ok.. well I Really like this girl, and i know that she liked me about 2-3weeks ago, but im not so sure if she still does anymore... im dont know what i've done, but i really wanna be with her. She'll look at me every once in a while at school, but she wont wave and say hi like she used to. And i dont wave or saying hi either. Also, to top it off i havent talked to her in about a week AND i've tried to phone like 3 times and she never answered. But thats not really a problem b/c i overheard one of her friends talking to someone saying ';oh,susan never answers her phone.. u phone her';. I THINK that she may still be interested in me, and i really really wanna be with her (i've just had soooo much going on this week i cant even describe it all in this question) i just dont know what to do, or say and i dont know if i can ask her out again, cause well i dunno its hard.. cause we dated before, in the summer but only for about a month and a half, and broke up b/c she wasnt allowed datingOkay.. i've really screwed up bad, i need some advice?
take it slowly. first learn to be her friend. Girls are shy sometimes so u be then bigger person and go up to say hi. talk about something she is instered in and she will talk back. when time is ready then u make ur move. you are still young take ur time. u can never push things like this. Best of LuckOkay.. i've really screwed up bad, i need some advice?
She Likes You
so you like her and you think she likes you?? why are you asking us questions and not her?!!!
time is running out go now and pick up the phone!!! :)
You said you guys broke up before because she wasn't allowed to date. Do you know if she's allowed to date now? If not, maybe she still likes you but is hanging back because she's not allowed to date. Or maybe her parents told her not to hang around with you. To tell you the truth, there could be a million reasons why she isn't talking to you. The only way to find out for sure what's going on is to talk to her. When you see her at school, walk up to her and talk to her. You could just say that you haven't talked to her lately and wonder how she's doing, and then ask if there's some reason why she hasn't been very friendly to you lately. Just make sure you say everything nicely (maybe write down stuff earlier that you want to say and practice saying it before you see her). Good luck!
okay well maby you should wave hi to her and try to hint to her that you still like her.
ok mr.cool guy, here it is, something is going on here, she either does not like you anymore and has her eye on someone else, or you have upset her and she is pissed off with you. I suggest you write a note and either give it to her or put it through her letterbox, dont say too much on it other than you both need to talk, tell her a time on the note that you will call for a chat. If she does not respond i am afraid you just need to move on, dont make excuses for her ie; perhaps she didnt get the note or maybe she didnt answer the phone cos she was out, any normal polite person would ring back or text out of courtesy. Plenty more fish and all that.Wish you luck.........
If she wants to be with you, she will come to you. You have made all the advances in letting her know you are interested
i don't think that it is really sweating over, find someonelse
I had that happen to me before and here's exactly what I did to fix that problem...You ready for this??? I grabbed the microphone to the school's PA system and I announced her name (AND mine) and told her that I really cared about her and I want to start over with a brand new friendship.
Now young man, you think about it before you try that one because that was a long time ago where my punishment was only two days suspension from school. Today you'd probably get arrested....
Good luck Sport...
Please stop playing all these mind games with yourself and talk with her!!!
women like men who communicate, in fact, that's one of their biggest complaints about us guys.
TALK TO HER!!!!
I say go for it man. the worst case is she says no, your not gonna loose your life over her. right???
believe me we've all been in that situation. luckily I had the courage to just ask her out and we've been together for a year. so as I said before, go for it and good luck man
You need to see her maybe in school and communicate.
You can't read her mind and if she won't answer her phone, then you need to go to her and ask whazzzzzzzzzz up.
Rev. TomCat
if you really like this person.. you have to take a few steps.. from your description of events.. you are waiting for her to respond to you.. and she probably is doing the same... buy her a bunch of flowers.. this will break the ice.. hand her the flowers. and tell her what is in your heart.. then wait about two or three days .. she may respond the way you want.. and again she might not.. but by buying her some flowers.. about 12 dollars.. you save yourself a lot of wondering why.. and if it does not go your way.. you know that she is not for you. and then move on and find someone else.. but dont be pushy that is demamding she act the way you are thinking she should act.. but let the flowers be the last .. dont get in the habit of buying gifts.. wait until you are married.. that way you wont have to worry if she loved you or the gifts.. and felt obligated.. thats all i can say..
well is she allowed to date now???
maybe she's still not allowed to date and that is why she is not answering your calls. ?
i think you should just say HI to her when you see her and try to start a conversation and stuff. Then you might get more of an idea as to what's going on and if she's into you or not.
best of luck to you! :)
3 words ask her out
well if she isn't allowed just leave her alone and get a goods night sleep
I think maybe she wants to play hard to get to see if you are going to work for her love or just expect her to give it to you. Us girls are very difficult, but its obvious she likes you. Good luck
I was in the same predicament as of last week. But now were going out and were together as a couple. I found that although its more risky and hurts more than over the phone, the upfront approach works amazingly well. The best thing to do is to get her to the side when you have alot of time to talk and tell her about the things that make you attracted to her. this works well even on women you've already dated. Women also love when men are caring, thoughtful, and chivalrous. My suggestion is to ask her for a second chance, BUT NEVER SAY YOU CAN CHANGE, this is a complete and flat out NO. This makes it seem as though you are incredibly desperate. So good luck.
sounds like ya need to talk try texting her
I don't think you screwed up.
If she doesn't answer her phone... maybe there's something really depressing going on in her life.
Try talking to one of her friends... if you can't talk to her. Figure out what's wrong. Then use your comforting skills... if you comfort her, she'll probably trust you. And when she does, DON'T break that trust!
well in my point of view because im a girl, you should talk to here face to face and ask her whats up and tell her how you feel. if you get shot down its okay dont worry about it you tried and thats a good thing. then girls will see you a different way instead of a scardey cat. get the courage to do it if you really and truly want to be with her:] and another tip...girls love it when you do something absolutley sweet. good luck!
Ask her out, she might like it.
Hope for the best!!!
what makes u think that if shes not allowed to date she will date NOW?? also maube she thinks youre not interested in HER? suprise with something special like dinner or a picnic or something to show her how much you like her....ur a really big drama queen btw
Ask her out. She likes you, but is afraid you don't like her, and that she will appear desperate or pushy.
Keep it chilled, back away a little, but don't be offhand with her. Try and concentrate on having your own fun. If she likes you she will make it clear once you have backed off a bit. Us girls are funny like that.
Good luck
SIMPLE - JUST GO UP TO HER AND TELL HER - HEY I LIKE YOU - DO YOU LIKE ME - WOULD YOU LIKE TO GO OUT AGAIN - problem today - everyone make everything a bigger problem than it is - SHE CAN ONLY SAY ONE OF TWO THINGS - YES - NO - i bet you there's a bunch of nice girls in your school you could go out with if she say no - that you will probably be happy with if she said no
Well i think YOU should say ';hi';, YOU should wave to her and YOU should let her know your interested in her. Hang out with her, converse with her and always keep up to date. Talk to her on instant messenger and don't stop phoning. Good luck buddy
You might not like this answer but, I really think the best way to get close to a girl is to become freinds first. And then if she likes you, you will soon know. It will really give both of you a chance to see if you click. And if she is not interested in dating you, you will atleast have another freind. Life is to short to put a lot of effort in to something that is not meant to be. Good luck and may you find happiness.
Dump her! There will be someone far nicer who will treat you with a bit of respect!
i think you answered your own question with your last line... if shes not allowed to date, how do you expect to date her? id say quit bein a wuss and talk to her. get to be friends with her because friends are not outlawed, are they? and the best relationships grow from friendships :D at least in my experience.
Go take your face for the call of nature!!!!

My 6 day old son has bad wind (colic)! Any advice?
He is bottle feed and just seems to guzzle his milk down. I burp him in between the feed and again after. I'm also trying to keep him upright for at least a 1/2 hour after each feed. But around mid afternoon he seems to be in so much pain and it takes me so long to burp him... well even if I can manage a burp, that's another problem he just doesn't seem to burp easily.
I just want any tips on how you all managed with a baby with colic?
Thanks so much in advance!My 6 day old son has bad wind (colic)! Any advice?
when i was little i had colic and the only way to burp me was my mom put me on her forearm her hand holding my chin and the rest of her arm so that it was between my lags and burped me that way. she also lay ed me on my tummy over her knees and that worked also.
My son was colic and i got drops to put in his formula to help himMy 6 day old son has bad wind (colic)! Any advice?
My Daughter who is now 10 wks old suffered with Colic got to the stage where i called an Ambulance once cause i didnt know what was wrong with her..she screamed and screamed and screamed for 4 hrs straight..Doc said it was Colic %26amp; pescribed colic drops (Dentinox) you can buy these from chemist also..they really did work well..hopefully no more colic episodes!
Gd luck x
Try a different bottle, try a different formula, buy him a baby wedge for his bed, try gripe water. GOOD LUCK
Buy some peppermint oil, put water in a saucepan, boil the water, add a couple of drops of the peppermint oil, remove pan from stove, allow water to cool to room temperature, pour peppermint water into a small baby bottle, feed to baby. Soon, baby will burp a lot and then go to sleep. This is an old fashioned remedy but it works every time.
don't pat him on the back sit him up to burp and rub his back. That is a really big deal also switch his bottles. I use born free they work great. and put him to bed with a pacifier, If he has colic that young he is high risk sids. No bumper pads, or blankets and have him sleep on his back.
Gripe water, Mylicon drops, or chamomile tea.
Good Luck =)
if he is only 6 days old i recommend that you take him to the doctor or hospital, that would be the wisest thing to do.
I would suggest getting some Mylacon drops, they sell them at Target and any other store. Gripe water helps out a lot too and its totally natural. These two things help with gassy and colicky babies. I have a five month old little girl and she went through the same thing. These drops really helped her. Also something else that helps a lot is gassing your baby. Lay the baby on his back on a flat surface, such as a floor. Grab baby by his ankles and press his knees into his stomach. This will make his pass gas and he will feel a lot better. Keep trying different ways of this until you find something that works the best. But these two things worked like a charm for me.

