Can men & women just be friends?
I have recently started dating a man I work with though am now backing off due to concerns with another co-worker. Initially I (and all new starters) thought they were an item but have been assured not they are just friends. However I am not sure the relationship is healthy or that she will be happy if she finds out. She…

Box Trolls or Book of Life
I've said I'll take the kids to see one film at the cinema this half term. It's going to cost an arm and a leg and so I want it to be a good one. My son favours the Ninja Turtles but I'd rather gouge my eyes out than pay £13 a ticket to see that crap - so it's looking like either the Box Trolls or the Book of Life. Any…

Most parents took it well, however my dad got very angry - particularly with my sister whose pg wasn't planned. It's a much longer story than that but that's the gist. Dad didn't…

Company listed at OH's parents address...
Apologies for this being in a weird place, but I didn't know where to put it! You know when you buy something online and search your address via postcode? OH's parent's address (so house number and postcode) come up with a company name at the top when you buy something from one website in particular. The company isn't…

Am I being unreasonable? Teenager's untidy room
If you haven’t already, join the forum to reply! [threadbanner]box[/threadbanner] My daughter is 18 and spends most of her time, when she's not at college, work or out with friends, in her room - which is a tip!

Don't get people sometimes
Recently started to sort things out with the ex, great, and going well. Except she was or wasn't seeing someone whilst we were split up. Obviously something was going on, which is not in itself a problem. I can deal with that. What upsets me is the fact that she denies it, outside of afew little things that I already knew.…

I've been waiting for a thread to appear on it! apparently they want teachers to supervise the class (primary/nursery) brushing their teeth each morning. sorry, but I think teachers have far better things to do each morning - like…

Ex refusing to discuss settlement/divorce
This is a bit of a long one so please grab a coffee and accept my apologies for having so much rabbit! I left my ex 3 years ago after continuous unreasonable behaviour.
