I (14M) have a bone disease known as Multiple Hereditary Exostoses (MHE). It causes benign bone tumors to grow everywhere on my body. Although they aren't cancerous, they are very painful when they are near a nerve.

Oh so I've gotta wait til everyone I love is dead and I MAYBE get to that age? When my body is all fucked up, my mind has deteriorated and I can barely stay up.
No. I hate that. |
About a month ago, I found out both of my children where the results of my soon to be ex-wives affairs. I've had a feeling for awhile now that both them were not mine. 6 years ago when my son was born, I was the happiest I had been in my entire life. I had married my best friend, we had a child together, and everything... | This hurt my heart to read this.
My gut reaction as a mother was to tell you it’s not the child’s fault, etc etc
And it’s not.
What has me not telling you to not try and daddy those kids is your ex’s reactions. She clearly had every intention of using those kids against you. To try and guilt you and therefore contro... |
So I posted a thread about my annoying brother, and someone asked me why he and I (who are both adults) still live with our family. I explained that it works that way in Asia. It is pretty common for us to stay until we're in the late 20s for various reasons like our parents would get lonely, cost of living is insanely... | I'm white and was thrown out of the house at 19. I lived in a bed-bug infested apartment and put myself into massive debt because my parents thought it was time I experienced the real world. I didn't get my Associate's degree until almost 10 years later because I was too busy with two jobs.

Drove home this morning and cried in my car.
We’re starting to see COVID-19. We are a small hospital. We have to re use our masks and place them in a bag (I had to use a cup) all day. The elastic got loose and I had gaps when I went into the room of a presumptive positive. They add tests on after we may have been expo... | You are in the forefront of my thoughts. All healthcare personnel are at this time. People need to take this seriously. |
Some of you are disgusting. I'm glad this is a throwaway because the amount of incest stuff and Asian bigotry and racism sent to my inbox and the chat was off the charts. And all the porn comments here were not necessary. Grow up.
I guess I shouldn't be surprised. I don't know what I was expecting when I shared this b... | Does she have a dad? Fight fire with fire |
I (28F) was 24 years old at the time, and worked in this independent kitchen with no HR department as a cook for several years. There was a brief period of time where a coworker was pulling my hair repeatedly after being asked and told not to. He didn’t even stop when my managers told him to fuck off. So I got permissi... | I am totally here for this. He deserved it! |
Within the last 30 days I was dumped by my girlfriend, my hamster passed away, and I (finally) put my 2 weeks in at my toxic job.
I, an independent 28 year old, was in need of something very specific that would fill the holes in my heart. I soon found myself driving 1.5 hours to my moms apartment where she greeted me ... | I hope my kids will come to me like this when they’re adults. God knows I wish I could do with this with my own mom who passed in 2019 |
I'm feeling numb and so confused right now and need to get this off my chest.
We've (both 30s) been married for 3 years, no major fights or disagreements and my discovery happened about 2 weeks ago. I'm in utter shock that I sometimes forget this is really happening.
Turns out he's been sexting this 16 year old girl... | Leave. And on the way out, call the cops |
Mid 30s here. Normally not one to complain but today is my birthday and it sucked. So I’m going to be a whiny bitch.
Married, sole bread winner. Wife is a stay at home mom.
My birthday present requests:

