Open Question: My boyfriend lying to me about smoking?

I started dating my boyfriend 2 years ago n he lived in jersey city and I lived in pa so it was kinda long-distance relationship but we adore each other a lot n he would arrive every month from nj to look me,brought me expensive gifts and last month he even told his parents abt it and also proposed me which i accepted it.On our first anniversary(of dating) I found out tht he use to lie to me and smoked! And when i told me that y he lied to me every thiz tym about smoking?He said,"he doesnt do it often but since u dnt like it i would cease doing it".I told him that it wasnt abt smoking it was about him lying to me and he said he wouldnt break my trust next time and would cease smoking! adding that,I would break-up with him the next time he would do tht. After that we use to meet regularly after every 3 or 4 weeks bt everytime,we met and i would hug him ,i smelled the cigrattes and everytime i ask him he would make excuses saying that I dnt smoke and that i swear on u! He would say his room-mates smoke that's y i smelled it! But 2 dayz ago,I went to his job (in nj) to give him a surprise and i was shocked to look him smoking outside his store!! When i told him that did u smoke pretending that i didn't look him he sweared on me that he didn't.And when I told him that i saw him smoking he said that his been smoking from 10 months and he tried to quit but he couldnt the reason he didnt tell me was because he didnt wanted to lose me! I knw he loves me a lot and i guess i adore him more than he does but i dnt knw what to do ?should i forgive him? is my bf trustworthy? I been really upset and depressed abt it I will really appreciate some good guidelines or should i say some motivation to make the right decision?

Open Question: Any NORMAL diet plans out there?!!?

Hello, please excuse my foul language. But I really need like a new diet plan; sleepy of seeing the same old, same old ... Is there any diet plan out there that doesn't require you to count calories, or tells you a whole list of foods that YOU should eat? I don't need every this rubbish. I just need a simple diet plan that can be followed not only on a daily basis, but like FOREVER. Before answering this question, please make sure that YOU yourself followed this diet plan, and are willing to share it with others. Please make sure it works, and it's SIMPLE. Very simple where to the point anybody can follow it. I don't want calories, certain foods you have to eat, when to exercise. Just something simple that you've done, and it actually worked. Also, make sure to type in your experience, your starting weight, and how you lost the weight. Thank you! ;) I'm 15 years old, and I think my weight is around 105 pounds. I really need a simple diet. Thx for the answer down there v.v The other person who answered, how do you count calories? Can you be alittle bit more specific ... Thx ^^

Open Question: Did you know hitler supported the talmud?

the babylonian pagans infiltrated judaism and created fake judaism and the talmud and kabbala which is every paganism disguised as judaism . The fake jews then became the pharisees and killed mashiach . Then the fake jews created gnosticism and the catholic church and the fake christians . Then the fake jews created the illuminati and sex cults.Then the fake jews created the rothschilds and vlad dracula and the eastern european dictatorships . Then the fake jews chose a rothschild illegitimate named Hitler to kill the real jews so the fake jews could gain from it and have an excuse to create a zionist fake jew country . Then the fake jews created corporations , communism , and nazism and they made the nazis arrive to the us and create the nazi fake jew establishments of monsanto and pharmaceutical company.Then the fake jews got their henchman hitler to kill the real jews and to force them to accept the pagan talmud and to trick them into denying mashiach.Hitler wanted to trick the real jews into accepting the doctrine of the fake jews , the pagan talmud: "As a matter of fact, the Talmud is not a book that lays down principles according to which the individual should prepare for the life to arrive. It only furnishes rules for a practical and convenient life in this world." Hitler loved the talmud , because it was written by fake jews like him . However , just like the catholic church and the lawless mithraic fake christians , he hated the torah , referring to it as satan's book . Hitler hated the real jews , and he hated torah . But he loved the fake jews , and loved the talmud . After the zionists used the nazis to send real jews to their death in the holocaust because they stood in the way of satan's new world order , and then the zionists pretended to be against nazism tlo create the satanic zionist state of israel which opresses the real jews . Once the zionists pretended to be against nazism , they sent more jews to their death in a 2nd holocaust after world war II , and they justified this by framing them and accusing them of nazism . Once the public was tricked into thinking jews were nazis , they would kill even more jews every the while inciting antisemitism . I believe jews are still being killed by germany and falsely accused of nazism .By pretending to be jews , the freemasons scapegoat every the pagan atrocities on to the holy jewish people . May we every live by torah , and praise YHWH whose aspect is yahushuwah hamashiach who was incarnated at netzareth.

Open Question: I need excuses for acting crazy?

Legit excuses now, although I'm sure plenty of you are ready to jump on a chance to make a witty joke. xD But really. If someone was acting crazy ... and was afraid to say they were drunk ...

Open Question: am i overreacting if I consider breaking up w/ my bf over porn?

