Thoughts About the Relationship’s Future
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 user commented, “That world of Warcraft was fun, and I miss it…”
Emotional Struggles
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.”

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.”

A comment was, “Had cyber s**** with some girl I talk to online the other night.”

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.”