Need your advice....its probably a bad question but i am curious. I have developed a crush but I am married.?
ive been married for over twelve years, and there is nothing wrong. I even have a wonderful son. life is great! but this woman has my mind dazzled. I have not done anything and I have not attempted, but I do see her and we have great conversations and she knows Im married. Im not after anything, but she has me going crazeeeeee...!Need your advice....its probably a bad question but i am curious. I have developed a crush but I am married.?
Get a grip! Grass is not always greener on the other side, all that glitters isn't gold. Don't let someone else steal your interests. It sounds like you need to end communication with this person unless you are willing to jeaporadize your relationships with your wife and son. You are in dangerous territory, and you have let this go further than it should.Need your advice....its probably a bad question but i am curious. I have developed a crush but I am married.?
I understand where you are coming from. Be very careful in what you do say to this person, because this can lead to big trouble. Crushes will happen occasionally, but remember they are but for a moment and to act upon them would be devastating to your family, and to yourself. I am assuming you work with this person. Try not to let the conversations linger...keep it light and to business.makeup school

Is Soy formula good or bad? I need help & advice!?
i already tried to post this once and it said it did but it wasnt posted anywhere so here goes a 2nd try
I am open to all types of criticism except the breastfeeding is best one. My son might or might not have a slight allergy to milk (he threw up blood on a milk based formula- however now they believe that was due to the severe case of Acid Reflux that he has, not any intolerance to milk). We had put him back on Soy from Alimentum, and he is doing really well with it...barely spitting up. However, the doctor said that many people do not like putting babies on Soy formula anymore and that she wants him to try Nutramigin first (he still spits up too much on the alimentum even though we are thickening his formula with rice cereal for the reflux) and then maybe in 6 months try a milk based to see how he does. Because of the reflux he has been through so many formulas and I think he tolerates the soy the best, however she is reluctant to it.
I was wondering what people have seen as negatives and positives of soy formula and their experiences with the Soy, Nutramigin or Alimentum? Also, in your opinion, what do you think I should do? I figured getting people's opinions on Soy would be a good method of research (as well as my own research on credible sources of the pros and cons of soy, as i do not know much about Soy in the first place).
As of right now, he is currently taking anywhere from 3 to 4 ounces of Soy formula with 2 tablespoons of rice cereal in a 4 ounce bottle. No that is not too much cereal, it is just enough to keep it down- like i said, the reflux is severe.
And please, no breastfeeding is best comments, he was breastfed for 3 weeks until I had to start taking medicine and they were under the impression he had a milk allergy to the dairy i was eating, again turned out to be the reflux.
Is Soy formula good or bad? I need help %26amp; advice!?
By accident I opened the free sample of Soy formula so I feed it to her for the first week. Stopped BF at 3 weeks and tried formula. She was so fussy and had horrible smelly gas and constipated. I called the doc and she said to switch her to milk based formula. I tried Enfamil Lipil. It made the situation better. I then switched to Enfamil Gentlease. Things have been great with the Enfamil Gentlease. The dr. said she usually tells parents to give the baby soy based formula when the baby is sick with diarrhea because the soy will usually firm up the bowel movements. Also she said to stick with the same formula for a week before trying something different; give the baby time to adjust.
I have now switched to the generic Sams Choice that is the same as Enfamil Gentlease. It is all regulated by the FDA. She loves it!!!
Is Soy formula good or bad? I need help %26amp; advice!?
The reason why doctors are reluctant to stay with soy is because the proteins to not breakdown as easily. Basically the protein/iron intake is not a good as other formulas. This is why it is used as a last resort.
I went through this with my son. We tried every single formula out there and the only one that would work was the soy. He is growing normally and surpassing his twin sister's weight.
My son had all kinds of formulas. Extremely fussy and had diarrhea with regular formula. He was tried on Lactose-free, did better, but still very fussy. Tried Alimentum, He would not drink it. Switched to Soy formula, Not as fussy , but got very constipated. Now is on Nutrimigen, doing great, took some time for him to get used to the taste, but doing very well. I say try as many as you need to, until you find the right one.
I have used both soy and Nutramigen for my kids (in addition to breastfeeding them exclusively for the first 6-8 mos) and for my youngest daughter who was allergic to both soy and dairy - Nutramigen was a Godsend! Many in the family have used it after problems with other formulas and my nephews who had reflux issues.
I would give it a try - it can't hurt! Good Luck!
i was only able to breastfeed for about 4 weeks because i have a hard time keeping my milk supply and i tried many different brands and types of formulas with my son but they all had a bad reactions with him one way or another so i tried soy formula and it is the only thing he was able to handle ok. i dont know much about the pros and cons but my baby had to get fed and thats the only formula that worked for him so thats what i give him!
Not a whole lot of difference between Nutramigin %26amp; Alimentum... they are both equally for babies with allergies or intolerence. Easier on babies fussy tummies...
Soy formula has just as much nutrients as any other formula - whatever you have them on, they will be getting what they need. Soy wouldnt be on the market if it was unfit for babies. As long as he is gaining the correct amount of weight and not vomiting large amounts also pooping/ peeing correct amounts.. he'll be fine.
my daughter was on Alimentum for about a year... then we switched her into the regular formula. she grew out of whatever she had wrong at the beginning.
Do whatever works. Soy is perfectly fine. But listen to your Dr. ... if you are unsure, get a 2nd opinion from another dr. or pediatrition. or nurse.... more info always helps.
good luck.
I used milk-based formula with my first 2 babies and they were fussy and gassy - a lot. My third son started out the same way, so I decided to try soy. He is now 10 1/2 months and has been the most contented of all my babies! I am so glad I chose soy.
In an ideal world, it works to line up all the choices and make sweeping judgments about what is 'best', but in real life, what is best for every baby is different. If your baby growing and happy, then the choice you have made is the best one. . . for him. Don't be afraid to try other options like Nutramigin, if you want to. Keep making informed choices, but at the end of the day, be confident in the choice you've made for your baby and just enjoy him! Good luck!
I hope you are aware that you can relactate. If you choose not to that's fine. But many women are unaware of how easy it is for some. If you need help assessing medication safety:

I used milk-based formula with my first 2 babies and they were fussy and gassy - a lot. My third son started out the same way, so I decided to try soy. He is now 10 1/2 months and has been the most contented of all my babies! I am so glad I chose soy.
In an ideal world, it works to line up all the choices and make sweeping judgments about what is 'best', but in real life, what is best for every baby is different. If your baby growing and happy, then the choice you have made is the best one. . . for him. Don't be afraid to try other options like Nutramigin, if you want to. Keep making informed choices, but at the end of the day, be confident in the choice you've made for your baby and just enjoy him! Good luck!
I hope you are aware that you can relactate. If you choose not to that's fine. But many women are unaware of how easy it is for some. If you need help assessing medication safety:

Desperate for help with a bad situation...ANY relevant advice is needed!?
I have a problem...I work full time and go to college full time (the classes are on the internet, yes it's a real college). I can't afford to not work full time. But I also can't afford to take classes just part time, because my student aid is reduced so drastically if I don't maintain ';full time student'; status that it becomes too expensive for me. I don't really WANT to takeclasses just part time, because I want my degree as soon as possible. I hate the job I have now and don't want to spend any more time in it than I have to.
I am having a LOT of trouble doing work and school full time. Work is suffering from me being tired and stressed from late nights studying every day, and my schoolwork is suffering because I am at work from 9 to 5 every day and come home tired. (My job involves very irate/emotionally unstable people, plus a large workload on top of that).
I am almost certain that, in this economy and in my town's TERRIBLE job market (we made national headlines, it's so bad) that I would not be able to find a comparable job for the wage I earn now. I would probably have to take a job that pays $3+ less per hour, which I can't afford to do.
So I can't afford to work part time, I can't afford to go to school part time, and my sanity cannot afford to continue at this pace for much longer. I am stressed and weepy and tired and not happy.
I live reasonably and frugally and don't have excessive debt.
Someone, please help before I lose it.
I don't know what to do.
Thank you so much for reading this, I know it is annoying to listen to people whine but I don't know what else to do...Desperate for help with a bad situation...ANY relevant advice is needed!?
Take a break. If you can, take some time off from work and do nothing. Surround yourself with greens and blues. They are relaxing colors. Also, take a 20 minute power nap in the afternoon. It will help keep you refreshed.Desperate for help with a bad situation...ANY relevant advice is needed!?
I'm not sure where you live, but here in Canada we have Employment Insurance for people who goto school and the govn't gives them money each month so that they can get a better education.
Try moving to canada if you don't live here already
any way to move in with someone to help save on bills till you are done with school?

