I'm a 39 year old female, i'm a well overweight..i like my food, i'm a foodie, yum yum!! I'm not haveing much look in the men department, and to be honest i have my sights on a 25 year . , and hes real cute. However, hes just split up with a 21 year old part time model who is gorgous and he himself is a real hit with the woman, as he is just beautiful. I want his babies! I've asked him out to drinks twice but hes just had stuff on and said no, but i think hes just playing hard to get. However, my friends daughter (who is 20) tells me he goes to this really trendy bar in town and i'm thinking of asking her can I go with her. I'm crazy about him, he lives 10 doors down. I often walk by his house just for a glimpse. Tell me, how should i dress. My friends daugher says cat suits are the rage with that age group. I'm thinking of buying one, I'm size 18-20 but i heard men like curvies...helpHelp me snag this hunk of love.. I need advice girls and boys, just quick few words.?
if u lik eating lots of food and youre fat that aint gd enouhg. STOP EATING and he will like you. but if he goes out with loads of girls then y do u want him! hell probably cheat on u if u do get him to go out with you.
oh nd u should just not wear anything nd go naked......................Help me snag this hunk of love.. I need advice girls and boys, just quick few words.?
Men definitely like curves, maybe you should go for an item of clothing that you feel comfortable in and shows off your individual personality instead of wearing the latest trend. If you wear something different you will stand out against the crowd and it creates a better chance of him noticing you.
I would go to the club, have a good time and make sure you don't spend the whole night staring at him! Wait until he notices you and comes over to say hi, that way it's like a casual bump into each other and you can see where it goes. You could drop in hints during the conversations of things you will be doing over the next few weeks and see if he accidentally turns up to any of them :)
Good luck x

I'm in a tricky situation, tricky in the context of me on how to handle it, any advice? (or encouraging words)?
lets say i am on a journey. thing is i dont even know where i am going, but i know i gotta keep going. path is very steep. i am losing confidence. i'm losing it to a point that i cant think straight, it must be that i am giving in to adversity. its been so a while, never gave up.
i need to keep on going.
i'm posting this for a reason:
anybody out there got some love, encouragement, hope words to help me along?I'm in a tricky situation, tricky in the context of me on how to handle it, any advice? (or encouraging words)?

But here's a poem by langston hughs
Well, son, I'll tell you:
Life for me ain't been no crystal stair.
It's had tacks in it,
And splinters,
And boards torn up,
And places with no carpet on the floor --
Bare.
But all the time
I'se been a-climbin' on,
And reachin' landin's,
And turnin' corners,
And sometimes goin' in the dark
Where there ain't been no light.
So boy, don't you turn back.
Don't you set down on the steps
'Cause you finds it's kinder hard.
Don't you fall now --
For I'se still goin', honey,
I'se still climbin',
And life for me ain't been no crystal stair.
When you come to the end of all the light you know, and it's time to step into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing that one of two things shall happen: Either you will be given something solid to stand on or you will be taught to fly.
I believe the last guy who tried to communicate exclusively in parables and metaphors wound up nailed to a pair of planks.
At best, you'll get only metaphorical suggestions. explain yourself.
Its tricky to rock around to rock around its right on time, its tricky.
Lots of love to you on your journey, and have you read 'pilgrim's progress', that's about a great journey too.

Words of Advice?
My 6 year old daughter will be going out of state to visit her dad for the first time. I am a bit nervous cause I have never been without her. Any advice on how to prepare us both for the month long seperation?Words of Advice?
My ex and I lived about a mile away from each other for 4 years after our divorce. Our son spent time with both of us every week. I recently had to move out of state temporarily for work. It was a little rough on all of us. The most important thing I think is to let your child know you're going to miss them, but don't make them feel guilty about spending time with the other parent. I always tell my son when he goes to his dads that I'm going to miss him, but it's great he's going to visit his dad. I also got him a cell phone on my plan so he can call me any time he wants to while we are apart. My son is 10, so I don't know if the cell phone idea would be feasible for a 6 year old. Just don't make her feel like she's abandoning you and she should be ok with the separation. As for being with out your child, that's a tough one. I miss my son very much when he's gone, but we talk on the phone every day which makes it easier. The web cam idea is also a GREAT one.Words of Advice?
Get a webcam thats what me and my dad due and its like he is almost really there sometimes.
Talk to her in plain language, tell her the truth. Tell he she can call at any time for any reason. Also, arrange a designated time when you WILL call her. Be sure Capt. what's his bucket knows about the designated time.
It's going to be tough for a whole month. Give her lots of things to take to remind her of home (pictures, toys, etc), and make sure you agree to talk on the phone as often as possible once she is there.
If her father has the internet, you could communicate via webcam, perhaps.
I am sorry, but I don't understand why on earth you'd let such a little girl stay for so long with a man she has never seen before!!!! This is really weird !!!
I think you should reconsider this visit.
It would be much more sensible for the child to see his picture first, then meet him and after they've spent time together plan a visit....and even then, not for an entire month!
You should ask a child psychologist how to deal with this so the girl is as less freaked out as possible...!
It is not easy I know this. My oldest 2 girls go to NC every summer and spend the summer with their dad. At first it was very hard and still is. Just remember you can call her everyday or at night before she goes to bed. Send her a picture of you with her. Write her a little note and put it in her suitcase. For you just find one of her favorite stuffed animals and sleep with it every night it will make you feel a little closer to her. Trust me it does get easier over the years. My daughters are now 14 and 12 and now I look forward to summers they go with their dad. Most of all just take it one day at a time. Let your ex know you will be calling her alot and if he has a problem with that then tough. Do what makes you feel better about her being away from you. Good Luck sweetie !!
wrap her in bubble wrap.
KEEP BUSY!!! That is what worked the best for me. The first time I was without mine for a weekend, I almost went nuts. Keeping myself busy is the only thing that helps me get through every other weekend. I could not imagine a month without them!
Huh? You and your daughter have NEVER been apart before and all of a sudden she is going out of state for a month? Who decided this? Don't you think she should be spending a few intermittent weekends with him before she goes into his care full time for half the summer?
MY advice is to talk lots with her dad between now and then. Together, you need to try and brainstorm as many possible situations he or she might find themselves in during her visit and agree on how to handle them. Which ones will require your input? Which ones will he decide the proper course of action. How will the two of you prepare her for the difference in parenting styles, house rules, food, etc...
(I'm still dumbfounded that she is going on a month long visit with no prior exposure. That is so wierd....)
I had this problem when i had my daughter for a week (usually overnight only every other wk end) ....
I just got her to phone mum every evening to say hi and chat ...she was fine try doing the same... did it for both their sakes as i know the wrench it can be.....
Most of all make sure he gets her to call when missing you just for a small chat to calm her down... after few days she'll settle in and be fine
Wish you luck you just keep busy...x
I'd tell her anything she needs to know about seperation and taking care of herself and pack her suitcase in the best way I could, tooth brush and tooth pastes and other stuff you know she needs. Then you can accept the situation as a new experience for your daughter that will make her stronger and will teach her a lot. Your little girl will be back smarter.:)
Calm down lady, just do all the needed cares. I think you can also call her every day, this will also calm you.
Good luck, bests
NO don't let her go. What is wrong? Tell him to come to your daughter. Don't do it. Change your phone number.

