Open Question: What do you think of this story?

Note: It's only part of it, not all of it. A little boy holding onto his mom's hand eagerly jumped up and down. Andy smiled at the boy. The boy grinned at him and showed off his stitches on his left arm. "That's awesome." he said, smiling. "I've never had that many stitches before." He liked children. They were cute and they didn't bother him. His family always let him babysit his twin cousins who lived in England whenever he or they came to visit. He often fed them junk food, allowed them to watch horror films, and read them inappropriate books. Earning him the title of "the bestest cousin in the universe." Standing in line with his friends, he looked at Savannah who was reading her guide to Kings Island. The park didn't let open until ten-o'clock. Savannah was beautiful and looked innocent. Which made people including Andy himself want to protect her. Holly did it, Carter did it, more than likely her parents did it, and even strangers off the street did it. She had on jean shorts and a yellow tank top that said Kenya Dig It. Her hair was tied into a ponytail, making her look sexy, but casual. She was sexy alright. And she didn't even know it. Her sexiness was usually unintentional and spontaneous. He thought about Palma and Monica. Other pretty girls he was friends with. A little guilt came over him when he thought about breaking up with Palma. As much fun he had with her, he wanted to meet new people. He was sure she felt the same. Monica on the other hand had more chemistry with him than anyone he had ever met. It made no sense that she was going out with Kaleb Wood. Kaleb treated Monica like she was a trophy. She wasn't a trophy. She was more than that. Eventually, the gatekeeper allowed them in, causing hordes of people to bombard their way in. A couple of guys accidentally smashed into Savannah, nearly knocking her over. "Watch it!" retorted Carter, supporting Savannah by her arm. "People are just rowdy." Andy said, even though he was being a little hypocritical. He often acted like that himself. "What rides are we going on?" Danielle asked, tightening the straps of her camisole. "The Beast." Andy answered. "And Savannah's gonna ride it with me." "No, I'm not!" she protested. "Yes, you are." he said. "You're gonna ride it with me rather you like it or not." Savannah giggled. Riding a roller coaster couldn't that bad if there was someone else riding with her. At least it reassured her that if she was going down, the person next to her would go down as well. Reese and Holly's eye grew wide when they saw Spongebob standing by the fountain with the Paramount Studios Logo in it. "Spongebob!" cried Reese, darting towards Sponebob. Holly ran after her. They stood next to Spongebob and asked no one in particular to take a picture of them. Maris reached into her knapsack and pulled out a thin digital camera. After taking the picture, Maris suggested everyone to get in the picture. Lucas, Mark, and Elisha got in front of Sponebog while Andy, Carter, and Savannah got behind him. Andy had no idea why everyone was getting so excited over an underpaid, disgruntled pervert in a yellow sponge costume. He didn't complain about it and waited for Lauren to take the picture. "Everyone say 'cheese!'" she said, holding the camera to get everyone in view. "Cheese!" they all said in unison, wrapping their arms around the nearest person around them. Andy was glad when the picture time was over with. He was ready to get on the rides. "Should we split up?" asked Elisha. "You kids need to be together." said Lauren. "What's the point of it being a vacation if you're just gonna split up?" Lauren had a smile on her face that begged the kids to not split up. She couldn't afford to loose anyone of them. It would be on her. "Maybe for a little while, mom." decided Holly. Lauren nodded. "What time are we going to meet up?" "Around five." answered Holly. "No later." "Okay." she said. "You guys have fun." "We will!" Andy said enthusiastically. When she was out of earshot, Andy turned to Holly. "I thought Elisha's mom was coming." "She was, but she got held up." she said. "I'm actually quite glad because my mom's more fun than Linda." Linda always made sure that no one did anything that caused trouble or harm. Lauren at least allowed the kids to have a little fun. They all explored around the park, looking for things to do. Andy shielded his eyes as the bright sun hit his face. "I'm going off with Mark." Elisha revealed. "We'll meet up in a little while." more

Open Question: Strange Girl Situation?

