GUY HIT ON MARRIED WOMAN IN GYM WITH HUSBAND AROUND

0

A guy shared a story of an encounter which he once had in the gym while he was hitting on a woman who looks around the same age as him when masked on.

He shares that he usually sees the woman with a older looking gentleman working out together and thought that he was her father but after hitting on the woman, he realises his mistake and that he is actually her father.

Here is the story

“I was at the gym, per usual, when I see this cute girl with an older gentlemen starting their exercises near me.

From my point of view (I’m 19) the girl, who was wearing a mask, looked to be around my age. The guy she was with had grey hair and wrinkles and looked to be in his early 50’s or so.

I mistakenly presume him to be her dad. He goes and does his own thing, when me an her are still exercising in relatively close proximity.

Naturally we make pretty intense eye contact and I smile at her. When I finished my exercise I walk up to her to make small talk, she was friendly but a little weirded out by the convo.

She takes her mask off to clarify something and she visibly looks a lot older now, maybe mid 30’s (def not 19).

Anyways I strike up the question, “the guy you were with, is he your father?” To which he replies “No, that’s my husband” and then “why do you ask”.

I’m like “I just thought you were cute” she replies “oh sorry”

Awkward. I walk away kind of laughing because I’m fucking baffled, I literally broke down laughing for no reason while doing my next exercise bicep curls (maybe some kind of coping mechanism).

Maybe I’m a psychopath but when her husband came back she was presumably telling her husband about the extraordinary conversation she had experience while pointing in my general direction.

I smiled back and gave some sort of “my bad bro” wave.

Honestly I’m not even embarrassed, when I probably should be, this is the funniest thing to happen to me all year.”

GUY WANTED TO DATE GIRL BUT BECAME WINGMAN INSTEAD

0

A guy shared a story of how he had wanted to date a girl that he always see around in the gym and proceeded to ask another guy (A) who was always hanging out with her if she was single.

(A) told him that they were only friends and he would help him ask the girl but while he was asking halfway, the girl mistook it as he was asking her out instead and told him that she has been waiting for him to ask her out for the longest time.

As a result, the guy accidentally became (A)’s wingman instead.

Here is the story

“At my gym over the past couple of months I’ve noticed a cute girl who works out around the same time I do and I was interested in asking her out, but I’m kind of awkward and I don’t approach girls in the gym.

A few times I’ve seen her talk to a guy (A) who she seems to be friends with, I haven’t seen anything romantic or flirtatious between them and I was pretty confident they weren’t together. So my awkward self decided to talk to (A) and ask him if she was single.

He said he had no idea, that they know each other because they used to work together, and have been friends ever since. As he was talking she came walking over to us, and before I could stop him he turned to ask her:

(Paraphrasing what I remember)

(A): hey are you single? Becau-

Her: God it’s about time! I have been waiting forever for you to ask me out.

(A): uh…

Her: …is that not what you were asking?

(A): yeah it is! Are you free Saturday?

Her: absolutely! Text me, I have to get going soon.

Throughout this I was just standing there like a third wheel watching like an idiot. After she left (A) turned to me with an apologetic look on his face and said he’d always had a crush on her but never acted because he didn’t want to hurt their friendship if she didn’t feel the same way.

I told him I completely understood and was happy for both of them.

All in all, -1 for me and +2 for them = net gain for love.”

GIRL SLEEPS AROUND AFTER BREAK UP, 5 MONTHS LATER ASKS FOR 2ND CHANCE

0

A netizen shared how he was dumped by his girlfriend, who then went sleeping around after 2 weeks. Then 5 months later, she asked him for a second chance.

Here is the story:

Guys and girs, so I was dumped 5 months ago. Then during this period of no contact I’m just reflecting on what I did wrong, what went wrong in our relationship. I really saw her quality to be the possible marry-able type.

The thing is, after 2 weeks of breakup, she started dating and sleeping with another possible rebound.