Advice on CM and general words of support needed?
Firstly, my body is acting very strange this month. I've not really had any EWCM this month. Usually I get around 3 - 4 days of it each month, but this month I've only had rubbery or sticky cm. I have however had an increase in temperature. But the two days before this we didn't BD so I am gutted if I ovulated then, but I didn't have the ewcm. Does this mean I didn't ovulate this month - I'm confused.
Secondly, my sister in law had a baby girl yesterday and I feel so jealous. I feel very down today and on the verge of tears for no particular reason (I normally feel like this when AF is due - but that's not due until 14 April). I am going to visit my new baby niece after work and in some ways I don't want to see her. I know it sounds awful and I feel terrible for thinking it but I would love to have a baby girl and it seems like that's impossible at the moment. Is anyone out there feeling the same - or can you offer a few words of comfort for me?
lots of love and baby dust to us all xx
PS. No nasty answers pleaseAdvice on CM and general words of support needed?
Every woman will have a cycle now and then where they do not ovulate. The lack of CM MIGHT mean that this was one of those months for you.
I'm sorry about how badly you're feeling about the new baby. Just know that is a normal feeling for anyone who has been trying to conceive and has not gotten pregnant.
Try to do something good for yourself this month. A massage or a spa day!
Best wishes to you!Advice on CM and general words of support needed?
This happened to me last month. I did not have any sign of ewcm and then my period came 15 days late so it was safe to say I did not ovulate that month. But on the other hand I noticed some ewcm this morning so sometimes in your cycle you may not ovulate one month. I would keep trying and maybe start using ovulation predictor to pinpoint your ovulation so you know when is a good time to bd. I know its hard not to feel terrible when someone close has a baby and you feel so let down but it will happen and when it does you will feel guilty for thinking like that so even though its hard try to stay positive. and tons of baby dust for you!!!
Some women just don't get good quality EWCM every month, it doesn't mean that you didn't ovulate. Some women ovulate and never even get a positive with an ovulation predictor kit! Maybe you should look into Pre-Seed or PreConceive Plus (they're basically just synthetic EWCM lubes).
I don't post here much, but I lurk sometimes and I know how you feel with the jealousy. I've been ttc for nine months and NOTHING, and it seems like everyone around me is getting pregnant with no trouble at all. It's hard. If you don't want to visit, don't: look after your own well-being. One of my closest friends is pregnant and I cry every time I talk to her. It makes me feel like a horrible person, but the fact of the matter is, THIS IS PAINFUL. There's no shame in that.
Take care of yourself, and good luck. I hope you get a bfp soon!
What you are experiencing about the baby is normal, it's ok for you to feel that way. Do something special for yourself to help you unwind and de stress and don't beat yourself up over it.
Also minimal or no EWCM doesn't mean you didn't ovulate, my cm is more profuse some months than others. So hold out hope and stay positive cos you just never know. It's not over until AF sings!
Prayers and a ton of baby dust your way. Good luck and God bless.xx
well hon you know i had very little ewcm last cycle and if it hadnt been for my monitor and my temps i wouldnt have known i had o'd.
we did conceive that cycle though (sadly i just lost the pregnancy at 5 weeks 5 days), despite the ewcm not being so good so never give up hope.
i really have to say that the clearblue fertility monitor and preseed combined with temping (i know it sounds like a lot of work) worked for us. it was the 1st time we did any of those things and we conceived. i am definitely a fan of preseed.
as for the neice i promise as soon as you meet her all those jealous feelings will melt away. its normal to resent births and pregnant people when you are ttc but let all that resentment go and enjoy being a cool auntie! congratulations. x

Good advice on how to increase your pool of vocabulary - and become able to use these words?
Recently, I relieased the great importance of having a large pool of words and phrases at my own disposal - for different social settings, understanding others, describing a thought, an idea, a process, almost anything involving verbal communication.
However, i find myself using the words and phrases I have been accustomed to use since I was a child. Recently, I started to read alot...
Do you know a good method to increase your vocabulary? And how do you master these words - like consciouly incorporate them into your conversation, writing so on? Are there any good books or sites on this subject?
I really want to improve my word choice and in turn the style of my speech!!Good advice on how to increase your pool of vocabulary - and become able to use these words?
Be careful of what you wish for and which tools you pick up in order to express your desires. Let your words be in concert with your mind and your mind in harmony with your words. Reading is, indeed, the first link in that chain. Read with a dictionary close at hand. Do not think that reading just anything will make you wise. Nor will putting a large vocabulary into your mouth make you any more understandable.
Read Ralph Waldo Emerson for thoughts loftier and more succinctly put. Read Baltasar Gracian for true wisdom regarding the condition of human interaction. If you say that their vocabularies are not what you wish, and Gracian certainly did not write in English so the translations will be stilted anyway, try reading Kim Stanley Robinson. He is sold in Science Fiction. Pick up _40 Signs of Rain_ and then the sequal _50 Degrees Below_ for a cultural education.
Try putting a vocabulary word up on your bathroom mirror. Use it at least three times in one day. Find a use for it. There are daily desk calendars like that.
One of my favorites, and I have had a few, was frangible. Means ';crumbly';: I used it to describe the cladding on nuclear fuel, my mood after teaching all day on my tortured right leg, the situation in Iraq among the Shiites, Sunnis and Kurds. Frangible.
Read poetry. There you have wordsmiths paring vocabularly. Ah, the best and brightest today are pushing those words hard. I do not mean the dreck we see posted here. Read modern stuff from the Beats on forward.
That is enough to get you started. Oh, one other thing. Remember that communication is only possible between equals. You start using words and phrases no one understands, you might as well be reciting Jabberwocky. Might amuse you, but annoys the h3ll out of others. Example is a joke I wrote for an answer to a question. Read my joke and the answer right below. *sigh*
BTW, I teach nuclear science, radiation chemistry, and tech writing at a nuclear power plant. I am also a published poet and have been an editor of poetry magazines.Good advice on how to increase your pool of vocabulary - and become able to use these words?
Reading is the best way to increase your vocabulary. Normally context will give you a good means of understanding words you are unsure of, however a dictionary near by is never a bad idea. If you can get through the reading w/o the dictionary jot the words down on a sticky and look them up later.
Using the words is great. Just remember that the real big words may need definition to others so be prepared to explain and make sure that you use them right.
I am a big proponent of having a sizable vocubulary but some words are just escoteric and will make you look snobby choose your words wisely.
i look up words daily and try to use them, if i hear a word i dont know that someone uses, i ask what it means, or i look it up. its a great way to gain a larger vocab.
Read the New York Times, do the Sunday crossword puzzle in the magazine section and turn off your television. Instead concentrate on quality fiction, biography and books on politics and history
Read, write, and use a dictionary. It is discipline, while reading write down every word you don't know and look it up. Use it at some point too. Use it obnoxiously the first days until you are searching the recesses of your mind for its synonym. Then you will know it. There are no shortcuts for expansive vocabularies aside from diligence and memory.
Yes, reading is the best way to expand your vocabulary. Keep a dictionary within reach of a couple places where you like to sit and read most often (I often won't get up to look up a word, but if the dictionary is right there...). Stop to look up words you're unfamiliar with, even if you can guess their meaning; this will help fix their definition in your mind. You could also try setting something like Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day as your home page (http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/mwwod.pl) and then make an effort to use that word sometime during the day. It might sound a little awkward, but practice is really the best way to get used to how to use words. Finally, I find that simple rote memorization of vocabulary lists doesn't work that well because you can't assimilate that many new words all at once and instead you end up learning none at all. Good luck and have fun!
Read books
get the books WordSmart and WordSmart II by the Pronceton Review. VERY helpful.
When you have a question about vocabulary perhaps you should use spell check. Master that first. Walk then run grasshopper.neutrogena
However, i find myself using the words and phrases I have been accustomed to use since I was a child. Recently, I started to read alot...
Do you know a good method to increase your vocabulary? And how do you master these words - like consciouly incorporate them into your conversation, writing so on? Are there any good books or sites on this subject?
I really want to improve my word choice and in turn the style of my speech!!Good advice on how to increase your pool of vocabulary - and become able to use these words?
Be careful of what you wish for and which tools you pick up in order to express your desires. Let your words be in concert with your mind and your mind in harmony with your words. Reading is, indeed, the first link in that chain. Read with a dictionary close at hand. Do not think that reading just anything will make you wise. Nor will putting a large vocabulary into your mouth make you any more understandable.
Read Ralph Waldo Emerson for thoughts loftier and more succinctly put. Read Baltasar Gracian for true wisdom regarding the condition of human interaction. If you say that their vocabularies are not what you wish, and Gracian certainly did not write in English so the translations will be stilted anyway, try reading Kim Stanley Robinson. He is sold in Science Fiction. Pick up _40 Signs of Rain_ and then the sequal _50 Degrees Below_ for a cultural education.
Try putting a vocabulary word up on your bathroom mirror. Use it at least three times in one day. Find a use for it. There are daily desk calendars like that.
One of my favorites, and I have had a few, was frangible. Means ';crumbly';: I used it to describe the cladding on nuclear fuel, my mood after teaching all day on my tortured right leg, the situation in Iraq among the Shiites, Sunnis and Kurds. Frangible.
Read poetry. There you have wordsmiths paring vocabularly. Ah, the best and brightest today are pushing those words hard. I do not mean the dreck we see posted here. Read modern stuff from the Beats on forward.
That is enough to get you started. Oh, one other thing. Remember that communication is only possible between equals. You start using words and phrases no one understands, you might as well be reciting Jabberwocky. Might amuse you, but annoys the h3ll out of others. Example is a joke I wrote for an answer to a question. Read my joke and the answer right below. *sigh*
BTW, I teach nuclear science, radiation chemistry, and tech writing at a nuclear power plant. I am also a published poet and have been an editor of poetry magazines.Good advice on how to increase your pool of vocabulary - and become able to use these words?
Reading is the best way to increase your vocabulary. Normally context will give you a good means of understanding words you are unsure of, however a dictionary near by is never a bad idea. If you can get through the reading w/o the dictionary jot the words down on a sticky and look them up later.

