Voting Question: What does this quote mean?

Resolved Question: Cashier asks me to state my Race?

I have to admit that yes I have been tanning a lot this summer going on vacation plus making a few trips to the beach. I was totally shocked when without warning when purchasing some clothing I was asked in front of a lot of patrons and I quote "Are you Mixed" my mouth almost hit the floor! I told her no! Then in front of an already impatient line of people wanting to pay and go home she insisted on knowing my race then she bellowed "oh you must be Mexican". I again astonished stated no I am not "Oh you white then" I gave no acknowledgment just handed her the money for my items. As I left she stated to the next person in line "yeah right she white". Should I take some action here and call up the store is it even worth it would anything be done about this rude cashier? more

Voting Question: Could anyone pls help me to correct my grammar and fix the errors of this story.?

Episode 1 A German philosopher once said "If you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you"? After this philosopher’s death, a lot of other people attempted to articulate the sophisticated truth hidden inside this aphorism. More or less, they came with various definitions which differ from each other. Fundamentally, the idea behind this quote is- if you are staring into a deep pit for a long time, the pit will be staring back into you by itself. Every time when I see this quote I feel, the quote has some sort of a relationship with my life. I am not a philosopher and I am even not a typical literature geek who tries to collect the Dogmas trough out the history. But somehow my destiny put this phrase at my presence to teach me a valuable lesson of the life, which I haven’t discovered yet. I still can remember the day that I obsessed with this quote. That was long time ago; I could hardly remember the day it has happened, it was the day that my life has been changed. I wish I didn’t meet him, I wish I wasn’t there at that time and I wish it never happened. But now it’s all over – there’s no turning back, all I got now is an empty drug bottle with few drops of drug inside. ********************************************************************************************************* Few years back, I was a normal resident worked for a Dutch shipping company. Most of the times, I had to travel across the Bristle Dutch sea line. I couldn’t say I enjoyed that job very much with the work stress that I had. I worked in that company for more or less three years. During that time I hardly visited my apartment, at Colin. I was all alone in my apartment; I guess that’s why I’ve chosen a job like this. I must have been trying to get away from my lonely life. The only relative I had was my father’s small brother, uncle Edward. When I was eleven I used to sail in the Victoria Lake at southern Weirton with him. It will take half a day journey from my apartment to reach his home, sometimes, when I get two days off during the weekend I used to visit him, even with a great difficulty. I felt, my life was very miserable and unworthy, the day I heard my uncle had passed away due to a sudden heart failure. I lost my only companion and I felt myself was getting even more pathetic and miserable. Subsequently, during my vacation period, when I got nothing much to do, I found myself commonly hanging around in bars darning beer bottles with old country folks, trying to gain some peace for my life. Yet, I couldn’t get away from my loneliness. As the time went by with the same accordance day after day, I didn’t really feel my life had something significant or precious to recover here after. In my independent world I am the only character played the role alone, until the day I met this wired man. That was the most unforgettable day in my life. Since then I couldn’t sleep well at night, I was tormented by terrible nightmares every single day. I can still imagine that day like yesterday. ****************************************************************************************************** That was summer 1871 June, we were sailed on “Lan de Verginere” in southern pacific sea line. After sixteenth day of our journey, we decided to anchor near a small pacific island called Sumba to collect new food items and replenish our water barrels. As we travelled inside the island I saw another schooner anchored at the west side of the island. I thought this was another ship like our one, which was seeking a temporary rest stop to stay. Half way through my journey in to the island, I came across to an opened area where some natives are selling their fruits, leather and crocodile skins for the outlanders. While my crew spent some time to mingle among the crowd to buy little gifts for their families, I stepped into inland to see some more impressive perspectives of this new island. Suddenly, from the distance I barely saw a human hand weaving at me. I wiped my eyes and looked at that direction again, and found a strange looking man was waving his arm at me again and saying something unclear from the far. Soon I realised he wanted me to approach him. At first I thought he wanted to sell something to me. As I strode towards him I got a clear view of him - middle aged gentlemen with old nave costumes. But as far as I comprehended, he didn’t look like a captain of a sailing ship, but some sort of a merchant. “Ha, how are you today my good man?” He gave me a wide smile. His face was covered by a grey thick beard. His black colour shoes matched with his leather trousers, but the white coat he was wearing, had lots of dust and brownish stains because of not washing it for a long time. “I’m fine. Are you trying to sell something to me sir? “ “If so, I’m afraid I need to inform you, I only got few pounds in my pocket.” I replied with a long breath. “Oh, no way I’m going to sell anything t more

Resolved Question: Does my best friend like me?

I have a girl best friend name jessica and we've been friends for three years but i dont think she considers me a best friend and we are kinda close we talk about boys and girls that attract us and we share a lot but we have never slept over at one another's house and we live in Michigan where in winter it gets really cold and there are blizzards. About six months ago when my family left to miami for winter break and her mom called me around 7 at night and asked if jessica was at my house and i said no and why and she told me jessica left to my house about 30 mins ago walking because her mom and her got into a fight and im the only friend that lives close to her like ten mins walking and she was worried because there was a strong blizzard going on at the moment then she told me she was going to call the police and i said OK and ill go look for her. I went outside and found her a minute away and she was laying there and i picked her up and brought her to my house. her coat and everything she had on was wet from the snow and i removed it all except her bra and under wear because i think that would be illegal and i started to put hot towels on her to get her warm again then thats when she told me she needed body heat and she told me to take her bra and underwear off then she told me to hug her and i did i called her mom and told her to come over and that i found her. when she came she got mad at me because she accused me off trying to get her naked and told me she didnt call the cops then jessica said i quote " Eddie loves me more than you ever would so leave" then her mom left.

