I've had goldens in the past, and am also considering health issues. Thanks!I'm looking to get a dog and am deciding between a golden retriever or a lab...any advice?
They are both excellent dogs in general. It depends on their lineage what kind of personality they will have. Each breed has a list of possible health problems.
You wouldn't have the grooming costs with a lab.
I own 3 Labs. They are wonderful dogs. They need exercise everyday and obedience training.
As for the yellows being the most aggressive, that is bunk. I have a yellow female that is a lover. They say the chocolates are the dumbest of the 3 colors. Again a load of bunk. It all depends on the individual dog.
Choose which ever fits your lifestyle and personality the best.I'm looking to get a dog and am deciding between a golden retriever or a lab...any advice?
labs are fun but you HAVE to make sure you can give him good exercise they have alot of energy and if you do not walk him of give him plenty of time to run around he will burn his energy in other ways like tearing up anything he can find so bassicall if you dont let him burn off energy outside he will find a way to inside.. Goldens are much more calm but with any dog you get it needs good exercise if you want him to be a happy content dog
Golden Retriever, I own a Golden and he is a joy to have he is very intelligent,super friendly to everyone and other pets. Go for the Golden you won't be disappointed! Labs tend to run away, when I go pick up a dog at large (work) they are always Labs.
lab because they are great companions and they are obedient
Labs are puppies for a long time (more than twice as long as Goldens) but once they settle down, they're really great dogs. If you're willing to deal with that puppy stage, I'd say the breeds are pretty equal and you should judge based on the particular breeders you are considering. A healthy Lab beats an ill Golden (and vice versa) any day. If you're looking to adopt, same deal - go to the rescues and meet the dogs and take the one you fall for home with you.
Both bright lovable dogs. The Lab. gets my vote based on my experience. I grew up with a yellow that was part fiest and he was extreemly loyal playful and lived a long healthy life.I guess I am a mutt guy.
I must admit some degree of ignorance of goldens but the long hair bugs me.
Lab all the way. Labs were bred to be gentle and calm. I'm not saying that it won't need training, and it will still be a puppy, but as it gets older it will calm down and be much more managable. Retrievers are some what of air heads. They are harder to train and much more hyper, and that lasts long into adult hood. They require at least one walk a day, or you will suffer, and if you go with one, be sure to get a halti, also. with labs you don't have to worry about them not eating. Retrievers sometimes just won't eat. For like a day, then they'll eat again. Its weird. Anyway, get a lab.
Ultimately, you have to get the dog that will make you happy. However, for me, this is an easy one - Labs seem to have far fewer health problems than Goldens. Sorry, so many lines of Goldens seem to have poor immune systems, so many of them get cancer. I'd rather deal with a Lab. Know if you're getting a dog from a show line or a field line (not recommended unless you're going to do field trials). Good luck.
Ahh - the mighty question of whether or not to get a Lab. Well, I am owned by 2 female chocolate Labs and even run a website specifically devoted to the Lab Retriever breed. I have some great articles on the Labrador Retriever breed that you may find below. More specifically though is my article on ';Is a Lab Right for You?'; at: http://www.8pawsup.com/articles/labsfory鈥?/a>
Please read this articles thoroughly before getting a Lab. Many people think they are not a lot of work when it is the opposite.
PS - dont listen to anyone that tells you that Lab colors make a difference on their personalities or ability to be calm or smart. Those people are listening to myths. Trust me as I am a Lab expert and write articles about the specific dog breed for multiple publications.
I have heard that Retrievers are more calm than Labs..I once had a lab I know for a fact that the first 2 years of a labs life is hard because they are really wild, if you are to get a lab, the chocolate labs are calmer and the yellow labs are the most aggressive...trust me I know, I have done a lot of research on this before...
Hope that helps :)
Golden Retrievers tend to be more nice and calm.I would get this dog if you had kids.But a Lab is a nice dog also.Either way you will have a nice loveable dog.

Job decision advice please? My husband has been offered a salaried position. Should he take it?
He has worked for the same company for 21 years in a good paying but very labor intensive position as a machine operator. He was asked to apply for a salaried position of first line supervisor and got the job. he has 60 days to try the job with the ability to go back to his old job within the 60 days if he chooses.
He has only a couple of weeks more to make up his mind. Some of the folks in the salary ranks love it and others say the company is piling more work and taking away benefits. Some say they are fine, and others say the stress is killing them. My husband does not handle stress well and is a very methodical thinker. He knows he can do the job well, but does not like the job or the constant headaches it brings. He is experiencing anxiety and doesn't know if it's just the decision or the job.
Money wise the new job is better, but we are ok with money either way because his operators job pays ok, too- new job less days but higher salary.
Thanks!Job decision advice please? My husband has been offered a salaried position. Should he take it?
I am a salaried employee. This means that I get paid a 40 hr/wk. regardless of how many hours I actually work. I like it, but it is not for everyone. You are wise to seek counsel on this decision.
There are both benefits and detractors to being salaried. One benefit is that you are showing partnership with the vision of the company, and it is a great way to grow with the company. The detractor in this is that the company expects for from you due to this partnership. If something needs to be done, they go to the salaried employees first for two main reasons. 1) They have greater responsibilities within the company than hourly workers (most of the time); therefore, they are trusted with new jobs first. 2) The salaried people are not immediately rewarded (paid) for their extra work for the company. Their reward is taken into consideration at the time of their review. Without knowing the details of the company's benefit package, 401(k), vacation, etc., as they compare to the hourly workers, there is no way to effectively assist you in that.
The other part of this decision is the way your husband will handle this new job. You mentioned that he does not handle stress well. Well, it is inevitable that unless he works for a utopian company the workload will mount, and his responsiblities will grow. It's not a bad thing. Remember, as a salaried employee, he is a partner in the companies success. He's on the track toward company leadership. Adding responsibilities and workload is the company's way of testing his mettle to see his character, abilities, strengths, and weaknesses. If he is interested in these things and he is ready for a challenge, then he should give it his best shot and go for it.
However, you must also take into consideration your home. You're relationship together is more important than any job. It is your primary responsibility. While you can't raise or provide for a family without having a job, when push acomes to pull family responsibilities should always win out.
I hope this has helped you in some way.Job decision advice please? My husband has been offered a salaried position. Should he take it?
I am on salary and love it. The question would be if he does find out he is loosing some type of benefits from the company. That would be something to find out. As you say he does have 60 days to try it out. You have nothing to loose at this point. Have him try it out. You can make a better decision that way.
Take the promotion. If if does not work out, worry about that if it happens.
Ultimately it sounds to me like the new job may be a poor fit. People who are very good at their jobs, with loads of experience (sounds like him!) may find they do not enjoy supervising others doing that job. It takes a whole different set of skills, mostly people-related, that he may not have, even though he has the respect and admiration of his co-workers.
It's hard to boss people who used to be your equals. It's hard to be flexible, but not too flexible, dealing with the needs of workers while getting the work done the way the company needs it. ';Constant headaches'; is the big clue here that says he may not find this a good fit in the long run.
It does sound like the company is trying hard to reward him for being a long-time dependable employee. Maybe he can suggest some sort of job description that sets him apart from his colleagues but isn't directly supervisory, with less stress? I bet he'd be a good trainer, liaison between the workers and management, safety supervisor, quality inspector, etc.

Any good advice, I am looking to increase my sharpness Please help!?
My memory is somewhat weak and I have most trouble reacting to certain situations. I tend to freeze or blurt out irrelevant thoughts, especially when I am nervous. Any who, anyone else have this issue? What can I do?Any good advice, I am looking to increase my sharpness Please help!?
Get yourself a book of, or find on the internet, ';brain teasers'; and puzzles. According to Mensa, doing puzzles and brain teasers can increase IQ by 5 points or more, and improve memory by an average 30 percent.
Learn stuff. Follow links to interesting info from your Yahoo home page, watch the History/National Geo channels (and other good-for-you programming.) The more bits of useful information you know, the easier it is to apply that information, which should improve your conversational skills, and sharpen your mental skills.
Practice, practice. practice. Get yourself some file cards and write out ';talking points'; and memorize them. A talking point could be anything from the weather to current events to music -- whatever you wish. If you have a talking point, you are rarely at a loss for words, and once you are comfortable with your talking points, this will free you up to expand into conversational areas that aren't covered on your file cards.
The key to strengthening memory is learning, particularly learning things that, on the surface, look like things you couldn't give a hoot about. Repetitiveness will also help improve memory -- watch the move a couple of time, re-read a paragraph, talk about it out loud (with someone if you can) as this will reinforce the information.
Many experts believe that the caffeine in tea, as well as good-quality, high coca dark chocolate help memory retention -- both of these contain high levels of anti-oxidants that are good for the brain. Drink a cup of tea every morning (my mother always claimed that tea cured everything, and she was right).
Create images and word associations. Most people who learned 'HOMES' can rattle off the names of the great lakes (Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, Superior...see that wasn't hard).
Use rhymes -- ';Red sky at night, sailor's delight, red sky at morning, sailor's warning,'; and alliteration ';Silly Susie Sings Songs,';
Get a good night's sleep.
Supplements such as Omega 3 (fish -- brain food, remember?) and ginkgo help keep the brain healthy and active, and cut out all trans fats, as trans fat slow down brain activity and cut down blood flow, ergo oxygen, to the brain.
If you drink alcohol, cut down, as this kills those precious brain cells, and impedes memory retention.
Follow some or all of those principles, and you will see a vast improvement in your memory, and you will become a much more confident (and WAY less nervous) conversationalist.Any good advice, I am looking to increase my sharpness Please help!?
It won't happen overnight, but if you'll go to a Health Food Store and get American, Korean or Chinese Ginseng in capsules and take it every day, you will experience many positive effects over the course of time. One of them is increased sharpness and coordination.. Try it and give it time.
Play those memory card games they're fun and acctually work! :)
i have this problem, im trying to be more mentally active in a positive way just find it hard! , got a Nintendo ds with brain trainer thats making me more sharp if anything heh
If you have a DS or WII get one of those Brain trainer games, also, playing certain video games that make you constantly remember things will help.
Try to do something every day, like write a sentence on a piece of paper when u wake up, memorize it, and then leave it some where, and b4 u go to bed, find it, and repeat the sentence. This seriously helps, i did it, and if going from F's to A's in one semester. if that doesn't prove it, i don't know what does!
I've heard that if you do some puzzle books and that sort of thing helps.