Strangers often seem to give the best advice,when criticizing...what do you think of my words?
The constant abuse of “I wills” is closely always followed by an almost certain let down. Unfortunately, It is an obvious self made tragedy that indulges every action, thought and word. An illness exists in deepest essence of my being and so I am cautious. Life should not have to be lived as a strategy. Looking for ways to dodge face-offs and simple words is my pitiful way. Staring off into the endless, vastness of space is comforting. It is better to face an unlimited emptiness alone than to have to deal with the troubles of the world. I falsely claim to understand greed, and hatred, because that is where my story begins. A simple brush off wont do. It has become more complex than that because I imprison myself. The key to your heart must also be the key to this cell (or so it was what I believed). My freedom seems to fade now. I can only hope that the key has not been lost, in that same vast emptiness that once allured me. Show me that I exist.Strangers often seem to give the best advice,when criticizing...what do you think of my words?

Relationship advice, i need some words of wisdom from somebody?
My boyfriend and I have been dating now for about 8 months. I started off amazingly, and we fell quickly for one another. Everything was great for the first few months. We got in a big argument about a month and a half ago about a lot of different things but we resolved the issue. Since then we have both tried and have changed for one another and tried not to be so selfish and to learn how to give a little more to each other. Since then though, we both just arent as happy. I feel like our relationship has gone bipolar. One day we are great and the next day its ****. Its not seeming to get better. I dont know if its a temporary thing or if this relationship is just doomed to not get any better. We just had not really an argument but a talk about where this was going and we both addressed how we arent that happy. He brought it up and feels more strongly about it than i do, so i told him that he should take some time to think about things. I love him a lot and i know he loves me, i am just having trouble figuring out if we are that compatible for each other or if we are forcing it. I am a very loyal person and dont like to give up on things. We are both too future oriented and loyal to break up as of now. I would just love some advice or wisdom from somebody who has been through this or can relate or even someone just nice enough to share their opinion. Thank you. Sorry about how long this is.Relationship advice, i need some words of wisdom from somebody?
You've built a solid friendship by the sounds of it, maybe that's what you need to concentrate on now.
It might be that you've outgrown each other romantically and need to either break up or spend time apart, but keep the friendship.
Maybe you'll both meet other people, have other relationships and eventually decide you want each other, maybe you'll do that and eventually decide you're better apart.
Always keep the friendship though, 'cause friends last a lot longer than lovers.
Good luck (:Relationship advice, i need some words of wisdom from somebody?

What advice can i give him? or words of comfort?
My brother married to his wife for 7 years is in need of comfort.... He has 2 girls with her. She left him the begining of January because she felt she was not happy in the marriage. He has changed alot and wants his family to be together. They both have seperate houses.. WEll she came back into the picture about three weeks ago. before she never wanted to see him nor talk to him other than things having to do with the kids. Well 3 weeks ago she hugs him and kisses him..giving him thoughts she wants to work it out. its been 6months of sepearation and he gave her an ultimadim.. 3 days ago she says i want to work it out...and he was super excited but then she starts crying.. and admitted to sleeping with someonelse.. now my brother is torn because he was the only person she had been with..and now that was gone.. he wants his family but every time he sees her he imagines her and the other man. Now my brother is calling me in tears asking what do i do? i don't know what to say? help?What advice can i give him? or words of comfort?
Just tell him
DOn't tell me bout yo mama's draws cuz she is stank and you are too.What advice can i give him? or words of comfort?
They need some counseling and to talk these issues out. As far as him being the only one she had ever been with, that may very well be why she wanted to ';test the waters'; outside the marriage a little bit. It may be hard on his ego to know he isn't the only one she has ever been touched by, but honestly that idea is a little bit antiquated anyway. The bigger issues are why she felt the need to leave and can they reconcile the marriage, especially for the kids sake.
He should make sure she's not just coming back to him because she's pregnant. Also make her get tested for STDs. If all checks out, I would tale her back and try to make it work. For better or for worse is part of the vows for a reason. I think if he tries to forgive her and make it work, he'll be happier in the long run.
Tell him that two wrongs can make a right Tell him tit for tat go and have an affair and hopefully he'll feel better and if this isn't part of his logic then tell him to take her back at least they'll be back together time will heal his wounds. S H I T happens he needs to ask himself if the shoe was on the other foot how does he think she would feel. Hell men been doing the s h i t for years and now the tables turn on them it's the end of the world boo f-ing who
Did she sleep with someone else when they were together or apart? If together I can understand his pain because that was deceitful, but if when they were separated, he needs to get over himself... I mean, I'm sure he has been with other woman and it is unfair of him to say ';every time he sees her that he sees her with another man'; It is rare to find anyone now a days that have only been with one or two people, If he wants to work it out with her then he just has to get past that. They still have two kids and a history.
My heart goes out to your brother and the kids. Maybe counseling will help them. To leave your husband is one thing but to leave the children is a totally different. That is very selfish and inconsiderate of her. I could never trust her after that and look at what she is putting the kids thru. My guess is that she left her family for this other man and it did not work with this other man and now she wants to come back home because she knows your brother loves her and will take her back.
I personally think he would do better in the long run without her.
I would suggest they get into family counselling, during break ups, people usually tend to gravitate towards someone that will comfort them during times of stress. Was it because she was with someone else that she left in the first place? infidelity can be worked out, if both want it that way. What's gone is gone, if he really wants to work it out, he needs to grieve for what is lost, and look towards the future, whether that be with her or with out her.
Honestly, I think he needs healing and he needs space from her, romantically, until he can figure out whether he can forgive her mistakes or not.
Remind him that no matter how much both of them wanted to, they can not change their past, and that maybe, if they really wants to make everything work (their marriage and their family) they will have to focus on the future...
Tell him the only reason she is coming back is because she left him for another man and the other guy used her up and now has dumped her skanky a s s and he is her fall back on man!!
They weren't together when this happened? He needs to get past it, if he really wants his family. However, she left once. What's to say she won't leave again? What changes did he have to make? Does he need counseling- from a professional? When he's imagining her with this other man, He's causing it to happen right then in his head. She's not doing it anymore. And she did not have to tell him. Lot's of people would not have. They really need professional counseling or to move on.
She was honest with him and that's huge, and for her to admit that must of been the toughest thing she has ever done. She could have said nothing but there is obvious and sincere guilt. Counciling for both will be a must and it will take time for the hurt to go away. I respect her for being truthful when so many would of lied or said nothing. I believe she truly loves him to be this honest with him.
If your brother believes that she is sincere and sorry then he should look in his heart and decide whether he has it in him to forgive her. Then suggest counseling, this mistake and unconditional love from your brother couild seal their marriage tight forever if they can make it through this rough time. I personally know of two people in my life that this has happened to and they have been married for at least twenty years past the horrible mistakes of the wifes...so there is hope.

What? I thought he was in drag!I'm looking for advice on how to become a Queen Elizabeth drag queen. Any words of wisdom out there?
Elizabeth I or II?
For the first one, go with lots of white make-up and one of those big ruffs around your neck.
If it's the second, big hats. Her dresses themselves really don't seem fancy enough.
When I think of the queen I think of her in a dowdy suit with gloves and tiara and waving her as she does (screwing in a light bulb style).
Perhaps diamonds on neck
And then something that makes it obv you are of the British Monarch like a flag??
Oh, and a really ugly boxy black handbag, matching shoes and perhaps tea stained teeth.
The drag-queen part? Big shoulders, Leg Muscles
Love it!
Go here too:
http://www.royal.gov.uk/output/Page6.asp
Find a place that sells ventage clothing. If inexperience with make-up find a girl to help you who will take this task seriously and not try to make you look like a whore. Wear long sleeves and ankle length dress to cover hair and muscles. Wear gloves, nail polish and Elizabeth will not mix. You also will need to try to make your face as light as possible, almost goth like, to really look authentic.
I am kind of assuming your not a generic drag queen...if you are sorry for waisting your time since I really don't have many ideas on the Queen part.
Buy a tiara %26amp; hide your candy.
bad question to ask.

