| Long story short I was left alone with a guy I met for the first time that night on a beach. It was very late(around maybe 3 am) and I was a little drunk since it was after a party. My male friend I've known for a long time and another guy I just met there went for a swim. And now me and this dude were completely alone. The next thing I knew he was on top of me, touching my waist and my breasts. I told him no but he didn't stop. He then tried to kiss me but I pulled away and he tried again. I asked him again if he could please stop and he didn't. He just asked if I was drunk and continued touching me and kissing me on the neck. He's a lot stronger than me as I'm a very small girl and it was hard to push him away. I then got up and told him I was going to the toilet. After I got back my friend was there and we went home. |
| |
| Is this normal or is it considered sexual assault? My friend told me what was I expecting to happen being left alone with a man and that It was expected to happen. I feel ashamed to tell anyone as I expect the same response. |
| |
| Edit: I asked because I got told it was normal. I am seeking validation for my feelings. The first thing that came to my mind after it happened was definately that this was sexual assault, but because of my surroundings I started doubting it. I also spent time with him because I trusted my male friend I was with. Them leaving caught me off guard. I'm also 18 yo and he was like 23. Deep down I know this was assault and I just need confirmation for some reason.",2105,That should not be expected. That’s sexual assault. Sounds like you need a new friend,410,ask

| How can I make up my mind about getting vaccinated?,"This might me a long post, I’ll try to keep it short though. |
| |
| I am a 25 year old dude and I am not sure if I should get the vaccine or not. I live with my mom. She is quite a stubborn woman. If she is convinced of something, nothing will change her mind, not even facts. She is right no matter what. She is strongly against the vaccine. She looks up lots of information on it, information I believe to be false. She believes the conspiracy theories that our governments are trying to kill us because of overpopulation. She’s still saying she doesn’t believe corona is real. She has a friend who’s daughter has gotten vaccinated and my mom is calling her mental. Saying that if she can’t get pregnant anymore a couple of years from now it’ll be her own damn fault. |
| |
| I just told her that I’m thinking about getting it and she nearly flipped. She got this psycho look on her face and she said: “great. Do it. Your body. You take it. I won’t. War declared.” Whatever the hell she means by that. |
| |
| From a young age I have always let her influence my decisions. I made my choices the way I thought she wanted me to make them. Otherwise “mommy would get mad” or so I believed. And she still does. |
| |
| The friend I mentioned earlier, she is acquainted with a doctor. I don’t know what kind. But he tells her a lot about the vaccine, how it’s basically a toxin and how no one should take it. My mom heard this “information” from her friend and instantly believes it. If I send her articles from a trusted source with factual evidence, she disregards it. Because it doesn’t fit the narrative she has in her head. If I’d send her a bogus article about the virus being fake she’d believe it in a heartbeat. |
| |
| She keeps planting seeds of doubt in my head, regarding this decision and many other unrelated ones. Always warning me about dangers that don’t even exist. She’s overly protective, always has been. But I also see her as controlling. |
| |
| I have trouble making decisions on my own. Always need to ask others what they’d do. I think that’s because of how she raised me. I always have doubts until someone else takes them away. |
| |
| So pretty long post summed up: should I take the vaccine or not? Because I’m afraid of the side effects it might have in a couple of years, and I’m afraid of the effects it will have on my already strained relationship with my mom. We still live together so I want to keep that “pleasant”. What do you think I should do?",851,"The vaccine isn't really your problem. Your unhealthy dependence on your mother's opinion is. If you get the vaccine, you'll be fine. If you don't, you'll still probably be fine. But if you continue to be influenced by your mother, you'll end up exactly like her and you will not live a fulfilling live. I suggest that you talk to a psychologist.",411,ask