Voting Question: Strict moms and their daughters as friends?

Okay so my 2 friends Shruti and Alyssa were talking behind my back! Shruti was a really good friend and gained my trust back. Alyssa however has a history of lying to her mom who by the way is EXTREMELY strict. Cause it is summer vacation now, i emailed and texted alyssa like 14 times altogether saying I was sorry and i would never do it again even though i didnt do anything, i just got mad at her which i have the right to. Then, alyssa texts me saying that she isnt aloud to talk to me or contact me at all. Then like a month later, i called alyssa and her MOM PICKED UP!!!!! I was expecting that cause her mom is like stricter than anyone in the whole world. I said, My name is ________ and i am calling for alyssa, ( i was planning to invite her over.) she says and i quote, "Alyssa is not aloud to talk to you or play with you" since my mom and sister were in the car and they dont know about this whole thing, i didnt dare to ask why so i polietly said "okay, bye" and hung up asap. Now what do i do. I want to be friends but i dont want to talk to her mom again. What do I do? I am going insane. more

Resolved Question: Hello there. Please answer only if you have time?

I know this is really long, so please do not feel obligated to answer this question. I just need to clear my head. Any thorough advice will be greatly appreciated. I fell for Arthur in November. He captured my heart, and he showed interest in me, too. He followed me around when we were in the same rehearsal room, chose me as an audition partner, stared at me a lot, laughed at my jokes, always sat by me, made me laugh, talked a lot with my family, brought in his iPod when I told him he should, found reasons to touch me or talk to me, always walked with me, always waited for me, asked me out to a concert, found my phone number, signed a thank you card with "Love, Arthur", helped me a lot, recommended music for me, teased me, made me try on his sunglasses, etc. Then, hell week came. In April, we had our choir show with rehearsals every single day. He was performing a duet with this girl named Sarah. Sarah has a boyfriend of 3 years, but it's pretty obvious that she was flirting with Arthur. She stared at him a lot, ran after him when he left the room, waited for him, saved seats for him, wrote on his Facebook wall like every day, etc. During hell week, Arthur didn't completely forget about me, but I thought he fell in love with Sarah. When we finished rehearsal, I had to stay behind, but he left and Sarah ran after him. He even told her, "Thanks for waiting, love!" He calls everyone "love." Also, he sat by her a lot. I was sitting in front of them, but he did kneel by my seat twice to talk to me. I just thought that he forgot about me, and I was so hurt. He also ignored me a lot when we were out with our friends. I did this out of anger: I deleted him from Facebook because my heart was broken. The next day, he added me as a friend on Facebook. His status even said, "I lost a friend :-(" So, I accepted his friend request a day later. We never discussed it, but we were still friends. Everything went back to normal. He thought that something happened with my account. With the whole Sarah thing, I noticed that she is flirtatious with every guy that comes her way. Summer vacation started in May, and I do hear from him. When I quoted a heartbreak poem, he asked me if I was okay and that I should talk to him if I ever needed some cheering up. He also promised that he would send me a list of concerts, and he would leave notes here and there. BUT HE NEVER SENT ME THAT LIST. I was being my normal self when we talked: Silly and flirty. I Never ignored him. In fact, I started some conversations. He was being really nice and sweet. He stretched the conversations, and he even offered to help me fix my car when school starts up. We're going to be working at the same job and we'll be in the same classes next semester. Here's the problem: I want to delete Facebook because I want to stop stressing about this. Please tell me the truth: - Will he forget about me? - Did he like me? Does he still like me now? - Throughout my story, did I do anything wrong? more

Voting Question: Hi everyone. I know this might be long, but can you help me please?

I like this guy a lot almost to the point where I loved him. Does he like me? Here's what he did: - He stared a lot, found reasons to hug me, asked me to a concert, always waited for me, sat by me all the time, jumped into my conversations, super nice to me, respected me, took the long way to walk with me, made me laugh, recommended music for me, laughed at my jokes, never maintained personal space, found my phone number, signed a card with "love," brought in his iPod when I asked him to, etc. - He is so positive, and always tells me how I am a good singer, or that I can do anything. - He noticed when I deleted him from Facebook. (I thought he was in love with another girl that kept on flirting with him, and I was angry. This girl has a bf. I stayed away, but I eventually accepted his friend request). - When I was sad, I quoted a Shakespeare poem about broken hearts. He asked me if I was okay, and that I should talk to him if I was feeling sad. - Ever since summer vacation started, he would jump into my conversations on Facebook, or leave notes here and there. - Whenever we talk, it seems like he always stretches the conversation. - He wished me a happy birthday - When I asked him something on Facebook, it seemed as if he was extending the conversation by asking me more questions so I could respond: also, he was asking me questions that he already asked me before, but said that he "forgot." I never ignore him, and I never respond with one word answers. I'm always sweet to him, and he is really sweet with me. He even offered to help me fix my car when we meet up at school. What will happen if I delete Facebook? I'm thinking about quitting it for a while so I can relax. Do you think he will forget about me, or will he text me? He and I are supposed to meet up when we get back to UCLA. We're in the same classes. I don't know what to think anymore. Please help? more

This man that I like so much did the following: asked me to a concert, stared, always waited for me, always walked with me, found reasons to touch me or hug me, recommended music for me, helped me, made me laugh, never maintained personal space, laughed at my jokes, signed a card with "love", always left with me, sweet to me, etc. A whole mess happened.