I want to visit Las Vegas this year, but fancy driving out there and am looking for advice/help?
I know that driving from East to West will take weeks, so am thinking of starting in Utah maybe. How long is the drive likely to take? I intend on moving on to San Francisco after this then onto Seattle maybe.I want to visit Las Vegas this year, but fancy driving out there and am looking for advice/help?
Where did you get the idea that driving from the East coast-NYC ,Philly, Boston- would take weeks ? You can do it in a very realistic 4 days and if you want to push it , 3 days.I want to visit Las Vegas this year, but fancy driving out there and am looking for advice/help?
It takes just under 6 hours to drive from Salt Lake City, Utah to Las Vegas, Nevada; a distance of about 420 miles (670 km). Just to satisfy my own curiosity, why don't you just start in Vegas and save all that driving from Utah?

I know a girl that's older then me and likes my best friend is it okay to give dating advice?Is it okay to give dating advice to a girl that's older then you and likes your best friend?
Depends on the age and the advice. If you're telling her things about your best friend that will help her start a convo with him(?) then that makes sense.
Personally...in the example of one of the people above if a 13 year old had a lot of boyfriends she would definitely not be a person I was taking relationship advice from.Is it okay to give dating advice to a girl that's older then you and likes your best friend?

Any advice on trusting someone you realy love and want to be with??
The important thing to remember is that there are two kinds of trust. The trust that is automatically given and the type that is earned.
Trust that is automatically given can be dangerous, but it is human nature to trust people we have special feelings for. We like to only see the good in them and forget that they too can make mistakes.
Whereas when trust is earned there is a comfort in the fact that the trust has a track record. Basically the trust is more secure.
Now don't get me wrong, both trusts can be broken. But another part of trust is taking a chance.
Best Wishes to you.Any advice on trusting someone you realy love and want to be with??
sure give them all the trust you can until the person abuses it. then it is extremely hard to earn it back. i know from experience.Any advice on trusting someone you realy love and want to be with??
don't spend all your time with that person.
you need other adult relationships or you will slide in to suspicion and emotional dependence.
The very worst mistake you can make is to mix love and trust together. With love you have some flexibility and lots of forgiveness but do not let love influence trust. Trust is something that is earned and stay with your own criteria for trusting people even a mate or partner. This leaves you not so vulnerable and it is not expected so don't trust just because you love. Love with all your heart, trust with all your mind.
whats your point? Doesn't trust come with love and wanting to be with??? if you don't trust them, then its not love
just because you love them and want to be with them doesnt mean you should trust them or doesnt mean they deserve your trust. You would have to look deep into your relationship and really think about whether that person is trustworthy . Only your experience with lthat person can answer that unless there are obvious signs.
Ask yourself first if you are generally trusting or not.
Ask yourself how deep your relationship is.
Ask yourself how sensitive the matter of whatever you are planning to entrust to that person.
Generally, trust do come with love. You can't love someone without trusting them. Love from another human being is no security. People are difficult to understand and sometimes people who have been in a relationship for 10 years break up.

Any advice on Costa Rica........ i will be there in June?
My only advice when you go out of the country is.. Keep an eyes on your passport.Any advice on Costa Rica........ i will be there in June?
Depending on where in Costa Rica, mosquitoes can be pretty bad, so i recommend some repellent, or Vitamin B-1 (Thiamine) helps with repelling them also.
The weather can be interesting, i was there last year in June and one day it was the hardest rain ive seen, then the next it was clear skies, so bring sun screen for those days!Any advice on Costa Rica........ i will be there in June?
Its the most beautiful country in the World and things are about one third cheaper there than in the States.
You won't have any problems with the Ticos (people) there because over 50% of them speak English as well as Spanish and are very honest, hard working, and friendly people!
You will have the time of your life!
Have a good Trip!
Umm...lots to see and do. So beautiful, my mother has been there twice and is taking her 3rd cruise there in August. Go see the rain forests and waterfalls- http://www.visitcostarica.com/
Great link- I recomment the Tree Top Expidition (What to do, adventure)
There are volcanoes to see- all the wildlife- and ofcourse the gorgeous beaches. Depending on what time of year you go take clothing suitable for rain and bugs! Have fun and be safe.

Good advice???? If you have any more I'd be pleased to here them?
DON'T waste money on expensive ipods. Simply think of your favourite tune and hum it. If you want to ';switch tracks';, simply think of another song you like and hum that instead.
CINEMA goers. Please have consideration for pirate DVD viewers by having a piss before the film starts.
RAPPERS. Avoid having to say 'know what I'm sayin' all the time by actually speaking clearly in the first place.
DON'T waste money on expensive paper shredders to avoid having your identity stolen. Simply place a few dog turds in the bin bags along with your old bank statements.
WORRIED that your teeth will be stained after a heavy night drinking red wine ? Simply drink a bottle of white wine before going to bed to remove the stains.
MURDERERS... Need to dispose of a body ? Simply parcel it up and post it to yourself via Parcel Force..... You will never see it agaiGood advice???? If you have any more I'd be pleased to here them?
SOLDIERS. Invest in a digital camera to avoid all that court martial tomfoolery after a trip to Trueprint.
BURGLARS. When fleeing from the police, run with your right arm sticking out at 90 degrees, wrapped in a baby mattress in case they set one of their dogs on you.
EMPLOYERS. Avoid hiring unlucky people by immediately tossing half the CVs into the bin.
MEN. When listening to your favourite CD, simply turn up the sound to the volume you desire; then turn it down three notches. This will save your wife from having to do it.
GAMBLERS. For a new gambling opportunity, try sending 拢50 to yourself by Royal Mail.
BANGING two pistachio nutshells together gives the impression that a very small horse is approaching.

McDONALD'S. Make your brown carrier bags green in colour so they blend in with the countryside after they've been thrown out of car windows.
Before attempting to remove stubborn stains from a garment, always circle the stain in permanent pen, so that when you remove the garment from the washing machine you can easily locate the area of the stain and check that it has gone.

You totally had me in stitches with the rapper comment! Personally, I wish the entire population would learn to speak and spell properly. I even have trouble understanding the presenters on Blue Peter these days. What is that Irish girl on about?Why does Eamon Holmes (who apparently has a degree in English) insist on referring to films as 'FILLIMS'? The weirdo!
CINEMA goers. Please have consideration for pirate DVD viewers by having a piss before the film starts.
RAPPERS. Avoid having to say 'know what I'm sayin' all the time by actually speaking clearly in the first place.
DON'T waste money on expensive paper shredders to avoid having your identity stolen. Simply place a few dog turds in the bin bags along with your old bank statements.
WORRIED that your teeth will be stained after a heavy night drinking red wine ? Simply drink a bottle of white wine before going to bed to remove the stains.
MURDERERS... Need to dispose of a body ? Simply parcel it up and post it to yourself via Parcel Force..... You will never see it agaiGood advice???? If you have any more I'd be pleased to here them?
SOLDIERS. Invest in a digital camera to avoid all that court martial tomfoolery after a trip to Trueprint.
BURGLARS. When fleeing from the police, run with your right arm sticking out at 90 degrees, wrapped in a baby mattress in case they set one of their dogs on you.
EMPLOYERS. Avoid hiring unlucky people by immediately tossing half the CVs into the bin.
MEN. When listening to your favourite CD, simply turn up the sound to the volume you desire; then turn it down three notches. This will save your wife from having to do it.
GAMBLERS. For a new gambling opportunity, try sending 拢50 to yourself by Royal Mail.