You know how they say you need to kick a guy to the curb if he aint treating you right coz u deserve better. That's what i did to my first love, but now i'm married and i couldn't stop thinking of my ex, and I think of him wit love in my heart after 10 years since the break-up. Some ppl might say hat I need to move, trust me I would do anything to forget him, at least for a while, but memories of him became stronger after I got married to my husband which I think is weird, or could it be that people only fall in love with one person their entire lives. Tht would mean I am in love with the guy I met when I was 14 years old and today I am 28 . And could it be that young that one maybe be, it is possible to fall in love even if grown ups tend to say we are to yong to kn ow what we want.. but I spent a good deal of my teenage years until early adulthood with my ex... I feel guilty that I have no love for my husband, I am with him because i wanted to move on wit a good man.. but it is not easyPlease send me words of wisdom, comfort or advice.Can u still be in love with an ex after 10 yrs?
You made the choice to be with your husband you got married to him you gave your heart and soul to him so work it out together get marriage counseling. You can fall in love with anyone you choose. It's not right to be thinking of another man while you are married you need to focus on the now and make your marriage and life better. Do something special for your husband and think less about yourself and more for him and you may learn to appreciate him some more you would be surprised. Watch a movie called FIreproof it may help you realize some things.Please send me words of wisdom, comfort or advice.Can u still be in love with an ex after 10 yrs?
Let me tell you for a fact, it is ok to still love your ex. Just remember why that situation does not exist today.
Maybe you left for the right reason or the wrong. But, if you current situation is working for you. Stick with it.
Cherish what was.. But, keep building on what is..
yes and no bc it will pass it is like a phase
please understand that you are only in love with the idea of him and the way things were at the time. you've changed, he's changed...trust me, some things are better left in the past. i don't think that you are still in love with him. i think that you loved him at that point in your life. i also think that you should try to work things out with your husband. i know you can't help how you feel, but you can control your actions. but alas, if you truly don't love him, he deserves someone who does. and trust me, if your husband is a good man, g'luck trying to find that again.

THERE AREN'T MANY LIKE THEM ANYMORE AND YOU CAN CONSIDER US ONE OF THE LUCKY ONES! SOMETIMES WE ARE JUST TO STUPID TO REALISE IT. SORRY FOR THE ESSAY LOL.
Is it possaible here that you truly believe that you don't deserve a good man? Do you think you deserve a man who is a ';problem child'; in your life who treats you badly? The start of your question sounded like you were describing your former relationship (plus you were still a child when you were with him). If I interpreted this accurately, then this is a self-esteem issue, honey. Seriously, get yourself into some counseling with a female counselor who specializes in women's issues. Please don't give up on your marriage yet. If he is a truly good man, ask him to be patient while you work on yourself and try to get through these emotional issues. You are not required to tell him what those issues are, but let him know you are really stuck with some problems from your past and you are trying to work them through. I wish you well, hon.
It is quite possible to be in love with someone yet know it is impossible for you to live with him - for your own health and sanity. As for having trouble letting go, many psychologists believe that we biologically imprint on our early loves from our teen years - that is, our experiences are so new and intense then that they leave a lifelong impression on us. That would explain why so many people never ever completely get over their first love. That being said, in those same teen years our brains are not yet fully developed - that does not happen until our mid-20's. That explains why so many of those first loves don't survive forever - when our brains are developing we make many decisions that we later realize were not safe or appropriate for who we are as adults. So what you are feeling for your ex in not unusual. As for your husband, why did you marry him? I suspect you are more in love with him than you may realize. Try spending more time alone having fun with him talking with him like you did when you were dating. And if you can't work this out on your own, find someone to talk to - a counselor, a pastor - so that you can get your life on track again and put those loving memories of the past where they belong now - in your past - so you can truly enjoy living in the present.
have you considered having him for a little bit of fun on the side?
You made the choice to be with your husband you got married to him you gave your heart and soul to him so work it out together get marriage counseling. You can fall in love with anyone you choose. It's not right to be thinking of another man while you are married you need to focus on the now and make your marriage and life better. Do something special for your husband and think less about yourself and more for him and you may learn to appreciate him some more you would be surprised. Watch a movie called FIreproof it may help you realize some things.Please send me words of wisdom, comfort or advice.Can u still be in love with an ex after 10 yrs?
Let me tell you for a fact, it is ok to still love your ex. Just remember why that situation does not exist today.
Maybe you left for the right reason or the wrong. But, if you current situation is working for you. Stick with it.

What is the best advice anyone has ever given you and did you accept their words of wisdom?
One of my very good friends pulled me aside when I was in Maui the day before my wedding. He told me that he loved and respected me (as a friend) and that if I wasn't ready to get married to my husband (now my ex) that I didn't have to and that he would make all the arrangements if I chose not to get married the next day. He also told me that no matter what, he would still love and respect me despite any decision I made. I really should have listened to him and to my heart that day and said NO. It was disastrous from the wedding on. Wasted a lot of time and A LOT of money.What is the best advice anyone has ever given you and did you accept their words of wisdom?
I was told by my parents to always try to be the best person I could be. Always tell the truth no matter what, don't lie, cheat or steal and treat others the way I would like to be treated. Sometimes the truth hurts but it's better than lying.
Yes I listened. Peace n smiles :`))What is the best advice anyone has ever given you and did you accept their words of wisdom?
My parents advised me not to lie, steal and hurt others. I obeyed to some extent. When grew up, they asked me not to smoke. That still I could not obey, but I am trying hard to.
Liquor before beer-you're in the clear
beer before liquor-you'll never be sicker
yes i did accept these words of wisdom:)
Never write a check you can't cash. That goes with giving your word and is a metaphor for a great many things.
Find out what you Love to do in Life and the figure out how to get paid for doing it !
It has been my life's motto. It has worked for ME ;)))))))))))))
I don't remember but I'm sure I have listened on occasion but I'm stubborn so I wouldn't bet on it
An old man at a bar...
';Never worry or fret over something you can NOT change.';
An old Lady at a bar...
';Quit looking for true love....soon as you do, Love will find you.';
never say never ! yes i did head the adviceyou just never no !
Yes,when taking a piss from a moving vehicle,stand downwind.
GOD... (JESUS CHRIST)...Proverbs and Ecclesiastes is the best wisdom in the life.
Do what ever job you are doing to the best of your ability and with honor and pride!
When you're in the lead never look back to see who's gaining on you, I don't and I'm still in the lead.
My dad told me never eat anything bigger than your head. I tried it once in Vegas. He was right.
to get my education for that is the one thing that can never fail me...i listened.
What goes around comes around, I learned that from a tether ball.

I am so devestated...And I need advice and/or words of wisdom?
I have been dating a guy for a year and a half ( known him for 4 years) we work together and also live together. He just accepted a job offer about 90 miles away where he will have to move. Problem is, I have a child from a previous marriage (as does he) and my child has special needs and cannot be transferred from his school district, plus my ex is very much involved in his life so I cannot leave to move with my boyfriend and leave my son behind. I am so hurt, I feel like my b/f is abandoning me and I feel so worthless. I know its silly but thats how i feel..It's like if I was good enough he wouldnt be able to leave. the job offer is for SO much more money, and I understand that part of it but, again, we are a big part of each others lives. He asked me to go wtih him but I can't leave my son. Can you give me some advice, and also maybe a song that can help me through this, i am completely devestated.. i can't eat, i can't sleep, and we live together and its like we are counting down the days...i'm sick to my stomach.I am so devestated...And I need advice and/or words of wisdom?
I dont see why him accepting the job offer is a bad thing. If you guys have a strong relationship full of love and trust you can make it through. Long distance relationships work and last if the people are right for one another. With there being more money involved, ecspecially much more, he may be thinking more into the future of your relationship and is planning on saving for your future together. Then maybe, when the time is right, he will be able to move back or you move to him.I am so devestated...And I need advice and/or words of wisdom?