Just like 80% of Yahoo Answers users, I have a frustrating and incomprehensible Girl Problem On my way into this relationship, I was solid: I acted positive, confident, intelligent towards this girl who's a big nerd. Unfortunately, things didn't go perfectly, although they went very well. She was always coming over to my apartment, and I wasn't even being a 'player', I just wasn't at all needy to visit her apartment, and the power in the relationship was clearly mine. Then, we both moved apart. I knew that distance doesn't work, so I decided to break up with her, but leave things on good terms. We went on a vacation, and she was insecure as hell the whole time, that I "would certainly find some girl in the next week". She did, however, get me to make a pact with her that we would tell the other if we did anything with someone else. (Please let me know if this is reasonable, because at the time I thought it was!) I began to search for women in my new temporary summer residence. I lined up a date with one, and called the girl to let her know. She went terribly upset, thinking she was with still 'with' me, and such. I didn't go on the date, and I scheduled another vacation with this girl. After this, I was ready to move on again, and called to break up with her. We were a country apart, and I know that relationships are based on face-to-face interaction, and spending time with a person. She was hysterical, and at some point I went to visit her in her new home. Now I'm visiting her a second time, and I will transition from the facts to the feelings, telling the same story from a more emotional perspective. Early on, I didn't think she would amount to much, and I have a pretty dismal attitude toward most women and most men. I believe in some awesome friends, and I think an amazing woman may be out there somewhere, but I've never been very satisfied with women in the past, and this girl didn't seem like she would be all that different. However, she was really intelligent and we got along more or less. Her issues were getting over a boy who cheated on her, and then a boy who she left, though she felt they were both in love. This recent ex moved on quickly to another woman, and she remains jealous to this day. I fit her "type" and excelled her past boys in looks. She claims to have been pressuring me for sex in the beginning, initiating things, and I remember just having sex with her, but it didn't last very long and I never regarded her as an equal because of the lack of long-lasting, intimate sex. She feels in hindsight that the relationship was very good at that point, but I remember feeling awfully lonely at night when she'd be snoring next to me, and I'm dreaming of noone specific, but a woman that would stay awake having sex and talking for hours. She was depressed, and I narcissistically pictured myself as her hero, bringing her back from spiting boys forever, which is somewhat how she viewed me then. However, I lost my job and traveled the whole year, and generally acted in a way that left her thinking of me as an unfocused child. There's some truth to that, as I'm young and really had/have no certainty in what I want from life yet, I'm seeking adventure. As the relationship wore on, she frequently smiles and says I'm "so cuuuute", but it's somehow in an unsexual manner. However, she also feels very jealous and doesn't want me moving on to another woman. I feel the same way toward her moving on with another man, although I'm not quite satisfied. I think we both could be not satisfied BECAUSE the other is not in love with us, and that's the only thing missing? Or maybe we lack 'chemistry'. Whatever it is, I can't fully explain it from the frame of 'player' mindsets like Askmen.com which I've read. I can say that in some way, I've lost her interest. I've failed to make her feel romantic and believe in me because I lack this singular, guiding purpose in life. And I also don't give her 'trinkets' because I don't think they will amp up her attraction for me. I feel as though both of us are trapped loving each other and feeling some sexual attraction, but not quite enough, and this failure to satisfy each other, combined with her trust issues from past relationships is poisoning the situation. Intellectually and in almost every other way, we really hit things off. Though we both don't consider marriage a good idea at our young age (haha, half our friends are married, but still, we're in our low-20s), she at one point felt she wanted to marry me. Can some girls out there explain the truth about what's going on in her head? All at once, she's being mutually exclusive to me, wanting to move on, and not wanting me to move on. And now, after me trying to move on, and not really getting traction in any one place or job, and seeing her become much more optimistic, resilient, fit and happy in her new home, I'm feeling toward her the same way she felt and feels about me. Now I don't want her to move on, I'd feel more

Open Question: What is the best digital camera to get?

I'm looking to get a new digital camera soon but I'm not sure which one to get because there are so many. I do not want anything expensive, just something that will take good pictures and has a decent amount of space. This camera will only be used to take recreational pictures like vacation trips, birthday parties, etc. Pictures and prices will help. Thanks! more

Open Question: I've been dating my boyfriend exclusively for 5 months now and he hasn't introduced me to his family.?

We started dating for about a year but wasn't exclusive until 5 months ago. My bf doesn't really talk about his family much. His parents lives in the burbs almost 2 hrs away from the city. His parents are also very religous, they are Jehovah's Witness, however my bf doesn't really practice his religion at all. Now I'm wondering if that was the reason I've not been introduced to them yet. Or is it due to the fact that I'm a single mother of 3? He tells me that he loves me and he takes our relationship very serious. We just got back from vacation and the following day, he went to visit his parents and says that he showed them pictures of our trip together. Am I suppose to just believe him? If he showed his parents our picture, don't you think they would've made a comment about me or ask when they'll meet me? The funny thing was he did not mention anything about his parents making any comments about me, which I find very odd. Unless he doesn't want to hurt my feelings and try to spare me the details. Should I pry or just leave it alone? I'm curious what my bf said to them and vice versa. I on the other hand, have introduced him to my family and have taken him along at family gatherings, parties, etc, Could it be that he's just a private person when it comes to his family? How long do men wait until he takes his significant other to meet his parents? more

Open Question: my best friends older brother...?

one of my best friends who i have known my whole life has a brother who is three years older than me.. and i have known him (obviously) for as long as i've known her. anyways, he always thought of me as the quiet friend of hers, [but said it was a good thing because he hates when her friends are loud.].. they kind of make it a joke and say "becca, jees.. stop talking so much!". i never really noticed how sweet and fun and cute he is, because i've known him for so long. he has been giving me some signs that he could possibly be interested in me.. - at the hottub on vacation with his family it was foggy and i turned to find him staring at me, but then he looked away. - me, my friend, and him were starting to pose for a picture for her dad and he backed up in between us and put his arms around both of us {me on one side, my best friend on the other side.] - he put the picture on facebook and in the picture he is holding me closer to him than he is holding his sister. - we were snowboarding all together and he fell in front of me and got up and we looked at eachother and i said "haha, nice jobbb!" and he laughed and got up and pushed me to the ground so i lost balance when i wasn't looking this all could just be because im close to the family, but he is always looking at me and stuff like at dinner the other night. im not sure what to think. could there ever be a possibiilty of him being interested in me? evem though he's older. help please!! thanks! (: more

Resolved Question: Ok non-biased input needed, how would you take this? Bride/groom/wedding question..?

So in my family it's my brother, sister & me. Our father is out of the picture and our mother is passed away for 6 years. We're very close and have been in each-others weddings so far. Now my brother is getting married ( I was very fond of the girl and just LOVED her until this) and I live out of state. BEFORE he even got engaged I asked my soon to be sister in law that if they got married (they were talking about it) to please make it during a vacation time so our family (me, hubby & 2 elementary school aged kids with problems in school so they can't miss a whole week) would be able to come. My brother after all only has 2 family members to invite (and our hubbys & kids of course) So now of course she's pissed. Did I have any right to do that? He's my only brother..but she's the bride. And there was no real reason why the wedding had to be then except she likes dark purple and that doesn't work in spring and summer. So I get a call from the bride that the wedding date is set (in the middle of the school year), not near any vacations, long weekends etc. It's a 2 day drive each way + the wedding so min. of 5 days. So first I beg her to move it, she says she won't make everyone happy so no. I go back and forth then let my brother know that my hubby will have to stay here with the kids and I will come alone. And that I am very upset that they will miss it. more

Open Question: Having an issue with an Insurance Company?