My boyfriend and I have been dating for a year and a half now and I adore him with every my heart. He has problems SHOWING me he cares however he does verbalize his affection to me on a daily or so basis. We have been having problems for a while which I think are totally normal but we have ALWAYS had issues with our sex life. I am trying to meet him somewhere in the middle and he has been helping me with feeling insecure when we have sex. Recently i have been trying SO difficult to fix that problem by asking for sex or hinting i'd like to and every time he has an excuse like " i don't feel good right now" or "i'm sleepy". Ok fine, to be fair, he does have sleeping issues and he complains about being sick almost every other day it seems like so I just give him the benefit of the doubt. In the past year i've caught him masturbating to porn on his computer 4 times that I recollect. I've told him previously that it bothers me, its something i cant help but feel very insecure with myself and i sob every time. He just says Its natural and I am blowing this WAY out of proportion and i shouldn't feel that way. So I suggested a way to make me glad : you can watch porn whenever you want as many times as you want as long as I'm not home. If I am home, you can either ask me first or masturbate without the help of pictures, video, etc. He could even ask me to JOIN in on watching the porn. I thought this was a reasonable solution. I don't know how many times I have to tell him "this makes me feel..." and so on. But i caught him again today and I told him we should TAKE A BREAK. I dont WANT to take a break but this seems like the only solution to let me have some piece of mind and to cease the hurt feeling I carry around every the time wondering if he is watching some other girl while i'm buying us food at the grocery store. I know that cheating and watching porn are not equivalent but I dont look why if he is doing something he can help, that he wouldnt just do it less or stick to my solution because of the simple fact that I dislike it, it makes me unhappy, insecure and every those other negative feelings it brings up. Every time i share my thoughts with him he makes up any excuse (which he calls reasons) to make me feel like this is my fault and he says "its normal, like breathing or eating" Its BULL is what it is. I'm not telling him to cease or to not look at porn. I just want my Boyfriend to adore me and have the decency to include me and my feelings. If he is not willing to compromise i look no other way then the front door.

Open Question: How can I stop losing my temper with my two year old?

My daughter is three in May this year and is going through the terrible twos with a vengeance!! She's a lovely girl and extremely bright but has a foul temper and when she doesn't receive what she wants she screams bloody murder and tells me she doesn't like me, lately things have started to arrive to a head and when she's having a tantrum I try to walk away from her but she follows me screaming and grabs my clothing to tug me back, I have tried to count to ten but tonight I was putting her to bed when she started acting up, getting back out of bed, demanding a drink (she had just had one) and telling me to move her cup to her desk, when I refused she threw herself about and the screaming started, I went to walk away and she came after me....I'm ashamed to say I lost my temper and really shouted at her, I feel absolutely horrible and ashamed but it is becoming harder to be calm when she is in my face every the time. She has been horrible for the last three days, saying nasty things to me like go away I don't like you and I think it has got on top of me but it doesn't excuse my shouting at her. It's not the first time it has happened and I'm so scared that I am going to damage her mentally or make her hate me. My husband is fantastic with her but he plays football on a Monday night so I put her to bed on my possess tonight, usually we do it together without incident. Please can anyone tell me ways to cease losing my temper with her?

Open Question: Do you think I was too harsh on him?!?

Me, one of my girlfriend's and her guy pal were sitting at a table. There's this guy who's friends with the guy pal, that I kinda have a thing for. They were talking about him, how he was acting shy and everything when i was around, and how he was blushing and bla blaa and not himself cause he's usually confident. The guy pal was showing me a conversation between him and that guy on his phone. It didn't say much so I clicked older messages, and he snatched the phone away from me. I took it back and wanted to read the older messages but there was nothing on it.. So I gave it back to him. He then went to another girl and said 'moseyb hadthee' , which is arabic, and in english means, 'she's trouble' but it's more insulting than the english term, like how in arabic, dog is insulting but in english it isnt. So I told him in a serious tone, 'excuse me, do not call me that. do you think I don't understand arabic? That's not nice.' and he said it was a 'misunderstanding' and that it was a joke. I don't find it a joke because he said it in arabic so I couldn't understand, if it was why didn't he say it in english so I could hear? So after that I got a bit mad, so I left. Do you think I'm too harsh cause everyone is making it seem like I am !

Open Question: Does he want to get more serious or end things?

A group of us from college went together snowboarding on holidays. Throughout the 8 days on the trip i spent most of my time with this guy. He taught me how to snowboard, we went to dinner together and we were with each other in the nightclubs etc. On the plane on the way back he turned around to me and said "look once we receive back home i don't want you to feel you have to find excuses to end this like if you don't want to continue just say so because i value your friendship so much." I'm really confused because i don't know if this means he wants to go back to just being friends or he is just being insecure and needs me to tell him i want to continue seeing him.

Open Question: What do I do, Feel like I'm going to lose my mind!?