When I quoted a heartbreak song, he asked me if I was okay and if I ever needed to talk, I could talk to him. On summer vacation now, he leaves notes on my statuses. He promised to send me a list of concerts going on this summer. He also likes the same statuses that I do, and he comments on conversations that I am a part of. He also wished me a happy birthday. But, at the same time, he has a lot of female friends on Facebook, and he jokes around with them. But Sarah just celebrated her anniversary with her boyfriend, and she told us how he is the love of her life. What happened here? more

Resolved Question: Does the pain from lying/infidelity ever go away?

If two people decide to stay in a relationship after some act of fidelity or lying about something major, can the relationship ever be the way it was before this act? I live with the pain of what happened every single day. It's almost a year since he stopped contact with the other person and I still replay things in my head. He "cheated" (and I put it in quotes because he denies cheating - yet he went on vacation with her and pictures surfaced of them spooning on a floor together) and I'm still dealing with painful trust issues and just plain hurt over this situation. He cut out the entire group of people who were knew about his actions but he recently decided to accept a job working with several of them this summer. I'm automatically terrified that this is going to ruin what's left of our relationship. If he loved me, wouldn't have have tried everything in his power to find another job? Can the pain from infidelity ever go away? Would therapy help deal with these recurring issues of pain and sadness I feel? Or should this relationship end because it can never be how it was before this happened? more

Resolved Question: How to get over a persistent crush?

*sighs* I know this is childish to most people... Especially when I'm turning 16 in less than 5 months. But I'm suffering from a big teenage distraction here and need help 'curing' it -- Crush. This guy - I'll just call him L, since his name starts with said letter - has been my classmate and friend ever since my memory started serving me. We weren't close or the best of friends, even though we get arranged to go for the same classes 90% of the times spent in school. Earlier last year, when I just turned 14, he told me he had a crush on me. I got kinda' grossed out because he's younger than me by almost 18 months... I'm like his "noona" (Korean for elder sister) for goodness sake! We later came to a compromise and agreed not to talk about his romantic feelings. We soon became good friends as the holiday that followed passed - spent a lot of time together during the summer vacation. It was then I realised how 'cute' he looked like when he smiles. And even the littlest thing he does could make me blush/smile. Last month, I've heard rumours that a certain girl from another school likes him. I didn't believe in those rumours (since most of them aren't as true as how they sounded) until I noticed a girl waiting for him at the gate, always, when school dismisses. Her uniform. Was not. The same. As ours. I asked him if he likes her, and he said he would never like that girl. But still... she's... "hot", I quote from the other guys I know. And I just want to get over this crush before it gets too deep - I don't want to be disappointed and let a heartbreak be a crutch in my studies. Anyone has a really good advice?Thank you so much, everyone! Amd yes, I'll tell him how I feel... but then that would be another problem... How do i say it? LOL. I dont' just say, "Um, hey, Liam. I-kinda'-have-a-crush-on-you-ish." right? O_O Because I've never asked a guy out before... it's always the other way round... so... lol. Anyway, thanks everyone! more

Resolved Question: Is this really a friend I should keep?

I don't mean to write an essay. I know this is a long story but I can't ask a specific question without providing some background information first. I hope you would understand. I have known a friend for a little over 2 years now. We both attend the same college and are working for the same degree. In my first semester, we shared one class together. We would study for a few hours and part our ways after we were done. I had no problem with that. The problems started arising starting my second semester. We shared 3 classes together. He started asking for me to do his homework. At first, I thought it was fine. Soon after, it started becoming a regular thing. He would start asking me for small favors and I would do them since it wasn't too big of a deal. It was only until the end of the second semester that I noticed this is getting out of hand. He ended up losing all his courses due to an issue. I ended up failing two courses. I decided to take the courses over summer school. I also intentionally have had no contact with him for most of the summer. He calls me at the end of the summer asking why I don't keep in contact with him. In my third semester, we shared 1 class together. He needed help with 3 of his classes so I helped him with them. It ended up that I did all of his assignments for one of his classes and was studying with him for an average of 8 hours every weekday and weekends. I was really getting upset that I cannot spend my time the way I want. I have neglected to put aside time for myself to study. The semester finished with him barely passing his classes and me failing 2 more and getting placed on academic probation. During the winter vacation, one of his close friends is going away for vacation for a few months. He says he's lonely so I'm pretty much the only other person he speaks to. I also learned so much about him and his problems in life. Being the sympathetic person I am, I decided to spend some time with him. He started hanging out with me more often to the point where we much meet up almost everyday. He would call me every night and expects that I call him at least once a day. I was getting uncomfortable seeing/hearing him so often, I just wanted to get away from him. I started talking to him about my problems with him and we would get angry because I cannot express my thoughts clearly. "For example: We just watched a movie a few days ago and a few days later, he offered to watch another movie. I refused his offer and he would ask me why. I responded that I don't feel like watching another movie and he would ask me why again as if it was not an acceptable answer to him." This went on for some time now until school started again. Finally in my fourth semester, we shared one class together. At first he asked me to do his homework for 2 of his classes because his computer doesn't work. There's one month left of this semester and it's just starting to get fixed. I then got involved in a situation where I ended up taking a class that I am completely not responsible for but if I don't do it, he will fail that course. However, (not to be completely negative) he did help me get back on track from my academic probation problem I had earlier. Now it's getting to the end of the semester and we already have plans for the summer semester. He said he will be going away for the rest of the summer and that (quote from him) "[You are] free to do whatever [you] want." I really find that bothering since it somewhat implies that I cannot do whatever I want now until he leaves. And this brings up to the main dilemma I have: Is this really a friend I should keep? I don't really want to dump a friend but really have had enough. I ran out of tolerance a long time ago but I can never find the courage to speak up or do something to about this. I know I've dug myself into 2 years worth of problem but I want to know how to get out. I feel like I am not what I used to be anymore and I don't like it. I am getting desperate, I am willing to do anything to get away from him (legally of course), but I just don't know what to do. I have confronted him with my problems before but whenever I speak with him I can never get my thoughts straight and freeze halfway into the conversation. I end up having no response and he would get annoyed and keep repeating "Huh?!" over and over until he gets an answer he wants when it's so hard trying to organize my thoughts in the heat of an argument. He would also keep hammering me with questions such as, "Why?", "What have I done to deserve this?", "Have I done anything wrong?", etc., etc., etc. I really need help and would gladly appreciate any assistance. I am also open to all suggestions and criticisms you may have to offer. Thank you in advance. more