Now she texted me 5 months later saying she regretted her decision and ask me to give us another chance.

Do i have feelings for her? Definitely. Do I see a future with her? Definitely. But do I feel she’s dirty? Kind of. It’s hard to think how someone can go into another relationship after a breakup so quickly like our connection was nothing.

What should I do? Walk away? Take her back?

Netizens comments

  • Nope. She didn’t treasure you when you are around. Also you not recycling bin.
  • Dodged a bullet! Count yourself lucky you’re no longer with this person.
  • The dynamics in a breakup between an initiator and the ‘recipient’ are vastly different. The initiator has had plenty of time to come to terms with the split, whereas the ‘recipient’ does not.
    It may not be the case that she took your connection lightly, but rather that she had a significant head start in getting over it. The fact that she’s coming back to you doesn’t support the notion that she treats your connection as nothing.
    Technically, she did nothing wrong in that she hooked up with someone else only after breaking up with you. Is sleeping with her boyfriend wrong? Should it attract condemnation?
    People change, people grow. Whether or not you are willing to give her a second chance is really up to you. If you’re able to get over the fact that she had someone else in between, you’re likely to get a girlfriend who is more mature and cherishes the relationship way more than before.

Editor’s note: Yeap, walk away. In fact, run away and don’t look back.

GUY PROPOSED TO GF BY GETTING DOWN ON ONE KNEE & GIVING HER $2

0

A netizen shared how she had high expectations for her boyfriend’s marriage proposal and she ended up being disappointed.

Here is the story:

I guess I just need advice if I am unreasonable?

So a little bit of backstory here. My bf and I have been dating for 5 years. He criticised most men for being just not creative and so predictable about proposal, and lame about BTO, blah blah.

So yes, my expectations were much higher, that means that he would have put it more thought into it when it was his turn right? We’ve went to look at engagement rings together a few months back and I told him I can do with just a ring pop candy and a private proposal with just the two of us.

So fast forward to proposal day. He cooked my one of my favourite soup that my late mom used to make for me… that’s sweet right? So he was standing by the dining table and asked if I would like to marry him.

I didn’t answer him, because… dude didn’t even get on one knee, not even my ring pop candy (he told me he cannot find but I found it online), so I was utterly disappointed. I gave him 15 minutes, go get me my “token of love” and redo the proposal. LMAO i know.

Moments later, he shaved his face, got down on one knee and passed me a $2 note. No sweet nothings on why he would want to spend the rest of his life with me. I accepted his proposal because I love him and really want to spend the rest of my life together with him.

Not sure if you’ve noticed, but for me, my social feed is just filled with people who’ve recently got engaged. Just made me compare why other men can put in a bit more effort and he doesn’t. It just made me feel that he does not cherish me enough to at least get me my $2.50 ring pop candy and get down on one knee.

I’m still super upset, I cried sometimes thinking about it, I kid you not.I am not sure why he even bothered to ask me about my ideal proposal when he just didn’t live up to it.

He just said “Not everyone can get what they want.” I can’t even tell anyone close to me that “I’m engaged”, because, erm… am I? It’s a funny story to tell, but I seriously do not feel that my request was a tad bit ridiculous.

I need you guys to tell me that I was not unreasonable with my proposal request and what is he thinking?! HALP.

Editor’s note: Wait, I’m still trying to wrap my head around the $2 note…

GIRL NERVOUS ON DATE PANG SAI IN HER PANTS, GUY HASN’T TEXT HER SINCE

0

So recently I started seeing this guy I have a huge crush on. He likes me back, or at least he did up until this point.

Earlier today we went on a lunch date at a restaurant. Afterwards, we walked to the park together, where we just sat and chilled. As we were having a great convo, I had to go to the bathroom, but I held it in because I assumed there would not be a bathroom nearby and I could make it until I got home.

However, as time went on, I realized I couldn’t hold it in any longer, so I asserted that I needed to use the bathroom. I checked for the nearest bathroom on my phone, which was close enough, but he offered to go with me, since it was a little ways out.

