justify the cost. I was so hyped and encouraged my gf to open hers.

She opened it and her face kinda falls and she goes ‘oh… an emulsion blender…?’ And I told her I remembered her talking about all the kitchen gadgets she wanted and was so excited to give it to her.

She kept her cool but told me while she appreciated the thought she was a little upset that it wasn’t jewellery. I was confused so she explained that she felt anniversaries should be more about romantic/sentimental gifts versus practical, that she appreciated it greatly but couldn’t lie to me that she wished it had been the necklace she pointed out to me online (it was nothing fancy, a $30 mushroom necklace).

I shared my woes with my friend and my friend thought it was hilarious that I was so inept, and that he understood why my gf was upset with her gift. Gf’s best friend also got wind of the situation and has been ribbing me with telling my gf to get back to the kitchen jokes etc.

My gf and I are fine but I know she was disappointed, and she ended up buying the necklace herself a week after I gave her the blender. So am I wrong for giving my gf a practical gift versus the necklace she wanted?

A guy shared a story about how he was approached by a chiobu insurance agent to buy insurance, and he ended up buying 3 plans because he found it hard to say no to her.

Here is the story:

“I have a problem, I turn into a r*tard when I meet beautiful women.

I am always being approached by insurance agents when I walk past mrt stations and whatnot but I always had no problem saying no.

Because they were all guys.

But then recently a chiobu insurance agent wearing damn tight and short skirt and a low cut blouse approached me and asked if I had 5 mins to spare her.

I thought to myself, 5 mins? I give you 5 hours ah.

I mean she was wearing a mask ah so I could only see half her face but her eyes disappeared when she smiles and I got sot a bit.

Then when we sat down at starbucks and she took off her mask to take a sip from her coffee, i finally saw her face.

Wah she really fking chio until i don’t know how to english.

I don’t know what happened but i ended up buying 3 insurance plans.

i bought a life insurance plan, health insurance plan and some savings plan that I have no idea about.

Do you think she will say yes if I ask her out?

A netizen shared how he gives his parents 20% of his monthly salary but then his mother accuses him of kicking her aside after he told her about his financial planning.

Here is the story:

“[How much monthly allowance do you give your parents?]

I give my parents 20% of my salary (>$700) ever since I started working two years ago, and 20% of any bonuses when I get them too.

I learnt that I give the highest percentage amongst my friends, but I’m okay with that as I can afford to and somehow this 20% proportion has been ingrained in my mind since young.

Recently, my partner and I secured a BTO. Somehow, this got me to start thinking about finances seriously. I feel that I should save more for future uses such as the wedding, honeymoon, house, renovation and any emergency spending.

I’m not engaged yet, but just generally thinking about the future and making a mental note that I have to start being more financially savvy now that we have a home (yay!).

I innocently shared this with my mum but she got angry instead and started ranting that kids nowadays only care about planning for their own future and kicking their parents aside.

I clarified that I have no intention to change or withdraw the 20% of my salary that I have been providing.

She started to demand 50% of my salary.

I only wanted to save a higher proportion of the remaining amount after setting aside the monthly allowance.

However, she insisted that I have become stingy ever since getting together with my partner and that I only cared about my own future.

Honestly, I feel quite angry at her accusations as I have not once given anything lesser than 20% of whatever I have. She also commented that I could rely on my partner and need not plan to save so much, which I do not agree with.

We should aim towards being able to support ourselves regardless of whether we have someone to rely on, isn’t it?

I really don’t know what’s wrong with children planning for their future as the point of planning ahead is to avoid having to take parents’ money for our own expenses next time.

Furthermore, I am still giving the 20% without any intention to stop, and I don’t know why she’s so defensive every time I talk about my own financial planning. Sigh.

Just wanted to get this off my chest. Thank you for hearing me out.”

Editor’s note: Your mother is afraid of losing her golden rooster to another woman.

I (35M) am a single father of 3 boys (10M, 7M and 3M).