I'm trying to see if anyone would know what the next step would be if a claim is denied. I was at a fast food restaurant sitting in the drive thru. While I was waiting, snow and ice fell on my windshield cracking and chipping it. When the ice fell, I looked at the girl in the drive thru and asked if they cleaned off the roof. She apologized and said they were trying their best to keep the roof clean. I drove out of the drive thru and that's when I noticed the chip and crack. I called the store back and the gentleman told me that he couldn't help me but to call back and speak to a GM. I did and ended up taking my car up there so that they can take pictures of the damage. I told the GM I was going on vacation in a few days, and I needed to get it repaired because my car was going to be sitting outside in the snow and I didn't want the crack to spider out. He told me ok and that he will contact his insurance company and see about getting me reimbursed. I got my windsheild repaired for $53. I just talked to the insurance company today and I was told my claim would probably be denied on liability because it was through no fault of the restaurant and she knew for a fact they were up their shoveling the roof. If the claim is denied, is there another route I can take to attempting to get reimbursed?yeah. I did try going through my insurance company. Thanks. more

Open Question: Help me find two Italian songs please!?

In the summer of 2009, I went to Italy on vacation. The only thing to watch on T.V was mTV, which wasn't so bad. There was these two songs that I absolutely LOVED! The only problem is that I don't know the name of the songs or who sings them. I do remember the music videos though. The first one has a male singer. In the music video, there's a photographer who gets hired to photograph a famous woman. He follows her around the whole day and then, when he gets home, she's there (she knew the whole time that he was following her.) The photographer ends up ripping up the pictures. The second one is of a little girl at the circus, and she kind of gets sucked in. The singer is obviously the older version of the little girl. The little girl (she has long curly brown hair) meets a boy her age who is dressed up like a clown. He gives her a Joker card. When she's older, she goes back to the circus and she meets the clown again. She gives him back his card and then walks away. It's pretty sad if you see it. I hope I gave you enough info. It was on MTV in the summer of 2009, and it they were pretty popular because they played them a lot. Thanks! more

Open Question: PLEASE HELP!!Long story, but your answer could really help, and if you skim it shouldn't take long to read!!!?

There is this guy that I have known for a couple of years. He is from another country. But I met him a few times on my summer vacation with my family. We started off as friends, since at the time he liked my sister. They only talked a few times online, and they didn't get along very much. But him and I stayed friends. After awhile I started to develop feelings for him, and I started to feel like he did too. After awhile we would be talking to each other until 4 am in the morning, and waking up and talking with each other. Things were really good for awhile, especially right before I left on my summer vacation. We had become very close, and although we had only been talking online. I really feel like he was apart of my life, since my day consisted of at least one conversation with him. I've also heard that if a guy talks to you before he goes to bed, and after he wakes up. That means something. We really did talk about everything. His family, my family. I feel like I made him a better person, and he always complimented me, and told me how great he thought I was. Then one time he found a picture of me, because I guess he did not remember what I looked like. He said I was HOT!!! He was really drooling. So at this point it was going well. Before I left I told him I had feelings for him, because I wanted to know if he did or didn't. This way if he did not, I could go on my summer vacation, and try to forget about it. But he told me that he felt the same. So at this point things were going well. He was attracted to me. Had feelings for me, I had feelings for him. I feel like I made him a better person, and I feel like he felt that way too. So I left for the summer, and during the summer I'd email him every once in awhile to see how he was doing. When I returned from my summer trip I really thought we would continue to keep talking. but he didn't sign on for a long time. So I realized that he changed his mind, and was no longer interested. I did not know why, but whatever. Then after a few months, he signed on again. And we chatted for a few days. Then once we were getting close, he would stop coming on again. Especially when he would say he would be on (For example, the next day at 4 we would decide to sign in and chat). And he would seem committed, but then he would sign on. And I wouldn't sign in for months. This pattern continued a few times. At one point I told him I had a youtube account, where I post music videos. And he watches the same genre of videos, so it wouldn't be surprising if he watched them. Sometimes, many times, when I was thinking about him, and the great times we had, I would look at him profile to see if he had been on youtube or recent videos he has watched. He knew I knew that was his account. After awhile he deleted the account, I don't know why, I don't think it had anything to do with me. But then in August I put up a live video I had seen of a concert, which he saw, and commented. Asking where it was, and I told him. And he said "Thanks, Jen". But I deleted the comment, since not many people know it's my account. This was in October, (around the time his cousin got engaged). Then soon after I got another one with the same comment saying the same thing, and I deleted it again. I then messaged the person asking who it was. I checked the profile, and it was from his country, his age. So for a second I thought it might be him. He didn't respond to my message for a long time. Then I got one saying, It's Paul, from Norway. I didn't respond to that for awhile since I hadn't signed in for about a week. I said oh yeah, how are you? He said, good how are you? I said good. And then I asked him about a guy that had recently passed away locally. Wondering if he knew him. But he never responded. I don't understand why he keeps coming back to chat. He has showed in numerous occasions that he does not want a relationship, regardless why. But why does he keep contacting me after time passes and I finally feel like I am getting over him. Once I feel my life is finally coming together. What is he thinking? I feel like you either want to be with someone or you don't. He doesn't want a commitment, yet he still keeps contacting me. I know I should just ignore him and shut him out of my life. That's a whole other story. But i just want to know what his problem is, and what is it that keeps him pulling in. I just want to understand what's going on!! It's been going on for so long, and I just do not understand! Please Help! Thanks!By the way, I know I should forget about him and get on my life. But when I just get started and feel like I have succeeded he contacts me. So I really gotta know why he does it!!! more

Open Question: What are your thoughts on personal celebrity blogs?