As you can imagine, this stressed me out, but I couldn’t reject his offer. So we started walking (and I did so at an embarrassingly brisk pace while wearing heels, which were killing my feet).

Unfortunately for me, he was quite close to me, and within about 7 mins of walking, I felt I could no longer hold it in. I told myself that I could make it, and that I couldn’t embarrass myself any more, especially because I only needed about 3 more mins until I made it to the bathroom.

To my demise, however, as my date was walking right next to me, I let out a shart in front of him. My heart sunk into my stomach as my date just made an involuntary expression of disgust. Quickly, he tried to compose himself, but I sharted again. I wanted to cry and run off, but he reaffirmed me that everything is ok and that accidents happen.

I just told him that I needed to go home and he said that he understands and we parted ways. He texted me if I got home but hasn’t texted me since then. I literally can’t face him anymore and the amount of embarrassment I went through feels intolerable.

Please help me.

GIRL PARANOID BECAUSE BF CHEATED BEFORE, KEEPS CHECKING HIS PHONE

0

A netizen shared how her boyfriend cheated on her before and as a result, she spent years overthinking and becoming paranoid.

Here is the story:

If a man has cheated once, will he cheat again? I have thought about this for a couple of years. I used to panic and have anxiety and wonder if he will cheat again and this had resulted in many sleepless nights. I wasted a lot of time checking his phone only to find nothing.

A few times I have broken out in cold sweat just from noticing texts which consisted of normal conversations between him female colleagues talking about work.

Since I have learnt to regulate my emotions better after therapy I don’t get triggered as badly as before and would ask him for clarification when I feel insecure. Sometimes I just wanted to know. My mind tends to go back to the past and wondered why didn’t I ask him when I had a feeling something was off.

If I did, I could have stopped it from happening. But I came back to the same conclusion each time. No matter what I do or didn’t do, it’s going to happen one way or another so it didn’t have to be this woman, it could have been any woman with the same set of loose morals.

The problem was him from the very beginning. He had loose boundaries, that’s why it happened. It was just an earthquake waiting to happen and there is nothing I could have done to prevent it.

I have heard this advice many times in the beginning just after I had discovered the affair. But it took years later to have it register into my brain and also into my heart.

No point worrying if he will cheat again. Because his actions are out of my control. I can only control my own actions. I have told him if he does this again I will be gone. Sometimes when he feel only shame and remorse I feel more alone and frustrated. Sometimes when he’s willing to carry my pain and hurt when I get triggered I feel my burden had been lifted bit by bit. It’s really was a 3 steps forward 2 steps back process.

It’s been more than 5 years. One day, I just looked at him and felt something inside me. I no longer worry if he will cheat on me again. Because I knew exactly what I was going to do when that happens. Then I realised I had already forgiven him for his infidelity. I know this is not proof that he won’t cheat again, but at least for me, my mind is finally peaceful.

Editor’s note: Well I’m glad you finally found peace, in a way.

GIRL GIVES GUY “BLUEBALLS” THEN DEMANDS FOR ATTENTION

0

I went out with a guy last week that I like, we actually met a few years ago at a bar and kissed when we had been drinking, but it didn’t progress into anything and we just stayed friends and talked occasionally on social media.

I didn’t see him for almost 2 years because I was studying overseas, but then I just moved back to Singapore, and we went out on a date last week. He was really nice, we went to dinner, he paid, and then we went to a bar to listen to some music with his friends. Afterwards, we went to his apartment and were watching TV in his bed. He didn’t try to pressure me into anything, but I could tell he probably wanted to hook up because of some of his body language. lol, but I just kinda ignored it because I didn’t feel like I know him well enough at this time to do it with him. We kissed for a while but that was it.

I haven’t heard anything from him since last week when I left his apartment. I did text him first once that day about something random but his answers were really short, so I stopped trying to make conversation. Before we went to his apartment (still during the date) he kept talking about “oh we should do this together” or “we should take this trip!” together so it seemed like he was interested in pursuing a relationship may be or at least getting to know me more.