Need advice- When would be a good time (age) to tell my little sister that she is my sister and not my doughte
My mother died when my sister iwas just a year old (now she is 11) and since then she lives with me. She doesn't know she is my sister; as far as I can tell she knows she is my doughter. I think I should tell her some time and I am worried about the timing. What age would she be able to handle the matter? Please help, and thanx in advance.Need advice- When would be a good time (age) to tell my little sister that she is my sister and not my doughte
Don't tell her at all. There is no benefit to her knowing the truth other then your feeling better, and she stands to suffer a great deal of psychological trauma, especially when at a point in her life where relationship boundaries and interactions are being formed.Need advice- When would be a good time (age) to tell my little sister that she is my sister and not my doughte
how bout now
Sit her down in front of another person she trusts. Say like an Uncle or grandparent or something and just tell her the truth. Let her know you've raised her like she's your own and in all honesty, she'll probably look at you like a father for the rest of her life but she deserves to know where she came from. She's definatly old enough.
This is a really hard question. I think either do it right now before she goes through puberty or wait until she is an adult. You could casually bring up the subjection of adoption and see what her feelings are. You are a great sister to have taken on this responsibility. A few other thoughts--was your mom a good person and were you close to her? Will you be able to share photos and speak positively about her to your sister? That would help ease the shock that she might feel. If you two have a good relationship and you think the timing is right, tell her...otherwise, wait until she is older.
Ten years ago would have been a good start.
I would have told her a long time ago or have let her know that you're her sister instead of letting her think that all this time. Wow it would now depend on how well you think she'll take it. Depends on that on not her age to me. Let her know soon though.
better tell her now
Immediately. The sooner the better. You absolutely have to tell the truth in this instance.
I think that she is a good age to handle it. My mother died when I was 9 and I was actually able to understand. Her age right now is fine. I think that you should let her know that you are still going to look at her as your daughter, and not a sister. Before letting her know you should tell her what happened to her mother and father. Tell her good stories about them. You also may want to seek a professional before doing all this. This is a lot to think about and a lot to handle. You should do it over summer break also. She then has time to actually think about the situation and it won't be on her mind while trying to also maintain her school work. Once you have done this contact her school counselor so that they are able to look after her and see if there are any behavior changes.
Oh! and ask the school counselor now and see what they think. They will really be a good source, and good people to help you tell her.
You need to start talking about what a mother is. A biological mother vs a mother as in a nurturer and someone who guides you. I am sure she has a friend of two that has a ';mother'; that is not the ';biological mother';. She really needs to understand the difference before you spring your family history on her. You absolutely have to tell her, because she will find out one day (when she looks at her birth certificate)
Whoa why has this gone on this long?? Even at 1 she should have known you as Sissy and not Mom--What do you think?? Is she not around other people in your family? If you allowed her to forget your Mother and accept you as that role then its going to have to be told to her soon BY you and not someone else or she might not trust in you afterward--
God Bless you
Tell her as soon as you are comfortable with telling her. The sooner the better, as long as you make it clear that this revelation in no way affects your relationship as far as you are concerned.
I guess I would talk to the rest of your family and see what they think. It depends on the maturity level of the child i think.face makeup remedies blackheads

Nothing wrong with ';just friends';, she is being honest about her feelings...give it time, don't miss a wednesday, and she just might begin to notice you more.
honor her wishes...don't try to force something that just isn't there...since you are a Christian, have friends, family, etc. [and you, yourself] pray if this is hurting you for God to give you strength, understanding, peace, %26amp; courage in dealing with this even though it may be hurtful right now....God Bless %26amp; good luck

I have become a vegetarian, but i don't know how to tell one of my friends, who is also a veggie, any advice?
I am not sure how to tell her, not sure why, i wasn't afraid to tell my other friends.I have become a vegetarian, but i don't know how to tell one of my friends, who is also a veggie, any advice?
Oh lady I can relate! I was pretty afraid to tell my friends as well, including one that USE to be a Vegetarian. My family was the hardest because they just don't seem to understand ';alternative'; things. But be proud of who you are and what you've chosen. Bite the bullet and you know what? don't be afraid of what they will say, it doesn't matter because it can't change you or who you are. If they question you you don't have to answer, if they tell you it's not healthy tell them they should do some research. You've made a HUGE change and I'm pretty darn proud of you...if your friends aren't then that's their choice. Be who you are and be proud of it! :)
Kudos to you!I have become a vegetarian, but i don't know how to tell one of my friends, who is also a veggie, any advice?
Just tell her, I had to do something very similar. I'm pretty sure your friend won't be mad or anything.
Umm, I once had a friend who was a vegetarian - everyone though we should be friends, just because we were both ';the same';, but I didn't particularly like that idea... Is it because you don't want to be grouped with her, maybe?
Sorry, a wide shot - just applying personal experience... Ignore if pointless.
Why were you scared? You should be proud that you're saving animals, not ashamed of it.
Just go up to her and say ';you know how your veggie, i have become one to!';
you guys could come up with ideas for meals with out foods! just have fun with it! You could come up with yummy pasta sauces or a homeade veggie burger!! ps freddy's frozen custard and burger king has veggie burgers! and some mcdonalds to, but they it's called Mc Veggie
Why are you scared? She shares your passion for being a veg. so I would figure she would be on the easiet to tell.
Relish the common ground. The next time you go out to a setting, be conspicuously vegetarian. Bring it up as a question, how long has she been vegetarian, and oh, I've found X and Y were good or bad about my experience so far...
But for myself, other than in this forum, I don't think about it nearly as much as I used to any more, and for my money, it's not an issue.
For me it was - truly a personal choice, I won't hold it against anyone I know for eating meat. I came to that decision for ethical reasons, but I did that largely through my own decision making process and was not compelled to do otherwise.
I dated a very elitist vegan woman a couple of years ago, whom looked down upon meat-eaters as if they were lesser people or something. At the very least, I felt that was something that I always felt was slightly smug and is slightly off-putting to others.
So while, yes I believe vegetarian / vegan food choices are the more enlightened decision. I'm unwilling - (if not unprepared), to pass judgment on anyone else's food choices.
If my meat eating friends ask I tell them, but it's not an issue unless there's really nothing else available for me to eat.
In which case I can still choose to eat nothing at all, if the selections so bother me.
just tell her that your trying it out. she'll be fine and probably supportive. you probably feel intimitated because if you decide you dont want to beveggie anymore, she'll be mad/dissappointed
wait...why are you afraid? she would probably be proud of you. if one of my freinds became veg i would be like YAYYY
wow, I think she would like you more if you say you're vegetarian :-)

for the past 2 and a half weeks i have been experiencing cramping on and off and my tummy has felt like tight as if i was flexing the muscles, yet i can still flex and it becomes tighter (im due for my period on the 16th)... and ive been getting this weird feeling behind my belly button. just wondering if i should be concerned with any of this?Any advice? what could be causing this?
If you dont mind me asking...how old are you?and are you sexually active?
I have just been diagnosed with uterine fibroids after experiencing cramping in my abdomen. I also have IBS (irritable bowel syndrome), which causes light cramping and the pain behind my belly button.
Think about the following.....
1. are your stools regular?
2. do you have diahorrea or constipation frequently?
If so, I would go and ask your GP about it.
It's nothing to worry about, just a few small changes in your diet, and possibly a few pills from the doctor and you're all set. Bowel problems are often confused with gynaelogical ones due to the cramping in the stomach, so rule out the possibility of IBS first!

Any advice? All opinions can be heard.?
My friend (girl) and I (girl) got friendly over msn and bebo. We started flirting like. your my superwoman come rescue me and I want you in bed now. And things like that.
she said to me about 2 days ago. : im in love and i said who with and she said you. and then said wanna go out? i said sure.
Is this serious or not?Any advice? All opinions can be heard.?
Okay ohh, It depends on how she saids it did she have a smile on her face? I guess if she really was asking you out then she might have gone red or looked at the ground but then again that only happens to some people.
Ask her shes your friend right be like,,,
';Hey, you were joking about the other day werent you? I mean goss (instert name) you kind of freaked me out'; then just smile and if she says that she was joking be like ';Thank god'' and hug her.
?but if you do want to go out with her as long as your happy thats the main thing?Any advice? All opinions can be heard.?
maby she was joking like Alot of girls do maby the other girl is feeling a sexual attraction about you who knows but if she is serious well talk to her about how you feel about that only you can decide.... have a nice day
well if you 2 do date and develop a certain kind of relationship, you will know how serious it is after being together for sometime. That is the only way to know.
you need to sit down with her face to face and discuss this
tell her if you like her or you were just joking or is she being serious?
have you felt attracted to women before?

