Q: I’m late on my period… Should I tell my slink?
F--k the high road. We’ve all been told it’s something we’re supposed to take (and if you weren’t … respectfully, we can tell). Unfortunately, now that you’re college-aged, morally it would look like you’re the asshole if you didn’t. But when did ‘being the bigger person’ stop meaning ‘don’t shove that girl on the playground for insulting your shoes,’ and start meaning ‘swallow those very real, very valid emotions like they’re character flaws’?
Q: I found someone who wants to be my sugar daddy. ... He said it would only be FaceTime ‘dates’ for online shopping (while I’m in a low-cut top). A couple hundred for the first call. Should I do it?
Q: I’m worried my girlfriend isn’t into me anymore. How do I know for sure?A: Well, if you have to ask, buddy (I’m assuming you’re a man because most women would already know), you might already have the answer. Crowdsourcing information about your relationship is rarely a sign things are running smoothly.
Q: I’ve been with my boyfriend for 7 months now and honestly I’m starting to think we’d be better off as friends. … He’s a really nice guy but I’m just not sure how into it I am anymore. All this to say, I need to know, how do I politely break up with someone?
For life’s most absurd, wild and confusing moments, sometimes you need to turn to a stranger for unbiased and honest advice (unbiased is the key word here). I know your friend said it was totally fine to text him back, but she’s a people pleaser who will say what you want to hear. I’ll tell you the truth.