I'm 18, I have an almost 11 month old daughter. Her dad is 20, and isn't really involved in her life, but his parents are (He still lives with them). They pick her up every weekend and bring her home, but every time she comes home she's EXHAUSTED, to the point I can look the dark bags below her eyes. She also comes home hungry, when we give her lunch/snack (Depending on the time) She picks up handfuls and stuffs her mouth which is unusual for her. They're very rude to my boyfriend who I've been with for almost a year. Yesterday I had to go to the store and him and my best pal were home, and my daughters grandparents would not let my boyfriend or pal hold her at every. They bought the wrong size diapers (They bought 4, she's been in 5 for a few months, and is almost ready to go up another size) I have told them that she is in size 5 many times, That she no longer eats baby food, or rice cereal, that she eats whatever we eat, and they still brought me over about 10 - 15 jars of food, some yogurt, Milk and a bag of rice cereal, and then told my boyfriend when he went to put the milk and yogurt in the fridge "Not to eat/drink that because it's for the baby." I know what food is for my daughter, and I'm a big girl, out of the 11 months, that's probably the most they've bought. I had given her some uncooked baby carrots, and they brought me back a baby gate (I just moved and really needed one) and her grandmother got every upset saying she couldn't eat the carrot because she has no teeth (She has 4 of them actually) I just don't know what to do. Her dad doesn't even spend time with her, his girlfriend of about 6 months does most stuff, they don't follow my schedule or anything even though I let them know of EVERY change. Her dad smokes weed when she's there, and I've even heard of him drinking, It's getting to the point I made up an excuse to keep her home next weekend just because I'm scared to send her there :( She got home at about 4 yesterday, and since then she's been right attached to me, eating or sleeping, normally she has one nap around noon, but today she has had about 4 naps, every about an hour long. I don't know what to do, When my pal told them about not being able to take her next weekend since I didn't think they'd be here when I got home, they said that because of that they receive her an extra day or two the next weekend... I don't know how to deal with this. Is there any way I can receive the point across, they're still treating her like she's 6 months old, but not giving her the proper naps, They don't hear to me just because I'm 18. To K- Let ME receive this straight, at 11 months old, yes they do need a schedule or routine are you even a parent What nice of grandparent doesn't know what size diapers, and what food their grandchild eats. The grandparents pick her up and such because her dad refuses to talk to me, to pick her up/drop her off. So yes, them buying stuff is a huge deal, because their son doesn't do anything but smoke weed, and obviously him smoking weed also means he's not spending time with her... They are not a free baby sitter, because I don't NEED them to take her, I let them because she was suppose to be seeing her dad as I mentioned HE STILL LIVES WITH HIS PARENTS. By the time I found out that he wasn't spending time with her they started expecting her every weekend. I don't "Hand my kid off" It's called visitations which I have no choice but to give her dad, and since he lives with his parents, well I'm sure since you know soooo much, you can figur Beauty, 11 month old, + a boyfriend for a year, means I was dating a month BEFORE having my daughter. But nice try :)

Open Question: Can you proofread my short paragraph it's funny!?

It's a satire about Toddlers and Tearas i'm sure there are a lot of mistakes because i suck at writing please let me know! Toddlers and Tiaras Satire My name is Megan Michel my daughter’s name is Amy-Jo Michel. Amy-Jo is extremely talented, and gorgeous from the inside out. She has the three P’s: personality, prettiness, and pizazz. She has competed in pageants every of her life; she loves pageants, I adore pageants. Although she screams and cries backstage every competition, I am almost convinced that she loves pageants. I’m every about the victory and I am very competitive, I adore to win. Whether it involves my daughter skipping a few meals here and there to lose some baby fat for pageant season, or her staying up every hours to rehearse, and then being exhausted for school, winning is a necessity for us. My husband Billy-ray and I even took out a second mortgage for Amy- Jo’s annual participation in the pageant. I will do whatever it takes for me, excuse me, I mean my daughter Amy-Jo to win the pageant.

Open Question: can someone interpret this dream for me?

I just woke up, so, excuse me if this is scattered. I dreamt that i was in a classroom and i felt like i had just walked in from seeing friends because i was laughing when i walked in and i had a pair of shoes and a few items of clothes with me. But, anyways, i can't remember what i was being taught in the classroom or what else was going on. I walked out of the classroom and i went into a locker room. I heard a few girls freaking out and they were saying how the lockers were torn out and that it was turned into a maze. I was now stuck in this maze. I got out of the locker room and next thing i know it, i'm being grabbed by random guys and girls were trying to run out of the back field and were trying to climb up fences and they were being shot at. The ones that weren't dead were being put into cagey box things I was put into one and i recognized A LOT of the girls i was with. I used to go to high school with them. Anyways, i heard more screaming and i looked out from the open area in the cage to look that the other girls were being sprayed in their cages with huge flame hoses. I started freaking out. And then, i decided to start singing and every the girls in my area were singing with me. Then, the guys that had grabbed me before...told me to "close up or else youll receive sprayed. Somehow, every the cages opened and i started running out with every the other girls but, again, people were being shot at. I ALMOST tried to climb the fence but, some girl and i saw an opening in a gate and we ran through that but, then, we found ourselves in an office. Next thing i know it, i find out Ellen DeGeneres is behind every this and she started screaming at us saying we ruined her entire plot. I ran away from her and somebody assigns me to work with some middle eastern guy and i meet the man and he said, "i can keep you...just follow my directions" and it turns out, someone found out he was protecting me and they shot him. And then, i woke up.