Resolved Question: Advice on getting my first tattoo?

I'm a 19 year old female. Recently I've been on a "bold" attitude streak and have been contemplating on getting a tattoo. It was something that I wanted to do when I turned 18, but I was still in my parents house and now that I'm in college, the liberating lifestyle has pushed that notion back to the surface. ;] So, I have my mind set on getting a tattoo on my left rib cage of a quote that I learned to live by: "stay strong. NO COMPROMISE." That's what I want ('cept for the quotemarks of course). I heard that the rib cage is really painful to get a tattoo on, but I'm in for the pain - I just want to know how much of it I'm in for. Are there any things I should do to prepare for this? Is there anything I should look for when I go to a parlor? I'm getting it once summer vacation starts for me.@Nikolas Thanks. It's not going to be big - it'll just be a line across the cage. And it'll only be in black ink in a simple font. I'm glad I have until summer to think about this. more

Resolved Question: does she feels the same way like i do?

i court a girl one time before i leave my home country. i did like this girl the whole high school days, but at the prom night, she was kinda alone, but the only thing i did was took a picture with her using my friends camera. then after the graduation, i tried to make a time to communicate with her in any possible way i can. we even did play badminton together during summer. but when her badminton broke, she never played with badminton with me again. (i only have one racket too). then college days came, she took the other college, while i took the best nursing college in my city (and i blew it off). at midterms, my dad says that anytime sooner i'll be joining him in US. then i realized, i better tell her now what i really feel towards her, the next day, i sent her a love quote from a love song. she did reply, she said what "do u mean" or sumthin like that. i only replied 3 dots. ( I LOVE U), i think she got the message. then, after school i told her that any time sooner, i'll be migrating to US. she seemed disappointed. i even tried meeting her in a bus station just to ride with her, but i always was always late waking up in the morning, even going home, but she goes home 3 hours later than me (we ride in the same bus station goin home). after the 2nd semester, semester break came, and again, coz i dont have anything else to do, i did text her, GM (Group Message), quotes (any type), but she did'nt texted me back always like we did before in high school days. i had summer classes but she didn't have. communication can be barely recognized. after the summer classes ( we still have a week and a half vacation) i was already arranging my papers to US. i havent told my friends yet that i'm going to US, even to her. 2 days b4 i depart, i told her, she seemed ok and still the same. as soon as i saw her online, when i was in US, i told her that i was now in US (permanent now). it looks like she missed me (but not a lot). i tried adding her as a friend in facebook, but no response. what should i do? more

Voting Question: What should I do about my Girlfriend not telling me the truth?

I have been dating my girlfriend for the better part of 8 months, and since the beginning she has been totally shady. I understand it's my fault for not confronting the issue when I noticed it the first time, but I haven't been in that many relationships before and I didn't think much of it( plus i wasn't to keen on invading her personal privacy because i do care about her). Either way, after our first date and around 3 weeks of hanging out together I drove by her apartment on the way to class and another guys car is parked at her apartment, This guy, in particular, had been extremely jealous of me when he first learned that she was interested. He always mentioned something obvious like, "You know she likes you right?" Anyway I called her asking if she had already found a replacement, to which she replied no of course, and that he had slept on the couch with her friend (Which is total b.s. and her apartment is a tiny one- bedroom). A month later she goes to Hawaii with her family for two weeks. When she returned instead of coming back to see me (we met at school and that's where i was), she stayed in her home town for another week and a half. I found out from some friends of mine that she had been talking to one of her ex's and they were facebooking all summer. When she finally returns from her "vacation", things are not the same at all. She treated me like a friend for almost two weeks after. In between this time I notice she keeps getting text from the same guy repeatedly all day and night. Considering that she had gone through my phone and facebook page, I jumped at the opportunity to go through hers. The guy she had been texting had wrote things like "yeah I hope they never find out", "it's been so long since i've had sex" and she said things like, "Glad I could help you out." Also, on her facebook page on August 8, 2009 she put "(her name) loves (this guy, which was the guy she had been texting). She also posted a quote from Mae- "Embers and Envelopes" on Aug. 8, 2009 her blog suggesting she had done something she may regret but was not sure. She still text this guy to this very day. She has blurted out several comments about her ex's when she is drunk and does not think anything of it. Her birthday rolls around on Aug. 15, and I catch her in the bathroom with one of my friends doing xanax (this same friend spent the night at her house and she said he slept on the couch as well. I know this guy, and he would hump a catchers mit once again it was just him and her this time, and she still said he slept on the couch in that small apt?! yeah right.). They were both hammered drunk because i talked to both of them on the phone that night. Another insane instance, her U.S. History professor and her have been texting back and forth. She tried to forward the texts to a friend because she thought it was cool that a "hot" professor wanted her to hang out, and accidentallysent them all to me as well. She claims that she was just doing it because she didn't know he was trying to hit on her and blah blah. She still texts him to this very day and says that it's harmless. Finally, perhaps the last straw for me, she left her journal in my car, on Valentines Day! This journal only included one entry and it was dated Feb 12, 2010 (im guessing either she meant for me to see this or she transfers the other entries to another notebook). Some of the lines that shocked me: "reminds me of sexy freshman trials, uninhibited by obligations to others feelings..." "2 dorm beds, and 2 friends with a deniable yet ridiculously hot attraction to one another.." "sexy passionate gestures, lips in perfect synchronization the parting of which allows his tongue to touch hers.." "she pulls his body towards her for a mind blowing kiss.." She goes on to talk about how he ends up giving her oral sex and how despite what she is doing now she is happy and filled with emotion when she thinks about it, and she mist always remember that "she has felt that!". It made me sick to my stomach. I had just bought her flowers etc.. not three minutes later i'm reading that garbage. It seems like she has been all bad, but I love her. We've had plenty of memorable experiences i'll never forget, but it just seems like everyday something else is uncovered to prove how stupid I am for putting up with this. I know I shouldn't have gone through her phone, but like I said she still does it to me, and I had probable cause for sure. She denies ever lying, cheating, or doing anything she isn't suppose to. Although, the things I have listed in this inquiry have been proven, no maybes here. I need advice on what to do. She tells me she loves me and wants to be with me forever, but I do not think I can continue this relationship as laid back as I am. I cannot keep up with the lies. Someone please help quickly!!! more

