So, my uncle and I have a pretty good relation, I regret to say this but arguably better than me and my father. We've bonded over gaming, computers and mostly every new thing I've tried like starting working out and swimming. My dad and my uncle have some beef originating from two main reasons, one being that my uncle's kids don't listen to my dad, so like they won't respond when called or addressed, two he and his family didn't congratulate my dad on the birth of my brother

I find both of these reasons childish for the first my reasoning is that they are just kids like the oldest is 10.for 2 it's just that does he crave the approval of others? Even if it pissed him off why do I have to cut ties.

I like hanging out with my uncle because I learn shit that helps me live in the world, I go to new places and learn how to deal with shit. I have him as an emergency contact before my dad if I ever fuck up because atleast he won't scold or hit me, an year ago I just started riding a motorbike bike and like all new riders I fell and got bruised on my knee, upon telling my dad I got scolded and was accused of speeding (I fell because there was sand and gravel and I didn't know what to do) and my uncle didn't scold me at all he just took me for a tetanus shot and got me a juice to recover and most importantly made me laugh, at the time I was really scared and afraid of the concequences.

He and I mostly play games online, I was introduced to games through him, I used to play Cs 1.6 with him when I was 5,how do my parents expect me to cut ties with him, he's been a good friend to me.

Sometimes he doesn't do what he says like he won't get online after promising to play with me but hey all my other friends have done that too and I don't hate them at all, shit happens, he has a family, I've done it too.

I've tried telling my parents to not involve me in their fueds but it just doesn't get to them, it's quite sad, he came back from his umrah today and texted me to open the gate for him cus it was 1 am, my dad told me no, and I don't even know who opened the door but it wasn't my family, the argument here was that he didn't tell them he was going for umrah. Like bro what are you gonna do with that info 😭😭😭. My dad said that apparently we were going to another city for vacation which I call bullshit on because I have exams this month.

I'm just stuck u know, my uncle's been there for me always, when I scored less in tests, when my dad beat me, when anything bad happened I can go to him and I would be safe. I really don't wanna loose him because of my parents.

I apologise for any grammar errors that make this difficult to read and understand. If anybody else has had a similar problem do lmk how you solved it.

If you saw the ten year old version of yourself what would you tell them and why?

So I'm a 17M and I've been talking to this lady 17F from New Zealand from about a month ago, she shot me a friend request on insta and I thought she looked pretty so I decided to accept it, she continued to like every story I posted till eventually texting me first on a note I put on. From there the conversation kept going till about the 1 week point, there was a huge time zone difference but my unhealthy sleep schedule made up for it. Now after that 1 week point she suddenly stopped replying, like at all, she'd just like my message if I sent any. I'm not the greatest at starting conversations but I tried for her, I sent a message first about 3 times and every time she just liked it even though a reply was the appropriate response.

Then I decided I won't text her again till she decides to do so. She texted me about 3 days later and I replied a day later, which I admit is quite long but I was quite cross which is unwarranted considering we met a month ago. She talked to me about something and then I mentioned the new moon mission and she replied with "tell me about it"

Now me being the information puke that I am decided to tell her a little more than necessary and even send a reel but it was hardly 5 6 lines

She decided to like those messages too. Tbh I've given up on anything of any sort with that lady because I just don't get her, I follow her from another decoy account and she never likes it's stories, I don't know what to gather from this, help

I really cannot understand what she wants