Open Question: I desperately need help, I'm heading down a bad path in my life?

So i used to always be a confident dude, even when i was being bullied. I stayed positive and kept my head tall. I didn't care what others thought. It wasn't until two years ago someone asked me if bullying bothers me, I of course said no. Later on I questioned it and said "does bullying bother me and why doesn't it, it should". Then after that moment i questioned it and before long it did start to effect me. I questioned why is it me, why do people hate me. Then I became even more shy then before. I started questioning if i sit proper or if I'm giving someone too much eye contact(so my natural reaction to that is looking away from them when talking). every these new thoughts and more kept accumulated and now i don't have a sense of who i am any more. I fear everything, i fear even getting a job app(even though theres nothing to fear). I fear walking into places and having people whisper or talk bad about me even thought it doesn't matter. I recognize it doesn't matter what others think but I know deep down I'm still judged. This is deeply affecting me because I don't even want to receive a job because i was sexually harassed, bullied at my prior job. That was the most depressing year of my life and i don't want to make college anymore depressing then it has to be. I also started questioning why i didn't have any friends? I did but they never hung out regardless of me offering them. I always joined clubs, sports,etc. but people naturally rejected me. I would say hi or how are you, and thats it. I really didn't know how to progress a conversation any further. Even today in college I noticed a girl that seems nice but I don't want to approach her during my class. She sits two desks away from me, but i don't want to scream across the room HOW ARE YOU like an idiot. She would also question why is this boy now every of sudden introducing himself. When I look girls or guys in public I don't even know how to approach them. I look alot of people walking to class in the morning but i don't know how to strike up conversation without being odd because half the time i run out of things to say or can't think of any. I also make up excuses for things, i know some of these things I am making excuses for but some of them I don't feel in control over. I worry every second i live. In the comments down below don't say MAN UP FOOL, OR cease WORRYING, its easier said then done idiots. If i could cease worrying or man up i would have years ago. I've tried journaling, blogging, browsing internet and i always seem to find good answers but yet i never change. Part of me forgets what was told. Part of me remembers but doings what is told is difficult in the heat of the moment. Its easy for people to say to do something, then to actually do it. What i hate most is people who have never went through an experience like this and give advice. My life is doomed

Open Question: I'm really bad at taking hints. What do you think?

Okay so I have liked this guy for a while. And he is starting to act like he likes me.. These are my hints. - He stares at me A LOT - Talks to me quite a bit. - When I have a conversation with someone else he butts in. - He tries to impress me. - He flirts. And there is this guy that used to push or kick me and when he did kick or push me the guy I like would kick or push the guy that kicked or pushed me. And we did this band thing together and he held my phone for me. And sometimes he will beat levels of mad Birds on my phone. And everyone says he never talks on facebook. But he talks to me. And sometimes he makes excuses to talk to me... So what do you guys think?

Open Question: Was I too harsh with how I confronted his racist comments?

There's a guy at in my college class who made some racist comments about other people. Him and his pal started laughing like it was the funniest thing ever, so I said to them, "that's not silly and what a stupid thing to say." I didn't lift my voice, but I think my tone was somewhat harsh. Although I'm really against what he said, my intention wasn't to shame him, but just to express that I was offended by his comments. He didn't apologize for saying them but he had this embarrassed look on his face. It was then I got the impression that he probably didn't say it out of hostility, (and not trying to make excuses for him, that was just my perception) but more out of thoughtlessness. Like I said, I was upset by his comments but I don't want him to think I hate him, because I don't and I don't think he's a bad guy-just a little ignorant. What should I say to him now and should I have confronted him differently after he made the comments?

Open Question: Why is it that people people believe fully in Darwinism,yet few are aware of the theory of cosmic evolution?