Bad wipeout at practice, need advice?
I tried this move at gymnastic and i lost control and my coach didn't have time to help me so i slammed onto the gorund i was ignoring the pain because that is what you do, you just have to. But now my back realy hurts, should i be concerned or should i just go to training today and ignore and do everything i normally do. i can tough through but will it make it worse
anyhoo i am a tought cookie i will tough through, but just wondering if i should be extra carefull or notBad wipeout at practice, need advice?
For sure the doctor. IF you are not having problems with walking or balance, then make an appointment to be seen. If the pain is intense, and you are having trouble with the above, go to the ER. Your body is toned and fit, you have introduced some trauma, perhaps a strain or sprain of the muscles. IF you continue with the hard moves, you may damage your career. I suggest you speak to the coach and let them know what hurts and where,and see what they say. In the mean time, make sure your parents know,use ice and heat, and, with your parents permission, some Advil . WARM UP before you work out, this is especially important with any injury. Don't do more than your body is willing to do.Bad wipeout at practice, need advice?

Bad Insurance Surprise: I NEED ADVICE?
So, here's the situation.
My vehicle is a 2001 toyota tacoma prerunner v6 pickup.
I am 20 years old and I am currently on my family's insurance plan. Though my primary vehicle is my truck, someone at the company helped us work it out, so that according to the books, my primary mode of transport would be an old dodge stratus car.
I was paying a pretty low rate for a while, and then I got in an accident (in the truck) that realistically wasn't my fault, but from an insurance point of view it was... so my insurance rate jumped up to 200 something and then it fell back down to 187 monthly after completing a good driver course. This was a great rate for me because I am a full time college student who doesn't have a fat paycheck.
Recently the stratus that the insurance company thought I was driving became non-operable, so they now know that my primary vehicle is my tacoma. The bad thing is, now my monthly rate skyrocketed to over 360 dollars... which is more than half of my paycheck.
This is a bad situation for me, and I would love any advice that you can give. Can I expect to find a lower rate if I shop around at other agencies, or am I S.O.L.?Bad Insurance Surprise: I NEED ADVICE?
Beware of ';teaser'; rates. Often, some companies will tease you with a low rate and then raise them dramatically later. I prefer to stay with the companies who have a physical presence in my immediate area. You cannot go wrong with Biggies such as: Allstate, State Farm or American FamilyBad Insurance Surprise: I NEED ADVICE?
You may be able to find a cheaper rate, yet you have to be careful on the low grade companies that are out there.
Your situation is that your a 20 year old male, with an 'at fault' accident on your record. Your rate is going to be higher than the 25-30 year old anywhere you go.
It costs money to drive. Sometimes, a lot of money. You are over 18 and can shop around for a better rate.

Bad credit gal seeking some advice?
I have horrible credit. I went through college thinking that I could pay it all back later and let it pile up. Now I'm trying to slowly climb out. I've tried to figure out a budget, but it just never works.
I have maxed out cards mostly in collections. I have a bank account and a savings account. I try to keep a good record of my account and have been doing okay with it.
I guess my question is, I know I have a serious shopping problems, but I also want to resolve my credit problems because I've realized you need good credit for the good jobs; so is there a website I could go to that has a budget planner or should I call a financial adviser to give me a budget or is there someone out there with a trick.
Because not only do I eventually move from my entry level job in the near future, I want to be able to have credit cards with more than $300 limits, I also need a car and will have to move in 5 months.
Any suggestions are welcome and needed.Bad credit gal seeking some advice?
good credit and spending habits is something taught by parents i believe. no financial advisor will be able to help you unless you stick by the budget to the cent. it will not be fun, as its like being on a diet. as for the collections, if they are small, pay them off when you can. generally they will stick around on your credit report for about 7 years. if the collection is sold to another company, it can stick around for another 7 years. if they are large collections, try calling the agencies to see if they will settle for less. often times the agencies will cut their losses for lets say; half of what you owe. get a copy of your credit report. it will show all collections against you, even some you may not know about. good credit takes a long time to build. steady payments and having low balances is the only way to get it higher.

I would recommend 2 things: 1) a very low cost (possibly free) credit repair program to try to have the negative items removed. 2) I would add a tradeline program to boost your score quickly (60 days or quite possibly less). A friend in California used this and got a 120 point bump from 560 to 680. My friend in California went through www.totaldebtsolutionsllc.com and called their toll free# or filled out the free evaluation form to get the ball rolling. Good luck
To get out of debt, and stay out, you need to cut up all the cards except maybe 1 at the most NOW. If you keep one, freeze it in a block of ice. Read Dave Ramsey's ';Total Money Makeover';. If you go to http://www.frugalvillage.com/forums there's a guy with the user name Greebo that is awesome at looking at your debts and putting out a repayment plan for you.
Wow, you show great awareness of a set of related problems. It's time to get long-term help from a financial advisor. The benefit of an advisor vs. a web site is that you can use the relationship to understand the basis of sound decisions on money and develop some coping mechanisms that will let you get to a healthy financial state.
In the meantime, start thinking about how to live within your means as a lifelong practice. Otherwise, you are taking money away from your future self. It is not a great bet to think that you can live on less in the future than you live on now -- when you use credit in a significant way, you are making that bet.

Bad bedwetting accident! Need cleaning advice.?
My sons' friend slept over last night. My family has known for years that he is a bedwetter. Not a problem. We always have protective bedding for him. Recently we bought a 3 piece living room set. The kids are attracted to the new furniture because it has that new kind of memory foam in the cushions and it's super comfortable. It's advertised on TV for regular beds but it's made into living room furniture as well. I took the waterproof mat on the couch and placed extra blankets on the side for more protection. Our guest had a grin on his face and said that it still felt comfortable. Some time during the night he got up and walked over to an UN protected piece of furniture and slept there instead and peed on it. He left right away in the morning. My son discovered it and the whole family is upset over it. My son wants to fight him but I won't let that happen. They go to different schools so I keep them away from each other,
I called his mom and told him everything. He peed on her furniture before too. She told me that she used a carpet cleaner for own furniture when this happened. She has the more traditional type of cushions though. Would this work on memory foam? Would it get damaged permanently if it gets really wet from that? Can I get the cushions dry cleaned instead? What's the best way to clean this? Anybody know? Bad bedwetting accident! Need cleaning advice.?
I suggest calling the furniture store where you purchased the sofa. They will tell you what to do.Bad bedwetting accident! Need cleaning advice.?
A product called Nature's Miracle for carpet stains works! Basically drench the area with Nature's Miracle and then walked on a few dry towels over the area to sop some of the liquid up. After a day of drying, the odor and stain will be completely gone, with no remnants of odor. You can pick it up at PetsMart. It's about $30 for 1.5 gallon container.
i highly doubt water is going to damage memory foam. could it be any more damaged at this point?
His worthless mother should reimburse you if it cant be cleaned satisfactorily.
stanley steamer are specialists at situations at this call up and schedule an appointment.
borax works wonders.
Call a cleaning lady, and tell ur sons freind mom to put a litter box in his room
Call either the store or the actual manufacturer. That way you know exactly what to do. As everyone says, better safe than sorry. Would suck to ruin your new furniture trying to save a few bucks.
After you find out what to do, call her and tell her. She can't really argue if you're only going by what the makers of it told you.
He should know better. And if he can't help it, his mother should take the necessary precautions so he doesn't do to others what he has done to her own house...you know, make him wear those underpants at night and such. If my kid was 13 and still pissing the bed, I wouldn't stop dragging him to doctors until we got it fixed. Just saying though, lol.
i must say, i am shocked to read that you find the kids responsible and are banning him from the house!! even though he is 13 it is highly unlikely that he moved to another piece of furniture on purpose to pee on it and ruin it! You ought to be ashamed of yourself for blaming someone. It happens, no matter what the age. If your grandma came over and peed on your couch becuase she wasn't wearing depends, would you ban her from the house too? if your husband had a poker game and a buddy drank too much and peed on your couch in his sleep, would he be banished?
just call a good carpet/upholstry cleaner and get over it!
wow, you are really missing the point in your reply back to me. bedwetting is a medical problem. yes, he did move at night, but you surely sound like a very rude and uptight person. it is really sad to think that you would loose such a close friendship over an accident. i hope you are not that rigid with your own kids too!
I agree amber. This is kind of sad. he was probably half asleep and uncomfortable didn't even realize he was moving to another piece of furniture. If i were you i would call the manufacturer and get the low down on how to clean it.
I'm a bit of an OCD but I'm much kinder and have patience with children. I wouldn't treat a child this way.