Any help advice out there, words of comfort.?
i live in a house with a lot of tension- just this morning i went downstairs and there was a notice posted on the door of one of the tenants- about the state of the toilet is left- i wont say what it said-
but the same tenant drinks a lot- he was also in a fight and had a black eye- and there is something creepy about Him- im hoping he would just disappear but nothing happens- i hate these situations- what can i do- the landlord and lady know all about itAny help advice out there, words of comfort.?
You could make several anonymous tip offs to the police about drug deals taking place. It may seem malicious, but it sounds as if there is something dodgy about him, and the police might find incriminating evidence about him. If the police visit him enough times, he could be in breach of his tenancy agreement.Any help advice out there, words of comfort.?
Make sure your door is locked if you feel unsafe, and that you have a plan for help protection (police phone number in mobile, or buy mobile, legal weapon/plan for self defence.) I'm not suggesting you are particularly at risk, but the fact that you have posted the question indicates that you are worried.
Aside from that, if he doesn't bother you otherwise, keep out of his way and get on with your life. There are people who get drunk and then when in this state get in fights, but who normally wouldn't bother anyone.
Avoid the person, do not provoke them, tell your parents %26amp; if they don't listen tell another relative or an official at your school.
You have to rise above it. Do not bother with this person ever.
You are not being blamed.
Hope things improve and the tenant leaves.neutrogena

How do i get a website that can give me advice on life and other words of wisdom?
i am confused about the way things are going on in the world and everything i do simce to be wrong. please i need some words of inspiration and encouragementHow do i get a website that can give me advice on life and other words of wisdom?
Hanny,
No website can answer questions about life, but life itself. Leave the Net. Move about in the world.
Observe first, form ideas, theories, hypotheses. Get real experiences. Learn lessons. Apply lessons. Learn from other people's lives and experiments.
Don't expect books and websites to live your life. LIfe is a verb, it is lived, not learnt. What is life, but LIVING it? Once you have something to think about, you will get ';tools'; to help you. These tools include books, people, even websites. But without living life for yourself, these tools will not make you the master of the art of life.
It is the artist who uses the tools. A tool doesn't make a person an artist.
Good luck!How do i get a website that can give me advice on life and other words of wisdom?

I want a threesome with my boyfriend and another girl of my choice...any words of wisdom or advice on this?
I know he really wants to and I'll admit I am curious. I have no experience with a girl and I think that turns him on even more...I have never even kissed a girl. I don't think I would be jealous because I know he loves me and will continue to do so. But I just want to know if anyone else has done this...was it a good or bad experience? How did it affect your relationship?
I will be choosing this girl and am not leaving it open to him to decide who it is.I want a threesome with my boyfriend and another girl of my choice...any words of wisdom or advice on this?
If you're both consenting, then sure. Two friends of mine did this with another girl. They're married today, so it doesn't necessarily mean that the relationship will fail just because you bring a third party into it.
However do consider that although you might not feel jealous now, you could during or after the threesome.
My take is that a couple keeps their love life to themselves, and leave threesomes for three friends in search of having a good time. But that's my take ;).I want a threesome with my boyfriend and another girl of my choice...any words of wisdom or advice on this?
Ok, here's the deal. If you are curious anyway I would pass on the threesome. The reason I say this is because there is a chance you could become romantically involved with the girl of your choice should things go well. It's virtually impossible for a woman to have sex with anyone and not develop feelings...well almost impossible. Sex with a woman is so different from sex with a man. It's sensual and sweet. It could really go either way but if you value and want to keep your relationship with your bf I would pass if I were you. Who is to say that you don't fall for the girl and realize you want to switch teams??? Points to ponder...
there is no reason no to expect a long relationship with him like other people say.
You just have to be absolutely SURE this is something you WANT to do not just that he wants to and you love him so you will, because it that is the case it will end badly
Otherwise have fun with it be trusting and talk to him about rules you both agree to like 'he can't kiss her on the lips' anything you think might be negative later
Good luck!
I have tried being the 'other girl' twice but each time I couldn't go through w/ it because they were my friends and I could see before we even got started that it was causing problems...jealousy mainly because the guy was paying more attention to me then their girlfriend.
I strongly urge you not to do this. It will cause problems at some point. My current boyfriend had a 3some w/ his ex wife %26amp; a girl of her choosing and he ended up being the jealous one because the 2 girls were paying attention to each other and not to him...after that things weren't the same between them...hence the fact she is now his EX wife
pass on the threesome.
if you do not here this what could end up happening:
1. he could want to have more threesomes in the future
2. he will want to choose someone for a second time
3. he could leave you for the girl you choose
4. he will not really do anything with you during this threesome.
my gf actually wants to do this too, BUT.. she wants me, her and another guy... i am also worried it could be akward and all that.. i dont know how i would feel afterwards if i saw some other dude doing her.. i think id feel weird to be around her for awhile in a way.. she kinda got mad at me for not be willing to do this.. but i rather not then feel akward and regret it later.. but good luck though
Just give it a try. Sexuality won't affect your relationship. Most people have done it with more than one person and it's okay to do because your curious and it's good to explore new things in your life that you never tried!
Put it this way, I had a threesome with my husband and a girl which created alot of problems with my husband. He was the one that was jealous. To make a long story short, I am now married to a woman...
It sounds like you plan on having most of the fun with this girl.. You should discuss with bf any boundaries (how far can you go, how far can he go, or is it a free for all). Otherwise, you may get more than you bargained for! Have fun!
pick me? haha it should be great as long as you trust your bf and he feels the same about you. if there isnt enough trust it can tear the relationship apart... if there is enough trust it can actually build it stronger. have fun!
ask yourself this question... How do you think you'd feel seeing your boyfriend inside another female? do you think that you can accept it? I wouldn't want to witness my lover with somebody else... Its all mine! I wouldn't share.
sit down and think. Work out some rules as far as what's acceptable and what isn't. Use a safe word, that way when a line is crossed you have a retreat.
Don't do it you'll regret it in the morning because women can't detach themselves emotionally from the physical act.
wow! have fun!!

Either don't do it(if you have any respect for yourself) or choose an ugly girl.
If you value your relationship - I'd pass on the the threesome. Bad news baby.
i wanna be your boyfriend right about now.
Make sure the girl is not a friend of yours...
do it and have fun. but dont expect a long term relationship with this dude!
film it.
lol i dont think yall will last after that!
Have fun. Don't expect a long term relationship with the guy.
That's about it!! Enjoy!neutrogena
I will be choosing this girl and am not leaving it open to him to decide who it is.I want a threesome with my boyfriend and another girl of my choice...any words of wisdom or advice on this?
If you're both consenting, then sure. Two friends of mine did this with another girl. They're married today, so it doesn't necessarily mean that the relationship will fail just because you bring a third party into it.
However do consider that although you might not feel jealous now, you could during or after the threesome.

Me and my friends are getting sick of our words. any advice?
so me and my friends (in grade 9) are getting sick of our words. when something is bad, mean, or unfair we say ';harsh';. when something is cool, or awesome, we say ';dope'; or ';sweet'; and occasionally ';awesome.'; well we are getting sick of these words, we need some varieation. any advice? thanks :)Me and my friends are getting sick of our words. any advice?
when something is cool say phat pronounced fatMe and my friends are getting sick of our words. any advice?
if something is mean i saw rudeness
if something is sick/harsh i say insane
when i make a mistake, instead of saying crap, for some reason i say outloud to my self, crackers or oh crackers%26lt; idk, i just do.
or if something is like woah i say oh bejebus (Beh-G-Bus)
Use a dictionary? Use old fashioned words instead of slang ones and make new slang. Or invent your own words. Or use slang from another country (eg. if you're American use British words or vice versa)
Me and my friends abbreviate everything, you could try that?
I would suggest finding a thesaurus and looking up synonyms for those words. If you find some really obscure words, it would be fun to puzzle people when you say them. Congrats for wanting to expand your vocabulary!
I have some words that me and my friends say EVERYDAY!
If something is small, we say itty bitty
If something WOWS us we say wowza!!
And if something is gross we say.....YUCKY!
There is more but I forgot...sorry!
Good Luck! :)
well if somethings amaazingly styling; say shnazzy, or bammin. (:

I REALLY hate school and the thought of going there over and over. Any words of encouragement or advice?Thank?
I'd rather not elaborate but there are various reasons why I hate going to school every fcking day over and over again. Its really getting to me and I have SEVERE school anxiety and I always get all depressed. Can anyone say something awesome to make me feel better throughout the year? THANKS! :)......=/I REALLY hate school and the thought of going there over and over. Any words of encouragement or advice?Thank?
dude you're not the only one. but this is how i go through my day: yes i do feel nauseus and i get butterflies in my stomachs wen i go into a class i ';don't like';. but u have to b precise, what part of school don't u like. my high school has stupid people, who basically have no lives, bullying other people and gossip blah blah blah...just think about college..how wonderful it would be wen u get into that ivy leauge or dream college, then its just the hard work u have to focus on. seriously. im in my junior yr in high school and i can't believe i've made it this far. chillax. think about the future. and u have to understand that this is not gnna last forever =]I REALLY hate school and the thought of going there over and over.