I really love my bf and someday i want to be his wife. Does anyone have advice on getting along with inlaws?
don't ever call them when you are mad talking crap about him. don't ever talk when you are nervous. don't talk bad about anyone in front of them. don't get pregnant before yall are married. just be nice with a clean mouth that tries to empower him to do anything that he wants and clean up after everyone when you go to there house for a bar-b-que or something. oh this is good, always mail cards for all occasions and especially thank you cards for anything.I really love my bf and someday i want to be his wife. Does anyone have advice on getting along with inlaws?
yes, move as far away as possibleI really love my bf and someday i want to be his wife. Does anyone have advice on getting along with inlaws?
I think at first I would recommend that you would live as far away as possible. But that don't solve anything. You have got to remember that they probably feel as scared of you as you do of them. After all, you are taking their beautiful baby boy from them. I think that the first thing is not to go and get pushy with them. Stay back and wait for them to make the first move and watch and learn. Offer to do only things that will not make them feel unwanted and only make suggestions. In time you should be able to cement a good relationship with them. And the mother is going to be the hardest one to sidle with. She has been raising this boy for many years and she thinks she knows what is best for him. It is a slow process, but well worth it in the long run. Be Patient!!!!!
if they are friendly and not nosy, ok, but if not move far away and leave them be. i have a sister-in-law who rides a broomstick every halloween. i strickly avoid her, but i don,t itefere with my wife and her having visits and relating with each other. it,s a kind of a mexican standoff but it,s worked well for a long,long time. you just you be friendly and pleasant,and more than likely everything will work itself out just fine. good luck and mutch happines to you both!!!
there is no better advice then to remember that they are now family--just liek your own, there are good and bad sides to this, but they are FAMILY. love them like so....
stand your grounds and let them know that your here to stay they'll get over it sooner or later.
don't live with them
don't argue with them
go to church
don't come between him and his mama
wear conservative clothes
don't drink
DON'T BE YOURSELF!!
one thing is for sure be your self DO NOT be someone that you are not just to impress them.
The relationship is between you and you man.
Do not allow them to get too involved in your things.
And remember that the in laws always look for the best interest for there son as your parents would too.
Hah.. are they jerks?
hold your tongue until they disrespect you is what I think. if you get married to your boy then they don't HAVE to like you, but you have to at least be civil with them.
The way I do it? When someone says something demeaning to me or something that I think is disrespectful I look at them with a straight face and then ignore them. Just like dogs. they end up feeling stupid and you don't have to retaliate.
pucker up and say yes, I agree, a lot. #1 live cross country
Just grin and ignore them.
That's a tough one. In laws are the second leading cause of divorce. I've heard of a book that is supposed to be very good on this subject. It's called, ';Boundaries.'; I'm sorry I can't remember the name of the author but again, the book is comes very highly recommended.
treat them as you would a boss .show respect and never angerand always be nice and never spend to much time with them
Just be yourself. They will love you for what you are and for your positive qualities. Elders of course, want to be respected and given extra attention and being asked of their opinions.

My Gf might not be pregnant by me??? advice?
ok, I started dating this gorgeous girl on june 1st of this year, about a week later she told me she was pregnant. within this week I caught her getting flirtatious texts from other guys. I have asked her over and over again ';if its not mine, just come clean its ok';(she still says its mine) now we have been together for close to 2 and a half months and she kind of looks four months pregnant... what should i do? i like her quite a bit and our relationship is suffering when i question her since she says its mineMy Gf might not be pregnant by me??? advice?
well she wouldn't know she was pregnant after a week..so if you were only with her for a week and she was already pregnant then there is no possibility it could be yours. The earliest she could find out is 14 days after she conceived.
Also, if you are one of them guys thats in denial and still thinks it could be yours, ask to go to a dr. appointment with her, they should be measuring her belly everytime and give her a due date, ask questions yourself, that way she can't lie.My Gf might not be pregnant by me??? advice?
Sorry to tell you this but there is no way that you meet her and she told you she was pregnant 1 week later by you. It would have taken at least 3 to 4 weeks for her to know. It sounds like to me that the baby isn't yours but that doesn't mean you can't be there for her nad the baby. Remember it takes more to be a daddy then sperm.
it is not yours, sorry to be so blunt. But there is no way to find out you are pregnant a week after you concieved so unless you two were having sex before you started dating then there is no way it is yours. walk away now, she knows it is not yours she most likly just thinks that you will be a better father then the man who actually is the father
Like everyone else said I think it's impossible for you to be the father. She wouldn't know that soon she got pregnant.
If she is lying to you this early in the relationship I doubt it's destined to get very far. This may be a sign to get out now.
If it really is your baby she can contact you and get a paternity test. I have a feeling she won't because she may know who the father is.
Do what is best for you! I wish you the best of luck.
The baby is not your! There's no way is your because you guys only been together for one week and she already told you that she was pregnant! you should asked her how many months is she and told her that you want an DNA test to prove that is your or not if she keep saying that the baby is your. Good luck.
she would not be able to tell after one week... sometimes you have to be closer to 5 weeks before you know for sure. I don't think it's right what she is doing.
I am 17 and found myself pg with the boy I lost my virginity to. We started sleeping together April 2nd and I was not able to get a positive result until May 2.
Its no way that baby is yours.. 1 week is way to soon for a positive test.. If you feel different then the only thing to do is request a dna test when the child is born. Also, go with her to the dr to know excatly how far along she is so you do the math. she shouln't even be no where near 3 months. she should be about 6-7 weeks tops.
Good luck
you need to get the baby tested but I don't think ti's yours because it takes at least 10 days to get a positive pregnancy test. This situation sounds impossible. I can't tell you what to do but do the math, What is her due date?
It's not yours.
after one week of dating she would not know that she was then pregnant..it was way too soon.
I would dump her lying butt.
it's not your kid! Quit that lying tr@mp now befor you catch something!
Well, go to a doctors appointment with her
Ask HIM when the baby was conceived and how far along she is
Do the math and you will know
Plus if you really are the father, she should be more then happy for you to accompany her to the appointment where you can hear the heart beat and see the baby etc.
But, if you were with her for only a week and she told you she was pregnant, I can almost guarantee you its not yours.
You dont get a positive pregnancy result until your at least 3 weeks.
Pregnancy starts at implantation, not conception. It can take that fertilized egg up to a week to even attach to the uterine wall.
1 week is not nearly enough time.
If your still worried, get her to take a paternity test after the baby is born. This way, even if she claims its yours, you do not have to be a father or pay child support for a baby that's not yours.
trust your instinct. thats the one thing that willnever lie to you. i know and heard of girls doing this. so, my advice to you, be there for her, when the baby comes, simply get a dna test. tell her, not ask her. you will want a dna test. if she gets mad, shes childish and immature and obviously is hiding something. she has to be understanding about the situation. it involves a baby. she should agree. if she disagrees and doesnt approve, do not sign any papers when the baby is born, you will not legaly be responsible until proven other wise. if you really care for her, you deserve to be cared for in return. if she is lieing, well, you know the rest. if you feel this baby isnt yours, make sure, before making any rash decisions. she should, in my opinion be ok with agreeing with a paternity test. if i knew in my heart that my boyfriend whom i barely been with was the father, i would agree to it, to help calm is worried mind and try to work on 'us'. gudluck to u.

Any advice would be great?
My grandad passed away last night and im not really that great at coping with grieve and things like that. just got over depression and would like any advice on coping better this timeAny advice would be great?
So sorry to hear about the loss of your Grandad. I think the most important thing you can do is find someone that you can honestly talk to about how you are feeling, be that a friend or a counsellor. Also do not let yourself sink back into depression. If you feel you are going that way then seek advice from your Dr. asap before it gets too bad. And most importantly give yourself time and be patient with yourself. xAny advice would be great?
the best advice i can give is to talk and talk and talk about grandad, don't block it all in, go through the natural stages of grief and anger and let yourself cry as much as you want and then talk some more, look at pictures and laugh at the memories.
Coming to grips and accepting the fact that your grandad is gone is the near end process of grieving. First, you have to let your body feel the pain of the loss. Apparently, you must have really loved your grandad very much. He is in a better place now and doesn't feel pain anymore. Think about your beloved ones who are on this earth still. Concentrate on those who love you.
I'm very sorry to hear about your loss, and feel for you.

