Past Romantic Encounters

A user commented, “My boyfriend slept with my roommate right before we started dating. He still doesn’t know this, but she got pregnant and had an abortion.”

Personal Insecurities

One Redditor wrote, “The reason I need to be alone a lot is that I have Tourette’s; I can only keep my tics under control for so long.”

One user replied, “My ex-girlfriend and I had a baby that we gave up for adoption.”

A second user added, “I got drunk and made out with my wife’s sister over the Xmas holidays 3 years ago. The sister and I pretend it never happened.”

Hidden Purchases

One Redditor replied, “I have an eating disorder that I’ve been fighting alone for about 5 years. He thinks I’m just naturally really skinny.”

Another Redditor added, “That my depression is much, much worse than he knows, and I’m very close to either checking into a mental hospital or doing something unbelievably stupid and hurtful.”

Professional Challenges

One Redditor replied, “When we were dating, I was dating other folks too and I didn’t expect (or really want) him to be the one I settled with. Our lease is up in march, and I have a steady job, so I’m trying not to think about how this will end until I’ve saved up and I’m ready to support myself.“

A popular comment was, “My girlfriend doesn’t know that for the past 3 months I’ve been having an internal back and forth struggle about if I want to be in the relationship. Mostly because I’m missing a gut instinct that she’s “the one” and we’ve been together for over 4 years.”

Unfulfilled Desires or Fantasies

One Redditor wrote, “It’s been a few years now… every day we don’t have s*****, I die a little on the inside.”

Another Redditor added, “He’s beyond terrible in bed. I already have old s**** hangups from some bad abuse as a kid… and him being so bunglingly horrible at s**** and everything leading up to it just makes it so much worse.”

Previous Legal Troubles

A user commented, “I’ve been growing w*****d with a buddy 7 years ago. We rented a house and setup one of the rooms with a pretty sophisticated ma******* plantation and almost got arrested a year ago.” 

A second user added, “There’s a 95% chance I’ll lose the case and spend the rest of my life in prison.”

Regrets from the Past

One gross comment said, “ I mixed a pot of fake puke at home, and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony, and made a noise like this: hua-hua-hua-huaaaaaaa – and then I dumped it over the side, all over the people in the audience. And then, this was horrible. All the people started getting sick and throwing up all over each other. I never felt so bad in my entire life.”

Online Activities or Social Media Behavior

One user replied, “She doesn’t know about my history as a swinger, and thinks my total number of sensual partners is only a fraction of what it actually is.”

A second user commented, “About once a month I dream about my ex gf. These dreams usually involve us getting back together or reconnecting in some way. We broke up many many years ago (I was dumped), but I have apparently never been able to get over her.”

Issues with Friends or Family

A Redditor wrote, “That my best guy friend has just confessed that he’s in love with me, and I’m now completely confused about how to handle the situation.”