Has any1else had ';bad petrol';? i just had to have new oxygen sensor, any advice on compensation issues?
quentin wilson said last night on channel 5 news that under the sale of goods act you could indeed sue the supplier (i.e. tesco /sainsbury etc) you need to contact the petrol station first and ask that they foot the bill for any repairs that will be needed because of the bad fuel if they refuse take them to a small claims court ...www.which.co.uk or www.channel5news.com may have additional informationHas any1else had ';bad petrol';? i just had to have new oxygen sensor, any advice on compensation issues?
Yes, my car cut out yesterday after I filled up at Tesco on Weds. It was pretty scary, so I didn't use it today. I rang the RAC and they told me that they have no advice except they're 'monitoring the situation'. Very helpful. Tesco's response was 'It's in other supermarkets too,' again very helpful. The results of the tests by Trading Standards should be out tomorrow. I suppose we won't know about compensation until they're sure of where the contamination is from.Has any1else had ';bad petrol';? i just had to have new oxygen sensor, any advice on compensation issues?
I've got diesel, from what I understand it is just Tesco and Morrisons that have a problem ( I always said super power supermarkets are bad for people!) Tesco have a helpline, you might have a problem proving liability in a compensation case, make sure you have a receipt for the fuel and wait for a possible class action

I've got diesel, from what I understand it is just Tesco and Morrisons that have a problem ( I always said super power supermarkets are bad for people!) Tesco have a helpline, you might have a problem proving liability in a compensation case, make sure you have a receipt for the fuel and wait for a possible class action
I am 35 and my hair is thinning out pretty bad. does anyone have any advice?
One of my friends started losing hair a little while ago. then she bought this Mane 'n Tail shampoo and conditioner now her hair is full again.
or you can just let it thin. There's nothing wrong with it, I think it can be attractive. If it reaches the point when you're really self conscious about it you can shave it all off. I think that is extremely good-looking on guys your age.I am 35 and my hair is thinning out pretty bad. does anyone have any advice?
See a doctor with your complaint and have your thyroid checked.
Are you under a lot of stress? If so, address this issue with him, also.
Good luck.I am 35 and my hair is thinning out pretty bad. does anyone have any advice?
its mainly genetic.[isnt everything]
buy a cap.

your hair or lack of it will no longer be the point of interest.
If none of this advice works heres a cheap solution
WIGS they can be fun and dont have to be expensive

I had some bald spots for a few months and my doctor attributed it to stress and lack of sleep. I was diagnosed with Accute Anxiety and Stress Syndrome (it's funny now that for 8 months I had A.-A.S.S.). I also switched hairdressers and got a conditioning treatment every 5 weeks. My spots filled in and now my hair is thicker. I use Tresemme shampoo and conditioner. Good luck.
Theres a shampoo and conditioner called Nioxin. Tingles on your scalp. For hairloss. A little expensive but it works and its a huge bottle.
rogaine, or go see a doctor. how is your eating habits? nutrition plays a big part.
U need to eat healthier!
Your hair's health is a overall mirror of your general health.
Make sure you especially get the B-vitamins (Brewers Yeast supplements), vitamin A (darkgreen and orange vegetables), vitamin E (natural oils), Zinc (darkgreen vegetables), Magnesium (darkgreens) and Iron (spinach!)
Eat whole-wheat bread instead and yoghurt or buttermilk too (essential for your intestinal flora and thus hair's health!)
Dear Thinning,
Keeping the hair and scalp clean is essential. Especially if you have oily skin, perspire a lot, or wear hats regularly. And unless it is a hardhat stop wearing them as they cut off circulation to the smallest capillary flow area of the body. Baseball and other tight hats are the worst. Get yourself a frequent scalp massage or learn to do your own. Combing the hair back or in a pony tail is also pulling the hair out. Change direction or hairstyle entirely for a while. Shorten long hair to slow and ease pull on hair. Hope you found this helpful and best wishes.
hi,
Hair thinning could be because of a lot of reason's. It could be post pregnancy, or hormonal change, or reaching menopause, or if you are recovering from an illness, excessive dieting etc.. In your case first find out the reason why your hair is thinning, once your know the reason you could cure your hair fall problems. In the mean time if you would like their is this site
http://www.cure-for.info
This site gives various treatments and recipe's for the cure of hair loss problems in the most natural ways. I like them because they are natural and have no side-effects. They help, if done regularly.

I hate to tell you, but there is really NO 100% proven way to make your hair thicker using product.
People who are telling you to eat healthier are full of it too. Diet really has NOTHING to do with your hair thinning. It is mostly genetics, and product or diet cannot combat that.
Try a different hairstyle, one that has more curls, or a volumizing shampoo, so at least you can give the *illusion* of thicker hair.

Is this one of the worst places to get financial advice?
I've seen some good advice but wow there's alot of BAD advice dished out here that I hope people don't listen to.Is this one of the worst places to get financial advice?
Not all people look for financial advice here, others look just for information or ideas or a piece of information that will guide them to find out more about a certain thing that they were interested in but did not know where to start.
I personally will not take advice from anyone here but I will certainly be open to opinions or sugestions and information or experiences that others had that will help me to study more or find out more about a product or service.
Everyone must be careful with any type of information put out there, even if it comes out from the experts, they should consider all the options and decide what is best for their situation.Is this one of the worst places to get financial advice?
Well, anyone that relies on this for serious advice can't be too smart in the first place.
Same thing as there being good advisors and bad advisors out in the public. Caveat emptor! Take things with a grain of salt, research yourself and then make a decision. That is the best advice I could give.
Depends on the person who asks and what they ask.
Probably one of the worst but good for starting points. Great place to start weeding the bull from the...well, that stuff. People wanting a quick fix to problems are going to be disappointed and people wanting excellent advice for free are also going to be disappointed. Nothing short circuits the hard work of gathering data, analyzing it and applying the results to achieve personal goals. Unless, of course, you want to p(r)ay for a financial advisor!
The worst advice is generally from anyone who will earn a commission from what they are trying to sell you, like fred peters.

Can a firm give a bad reference for a person who had resigned advice of union rep without stain on record.?
The person resigned, on advice of union rep that he would be dismissed if the matter was pursued. This interview and others took place while he was sick with depression (Certified) It later transpired that he lost a job offer after training due to a reference fron the previous firm saying he left prior to discipline. He in fact left due to health reasons and was told by the union rep that there would be no mention on his employment record if he did so.Can a firm give a bad reference for a person who had resigned advice of union rep without stain on record.?
A firm can decline to give someone a reference but they are not allowed to give them a bad one as this jeopardises their ability to find future employment. I would take it up with the Union again or threaten to sue.Can a firm give a bad reference for a person who had resigned advice of union rep without stain on record.?
I grew up in a Union town, and one thing that I heard way too many times was that the Union Rep was chosen because they were usually the most inept person in the place and this got them heck out of the way so real work could get done.
As far as i understood it, in the uk, its against the law to give a bad reference, they can refuse to give one but are not allowed to give a bad one.
No they can't give a bad review, they can refuse to give one which is the same thing in the eyes of a future employer.. but what you have described isn't really bad.. you admitted yourself he jumped before he was pushed.
Technially speaking no one is allowed to give you a bad reference in a legal sense because it falls under anti-blacklisting laws. However a person can decline to say anything about you other than that you have worked for them, which is the same thing as getting a bad reference.
It may be too late, he may also sue someone, but he should go back to the firm that gave him the bum rep with his medical reports and ask them to write him another one. What a sad story.
it would depend on the exact wording of the reference they gave it might be possible he can sue for slander but it is unlikely they would win
im sure you can sue if you are misrepresented in a referance seek legal advice (C.A.B)

I feel really really bad, need some good advice.?
Two days ago, I started a fight with my husband because he didn't have money like my friends' husband to take me on holiday or buy me nice staff.
Although he is really calm but he punched on my head, I got frustrated and rang the police.
I just wanted to scare him.
but the police arrested him and took him away, I started to cry, they treated him like a criminal.
later that day he came back home, but didn't speak a world.
the next day I went to work, but 2 hours later I just felt really bad. and told my office that I had headache and I need to go home.
When I got home, I heard my husband talking to a Solicitor and arranging for an appointment to see them.
I just started to cry and said I didn't want that to happen. He said although he loves me but he doesn't like arguments and he doesn't want to end up to the jail.
but after all we deceided to work things out. But i feel really bad, our reputation has been damaged, neighbours and all this staff, and now he has acriminal recourdI feel really really bad, need some good advice.?
All i have to say is money is not everything, yes it helps so we can get the things we need and to pay bills with, have you ever tried saving some by just putting some odd change away, it may take a while but i put most of my small change away, as pennies turn into pounds, and i just have my pension each week, which is not all that much, and have not had a holiday for years so many i can't remember the last time i went away. And now you have ruined your reputation and your husband now has a criminal record,over something that could have been avoided, and all because your friend can have a holiday and you can't right now.I feel really really bad, need some good advice.?
then forget that holiday of yours you were thinking of taking and sit down and talk to him to prove that you really feel bad and that you are sorry! and usually that would make him apologise for punching you in the head. This might make him reconsider everything about solicitors too.
Also tell him that you can go on that holiday when u can really have the time / afford it! ( actually dont mention that on the same day as you are apologizing do it the next do or something )
All the best!
i mean.. that is pretty low of you that you got mad at him that he doesnt have enough money to get you things. but that was pretty violent of him to just throw a punch. he is trying hard to get money, and im sure you are too. just give it time and things may start to happen. if your truly in love, you dont need ';nice things';
He punched your head!! But don't ever get down on your man because he can't do what some other guy can!! Life happens. Take it as it comes at you. That's all you can do. It could have gotten a lot uglier if you hadn't called- maybe things would have gotten out of hand?
What's past is past. You can't change that. Look towards the future= )
if he can't afford a nice staff why not borrow harry potters? I hear he's got a nice one. all he did was punch you in the head and you called the police? Wow you over reacted big time. Oh wait, you took him back, yeah.. how many blows to the head have you taken again?
...idiot
Ouch, getting called up on how you 'don't have what other people have', or getting compared, as a guy really hurts ... it makes you feel like less of a man ... it really hits hard ...
Though violence against women isn't cool ...
see what happen 2 ppl that r greedy
money money money
never satisfied
This is proof that all women want is popularity and money.
Vile, and disguisting to say the very least.
All because you wanted a flash holiday and want money. You greedy cow and shame on you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
napper, she came her for advice not verbal abuse!!!
what i can say about this situation is that its like the news. one minute its front page news and slowly it gets pushed to the back on the paper. in your circumstance so what if people know about it, as you and your husband patch things up your neighbours and friends will see you lot are ok and they will move on. dont stress yourself, laugh about it...its just a memory now, think about working towards that holiday both of you need. thats the beauty of marriage working together.
i hope you feel better. take care
Your initial moaning about his inability to provide you with the things you want (not need!) was insensitive jealousy of your friend. You don't say he is lazy or feckless and so I imagine he is doing his best to provide everything you NEED - but not quite managing everything you WANT - there is an enormous difference between need and want. So be a bit more reasonable.
BUT he punched you in the head - which is a 100% unacceptable response in any circumstances (except self-defence if being attacked physically!).
Your husband is thinking of running away from the problem - which is one solution and maybe in the end he will need to leave but not as a first response.
First you two need to talk it all through and you probably need to have some help from a Mariage Guidance Counsellor.
Try to get jim down that line - but also have a care for yourself because such a violent response is worrying.
Good luck
well, it is common for women to do that. i guess, your emotions get all fired up and you tend to forget about anything good he has done for you.
however! he should of not punched you in the head, the punch could casue severe damage to you, taht may affect you for future jobs.
every couple has the ';big'; fight, it would make you and him stronger.
the solution to your problem is this -- talk to him. you two HAVE to open up to your problems. you would be suprise to know how many couples hold their grudges in rather than talking about them.
be realistic , the economy is in shambles, he is worried about long term goals, while your worrying about materilistic things.