Voting Question: weight loss after ditching diet and exercise?

for reference, i'm female and just about 19 now. i normally, i go to the gym monday, wednesday and friday spending an hour on an elliptical and another 30 minutes doing light but rapid weight exercises (as i don't want muscle out of it.) i normally eat a normal portioned dinner and small snacks through out the day (a piece of fruit, some crackers, some lettuce, etc.) i'm within the average or healthy weight bracket for my height and never can bring myself into an overweight or underweight bracket no matter what i'm doing at the time being (both and good and bad thing.) i went on vacation last summer for about a week and ate whatever i wanted, drank most nights (and days) and didn't obviously go to the gym. i lost 5 lbs and chalked it up to a fluke, especially since i was wearing myself out and probably unintentionally getting exercise out of it. while the semester ended i had a three week winter break before the next one and the "i'll go back to the gym tomorrow..." quote took place through out. i've since went back and noticed i lost 20 lbs. since the last time i went to the gym three weeks prior. i look absolutely no different, but a home scale and a gym scale all can't lie. i can't complain what-so-ever but it makes me curious as to how that happened. over the three weeks particularly, i ate probably a bit worse than usual, making late night meals a nightly thing and drinking constantly. i didn't go out anymore than usual (as to disclude the option that going out more was maybe burning more) but rather during the time that i'd normally be going to classes, the gym, and running errands, it was indulging in far more sloth-esque behavior than usual. as said prior, i have no complaints over this, as i'd love to lose weight, but it was a bit confusing and i'm interested in knowing how to continue this trend without just ceasing going to the gym.i think the point is being missed here. during the holidays i had a particularly unhealthy period where weight loss occurred, which is the main objective. while at the gym and eating healthy, it stays stagnant. i, as aforementioned, can't complain about doing whatever i chose and losing weight while doing so, but at the same time i was curious as to how such a thing happened. more

Voting Question: I Still Like My Ex But He's With My Friend?

So, I have this "friend". Lets call her "M". The reason friend is in air quotes is because sometimes she's relly cool but she likes to lie and talk about people behind their backs,including me. So last year I went out with my best guy friend for 4 months.Lets call him "H". He broke up with me in early summer vacation. When we went back to school, he met this girl thats been my best friend since 2nd grade.Lets call her "A". She didn't know I had even gone out with him when he asked her out,so she said yes, and I told her I didn't mind. Then M told me that she liked H and tried to steal him from A. So A and M got in a huge fight. Soon after, M told A that she was sorry and didn't lke H anymore. Then A broke up with H just a few days after her and M became friends again. RIGHT after A boke up with H, M called A a bitch and said she loves H. Now H wants to go out with M but I'm not sure he really likes her. I think he's trying to make A jealous. And even worse, I still like H. He flirts with me all the time and calls me everyday before he does something like 'asking someone out'. He called me after him and A broke up and told me that he wanted to go out with M. I told him he shouldn't but I wouldn't tell him why. And he figured out, just by the way my voice sounded, that it was because I knew someone else that likes him. I really don't know what to do. I don't really care if M gets mad at me for still liking him even though she has no reason to be mad. They are completely not right for each other but they won't listen to me when I tell them that. Even if I didn't like him, I still wouldn't want them to go out. So do i tell him I still like him? Do I try and keep them from going out? What do I do???? more

Resolved Question: My Boyfriend Doesnt Trust Me...?