Their mother died last year due to ovarian cancer. It has been a rough year to say the least.

My sister got divorced 6 months ago and temporarily moved in with me and the boys. She has a son, my nephew (9M) who stays with us most of the time. My nephew and my 10yro are not the best of friends, but so far they got along fine apart from some teasing from both sides. A few weeks ago my 10yro started telling me that his cousin was bullying him and being mean to him.

He called him names, pushed him around, took his video games etc. I talked to my sister many times and told her to talk to her son, we talked to the boys together and things settled down. Yesterday was my 3yro’s birthday, so my whole family was here and my late wife’s family as well. It was extremely emotional for everyone, because it was the first birthday since my wife’s been gone.

The boys (10yro and 9yro) started fighting again and I asked them both to calm down and behave. My son started crying and told me his cousin teased him about him not having a mom. I choked up and asked my nephew if that was true, and he said yes, but that he’s sorry. I figured I’d have a proper talk with him and my sister after the party, so I just told him what he said was really awful and he cannot say it again. I comforted my son and we went back to the party.

Before we cut the cake, my sister came yelling at me, saying I had no business disciplining her child. I told her to drop it and we’ll talk later, instead she said “besides, he’s right, kids need a mom”. I had tears in my eyes by that time and she just said “see, it’s even turning you into a p***”. My in-laws were crying, I was tearing up, the kids were upset, just awful. I told her to stop it and just leave me and the kids and the family to cut the cake and we will talk in the evening.

She said “listen we both lost our spouses, but at least I’m still a normal person”. She stormed off. After the party I told her she has 2 days to pack her stuff and leave.

She is begging me not to throw her out, because she and her kid will be homeless. Aita for throwing her out?

A netizen shared a story about how a fortune teller told him that he would “tio 4D” but the only “D” that he “tio” was an “STD”.

Here is the story:

“I saw a fortune teller who charged me $10 to tell my fortunes.

I have always been a believer in these kind of things and i thought to myself, since its only $10, it can’t be a scam right?

I can’t remember what he said but he mentioned that I was very “wang”, which means lucky in chinese.

He added that I would have an unexpected windfall coming my way very soon, and he advised me to do more good deeds.

Well now that he told me, it’s not longer unexpected is it?

I had my hopes up and every Wednesdays and the weekends, I would religiously buy more than $50 worth of 4D.

It has been over 3 months since that meeting with the fortune teller, and the only money that I won was a iBet consolation prize, i won $30 from a $10 bet.

And maybe the fortune teller got it wrong when he said I would “tio” something because last month i went for a health checkup and found out that I had herpes, an STD.

Tio 4D don’t have la, the only thing that I tio is STD la knn.

My life is ruined.”

Editor’s note: Although there isn’t any cure for herpes, there are anti viral medications that can help prevent outbreaks bro. This one really suay sia lol

A netizen shared how she hits her boyfriend as a form of “play”, which the guy then got angry at her because he found it annoying and they got into an argument.

She then took to Facebook to ask if all guys are really this “sensitive”.

Here is the story:

“Asking girls, do you hit your boyfriends? And guys, do you like being hit? Of course i’m not talking about actual physical abuse, i mean just playing around.

So i hit and pinch my boyfriend quite a lot. It’s just for fun, but recently he asked me if i can stop it. It actually became quite a big argument.

Can dish out but can’t take it

i said that as a guy he should be able to take it and i’m not hurting him anyway. He just said it annoys him sometimes as i do it very often, and i wouldn’t accept it if he did it to me.

I said of course not as i’m a girl, and i thought most guys like these kind of playing from their girlfriend anyway.

Asks if guys are this sensitive

It went back and forth and after that i think he just gave up and said ok do whatever you want. I don’t think i did anything wrong as he’s a guy and i’m not intending to hurt him.

Pls no big discussion about equality in the comments, i’m just wondering if all guys are really this sensitive.”

Editor’s note: You clearly have issues.