What's the best and worst piece on advice you've received on Y!Answers N&B section?
Is there any advice you wished you'd followed but didn't? Or any followed but now wish you hadn't?What's the best and worst piece on advice you've received on Y!Answers N%26amp;B section?
I haven't received it personally, however I really cringe every time I read someone advise mums to ';just put some baby cereal in the 2 week olds bottle, and they will sleep much better.';What's the best and worst piece on advice you've received on Y!Answers N%26amp;B section?
Well technically I didn't actually follow it (thank god) but the perpetual cut %26amp; paste 'information' on breastfeeding from ';kellymom'; and similar sites has recently proven not to be factual at all in many ways for my son -
1) breastfed babies get all the iron they need from breastmilk as milk adapts to suit their needs - false, my son is Iron Deficient at 6 months.
2) Breastmilk should be the main food for baby until they are 1 - false, a pediatric dietician has just put my son on a special high calorie diet as he was failing to thrive on a breastmilk and his weight gain was scarily low.
3) Breastmilk is enough for all babies until they are 6 months - they shouldn't be weaned before this - false, dietician says my son should have been weaned prior to 6 months since his weight issues started way before this.
I have had lots of great advice on this site too, but often see answers that make me shake my head.
I asked once about how moms cope with their babies when the mom is unwell. Most said just try the best you can which is fine, but one person said it was wrong to send baby to their grandparents or ask grandparents to come round to help abit and should not do this every time.
I had food poisoning recently and looked after my baby in between throwing up every hour and just wanting to lie down all day! I got through but it was the worst time ever and realised that if help from family is available then I should have taken it.
The worst::
I just cringe every time I see the 'Castor oil ' advise.
Oh, and a 'A way to get free ultrasounds, more often, is too pretend you have stomach pains, that way you get to see your baby, I've done it before, and will keep doing it';
It sounds like a mouthful, but I've seen a few of these lately.
By far, the BEST:
I was told to by a sling for my son, the one's that look like little hammocks.
My god, it is the greatest invention ever!
Well it was the pregnancy q/a and the worse advice i got was castor oil to induce labor lol, all it did was make me throw up and it tasted sooo horrible, even thinking about it now makes me hack. I tried every single possible way to induce myself at 40 weeks.. no baby until 41 weeks, and that was only because i was indunced.. if i wasnt im sure she would of hung in until she was 18!makeup school

Stressing over a really bad breakup...open for advice?
I was in a three and a half relationship with this guy who i was in love with, we got engaged the beginning of this year and was getting ready to move in together this summer until i came out and told him one of my secrets. About a year ago, when me and him broke up and i messed with this other guy which meant absolutly nothing.We got back together and i never said anything because it was not a big deal. Since we were moving in together this summer i wanted to tell him what happened because i didnt like hiding anything from him. However, he didnt see it my way and broke off teh engagment, friendship everything else between us. I was so heart broken i didnt know what to do with myself, i got really depressed and just thought of him all the time. Now, i still think about him alot and still want to get him back. A week before Hurricane Gustav he got into a bad car accident and i called him just to check on him, we talked and everything was cool. During the storm we still talked and texted each other constantly making sure one another was ok. We started talking about where we are at in our lives separetly, he kept asking me questions about who i been with and who i mess with since the break up, i played hard to get saying i just been doing me, chilling although im sitting around waiting for him. Its been three weeks since the storm and three weeks since i talk to him, everyday i pray that he calls or even show up at my house just so we could work things out,its even harder now becasue he left his cell phone in Texas and now its hard for me to get in contact with him. I still love him withall my heart but dont no if he feels the same way,although many of his family members say he still love me and wants to get back with me but when is he going to show that. He says its going to take time because i hurt him so bad but how much time he needs, we been broken up for almost 6 months now and im gooing crazy. Any advice on how to get him back or anything else????Stressing over a really bad breakup...open for advice?
Show him that your life is fine without him. Go out with friends, go do things on your own, etc. Just live your life and wait for a while to see what happens. He may the one playing hard to get. As long as you're the one pining after him, he's getting what he wants. He wants you to feel miserable about what happened and he's still angry. Just live your life and give him time. I have a feeling he'll be back.Stressing over a really bad breakup...open for advice?
Life sucks sometimes darlin. You made the choice to be honest and tell and he has decided it was so hurtful he can't handle it. He may love you as you do him yet however.................... even if you did get back togehter...............would it be thrown in your face again and again? Will he ever truly get over it and forgive you? If you were broke up at the time and you decided to tell him, I don't understand why he is being so hell bent over it........maybe you might want to truily do some soul searching and take some time and let him make the next effort. I think you made it clear to him by contacting him and telling him you were sorry and letting him know how you feel......so let him decide what he wants now. If he truly loves you, he will contact you, and you might have realized that having someone in your life that can't forgive you over something you did while you were seprated, might not be the kind of man you want in your life. I wish you all the best sweetie.
i was once in your situation. he had broken up with me to tell me that he was getting back with his ex girlfriend... so in the mean time i met someone else and three months later he came back and told me he lied and that he just said that because he was scared bcs he realized he felt alot more for me then he thought. we got together again but once he found out about the other guy he broke up with me again. but we got back together... why because he had been with someone else while we were apart. i'm sure he still loves you and he'll get over it too. he's just hurt, i'm not saying he did but he could have done the same thing too!!! and i'm going to pull a ross.. but YOU WERE ON A BREAK!!! i went to the other guy bcs i was hurt and felt unwanted unattracted and i enjoyed the fact that someone else did want me.
Ok Don't call or text anymore! Wait for him to text you or call... obviously he still cares if he asks who you have been with! But I think for him to break it off in the first place was silly and very immature! It was a long time ago! And be very sure that you love him and want to even take the time to get him back if he isn't understanding at all, and very rash. Is that really someone you want to be with for the rest of your life! But if he is wait. Don't go out with anyone show him that you still love him and that he is it for you he will notice! It will just take time!
Sometimes when situations are like that and things get kept from one another the other person feels like you were still unfaithful.. I would just give him time even though it was while you two werent together. Or you can just tell him how you really feel cause he may be waiting on you to let him know that you still want him back.
It's time to pull it together and move on. If he wanted to be with you...you would be together. Although u were broken up, u didn't tell him when u first got together...and maybe he saw that as lying by omission, and doesn't feel he can trust u.
I just don't believe in putting my life on hold for any man or woman...life is just too short for games.
Don't sit around and wait and don't answer the phone if he does call. If he loves you, he will call and he needs to get used to the fact that you have a life if he isn't around. He acted like an *** by breaking everything off because you were being honest with him about a time that you guys were on break. Watch out. This could be indicitive of similar behavior in future.

