I don’t know why I didn’t do this sooner. Dating an older man is the most relaxing experience of my life. He talks about exactly three things—his investments, his espresso machine, and his perfectly curated vinyl collection. And honestly? I just sit there, sip my coffee, and let him handle everything else.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, recently introduced a young dog named Coco who is searching for her forever family. This adorable 3-month-old puppy may be small in size, weighing in at approximately 4.5 pounds, but she makes up for it with her endless energy and loving personality. Despite her tiny stature, even smaller than the resident cats in her foster home, Coco approaches life with curiosity and enthusiasm. "She has bounds of energy, loves playing with all types of toys, and then ultimately adores snuggling up on her foster mom's lap to get lots of pets," explains Sandy Paws Rescue.

I’m (30s F) struggling with a situation involving my husband (30s M) and his best friend’s wife, “Anna” (30s F). Recently, I accidentally saw a text from Anna on his phone where she was venting about her marriage issues. Turns out, she’s been regularly calling and texting him about this for weeks, and he never mentioned it to me. When I asked him about it, he got defensive, insisted he was “just being a good friend,” and we ended up in a huge fight.

I’m stuck in a moral nightmare and need advice. Two coworkers at my job are having an affair, and I’m certain of it. The man is married with a newborn baby, and the woman involved is also in a relationship. Last week, I walked into work early for my shift and found them alone in the break room, giggling and leaning way too close. When I awkwardly joked, “Shouldn’t he be home with wife and baby?” The woman said "I don’t care about that.” I was stunned.

My mom married my Texan stepdad two years ago after splitting with my dad (who moved to Florida). My stepdad’s ultra-conservative—he hates that I’m applying to art school (“useless degree!”), shames me for dating (my boyfriend’s 25 and a mechanic!), and constantly trashes my mom’s “California parenting.” Now that Mom’s pregnant, he’s pushing me to leave our Arizona home by August when I graduate. Mom says she’s “too stressed” to stand up to him, even though I planned to live here while working part-time.

My wife and I are struggling to agree on tithing. She’s been attending church regularly for years, and while I respect her faith, I don’t participate. Recently, she asked to start giving 10% of our joint income to her church, which is a significant amount for us financially. I told her I’m uncomfortable donating that much to an institution I’m not involved with, and it turned into a heated argument. She says tithing is non-negotiable for her faith, and my refusal feels like a rejection of her values.

Fast food and healthy eating don’t always go hand in hand, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t good options out there. Many fast-food chains now offer healthier burgers that allow you to enjoy the taste of a classic burger without overloading on calories, fat, and sodium. Choosing the right burger can make a big difference, especially when opting for smaller portions, leaner meats, and lighter toppings. Here are some of the healthiest fast-food burgers you can order.

You ever feel like you’re just done before the breakup even happens? That was me about a month before my ex and I officially called it quits. We were doing the whole long-distance thing—only 200 kilometers apart, but it might as well have been a world away. One weekend, I just realized… I didn’t care anymore. I didn’t want to drive two hours to see him, and I definitely didn’t care about him not driving to visit me either. Those little things that used to annoy me? I just couldn’t be bothered to even be mad about them anymore. I didn’t want to argue, I didn’t want to make an effort, and I sure as heck didn’t want to be intimate.

The Jacksonville Zoo is celebrating the birth of another adorable baby: a critically endangered male eastern bongo. The unnamed calf was born on Feb. 19 to first-time mom Cayenne.

Baby and mom are healthy and doing well, and you’ll be able to visit them in the zoo’s Africa Loop when they’re ready for the spotlight.

After much deliberation, I made the heartbreaking decision to give up my cat. We had been together for seven or eight years—since she was just a tiny kitten fitting in my palm, growing into a ten-pound companion. Over the years, I poured thousands into her care, but life doesn’t always go the way we plan.

Cleaning out my closet last week, I stumbled on his bed—still indented, still covered in faint paw-shaped dust. Three years since I said goodbye, and suddenly I was sobbing on the floor, scrolling through photos of his goofy grin and squirrel-chasing glory days. Grief doesn’t fade; it just waits in ambush.

I left my Corgi, Benny, with a friend for a few days while I was out of town. My friend has a house full of dogs, so I thought Benny would have a great time socializing. I was excited to bring him home today, but the second we walked through the door… nothing. No tail wags, no happy zoomies—just pure, cold silence.

Sharing my petty (but effective) HOA revenge story. For years, I lived in a neighborhood where parking in front of your own house was banned. I followed the rule grudgingly… until I got slapped with a $50 fine for a car I didn’t even own. The kicker? The car belonged to a random visitor parked briefly in front of my house.

Buying a condo and dealing with renovations was exhausting enough, and now this… I've been so unlucky lately. I bought my place in December and registered with the HOA, only to find out they raised the fees starting February. I contacted the HOA and found out they notified the seller about the hike a few days after I signed the contract. But here's the kicker: none of this was disclosed in any of the documents I received. I’m starting to feel like the seller intentionally hid this from me. Does anyone know if the seller is legally required to give me all the disclosures before I signed? Feels like I just got blindsided, and I have no idea what to do next.😮‍💨

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, recently introduced a handsome, friendly dog named Guero who is searching for his forever family. At nearly three years old and weighing 63 pounds, this affectionate canine is currently in foster care, where he lives harmoniously with six other medium to large dogs.