I would rather you elaborate. Look forward to a new day, everyday. Think of going to school as seeing your friends and learning new things. We all hate school, well most of us do. I also hate school, but what can I do about it? Nothing, but to make it a little bit more colorful. Look at it on a bright side, you go to school to learn and possibly just because you want a good career in the future, so spend this time wisely and study hard! Try to see what your problems are, whether it be school work, friendships, etc.., there's always a way around it. I'd like to give an advice that would encourage you, but well, you really didn't point out why you hate school. So these few keystrokes of encouragement are just an assumption made by me that it's either school work or friendships that you're dealing with in school. Good luck with everything.
you seem kind of stubborn, how are we supposed to help you if we don't even know what the problem is?
ooooohhh, acaaaddeemiicss, suck it up
maybe its something else like your diet and not school : /

Pregnancy woes...could use some words of comfort or advice?
Hi ladies,
I'm 17 weeks pregnant. I'm excited about the baby, but have been feeling pretty down about what this is doing to my appearance and our sex life. My skin has rashes and breakouts, my hair is uncooperative, and my gums are a wreck. I'm also not far enough along to look obviously pregnant; instead I just look fat. Doesn't really help that my hubby just lost 50 lbs, and I'm getting bigger while he gets smaller. Anytime the people close to me comment that I'm ';showing';, it makes me self-conscious. This, of course, makes me feel insanely guilty because the expectations are that pregnant women be radiantly happy and selfless at all times.
On top of that, I had heavy spotting after the last time we had sex. Doctor said we could try again, but I feel sick at the idea that I'll bleed more which makes it hard to get into it. On the other hand, not having sex for 5 months is going to be hard on our relationship. Please help...feeling sad and unsure about this whole thing. ThanksPregnancy woes...could use some words of comfort or advice?
I think almost every woman goes through at one point or another what you are feeling. I felt as you did when I was 15-18 weeks pregnant. I just looked chubby %26amp; not pregnant. I disliked looking at myself in the mirror. As the weeks went by I just snapped out of it %26amp; now I am enjoying my pregnancy. I will deal with the weight loss once I have my baby boy. The changes your body goes through are bitter-sweet in my opinion. It's wonderful that a little baby is growing inside of you but also depressing on what this is causing to your body- lol. My husband %26amp; I have been very paranoid about sex since I came out pregnant. We don't have sex very often but do occassionally. Just keep constant communication %26amp; show affection %26amp; that is currently working for both of us. Remember this is just temporary.... Good luck %26amp; congrats! :o)Pregnancy woes...could use some words of comfort or advice?
dont worry everyone feels self conscious about the middle showing...r u wearing maternity clothes? they usually help make you look pregnant. and in a few weeks you will be obviously pregnant and will feel better.as for the sex if the doctor says its ok then go for it, my husband and i had the same thing and it took a night where he truely made me feel great and sexy for me to try again but it was worth it. also take advantage of not showing too much because once you do its harder to have fun sex.
focus on your baby and enjoy this time in your life its really the only time you are congratulated and grateful for a big belly...just think the bigger the belly the healthier the baby!
relax and enjoy!
cheer up. everything will b better once the baby comes. just make sure that u eat enuff, and do things that make YOU happy. stop worrying about everyone else and worry about you.
remember that u are important too, n focus on that, and also on the health of the baby.
eat well, excerise each day, and take each day one day at a time.
Pamper your self, with sweet smelling lotions and potions, and worry about nutten. If the rashes are being a problem, ask the doc what does he suggest, and go with that.
be well..
i was somewhat in your shoes hun...put it this way... I was 130lbs when i got pregnant and now i am 37 weeks...i weigh 217!!!!!!! I have never been in the double digits in oants in my life...stretch marks are unreal and im in so much pain from the swelling...but look at it this way...there is a mericle inside you and that mericle is causing the marks and the pain...and to me thats just beautiful...knowing that this mericle is healthy and strong...just look at it as those marks are from something that is completly yours, and yes the sex has been hard for my husband and i also...he gets so frusterated because im not in the mood and i spotted for a while like you...sometimes i just had to suck it up and satisfy him...try doing it in lighter ways like lay on your side and let him do his thang...its much more comfortable on you and not less plesurable for the man....good luck hun and just keep your head up

Can someone give me some words of comfort and advice about standing up in class and talking?
You see I have this presentation in class about what I want to do for a career, and what college I want to got to after high school. And I have to present it to my class tomorrow. I am trying to keep my self calm and collect about this whole situation. But I don't like that feeling of being nervous and have those jitters. I was thinking should I not do the presentation. but I will get a bad grade and my teacher will hate me. And I don't want that. I am so scared I have been trying for years to get rid of this fear of crowds but I can't and I all ways back out at the last minute.Can someone give me some words of comfort and advice about standing up in class and talking?
I had this problem too, until some 3 years ago.
Then I started thinking: ''These people in the class/audience are nothing better than me. Moreover, I am the best here and everyone should envy me. The teacher is better than me only in some fields, and it is ME who rocks in all other fields, so I should not be afraid of anything. They should be afraid of me.''
That's the way you should think.
I apply it now in job interviews, and it works.
;)Can someone give me some words of comfort and advice about standing up in class and talking?
SAME HERE:
Only im not afraid of speaking up, it's just my face gets all red like a tomato and my friends keep laughing at me, it soo sucks, my mum had the same thing and she said it never went away sooo :[ fo me.
YOU:
should just get up and do it no matter what WHO CARES???
NOBODY'S GONNA SLAP YOU ON THE FACE.
It usually calms me down when i look realy good that day so that i wont be afraid of people talking about me during the presentation.:]
We used to have ';impromptu'; book reports. The teacher picked a name out of a hat and that person had to get up and give a mini book report stating, the stories main character, the setting, and how they liked the book so far. No preparation at all. Your presentation can be short and sweet, state only facts and stick to your notes. Standing in front of the class is really tough for some people, just remember once it is over you've taken a giant step forward. These are your classmates and they all share your uncertainty. I know this is easier said than done, and I wish you good luck.
1) Read your presentation over and over again so that when you're reading it in class you won't have to keep looking at your notes. You'll get more marks if you can do your presentation without having to continuously look at your sheet.
2) Smile.
3) The other students in class are likely to not care what you're saying because they're busy worrying about when it's their turn.
4)Be confident about your presentation. The more confident you are about it the more confident you'll be about yourself.
Hope I kind of helped.

This is from one of the best answers -
1. Smile. If you smile in front of people, they will be more accepting of you and you will start to notice that they respond to you more positively.
2. Eye Contact. Make sure you keep your head up and looking at the audience - to your left, centre and right consistently.
3. Speak on a slower pace and breath. This will make your more relaxed.
4. Most importantly practice beforehand! I used to practice my speech at least 30 times so I new my material inside out. So if I forget a line when I am actually doing a speech, I am able to compose myself easily and just go onto the next point.

Due tomorrow...any words of wisdom or advice..Please answer?
My due date is tomorrow, and I know that due dates are just estimates but Im so tired and sick Im ready for it to be over. I had to go in and get some testing done yesterday because of some severe swelling in my feet and ankles. They took blood and the doctor said that there was a little bit of protein in my urine. so they took more urine as well. He said he would have the on call doctor take a look at the results and call me with the result since its a saturday and he wont be in the office. I have not heard anything yet. This is my fourth pregnancy and Im just over exhausted since all of my kids were born nice and healthy before 39 weeks. Im feeling really discouraged because I dont want to work and stand on my feet for another 8 hour shift, My pelvis feels like its breaking in half, Im extremely worn out, and I hate having tree trunks for legs. Does anyone have any suggestions to help get labor started? Anything that worked for you? Even some uplifting words lol? Thanks in advance!
Oh and also Im 3cm dilated, 60%effaced, and the babys head is stationed at a +2 the doctor said.Due tomorrow...any words of wisdom or advice..Please answer?
I have never made it to the 40 weeks point so i can't imagine how much you're really ready for this to be over!! I am already ready. You're still working?! You're crazy! lol. If you would like to induce labor naturally good ways are walking, squatting, bouncing on the excersize ball, eating pineapple or drinking pineapple juice, acupressure, sex (whos in the mood at 40 weeks?) and nipple stimulation. Good luck, I hope you go in tonight!Due tomorrow...any words of wisdom or advice..Please answer?
I wish you the best of luck nothing helped me go into labour with my 1st i was 2 weeks overdue with him.... I hope its not much longer for ya!! Good Luck!! Hopefully soon you will have your little baby in your arms!
AAaawwwww!!!! Good Luck and control your breathing! CONGRATS!!!!!
Good Luck and Congrats
Oh i feel so sorry for you, at least your time is up, i've still got 7 weeks to go and i'm sick and tired of being pregnant.
Buy some evening primrose capsules and insert two vaginally at night and swallow two during the day, that'll help ripen your cervix.
Drink raspberry leaf tea, it tones up your uterus but it can also start off contractions.
Squatting, skipping and bouncing on a ball can help your baby engage.
Eating spicey food, pineapple or kiwi can start off labour because of the enzymes in the foods.
Nipple stimulation, multiple orgasms and sex can all help too.
Drinking alot of water and walking loads can help too!