it may offer you some helpful informationg to guide you through what is going to be a tough time for you.
Keep an eye on your mental health as well, as a major life event, as bereavement is, can cause depression, or maybe a relapse in your case - I'm not saying it will, but just to be aware of it, and watch for any signs that indicate you may need help.
Don't feel that you have failed if the depression comes back, it's only a relapse, and it is possible to get back on the road to recovery.
Bereavment counselling may be something to consider, as it may help you to cope.
Try to look after yourself and keep doing the things that have made you well again, if you are having to help others around you, it's important that you don't forget yourself.
Everyone deals with grief in different ways and also in how long it takes them to get over it - you may need a little more time that others, but don't worry about it, there are no hard and fast rules about how to cope and what to do.
Good luck and take care.
There's no easy answer to this question. Everyone deals with serious loss in their own way. However, having someone who is a good listener can help a little. Just remember that TIME heals all wounds.
sorry about that mate,all i can say is just remember all the good times,the funny moments you had with him,that way you will celebrate his life in a good way
Hi,
Firstly I would like to say how sorry I am to hear of your sad loss.
It is not healthy to avoid grief or to deny a major loss for a long period of time. Avoidance of grief may lead to serious physical or emotional problems later in life.
The most important aspect for grieving people is learning to cope with the loss. Individuals who are grieving need to speak with and explain their feelings to others, so please speak to a friend or a close family member, remember you do not have to tackle this alone. You never get over losing a loved one, you just learn to live without them, you don't lose memories so when you are feeling sad just think of all the good times.
I hope this information is of use to you, and wish you all the best for the future.
think of your grandad at the time when he may of told you a story about himself,or a time you might have stayed with him, and what you did with him as a child,my grandfather always told us a story about his kilt (he was a scott),and some embarrasing times he had,then he would play his bagpipes,i can still see him with his pipes and tapping his foot.you must have some happy memorable times of your grandad,he will never leave you, because he,s in your heart always.lay on your bed and picture him,what he used to enjoy doing,his smile.if you shed a few tears ,thats ok,it does help,let your feelings out,i,m sure you,ll always remember him with love in your heart.
I'm very sorry...
don't repress ur feelings, accept the grieveing process %26amp; remember that he's in heaven, smlining down on you %26amp; waiting until u'll be together again...spend time with ur family who're also grieving %26amp; know what u r going thru'...whatever u do, don't keep it inside %26amp; share ur feelings.
your grandad would not want you to be sad try to remember the good times and enjoy them i know its hard but you have to carry on i lost my mum in June last year and i miss her a lot about 3 weeks ago i tried to phone her so please cry if you need to but try to think of the happier times .Sorry to hear of your loss
Call a friend
Take a walk
Don't be alone too long
Talk about him and his death
Go to therapy if needs be
I'm sorry for your loss.
Speak to family about how you feel. Hold them close to you.
my heart goes out to ya i lost my grandad 5 yrs ago although he cant b replaced his memorys wil live on and his stories b told to my children and grandkids that way although u cant c him his spirit wil b strong wiv u and sometimes it wil stil feel as though is stil there. thats how i cope and sometimes i chuckle as though he is stil ere sharing his life stories . Life is just 1 big learning curve this is just another new emotion ur learning and that in mind will make u stronger . U wil b ok u took the 1st step in coping by talkin about it .
just think about all the happy times you had with him it is ok to be sad but it is not your fault he would have not whated you to beat you sealf up over something you clould not conntroll
Think of the good times you had together and how he would want you to feel and remember him. When ever I think of someone dear I have lost I convince myself they are in a better place now. Hope this helps a little bit.
I had that same problem i got over it show you also well.
Hi im sorry to hear about this loss... Please try and remember the ';happy moments'; crying is good and there will be lots of it. but over time and lots of time you will cope better... just dont lock yourself in all the time thinking about it... You need to get out there and carry on to some extent.
Good luck :o)
I am not sure how close you were to your grandad. but it still hurts and is painful. Remember the fun times you had with him and cherish those memories. If the man was old and suffering keep in mind that he is at peace now and not hurting, he also lived a long life and it was his time to go. Allow yourself to feel sad and grieve. This is all part of the healing process.
I am sorry about your loss. You will get through this, and it will take time, it is a process that must be gone through.
allow yourself to greive over your lose! I am sorry about the lose of your love one. But if you feel like crying, screaming ect. allow yourself to do so. where it seems we go wrong is not allowing our feelings and emotions out. we all greive in our own ways and the time on greiving is different for everyone. but the more you deneigh yourself the chance to let your emotions out the harder it is on us. good luck .
So sorry to hear about the loss of your Grandad. I think the most important thing you can do is find someone that you can honestly talk to about how you are feeling, be that a friend or a counsellor. Also do not let yourself sink back into depression. If you feel you are going that way then seek advice from your Dr. asap before it gets too bad. And most importantly give yourself time and be patient with yourself. xAny advice would be great?
the best advice i can give is to talk and talk and talk about grandad, don't block it all in, go through the natural stages of grief and anger and let yourself cry as much as you want and then talk some more, look at pictures and laugh at the memories.
Coming to grips and accepting the fact that your grandad is gone is the near end process of grieving. First, you have to let your body feel the pain of the loss. Apparently, you must have really loved your grandad very much. He is in a better place now and doesn't feel pain anymore. Think about your beloved ones who are on this earth still. Concentrate on those who love you.
I'm very sorry to hear about your loss, and feel for you.

I'm a student and I am looking to get a credit card, any advice?
Advice besides don't do it lol.
I want the best card for a student with the best rates and whatever else I need to look for in a credit card.I'm a student and I am looking to get a credit card, any advice?
ROFL @ the ppl saying 'Dont Do it'
WORST. ADVICE. EVER.
... and then they quote personal experience?
So their inability to control spending and lack of financial sense should reflect on you and your decisions? ROFL
Now for a serious answer: Look to open a small balance credit card. It is highly unlikely you will get a preferred rate because of your lack of credit history ... anything around 17-20% is pretty much standard and should be expected. With which bank? Ideally the bank you do your regular banking with ... why? Because they want to further their relationship with you in hopes you will continue to bring them business when you want a car loan, a student loan, or a mortgage when you graduate.
Another tip - start small. $500 - $1000 Cards are standard. Sometimes they want them to be secured ... meaning you front the money up front, lets say $500, and they hold on to it for a certain amt of time while you have the $500 CC ... its their security in case you default.
Oh ... and you have a job, right? I have to ask because if you don't have any confirmable income (and they will ask for proof of income from pay stubs) then what will you pay this off with?
And that is pretty much that ... good luck ... and just remember that this will be a test of your financial sense, and a NECESSARY ONE. Now is the perfect time to start building your credit (the PRIMARY REASON why you want to get a small balance credit card at an early age and pay it off clean).I'm a student and I am looking to get a credit card, any advice?
I got a credit card in college and I did just fine with it. Just remember to ONLY charge what you can afford and pay it off in full every month. Don't let yourself get into debt, no matter how tempting it may be to use that magical card for things you cannot afford.
As far as getting a good rate...good luck with that.
This is extremely rare, but I actually agree with the majority of the answers here. There is true hope after all. You see, some of us saw this countries economic problems coming years ago. Maybe we are finally seeing the light about credit cards.
Proverbs 22:7 ';The rich shall rule over the poor, and the borrower is as a servant to the lender.';
Honestly don't do it. Their to tempting. The young people is really where the credit cards company's make out. trust me don't get one you don't want to be in debt at a young age, but if you insist get one with a very low maximum and interest rate.
i have my credit card through my bank where i have my checking account
they usually have student credit cards with good limits, high enough but not too high, and its easy to pay off monthly with your checking account there too
Get one with a benefit you know you'll use. For example, I have a GM MasterCard for auto earnings and a JetBlue Amex for miles. Just make sure you don't go crazy buying stuff that you can't pay for.
Im a student, check out the student discover card. I just apllied. My advice, use it like you would a debit card. Spend what you have!
DON'T
Don't get one. You will end up regretting it. Trust me you will end up in debt.
But if you do want one anyway try Capital One.
Step away. Don't do it.

NEED ADVICE!! Which would be a better choice? 60K Sony job or Masters??
I got a job offer for 60K/yr as a logistics analyst in south NJ for Sony. I had been laid off 6 mos. back, but after looking for work for a while I kinda gave up and got myself admitted into the Masters in Accounting program at UT Austin. Now after 1 month into my new program one of the companies I had interviewed 40 days back finally offerre me 60K for a job. I really like Austin and and doing OK in the accounting program. I feel that if I was in a finance/ accounting to begin with I wouldnt have to wait for so long to get another job. SO what do you all think...should I continue in the accounting masters or take up the job? I have substantial scholarships for the MAcc program plus its Austin, so thats a big draw. On the other hand the salary is 60K. WHich would be better in the long run?
P.S. I was terminated from my last consulting job working for a tiny company after just 2 mos.NEED ADVICE!! Which would be a better choice? 60K Sony job or Masters??
If you feel that you could not be happy in South Jersey at any price, then stay in Austin.
If it is truly a question of job versus education, consider what other opportunities you may have at Sony. Is this a full time job or another consultant position? Will you have benefits (health insurance, pension, education, etc). Find out what types of classes they will pay for and how the reimbursement works. Will they pay for Master's level classes? Can the classes they pay for be in the accounting field? Is there a program in South Jersey or Philly that you might be able to transfer to? If the answers to these questions are ';yes'; you could have your cake and eat it, too. It may take you a while longer to get your Master's but you could get the degree AND get your work experience at the same time. Then move back to Austin in five years. That might actually be the best choice.
That said, I always think you should do something because you ENJOY doing it, not because you think it will be a good career choice. Are you a good logistics analyst? Do you like it? Are you finding accounting to be more enjoyable? If you don't want to work in logistics anymore, love accounting and Sony won't pay for education then your choice is really clear.
Hope this help!NEED ADVICE!! Which would be a better choice? 60K Sony job or Masters??
I would answer but I have no clue
hard to say without knowing ur background...like do u have a bachelor's in accounting or business?
60k itself is pretty good for just having a bachelor's, but in the long run it's not that much money. do u have the potential to climb the ladder relatively easily?
if u have no accounting background, then i would lean towards getting the masters. it'll be harder to go back to school later, and u've already started the program. i know in general that people can make much more than 60k with accounting backgrounds. also since it sounds like u have been having trouble getting a job...maybe additional education will help u in the future (in case u get laid off again).
ur question really comes down to how easily can u move up to make at least 80k with sony or utilize ur sony experience to get better jobs elsewhere. (how ';dead-end'; is that job?)
job.
It all depends about what u are aiming in life. If right now money and work experience is a priority don't miss it but if u wanna study and are sure you'd be employed and offered a higher pay then study. It's all up to u.All the best

