Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Relationships are never a straight and narrow path to navigate.

Some people attach quickly, while others push away. Some people are anxious, while others are avoidant. Sometimes you both want the same thing, but find it hard to get there together.

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. For frequent flyers, we know the age old debate about whether you should or shouldn’t give up your seat for someone asking. Maybe they’re elderly, maybe they’re pregnant, and maybe they are just asking for no reason at all, but there will always be people asking.