| |
| The political elite alongside banks stole all our deposits, wether they are in lebanese pound or in USD. |
| |
| Right now we have fuel shortage to the point where we must wait in queue for at least 3 hours to fill up our cars with gas and sometimes a day long in populated areas, and sometimes the station runs out of fuel when your turn comes. There are also queues for cooking gas, diesel for winter heaters, bread, governmental papers, etc. Add to that that we have at least 12 hours of blackout because there's also not enough fuel for electricity so we have to endure the heat and sweat and sleep on the balconies cz it's impossible to fall asleep in such a weather without at least a fan. |
| |
| Electricity shortage is also causing food poisoning because food can no longer be stored properly, so eating is a huge risk. |
| |
| If you get sick, there are neither medicines in pharmacies, nor a hospital to welcome you cz they also lack essential medical products. |
| |
| Moreover, prices of literally everything skyrocketed because our currency lost more than 90% of its value thus more than half of the people are no longer able to afford their basic needs and became below the poverty line. |
| |
| Just a matter of time and the internet and telecommunications will shut down. Again because companies will run out of fuel sometime. |
| |
| All this happened within less than two years. Lebanon is no longer habitable and the political elite is corrupt and it's impossible to change it right now because they still have supporters and armed thugs AND all the official armed forces are protecting them, while ordinary citizens are unarmed.

Its basically a case of what happens when you are a reject of this society and has lost all hope. Everything that you accomplish in this world seems meaningless and you can’t even accomplish what you want or do what you want, because society has shut you out of those opportunities. The only reason I can see someone wanting to continue is if they are still attached to at least a person in the world.

| "People who use neopronouns, why?","I myself am a part of the LGBTQIA+ community as a gay woman, and have several non-binary friends, but all of them use they/them pronouns. In fact, for a portion of my youth (while coming to terms with my sexuality) I also used they/them pronouns until I felt more comfortable in my gender. However, I don't personally know anyone who uses neopronouns, and am genuinely curious about what led you to identifying with your specific pronouns? Do you feel uncomfortable with being referred to as they/them even though they are gender-neutral? Which neopronouns do you use?",622,"See I come from a place where there is no gender in the language. You'll recognise the person from context.

| I didn't know that Kyles Dad, Grandma and Friends all lived in Kenosha, 20 minutes from where he resided with his Mom part time in Illinois. |
| I didn't know that Joseph Rosenbaum knocked him down twice and then attempted to kick him with lethal force to the head. I didn't know that Huber had hit him in the head 2x with a skateboard. |

|
| I’m pretty sure my best friend is a manipulative narcissist.. I need advice. Can’t believe she did this..,"So I’m a 25 yo female, recently started working at a bank. This is where I met Lisa. Lisa is 21 years old, a beautiful girl and we vibed immediately. We were the only two girls at the bank who go out of our way to look good and we do get a lot of attention. |
| |
| We kind of look alike, both have black hair, blue eyes, and we also have a similar body shape, both are busty, wide hips, small waist. She is a little chubbier than me and has a bit of a belly and thicker arms but both the same height (I’m 5’3 she’s 5’3 1/2). You may be thinking, why are these details important- you’ll find out why in a second. |
| |
| When I first met Lisa, she told me she was Russian.. because I’m middle eastern, I kind of felt a first generation American daughter of immigrants connection. We joked about our immigrant parents’ silly/quirky ways, talked about our language differences, etc. we were inseparable. However, things started taking a turning point. The more I got to know Lisa, the more I started feeling bad about myself.. |
| |
| She would constantly make remarks that sounded mean, but she’d insist she meant it in a sweet way. One time, randomly, she said that she’s taller than me so she appeared thinner and I was “stubby”. I told her that I didn’t really like being called stubby and she kept insisting that she meant it in an adorable way.. bare in mind, she’s only half an inch taller than me but she weighs about 180 and I weigh 140. I have no fat around my waist or arms but she does. |
| Whenever we’d be around a group of guys, she’d constantly show them embarrassing videos of me, and laugh as if she’s just joking. I’ve told her many times that I didn’t like when she does that and she’d keep saying that she’d stop.. but she never did. |
| |
| She’d always act like we were competing over these men.. and would be super aggressive about it.. even though I genuinely was not competing. She loves black men and hates white men. I love white men and whenever there’d be a white guy who would hit on me, she’d get aggressively sexual with him (while her bf is at home).. and because I don’t do that in the first interaction, the guy would then turn his attention to her. She’d take his number and never call him, and then talk about how ugly he was and how she was just “messing around” when hitting on him. |
| |
| Another time I felt off was when we were watching a movie that had nothing to do with middle Eastern women. She turned and looked at me randomly and said, “I think middle Eastern women are ugly,”. Again- I’m middle Eastern and she knows that. I didn’t argue with her because I felt like maybe she was saying these things because she felt insecure and I felt bad for her, so I let her win that one. It still hurt my feelings that my friend said something like that to me, but whatever. |
| A few weeks later we were going to go to her family’s thanksgiving. While we were getting ready, she confessed that she wasn’t Russian of the daughter of immigrants. The entire time she was confessing, she was laughing hysterically as if it was just a “stupid prank”.. |
| the issue, however, is that it didn’t seem that way. She didn’t just lie to me, she lied to our entire company, her boyfriend, every guy we’d run into, etc. she even learned the language to come off more convincing 🤦🏻♀️ |
| |
| I found out she lied because she wanted to come off as “exotic” and “foreign”, not “boring and white” (her words not mine). She only confessed the truth because I was meeting her very redneck family of Irish and polish descent. It felt kinda weird but I wasn’t mad, I was more shocked. |
| |
| Her backhanded compliments, lies, talking badly about me to our other friend Carlie (who she admitted she didn’t like because Carlie gets more attention than her) continued for months.. until one day I couldn’t take it anymore and confronted her about it. She gaslit me and denied everything.. even after I promised her I wouldn’t get upset if she just is open and honest with me. She insisted it was all in my head and got aggressive with me. Started yellling horrible things at me, like how I deserved my ex breaking my shoulder- and when I started to walk away crying, she started laughing hysterically like a psychopath. |
| |
| Jump to a few months later, a few weeks ago I felt bad losing her as a friend and tried to reconnect with her. She insisted I apologize and I did. She then invited me to her bday party.. when I got there, there were 20 dudes I didn’t know. I walked in on her playing those same embarrassing videos of me from before.. she says come on in we’re watching you act stupid. |
| |
| While they all laughed, I was visibly uncomfortable and upset. She didn’t really care and kept going. Again, after trying to talk to her about it, I was gaslit. |