2. Breakfast made for me (even a bow... | What kinda pta meeting lasts 9 hours?! |
My parents got married when they were super young. My dad knocked up my mom, and their parents married them off. My grandfather was able to set up some business for my dad in a big city, and they moved here soon after my birth.
My mom grew up in a conservative southern town where she was taught to be a submissive wife... | He fucked around and found out |
So yesterday it finally happened. My wife of 8 years caught me cheating and we ended up having a huge fight. I never saw it as a big deal, I told her she’s overreacting but all she seems to think is that I’ve broken to most important thing in a marriage which is trust. I’ve been doing it ever since we got married and e... | UNO’s at it again …ending relationships one card at a time |
I don't know why in gods good name my mom thought I would be the one to come to. We don't get along. I went to live with dad at 16 because she told me she hated me and kicked me out. My older brother, the golden child, I know for a fact has a spare bedroom she could sleep in now that she's losing the house.
My moms si... | Did she recognize those terms, or did you have to remind her where they came from? |
Men treat women like we aren’t even human beings, and even worse on the internet.
They scream at the top of their lungs “gamer girl” whenever they hear a female voice. Aren’t you embarrassed? You should be ashamed.
It’s not fun to play a lot of games as a woman where it’s required to speak because men ruin the fun b... | I'm a dude. But I like to play female characters in games. One of them was a damage priest, and since a female priest = nun and nun = "sister", I named the toon "Sisterdeath", and dyed all my gear to look like a nun's uniform.
Literally EVERY SINGLE DAY I would get people sending me whispers with **super** sexual co... |
I (22M) and my girlfriend (23F) have been dating for the past 8 months and she recently met my parents. I'm on an alternate account because I don't want her to see this. Anyway I added her on Reddit and looked through her profile and she is an active member of r/femaledatingstrategy. For this who don't know r/femaledat... | Don’t worry about what your family will think if you break up with her. They want the best for you, and I’m sure they know that life can change suddenly.
Edit: if they ask why you broke up, you can simply say she betrayed your trust and leave it at that. |
This is a throwaway. And I'm on mobile, so sorry about that.
My story is not too different from many survivors of sexual assault that you've probably heard. But in my culture, men are always perpetrators not victims. I have no intention to compare myself or downplay the seriousness of anyone else's story.
I was 5 w... | Big hugs. I'm.pleased your gf is so sensitive to you |
I made a post a bit back about an insane demand from my boss. Essentially, she told me that my pants were too revealing and that they showed by bulge (they do not). She then told me that I needed to replace my work pants. If you want to read my original post, you can find it [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/TrueOffMyChe... | “Supervise your shopping” WTF???
I think the company wouldn’t have given a fuck, but she shot herself on the foot by saying the company could cover your new bulgeless wardrobe. |
I went to the gas station. There's an ad on the pump. Went to watch a movie on Amazon Prime Video. Got some ads DURING the movie. YouTube's ads are getting worse. I can't SAY anything in my house without getting ads about it. We just ate mac n' cheese for dinner two nights ago, and guess what ad I got on YouTube today?... | Let's hope it doesn't become like in Futurama. |
This is a throwaway account and all names are fake. The story includes me(28M), my (now ex) girlfriend Elise(27F), and her best friends Leah(27F) and David(27M).

I am interested to hear what the real story is and who was told what, etc. Please update when you have answers, these friends seem suspicious imo. |
The director of the company came to me the other day and said he wanted me to take over the role of one of my coworkers (a deputy team leader) and all the extra responsibilities that come with it. The catch? I get no more money for it and no promotion in my job title for a YEAR!

My girlfriend (F22) and I (M23) live together. My day starts off much sooner than hers does. I'm usually about to the office by 6:30am, which is about when she starts waking up. I'm one of the first people in the office, so I always put headphones on and listen to music as I start my day.

EDIT: I just wanna thank this group for getting me through my loss - I totally forgot I had a previous post here from when she was dying, but hadn’t died yet.

He’s a bit older than your friend at 70 years okd, and he’s had a good life, but it’s still awful and unfair.

Salute to you 🥂 on putting your mom in her place. Has she been nasty to you about the "accident"? |
Every time I watch a YouTube video there's 1-2 ads about mike bloomberg, It's so fucking annoying. I'm not gonna vote for an old white billionaire from new york if my only source of information about him are YouTube ads that paint him in a positive light, financed by his campaign. It's a political echo chamber. | Watch a few videos on mattress buying. I haven’t seen anything but a mattress ad in fucking weeks. |
Working at a hospital in a Midwestern US town. Had more COVID patients last night than I've seen since last spring. Black means air on x-rays and I saw multiple 30-somethings whose lungs were nearly solid white.

One year ago today I was unconscious on a ventilator and it took so many people to get me to the place I am now. I am beyond thankful. |
I’d rather some anti- gay marriage boomer keep their job than have to interact with a violent criminal at the supermarket.

I need to vent
My son (B) is 12, in the 7th grade.
This week, one of his classmates passed away. She was only 12, and took her own life.
My son wasn't close with her, but knew her, and is upset. His best friend of many years, V (who is like a daughter to me) was close with her and is obviously crushed.

I was married for 14 years to a man who recently revealed he was gay. All these years were a fucking lie. He claims he was just too afraid of being "attacked" by bigots to come out of the closet. So his solution was to use me as a beard. My husband used me, and ended up cheating on me multiple times and I finally found... | Get a new therapist and new friends. That’s bullshit.