Please take the time to read this. Yes, it is long but you may find it very thought provoking. And please excuse any writing errors, as English is not my primary language. This coming February 12th marks the birth of naturalist C. R.Darwin. His book "Origin of Species," claims that every species of life have over time evolved from a common ancestry through a process called "natural selection.' In essence he claims that your ancestors were once microscopic single celled organisms living in muck.. Although his book was well received by the scientific community it caused a rift among the religious community. The reason is easy to understand. It is nice of difficult imagining your long lost uncle once living in a slimy pond. And regardless of its wide acceptance, it leaves much to be explained. One very impugnable question is just what event caused for this to happen, followed by the question as to just why did it happen, and then as to how it so happened that everything was 100% perfect Modern logic dictates that there can never occur any effect {event} without a cause. While no modern person of science would argue that fact, they are without any answer to just how this effect [ the beginnings of earthly life ] was caused. Simply put, no scientist can offer any absolute causes to what created life to start upon earth. This is best phrased by the greatest mind of modern times→Albert Einstien. Quote↓ "Knowledge of the existence of something we cannot penetrate, of the manifestations of the profoundest reason and the most radiant beauty - it is this knowledge and this emotion that constitute the truly religious attitude; in this sense,I am a deeply religious man. I believe in a God who reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what exists, A human being is part of the whole called by us the universe, a part limited in time and space."(Albert Einstien 1954) My faith is in complete agreement with Einstein's view. As dictated by logic SOMETHING had to cause the perfect conditions for life to thrive and SOMETHING had to cause life to start at every! Yes, i receive ridiculed for my faith; even sent nasty emails informing me of my blatant stupidity. Well, so be it then. Both Einstien and I are dim-wits, while those acclaiming me "retarded," are geniuses. While I do not have the space here [ nor likely the attention span of any answerers ] I will assert myself in the explanation of "Cosmic or Spiritual Evolution." If you carefully read my presumption you may just start to view life differently. Differently in a positive way. Spiritual and Physical evolution happened in tandem. Humans are more than just "thinking globs of flesh." We gipsies believe [ as did Einstien ] that we are "special-perfect." We are one with the universe {the Cosmos}. It is a scientific fact that the atoms comprising we humans are exactly the same as those comprising everything in the universe. So, in that vein of thought, think of evolutions as a "Returning Home.→An Ascent after the Descent. The Descent was aided by principles as principles. The Ascent is being made by individualized centres evolved from the principles. Matter manifests itself in finer and finer forms,and exhibits a greater subservience to energy or force. and energy and force shows a greater degree of "mind," in it. And it is fact that there is "mind" in even the grossest form of matter. This is factual and, what springs from this contains the elements of the "cause," science is searching for. And the Cosmic ( or Spiritual ) Evolution continues and must continue for eons of time. It makes sense that evolution was never and never will be confined along just material lines, but has passed on to the mental/spiritual planes also. I am sure everyone who is still reading this has experienced what we call "deja vu." The key element to gipsy religion is that every is cyclic. This is easily noticeable→ the seasons are the most demonstrative examples of that principle. Even climatic changes show this. At one time Europe and North America were steaming jungles,then ice capped,and now perhaps growing warmer again. Humans are very audacious in seriously believing they are of power to change the planet's climate..! I would like to continue but I know from past lettres that few like to read very much. So I will end with a Christian saying of great symbolic truth. "From dust ye hath arrive forth and onto dust ye shall return." Please, if you can't look what I am presenting; don't just answer me as being a retard. Lol→Einstien,or his atomic essence is everywhere and taking note. :) ☮ ☼ ♥ Ushie Nothing written here is of any plagiarism. And anyways, just what ends would i wish to do so? I am well learned in both psychology and biology. For several years i practiced Psychiatry in New York City. I received my MD in psychoneurology from Johns Hopkins and not one of less intellect. Yes, i can very much understand that this is very difficult to comprehend if not been raised with such from as a child as was I. But even though you may possess high intellect, mocking or denigrating the information I presented shows a lack of sagacity. I would never show such disrespect as i am receiving. every presented is 100% in accord with scientific fact/logic. Just because you may not fully understand it gives you no license to make ridicule. If any of you DO have a BETTER reason as to a "first cause" I would adore to have it explained to me. Confusing it with abiogenesis? This presents the CAUSE perhaps of abiogenesis. You wish to go against scientific logic and declare that an effect can occur without a cause? Well, should you do so, you repudiate every of modern science. Why is it so that those who show the most disrespect or have the most controversial are NEVER able to be emailed? Why? Are you unsure of your statements that you so wish to..hide beneath your suppositions? You know they saying of when you "assume" something.. You make an @ss of yourself and me.

Open Question: pacquiao vs a prime ali?

i think manny would be too much for him lol, ali doesnt have a chin lol i think manny would catch him clean lol and ali would be like "oh snap!" and hit the ground difficult, the ref would count and be like "ali, you better not let this little chinese dude beat ya!!" ali would be like " oh h3ll nah" and catch manny with a good one two to chin but since manny has the best chin of every time, he would just take the shot and finally knock ali out with that sexy manila ice lol, excuse my english, i know im a little bit handicapped mentally but i do my best, who do you think wins??

Open Question: I'm getting concerned because my daughter isn't doing her homework or getting sleep?

You look, i'm a busy man. My daughter spends every of her time playing Runescape on the computer, and she doesn't snooze at night. She makes up excuses at school, none of her work is done, it's ridiculous. I would solve this myself, but I just don't have the time. Tell me, how can I motivate her to do her work and spend less time on the computer?

Open Question: Likely got car stolen?