Hurray for you, I spent 22 years grate life I was Army .. I Have had friends in Cost Guard they all loved it ....
Dont drop the soap.
in all seriousness Good Luck and thanks for serving your country.
I'm joining the Coast Guard too. But not the reserves. I leave in Sept. From my husband who is in the navy told me. To prepare for boot camp. Run, puchups, setups, start saying yes sir and no sir to people. Good luck to you.
Recognize that most of us see you as our hero, and are grateful. Don't let the seditious and socialists get you down. Hate-America is not sexy. I'm a teacher, one of those careers that people foolishly try to say is ';heroic';.
No thanks. I don't risk my life like you will be. That takes courage, more than I had. It may not be the same as entering the military.
But you're a better ';man'; than I am. Good luck to you. God keep you safe.
My son was in the Coast Guard for 4 years. There are only 30 job titles--- all technical (the other services, being much larger, have about 4,000 %26amp; not all technical) what this means is that you have the opportunity to get excellent training for many jobs in the civilian world, Good luck %26amp; God bless to you and all our service men and women.
Thank you for serving!
Thank you for serving the people of the United States. I wish you all the best!
Hell have fun I guess. Take small boats if you can versus cutter duty. Small crew, fast boats, hands on rescue work. Cutters suck, might as well join the navy %26amp; get less space.
Read the contracts carefully before signing them. If recruiters promise you something, get it in writing. They are masters at bait %26amp; switch.
i can't answer your ?? sorry.. i have a ??? for u
is it easy to get in...? is the $$$ decent?
please add anything else that you feel is important...
good for you for joining a male dominated field... it can be tough
working with all men (i know from exp) but never let them see ya sweat and never let ur guard down... some men will try and test you... esp try to hit on you....
all da best!!!!!!!!
Make sure you pay attention when they teach you how to use your pants as flotation device. No joke, it might save your live one day.
Remember, you don't have to like a person who is a higher rank than you, and you don't have to respect them, but you do have to respect the uniform they wear and the rank they hold, because they earned that rank.
Tread lightly, you will come across people (NCO's and Officers) who you just don't like, but remember those words. A good friend of mine gave them to me, and I have used them well.
Good luck to you...also remember, basic training is for a very short time, once you are out, it is just a job. A job to be proud of.beauty advice

I need alot of words of wisdom and advice please?!?
I am being induced Sunday night/ Monday morning. I will be 5 days over my due date on Monday. I go in to have the gel put on Sunday night and then Monday morning at 4am my doc said he will break my water. As of last Monday I was only %60 effaced and not dilated any! He does not seem worried about anything but I am! I here about all these people having emergency C sections that were induced. I dont want to go through ALL of that and then have extreme complications. This is my first. Anything to make me feel better?I need alot of words of wisdom and advice please?!?
I have been induced 3 times out of the 6. The reason for two of them is that they were 12 days overdue, the reason for the other was that my water broke and I still had no contractions 9 hours later. I was induced with the gel once, on one of the 12 day overs, as my cervix was not fully effaced, and hardly dilated. None of the inductions ended in a C-section, actually neither did any of my other births. I think that since you are overdue, everything will go ok. I think that C-sections due to induction are far more likely to happen when they try to induce labor too early (like in the instance of high blood pressure, or for other medical reasons). I will be wishing you all of the best. You do however have to go into it realizing that even if you weren't induced, there is always a chance of ending in a C-section no matter what.I need alot of words of wisdom and advice please?!?
calm down stress can cause labor to drag on, just relax and let the doctors do there job they know what they are doing. my sister had the same problem as you and she had a natural and quick labor and they are both doing fine. get all the rest you can cause you'll need to be rested have your husband massage you and take lots of naps. sometimes even just a cuddling session will calm you.
Refuse the induction. Unless the baby is stressed there really isn't any reason for it. Due dates are only accurate plus or minus 2 weeks, so you may not actually be over due. I'd tell him you want to wait another week and see. Then let him induce. Doctors like to rush things because an induction is easy to schedule, but this is your body. If you don't feel right about it then don't have it done.
Listen to your doctor they should know what tey are talking about.

I need words of encouragement and advice.?
Im rly good friends with this girl and she didnt know how she felt about me and then i just asked her a few days ago and she decided she didnt. I asked her what she likes about me and she only said ';idk';
so i asked what she didnt like about me and she again only say ';idk';
so i said ';so do u think theres any chance of us happening?'; and she said ';i rly dont think so'; but im in love wit her and we've been talking on the phone and txting n shes an extremely flirty girl but im sick of getting lead on by her and then coming to realization that she dosent wanna go out wit me so i start feeling terrible
i need some encouragement and advice to get her out of my head but i still rly want her as just a friend any advice???I need words of encouragement and advice.?
I would suggest rebuilding the friendship again. Don't talk to her for a few days so you can give her some space and let her (and you) think. Then, maybe talk to her, but don't bring up about any ';love'; stuff. Then, when you really think she's ready (and you're ready) to ask her. It's best if it has been a few months before you ask her those questions again.
Good luck!I need words of encouragement and advice.?
Advice #1 : Learn how to write in English. How old are you anyway? 12? If you are, then sorry! You麓ll learn soon.
Advice #2 : Don麓t let her use you. She麓s flirty... okay!
So she is not the right person for you. Say good bye and walk away.
If she doesn麓t think that you will get anywhere, then she won麓t let it happen...
You deserve better! You麓ll have plenty of friends who care for you, you don麓t need her!
Don't worry.
she's not girlfriend material.
Focus on the things that you don't like about her.
Try to focus on the good things about other girls that you could possibly like.
She isn't worth your time if she's going to act like this.
Good Luckk.
well im not sure how old she is but she might not know what or who she wants, if shes extremely flirty than she probably cant help it if she leads you on
maybe if you dont talk to her alot than your feelings will slowly go away
so i asked what she didnt like about me and she again only say ';idk';
so i said ';so do u think theres any chance of us happening?'; and she said ';i rly dont think so'; but im in love wit her and we've been talking on the phone and txting n shes an extremely flirty girl but im sick of getting lead on by her and then coming to realization that she dosent wanna go out wit me so i start feeling terrible

