1. A well-written post will increase your chances by a minuscule percentage but only luck determines how many responses you will get.
2. If the conversation gets too hot too fast, either you won a jackpot or you are being catfished it's usually the latter.
3. When you get an immediate response to a F4M post, it's your lucky day and you should buy a lottery ticket.
4. Just because the conversation is going well for 2 days don't get too hopeful, it can crash and burn anytime.
5. Just because the conversation is going well for 5 days don't get too hopeful, it can crash and burn anytime.
6. Just because the conversation is going well for 10 days don't get too hopeful, it can crash and burn anytime.
7. Just because the conversation is going well for a month, by now you get the idea.
8. If you find your AP is getting too busy all the time, it's time to say goodbye and start looking again, which is what I am doing now.
9. If you keep hearing a lot of "what about you" it's time to invest your time and energy in another person.
10. It helps to clearly mention

• Who you are - 47 male living in IL, brilliant father, husband, fit and a terrible bathroom singer.
• What you want - Someone who could be an emotional cushion, and really make my grey cells happy.
• What your limits are - Goes without saying cant leave the marriage, abbreviated responses(hbu, hru, wbu etc), people who consider conversation as an interview where they just reply to the questions.

1. If you did find a good AP thank your stars, most people don't get so lucky.
2. Lastly remember, there is a person on the other side with real feelings and a heart that can break just likes yours, we are all a little broken to be here so pls be kind.

A few days back, I posted a cry for help after I bombed my last mock. A lot of you were kind enough to take the time out to give me tips and pep talks. I'm truly grateful for that. I got a 760(Q50,V44) in the real deal today. I feel ecstatic, and I wish each and every one of you hit your goals!! I'm happy to answer any questions you may have regarding the test. Having a positive attitude, believing in my preparation, cutting down caffeine, getting enough sleep, and definitely some luck helped me get this score today. Having been a long time lurker, I am grateful for all the resources and discussions in this sub and GMAT club.
On a side note, I bombed the IR section, ended up getting a 4. Would this hurt my chances? I absolutely don't have a mental capacity to take the GMAT again, what else can I do to bolster my profile in this regard?

Hi fellow Dads. I've been lurking here a while, but wanted to ask a question and get some thoughts from other Dads.
My son is 3 years, 4 months. We've been potty training him for about 6 weeks now. He has been having success going #1 in the potty at home and intermittent success with BM's (he'll go a few days a week, but still has BM accidents 3-4 days a week).
At preschool he seems to be having more trouble. He has accidents more frequently and he is resistant to going when they ask him. They have a different toilet setup than we have at home (they have a miniature toilet, while we use a potty seat on a regular toilet at home). The director now says he is not mature enough to potty train and has demanded that he wear pull-ups to school.
My wife and I are not sure if maturity is an issue, since he does go at home (although he does have problems with BMs). We're also not keen to put him back in pull-ups or diapers after 6 weeks of wearing underwear (he was very upset to have to put pull-ups on this morning to go to school).
Does anyone here have experience with this type of situation? What age were your kids when you potty trained them? How long did it take? How long did it take for them to learn to do BM's in the toilet?
I'm happy to answer any questions or fill in any details I may have missed.

So my friend 19F has a really toxic narcissistic mother. Let's call her Amy. Her mom ruins her life every chance she gets. She mocks her, ignores her, blames her, exaggerats lies about her to the entire family even the extended one. Basically has ruined her reputation. Amy does not even owns a phone coz her mom would go ballistic if she has any source of device on her. Her dad is a slave to the mom, no opinion of his own he even hits her ( full on abuse) when she doesn't listen to the "mothEr" and then the mother tries to come in and "protect" her ( Amy) when she was the cause of it all. Anyways so now Amy is having a very hard time in her house she isn't allowed to leave her home without them she isn't allowed to do anything without their permission. Her mom creates drama even when she wants to hangout with me. Amy got into uni recently and her mom ignored her, like wasn't even happy lmao she seemed pissed that her daughter got into a uni🤡. Amy hasn't done anything to make them do this to her yet she has been going through this every single day of her life. Now I'm going through some shit as well and naturally Amy depends on me for comfort ( my prevois post was abt this) and honestly I depend on her too since we're friends ofc but she cannot be there for me ( understandable) but expects me to be there for her yet I have done everything I can to help her idm helping but idk why I keep getting this feeling from her that she's pitying herself, almost victimising herself. Honestly I've tried all the advice I can give her she's tried everything with her mom too but nothing works. I think u cannot change ppl like her mom. EVER. So I tell her to ignore it and leave her mom as she is until she can move out and I get it it's hard and she cannot help it. But I feel like she lets it get to her more than she should. Her mom wants a reaction out of her, the only way to deal with them is to ignore them. I told her but she gets defensive with her parents and then she comes n let's the frustration out with me and I don't really know how to help her anymore with this issue except tell her to ignore them. And for the pity part she usually has been saying stuff like "it's fine nobody is there for me anyways" "whenever I need someone no one's there" "Im gonna go mad I'm dying and u don't even bother to check up on me" like I just feel so off what even is all this like bro just leave her u do you but idk am I being insensitive?? Any advice on how to deal with this and her mom