About 2 months ago, 12/08/11 to be exact my mom's pal had a VW mechanic that did a really good job on his WV and we needed help with ours. He recommend him and my mom took it to the man, he's not a really mechanic that works at a firestone rock. He runs his possess little mechanic place, just a spot he rents out. For the past 2 months he has been giving us so many excuses, from his daughter being at the hospital, to him being in the hospital and a cop impounding his car that had the keys to our VW. My mom told him, "let me receive my car back" because it was supposedly fixed already. He never answered her and would beat around the bush. Last week he told us the car was ready and that he would call us to pick it up, we missed the window because I had class. But the man never called, and my mom has been trying to call back and he ignores her calls. We went to the little mechanic place he has and our VW isn't there anymore, and no one was there anymore. (its like a little ghetto place, broken fence, the office looks abandoned and there were 2 junk cars there) We don't know wtf to do, its been a really weird 2 months with this guy. I called the police dept and told me to write a certified letter and in 3 days they will do something about it. I'm in the process of the writing that letter but I don't think he's going to ''receive'' it. I have full coverage insurance on the car. What should I do? And what would my car insurance cover?

Open Question: Funny.......................?

During one of her daily classes a teacher trying to tutor good manners, asked her students the following question: "Michael, if you were on a date having dinner with a nice young lady, how would you tell her that you have to go to the toilet?" Michael said, "Just a minute I have to go piss, bitch." The teacher responded by saying, "That would be rude and impolite. What about you Peter, how would you say it?" Peter said, "I am sorry, but I really need to go to the lav. I'll be right back." "That's better, but it's still not very nice to say the word lav at the dinner table And you, little Johnny, can you use your brain for once and show us your good manners?" I would say: "Darling, may I please be excused for a moment? I have to shake hands with a very dear pal of mine, whom I wish you'll receive to meet after dinner."

Open Question: Is the concept of unemployment new, or has it been prevalent throughout time?

I'm starting to think that the existence of unemployment because of 'too many people around, and too few jobs to match' can never be a valid excuse. Even a thousand years ago when the world population may have been in only 6 to 7 digits, unemployment was widely prevalent. Am I right?

Open Question: Did I do something wrong or what?

There was a girl that I kinda had a temporary crush on. Well we talked and chatted, and she seemed like an alright person to date. I got her phone # and had a future plan to go out. Well I asked her out last week to have lunch, and she froze and made a silly face (like a weird look then a grin, then a straight look)and looked like she was coming up with an excuse to say no. She told me she was busy and I said okay. Well later I lost interest in her just like that. I went and came up with an excuse of my possess saying that the "hanging out plan" was just that, and I am only wanting to make new friends and sorry for coming off silly. So in another words I told I just wanted to be friends. This time she went silent, and started to look down and her voice went weak. Did I do something wrong?

Resolved Question: my best friend isnt coming to my baby shower!?

I just found out yesterday that my best pal for 8 years now isnt coming to my baby shower! I really dont want to be mad at her but I cant help it. she says she asked for work off over a month ago and her boss is just now telling her she cant receive it off (its this saturday) which is BS and just her excuse because shes very forgetful. I know she never asked for it off until yesterday because my other pal that works there asked me why she asked for work off yesterday for saturday and then remembered it was my baby shower. She expects me to go to everything of hers and is mad when I can and shes getting married this Dec and wants me to plan every of her showers and stuff but I cant afford every of them! so I told her that and she got mad at me. I know Im suppose to be a big part of her life and i really am Im planning her bridal shower but thats it. and I help her with everything! this is my first baby and I really wanted her to be there and now she cant. I cant even believe it she just told me yesterday when I asked so I dont think she was planning to tell me until last minute anyways. how do I keep myself from getting mad at her over this? I know its just a baby shower but it is really important to me! shes going to be the godmother and I was iffy about it before because I dont like her fiancee and dont want him looking after my child if something happened but I trust her 100% with him, but now Im starting to rethink that idea. I dont know why Im so mad about this I know its just a baby shower but it was and is really important to me. =/ I guess Im more mad that she lied and said she asked for it off over a month ago and now she cant go because she really just asked yesterday. But I really dont want to be mad at her! =/ my expectations?! every I wanted was for my best pal to ask for work off to arrive to my baby shower. yes I expected her to be there shes my best pal! I wouldnt miss her baby shower or wedding or anything for the world! but thats every I expected or expect of her! I think its normal to expect your best pal to be at your baby shower..!

Open Question: Someone pleasee proof read my english paragraph!!?

Open Question: What is the best advice you can give to someone who has given up on life but is not suicidal?