I need serious advice. Could I be pregnant?
Yesterday my boyfriend and I had unprotected sex, no condom. He came inside me and I am not on birth control. What are the chances of me being pregnant and when can I find out for sure that I am? I am supposed to be getting my period in about 5-7 days. I want to know ASAP. Please, serious advice needed.I need serious advice. Could I be pregnant?
Unprotected sex right during ovulation? Pretty high. Is that what you wanted? Kind of sounds like it.
You can't find out ASAP. It takes time for the hormones to build up that the test tests for. You will have to wait until you are late. If you're not late, you will know ASAP that you are not pregnant.I need serious advice. Could I be pregnant?
Yes, you might be pregnant.
But here's my advice (since you asked for it):
Get married before you make any babies.
Chances are 100%. You should take a test about a week after you miss your period. Seriously though, what kind of question is that. ';he came inside me and I am not on birth control'; what are the chances?? Be smarter next time. If you don't want to get pregnant. Sounds like you are another teen who wants to be pregnant which is idiotic. Good Luck
Only way you will find out is to take a test. Atleast wait till your period is late.
serious advice, you can be pregnant, you want a percentage, probably 70% chance your pregnant, just wait until you miss your period and 7 days after your supposed to miss your period, then take a test. That way your 2 weeks pregnant already, and thats when the pregnancy hormone becomes the highest.
That's a pretty risky time to be having unprotected sex. Right at the end of your ovulation really raises your chances as opposed to right after or during your period... but any time still presents the chance (even when you're on your period). Wait till your period comes (or you miss it) before you waste money on a test. You've got about a 50/50 chance in my opinion. Good luck!
PS: Pull out method DOES NOT WORK either. I've gotten pregnant that way due to pre-ejaculation, so even if your boyfriend hadn't ejaculated inside you, that pre-ejaculation has more than enough sperm in it to make you pregnant. And never listen to a guy tell you he doesn't pre-ejaculate. THEY ALL DO! It's the body's natural way of lubricating.
on aol they have a best time to concieve calculation, so you know based on your cycle when you are most likely to get pregnant. Good Luck whatever happens.... try this link...http://body.aol.com/condition-center/pregnancy?sem=1%26amp;ncid=AOLHTH00170000000005
go get the morning after pill. You are not pregnant yet and have time to rectify this mistake before you get pregnant.
Well people say that you could take a pregnancy test the day after and it could work... if you don't wanna be prego. then take the DAY AFTER pill and it'll kill any eggs that are fertilized inside of you... its different then abortion because its not even close to be devolpoed... but if you wanna be prego. then good luck!! i wish you the best!! =]
ha-ha-ha
magic 8-ball says ~~~%26gt; yes
hey BTW what brand of condom's do use?
LOOSER~!
Let me do the math for you~~~%26gt;
(30 secs of joy) X (life time of blaming the system)
equals~~~%26gt; ANOTHER SINGLE MOTHER ON THE SYSTEM FOR THE NEXT 18 PLUS YEARS...
THank GOD we have people like you...
Can you say ~~~%26gt; paper or plastic....
or
would you like fries with that combo?
Of course you could be pregnant, you had unprotected sex!!!
A good indication would be missing your upcoming period. There is no test you can take at this time.
I know I sound snippy, but why bother asking a question like this? You already know the answer. I can't reassure you, because you took the chance and now you may be pregnant. Who knows? I am trying to be firm and realistic with you, and AM giving you ';serious advice'; from my heart. Unless you are ready to be a mother, use birth control EVERY time. There is no exceuse to be sc*ewing and not be on BC unless you are ready for parenthood. BC is cheap or free and easy to obtain.
I am sorry if this isn't want you want to hear, but anyone reassuring you is gambling as much as you are.
The chance is higher but not definite. It still is a lot of work for the sperm to get to the egg and then to actually fertilize the egg. Many die along the way and get lost etc. If you don't want to be pregnant I suggest using a condom from now on and Birth control as well and going and getting a Day After Pill. You can take it something like 48 hours after. If you do go to a Planned Parenthood or your Dr. ASAP... Either way good luck :)
http://www.plannedparenthood.org/health-鈥?/a>
You will know in about 5-7 days!
You usually get pregnent durring ovulation which is usually in the middle of your cycle. You can go to your doctors office and get a blood test which usualy can tell right awayor you can wait 5 days after your missed period to take a at home test. Either way good luck girlly!
Sea Dog is hitting it right on the mark.. if I were you id start learning how to change diapers and check ebay for some old raffie tapes.. cus for the next couple of years you are going to be raising another future gansta! by the way I would suggest buying a guitar for the kid and make him practice 12 hrs a day then maybe he'll tag up with a rock band and buy you that million dollar house you've always dreamed about.

but yahoo isnt a pregnancy test go buy one
the chances of you being pregnant are significantly high. take a pregnancy test if you are late and own oup to the situation. good luck.
wow maybe you should know a person before you start to assume things. I am a military wife, hubby just got back from Iraq and will be going back in a year. I have been running on NO sleep taking care of my babies.
I am not a trailer trash gal, sorry. My husband I am had babies while married. I am not stupid, I know my chances of getting pregnant or less than yours because we used BC. If you are not using BC and letting you B ';come'; in you, yeah you have a high risk of getting ';knocked up'; little girl!!!!!!
there is a big chance that you are pregnant but then again a big chance you are not... if you get a first response pregnancy test it will tell you up to 5 days before your missed period... but i conceived April 15 i didn't know but i thought i could be pregnant after the 15 my period was last i took and test an it said i wasn't and then i got my period... but i was pregnant. i got my period cause i got pregnant really close to that time... it was the end of may before i found out... good luck
Unprotected sex right during ovulation? Pretty high. Is that what you wanted? Kind of sounds like it.
You can't find out ASAP. It takes time for the hormones to build up that the test tests for. You will have to wait until you are late. If you're not late, you will know ASAP that you are not pregnant.I need serious advice. Could I be pregnant?
Yes, you might be pregnant.
But here's my advice (since you asked for it):
Get married before you make any babies.
Chances are 100%. You should take a test about a week after you miss your period. Seriously though, what kind of question is that. ';he came inside me and I am not on birth control'; what are the chances?? Be smarter next time. If you don't want to get pregnant. Sounds like you are another teen who wants to be pregnant which is idiotic. Good Luck
Only way you will find out is to take a test. Atleast wait till your period is late.
serious advice, you can be pregnant, you want a percentage, probably 70% chance your pregnant, just wait until you miss your period and 7 days after your supposed to miss your period, then take a test. That way your 2 weeks pregnant already, and thats when the pregnancy hormone becomes the highest.
That's a pretty risky time to be having unprotected sex. Right at the end of your ovulation really raises your chances as opposed to right after or during your period... but any time still presents the chance (even when you're on your period). Wait till your period comes (or you miss it) before you waste money on a test. You've got about a 50/50 chance in my opinion. Good luck!
PS: Pull out method DOES NOT WORK either. I've gotten pregnant that way due to pre-ejaculation, so even if your boyfriend hadn't ejaculated inside you, that pre-ejaculation has more than enough sperm in it to make you pregnant. And never listen to a guy tell you he doesn't pre-ejaculate. THEY ALL DO! It's the body's natural way of lubricating.
on aol they have a best time to concieve calculation, so you know based on your cycle when you are most likely to get pregnant. Good Luck whatever happens.... try this link...http://body.aol.com/condition-center/pregnancy?sem=1%26amp;ncid=AOLHTH00170000000005
go get the morning after pill. You are not pregnant yet and have time to rectify this mistake before you get pregnant.
Well people say that you could take a pregnancy test the day after and it could work... if you don't wanna be prego. then take the DAY AFTER pill and it'll kill any eggs that are fertilized inside of you... its different then abortion because its not even close to be devolpoed... but if you wanna be prego. then good luck!! i wish you the best!! =]
ha-ha-ha
magic 8-ball says ~~~%26gt; yes
hey BTW what brand of condom's do use?
LOOSER~!
Let me do the math for you~~~%26gt;
(30 secs of joy) X (life time of blaming the system)
equals~~~%26gt; ANOTHER SINGLE MOTHER ON THE SYSTEM FOR THE NEXT 18 PLUS YEARS...
THank GOD we have people like you...
Can you say ~~~%26gt; paper or plastic....
or
would you like fries with that combo?
Of course you could be pregnant, you had unprotected sex!!!
A good indication would be missing your upcoming period. There is no test you can take at this time.
I know I sound snippy, but why bother asking a question like this? You already know the answer. I can't reassure you, because you took the chance and now you may be pregnant. Who knows? I am trying to be firm and realistic with you, and AM giving you ';serious advice'; from my heart. Unless you are ready to be a mother, use birth control EVERY time. There is no exceuse to be sc*ewing and not be on BC unless you are ready for parenthood. BC is cheap or free and easy to obtain.
I am sorry if this isn't want you want to hear, but anyone reassuring you is gambling as much as you are.
The chance is higher but not definite. It still is a lot of work for the sperm to get to the egg and then to actually fertilize the egg. Many die along the way and get lost etc. If you don't want to be pregnant I suggest using a condom from now on and Birth control as well and going and getting a Day After Pill. You can take it something like 48 hours after. If you do go to a Planned Parenthood or your Dr. ASAP... Either way good luck :)
http://www.plannedparenthood.org/health-鈥?/a>
You will know in about 5-7 days!
You usually get pregnent durring ovulation which is usually in the middle of your cycle. You can go to your doctors office and get a blood test which usualy can tell right awayor you can wait 5 days after your missed period to take a at home test. Either way good luck girlly!
Sea Dog is hitting it right on the mark.. if I were you id start learning how to change diapers and check ebay for some old raffie tapes.. cus for the next couple of years you are going to be raising another future gansta! by the way I would suggest buying a guitar for the kid and make him practice 12 hrs a day then maybe he'll tag up with a rock band and buy you that million dollar house you've always dreamed about.