My now husband and I returned from our honeymoon last night after about 15 hours of travel. We are riding that tired glow of post vacation bliss having had a phenomenal trip. His brother, J, picks us up from the airport.
J offered to fly to our state, stay at our home and pet sit our dog while we were on vacation. This made us so happy! J and my MIL still live together in a different state and have a toxic, codependent relationship that is destroying both of them and deeply painful for my husband. At the age of 24, J had never held a job, plays video games all day, has no in-person friends, does not exercise, and gets an allowance. J has also struggled with depression. My MIL cooks every meal for him, cleans everything, and pays his allowance just for existing in her home. She relies on him entirely for emotional support following the divorce.
So when J offered to help us and be apart from MIL, we thought this was a huge step towards independence. We paid him handsomely, excited since this would literally be his first ever job.
While on our honeymoon, J reached out and asked us where the bandaids are. It turns out he got a small cut on his hand from our fence. We got the message too late, and by then he had asked MIL where the bandaids are. She would have no idea where these are...At the first hint of being needed, she buys a ticket and comes to stay at our house and texts us AFTER, not asking for permission but telling us she will be at our house. I have no bed made for her, no clean towels, nothing.
She gets to the house, and immediately decides to walk our 90 pounds, 2 year old dog. My MIL is also around 90 pounds and the age of 65. J tells her he pulls and that she shouldnt take him. J should have taken him since 1. J is close to 270 pounds and 2. We had specifically tasked him with caring for the dog. And 3. Because we had been with J to show him how to walk the dog. We told J, be careful with our dog around her when she informed us she would come. She steps out the door, our dog sees a rabbit in our yard, and CRACK, broken collar bone.
J spills the news of all this as we drive back from our honeymoon. I am ashamed that our dog isnt well trained. I know this reflects on us. But I am also enraged that she was here in the first place.