... And has a really bad attitude. And it's ruining (ruined?) our relationship. Let me start at the beginning: My best friends cousin and I have been dating on and off for the last two years. We even took a vacation together last summer to the Dominican Republic, which was amazing. He is loving, thoughtful, generous, curious, and interesting, and we almost always have fun together. The problem is, he is also very moody and insecure, which causes him to snap at me and also creates constant tension and bickering. He has actually been diagnosed with bipolar disorder but refuses to take his meds because he maintains that 'he's not crazy.' His insecurities have also caused a huge rift to grow in between us because of trust issues. He has zero trust in me and always thinks I'm cheating on him when I go out with friends. He has even gone so far as to ask me to get my phone cut off because he believes I'm constantly texting and emailing the guys I'm having sex with. He also believes I talk on the phone with them while he's sleeping or when I'm in the bathroom. Although he bought me an engagement ring LAST YEAR, he confessed that he can't bring himself to give it to me because of his trust issues. He recently told me that he was going to propose this summer on a beach trip we'd planned but didn't because the night before the trip he 'caught' me staring at a guy in a bar (I still have no idea what he's talking about). We haven't even had sex in two weeks, since I hung out with a male friend after he received neck and oral surgery. My (ex?) bf is convinced that we had sex and hasn't been intimate with me since, claiming he feels 'disgusted' and 'can't bring himself to touch me.' But his claims are based on nothing but a feeling that something is 'off' about the friendship. (Everything in quotes are his words.) We had been living together for the past few months, really trying to make it work, but the breaking point occurred last week. He accused me of not picking up his phone calls and I said I didn't receive any (an argument we've had many times before; we both have t-mobile), but this time I just snapped. I screamed at him that he didn't have to talk to me with such a nasty attitude and so disrespectfully. He screamed back that I didn't have to cause a scene in public and I came downstairs intending to pick an argument. The fight quickly escalated until we were screaming curse words at each other and he told me 'If I didn't like his attitude, I could pack my shit and go.' So I did, and now I'm basically homeless and crashing with friends. He called me at 6 am the next morning and told me he was sorry and how much he missed me; while I haven't agreed to come back, I've seen him every day since the fight to try and work it out. We got into another argument this morning though, over whether or not I locked a door the day before (smh). This resulted in him throwing a temper tantrum and storming out, since I had slept over his house the night before. I love him and I really want to make this work, but I'm really getting tired of all the BS. I'm tired of trying to force him to trust me when I haven't done anything wrong, I'm tired of his mood swings, I'm tired of the manipulation, the control, the jealousy... I'm tired of his nasty comments, I'm DEFINITELY tired of no sex. But we already have so much time invested in this relationship and when things are good between us, theyre REALLY good... Plus I know there are other forces at work here (ie, the bipolar disorder and temper problem... he also used to have a really bad coke habit which still messes with his mind) and I don't know if I should just try to weather the storm. Plus, I'm desperately in love with him and I can't even bear to imagine him with someone else. How do I know when it's time to let go? When enough is enough? What do you guys think? more

Resolved Question: Can I get into Michigan State? Chance me!?

Hi everyone I am about to be a senior this fall and I am reallly hoping to go to MSU. i am applying to their fairly new residential college in the arts & humanities. I went to visit it during the spring and I met with one of the admissions directors for it and she really seemed to like me and I liked her. I got a great feeling when I was there, I knew it is the place I am meant to go. School: Country Day School [very rigorous college prep school and my college counselor said MSU holds spots for country day kids] GPA: this is just a guess but its probably a 3.3 unweighted ; I received an 84 average GPA for the end of Junior year. It was probably higher the past 2 yrs. APs: i took AP psych [waiting for results of the test] and I am taking AP stats, AP photography and AP Shakespeare this upcoming year. i also took honors french SAT: 500M 570CR 610W ACT: Composite: 26 ; 28 English; 20 Math ; 29 Reading ; 27 Science ; 8 Writing [on 8-12 scale] And I know my math is low but I sent MSU the ACT I took before this and got a 23 in math . EC: Freshman year: JV soccer, strength & conditioning, yearbook club, french club, choir Sophomore year: JV soccer, strength & conditioning, yearbook club, french club, art & design Junior year: V mountain biking, JV tennis, french club, diversity council, photography senior year: V cross country, JV tennis, french club [treasurer], diversity council [will have a position], AP photography Community service: 40+ hours ; babysat for my church , worked at a food bank ; took pictures at vacation bible school for a week ; helped out with a garden tour; worked at a dance recital Internship: I had an internship at a courthouse with a Judge for the whole summer before 11th grade. Recommendations: I am getting one from my English teacher. English is my passion and I have received high A's on all of my papers from this English teacher. She has been my teacher for 3 years in a row. She writes very good recommendations and quotes sentences from essays the student has written. ; I will also get a recommendation from the Judge I worked for because she got to know me personally and can give a good recommendation based on my characteristics and qualities. Essay: I already wrote my essay because we had a whole workshop for a month on it in my junior English class. we learned how to write the best we can for college and what colleges are looking for. i received a 96 on it from my teacher so i will be sending that one in. Classes: I have taken 5 english classes [2 senior year], 5 history classes [2 senior year], 4 sciences, 4 maths, 4 years of french, and i have taken art/photography or speech/health for every year. So i have taken as many if not more of the classes MSU recommends. Improvement: This year, I really improved in most all of my classes. my hardest classes were AP psych and honors french. I went from a C- in the first semester of honors french to a B+ [86] by the end of the year. And for psych, I went from a C+ to being one point from an A-. I know MSU looks at improvement. Sorry it's long, but whoever will chance me i will be very grateful! If you don't feel like chancing me, maybe you can tell me what you think of MSU acceptance and how hard/easy it is to get in Thank you!! more

Resolved Question: Should I wait and see happens?

