My friend will be moving for work in January. Hes been going through a tough divorce and just got his dream job un Ancorage so has decided to begin this new adventure. I would love to try and make a little gift before he goes of a compiled list of what people in Anchorage think are the best spots to check out! Hes pretty outdoorsy, and enjoys a variety of good foods and drinks. Please let me know if you have some suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated!!!

Hey all, So I matched with this guy on a dating app. Chatted, he asked for my number, etc. Well once we moved to text he started asking me kind of weird sexual questions, (I'm looking more for dating which I stated). It became obvious not only our goals for this but that sexually we wanted different things and so I said "no judgement, but I think we are looking for different things". He responds days later asking me to come over. I told him that I thought I made it clear I was not interested in anything sexual nor romantic with him. He said it's ok, he just wants a friend and someone to hang out with. So I said sure and we text for maybe 10 more mins before he asks for nudes and I block him

So I've been planning something fun for my 30th birthday for a handful of months now. It's been a rough year with work, dating, and just life events, and Ive always wanted to do something fun for my 30th. I originally wanted to travel abroad but didnt feel comfortable with COVID still being around. So I decided to go to hawaii. I asked a bunch of friends if they wanted to join and one was able to due to money, and time. She was stoked and took to planning with me right away. We've been planning it for 2 months. I bought books on her recommendation and everything's been booked for over a month now. Last week she called and said she's going to be looking into home loans and their watching her

Just had to cut off my friend cause I felt our friendship had gotten toxic. I recognize it was because I liked him, and wanted him to choose me. And he never did. I feel so guilty because that's not love. I wish when he had told me he was seeing someone I could have just been happy for him. I feel I failed him and myself by being selfish. I feel embarassed, hurt and guilty. I still know it's not a healthy relationship for me as I project a lot of what I want on to him. I dont think I should unblock him. I just wish he knew he did nothing wrong and that I'm so sorry for not being happy for him.

Unsure if this is the subreddit for this question (and didnt see anything for or against it in the rules) I (29F) was choosen and participating in the bachelor on stage about a year and a half ago. I am now hoping to apply for the show. I was wondering if anyone had tips for applying/ making sure my application is seen? Any direction of where to look for this information if not here would be great! Thank you all