If somebody like Julia Roberts or Natalie Portman had a personal blog where they posted pictures of their vacations or something, would you still take them seriously as actors? Do you think celebrities with personal blogs are less credible and taken less seriously than those who don't? Furthermore, would you visit their blogs to see what they are up to? more

Open Question: should i go see this guy or not?

I met this nice online ( not on a dating site ) in 2006 and we became friends. We talked on the phone almost every day. He is very nice. He never got angry with me or made me angry. I liked him so much that I could not tell if I was in love with him. I do not think it is possible to love someone you do not know. Things were going well until he asked to meet me. But since we live in different states, he asked to visit him. I did not like that because I was 20 that time and for me he should come see me. I am kind of old school. I got tired of him asking me to go see him so we stopped talking. A few month later he changed his number and I did the same. Since he knew my email address he sent an invitation to create a facebook account just to be in touch with me. and I did not do it. For 3 years I managed to move on and did not try to contact him. and there was not a day I did not think I made a bad decision. I feel like I should have traveled to see him when he wanted me to. Well at the beginning of 2010 I sent him an email to wish him a happy new year and to know how he was doing. he replied to my email and said that that I forgot about him ( which was not true). He said my lack of motivation was the reason why we did not have a relationship. I gave my number to call one day so we can talk. The same day he called me but i did not pick up the phone because I was nervous. He called about 5 times a day for one week. I finally called him back and we talked for several hours on the phone. He told me that he has a son with a woman he was dating but it did not work out. ( he even sent some picture of him and his baby). I know I have feelings for this guy but somewhere in my heart i feel like this is not real since i have never seen him. I feel that maybe these feeling are just the hope that I will see him one day. My friends and I are going to take a trip to his state in the summer for a vacation and I am kind of confused. I do not know if I should go see him or not. and at the same time I do not if he likes me or not. Please help. more

Open Question: How do people end up getting really bad credit?

There's this one girl who I work with. She's 24 and lives at home with her parents. I have nothing against people who live at home with their parents, but she has bad credit. She said she's never moved out on her own and has always lived hone with her parents. She also said that she has really bad credit. That her FICO score is somewhere between 400 to 500. When I look at her Facebook, she always has pictures of her and her friends going on cruises and vacations, drinking, dancing, and having a good time. I don't get it ... how do people get bad credit? This girl should have excellent credit for living at home with her parents. She's also a big Obama lover. more

Open Question: my boyfriend of 2 in a half years broke up with me, but i believe he is unsure...please give advice!?

So my boyfriend and I have been together for 2 in a half years and we are completely in love. Or so I thought. Just weeks ago he was talking about marriage and children with me. And a year ago he bought me a promise ring and he said to me weeks ago " If we have a daughter, we should give this to her on her 16th birthday". He's a complete romantic when he wants to be. Anyway, We have always argued and had our tiffs here and there and he has broken up with me in the past about 4 times before because he wanted his freedom and he wanted to spend time with his much younger friends, but he has always come back after a few days. Another signifcant matter with us is that he is 26 and I am 19. However, I seem to be the more mature and certain one in the relationship. I never go to clubs, never have smoked, drank, and he is the only man i have ever been with. I go to school, work, and take care of my sick mother who is currently in the hospital, and I have been dealing with my 27 year old brother who has a serious drug problem who also lived with me and my boyfriend. The intense arguing began in the beginning of this month (February) and we got in our biggest arguement on the 9th( mind you, all these arguements are about my brother who is addicted to drugs)...things seemed odd between us, he went out the rest of the week with his much younger friend (20 years old) and the friend is a DJ. My boyfriend then told me that friday that he wanted to break up with me and I told him I understood, but he should really think about the situation. So then he decided to take a break from me and he moved most of his stuff out the following day. He waited for me to get home while he moved his stuff to tell me he loved me and hes not going anywhere and that we are just on a break..its temporary. He called me later that night to make small talk and he told me he loved me and that was the last I heard of him for a couple days. He then called me a couple days later saying how confused he was and he didn't know if he wanted to be in a relationship but he still loved me...he is only working part time right now and does not have a full time job and is now living with his 20 year old friend who parties constantly. Again he called me a couple days later telling me he still didn't know what he wanted and he would figure things out when he came home from his Vacation in Vegas to see his bestfriend( he was also saying he may want to look for a job out there)...I found a picture of him dancing with another girl so I called him on Friday and suprisingly, he answered. He knew I was going to see the picture, and I believe he wanted to see what I was going to say. I did end up yelling at him because I was so hurt..and he told me things were over between us and that he still cared but didn't love me anymore, and took the break to see if it's what he really wanted and he said it was. So I left him alone and he texted me on Monday ( a couple days later) to meet up with me because he owed me money. He gave me a hug as soon as I saw him and he was trying to make small talk and jokes with me like he normally does. I asked him to really think things through while he was in Vegas to see if this breakup is what he really wanted and he said " of course i will, but you know were not together right?" and I said "yes". Before I got out of the car he told me he loved me and that "that doesn't change after 2 in a half years". and he said he would call me. I havent heard from him, and I know he is on Vacation. However, he won't speak to anyone in his family either and hasnt since him and I took this break. I have been miserble this past month between everything that is going on with my brother and my mother and he did tell his sister I relied on him too much and that he was getting way too stressed out. Another thing is though, while we were in the car, he seemed sure about the break up, he said very cliche things like" I still care about you and your family, and I want you to do good for yourself." It's very difficult trying to cope with everything that is going on because just weeks ago we talked about moving in together and getting our own apartment, marriage, kids, etc. And because of that intense arguement it was all washed away in a matter of a week. So what my question is, do you think he will come back? He has other times before but it only took him a few days, its been 2 weeks now, but he is in Vegas. He did leave a lot of things at my house and he didn't mention anything about getting them when I met up with him. Do you think he is just confused and really needs his space and is having an early mid life crisis? I just don't see how you can tell someone you want marriage and children a few weeks before breaking up with the person. Please give me some advice if you, or anyone you know have been through something like this. Thanks so much. xoxo more

Resolved Question: Can women tell if a mustache is fake?