GUYS! I feel REALLY bad and I NEED ADVICE?! GIRLS TOO?
There's this guy josh I've liked for almost 2 years. I used to think he liked me too, but I got majorly mixed signals. Sometimes he was so good to me, and other times (like when he tried to get me lost in a neighborhood at nite)...arghhhh. The final straw came Friday when invited him to this ball I had to go to (just to hang with me so I didn't be to dance), and he flat out said no. I figured if he liked me at all,he woulda gone. Instead I spent the evenig with guys who give me the creeps, holding their hands and touching my back and thinking of how he only hands I wanted touch me were josh's.
I've had to see josh all this week at church activity were helping at. I've ignored him if he tries to talk to me. He has told my 15 year old brother, who he's friends with, every nite just how I hate him. Last nite my bro told me to tell him sorry, and I said,';I have nothing to be sorry for'; and josh said,';are u mad at me?'; he asked twice. I wouldn't answer I just turned away. ';I'm not going anywher. When urready to talk you know where I'll be.'; I said wouldn't talk. And then as the nite progressed I just got meaner and meaner towards josh.
Now... I feel like crap. I feel like I took the only guy I ever cared bout and shoved him away. WHY? Because I conned myself into believing he liked me. I will see tonight. What should I do??We're 18. Also...why would he care if I was mad at him or not?GUYS! I feel REALLY bad and I NEED ADVICE?! GIRLS TOO?
u sound meanGUYS! I feel REALLY bad and I NEED ADVICE?! GIRLS TOO?
He likes you as a friend, and he doesn't understand why you're angry at him. Maybe you should just resign yourself to being friends with him, and forget about dating him. Then you can stop being passive-aggressive and have fun again.
omgeee that soundz like my friend josh!!!!!!!!
=/
sorry dudee!!!
well judging by what I have read, youre a bad speller and your grammar is horrible for an 18 year old. Other than that, Josh is still concerned about you because you two are friends, caring for someone doesn't mean you have to be in love with them. Josh might have feelings for you, guys are just more conservative when it comes to love. Balls may just not be his thing.
Sounds to me like you guys need to have a serious sit down conversation. Tell him that you've been getting mixed signals from him about what he wants. He needs to know how you feel and why you were ignoring him. Then you can both get everything straightened out and you'll either be able to go back to the way things were or if you should go your separate ways. The best thing you can do in this situation is be honest and be calm. Don't take anything personally and don't take offense to anything.
Hope that helps.

I'm having really bad tooth pain, and advice?
Today I've had some really bad pain in one of my teeth. Its a tooth that I had a root canal in a long time ago, which has since cracked. It is something that eventually needs to be pulled and I need to get either a crown or implant. However, I don't have dental insurance right now so I can't at the moment. I haven't had any problems with it so far, so I wasn't worried about it.
Anyway, today the tooth has been hurting really bad. I'm not sure if it is an abscess or what, but I'm wondering if anyone has ideas as to home remedies that might help.I'm having really bad tooth pain, and advice?
Well I thought that after a root canal, you couldn't feel anything in that tooth because they took the living stuff out of it... but check for cavaties, and stuff, it might be a tooth around it, not the tooth that you think it is.
Other than that, you will probably have to go to the dentist, sorry!

I want a Boyfriend........BAD...so i need advice plz?
i like this guy but idk if he likes me, he'll look at me if i look at him, but im not staring at him in a wierd way its more of a glance. idk what to do. and i really dont have any confidence when it comes to talking with a boy cuz i feel all ugly lol what do i do????
heres me:
http://s567.photobucket.com/albums/ss115鈥?/a>I want a Boyfriend........BAD...so i need advice plz?
omg youre beautiful go for it...if he doesnt take the opportunity you give him then he's an idiot.I want a Boyfriend........BAD...so i need advice plz?
The first thing you need to do is KNOW that you're not ugly. I just saw your picture and you're a beautiful girl. I'm sure others have told you that too. But you really need to believe it for yourself.
Also, the more you want a boyfriend, the more you may try to push too hard for things, and end up not getting them. Just let things flow and come to you. You'll be surprised how much the universe works for you if you just let go and allow it to work at its on pace.
Try this exercise: Every day in the morning and before bed, look yourself in the mirror and say ';I love you.'; When you do it, really mean it. In a few weeks, you'll shift your thoughts about yourself.
Good luck with everything!
Okay, you're a beautiful girl. I don't see where you can think you're ugly, because you're not. Walk up to him one day after one of your glances, and say ';I've noticed you for a while, and wanted to know if you wanted to go out sometime';. Make it to where he knows you're interested, and if he likes you the same he'll accept without hesitation.
Your gorgeous.. Guys are very direct. If he if ignores you he's probably a player. But he could be like you and just be shy too. I would just ask him plain and simple. If he'd like to hang out or something. ';instead of concentrating on a BF';.. look for a person to get to know. The more you know of him the more you can progress on your relationship. Nothing wrong with what you want.
Heck, I'd be your BF.. lol
You have nothing to worry about.. Just be cute and girly. The guys will come after you.
You're not ugly, you actually look very nice (I'm not les or anything, just being honest). Boys DO indeed look at looks, but that's not what should matter the most to any respectable guy. It is the first impression, but as long as you be yourself and don't change when speaking to a guy (You know, act one way with your girlfriends, then suddenly change to a completely different person when talking to guys) you'll be fine. Someone is bound to be attracted to u.
Ugly? You are very beautiful...hold your head high....
BTW, bf's are not accessories, so having to have one like you are buying a new pair of shoes is silly.
You don't have to have a bf, if you treat it like something that you have to have you will end up putting yourself in a bad spot because you were desperate to begin with.
Well you're not ugly but if you want a boyfriend you could use the internet and find a million guys that would want to meet you but they could be pedophiles, but if you're desperate I'm sure you wouldn't mind??
you are a dumb fool .. your MAD pretty .. ask the boy if he likes you it cant hurt you .. whats the worse thats going to happen nothing .. and if he dont like you then there are other boys out in the world hes not the only one !!
good luck
When ever you wan't to speak with a guy remeber that they dont know that you like them or that your crushing on them. Just try to find some thing to speak with them about a tv program, school work, or home work.
when you catch him looking at you - smile back at him then glance away. give him your cell and ask him to txt you sometime. once you guys start txting for a while pick a day and chill! best of luck!
just talk to him. if he feels shy around you, then you must know he likes you! i know i'm not much of a help but i'm in the exact situation your in!
WHAT!? 0_0

Help i feel so bad i need some advice?
a older friend of the family just lost his 20 year old son to a drug overdose it was hieron i dont know much about this drug other then what ive seen on tv i feel so bad for my friend he is divorced and this was his only child they didnt find his sons body for a week the whole thing is just ugly and he is so sad the service was today and i just cant stop crying i dont know how to help i sent over dinner to my friend and his elderly father and my husband is taking him out for a hike tomorrow but he is so sad i have never been this close to someone who has lost someone to a drug overdose what can i do to help him any ideas would realy help also his son had been through recovery and had been clean for over one year he just sliped up while his dad and grandad were gone on vacationHelp i feel so bad i need some advice?
that is so sad keep up what your doing every little bit helps ,sorry to hear .Help i feel so bad i need some advice?
Awwh well im sorry for the loss. God bless you and the family.
im not really sure. maybe just moral support. and just knowing that he is in a better place.
Maybe you could offer to help out by cleaning their house or doing some laundry, basic things that could help alot.
Good job! You are doing the right things. Visit often but don't make a pest of yourself. Invite your friends to join your family for events and church (if they are religious) but don't insist. Ask the bereaved men to help you with a chore which will take their mind off their loss at least for a short time. Offer to listen if they want to talk but don't insist. Just sitting quietly can often be a great comfort. Let them know how much you care for them and their friendship. Bake lots of cookies. Do not be afraid to laugh in their presence. Offer assistance when needed. Time will help to heal but will never lead to forgetfulness.