but yahoo isnt a pregnancy test go buy one
the chances of you being pregnant are significantly high. take a pregnancy test if you are late and own oup to the situation. good luck.
wow maybe you should know a person before you start to assume things. I am a military wife, hubby just got back from Iraq and will be going back in a year. I have been running on NO sleep taking care of my babies.
I am not a trailer trash gal, sorry. My husband I am had babies while married. I am not stupid, I know my chances of getting pregnant or less than yours because we used BC. If you are not using BC and letting you B ';come'; in you, yeah you have a high risk of getting ';knocked up'; little girl!!!!!!
there is a big chance that you are pregnant but then again a big chance you are not... if you get a first response pregnancy test it will tell you up to 5 days before your missed period... but i conceived April 15 i didn't know but i thought i could be pregnant after the 15 my period was last i took and test an it said i wasn't and then i got my period... but i was pregnant. i got my period cause i got pregnant really close to that time... it was the end of may before i found out... good luck

Also, u need to learn how to Listen, Communicate, and Respect your girlfriend and be open to changing anything negative for the Better of the Relationship.
as long as u can keep an open mind, be a Good Leader while Respecting her position and ideas, and cultivate ur ability to take care of her in a Positive, Healthy and Happy manner, u will be great!Any one have advice to be a good boyfriend?
SCREW HER AND LEAVE HER! TRUST ME ON THIS ONEAny one have advice to be a good boyfriend?
Don't smother the girl. You can be close without suffocating her and making her want to run away.
rule #1: Women are ALWAYS right...
rule#2: Be careful to what you say because it's not what YOU think you said, it is what SHE thinks you said.
rule #3: If she thinks these are false, refer to rule#1.
Don't EVER play Holo..... LOL But no seriously. Half the time girls just want you to LISTEN. Guys **** up by not truly LISTENING (not hearing) to what we have to say.
well lets see it depends on what is wrong! well are you abusive or are you negative etc. if thats the case some pyschotherapy needs to be sought after but if you are going by what someone else say then maybe its them and they have some serious issue
Good boyfriends have fat wallets and do whatever she wants. I prefer to be a ok boyfriend rather then a foot stool.
DONT BE A JERK BY MAKING HER CRY
Treat her as you would want to be treated.
Well, I can tell you that you should be a good listener, first of all, faithful and honest also helps. Showing her alot of respect and affection especially around other females will definitely score you points. Being a good boyfriend consist of just being a best friend but with perks. Good luck, Baller.

yea tell the truth, dont cheat, use lots of compliments and buy special gifts and dont ever choose your friends over the one you are dating unless you dont really care about her
be smart and kind:)
compassion.
women like to know that a guy likes them and adores them. be affectionate. thats the key.
course flowers or chocolate couldnt hurt too.
but if u ever date a girl that has issues with her body, dont give chocolate. she'll think ur making fun of her weight.
A good boyfriend. I am glad you ask. I am a woman and these are things that I would enjoy. Watching movies @home or theatre. flowers every couple weeks. even cheap ones due it doesnt matter the price. Talking. Dinner. Cook her dinner. Or just a gettaway for the weekend. Hope these help.

the best thing you can do for her is to be considerate. Do things for her that she is not expecting. one time i had a school project due the next day and i was up all night working on it. at like 3:00 in the morning my boyfriend showed up at my house with donuts and coffee and was ready to keep me company. i will never forget that.
I heard this advice on a Dr. Phil show, (I know its cheesy) but it makes a great deal of sense. He said that men should treat their girlfriends/wives how they would want someone to treat their mother/sister/daughters. Hopefully you would want someone to open doors for them, protect them, value their opinions. thoughts, feelings, etc.
Be considerate,be honest pay attention to what she says and how she feels, tell her how you feel... does not have to be mushy all the time but a simple i love you everyday or ';you look really pretty today';, don't smother her but let her know that you want her around, ask her out on dates even if you have been together for years, make her laugh and be comfortable with her. Be yourself because that is probably who she loves. Make her feel like she is the only girl in the world, be faithful, keep your space and don't rush anything. When she wants to talk about an issue listen and talk about it with her. Don't belittle her or make her feel inferior but be a man and make her feel safe. Cuddle after sex, although it is over for you and you want to roll over and go to sleep she is still feeling romantic and needs a little more time. Most of all just love her and make sure she knows it.
Listen, be faithful, know what she likes and don't like, don't bother her when she on her period, don't cheat cuddle if she likes that, leave if she's a gold digger, don't cheat, little things matter, don't bring up the past, express youself and emotions, don't cheat, hold her purse if she asks you to, talk to her, did I mention don't cheat?
You live and learn....all females are different.
just pay ur partner lots of attention adn always look out for those non-physical needs.
Always treat her the way you would expect her to treat you.
(and I am not referring to sex)
Dont cheat and show her you can be trusted when she not around. Also be honest abut every mistake you make down the path of life.
And most of important always make sure she is happy.
treat her like the queen she is.
yeah don't cheat, be honest, trust her, tell her that you love her everyday, oh and tell her how you feel, don't be afraid to cry.
If you give her affection, and do cute, sweet little things for her, you will melt her heart. My bf drew a heart and wrote ';Love You'; on a napkin and handed it to me, I've kept the thing for 16 years. He also gave me a stuffed heart that said ';You're my Sweetheart,'; I loved that too so much. On Easter he gave me an Easter basket, that was so adorable of him. Also just cuddling up on the couch or in bed is wonderful and brings you closer emotionally. Just say, ';Come here, baby'; and take her in your arms. If you do these little things, before you know it, she will adore you, if she doesn't already! Any thoughtful gesture that shows you're thinking of her or care for her will please her. Its easy! When you love someone, these things come naturally.

How much are tickets to Warped Tour & any advice on what to expect?
Kevin Lyman has personally said that this year's warped tour will be the cheapest yet. However the prices have not been released yet. Last year's presale tickets were around $30-40. I'm guessing that this year's presale will be around the same. Presale tickets will be out on the first of April, so get ready!
It's most probably going to be pretty hot this year as well, so bring some sunscreen. Definitely bring a camera with you. Other than that, it's pretty much the same every year regarding stages, tents, and food prices.face makeup remedies blackheads

I have trouble making friends and keeping up conversations, is there any1 who can give me advice?
I have had trouble making friends all my life, i was bullied and picked on during most my school life and didnt really make my first friend till yr 7, im 17 jst about to turn 18 now and i feel so depressed, ive made a few friends at college but i dnt get on wth them that well and we just hang around together because nobody else wants us. i also had a boyfriend who left me and doesn't talk which has just stirred my emotions up even more.
so basically is there any1 who understands me or can relate or can give me advise on how to make friends?I have trouble making friends and keeping up conversations, is there any1 who can give me advice?
Well,see if someone likes something that you like and talk about it.Or help them out in something.I have the same problem,so I just make friends with the ppl nobody likes,like me,so if there ain't anyone like that and if your life goes the same as mine I reccomend changing the place where you are...I have trouble making friends and keeping up conversations, is there any1 who can give me advice?
Just be yourself
I'm pretty much the same, and 40 in a few days. I got by ok I have trouble showing enotions and recognising emotion too, although I know what i like but it's hard to explain. You'll be ok I hope..
I use to have that same problem as well; I could never fully understand the alien cultures of other people. That's when I got diagnosed with Aspberger Syndrome. At first it felt stigmatizing to have Aspbergers but because of the diagnosis, I was able to get social skill intervention and learn how to understand others social cue鈥檚 and people were more understanding of my social errors. People with Aspbergers tend to have above average intelligence but have difficulty understanding the basics of social behavior (Einstein was believed to have it) so for now try to get help for your depression and then consider weather you should be tested for Aspbergers. Otherwise its possible that its not Aspebergers and maybe that your from a culture that is different from your peers or raised differently then your peers that makes it difficult to make friends. Usually the best thing to do is at appropriate times inquire politely with people you don鈥檛 get along with on ';why they don't want to be around you?'; ';What is it that I do that bothers you?'; Sometimes the answers may be assertive or helpful other times it may be rude and insulting so be prepared. If there answers are not informative like eg. They respond with ';because you act like an idiot'; (Your no where near one, this is just situations I dealt with) then ask them ';what is it that I do that makes you perceive me that way?'; If they don鈥檛 want to answer your questions find someone else. Other strategies I used for coping was watching other kids hang around peers and taking notes of what got them accepted or rejected. Compare how you act to how others act (don't try to conform just learn basic things about being good with people) other strategies I also used was watching comedies that had laughter in the background eg. Friends or Seinfeld and take note of instances when people crack up in the background especially if the character does something that you tend to do as well. That鈥檚 when you know that a certain behavior is inappropriate and should be changed. Or other strategies would be to talk to yourself in the mirror and observe how you look when you do it. (Don鈥檛 think its crazy or anything; many politicians do that before they make public speeches. Martin Luther King did that a lot and that made him a good public speaker. Just only practice in a mirror in privacy not public.) I wish you luck in finding acceptance. But until then I suggest you get counseling for your depression first because when trying to figure out why people don't accept you, you may sometimes find reasons that may be unsettling about yourself. For example is may you may find out that its something you have little or no control of that causes lack of acceptance. So you need to be emotionally strong to be able to figure out how to get along with people. Oh yeah one last thing, when people are telling you how to be included be aware they may sometimes lie about what to do and take advantage of you so make sure others do what they say as well and never do something you don鈥檛 feel comfortable with and observe weather they behave different when your not around then when you are.
Insecurity is most likely the cause of your problem. You need to work on developing a greater self-confidence. If you don't feel comfortable with yourself, then most likely, you're not going to feel comfortable making friends with others, for fear of rejection. You first need to be comfortable in your own skin, before you can start being comfortable around others.
I'd advise you to utilize the counseling services at your college to help provide you with any further assistance. Hope I've helped somewhat.
You may not entirely understand this answer but I think it will make you feel better. Sylvia Brown had told a women in the audience on the Montel show that the reason she feels alone and different from everyone else here is because this is her last life here on earth meaning she has an older soul then most others here so it's harder for her to relate. I feel that way sometimes although I do have a few friends. We have great relationships with those who watch over us so try to look more spiritually into yourself and also start thinking more positive about yourself and build your confidence up more. Your no longer in high school or college so don't stay in that mindset and be yourself, do not try to be anything your not. You'll attract more people to yourself that way.
Know who you are and build healthy human relationships built on mutual respect. Listen to people, smile and ask questions that demonstrate you really listened.
It's amazing how many people in High School have all kinds of acquaintences they call friends. I took a course at a junior college called ';Human Relations'; I was 43 when I took it. I wish I had taken a course like that when I was 17. The teacher recommended a book it was called ';Peoplemaking'; by Virginia Satir.
I'd also recommend ';What Do you say after you say Hello?'; by Eric Berne
Also where I work I deal with a woman who has always relied on her good looks. She's vain and mean and specializes in getting everyone to go to lunch with her. Everyone plays her little game and follows her. Most of the time I don't have the money to go to lunch. There's been a few times when I had the money but she wouldn't tell me where lunch was. In a way I am a victim of this female good looking bully.
As you can see below, someone told me I need to be on a talk-show ';People Who Quote Books';.