a long time ago the world was normal-sized. no bigger than Earth. it was ruled by the sorcerer king. He was a virtuous and wise king whose only flaw was his lacking a companion. He had no interest in the noble women. he saw them as boring and weak. he remained alone for years until he met a woman who caught his fancy.
She was the assassin sent to kill him. She had disguised herself as a maid and remained hidden, preparing for a day he would be caught off guard.
The king, of course, knew exactly who and what she was the moment she showed up. he simply didn't care. the list of people capable of killing him was two names long. lucifer and god.
One day while he slept, she struck. before her dagger could even touch his skin he was already behind her in a new outfit.
"you sure are patient. but not very quick. I had enough time to put on my robes while you were dilly-dallying."
She tried to activate the poison in her suicide tooth but was surprised when, instead of cyanide, she tasted blueberry juice.
"I replaced the poison in your tooth with fruit juice. I've been bored."
She looked at him with resolve. "ill never tell you who ordered the hit. No torture will break my spirit."
"I've already killed Duke Montesquieu. And the entirety of the black hand."
She looks unphased. "Your cheap lies won't trick me. you may have killed Duke Montesquieu but I've been receiving letters from the black-hand leaders for months."
"yeah, those were from me. You've been receiving letters from me. I've been receiving all the letters you sent back as well."
She watches as he opens a drawer and her letters begin pouring out.
"W-why? Why play along with this charade? Why not just kill me and be done with it?"
"As I said. I've been very bored. Tell you what. How about we both pretend this never happened? I'll keep pretending to be oblivious and you keep trying to kill me. If you actually manage to kill me one day you can have anything you want. Don't worry about being arrested I've already set it up so that whoever kills me gets all my stuff. it keeps life interesting."
She agreed and time passed.
Every day she tried to kill him in a new way. Every day she failed. She tried to kill him throughout winter and summer and spring and fall the holidays included. No day was off-limits. Not even their wedding day. Even the day she gave birth to their daughter had an assassination attempt.
This was how life was for the king. Many did not like the idea of a king marrying a commoner let alone a former assassin. But he couldn't care less. for the first time in a long time, he was happy.
This was until tragedy struck. One of the many people out to claim the bounty the king had placed on himself attacked. But unlike the rest, he didn't have the sense to make sure his family was out of the blast radius.
The attack killed his wife and daughter. If that pain wasn't enough there was also the fact that his wife was in hell for her past actions.
The king's life became consumed by the desire to rescue his wife and daughter.
He looked into the mystic arts. (magic system here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vQy8Y8gQoBQQsraLwA94weBKRxTjUhhke24apjuVqSP_KFvURHwIS4-ANzhIiNxkEbuDqAD2-4lA1Y3/pub)
The combination of magic and mystic arts was expressly forbidden. but the king cared not.
by combining Magic and mystic arts something new was created. Heretical arts. From that point on he was known as the heretic king.
Heretical arts were immensely powerful. magic and mystic arts interacted in a strange way. when using them at the same time instead of working additively or multiplicatively they worked exponentially.
This allowed The king to open portals to heaven and hell to retrieve his family.
This transgression did not go unnoticed by Lucifer and God who decided that mankind was to be punished for their insolence.
What the people didn't know was that the death of his family and their subsequent rescue were orchestrated by the rulers of heaven and hell. All so they could have an excuse to invade the mortal realm.
As heaven and hell invaded the king did not send his army. He stood alone. He fought the armies of heaven and hell for 100 days without moving. God and Lucifer decided to step in themselves.
God and Lucifer teamed up and still could not kill the king easily. They fought for weeks until eventually, the king fell to his knees. He had long since discovered the two's plan.
God spoke. "you have fought well. But you are just a man. Your race is only fit to serve."
Lucifer spoke. "A mortal was never meant to hold such power. Your existence is blasphemous. how admirable."
The heretic king spoke. "Fickle and pathetic. That is all you are. But I am worse. Creation is mankind's birthright. I would never allow trash to have it."
He placed his hand down on the dirt. "The world shall remain forever unconquered."
Instantly magic began to flow from all corners of the universe infinitely empowered by mystic arts.
The planet began to shake as it grew and grew. For 100 days and 100 nights, the planet grew.
When it was finished growing it encompassed the entire universe. This single planet was now the size of the universe.
Mankind Barely survived the calamity. Most of them were scattered across the massive globe.
The angels and demons retreated.
Knowledge of magic slowly faded as societies were too scattered to communicate.
Humanity had devolved back into its tribal roots.

This is just part one! I'll post the second part tomorrow!

This post is basically just me bragging about my 4 1/2 year old boy and how he's such a good kid. I love him. He makes me so proud and I tell him so all the time.
Everywhere we go he strikes up conversations with strangers and regales them with anecdotes, jokes, and whatever he's excited about. He's a celebrity at the local grocery store, ice cream place, library, hot dog restaurant, and so on. The mail lady loves him and honks every day. His doctor and dentist love him. He makes everyone smile and they're always happy to see him.
No lie, this kid stopped the CEO of Panera Bread who happened to be visiting the store my son was at and talked him into a free muffin. Today, a tractor was mowing the brush on the side of the road and he was understandably psyched. He was waving and all that and the driver came back and showed him the tractor and they introduced themselves. My son is now friends with Frank the tractor driver.
He's polite and nice to everyone. He does his best to empathize with his preschool classmates, some of whom are recent immigrants from warzones, autistic, etc. and include them. We read a book (Chester Raccoon and the Big Bad Bully) where he learned that even if others are mean, we can be nice to them and they might change and want to be our friend. He then went to preschool and started trying to play with a kid who had been mean to him when he first joined, and now the kid is excited when my son arrives in the morning. It's adorable.
He's the most purely good human being I've ever met. He lives as if the sun shines out of the crack of his ass, and I honestly think it might at this point. It makes me sad that at some point I'll have to be more serious with him about strangers and the fact that you can't trust everyone and all that. I shouldn't have to and I don't want to squash that part of him at all. But for now, I'll let him do his thing.

