  • Would a woman date and have a long term relationship with a man who does not want to have sex until marriage?

    Not to sound desperate but I really want to get married. I am afraid to go to dating sites and put in my profile that I don't want to have sex until I am married. My past relationships with women all they cared about was sex and would lie, cheat, and steal to get it. It left me hurt, emotionally damaged, and lost confidence with women because the only women I seem to attract are $1ut$. Are there women out there that would love to get involved with a guy who does not want to have sex until he gets married?

  • Why do so many people avoid confrontation?

    I am really getting sick and tired of passive aggressive people. I am not saying I am a bully, but when there is a situation that requires some type of resolution you must confront people and be confrontational in order to work out the differences. When you get things off your chest and talk things out it clears the air and everything gets worked out. Yes confrontation is intense, filled with anxiety, and pressure packed but its like ripping a band aid off. It hurts for a brief moment then it goes away and the band aid is off.

    SO MANY PEOPLE today avoid confrontation at all costs and chose to use passive aggressive behavior or they ignore the problem. Don't these idiots know it only makes the situation worse. When did society get too sensitive and become full of wimps. The office place is the worst, so many people in offices are a bunch of wimps they can't even handle a simple verbal fight!!!!! Now I see why CEOs are bullies, CEOs have to get things done in order for the company to succeed and being a bully gets results, try being a nice CEO, that wouldn't work!!!!!!

    Is there a way to handle the frustration of non-confrontational people without losing your mind? Someone please let me know?

  • Why are Washington Politicans such self-centered jerks?

    Republicans are selfish jerks and Democrats are self-righteous jerks. Can we just find a way to vote all of them out and vote for a 100% Congress of Independents. A Congress full of nothing but Independents like Joe Lieberman would be great.

  • Is it possible to be an independent?

    I am always trying to be an independent when it comes to politics. I want to see Republicans and Democrats work together to solve our countries problems but I always end up leaning to the left and having a liberal bias on issues. George W. Bush was too conservative and Barack Obama is too liberal. I really miss the days when Bill Clinton and Newt Gingrich worked together and we had a great era of peace and prosperity in America. Is it possible to be a straight independent? Please let me know.

  • Why can't people give Richard Sherman of the 2013 NFC Champion Seahawks a break.?

    I am so sick of how people are bashing him calling him a thug and every other ignorant racial comment in the history of White America ( I am a White Man by the way ). First if you watch and hear the sound bytes of the end of the NFC Title game he went up to Michael Crabtree and congratulated him on a good game and because Crabtree is bitter about losing he shoves his hand in Sherman's face. This makes Sherman (and anybody else on the planet who would be in that situation ) very upset and when Erin Andrews interviewed him just minutes after that incident he is going to be upset because Crabtree was such a sore loser and couldn't stand the fact that Sherman beat him on the deflection and interception.

    Also people call him a THUG. When you are salutatorian of your high school class, score 1400 on your SATs, and graduate from Stanford University you are HARDLY a thug, Thugs are morons and Sherman is a highly intellectual educated man. When White people go off and call him names that I can't mention in this statement they are just bitter and jealous that a 25 year old black man from Compton, California is more intelligent, educated, and successful in his profession than they are, and I can say all of this because I am a WHITE MAN!!!!!

  • Why do the good girls have no self confidence?

    I am not interested in Barbie doll, super-attractive women because most of them cheat on you, treat you like crap, and clean out your bank account. However, average plus size girls are the nicest, sweetest, most caring women who are faithful and treat you well. They are also better in bed and are great to hold and grab onto. The problem is that with my past plus size girlfriends none of them have any self-confidence which causes the relationships to end. I try to tell them how they make perfect girlfriends and are so desirable and easy to fall in love with but it just doesn't register with them. Can someone help me in getting a loyal, caring, sweet plus size women. Plus size women are THE BEST BY FAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Why can't St. Louis Cardinal fans get over Don Denkinger's bad call?

    In Game 6 of the 1985 World Series the Cardinals held a 3-2 series lead and we're on the road in Kansas City playing the Royals. Heading into the bottom of the 9th the Cards were up 1-0 when Todd Worell came in to close out the game and the WS Championship for St. Louis. The first batter for KC was Orta who hit a slow grounder to the first baseman and Worell went over to cover 1st for the force out. Yes Orta was clearly out but Don Denkinger the umpire called him safe.