Any words of encouragement or advice for my situation?
I graduated with my A.A this year.I hoped to further my Education at a 4 year school this Fall but due to financial difficulties and a husband who would rather go clubbing 3 times a week and help his mom with her bills and buy a car than help me pay my tuition,I will not be attending.I have always been strong and ambitious.I always took my Education seriously.I now feel hopeless and discouraged.I also have a baby on the way.I did not plan my life to turn out this way.The only thing that keeps me going is knowing that I was given the gift of motherhood and I will soon be showered with unconditional love by my little one.Any words of encouragement or advice for my situation?
Congratulations on your graduation and your upcoming bundle of joy!
I know this situation can be stressful, but have you talked to your husband about it?
I can understand your frustration with your husband, but he may have good motives for his actions.
Perhaps he feels that with a baby on the way school is not a priority. He may be going out clubbing to enjoy his last moments before becoming a father, and I think it's great that he's supporting his mother. This shows he's a family man, and hopefully he will do the same for you when you are the mother of his child (which is soon!) Also, the car may seem extravagant, but it may also be part of preparing for your family, so maybe ask him if this was the case.
If you haven't already, try to explain to your husband how important your education is to you. It may be difficult to go back to school until your child is a little older, but which is help in caring for the child, it is definitely possible. Tell him how important this is to you and that you feel discouraged. Tell him you are concerned about some of the decisions he's been making and that you would like to know what his priorities are. As the mother of his child, you should definitely be somewhere on the top of the list!Any words of encouragement or advice for my situation?
You have the power to control your own life. Everything you have thought and done up to now has brought these events into your life. Everything you are doing now is planning your future for you. Try applying for student loans or grants to further your education. I was able to get some great aid for my last 2 years of school. Took me 10 years to pay it off but it was worth it.
Try watching ';You Can Heal Your Life'; by Louise Hay and ';The Secret'; by Rhonda Byrne. Both great videos to get your mind on track and remind you that you are the one in control of your life.
There are so many things you can do for money for school. Talk to a school counselor and tell them you have no funds right now and need all the help you can get. As for your hubby-tell him to grow up and be a man. If you can't get him to help you over his own mama you need to give him a reality check. Seriously, when a man has a family the family comes first-not the parents. Good luck to you and don't give up on that education-
You just make sure that you keep going on with your education. It is wonderful that you have your A.A. and you are a soon to be mother. I've been in a very similar situation but now my husband is more mature and I am working on my Masters degree. I even have a beautiful 15 month old. Don't feel hopeless and don't feel discouraged. You can do it because I did!
yes i was crying 2 days ago for the same situation my husband rather help his sister pay her tuition than help me ! now he told me to get a job ! is so stupid that you can even count with the person you love and thought that they wil be by your side supporting you 100%. hang in there! at least you have you A.A i don't have none! congrats for your baby! try to talk to him to see if he help you! good luck
Motherhood is great but it's not going to pay the bills. Neither will your husband if he doesn't get his act together. If you want to go to school apply for grants and aid. There is always a way to do it. Good luck.
There are ways to fund your tuition so don't give up.
Maybe you want to focus on the baby right now...but there is a way.
Look for programs and scholarships that you can qualify for.
You can do it !! I know you will !
Your problems seem to start and end with your husband, maybe you should get rid of him and make a future for you and your child alone, and continue with your studies. Good luck.
you sound just like my brother. my mom wont sign a loan for school for him so he is thinking of giving up. don't let anyone stand in your way you do what you want to do follow your dreams.
If you work at a college your tuition is discounted, sometimes free, look for a job at a school.
Get a loan to go to school with....and once you have completed your education...get a job and leave your immature husband....
I suggest that you get a job and attempt to pay your own tutition.
grant time
Fill out a fafsa form and see if you can get money.
Congrats on your degree. Don't blame your husband for you not continuing though, not his fault. It is a huge priviledge to be able to afford or have access to a higher education, not a need or requirement.
Since you are having a baby you will likely qualify for federal grants and loans. You only have a couple more years of school so you won't end up in very much debt. I would go that route if you really want to continue.
Seriously, if you want to continue school you will.
BTW - children do not shower you with love...lol....they suck the life out of you then give you JUST enough love to make it balance out.
Keep ur head up girl, try not to worry or stress yourself over what has happened, just know that in time u will have your baby and hopefully when the baby is older u will be able to go back and do the things that u wanted to do, yes life can throw a curve ball in your way sometimes, and sometimes ur plans has to go on hold but with commitment, ,and perseverance u can and will make it, don't give up on ur dreams, just try again after the baby comes, and work even harder at making it come through for u.GL to you!
Wow, I would be very sad and feeling the same way that you do. I think that is great that you have a little one on the way and yes that will be unconditional and it will be great for you to feel that with your baby. Congrats on getting your AA that is a great accomplishment. I used to be with someone like that and did not really care about my college and put everything else in front of him so I ended it. I think it is sad that your husband isn't supportive and would rather be a mamma's boy than be your solid rock that you need in your life. I think you need to sit down and talk with your husband and explain to him how you are feeling and what is on your heart because if you don't then you will always regret talking to him about it. He won't be able to fix it unless you talk with him and let him know how you feel! You can still be ambititous so get out there and find ways to get to college. Take care!! :)
First, expect the shower to be cold. Yes, babies (and children in general) will love you unconditionally, but they are selfish and demanding too. They don't understand your needs, only their wants.
Question: You say you didn't plan your life to turn out this way... did you PLAN differently? If you didn't have a plan, you are right where you put yourself. BUT, your life hasn't ';turned out'; at all, yet. You're not finished. Stick to your guns and never give up on something better. And get the moron out of the clubs, he's going to be a father. He should start acting like one...

i was abused as a child developed ocd and then when l i hit 20 i went to hospital and suffered a huge trauma in there. i developed ptsd. my life became a mess, dropped out of uni, stopped modelling, dancing all the things me has a young person did. life was a huge fog of anxiety until now.
im 25-im getting over my pstd and ocd. you'd think id be happy but im not. why-because my life stopped at 20. i dont really know who i am now. who im supposed to be at 25. i have to start again. my mum says im still young enough too but i feel old. also i want to change my my image completely. i want to 4get the abused girl i was and catch up on the things i missed the past 5 years like go travelling, go on dates, go clubbing, wear mini skirts and feel sexy (not a big deal to people i know but because of my past would a be a huge truimph to me) in fact i want to change my image completely so im a totally different girl from who i was so why do i feel to old to do to this. am i ?Hard to fit what i want to say in a question of 1000 words but really need some advice?
hell love, for a minuet i thought i had posted that question, with out realiseing it.i am 46yrs young i too was abused from 5yrs -13yrs , i too have ocd . and other mantal health issues all coming from what i call the dark years. you will never be that little girl again (thank god i hear you say) you wont either be the girl who messed up(through no fault of yours) but the young woman you are now, well this is a new ball game. you dont walk around with a sign that states you have been abused, only the ones you choose to tell will know this ok ,,you must get this right in the front of your mind. now,for every day you spend not being the person you would like to be. your abuser still has that hold on you,you are letting them still abuse you and they dont even know it!! now if you get out ,dress how you want to. hold your head up high,start this new life you will infact be giving that person the v sign. the v being for VICTORY because you will be in charge in the driving seat so to speak.every step towards your new you will be one more victorious,step. you see these people can defile our bodies , play with our minds but becaues we survived,becaues( even with ocd and all the rest) we are still around to tell our story. we are winners. and can be just as good as the girl next to you at the bar.go on and change your image if you want to,go out and get that new wardrobe of clothes, find that all important new job. then look in the mirror girl because youve won!!! im not saying it will work overnite , it will take time rome wasnt built in a day. but enjoy every minuet you will be like a beautyful butterfly coming from the cocoon every thing else will fall in place HONEST.one last thing trust you mum cause us mums only have your best interest at heart .one step at a time baby girl xxHard to fit what i want to say in a question of 1000 words but really need some advice?
You feel too old because of your experiences. BUT.........you are not too old..........in fact I would think that these days 25 is just about the right age :-) Now..........if it was me wanting what you do I know I would be too old because I am 53!
So, find your courage..........you obviously have some......and go for it. Might not help but when I was a lot younger I read a book and grasped its title as a motto. It was called ';Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway';
No stop thinking about it and just do it!!
The only thing holding you back now is you :)
you're never too old. you probably feel that way because when you ';lost'; those 5 years, you probably felt like life was accelerating and felt like it left you well past your young adulthood. this doesn't have to be true. if you're trying to start over, sometimes the best thing to do is to face everything that you want to change. don't let abuse fester. make sure all your emotional wounds are healed, and then do some soul searching. find out, not even so much who you want to be, but who you truly are deep down inside, and that is definitely not an abused, ocd, pstd person. those were things that happened, but they do not define you. pray about it and seek out who you really are. never try to be some idealistic person you're not. you would be surprised great a person you are deep down. God bless and i hope this helps!
i see a lot of me in your question. i had it rough for the most part of it. looked like a dark cloud was always over me, and it was always raining on me and not on others. i still fight the feeling that i belong to a museum, yet am not even 23.
i think that in your heart of hearts you know what to do. you gave an answer to your own question. that you need to go clubbing, wear mini skirts......whats stopping you? i'll tell you what: fear of the unknown. an dthat is the hardest to conquer. yet a day a time, a step at a time, thats all it takes. before you know it, you are there and you wonder how you ever managed to live all your life without it.
you've already taken the first step, talkning about it, and admitting that there is a problem. so how about you take the next step? love your self and nurture the inner you to be confident in yourself/
take yourself out to dinner, lunch, a walk in the park, lotsa me-time. and from me -time, hit the club in that mini skirt and that sexy smile......
.a journey of a thousand miles begins with one step, you've taken the first one, go for it gal, a step at a time. you dont do it all overnight otherwise if it fails you come crashing and wont have much strength to give it another go....so one day at a time
hun, life begins at 40 anyway, so you are yet to be born. live it up gal...............cheers
Thank you for sharing what is going on with you at present, you mention that you dropped out of uni, stopped modelling and dancing and wish to forget the past experiences of hospital and catch up on things to change your image, although the image that would be a huge triumph appears to be the way you were. You are a product of your past but by sharing and seeking help hopefully you do not have to be a prisoner of it. Once again thank you for sharing and hopefully you will find the necessary assistance to allow you to repair yourself.
