my opinion

oh my God to the haters. Just turn the channel. Don't read if you don't want to know anything about this couple. Do not misunderstand me. I feel really sorry for Miss Swift she can't breathe that somebody's making a big deal about it. she's a beautiful talented young lady who has a right to her own private life. if you can prove to me that she pays a cameraman to put the camera on her I will be glad to make an apology to you but I don't see that happening anytime soon. You called them a boring couple or a fake one.I have nothing but high hopes for this couple . Yes I said couple. Know one can fake a relationship for two freaking years. So whoever's calling this a fake relationship you need to just shut up for a while. To the happy couple congratulations to you both. I hope people leave you alone and let you live a happy life. Miss Swift I hope you have the wedding of your dreams and I think you've already got the man of your dreams

When did you realize your parents were bad parents?

I was in 4th grade, around nine years old. Our mom was picking us up from school that day, which was a rare change. As I walked up to the car, I saw the trunk tied shut with a rope and a weird numbness washed over me. I then listened to my mother brag all about how many beautiful plants, hanging baskets, and flowers she had just bought. She had new clothes while we were wearing hand-me-downs. We constantly had almost no groceries halfway through the week because she had run out of money, while she would buy lunch regularly at work. She had just spent her entire tax return on plants. She made enough money to easily support us, if only she had been capable of thinking about anything beyond her own instant gratification. That was the moment I realized who my mother really was. At just nine years old, I understood that I was more of an adult than she was capable of being. 😮‍💨 I'm curious if anyone else has a similar story. #Parenting #FamilyRelationships #FamilyStories #ChildhoodMemories #PersonalGrowth #LifeLessons #AdulthoodTruths

What Is A High Value Man?

I watch a lot of relationship oriented videos in my free time. Some of the videos I’ve watched have been from “The Godfather” Kevin Samuels. In his videos, he talks about Modern Women and High Value Men. I also find relationship articles the most intriguing to voice my opinion. Because of this, ya boy had an epiphany. Why not make MY OWN ARTICLE?! 😃 So I’ve decided to do just that! What is considered a high value man? To some, a high value man is any man that possesses the three 6s (6ft, 6 figures, 6 pack). Although income may play a factor, to a large majority of ladies.. that IS NOT the case Why is it when a woman (some, not all) encounters a man that possesses the qualities of high value, she doesn’t know what to do with him? He has all the qualities she CLAIMS she’s looking for, but she passes him up for the a-hole that brings her… EXCITEMENT! Then when he does her dirty, she asks… “Where are all the good men?” Have you checked your friendzone? 😂 Anyway, let’s get the conversation started. What are your thoughts? #WhatWomenWantInAMan #SuccessfulMenAndDatingDilemma

My wife's family is not happy about her pregnancy at all, they are angry 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♀️

My wife and I just found out we’re expecting, and we were so excited to share the news with both our families. My side was over the moon, but her family? It’s like pulling teeth just to get them to talk to us. We tried inviting them over, even offered to drive an hour to see them, but every time it was a hassle. My wife was heartbroken and ended up in tears. That’s when I lost it. No one gets to hurt her like that. We finally decided to text them the news, and they went silent for a whole day. Then, instead of being happy, they started gaslighting my wife, making her feel like she was in the wrong. I stepped in and told them straight up: their actions led to this. Now I’m left wondering—am I overreacting? How do couples rebuild trust when family drama and suspicion creep in? Ever had to defend your partner like this? Let’s talk about it, because right now, I’m just confused and annoyed. 😤😵‍♂️ #FamilyDrama #TrustIssues #RelationshipTalk #RomanticRelationships

Building a Godly Relationship: Trust, Prayer, and Patience

One thing I’ve learned on my journey toward a God-centered relationship is that it’s not always about grand gestures or perfect moments. My partner and I made a commitment early on to pray together every night, even if it was just for a minute. There were times when we disagreed or felt distant, but coming together in prayer always reminded us of our shared purpose. Trusting God’s timing and being patient with each other has helped us grow stronger, even through challenges. If you’re hoping for a Godly relationship, start with small, consistent steps and let faith guide your connection. What’s one thing you do to keep God at the center of your relationship?

