Social dilemma On Facebook, Dominic writes:
My wife and I work completely different schedules, and it’s starting to cause a conflict in the time we share meals together. She leaves for work at two in the morning, and I get up to start my day around six. She gets home from work around noon, and that’s when I’m about ready to take a lunch break. It gets complicated, though, because she tends to not want to eat until she’s ready. So, I put out a rule that says if she’s not “ready” by 2:00, then…screw it…I’m eating anyway. Now, she says I’m not being a good and respectful partner, but I see it as going both ways. Plus, we’re both freaking adults and we should eat whenever we damn well feel like it. I want us to have those necessary “together” moments. I just don’t want to neglect hunger pangs to make them happen. Am I totally out of line here?
Signs you are truly happy: you stay in the moment, you get fresh air, exercise...
Toxic boss traits you shouldn't be putting up with. For ex: criticism with no direction, working overtime for no pay.
Second Date Update: Dan and Andrea went to a nice sushi joint. He said they hit it off so well the date went super long. Now, she has ghosted.