I've never been able to grow good facial hair. It's always been patchy and thin, like an old ladies. I took a vacation recently for two weeks and decided to try one of those personalized mustaches you can get online (you send pictures of yourself and they match the color and texture). To me, it looks really good, and I would probably believe it if I saw someone else wearing one. I figured 2 weeks is how long it takes most guys to grow a full mustache (it's pretty short, it looks well-groomed). Anyway, I've gotten a few compliments so far (from women), but I can't tell if they're being serious. They sort of half-smile when they say it. I don't want to humiliate myself, but I also don't want to waste the $130. Thanks more

Voting Question: My boyfriend has a photo of him making out with his ex (when they were a couple) on Facebook: is it ok?

On his facebook, there are old pictures that date back from when he was still with his previous girlfriend. These don't bother me (they do normal activities like vacations). HOWEVER there is one picture where they are making out, which i find inappropriate for it to still be online as he is with me since 4 months and its quite serious between us. I just told him this picture bothered me and he basically made me understand he wouldn't take it off because it belongs in the past and its part of who he is. He even seemed shocked, like i was violating his privacy that i tried to make him understand i want this picture to be taken offline. I really don't mind the old pictures of activities he did with his ex-girlfriend (i even have pictures of me and my ex-boyfriend on my facebook, but nothing intimate like even a small kiss) or him even still having old pictures of his ex still stored on his personal computer, but i find the one where they make out really ambiguous and it makes me uncomfortable every time i see it. I find it normal he had other people before me, and keeps pictures of them. But to leave the one where there is a make out session on facebook for everyone to see is disrespectful i think. Whenever i see that picture it drives me crazy even if it happened before he was with me. So i wanted to know if you think it is normal to leave promiscuous/intimate pictures of you and your exes on facebook? and if not how to make my BF understand that it hurts my feelings to see that ONE picture (but not the others of him and his ex doing normal stuff). what is your experience with this kind of stuff and do you think there is a border not to cross? more

Voting Question: What beaches in South Carolina have beautiful clear blue water?

I want to go on vacation in South Carolina this year. I went when I was younger and remember a white sand beach and clear light blue water, but the pictures of Myrtle Beach don't show that.

Open Question: Need input...Question about a diet?

I know it's unreasonable to have high expectations about sudden weight loss. And I know it's not healthy to go about it in the wrong way. But the situation is... I have a vacation that was booked as a surprise in 5 weeks. I want to be able to look good in a bikini, and look back at the pictures remembering what a good time I had, not what a big butt and tummy I had. I am 5'7.5", and weigh 165 pounds. I would absolutely love to get down to 140 pounds, but that's a bit unrealistic. My goal is 150 pounds. That's 15 pounds in the four weeks I've set out for my weight loss. I've never had much of an appetite, so I'm flexible with what I eat. My plan is: 15-30 minutes of exercise in the morning (Should this be before or after breakfast?) A light breakfast, probably just a bowl of cereal A low carbohydrate protein shake Mid-morning bottle of water A couple crackers and a glass of water And a glass of green tea for lunch Mid-Afternoon snack of a protein shake, and a Couple crackers, or a fruit/vegetable Throughout the evening, about 1 litre of water And about an hour and a half of heavy exercise. If I'm really hungry, a fruit for an evening snack (before exercise) Before bed, a glass of green tea. I plan on doing this for four weeks. I know it is rather unreasonable, but it is something I feel the need to do. I also take vitamins B, C, D, E, and Calcium. Please give me input as to how this will change my body, if I will lose too much muscle, how much weight you think I will lose, and overall if it will work. Thanks in advance. more

Voting Question: my sisters fiance has inappropriate pictures of me?

My sister just recently got engaged to her boyfriend of 3 years who is also my boyfriends best friend. A bout a year ago i sent my boyfriend naked pictures of myself to his email address and he forgot that his friend (my sisters fiance) had access to his password from months back. So yesterday my sisters fiance was over installing a new computer and left his labtop on the bed so i decided to be a snoop and go through it. I didn't expect to find anything but in his photo albums i found one of the pictures i had sent my boyfriend. I flipped out, deleted the picture and when i asked him about it he denied that he had saved the picture. He asked me to show him, but i told him i had erased it so he said he didn't know what picture i was talking about. He had the audacity to sit there and lie to my face about it! I called my boyfriend who didn't seem to react.. Although he did say he was flushed with emotions. The Fiance then emailed my sister (who is currently on vacation) and told her that a picture of me ended up on his computer and within minutes she was emailing me suggesting that my boyfriend had some how sent it to him and he didn't know, that my boyfriend downloaded it on his computer (impossible because my boyfriend jut returned from Iraq and has not seen him or used his computer, which is a month old by the way) or that my boyfriend was doing "sketchy things" I have always had my doubts about him because on a trip the four of us toke last year he told me that he was able to hear my boyfriend and i being intimate, but said i sounded sexy He also came onto two of my friends which he denies and my sister does not believe... I did have him sign a contract that he would not release any pictures in the future and that he no longer has access to them.. but what else can i do? I'm confused and i feel violated and it bothers me so much that my sister is easily manipulated by him. Should i have expected more of a reaction from my boyfriend? I honestly don't believe my boyfriend had anything to do with that besides being CARELESS because he is always so protective of me. more

Open Question: How can I get the girl from a different state?

