Daily sticky thread for rants, raves, celebrations, advice and more! - March 03, 2026

I'm noticing a trend, I am getting a lot of matches, but a lot of them are just "radio silent" out of the get go. I could understand if we have a conversation, don't vibe left on read but not unmatche…

My best friend (F35) with BPD has dropped off the radar and I (F30) don’t know if inviting her to my wedding will be too much pressure or not involving her will hurt more. What should I do?

My best friend (F35) with BPD has dropped off the radar and I (F30) don’t know if inviting her to my wedding will be too much pressure or not involving her will hurt more. What should I do? — My best friend and I met 8 years ago at work. Our friendship was very full on as we worked together and lived in the same city but even when we both left the city we met in, we stayed in close touch. …

Need to let this out of my chest (6 almost 7 days after my ex broke up with me)

Need to let this out of my chest (6 almost 7 days after my ex broke up with me) — I don’t know what to do, I feel empty and very sad. I feel like I really need to get this out because I’m struggling a lot to process what just happened. I was in a relationship with someone (b…

Silence after a breakup

I recently returned to online dating after a 5 month relationship ended (That was from Hinge after one week on the app). Before that I wasn't actively dating, so I am out of touch with modern dating. …

I texted her. Here's what I said. I hope this was honest and vulnerable enough.

I went through a very similar situation. Without sugarcoating, it sounds like you’re sitting yourself up for a huge disappointment and an even worse heartbreak (yes, worse). During my attempt to win h…

Something I noticed after my breakup that nobody warned me about

Funnily enough for me, my last break up he told me I did nothing wrong and that it was really a case of it being "him not me". But when I went right back; to before we were together and looked at his …

If you were the dumper you need to be the one to reach out if you want a relationship with that person again.

Im very careful to over psychoanalyze people. I dont like doing it, I dont like 'trends', and Im generally a contrarian when it comes to anything. So to just slap oh well, hes avoidant on our situatio…

I (22F) caught my ex (24M) cheating, left, and now I’m struggling with missing him and wanting to reach out

I think in this particular case, his silence seems to speak for itself. And I don’t think he would change if you guys went back to it. And someone who goes radio silent when they get caught doesn’t se…

I (29F) slept with new guy (34M) for the first time and felt he was rude to me. Was he?

OK since other people are sharing their bons mots and comebacks to such a situation. Similar situation happened to me way back in 1990. (I'm old) During the time dude was radio silent, Christma…

Even after all these years this still hurts

I completely relate. Please don´t talk down or gaslight yourself about getting hurt by your mother´s disinterest, it´s HER loss. The only thing you can do is try to see the reality of your relationshi…

Has anyone here had there ex brokeup with you and then several months later tried to reach out to them and all the sudden end up together with them again?(Asking stories or if this is possible)

Why did he ghost you? What was his excuse? Did you not go to his house and check on him once he went radio silent? This is bonkers. How can people do this?! I

I (28F) broke up with my ex (32M) after countless attempts to communicate & now he keeps insisting we talk

When this has happened to me in the past, I gray rock. I trust my ability to communicate; I’ve always been noted for it by others. So if a partner declines to listen or value my input, I consider it d…

Am I [26F] waiting for a future that will never come with my boyfriend [28M]?

We have, a few times. Sometimes we have break through talks about planning things, then it goes radio silent on his end and he seems annoyed when I bring it back up.

Unmatched 45 minutes before first date?

That's interesting. I don't go radio silent after setting up a date, but I don't over-text either. I personally would much rather get to know someone in person at first. Thanks for the perspective.…

Lead with Confidence?

I can't speak for everyone, but I find it very different to plan things for someone who's enthusiastic vs not, and a lot of the "planning dates with men" that I've done fell into the latter category. …

31M After a 9 year relationship - advice?

That may be true. But if you go radio silent, don’t check on her, don’t say or do anything, she’s going to look for you. Make sure you’re prepared for when that happens.

I (32M) had a date with (32F). She went with the other guy?

As a man, (who doesn't have kids btw) I have noticed that my fellow gender members have a huge inherit bias about single dads versus single mothers. They are always radio silent on cases like yours …