I have given up on life in general. I don't want to go into too many details but I have irreversable health problems. And I have a mental illness. My main focus on life at the moment is minimizing the damage. I am in damage control. I have become introverted, paranoid, resentful, smug and am starting to find other people's conversations boring. I have not been able to recover mentally from some bad experiences of the past. And I don't always cooperate with Psychologists/Psychiatrists. Sometimes I think their advice is stupid. I am losing friends because they have had enough of my self-pity. There are days when every I do is look back at the past and feel sorry for myself. And the more people nastily tell me to receive OVER IT! the angrier I become. When people say receive over it, I think it's a sign that they think your problems are trivial. What hypocrites! Sometimes I think their complaints about life are trivial but I don't tell them to receive OVER IT. How can I find the motivation to care about things again? Keep in mind that I have permanent health problems and I have family members who are giving me hell. What is the best advice you can give to someone who has given up on life but is not suicidal? I want to look for answers. Not excuses. I'm in my thirties and am not afraid of dying. I think if I was murdered by someone tomorrow, it could be a blessing in disguise. At least it would be the end of every my problems. God hasn't done much to help. He just sits back and laughs.

Open Question: Why does my chest hurt?

I'm a 22 year old male, haven't gotten much exercise recently because I haven't been feeling well the past 2 months, plus it's winter. (I know that isn't much of an excuse). I smoke but I've clip down to 2 a day or so recently because I'm trying to quit. Also, I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it but I do receive acid reflux sometimes, yet I know what that feels like and this discomfort is different. I also have anxiety and I know that can contribute to weird feelings throughout your body. My main concern is my heart or something serious though. I know asking this online won't replace seeing a doctor in person, which I have seen one recently but they didn't say much. The majority of the aching is on the left side also and somewhat towards the middle of my chest which is why it's making me more nervous. Could anyone maybe give me ideas of what it is. Also my height is about 6'1 or 6'2 and I'm around 240 lbs so I'm a little overweight, but not much I don't think. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks!

Open Question: Could he fancy my younger sister?

Well im living in an estate next to a English guy he is in his 4o's and has been living alone since for as long as i remember when he usually gets a girl she takes advantage of him . He is like a brother to me and my husband and does have a big big heart but its just ever since he met my sister at my husbands 40th he has been obsessed with her my sister is 29 , and well i'm guessing he fancies her i don't know . He asked me for her number saying he needed it but she is a private person so i had to make excuses about it. They have met numerous of times since on nights out but he won't go up and talk to her i don't know why and my sister is a very shy person so she isnt going to either. The party was 3 months ago, i introduced him to her and they talked for maybe 15 minutes and had tiny chats in between. About a week after he called to our home (he calls to our home regularly) and at the time i didn't notice anything . But he started off with 'i was talking to your sister' and he was asking was she married and stupid me said no shes single and since then he has been enquiring about her i don't think he's ask so much unless he does. Then one evening last week he called to our home and he was talking non cease my sister came in and he just zipped his mouth said not a word just a hi and that was it he was going red and every he did was stare at her and if she looked at him he'd look at the floor . So it was then i began to think hmm maybe he doesnt like her because the way he reacted when she came in. What do you think? im just curious.

Open Question: i REALLY really need help(long question PLEASE HELP)?

Open Question: What should I tell my son ? What would you do if you were in my situation ?

Here's the situation – Ethel and I used to be married . Now we're divorced, and we have a fourteen -- year -- old son, Ben . Before Ethel and I were married, she was married to Rocko . Now Ethel and Rocko are living together to share expenses . I have a roommate ( Mike ) . I don’t have a car because a doctor decided I shouldn’t be driving . When Ethel and Rocko both had their possess cars, they were giving us rides every so often . When Ethel and Rocko were giving us rides, they’d ask for gas money . That, in itself, wasn't so bad . Mike or I might have had fifteen or twenty dollars and it had to last . Ethel or Rocko might give us a ride, ask “How much do you have ?”, and take the entire fifteen or twenty dollars . I'll admit – we never said “Let's go to a store and I'll receive change !”, but it works both ways – Ethel or Rocko should have said “I'll go to a store and you can receive change !” . Mike and I finally got sick of paying so much for these rides . Mike and I have a mutual pal ( Daphne ) . Every Friday afternoon, Daphne picks me up and takes me to receive my money and do a few errands . I always give Daphne money for gas . For some reason, Ethel and Rocko both had to give up their cars at one point . Ethel somehow replaced her car, but Rocko never did . Now Ethel wants to start picking me up again . I don't know for sure, but Ben seems to think if Ethel picks me up and takes me to do my errands, we'll have a chance to visit . I refuse to ride with Ethel again, and that's making Ben mad . I want to be with Ben, but not if it means riding with Ethel and giving her every this gas money . Ethel gave me a ride a few weeks ago, and I wound up giving her a loan and getting talked into buying Ben a gift card . I'd rather not begrudge my son a gift card, but I can't be as generous as I might like . I don't criticize or bad – mouth Ethel to Ben for general purposes, so I don't want to say “She asks for too much gas money !” or “I can't ride with your mom any more !” . Ethel and I can’t possibly be friends . I’m only being on good terms with Ethel for Ben’s sake . We should have hardly anything to do with each other . I'm about ready to tell Ben “Everybody thinks your mom and I are getting back together, so I can't ride with her any more !” . Everybody DOES think we're are getting back together, so I might as well turn it into an excuse to not ride with her . What should I tell Ben ? Should I tell him “Everybody thinks your mom and I are getting back together, so I can't ride with her any more !” . What would you do if you were in my situation ? Going back to riding with Ethel is NOT an option . Thank you in advance for your answers .