He would much prefer to be honest, but doesn’t want to change their image of him. He’s a really good dude and has 6 months sober… the jail time is related to a DUI back in July. Any ideas for what to tell them? |
| |
| Edit to add: He’s a chef at a high end resort, no PTO/sick time/benefits for now unfortunately. |
| |
| 2nd edit: he won’t be able to text/answer calls for those 3 days (obviously lol), so the head chef or owner can’t get in touch with him over that time either… which they typically do. |
| |
| 3rd edit/update: so this wasn’t expected to have this many responses… but thanks to those of you who were kind and trying to help! |
| |
| We were expecting to get a handful of other ideas we maybe haven’t thought of yet, just to have more options if that’s the route he goes. He still has another month until he has to report to jail. |
| |
| He may be honest with the owner, or he may go with a sick day/family emergency/something like that. Definitely nothing major or Covid-related! |
| |
| While, yes, the service industry is full of active and recovering alcoholics/addicts; the owner of this place is not from the US. And in his culture drinking is looked down upon, even banned in some places. The owner is very kind and appreciates my guy a lot, so it’s more about not wanting to let him down or change his perception. Sounds immature, perhaps… but I can understand him not wanting the owner to think less of him. It’s not about the other co-workers, head chef, or manager at all… as they understand this is part of the industry. |

I encouraged both to unfollow each other and rather speak with me or her mom if there’s any “warnings” that come up going forward. |

He seemed incredibly disappointed that I could ever perceive him in this light, which is fair but he is the one that dm’d her and I had to get to the bottom of it so my bad at least he knows he crossed a line. |
| I was conflicted by this because I was once 14 and sometimes got texts from older / guys saying “go to bed” or “log of it’s late” and these convos SOMETIMES had hidden agendas.

