TITLE: I [25M] decided to take a month break from my GF [23F] of 2 years, and I think I'm seriously considering to end it.
POST: This is my first post and fairly new to reddit so I apologize if my writing is all over the place. I'll try to keep this brief as possible.
So little background: I met my girlfriend online while I was in my junior year in college. I was living with a college buddy of mine and she would come over couple times a week to spend the night. Things went real well for th | positive |

TITLE: Do you think death is a good thing?
POST: Lately I've had a really interesting view of death. I feel like death is the ultimate peace. No more stress, no more bullshit. People often like to point out how "lucky" we are to even exist, but what if it's actually the opposite? What if the trillions of other possible human combinations that were never born are the lucky ones? They never have to deal with any of this crap. They continue to not exist while we're down here dealing with this fuck | negative |

TITLE: Speeding tickets while working
POST: Before anyone goes into a tirade about the fact that I shouldn't have been speeding. I know. I was late to a patients house and it was raining and I got pulled over. I thought I was going to get a warning and sent on my way. Nope. The police officer said I was going 53 in a 30. I did not go that fast. Radar or no, I was going 45 which is still a no no but I had been up half the night with my kid and had to go to work. I didn't make small talk becaus | negative |

POST: So, I work in a computer lab at my university, and another lab in another building of the school recently had a microphone stolen from their recording studio. They caught an image of the suspect (the last person to use the studio before the mic was stolen) and posted it around the school.

TITLE: Anyone else had experience asking why you've been suddenly led on?
POST: So I met this girl online, got to talking, and met up soon after. We had some great dates, we both seemed to really like each other. Then one week she cancels on me (which is fine, shit happens, no biggy) and since then we've still been talking but when I ask her out I get a "I don't know yet, I'll get back to you!" or something of that nature. And of course, I never hear a suggestion for another day to see e | negative |

TITLE: How can I cure my chronic procrastination?
POST: I am currently a junior in High School and am taking the heaviest workload in my entire class (I know this for a fact, less than 200 people in my class). However, to top off the fact that I have more work than any of my peers, I am also the worst procrastinator I know of.

TITLE: Redditors who make a living while they travel, how do you do it?
POST: For the past 5 or 6 years, my life has been defined by the moments in which I was on the road. Like many of you (speculation here), these moments are all I think about... my time in Iceland, Germany, the stormy Atlantic coasts of Northern Canada, and even the Western United States (I'm from PA). I now live in New York City, work in social media (which I abhor), and write whenever I get the chance. This is not enough. | negative |

BF and I are both college students and we've been dating officially for 7 months or so, hooking up on and off for about a year before that. Up until a month or so ago, our relationship was fantastic.

TITLE: If you demand free shit, you'll have to work for it.
POST: I work for a retail company (in our region's main office, not in a store) which means I get to deal with the "I want to speak with the manager" types who aren't placated even after they talk to the store manager. I'm pretty good at talking them off the ledge & hearing them out, so *most* of them are a little calmer & occasionally even apologize for biting my head off once I get their info & assure them an AVP will be in touch | positive |

I didn't do so hot on the next two tests (68 and 72 respectively), though relative to the class averages I fared pretty well.

POST: I (24m) started to date a friend (23f) about a month and a half ago. We're both expats (from the same country) working in the same area, so naturally we hit it off. We'd known each other for about three months prior to dating.
Three weeks into our dating relationship, we go on holiday. Just before leaving, she drunkenly told me that she wanted to be exclusive. I said sure and thought that was that. She reiterated this to me several times over hol | negative |

POST: Well, we've been together three years. Last year she was diagnosed with lupus. I've been nothing but helpful and supportive, but my efforts seem worthless. She has to stay cooped up all the time, because she can't be out for too long without feeling sick. I feel like any complaint I have is just a whine, because I don't have any real problems | negative |

POST: My SO [22M] and I [20F] have been together for 6ish months and recently we've been having problems with him acting distance. He let me know that this is because he has a crush on a girl he works with, and has been feeling really guilty about it.
He has let me know that he is still 100% committed to me, does not want to act on these feelings at all and still loves me. I trust that he won't do | negative |

POST: My father was laid off from his job about 2 months ago and hasn't been able to find a job anywhere, just odd-jobs here and there. They claim they've been staying afloat, but I sincerely doubt that's the truth.

We've been dating for about 2.5 months and overall everything seems great! I really like him and could see a future with him. I was the one who initiated the exclusivity talk and also asked him to take his dating profile down. He readily agreed but then I was wary about being the one to initiate these conversations.