We've all seen the cheap, quick little articles on how to be more attractive to the opposite sex, but those are typically generic guides written in ten minutes, designed for the general public. I've got a much more specific question, with a hell of a lot of complications. If you've seen the title and think you can make any suggestions, I would love to hear 'em. Here we go: I'm a 15 year old guy, about 3 months older than her. I met her about a week ago on vacation. Long story short, we're pretty good friends at this point, and she lives about an hour away from me. We hit it off over vacation, skiing together and just hanging out. We share a good few interests and she's great. She's pretty giggly, smiles a lot, pretty, smart, you get the picture. My question is, if I've begun to like her as more than a friend, what can I do to try and get her to like me back at the distance we have, all without coming on too strongly or seeming to attached? Should the relationship happen (knock, knock), I'm obviously not intending to ask her out through a computer or over the phone - I'd do it face to face; before that can happen though, I want to be fairly sure she feels the same way. *Phew* Thanks for the patience. more

The driver of the tractor trailer angrily swerves just in time to avoid a major collision. As the vehicle veers back into his own lane the drive screams "See what you almost did. You could have gotten us killed". The passenger stretches her leg over to the driver's side and proceeds to put her foot on the accelerator causing the vehicles to race at speeds up to 100mph.

Open Question: should i go see this guy i met online?

I met this nice online ( not on a dating site ) in 2006 and we became friends. We talked on the phone almost every day. He is very nice. He never got angry with me or made me angry. I liked him so much that I could not tell if I was in love with him. Things were going well until he asked to meet me. But since we live in different states, I wanted me to make the move. I did not like that because I was 20 that time and for me he should come see me. I am kind of old school. I got tired of him asking me to go see him so we stopped talking. A few month later he changed his number and I did the same. Since he knew my email address he sent an invitation to create a facebook account and I did not do it. For 3 years I managed to move on and did not try to call him. and there was not a day I did not think I made a bad decision. I feel like I should have traveled to see him when he wanted me to. Well at the beginning of 2010 I sent him an email to wish him a happy new year and how he was doing. he replied to my email and said that that I forgot about him ( which was not true). I gave my number to call one day so we can talk. The same day he called me but i did not pick up the phone because I was nervous. He called about 5 times a day for one week. I finally called him back and we talked for several hours on the phone. He told me that he has a son a woman he was dating but it did not work out. ( he even sent some picture of him and his baby). I know I have feelings for this guy but I do not know if they are real or just the hope that I will see him one day. My friends and I are going to take a trip to his state in the summer for a vacation and I am kind of confused. I do not know if I should go see him or not. Please help. more

Resolved Question: What do you think of this excerpt of my story?

I sat outside by the pool on a warm summer afternoon. You know the type, with the light breeze, no clouds in the sky, the smell of neighbors barbecuing next door. It was perfect, even though I could have been in Hawaii. My beautiful older sister, Tori sat beside me on a brightly colored beach towel, tanning. Her naturally blonde hair was pulled to one side of her face. “Rebecca?” She said, not looking up. “Yes?” I responded. “What are you doing?” “I’m writing in my journal,” “Why?” I sighed impatiently, “Because I like to write.” She looked at me for the first time, “But why do you like to write?” I thought about it for a second, “Because it’s just my way of expressing myself and letting out suppressed emotions. Is that a good enough explanation for you?” “Yeah. I was just wondering,” She turned back towards the sun’s rays. My sister and I were barely a year apart, but we were in the same grade, because I was moved up a grade due to my “vast capability of knowledge” and more big words. If I was supposed to be so smart, why didn’t I understand any part of what the so called “experts” were saying? But anyways, Tori and I had always been close, but then puberty hit, and she got blessed with good looks and a flawless face, and I was not-so-blessed. With a head full of mousy brown hair and boring brown eyes, I was totally unnoticeable. Well, to most people. I watched Tori stand, her bronzed body glistening in the sun. She looked out towards the white picket fence and waved at someone, a flirtatious smile gracing her luscious lips. I was guessing the person was our 23-year-old neighbor, Dean, who had an odd thing for 16-year-old girls apparently. I turned my attention back to the laptop which was balancing on my knees; an e-mail from my best friend, Summer was on the screen. She had sent it all the way from Hawaii, where she and her family, including her hot and so-into-me brother, Blake, were vacationing. I began to scan it, savoring every line. Becca, It’s so warm down here! I wish you could see the amazing view we have from our hotel balcony. The ocean is as clear as glass, and I don’t ever want to leave. Blake told me to say hi. He has mentioned you a few times since we have been here. Is there something I should know about? So what’s new in Texas? Are you having fun sipping iced tea by the pool and watching Dean mow his yard with his shirt off? Hmm, that sight alone is enough for me to hop on the next flight back to the mainland. Well, Mom is badgering me to get off the computer and go to the beach with them. I promise to write more to you later. Love, Summer I smiled at the screen with delight. Blake had been asking about me! I e-mailed Summer right back, telling her it was okay in Texas, Dean was as hot as ever, and I was still perfecting my tea brewing skills, but I was getting there. I clicked the send button, and something else clicked in my head. At first, I was numb, and I remember thinking “This isn’t normal.” Then, the pain came, and I screamed in agony, falling to the floor. The laptop toppled over with me and hit with a loud crash, causing the screen to go ominously black, but I was in too much pain to worry about it. “Rebecca!” Tori gasped my name rushing to me. “I…it…hurts!” I wailed, and she rubbed my shoulders while whipping out her cell phone. “No!” I yelled more forcefully than necessary, “Don’t call anyone!” Tori stared at me in silent shock as my vision grew gray and then went dark in a snap. Behind my closed eyes, a picture began to appear, slowly, like an old television warming up. I could only make out a nice looking room with a seaside view. As the picture became clearer, I realized that it was a bedroom, and there was a person in the bed, a pale person who was gasping for breath. I squinted my eyes, trying to decipher the still blurry picture. The pain in my head had just about disappeared, and with a click, it was gone, and the images suddenly snapped into focus. I gasped in horror as I realized that the gasping figure on the bed was Summer’s mother, Mrs. Landon. She was grasping at her throat with one hand and reaching into the floor for her dropped inhaler with the other. I was frozen in place, unable to move anything. As I helplessly watched, her lips turned blue, and her eyes went wide. At last, she gasped once more then went limp. I expected her to miraculously sit up and walk out, but I knew somewhere deep inside that she was gone, and that this was no dream. The scene seemed to fast forward before my eyes. I looked out the window as the sun made its way across the bright blue Hawaiian sky until it was close to setting. Then I heard voices that seemed to come from a short distance. “Summer, go check on your mother,” This was Summer’s father. “`Kay!” Said Summer cheerfully, the sound of a girl having a blast on vacation. She walked more