I’ll start from the beginning, my husband (33m) and I(29f) were best friends for 5 years before we started dating. We got pregnant not too long after but since we’d known and loved each other for so long we were thrilled!
I have never felt like my MIL cared for me and it’s only gotten worse. We didn’t see her much during the pregnancy then once our daughter was born she would just randomly show up at our house and walk in without knocking, unannounced. After several instances of this happening while I was shirtless, breastfeeding, etc. we asked her to stop. She did for a while, would call and say “I’m in your driveway, can I come in?” So not exactly what we wanted but we let it go hoping she would catch on.
Fast forward to 4 years later and things have gotten so much WORSE.
She makes subtle digs at me CONSTANTLY. I am a stay at home mom, her other daughter in law is a lawyer, she constantly compares us, how we parent, keep house, you name it. So while I truly cannot stand her, she also does not listen to a word we say.
Every single time she sees or watches our two children she gives them candy, ice cream, cookies, SO MUCH SUGAR. It’s so often that we’ve told her several times to please try to find other ways of showing affection and making them feel special. Never listens.
Two weeks ago I finally got very stern with her and told her the candy and sugar cannot and will not continue. She said “no problem” then we didn’t speak again until this past weekend when she watched our two kids from 7am-9am. When she dropped our kids back off the first thing my daughter said was “mommy we had cookies!”. I thought my head was going to explode. It was like she took what I said and gave me a big ol “fuck you” right back.
My husband is just as upset as I am, even more so honestly. He’s finally seeing how his mom is very narcissistic, arrogant and out right rude.
After our wedding last year I told MIL “I love you” to which she responded “okay, you guys have fun”. This past Mother’s Day I text her and said “happy Mother’s Day! Thank you for bringing my best friend into the world! Love you” she responded with “happy Mother’s Day to you too”. I won’t tell her I love her again but regardless it hurts.
How do I get her to understand how serious we are about our rules/boundaries? There are so many more issues that I didn’t discuss here but I’m about to lose my sh!t. I don’t want to make her hate me even more, mostly because I think it would be very hard for my husband and children to feel that tension. But also, enough is enough.
Sorry for all the typos, I’ve been typing this through mega tears.

After 5 long years of suffering within my current role, I’ve finally been promoted without an interview, £6k Payrise plus bonuses, and more responsibilities. I am so unbelievably happy right now. My current role is one of the shittiest. Bad for my mental health, my current boss is an a-hole who sits there and doesn’t do anything, doesn’t show up to the office, is frequently away on teams for long periods of time and I don’t even know why they hired me as I never have any work to do, I could do my job in a day! And I get a new boss! 😀 God I’m so happy. Yay for me! 😀.

My now husband and I returned from our honeymoon last night after about 15 hours of travel. We are riding that tired glow of post vacation bliss having had a phenomenal trip. His brother, J, picks us up from the airport.

Anyone in the June cohort? Would love to make a group chat before the upcoming trip to Chicago. Happy first day!

We hadn't texted for a while. He texted me and I'm just. Everything hurts. Talking to him hurts, thinking abt him hurts, the thought of wanting to be with him hurts. I don't want to feel this pain anymore. I met with my friends today and my day sucked cause it was me and two happy couples and I just wanted to cry and call my ex and then he texted me abt smth and he was super nice and I just sent him a voice note saying I had a bad day do wtv u want when all I wanted was to tell him I want him back and I just miss him so much my heart hurts, my head hurts and I just want to kill myself bc of the hurt.

I’m 23F he’s 23M. We started dating about a month ago & I’ve just recently cut back on drinking A LOT these past two weeks. Anytime him & I ever hung out I was always drunk (i drank EVERYDAY for months on end to the point of blacking out) & now that I’m sober more than I’m drunk, he’s kind of fucking annoying? I feel so mean saying that but truly that’s how I feel. I’ve been enjoying alone time a LOT whereas when I was always drinking I wanted someone by my side at all times. He’s very clingy & wants to see me every single day. The clingyness isn’t the huge problem though, it’s the fact I feel like I can only tolerate him in short time spans. I’m not sure if I’m just irritable bc I’m not the drunk happy goofy me all the time now or if we genuinely just don’t have that connection I thought we had. Any advice right now would be appreciated.