Ok long story short met a girl at the end of the school year we met once we got a long pretty well had similar major interests such as beliefs(both agnostic with mixof other things) and ifelt like I could really be myself around her. Summer came but when I realized I really liked her I was going to until the start of the next school year(highschool) to tell her and ask her out but i told her online since I had myself while on vacation I couldn’t walk or do anything. We would have had a date this week but she decided to not date me because of her emotional instability with some things going on with parents/stepparents (2 days before this she declared me as HER boyfriend). Now I feel like she did this to hurt me when she could have said this in the beginning and I would have been more understanding. Also she has had boyfriends that haven’t treated her right such as cheating, offering drugs, degrading her with rude jokes in front of friendsetc.. What should I do? I want to wait for her and give her some support but I don’t feel like she really likes me the way she said “I felt excited that you liked and I really wanted to go out with you” <- just a quote of one of the many things she said to me. This would have been my first date but not the first time a girl rejected me… I even bought a nice shirt for our would bedate :( more

Resolved Question: How do I get my mom to stop PUSHING so hard?!?

I'm 14 years old, with an 11 year old brother and 5 year old sister. My mom constantly competes us with other children--and I am not speaking in a sense of sports. I'll elaborate: A friend of my mother's told her of how her 16 year old son spends time absorbed in his studies even during the summer vacation, and is constantly purchasing education books and writing research papers even when no assignment is due. My mother then borrowed several books from the library, and made me study and write research papers over the summer break. Furthermore, she would create her own exams and quizzes, and would order me to study and take a more intensely composed exam if I scored below a 95. On another occasion, my mother viewed a talk show which guest starred a 7 year old child by the name of Emily Bear who possessed an enchanting and phenomenal piano talent, and could play and compose many sorts of classical pieces. Well--who do you suppose was in the music store the same week shopping for a piano? What really aggravated the 3 of us to the core when she would force us to learn the piano was the way she would say, "If a 7 year old can play Beethoven and Chopin, then you can do it too!" and would talk about how we would be in classical concerts by the time we would graduate high school. Another show featured a 4 year old with a remarkable memory who memorized speeches from notable figures such as Dr. Martin Luther King or Abraham Lincoln, and could state different political figures such as who the Secretary of Defense was. And just as I feared, she immediately began forcing my brother to memorize the Presidents not on in order, but also which year served and which number. She forced me to memorize the entire Chemistry table and numerous notable quotes from authors, philosophers, and political figures. She forced my sister at the age of 5 to recite Lincoln's Gettysburg Address and Dr. King's "Free at last" speech as well as grilled her with other political hullabaloo that I know she had no clue about. She even took it a step further with me and forced me to do mathematical problems in my head without the use of any paper (ie: 475 x 78 or 2575 divided by 15) She read about a wealthy entrepreneur who started his fortune by selling lemonade as a child, and was a full fledged millionaire by the time he was 21 (or something to that effect, I am not quite certain). She immediately purchased a lawn mower and demanded from my brother and I to mow lawns around the city and to make a minimum of $30 per day, or we would forfeit supper for that day. By my calculations, that is $900 a month--the same amount as a full time job at minimum wage. Keep in mind I was only 12! Needless to state, most of the money we made was to keep ourselves fed. I'm quite certain she found it entertaining to have invented a new method of reducing her grocery expenses. At the moment, I am sitting here in my room, having literally ripped every page out of my chemistry book out of blind frustration over her demand for me to write a dissertation and thesis complete with quotes and footnotes. I am brinking on a nervous breakdown, and I don't know what to do. My mother only wants to have elite children for pride and self exaltation purposes: "MY kids are straight A students and can do calculus in their heads! MY kids can quote FDR's inaugural speech! MY kids can play Beethoven 9th symphony and placed first in the world championship! MY kids are worth $50 million dollars each and they made it all themselves! MY kids have Ph.D's and they aren't even old enough to drive!" I really want to be myself--not the pawn of someone else's stubborn pride and oversized ego? What do I do in this situation? Please help! more

Resolved Question: Friend is mad because I can't attend her destination wedding?

One of my best friends from college is getting married in Ireland this summer. I'd love to attend, but I'm a grad student and can't really afford it right now. I explained this to her, but she's still angry. She says I could have been saving money to go to the wedding all year... instead of going out and going on vacation over Christmas break and Spring break. Exact quote, "I thought you were a good friend, but you chose your social life over doing the right thing." I don't think I should have to sacrifice MY social life for HER destination wedding...but then again, I feel bad because I probably could have splurged on her wedding if I hadn't gone on trips earlier in the year. What do you think? Am I at fault? or is her anger unjustified? more

Resolved Question: Girl I like has boyfriend... should I confess?