Open Question: I need recommendations for a condo in Gulf Shores, AL.?

Im trying to plan a little vacation for me and my two friends. (Though two more may come.) We decided we'd go to Gulf Shores because Ive been there and although there may not be a lot to do we mainly want to spend most of our time eating and hanging on the beach, and its only about an eight hour drive for us. We're looking for a nice condo with a private beach, preferrably three bedrooms, and under $2000 for five-seven days. A recommendation would be greatly appreciated, and maybe your experience there. It doesn't have to be luxurious but we don't really want a dump either. Also some fun activites would be nice too, something nice for three best friends...I don't think deep sea fishing is in the picture and thats all I can think of. Im thinking of maybe one of the Phoenixes but I don't know. Oh, and were only 19-20 years old. I found a great condo but the min age was 25. :( Thanks. :) more

Resolved Question: What should I do? My husband found out that I have been lying to him about another man in my life.?

I was having an affair with a married man for nearly 3 yrs. when my husband and I began dating. I didn't want the affair to end but I was ready for a marriage and family of my own which the married man could not provide. He was already on his third marrriage with 3 sets of kids. He was also nearly 25 yrs. older than me and I did not want to be wife # 4. When I began dating my husband, a man who I had known for a long time, I made the mistake of lying to him from the get-go and told him that this man was just a good friend from work and that we hung around together in a larger group. I also lied to him in order to spend a day with this man just a few weeks after we got together. I had already made these plans with the married guy before my husband entered the picture and I didn't want to brake them. (married guy lives out of town and is very rich) I ended up keeping in close touch with this man as my relationship with my husband developed. I don't know why I did it, but I arranged for them to meet and the three of us had dinner together on a couple of occasions and I even invited this man to our wedding. I never thought he would come but he did and of course his wife came with him. I now have a nice photo in my wedding album with the four of us enjoying the day. The married man is also all over our wedding viedeo. For the last several years we only spoke on the phone and through e-mail, but I foolishly asked my husband if he would be interested in visiting this man at his home and staying in his guest house as part of a vacation. As I mentioned in my question, my husband found photos and date books that I thought I had disposed of and he was able to put the whole sordid thing together. I continued to lie to him when he made the accusations of the affair until he threatened to start asking my friends questions in order to verify the stories I had told him about my history with the married man. I have made so many mistakes and I now find myself fearful that I will lose my husband and my children because of the the way I have treated my marriage. What should I do to help my marriage? more

Resolved Question: How would you react if your husband did this while on vacation with his buddies in the Barbados?

Last week my husband went away on a holiday with 2 of his friends. They went to Barbados for 5 days. He left on Monday Feb 15th the day after Valentines Day. We have been together for 18 years and we have never been on a separate vacation before. This was the first time either of us had gone away without each other. We had always said we were not like other couples and did not like the idea of taking separate vacations but this year he decided he was going to do it. So I said it was okay and did not make a big fuss about it. We have two teenage sons so I knew I was going to be busy while he was away lying on a beach relaxing in 30 degree weather. Monday night I got a short email to say he arrived okay and I replied thanking him for letting us know and said to have fun. The next day I asked my son to reply to his next email and my son in his email jokingly says “And be sure to check out the beach bods for us” My husband emails back saying “The black bods are pretty good but the white bods are kind of old!” . Okay a joke I tell myself. The next day I get up to receive an email from my husband. It reads “ Lunch in Barbados.. wish you were here .. we finally did .. Peter, Bill and Steve you guys should have been here..” I scroll down the email to see the pic that was included and the very first thing I see is my husband sitting at a table leaning back into a woman sitting beside him. He has this big smile on his face and she has her arm wrapped around him so that her hand is dangling not on his waist but sort of towards his crotch. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. I was shocked. As I could only see the part of the pic with the two of them I double clicked on the pic to see the whole thing and saw that there were four people at the table. My husband and this woman I have never seen before on one side of the table and his two buddies on the other side. My husband and a friend across the table were holding a small sign saying "Lunch in Barbados" To me it looked like my husband and this woman were a couple. I re-read the email to see if I missed something and I notice that the email was not addressed to me. It was addressed to 3 of his soccer buddies back home and copied to the other guys that were with him in the picture. It was if I got it by mistake – as if it was never meant to go to me. My email address was not in the header. There was no explanation as to who she was or what they were doing. I emailed him back right away (8 am) saying “Nice picture - who's the woman with her arm around you?”There was no reply all day until I finally got a reply at 5 pm and here’s what he said. “Hi Sweets, You're just like Cathy ... she said, who's Jim's new girlfriend?! She's actually John's new girlfriend not mine!! (but don't tell Cathy!). Don't worry, she's John's driver (Cathy's too!) and she took us on an island tour yesterday ... it was fantastic!! We're off now to catch the sunset. Have had a wonderful time!! See you tomorrow night. I love you guys! Jim” That was the last I heard from him until he arrived home Friday night at 11:30. Here I was 2500 miles away, my husband is on the very first vacation without me in 18 years and the very first photo he decides to send me is a photo of him with some woman wrapped around him. I still can’t believe it. I was expecting a photo of him on a beach waving or a message saying I miss you but not in my wildest dreams did I expect a photo like this. He says I am over reacting. The photo was nothing. He said after all his buddies were across the table and it was just the luck of the draw that he sat beside her. Yes she had lunch with them and yes she spent the whole day with them but according to him nothing happened. She just had her arm around him for the photo. I’m supposed to trust him which I have always done before. Would you get mad if your husband sent you a photo like this. He says he did not think it would bother me – it was just a joke. And he sent this same photo to 3 of his soccer buddies back here. All I can think of is now when his buddies look at the photo they say look there’s the boys on vacation in Barbados without their wives. John and Mark on one side of the table and there’s Jim on the other side with a woman all wrapped around him. Cool. I’m sure his wife is gonna love that photo. He says I’m wrong. That I’m overreacting. He says it just just a photo and I should just relax. He actually said he was hurt that I trusted him so little. Somehow it's now my fault and now I have ruined his vacation. I do not know what to do. I’m hurt and I’m angry and I’m disappointed he would do this to me. Do you think under these circumstances sending this photo to me and his buddies is appropriate?