Do you all think he just wanted to hook up and isn’t reaching out to me anymore because of it?

I feel kinda disappointed bc I feel like we had a fun time and I like spending time with him, but if he was just interested in a hookup I guess I shouldn’t be wasting my time with him anyway. I don’t know.

Here are what netizens think:

  • Maybe he felt you were uncomfortable with him?
  • Reach out and start a normal conversation. Then you will understand what he feels or needs
  • You gave him the ultimate blue balls, u kiss him went to his apartment and leave him hanging, now your expecting him to give you more effort? Give and take.
  • leave him alone. You gave him messages on date night and he interpreted them in the most respectful way possible. Now he’s given you some: you should respect them.
  • It is a great idea to try and clear it up with him. And it would be even better to start that conversation by explaining the reason for your actions, which he likely perceived as a lack of interest.

GIRL LOST HER MOTHER TO CANCER, REGRETS NOT TELLING HER “I LOVE YOU”

0

A netizen shared how she lost her mother to cancer earlier this month and she regrets not telling her how much she loved her while she was still around.

Here is the story:

I lost my beloved mom to cancer early this month. While I take comfort that our r/s had improved as we started to open up with each other more in her final months and that I was with her throughout till her last breath (literally), I am still overwhelmed with pain, regret and thoughts of all the what-ifs every single day.

The pain of this loss of interaction with someone so dear to me that I was so used to and yet took granted for in the past 2 decades.

The regret of spending too much time away from her and not saying “I love you” earlier when she was still healthy and active.

The what-ifs and all the possibilities of things that I could have done better that would have prolonged her survival.

It was until she’s gone that made me realise how much she had sacrificed and done for me. I was blinded by my own social life, my career and all the millennial stuff that I fail to see how noble and selfless of a woman she was. Till now, not single day goes by without missing her. I know it’s useless to think of this but I really wish I could turn back in time and I would definitely have done things a whole lot differently.

As for those reading this, I would really urge you to use your eyes and heart to see and feel what your parents have done for you. Spend more time with them, have meaningful conversations, and take them out for dinner (not just the usual Father’s and Mother’s Day for Instagram posting purpose). Before it’s too late guys. They are getting old.

Editor’s note: Sorry for your loss… Cherish your loved ones while they are still around, take care.

HUSBAND RETURNS HOME AND FINDS TROUSERS OF OTHER MAN

0

For context, my husband and I have been living apart for 6 months as he found a job at Jurong Island and he is on a 12-hour shift and it makes no sense to travel 1 hour plus 2-ways just to come home, shower and to sleep less than 8 hours. Luckily, his company provides him with an allowance and he uses it to rent a room in the Jurong West area.

I would wish that he could be staying in our flat, however, I am working at Changi and my contract is not due yet so we agreed to commute back and forth until I finished my current job (which will be next month). He moved purely for financial reasons and not due to any relationship issues.

I live in a normal HDB apartment in the east. However, as I’ve been lonely and sad I’ve been sleeping on the couch in front of the t.v. I only go to my actual bedroom to change clothes.

My husband came back yesterday to visit me. This morning he was in the bedroom and started asking me about a pair of men’s trousers he found. I was confused and said they must be his. He started to get more agitated and said they can’t be his trousers. I started laughing as I said they are definitely his trousers. I haven’t seen them before but I said they must be an old pair he had forgotten about. He got angry and said this is impossible.

I asked him if he thinks another man was here and he didn’t answer, he just said whose trousers are these? I told him no other man was here and it hurt me he could think of me like that.

Also, I said if another man came why would I just leave his trousers there like that? Also, he can check my phone anytime I never stop him.

He is angry and said to just leave it. I don’t know what to do as I really never had another man here and I never cheated. Additionally, I compared the trousers to his other older trousers and they are the same size.

But he is still angry. What can i do?