Open Question: Does anyone have a clue why I'm getting BSODs?

My computer worked fine, then something went wrong, rather than just doing a system restore, I used it as an excuse to reinstall windows and clear the rubbish off my computer. Now, when I play a game, or even (in some cases) watch LOTS of videos, I blue screen frequently, with messages like 'IRQL Not Less Or Equal', and 'Memory management'. I've done a bit of a search on the internet, the two possible problems seem to be either a driver problem, or hardware failure (which I'm not going to lie, is more than likely) I'm hoping its just me installing the drivers for my graphics card incorrectly when I reinstalled windows (I did it in a rush, something might have gone wrong) I have downloaded the latest driver for my graphics card (9600gt, old I know) from the nvidia website. So the pieces of information I'm after are: When you install a driver, do you need to have a 'base' driver, which you then install patches on to when you download the latest patch? Or is each download capable of running your hardware on its possess? Is there a program you can download to test whether your hardware is running fine? I don't want to fork out a load of money for a new graphics card /mom board or anything if something else is the problem. Thank you in advance.

Resolved Question: Should I give up on her forever?

Girl I've known for a year we had a fling for 6 months and we used to work together but I got fired because I made a mistake due to pressure from others. People got jealous of us and gossiped and she hated it so after awhile she told people she had a boyfriend(not true) hence why people were weird to me. Before this we used to spend so much time together and got on so well at the start she would call me everyday for 2 months in the morning. We only really had a few real dates and kissed but she told me that she wasn't over her ex and it wasn't the right time. After we stopped working together in October we continued contact and I asked her to meet me. She would make excuses and then when it came to xmas I clip back a bit on contact and could look things were not going anywhere. She added me back on facebook for some reason, and now we feel distant. She txt me saying she wanted to do something this week, when I got her on the phone she started sounding awkward about meeting. I said I was off on friday and she said she was also but then I got a txt from her that day asking me when was our next shift(at another part time job we don't do often) so I understood that was her way of saying she wasn't going to meet me. I tried calling her that day and she didn't answer my calls. We receive on really well and she has so many guys that like her so she is spoilt for choice. We had something special but we haven't seen eachother for 3 months now I don't know whether I should continue contacting her.

Open Question: Do you think that misogyny and misandry are often the result of neglect or abuse as a child?

http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/rethinking-men/201010/why-some-people-have-issues-men-misandry http://www.lovesicklove.com/2011/07/men-who-hate-women.html Are misogyny and misandry often the result of hurt caused by a trusted member of the opposite sex, in your opinion? This irrational hatred has to arrive from somewhere. People don't just wake up, and say to themselves, "Golly, I sure despise the opposite sex!" If it's not the result of feeling victimized, I believe that it was taught. However, once we are adults, we can rise over our upbringings, and learn to think for ourselves, so that's not an excuse. It's certainly understandable to feel hostile towards a group of people if you've had nothing but bad experiences -- or very few positive ones -- with them but that doesn't make it acceptable. Do you know any misogynists or misandrists in real life?

Open Question: can you help my english?

Here is my essay. can you fix grammatical mistakes? My first language is Japanese. Exactly I can read, write, talk, hear to English, but my English skills are not perfect. It never be perfect, it might be close to perfect though, because I am not an English native speaker. If I could change one thing about myself, I would change my first language from Japanese to English, and there are three reasons. First reason is that I want to talk to many people every over the world. There are 10 billion people can use English. On the other hand, the are just only less than 2 billion people can talk Japanese. Since I am in US, I must communicate with non-Japanese people. I can more or less communicate with them, but sometimes I can not hear and understand what they say. This is because not only their speaking speed is too quick to hear but also they sometimes use some slang. In addition, if I want to tell something to them, it is difficult to tell every of my feeling with second language. Next reason is that I want to receive correct information by myself. For example, if I read Harry Potter, I would read Japanese edition. However, original edition is written by English. That is to say, when I want to read an English book, or receive English information, I have to read them through translation. Although there is no evidence whether the translation is correct or not, I have depended on the translation. Therefore, if I can read English writing smoothly and fluently, I can recognize whether the information is correct or not with out any translations. Last reason is that I want to understand nuances of the meanings of the words. For example, I can not tell “can” from “be able to”. The native speakers can use them correctly and know their nuances, but I can not tell them even if the native speakers can explain it. In addition, for example, Japanese people often confuse “I am sorry” and “Excuse me”. This is because Japanese have just only a word means “I am sorry”. Therefore most Japanese people do not know when do we use “Excuse me”. It is very difficult to understand some difference between Japanese and English. Thus, I have some English problem because English is not my first language. If English is my first language, I do not need to struggle with these conflicts between Japanese and English. Therefore, if I could change one thing about myself, I would change my first language from Japanese to English.
