I am 19 and I am regularly having sex with a 44 year old guy. He has 2 kids and one of them is older than me! We both have feelings for each other but know that nothing could realistically happen because of the 25 year age gap :(

Is it wrong to feel disgusted with the novel translation world?

I stem from manga and manhua, but also ended up doing some (light) novel translations in the end. Well, I do know Chinese and Japanese and English, making me pretty valuable for translations, but that's not the point.

How the novel translation world has grown so much totally disgusts me. I believe I was in one of the first generations of web novel translations, and it disgusts me how things have went down that way.

Nowadays, the novel translation world is all about money money and money. It's both disgusting and sad, really, for a person like me who has always done things as service. How much money do they make - with donations AND ads? Seriously, it really does make me feel disgusted, and think how terribly wrong the community is now. I know there's at least one money-grabbing site that was inspired by my novel translations.

I'm really sad, really, and disappointed. It's actually really depressing.

On the 25th of December 2015 my first love died. It was my ex boyfriend. Something terrible happend to him in jail. I was in the hospital with him to say the last goodbye. He wanted me there. I still can't get over it I want to go where he is. My heart is broken in peaces. While he was in jail and we were not together, I met this girl we got together and I fell in lover however she gained this horrible diease and it turned into cancer :(. When I heard that my ex boyfriend is in hospital I didnt want to go first but then I saw a video of him and pther people praying for him hoping he will survive so I went there. The girl understood my pain even when it did hurt her that I felt so sad because of my ex boyfriend. I could cope and I still cant now. We broke up because of daily arguments. Shes now in hospital because doctors said her cancer is very difficult to be treated I am scared the same thing is going to happen. I dont know what to do :( My parents dont even know about this girl :(

Sometimes, I secretly wish they would break-up. And he'd pursue me instead. I know it's bad to think this way, that's why I haven't told anyone or made a move on him. I avoid him whenever possible now, but there was a time before when I taught he liked me, too

Helloo all gay friends. I've discovered that I like girls and now I feel like I'm a virgin a second time... since I've never done more with girls than kissing. Do you have any tips? Also, anyone else that haven't liked many girls(but so many boys) but feel that the reason is bc society is pushing hetero-norms on you? i've always thought well of every orientation but never imagiend myself as possibly not-hetero..

I got my best friend a nice, semi-expensive gift and she got me a $5 poster of a movie I'm meh about from a bargain site. I feel like an asshole for wanting something more but I do a lot for her and wanted to feel special during the holidays considering I don't spend them with anyone normally. She has a lot of family to buy gifts for so I guess I just have to suck it up? Sorry for complaining.

I am head over heels for this guy... but he's a coworker, so if I pursue anything I'll be risking a great work relationship; he's 16 years my senior (but seriously looks like he's maybe 6 years my senior) so I have no idea if he sees me as too young for him or what, and I know people would talk; and although I'm polyamorous and my current primary boyfriend is totally okay with me seeing other people, I suspect this guy would not be comfortable dating a girl with a boyfriend. And I know most of this is just my head playing games with me (trying to disqualify myself with evidence I don't have). He might be totally cool with dating someone non-monogamously. He might be totally cool with dating someone who's 23 even though he's nearly 39. He might or might not even be attracted to me. I have no idea, but I can't stop thinking about it and taking these dumb internet quizzes that are so unhelpful and yet so addictive. I'm an adult, goshdarnit.

I am in high school. I go to a small school in the middle of nowhere. I lied to my friends about having a boyfriend and they found out. I only lied so that they wouldn't question why I was hanging out with them less. I started hanging out with them less because I was constantly body shaming myself and I didn't want them to notice. also because I needed time away from all the golden children who are -so perfect-. I couldn't deal with it, but they found out and know say they can't trust me. What do I even do?