Okay here is the deal... I've become real close friends with this girl in the 2nd semester of my grade 11 school year. In the 1st semester I just occasionally asked her for some homework help, and she sometimes did the same back. One day she said she was going to the library and ask me to come. So I came and then it somehow became a daily thing. We would meet every weekday at the library afterschool to study together if both of us did not have anything planned. Right from the start, she was just a classmate, but before I knew it, i started to hold feelings for her. Then we were talking, and I found out she had a boyfriend; she just mentioned it while we were talking. When I heard this, I felt really sad. She told me she is in a long distance relationship with him, we are in Canada, and he is in Taiwan. Everyday she counts to day until she gets to see him again, it seems like she's going back to Taiwan for the whoel summer vacation. She'll get to see him, I don't know if they will get intimate or not... she's 17, I am 17, her boyfriend is 19/20. Anyways I asked numerous people about this... and they told me either to stop, or wait it out. They said that long distance relationships barely work out... and even though this sounds so selfish and mean of me, I wanted them to break up... I feel bad. People told me not to make any advancing moves on her because that would disrespect her boyfriend, and so, I don't make any. But I hang out with her everyday, and it hurts to know that I can't tell her my feelings because she has a boyfriend. I read a book and saw this quote, She says, “If I were to withdraw immediately after finding out he had was someone else… then I shouldn’t have fallen in love to begin with. Your own feelings are all that matter in the end! I don’t think giving up is the right way to end a love affair… who I choose to love is my own choice!” I just don't know what to do... this waiting out thing just hurts. People have said to find someone else, but I just can't do that, because I am not the type to let things dear to my heart leave easily. I cling on to it, hoping for any light of hope. Should I tell her how I feel? I am scared I may never get to hang out with her again normally if I do so. Or should I stop hanging out with her... but if I do that I will be filled with regret... It seems like the only way to solve this is telling her how I feel. But it's impossible... she has a boyfriend already across the world. I am scared she won't want to hang out with me anymore, and that my fun high school days will turn back to the normal boring ones where I just went home everyday... I want to be with her... but she has a boyfriend. Life seems cruel to me. Last year, there was this girl I liked as well, but she moved, and I never got to tell her how I feel. We were very close friends. I felt so much regret that summer and 1st semester of school, it took me a while to get over. But why is this happening again? I didn't know she had a boyfriend, then out of nowhere she has one... I feel like crying all night. Can anyone help me or guide me what to do? more

Resolved Question: What do i do with my life?

Throughout my life i have had a horrible experience. I had willm's tumor (Cancer in the kidney). For years i was in bad schools and ended up in many situations that the police (not shitty school security) have to become involved. Ive been beaten up, threatened to die, and to what i consider extreme bullying by a good total of 30-40 people in my school. (An incredible amount of emotions were being bottled up by this time and will continue untill the 10th grade)After 7th grade i moved and things began to get a bit better yet i still had alot of problems at home with my brother (who has been abusive since i was in 5th grade) and my parents who did a cruel thing and told me they were getting divorced if i didnt do better in school, which just made things worse. When i hit 9th grade things got alot better yet there was also another problem that had been with me since 5th grade, which was an overweight problem as well as very strange gynocomastia. Socially, i was "ok" in ninth grade yet i also had a videogame addiction which had followed me since i had cancer. Things were getting better since i picked up the guitar and i stopped my video game addiction by march of that year(last year). I had a great summer and by the end of it i decided to begin loosing weight and from mid august to mid september i got from 177 to 159. As my birthday came up in october 7th things were just getting better and better yet i had this irritation problem building up. I picked up swimming again(i was in many championships when i was little and when i had cancer) yet i stopped by the end of that month. By the swimming i dropped another 2 pounds. During late october i began getting intense mood swings. I went to the hospital after a huge epidemic of crying, laughter, depressions and huge stress. In early november my mood swings ended but i obtained depression and anxiety issues. I had several incidents during that month of me seeing people and seeing them dissapear, as well as hearing voices telling me to give in and worship the devil. The worst one made me yell out "Take my soul" and i ended up seeing someone appear right next to me and then just kept on walking. The depression worssened along with a huge amount of stress (Forgot to mention since late october i began seeing a psychiatrist). By learly to mid december i was at the point of crying to how bad i felt and how stressed out i was with my school work and emotions at the same time, since i was trying to maintain a good grade. My parents took me on a so called "vacation" during christmas break. The reason why i quoted vacation was that when we went down to florida we spent 80% of the time buying things for my older brother and his apartment there. When we came back i was getting ready for my surgery to remove most of my gynocomastia in which i had been waiting for over a year to do.(The appointment was set for me to wait a year). I got two extra weeks off of school for some recovery yet i still am recovering today. about a week ago i had gotten my weight down to 155 and i stopped eating as much as i used to. I began eating only once a day because i was afraid of gaining weight again and for the past two days i didnt eat yet my mom found out and kind of made me eat today. My weight dropped to 151. I was trying to become anorexic on purpose. I am worried if im going to do more things to hurt myself. I kind of think im doing this for medical attention in which is something that i love having, its somewhat something i lookforward to anytime something happens. Or i might just be doing this for attention in general. Im worried i might go a step higher and do something worse not to mention the suicide attempts i had during my depression stage. Since i stopped eating i have had my energy drained almost completely, im having alot of concentration issues, i have felt kind of light headed and i nearly collapsed a few hours ago in the bathroom. Im pretty worried and i dont get to see my therapist untill friday, and i dont want to tell my parents cause all they will do is yell at me, and no i have no one else to tell this to because my friends wouldent really care too much, they would laugh at me or they would just not understand because their lives have gone pretty much perfect so far. I am wondering what to do?!(I did not want to type this all again so I am using this from another question I had yesterday) My problem today is that I felt even worse today, in fact ive never felt so bad that I felt like I was dying inside, and I still have to go to school with this. My parents wont give me a day off because I already had my so called “Vacation” when I was out recovering from surgery. Today I got home and I still feel like shit but a little bit better from earlier. I feel a bit empty headed and stress is just building up more more and more and im up to the point of crying now. Im getting more thoughts of suicide and planning to just make myself sleep through benedril and Nyquil. What do I do? more

Resolved Question: Back into riding, a tad nervous, any advice?

I recently took some time off riding due to being very busy and wanting to give my horse a vacation. (She was exercised and taken care of the whole time, so dont worry). This Monday I am going to begin riding her again and for some reason I am just a tad nervous, really for no reason at all... I am really bad about holding my breath when I ride and making my horse get nervous . I am an advanced rider that has been riding for 12 years but I am still a little on edge, because I had a riding accident( my first one ever) back this summer with another horse.