I've been there but that was many many years ago.... no one should start life that stressed.
Sorry to hear about your trouble.
I found the best way of making friends is try to have a more positive outlook in life. Your best bet is to join a club, u might find some on bulletin boards in the college. Once you go, be open and honest with people. Try talking about anything that's happening in the World. Music, politics etc. Ask people's impressions on what they think and listen. Try to see the funny side of things and share the joke with them. If you can do what I have suggested you will find people will warm to you and ask if you want to do other things. Remember, you need to have a positive outlook. Even if you feel down, to make friends they need to see a person they can have fun with. If you are finding depression a problem, the colleges usually do have counsellors that can help. You have to talk to them and open up to what is causing your depression though. Good luck.
When someone is special and better than his mates (you're the special) might make his ';friends'; become jealous and at times it is at this point where bullying and teasing come in. This happens because this is the last resort to put people down, by picking and bullying who is better than them. As you grow you will get to know and encounter more mature people and who are able to understand you. I don't know where you live and how big is the town you live in, but may be you should try and change location (I mean where you usually spend your time out) and go to another social club.
When I was in secondary school I was bullied myself and I know what it means to have the full attention to make a mistake and all my ';so called friends'; start picking on me.. That is a phase in life, you need to believe in yourself and say that you are the best; because if you believe in yourself you will have success. There are 9 billion people on this earth don't let a dozen make your life miserable. Good Luck!
Most often people with these problems are extremely shy. However shyness means THAT ONE IS ALL TOO AWAKE TO ONE'S OWN LOOKS, ETC., ETC.. If you sit and just think of your nose or something like that you make people think that you are a bore.
Interesting people to others are the ones who listen and takes an interest in others, not only themselves.
As to making friends now I should suggest that you find a group of people who share your interests. Then your may easily find someone to talk to and from there many a friendship has arisen out of the abyss - to put it that way.
Always remember that friends follow those who are not wrapped up in themselves.
First off, Im not sure if your a girl (since you had a boyfriend) or a guy (since your name is Tom1000) so that would help people analyze your situation.
With that said, I completely understand your situation. I am 19 and I just started college a few weeks ago. I also didnt make freinds until I was about 7 (when I started school) and I have kept very few of them through the years. I have been diagnoised with Social Anxeity Disorder, which is my main problem. I also took some **** growing up although I dont think it qualifies as bullying. My only friend in College thus far is my room mate but he isnt around so often.
My advise, find a club or organization within the school that sparks an intrest in you, its the best way to find like minded poeple. If possible, get a gob, you can meet a lot of people working and you will also make money. I recomend avoiding relationships for the time being just because if they dont work out it can be devistating to any progress you have made making friends. Ive joined a few clubs, still havent really met many people but I am in theopy (have been for years). See if your college has a theropist and then see if you can get an appointment. If he/she is good, they will listen and give advise. If you are attending a community college, then you might have less luck in which case I would go for the job. Good luck, it all gets better with time!!
i like you
so basically is there any1 who understands me or can relate or can give me advise on how to make friends?I have trouble making friends and keeping up conversations, is there any1 who can give me advice?
Well,see if someone likes something that you like and talk about it.Or help them out in something.I have the same problem,so I just make friends with the ppl nobody likes,like me,so if there ain't anyone like that and if your life goes the same as mine I reccomend changing the place where you are...I have trouble making friends and keeping up conversations, is there any1 who can give me advice?
Just be yourself
I'm pretty much the same, and 40 in a few days. I got by ok I have trouble showing enotions and recognising emotion too, although I know what i like but it's hard to explain. You'll be ok I hope..
I use to have that same problem as well; I could never fully understand the alien cultures of other people. That's when I got diagnosed with Aspberger Syndrome. At first it felt stigmatizing to have Aspbergers but because of the diagnosis, I was able to get social skill intervention and learn how to understand others social cue鈥檚 and people were more understanding of my social errors. People with Aspbergers tend to have above average intelligence but have difficulty understanding the basics of social behavior (Einstein was believed to have it) so for now try to get help for your depression and then consider weather you should be tested for Aspbergers. Otherwise its possible that its not Aspebergers and maybe that your from a culture that is different from your peers or raised differently then your peers that makes it difficult to make friends. Usually the best thing to do is at appropriate times inquire politely with people you don鈥檛 get along with on ';why they don't want to be around you?'; ';What is it that I do that bothers you?'; Sometimes the answers may be assertive or helpful other times it may be rude and insulting so be prepared. If there answers are not informative like eg. They respond with ';because you act like an idiot'; (Your no where near one, this is just situations I dealt with) then ask them ';what is it that I do that makes you perceive me that way?'; If they don鈥檛 want to answer your questions find someone else. Other strategies I used for coping was watching other kids hang around peers and taking notes of what got them accepted or rejected. Compare how you act to how others act (don't try to conform just learn basic things about being good with people) other strategies I also used was watching comedies that had laughter in the background eg. Friends or Seinfeld and take note of instances when people crack up in the background especially if the character does something that you tend to do as well. That鈥檚 when you know that a certain behavior is inappropriate and should be changed. Or other strategies would be to talk to yourself in the mirror and observe how you look when you do it. (Don鈥檛 think its crazy or anything; many politicians do that before they make public speeches. Martin Luther King did that a lot and that made him a good public speaker. Just only practice in a mirror in privacy not public.) I wish you luck in finding acceptance. But until then I suggest you get counseling for your depression first because when trying to figure out why people don't accept you, you may sometimes find reasons that may be unsettling about yourself. For example is may you may find out that its something you have little or no control of that causes lack of acceptance. So you need to be emotionally strong to be able to figure out how to get along with people. Oh yeah one last thing, when people are telling you how to be included be aware they may sometimes lie about what to do and take advantage of you so make sure others do what they say as well and never do something you don鈥檛 feel comfortable with and observe weather they behave different when your not around then when you are.
Insecurity is most likely the cause of your problem. You need to work on developing a greater self-confidence. If you don't feel comfortable with yourself, then most likely, you're not going to feel comfortable making friends with others, for fear of rejection. You first need to be comfortable in your own skin, before you can start being comfortable around others.
I'd advise you to utilize the counseling services at your college to help provide you with any further assistance. Hope I've helped somewhat.
You may not entirely understand this answer but I think it will make you feel better. Sylvia Brown had told a women in the audience on the Montel show that the reason she feels alone and different from everyone else here is because this is her last life here on earth meaning she has an older soul then most others here so it's harder for her to relate. I feel that way sometimes although I do have a few friends. We have great relationships with those who watch over us so try to look more spiritually into yourself and also start thinking more positive about yourself and build your confidence up more. Your no longer in high school or college so don't stay in that mindset and be yourself, do not try to be anything your not. You'll attract more people to yourself that way.
Know who you are and build healthy human relationships built on mutual respect. Listen to people, smile and ask questions that demonstrate you really listened.
It's amazing how many people in High School have all kinds of acquaintences they call friends. I took a course at a junior college called ';Human Relations'; I was 43 when I took it. I wish I had taken a course like that when I was 17. The teacher recommended a book it was called ';Peoplemaking'; by Virginia Satir.
I'd also recommend ';What Do you say after you say Hello?'; by Eric Berne
Also where I work I deal with a woman who has always relied on her good looks. She's vain and mean and specializes in getting everyone to go to lunch with her. Everyone plays her little game and follows her. Most of the time I don't have the money to go to lunch. There's been a few times when I had the money but she wouldn't tell me where lunch was. In a way I am a victim of this female good looking bully.
As you can see below, someone told me I need to be on a talk-show ';People Who Quote Books';.