I’m passing the rest of the tissue at home. I’m in pain but as of now it seems I’m healing normally. No obvious complications. I feel blessed for that. Thank you everyone for your concern. |
| I need to heal physically & put myself first before I figure out what I’m going to do with my relationship.",1651,"Hey OP - I hope you’re doing well as it’s been a few hours since you posted this. |
| |
| I agree with a lot of the comments here. I want the contrary opinions to take the miscarriage piece out of it a second. OP is in the hospital at the ER. Hospitals suck. They’re lonely, they’re scary, you’re never there for a *good* reason. |
| |
| Covid complicated things for some time and my last ER experience in January meant I had to be alone. It sucked. But things have changed and hospitals have been allowing family/SOs back in. |
| |
| If I had an SO in the ER, I would be there. If I were in the ER, I’d want my SO there. I’ve had more than one colleague call out of work recently because of an incident with their SO. Work was nothing but supportive, because *that’s what you do* when something is going sideways. |
| |
| Now bring the miscarriage piece back. Not only is OP in the ER, which sucks in general, they’re there because of a potentially traumatic and emotionally-charged medical event. It doesn’t matter if OP’s boyfriend wanted or didn’t want the baby. It just doesn’t. It matters that he provides support for his girlfriend, and he’s not. |
| |
| Of course we don’t know the tone of the conversation before OP left for the hospital or what he’s saying over text…but I’d be seriously reevaluating the relationship if I were in this situation. |

| Should the United States eliminate the Electoral Collage and award the position to the winner of the popular vote?,It seems the two “hot button” issues of late (abortion and gun control) would be settled non-issues if our last two presidential elections were uncontested via the elimination of the Electoral College process. Even Bush v Gore would have been simply settled. Why do we still depend upon an antiquated thought when we’ve progressed Soooooooooooooo much farther?,1532,"I'm pretty sure it was designed with a multi-party system designed. In the early days, people cared WAY more about their state than the country as a whole so instead of 2 parties, each state basically had their guy nominated for president. The electoral college was suppossed to stop large states like Virginia from always choosing the president just because they had the most people. |
| |
| It's wasn't until we went to 2 parties that it's started to kinda break on us. While eliminating the electoral college may seem like a good idea now, it may not be if we ever evolve beyond the 2 party system like some people want. If our idealogies split enough that every state started nominating their own person it stops California from choosing our president every four years. |

| [SERIOUS] how can people read the bible and still believe that it happened?,I would rather not debate on just want to know,609,"Answer: Many people read the Bible & believe, while also viewing many of the stories allegorically. I’m one of them lol. One example, I personally don’t believe there was actually an Adam and Eve. Many people at my church don’t. I do believe that in the beginning of time, God meant for everything to be perfect. But then -something- happened, and it wasn’t perfect anymore. What? Who knows. Maybe an apple, maybe not. Lots of people (also me) read the Bible with faith, and also take into account the “human” element—it’s God’s Word written down by humans… so of course there’s bias, social context, exaggeration—all things humans are great at. But I don’t really need answers for all of that, I just need faith. And with that, I can also acknowledge how the Bible is used for liberation and oppression, and I can choose how I use it in my life & also grieve & feel anger toward how others use the Bible in their lives. That’s more a scholarly approach. Thinking about these things doesn’t change or devalue my faith, it’s just how I believe. Most Christians I’m friends with share this mindset. |
| |
| Some people I know who do believe literally, have said doing so brings them comfort. I’m not referring to people who were raised in messed up churches or brainwashed. That’s horrible & a different story. I mean like averagely living people who choose to believe literally because they simple choose to believe that way. It’s not blind faith, it’s more like pure faith? If that makes sense. |
| |
| There’s also a super common third option, which is people who believe the Bible is the literal Word of God—end here. So not necessarily that all the stories are true, but that everything in the Bible is exactly written the way God wants it to be. It’s His Word, no debate. That’s sort of a middle ground, because they don’t think there’s a human element, but they also don’t necessarily think Moses actually parted the Red Sea. They just think God wants us to read that he did. |

| Not sure if that’s clear so feel free to ask any follow up questions. I know it may not make sense to you & that’s completely okay!!! I question things in the Bible all the time. So does my Pastors, so do our Elders. It’s normal & encouraged. Glad you’re asking questions",210,ask

