How Do You Have Conversations About Finances With Your Family?
My siblings and I have good jobs and each of us can take care of ourselves. We all pay our bills, feed our families, and enjoy some extra pleasures. The issue is that I make more money than my parents and my two siblings and this can become awkward at times. Whenever I buy something a little more expensive for myself or others, they ask me how much it cost. Sometimes they insinuate or try to guess my income level to see if I will confirm or deny their suspicions. How do I handle these uncomfortable situations? I don’t want to tell them how much I pay for things, or my income, and I wish they wouldn’t ask.
How Do I Handle Not Being Able To Make It Home for the Holidays?
The holidays are really tough for me. I live far away from my family and this will be the second year in a row I am not able to make it back to see them.

How do I better manage all of this?

How Can I Move On From My Abusive Ex and Not Be Scared Anymore?
I just left my boyfriend after 5 years because he was being physically abusive. I have a restraining order in place, but I am scared because I know we still live in the same city and I fear I might run into him or he may still try to hurt me. I find myself just wanting to stay in my apartment and hardly go anywhere. How can I move on and not be so scared?
