I'd rather be extremely busy at work than sit in front of the desk doing nothing 24/7.

(Let me just get this out of the way: I am in no way complaining about my job, just a thought i had in mind since I sit in front of my laptop doing nothing all day. I am grateful that I can get a job in this job market. Treat this as more of me just spewing my inside thoughts.)

I realised that it actually sucks to be sitting in front of my work laptop all day doing nothing. My boss is too busy to care about me so I'm just left wasting my time. This wouldn't have been a problem if it was a remote job and I can just do my own stuff, but it isn't.

It especially sucks that I want to move around (to exercise) but all I am doing is just sitting all day in the office. I've been hearing how tired my friends are when working, and ngl I am getting envious of them. I just wish to be more useful to my workplace but I can't even voice out my opinion when my boss is busy 24/7.

Additional context: my boss doesnt work in the same office as me. When I contact her online about work, she sometimes could take weeks to reply.

After losing weight, does it feel like you could do anything?

Hi, this question is probably really dumb but it's something I always thought of every now and then. I am overweight and is on my journey to lose weight.

I know that usually people who lose a LOT of weight would exercise more easily because you lose a bunch of fat and gain muscles. It has to feel liberating, right? Like to get so much weight off, you must practically feel like flying.

Being friends with ex-crush?

Just a curious question i had in mind after listening to my friend talk about her first date experience with this one guy.

The guy is pretty nice overall: observant, caring and seemingly mature. But he had one issue.

The guy have a female friend who he has helped get over with the loss of her boyfriend in the past year. They both had feelings for one another (he crushed on her for many years), but didn't end up in a relationship as they are of different race (her parents didnt approve ig).

I know that there are people out there who are comfortable to be friends with exes, but I just wondered would girls choose to continue a relationship with this guy knowing that he has a female friend he liked before?

I personally think its fine to pursue a relationship with him if he agrees to set boundaries with the friend (like no 1 on 1 meetings) but my friend seems to think otherwise.

Would love to hear everyone's thoughts on this situation.
