Am I wrong for wanting to move away from my parents?

I am 34 years old and live with my parents. I live with them not because I have to, but because I want to. I've been helping them out financially for the past 8-9 years. Both my parents had surgery, so I help them out with heavy lifting, and things...

Why do some women expect so much from men, and have nothing but looks to offer?

I feel some women want way to much from men. I see a lot of women (not all) saying on social media that in order for a man to date them they have to do, this and that or have this and that. One I see a lot is them saying a guy has to pay their rent...

What's worst, getting cheating on or partner falling out of love with you?

In my opinion, cheating is worst. I would rather my partner fall out of love with me, rather than cheat. That's my biggest fear about getting married. A couple can be married for decades, and be secretly unfaithful and their partner would never know.

Why do people assume creative jobs are easy?

Jobs like fashion, music producer, artist, designer etc.... People don't realize how much work, time and thinking goes into our work. I designed a 29 page medical brochure for a client. This project took 7+ hours to make. Took a lot of creativity and...

Anyone else have a small business or side hustle? how's it going?