Resolved Question: Disproportionate weight?

Well I'm 5'9" and weighed 135 in July. I slowly lost weight, and maintained around 115 pounds from November to mid-December. I occasionally would binge and purge, but it was rare. Then my family went on a cruise and I was binging twice a day but only throwing up once a day. So I gained weight, and bounced up to 123 in less than 2 weeks. But I gained all the weight in my lower body. I was looking through pictures from Thanksgiving, and then through pictures from my vacation, and the changes are drastic. After gaining 8 pounds my upper body actually looked thinner, and my lower body looked much bigger. My only conclusion is that throwing up was making my body disproportionate. I haven't seen a picture of myself lately, but I'm back down to 115 and continuing to lose weight. I was throwing up almost daily through January but have stopped all the crazy binges and am back to major restricting. Since I have more fat on my lower body than my upper body, is that where I will see most of my weight loss? Or will my upper body continue to thin? I'm happy with how my upper body looks, but my thighs are huge and out of proportion. I didn't used to be built this way. more

Resolved Question: Which rugged camera would be the best choice?

After about 5 years with my Olympus rugged camera, which had about 7 mega pixels, i've decided to buy a new camera. I am looking for a waterproof camera that can can give good quality pictures and can be handled roughly. A nice video feature would be nice too. after some research, I have narrowed it down to the Panasonic Lumix DMC ts1 (Also known as the ft1) and the Canon d10. which camera do you think is better for a Vacation/Everyday use camera? How is the video and sound quality for the Panasonic Lumix? or, is there any other alternative camera that is good? if you already own one of these cameras, what are your opinions on it? Also, I have heard that panasonic has announced a Lumix ts2. more

Resolved Question: Where, exactly, is the door at the Luxor hotel with Criss Angel's card embedded in it?

Two years ago, Criss Angel did a trick where he threw a deck of cards at a glass door located in the Luxor hotel, and one card "became" embedded inside the door. I am going to Vegas and would like to get a picture of it for my niece who is a fan, but don't really want to walk around the Luxor looking at every door! Since the episode was so long ago, and employees at the hotel come and go, I also don't want to waste time trying to find someone who knows. I did promise my niece that I would get the photo though! Please don;t waste your time or mine telling me what a $%^&@#&* Criss Angel is...the picture is for a little girl so I have no interest in how he behaves or what else he does or doesn't do. I'm going to to drink and gamble and have a much needed vacation! Thanks everyone in advance for any help you can offer up. I leave on February 28th, 2010. more

Resolved Question: my room is like it was turned upside down?

Voting Question: Is it normal to back to an ex? This person walked out twice why would he take her back?

I was seeing a man for 8 months. We were together all the time either doing stuff just the two of us or with our kids. I am attached to his kids after all this time and his kids are attached to me. My kids are also attached to him and his kids. He has a baby with another woman that he had a long relationship with. She walked out on him not once but twice. She told him that she could not help but look at his older 2 children and know that they are the reason she won't have anymore children. He told her after they had the baby that he doesn't want anymore. She left with the baby the day before the baby's first birthday. She then came back and stayed for 2 weeks and left again. She moved back to her hometown with her parents so they could help her. He is raising his 2 other children and then was layed off from work so he moved back to his parents. When she found out I was in the picture she started coming around more and more with all sorts of excuses. She then called him and said that she was getting kicked out of her house. He decided that he has to take care of his baby ( I don't have a problem with that at all) but they are going to rent a house together and he hasn't spoken to me since. I am heart broken. We were just planning a summer vacation and talking about doing a lot of things that couples do and now I am no longer in the picture with no explanation nothing. Why would someone go back to a person that left twice and hurt his children and him so bad? He always told me that she was unstable....is this going to work for him?When he told me that she was kicked out of her house he said they were going to rent a place and that he was happy to have his baby in his life but not happy about her. Why can't he just say they are back together instead of denying it?? And when he told me we were in public at his sons wrestling practice with all the kids there and his daughter sitting on my lap!! more

Resolved Question: What kind of laptop should I get?

I wanted to get an opinon on this. I would ask an expert but most of the time they want to sell you crap you dont need for commission. I use my current computer to surf, email, games, facebook. I store all my pictures on it too. I create Mircrosoft word documents too. The only time I will actually take it somewhere is on vacation. Otherwise size doesnt matter. I will probably want to watch dvds on it too. I will have a printer hooked up to it and sometimes my digital camera to download pics. Mouse too. I would appreciate any help. Thanks. Also, my budget is probably 800-1200. Thanks again. more