I feel really really bad, need some good advice.?
Two days ago, I started a fight with my husband because he didn't have money like my friends' husband to take me on holiday or buy me nice staff.
Although he is really calm but he punched on my head, I got frustrated and rang the police.
I just wanted to scare him.
but the police arrested him and took him away, I started to cry, they treated him like a criminal.
later that day he came back home, but didn't speak a world.
the next day I went to work, but 2 hours later I just felt really bad. and told my office that I had headache and I need to go home.
When I got home, I heard my husband talking to a Solicitor and arranging for an appointment to see them.
I just started to cry and said I didn't want that to happen. He said although he loves me but he doesn't like arguments and he doesn't want to end up to the jail.
but after all we deceided to work things out. But i feel really bad, our reputation has been damaged, neighbours and all this staff, and now he has acriminal recourdI feel really really bad, need some good advice.?
Ulagam has the best advice.
Your husband is deeply ashamed and alarmed by what he did. He is a peaceful man and never wants to do it again.
I fear that you might have driven him to it. I might be wrong, but it could well be that he is setting things up to divorce you. He cannot live with you and cannot live with himself if what you do or say drives him to this level of violence. In addition to your cruel comments, you betrayed him to the police.
If you want a reconciliation and to save your marriage, the solution is blunt. He must never ever hit you again, and you must never ever again drive him to it.
Then you are in a position to face the neighbours and the police together and united.I feel really really bad, need some good advice.?
I know it is tough but this has happened for a reason. Your husband has learned a valuable lesson. Sweetheart if you did not call the police then it would have happened again and then again. Now you put a stop to it so you will not have to live a life of an abused wife. You will live a happy peaceful life. I wish more woman would do what you did. Now stop wallowing and be proud of yourself. Think of this as a new beginning to a better marriage.
I'm really so sorry for you but do you realise all you have said is how sorry you are, not how sorry he feels for hitting you and there are no excuses for that. If you dont press charges he wont have a criminal record so thats not a problem but it should have been you on that telephone. He has hit you once are you sure he isn't going to hit you again...and again?
Grow the f**k up. Both of you. Stop the drama, its not worth it. If your relationship has reached such a volatile level and you are so spiteful to each other, what do you expect? My brother and his wife do that s**t and they have hurt their daughter so much. Sort yourselves out. I'm not judging. I'm telling you the truth.
Your a very selfish person. Crying about how he doesn't have money? What about you...do you work? And calling the police...thats a big deal--do it because he did something wrong not because you wanna play some stupid little game. Punching u was wrong i won't deny that though. Hopefully you two don't stay together if he's gonna abuse you and if your gonna play childish games and cause drama.
No crying over the spilt milk. How did you have the audacity to call up the police. You can tell the police that you are not pressing the charges. Consult the solicitor both of you and you can help his case by saying things in his favour.
no matter what you did or what you said he had no right to hit you he could have walked out till he and you cooled down.so don't feel bad he should be the one to feel bad maybe you both can sit down and talk and work things out but NEVER NEVER let him hit you that is wrong
Calm or not'; he punched you in the head! and you are crying saying you want him!!! he should have thought about his reputation before he punched you.
and seriously it's women like you who allow themselves to be treated like this that make people think it's okay.,
You did the right thing - he punched you in the head for goodness sake! What will he do next time? Stab you? Couples argue. It's normal. Physical abuse however is NOT normal and is never right. You should tell him to go ahead with the divorce.
Look, what is done is done. You guys screwed up. He should not have punched you, let alone in the head. Stop feeling badly - vow to move on by either fixing what is wrong or separating.
You have nothing to feel bad about!
Your husband punched you!
No matter how bad things get you should never hit a woman, especially the one you love!
He's playing along. He's still talking to the solicitors. Let him. You can only control your actions, not his.
Wow thats bad...
U did the right thing...but it seems like its 6 of one thing half a dozen of another...
U know u love him and he knows he loves you so im sure nomater what u can get thru it...!
Good luck hun!
GOLDDIGGER
And all because you didnt know when to shut the f*ck up. Bravo to you!
You should split up that's my advice. Things will only get worse . . .
Ummm...He punched you in the head and YOU feel bad?! Honey, don't be crazy, he was EXTREMELY out of line. So what if you nagged him about being broke, men hear that all the time....it doesn't give him the right to physically assault you. You did the RIGHT thing by having him arrested. He wouldn't have this criminal record if he has SELF CONTROL and respected you. If you still want to be with him for whatever reason, at least require that he get the therapy or meds he needs to control his anger and aggression. Make sure you'll be safe with him...I've actually heard of men hitting their wives over the head with bottles killing them...he could possible kill you in one of these arguments.
Jackie you feel bad and that's okay because your entitled to feel any way you want to in America, but also in America there is thing called Domestic Violence Act. Your husband has just learned a valuable lesson that you do not hit women period ...the end.
He better learn also that he cannot threaten you either because he can go back to jail.
You are protected by the laws of the State and your husband better catch up on his current events about Domestic Violence.
You are the victim here not him...so stop feeling sorry for him...he should feel sorry for Y O U !!!
Tell him I said so!
arguing over money again - this is why we live in a society with high divorce rates, low marriages, high single mums, bad parenting etc etc, truth be told, myself included, we are all selfish because of our insistance of 'keeping up with the jones's....'
of course they were going to arrest your husband - you reported him, what did you expect them to do? couples argue - humans fight - i'm not one for 'oh, he hit me, it's domestic abuse' - domestic abuse is a lot more than one fight - it ruins a person completly over time - i don't think from the sound of it that you or he is in that category
well, you're going to have to decide what to do next, may i suggest that talking would be a good start?
First of all...don't worry about your neighbours, or work colleagues....these people don't put the bread and butter on your table...your husband shouldn't put his hands on you and you should not be causing trouble about a holiday...you both need to get your priorities right...and that is your marriage...you need to work on it..every day, every week, every month, every year...a good marriage doesn't just happen it has to be worked on...if you are trying to sort things out then you need to learn to communicate...feeling really bad is only natural and I'm sure your husband feels bad also..but you need to put all this behind you and start fresh..COMMUNICATE COMMUNICATE COMMUNICATE.
If you press charges it becomes a criminal offence. They do ask if them wish to have a solicitor and your husband obviously wants to find out where he stands legally.
Talk to him and found out what you both want next, it's a warning for you both that if you don;t talk to each other the situation will just rapidly deteriorate.
Why are you worrying about what your friend is getting - you didn't marry him so stop complaining and enjoy your life. At least you have a man to look after you - don't be so self absorbed!
Your initial moaning about his inability to provide you with the things you want (not need!) was insensitive jealousy of your friend. You don't say he is lazy or feckless and so I imagine he is doing his best to provide everything you NEED - but not quite managing everything you WANT - there is an enormous difference between need and want. So be a bit more reasonable.
BUT he punched you in the head - which is a 100% unacceptable response in any circumstances (except self-defence if being attacked physically!).
Your husband is thinking of running away from the problem - which is one solution and maybe in the end he will need to leave but not as a first response.
First you two need to talk it all through and you probably need to have some help from a Mariage Guidance Counsellor.
Try to get him down that line - but also have a care for yourself because such a violent response is worrying.
Good luck
Not content with physically assaulting you, your husband is now emotionally blackmailing you by threatening to go see a solicitor ?
Nice husband you have there hunni, don't feel guilty he had no right to slap you, let alone punch you in the head, in my opinion you were perfectly justified in calling the police on him. He deserved everything he encountered, it might teach him a valuable lesson. You're his wife, not his punch bag !
You stood up for yourself %26amp; showed him that he can't treat you in that way %26amp; get away with it %26amp; I see nothing wrong with that, I would have done exactly the same thing %26amp; then some !
You both need some counselling though if things are ever going to work out. You both need to learn how to communicate with each other %26amp; your husband needs anger management in order for him to stop being so physically aggressive towards you.
Don't feel guilty, it's what your husband wants, he knows you love him %26amp; he's playing on that. Perhaps a trialm seperation would be good for your relationship, as it might teach you both the value of marriage.
Good Luck hunni. X :-)
On the one hand, how very spoiled, shallow and petty of you to argue over not being taken on vacation and being bought nice stuff. How shallow!
On the other hand, SHAME ON HIM. To punch you like that, over money, is UNFORGIVABLE.
Be GLAD that he has had the foresight to get a lawyer and pursue divorce. He hit you, he crossed the line. Once the line's been crossed, the line MOVES. The next time, he'll hit you more and worse. You cannot step back over that line.
He is, remarkably so, actually thinking about what is best for you by choosing to take himself out of a situation that is unhealthy, not only for his own freedom, but for your own safety.
Reputation be screwed: it doesn't matter. Nor, for that matter, does nice holidays and pretty stuff. None of that matters. The neighbors don't matter - heck, half of them have probably been through the same thing. The criminal record could potentially be mitigated through some sort of sentancing agreement, like anger management classes and stuff. But it is HIS criminal record, NOT yours, and it DOES NOT MATTER. He made the choice to hit you, that is the price he must pay.
Your safety - and his, too, frankly - is what matters. Let him go. Move on. That would be the loving thing to do.
you did the right thing, so don't feel bad, but I understand where your coming from. 1st and foremost, forget about your neighbors(worring about everyone else is what got you into this jam in the 1st place). If your neighbors are human, they've gotten into fights with thier significant other as well(maybe not physical, but still). 2nd, the worst thing you can do to a man is make him feel insignificant, like his efforts aren't enough. I'm sure if he had the money or had an respectable way in getting the money, he would spoil you. Everyman wants to feel like the 'man' and spoil the woman he loves. You throwing his inability to do that in his face is no good for your marraige. However, testoterone or not he should of kept his hands to himself. If you guys are like me you probably can't afford a counselor even though your marraige will truly benefit from it cuz it sounds like hubby can use some anger management and wifey can use some inner peace and lessons on not trying to keep up with the jones. If you have can, i suggest talking with your pastor, atleast just to get an unbias opinion, but don't expect your husband to be all happy go lucky about it.
You know your husband better than any of us. Sit down and talk with him. Real talk, lay it all out on the table. Here's the thing, whateva you guys decide, you have to stick with it. So no more of 'what i don't have' and focus more on what you have. Your friends' husband may be able to buy them nice things, but you don't know what's missing in their relationship. Some of them may have to sacrifice monogamy and fidelity for their Prada purse. You need to decide what's more important and your husband needs to find other ways to express his anger cuz punching on you ain't gonna cut it.
Try to make him see that you just got caught up and lost focus. However, if this isn't his first time hitting you, then you should already know it's not worth saving and let it go no matter how much it hurts. Time will heal a broken heart and hurt feeling everytime, but there are no 2nd chances on life. So you decide who's more important you or him. Good luck to g/f, I know you're going thru difficult times.
solicitor as in prostitute or appliance salesman? if prostitute, then get rid of him
This is coming from a fellow woman's point of view:
Well, that was stupid on your part.
You shouldnt have been fighting with him for not making enough money. That isnt his fault, and he is trying to provide for you. If it means that much to you to go on a holiday, then YOU should make more money. Or, you could stop eating, and save all of your grocery money.
You challenged his manhood, and deserved to be punched in the head. He feels like he isnt worth anything anymore.
He will eventually cool down, but how the hell did you not know the police were going to arrest him? If you were never going to file charges, than you should not have wasted the police's time. You are not a very good wife, and I dont blame him for wanting to leave you.makeup school
Although he is really calm but he punched on my head, I got frustrated and rang the police.
I just wanted to scare him.
but the police arrested him and took him away, I started to cry, they treated him like a criminal.
later that day he came back home, but didn't speak a world.
the next day I went to work, but 2 hours later I just felt really bad. and told my office that I had headache and I need to go home.
When I got home, I heard my husband talking to a Solicitor and arranging for an appointment to see them.
I just started to cry and said I didn't want that to happen. He said although he loves me but he doesn't like arguments and he doesn't want to end up to the jail.
but after all we deceided to work things out. But i feel really bad, our reputation has been damaged, neighbours and all this staff, and now he has acriminal recourdI feel really really bad, need some good advice.?
Ulagam has the best advice.
Your husband is deeply ashamed and alarmed by what he did. He is a peaceful man and never wants to do it again.
I fear that you might have driven him to it. I might be wrong, but it could well be that he is setting things up to divorce you. He cannot live with you and cannot live with himself if what you do or say drives him to this level of violence. In addition to your cruel comments, you betrayed him to the police.
If you want a reconciliation and to save your marriage, the solution is blunt. He must never ever hit you again, and you must never ever again drive him to it.
Then you are in a position to face the neighbours and the police together and united.I feel really really bad, need some good advice.?
I know it is tough but this has happened for a reason. Your husband has learned a valuable lesson. Sweetheart if you did not call the police then it would have happened again and then again. Now you put a stop to it so you will not have to live a life of an abused wife. You will live a happy peaceful life. I wish more woman would do what you did. Now stop wallowing and be proud of yourself. Think of this as a new beginning to a better marriage.
I'm really so sorry for you but do you realise all you have said is how sorry you are, not how sorry he feels for hitting you and there are no excuses for that. If you dont press charges he wont have a criminal record so thats not a problem but it should have been you on that telephone. He has hit you once are you sure he isn't going to hit you again...and again?
Grow the f**k up. Both of you. Stop the drama, its not worth it. If your relationship has reached such a volatile level and you are so spiteful to each other, what do you expect? My brother and his wife do that s**t and they have hurt their daughter so much. Sort yourselves out. I'm not judging. I'm telling you the truth.
Your a very selfish person. Crying about how he doesn't have money? What about you...do you work? And calling the police...thats a big deal--do it because he did something wrong not because you wanna play some stupid little game. Punching u was wrong i won't deny that though. Hopefully you two don't stay together if he's gonna abuse you and if your gonna play childish games and cause drama.
No crying over the spilt milk. How did you have the audacity to call up the police. You can tell the police that you are not pressing the charges. Consult the solicitor both of you and you can help his case by saying things in his favour.
no matter what you did or what you said he had no right to hit you he could have walked out till he and you cooled down.so don't feel bad he should be the one to feel bad maybe you both can sit down and talk and work things out but NEVER NEVER let him hit you that is wrong
Calm or not'; he punched you in the head! and you are crying saying you want him!!! he should have thought about his reputation before he punched you.
and seriously it's women like you who allow themselves to be treated like this that make people think it's okay.,
You did the right thing - he punched you in the head for goodness sake! What will he do next time? Stab you? Couples argue. It's normal. Physical abuse however is NOT normal and is never right. You should tell him to go ahead with the divorce.
Look, what is done is done. You guys screwed up. He should not have punched you, let alone in the head. Stop feeling badly - vow to move on by either fixing what is wrong or separating.