My mother kept having children with different people and then left them to me to raise. 😤

I’m 20, juggling college and basically being a full-time mom to my three younger siblings because my actual mom is always working or sleeping. She pays me barely anything, so I can’t even get a real job. Now, I just found out she’s pregnant AGAIN—with a boyfriend she’s only known for a few months. I’m furious and exhausted. How am I supposed to take care of another kid I didn’t ask for? I want to leave, get a job, and live my own life, but my siblings would be left with no one. My mom won’t get childcare, and I’m trapped. How do I even talk to her about this without blowing up our fragile relationship? I’m at my breaking point. Any advice on how to survive this financial and emotional mess? 😩🤯 #FamilyFinance #SingleParentStruggles #CaregiverBurnout #FinancialConflict #RomanticRelationships

I’m Done Dating Men Who Don't Care About Their Teeeeeth!!

I’m over 40 and honestly tired of meeting men who skip the basics of oral hygiene and health! I go to the dentist twice a year, brush twice a day, floss daily, get my checkups, even do regular eye exams. Yet somehow I keep ending up across the table from men with bad breath, neglected teeth, or no clue when they last saw a doctor. A while back I went out with a guy whose profile never showed him smiling. I didn’t think much of it until we met in person and he spoke. His teeth were a disaster! He had the money to fix them but just… didn’t. Last week I met a man who has a good job, good insurance, but every time he speaks, his breath has this stale, not-quite-fresh smell! I take pride in looking after my health and it feels like I’m asking for the bare minimum. Should I just start putting “must brush, floss, and see a dentist” in my dating profile??? #DatingOver40 #HealthMatters #OralHygiene #SelfCare #Health

Marriage is a matter between two people, but my mother-in-law said that I have to pay for the wedding expenses.

So here I am, standing in my future in-laws' palatial living room (seriously, my entire childhood home could fit in their foyer), and I’m being told that my family should foot the entire wedding bill. Meanwhile, I’ve been the one supporting their son—my fiancé—through career changes, layoffs, and life’s curveballs. I own our house, I pay most of the bills, and I’ve probably spent more on him than they ever have in the last few years. But because of some ancient tradition, they think they’re off the hook? It’s wild to me that they paid $50k for his sister’s wedding but can’t spare a dime for ours, especially when his mom keeps suggesting venues that cost more than my car. I’m not asking for a handout—just a little fairness. Is it too much to expect a bit of help when I’ve already invested so much in their son’s future? Or am I just being entitled? How would you handle this old-school stubbornness? 😤💸 #WeddingDrama #FinancialFairness #FamilyConflict #RomanticRelationships

Wife Calls Me 'Loser' After Early Retirement Success 😤

Hey everyone, I'm really struggling here and need some perspective 😔 I'm 41 and achieved FIRE last year - $2M liquid, plus $75k annual royalties from a business I sold. My wife still teaches (great for healthcare), but she's calling me a 'loser' for how I spend my retirement days. During winter months when she's working, I honestly just game and relax at home. I mean, I worked my butt off for 15 years in a high-stress career to get here! 🎮 I handle all the cooking, cleaning, and we take amazing vacations every summer. She thinks I'm 'too old' for this lifestyle, but isn't this what early retirement is supposed to be about? The freedom to do what you want? I'm making $125k annually from investments alone - double her teaching salary. Am I wrong for wanting to just chill after achieving financial independence? How do I handle this judgment? 😕 #JobCareer #EarlyRetirement #FIRE

A parents toughest truth knowing my child suffers breaks my heart

This is incredibly hard to talk about, but I need to put it out there. My son is 27 and he's been suffering from chronic depression for so long. He's stuck in a low-paying, dead-end job, and his life just seems like an unending stream of unhappiness and dissatisfaction. Honestly, if I had known he would struggle like this, I wouldn't have brought him into the world. It’s not that I don’t love him, or resent his existence at all. We've always been a loving and incredibly supportive family, and I'm truly glad for his presence in my life. My regret comes from the idea that no one should have to experience this much unhappiness without choosing it themselves. I always assumed everyone had at least the capacity for joy in life. It’s a situation of caring too much, not too little, because I just hate to see him like this. I feel so sorry for him, and I genuinely don’t know what else to do. *** Today's story is really heavy to carry. We would be grateful for any insights or understanding from those who relate to this kind of profound struggle. 😭 #ParentingStruggles #MentalHealth #Depression #FamilyFirst #FamilySupport #UnspokenTruths #LifeChoices #FamilyRelationships
