Does your body hold onto water weight if you’re dehydrated and suddenly start drinking more water each day?
I had a bad habit of not drinking enough water each day. It was probably around 16 oz a day because I never really felt thirsty. I’ve been on a diet lately and have been trying to drink at least 64 oz a day at least. After the first two days I’ve found that I’m 5 pounds heavier on the scale and I actually dont need to urinate as often as I did before I started drinking more water, and when I do it’s not a huge amount either. I understand I didn’t gain fat but how long does the body hold onto this water before it realized you’re hydrated?
5 AnswersDiet & Fitness3 years agoIs it a bad idea to donate my sperm to lesbian couple ?
I recently met a lesbian girl, who is planning to marry her girlfriend not too far down the road. I don’t know them very well, but they are looking for a sperm donor not through a bank because of how expensive it is. They came to me and asked if I would. I temporarily agreed but I am worried about the legal implications if they for some reason sue for child support. I had them text me to verify that I would not have any responsibilities to the child or them, but should I have a written contract with signatures as well? Just trying to figure out a way to help them but protect myself in case something happens down the road.
18 AnswersLaw & Ethics3 years agoDoes putting more effort into online dating pictures yield better results?
I’ve had average success with online dating, but I usually just half a** my photos and put whatever I have in my camera roll. I was thinking of actually taking more scenic, stylish photos that show my life all around using tips from YouTube videos on the types of pictures girls find attractive. I know I’m a decently attractive guy so I feel like putting more effort into my photos will help my results. What do you think?
2 AnswersSingles & Dating3 years agoShould I stay friends with a girl I'm catching feelings for?
There's a girl I met through a friend over the summer that I've gotten pretty close with. However, she's been in a relationship for three years and our school is several hours away from where he goes to school. Recently, she's always been wanting to hangout with me and spend time with me, and she doesn't ever talk about her boyfriend or anything negative in general. She went home for thanksgiving break and is posting all this stuff with him and although I'm not jealous because I have someone I'm currently dating, just not exclusive with at the moment. However, I feel like she's using me to provide the attention to her that her boyfriend can't give being several hours away, and there's nothing I hate being more than the attention giver who at the end of the day, isn't the one she wants to be with. I should also add she is transferring either next semester or starting the next school year to a school much closer to home from being kicked off her soccer team. Should I cut this girl off? Or continue being friends with her and risk getting true feelings?
2 AnswersSingles & Dating4 years agoWhen a girl ends with "text me later", should you really text her?
A girl I've been on two dates with, planned a third date with me and she's always very enthusiastic over text. I only text her to plan definite dates while we're getting to know each other. After the second date we ended up texting the next day to plan the third, all the while she was shopping and telling me all about it, and being all flirty with me, etc. Finally I said I would be studying and going to bed so I wished her a goodnight and a good weekend, to which she enthusiastically replied with a long message, ending with "good luck studying! Goodnight :) text me later!" I wasn't sure what she meant with text me later since I was gonna sleep soon, but I figured she meant sometime within the next day or two. Books I've read about dating women have all said to not do so because it makes you look needy and like you have nothing else going on. I'm a very busy person so naturally I haven't texted her and it's been four days since. Is this boosting her attraction level by providing mystery or am I being a douche? lol
2 AnswersSingles & Dating4 years agoHow to read mixed signals from a date?
So I've been on two dates with this girl, and they've gone well. But I know what signs to look for when she's ready to be kissed, and they haven't been there. Yet at the end of both dates she texts me right away to go on another. She mentioned previously that this one guy was really touchy on their second date and it was so off putting that she gave him a high five when he went to give her a hug. For the third date, we are hiking, and then she's coming back to my place to make dinner and watch a movie together. The first two dates were coffee, and bowling/smoothies, so I feel like this third date will create the best opportunity to go for the kiss. Is she just shy when it comes to physical contact? I know they always say to give your first kiss on the first date, but that wouldn't have seemed right.
3 AnswersSingles & Dating4 years agoDoes this girl like me as a friend or something more?
Recently met a girl over tinder, and I got her number and planned a date right away. We had a great first date, but at one point she told me about another guy she had met from tinder that was super creepy and tried to kiss her so she gave him a high five instead. This basically steered me from going for the kiss that night. But before I even got back home, she texted me saying she enjoyed getting to know me, and suggested we hangout again soon. So I texted her the next day and she made herself very available to plan a second date which is in a couple days, and even suggested future dates to hangout as well. I plan on going for the kiss no matter what this time, to see where I stand for certain, but what do you think? We spent three hours talking over coffee for the first date, and she sends me very long and enthusiastic texts, so I feel like she does have a high attraction for me.
1 AnswerSingles & Dating4 years agoWhen a girl from tinder says she's not over her ex and isn't ready for a relationship after a date, is it BS?
Met a girl on tinder, talked everyday for a week prior to meeting in person for a date. It went well and ended with a kiss. Later on she texted me saying she just isn't ready for a relationship because she's trying to heal from her ex and doesn't want to use me for healing. I believed this until she said she'd text me as normal today and didn't, then seeing her snap story show her watching tv and writing "needing a cuddle buddy' in the text. I'm starting to now think she was spitting BS at me. What do you guys think?
Much appreciated.