I have a really bad case of Insomnia, advice?
I haven't slept in 4 days, I've had maybe an hour nap on 2 of the days,
but I just can't sleep! I suppose it proberly due to me being on my period, but even when i'm not, I still can't sleep well. I can't take sleeping pills as I am allergic to something in them, also, please don't tell me to go to the doctor. I wold judt like some tips on sleeping, if that's possible!?I have a really bad case of Insomnia, advice?
Besides warm milk, melatonin, valerian and 5-HTP you can find other remedies in web searches for ';natural sleep aids'; and ';natural sleep remedies';.I have a really bad case of Insomnia, advice?
first of all, even if you don't want to hear it, you should really seek a Medical Professional opinion, not just randomly on yahoo.
Menstruation can cause SOME insomnia, but not sleeping for 4 days is a bit much. As for tips, do something physical during the day. Run, exercise. Basically don't sit in front of your computer all day.
turn up the heat, the increase of the temp. will make you sleepy.
drink some hot coca before bed, but also remember to drink water as the cocoa is sweet and will dehydrate you.
good luck
have you tried Nytol they are really good, I am the same as you with sleeping pills so try them.
Listen to enya, tubular bells chilled music and read a book
the music and book will dull the brain if all else fails go tot he gym physicall knacker the body out it will have no choice but to sleep
My fella is the same but severe insomniac you are not alone
De
taking a hot bath and relax before sleeping, listening soft music,or get some massage, do not eat too full for dinner.
dont drink coffee at all..for a month...do something physically or mentally demanding during the day...and take b12 vitamins..itll help you sleep

GUYS! I feel REALLY bad, and I NEED advice?! GIRLS too?!?
There's this guy josh I've liked for almost 2 years. I used to think he liked me too, but I got majorly mixed signals. Sometimes he was so good to me, and other times (like when he tried to get me lost in a neighborhood at nite)...arghhhh. The final straw came Friday when invited him to this ball I had to go to (just to hang with me so I didn't be to dance), and he flat out said no. I figured if he liked me at all,he woulda gone. Instead I spent the evenig with guys who give me the creeps, holding their hands and touching my back and thinking of how he only hands I wanted touch me were josh's.
I've had to see josh all this week at church activity were helping at. I've ignored him if he tries to talk to me. He has told my 15 year old brother, who he's friends with, every nite just how I hate him. Tonite my bro told me to tell him sorry, and I said,';I have nothing to be sorry for'; and josh said,';are u mad at me?'; he asked twice. I wouldn't answer I just turned away. ';I'm not going anywher. When urready to talk you know where I'll be.'; I said wouldn't talk. And then as the nite progressed I just got meaner and meaner towards josh.
Now... I feel like crap. I feel like I took the only guy I ever cared bout and shoved him away. WHY? Because I conned myself into believing he liked me. I will see tomorrow nite. What should I ddo??GUYS! I feel REALLY bad, and I NEED advice?! GIRLS too?!?
give him another chance if you like him ya dig?GUYS! I feel REALLY bad, and I NEED advice?! GIRLS too?!?
I would apologize for your behavior and try a ';friends'; approach. Don't make the encounter a big deal, more of like a new first meeting. Hope that helps! =)
well, you need to flat out tell him how you feel. tell him the entire story that you just showed all of us.

I feel like a bad girlfriend..i need advice please?
i dont spoil my boyfriend, but i do write songs and sketch him things once in a while. hes so sweet, he buys me little gifts. nothing flashy, just something i would be comfortable wearing or having. like a cool necklace or aves. i made him a scrap book for his birthday, full of sketches, drawings, lyrics. the book was based on music and musicians.
somehow i feel like he deserves more.. im on a tight budget (im 15)
so i cant buy him anything really.
i always feel jelous when hes with other girls or i feel leftout when hes with his guy friends. i dont want to be that kind of girlfriend!! what can i do.. i dont show my jelousy much, and i deffinitely dont tell him i feel left out cause thats just needy. but i hate having this feeling inside of me.. helpI feel like a bad girlfriend..i need advice please?
You sound like a very good girlfriend. But if your so insecure about it ask him.I feel like a bad girlfriend..i need advice please?
The little personalized gifts you give him are not lame - they are perfect for any relationship, at any age, and on any budget.
And the jealous feelings and the feelings of being left out when he's with other people are normal, typical behaviors of a teenage female.
The part thats not normal, but really good? That you realize these feelings are unfounded.
You seem very mature, appreciative and giving. I hope your boyfriend realizes how lucky he is!
Good luck!
Tell him he is wonderful and then tell him why. Making someone feel really good and important is worth far more than money and gifts. In case being 15 this sounds lame to you think in these terms he can give you a necklace or in front of all the females he knows say this is my girl she's the greatest now would the first or second make you more happy.
hey im 14 my girlfriends 15 and u remind me so much of her shes amazing and although we've been fighting ik she still feels strongly for me as i feel for her u are nothing short of a perfect girlfriend just like my gf u care alot and thats somethng u dont find very offen dont worry he must love you and hes very lucky so am i
first off ur not a bad girlfriend and any guy would be happy to have a girlfriend like you and homemade gifts are better than store bought i would love to get sketch's or music for my b-day you sound really cool.
All you have to do is recognize that he has a life outside of you too.
Might not be easy at first, but you both need to have space outside of your relationship.

YOU'RE 15???? dear god .
You need to get close friends, where you wont be to worried about your boyfriend all the time. have girls night out wear your girl- friends go out to the movies, mall, or someones house. if your having fun you won't be jealous. You should buy your boyfriend something nice once in while, not everything has to come from the heart and your boyfriend should make you something once in a while, because he is probably feeling the same way '; Ah, she always gives me something so meaningful'; you know ? Even if your on a fixed- income you should buy something that looks exspensive but isnt as a gift.makeup school
somehow i feel like he deserves more.. im on a tight budget (im 15)
so i cant buy him anything really.
i always feel jelous when hes with other girls or i feel leftout when hes with his guy friends. i dont want to be that kind of girlfriend!! what can i do.. i dont show my jelousy much, and i deffinitely dont tell him i feel left out cause thats just needy. but i hate having this feeling inside of me.. helpI feel like a bad girlfriend..i need advice please?
You sound like a very good girlfriend. But if your so insecure about it ask him.I feel like a bad girlfriend..i need advice please?
The little personalized gifts you give him are not lame - they are perfect for any relationship, at any age, and on any budget.
And the jealous feelings and the feelings of being left out when he's with other people are normal, typical behaviors of a teenage female.
The part thats not normal, but really good? That you realize these feelings are unfounded.
You seem very mature, appreciative and giving. I hope your boyfriend realizes how lucky he is!
Good luck!