| Why is requiring ID voter suppression?,I hear this argument often about how requiring an ID at voter booth is suppressing black people and other minorities,1658,"Not every state has the option to get an ID that is usable for voting without minimum getting a drivers license. Requiring a drivers license to vote means that if you dont have/need a car, you have to go through the process to get one. Which involves fees (which would be considered a poll tax since it is required to vote) and often times you must supply a vehicle to take the test. |
| |
| You *could* have a voter ID law that isn't voter suppression if you supplied all citizens with an ID for free that was usable for voting, with maybe a cheap replacement cost should it get lost. Having there be any cost mandatory to get an ID that you are REQUIRED to have in order to vote means that anyone who cant afford the cost simply loses that right, hence suppressing votes. If you want it to not supress votes, it needs to be free and easy to get an ID.",543,ask

| What’s the deal with calling women “females?”,"I’ve noticed an up tic in that lately and to me it’s weird and sounds overly clinical, but I see women being referred to as “females” way more than I see men being referred to as “males.” What do y’all think the reason for this is? |
| |
| Edit: man, the answers here are divideddd |
| |
| Edit 2: Ok so I tried to read every comment but there’s way more than I expected and I’ll just detail the more common answers below. |
| |
| Overall, I see the most common answer has to do with “female” specifically being used to dehumanize people or with an otherwise negative connotation, such as implying that women are “other.” I assume this comes from trend of incels, pick up artists etc. finding different words to avoid the word “woman.” |
| |
| I also see comments, Seemingly from mostly men, and a few women, answering to the effect of seeing no problem with it, that’s how they grew up, it’s a neutral term, women refers to gender and female, etc. This implies that a lot of people aren’t specifically trying to use the term more often or trying to express any specific opinion on women by using it. |
| |
| Comments show that some people think that “female” is used to leave out trans women and/or the definition of “woman” is no longer identifiable. Which raises the question, why don’t we see a lot of that on the other side? Is “Man” still definable in that case? Why do we generally only see this argument attributed to “Female?” |

| Aight follow up time because I’m torn. I confronted him and his response seemed sincere. We opened security cases with Apple and the phone provider. We even involved families. Full consent to STD tests, parental control (from his family) on devices, and an extensive comb through of all bank statements and call logs. A new number has been obtained. Current theory is this is an elaborate spam that started when his phone was stolen Years ago and the SIM was replicated. This was brought up before but both the phone carrier and family suggested to ignore the spam. |

| Do you think the Average American can run a mile without stopping?,"Also, how fast do you think they could run a mile? |
| |
| Edit: |
| |
| So to clarify some things: |
| |
| 1. I'm American myself. The reason I asked is because I run regularly and many people are surprised by it. I'll usually run about 2 miles to work a few days a week and a few times recreationally thought out the week. Basically about 3-5 times a week. When I tell people this, they act like I told them I run a marathon every day. I figure most people can probably run at least one mile without stopping, so I asked the question. |
| |
| 2. In my mind, the average American is anywhere from 20-45 years old and 150-250 lbs (140-200 lbs for women). |
| |
| 3. By run, I don't mean full-on sprint. I would say at least a light jog would be fine. Basically anything faster than walking where both feet leave the ground for a moment. |
| |
| 4. Based of the comments, I've greatly overestimated Americans athletic abilities. |
| |
| Edit again: |
| |
| 5. I didn't ask this question to shit on Americans. I actually asked because I believe that the average American CAN run a mile without stopping. I want to see what the average mile pace for the average American was, but I guess that irrelevant now. I understand that there's a stereotype that Americans are fat and lazy, but there's no way Americans are so fat and lazy that the average couldn't run one mile (or at least that's what I thought). |
| |
| 6. It doesn't have to be a fast mile. You could even jog the distance as long as you don't stop. I wanted to see if the average American has the ability to do it. |
| |
| 7. Do people even read this?",1527,The average American can not run a mile. However the average person can easily train to be able to run a mile. ( I’m a Heath / Physical Education teacher and a personal trainer).,681,ask

| |
| \- lots of people have an aversion to kids in general, not just at events; |
| |
| \- cultural differences seem to be a determinant factor between which side of this people have had contact with or pick; |
| |
| \- many cite misbehaving kids as a reason to exclude them; |
| |
| \- many cite bad parenting; |
| |
| \- many seem to believe that kids can't or shouldn't be present when alcohol is being consumed; |
| |
| \- several mentioned liability issues; |