1 AnswerDiet & Fitness5 years agoShould I quit my summer job and focus on summer classes?
I'm an engineering student, I started a summer project job/internship, which means it's for a month. I was told it would only be a few hours a day and that it was easy, so I jumped on it since my job as a maintenance worker on a golf course was physically demanding for very little pay. However, my boss ended up being a total a**hole, it's eight hours a day, and the job is just as physically demanding as my last job and only for a dollar more an hour. I take two classes at the moment and they are both very difficult, I also play college golf, but with this internship, I hardly have time to study, I can't workout or practice during the week at all, don't have any free time, and I'm very stressed out. It's only been a week but I'm already wanting to quit, to focus on what really matters for me.

3 AnswersSingles & Dating6 years agoHow do I stip thinking with my d**k?
Im a 20 year old male in college. I recently met perhaps the love of my life, the person I see myself being with until death do us apart. The only thing is, we aren't official yet and I've had a couple opportunities from girls at my school, to hook up. Both girls are freaks, and one of them even offered up a threesome where they would both pleasure me simultaneously.. When I think from down low im like okay let's do this, might as well since im in college. But on the other hand, I have devoted and promised myself to the first girl whom I want to be in a relationship with. Every time I tell myself to stop considering hooking up with other girls, something entices me to give it a shot. I really don't want to hurt the relationship I could have, nor hurt the girl in any way, but it's reallt difficult to fight sometimes! Any advice?

4 AnswersVideo & Online Games7 years agoCan you have cheat snacks multiple times a week as long as you're under your calories limit?
I'm a 19 year old athlete. To sum it up, on days that I don't train, I try to stick to 2000 calories, so I don't snack at all and just stick to my clean diet of properly proportioned carbs, protein and veggies, and eat every 3 hours for a total of about 1800 calories(which is my BMR). However, I train more days than not, and I burn anywhere from 800-2000 calories on training days depending on the type, it's usually 800 twice a week and 1600-2000 twice a week as well. On these days I like to eat clean as I normally do if I don't train, but I also like to use this extra calorie deficit to have some of my cheat foods, while still consuming considerably less than the amount I burnt off that day. For example, I like to have a small bag of chips and a soda, or just get a frapuccino at starbucks, something along those lines but nothing crazy. I'm wondering if this is okay to do? I know it's junk food and it's not good for you yadda yadda, but the bottom line is I crave it. So I'm wondering if it is okay to consume my cheat snacks on days that I train ONLY, just to keep me from going insane as well as getting a solid amount of calories for that day, while eating completely clean for every other meal on those days as well as eating only clean meals on days that I don't train.
1 AnswerDiet & Fitness7 years agoHow many times a week is it okay to have a cheat snack?
I'm an athlete so I burn a ton of calories playing basketball and golf as well as lifting and cardio workouts. I eat clean but usually after and long round of golf I crave a little junk food. For me it's a small bag of Cheetos and a soda. I'm wondering how many times a week this is okay. I golf four times a week so if I could have it every time after golfing that would be spectacular

Tickling somebody or being tickled I really don't care which one just as long as it's the opposite sex. I'm really into it but i'm just not sure where to find people that have the same interest. I don't want to just ask people I know personally if they're into tickling because they'll think i'm weird so I want to meet people that I know are into it as much as me. Any help?
1 AnswerOther - Family & Relationships7 years agoGirls: How can I get a higher rate on my pictures?
I'm just curious because with a regular pic I got some pretty good rates, like 8 and higher. But when I added some effects to it, my rates were almost always 8 or more. So i'm just confused as to why a little light change makes such a difference in a pic or why some girls give you a 2 even though I'd consider it a damn good picture lol. All opinions welcome