    After that the Cardinal Catcher miss played a foul ball which would have been an out instead KC got a base hit. Then the catcher let a past ball occur allowing both runners to move to 2nd and 3rd and into scoring position. Next KC got a base hit and the catcher missed the tag at the plate allowing both runs to score giving KC the win and the series tied at 3-3. The following night with Denkinger working behind home plate the Cardinals lost game 7 -11-0 and the Royals won the World Series.

    Since then the Cardinals have won 2 World Series but they STILL CAN'T LET IT GO. I am a Cowboys and Mavericks fan and I got over Dwight Clark's catch and the mavs choking away the 2006 NBA Finals, and one day I will get over the Rangers choking away the 2011 world series. Why are Cardinal Fans 28 years later still BITTER about 1 bad call. Denkinger didn't miss play, drop a pitch, or miss a tag, and don't forget game 7. Cardinal Fans please explain

  • Is getting a college degree really worth it?

    I have a Bachelor's degree in Applied Mathematical Sciences, 5 Microsoft Certifications and a few years of experience in Accounting, IT Network Support, and Microsoft Excel programming. But I am always denied employment because I am overqualified. I only went to college at 18 because my parents told me to go so I went and graduated at 23. Ever since I got my Bachelor's degree it has done nothing but cause so much grief and misery in my life. I wish I never went to college to begin with. I just want a JOB AND NOT A CAREER, but every employer thinks I am going to leave the position to become SOME BIG SHOT at another company and that is the last thing I want in my life. Could someone please give me advice.

  • Is it okay to hate money with a passion?

    I grew up in a wealthy family and have watched how money can completely DESTROY families and relationships. Family members fall in love with money and they use it to hurt other people and they do it with a shallow, superficial image and try to come across as the perfect individuals. They also love to preach on a daily basis how they are strong Christians and speak the word of the bible in half of their conversations. I want to marry someone from a blue collar family and be part of a blue collar family where I can be myself and not worry about going to family gatherings without being judged as well as not to be expected to being a boring, shallow, uptight person. Is this possible

  • Why do older women only think about sex?

    Having a relationship with a woman over 40 would be great. She is past the "I have to get married and have kids", dated the wrong men in the past and would like a nice guy, and has a lot of life experience. The problem is that they constantly think about sex ALL THE TIME. They don't want any type of love in the relationship they just want sex. I know women over 40 have GREAT SEX DRIVES and that is a good thing, but every once in a while they need to tone it down. Any advice?

  • Why are Republicans so bad at handling losing?

    Conservatives are such sore losers. When Obama won in 2008 instead of accepting the defeat they double down on more of their stupid out of date policies and went into this mental state of insanity that can only be described as some type of serious brain damage. Then they lost AGAIN in 2012 and yet again rejection only made them crazier. I thought when you lose you crawl back into your shell, learn from your mistakes, and try it again under a different approach. Although that is asking a lot from a very primitive, narrow minded, creature like a conservative Republican. Sarah Palin, Sean Hannity, and Rush Limbaugh are examples of these pathetic worthless lifeforms.

  • Will the Baby Boomers never let another cold war happen?

    Even though many people blame Baby Boomers for the current economic mess we are in can we agree that their generation will always be on top of any nuclear threat to the United States. I am NOT a baby boomer and did not grow up in the cold war era like they did. When the Boomers were children they were reminded all the time of what to do in case of a nuclear attack. When Reagan won the Cold War and the Soviet Union fell many boomers praised Reagan. Because of this today's baby boomers in congress will always be on top of any possible nuclear threat. It is very easy to take not worring about a nuclear holocaust for granted.

    Should the Baby Boomers be praised for keeping a nuclear threat non existant for over 2 decades?

  • How can I stop being a self-righteous jerk?

    I have always considered myself a nice, honest, compassionate person, but I always have a problem with being a self righteous jerk. For some reason I can't control this. One time when I was at a job and the company was losing money instead of doing the right moral thing and admitting they were losing money (mostly to an ineffective business model that is doomed to fail anyway) they pulled people in and blamed them for the job performance which was CLEARLY A LIE!!!! I knew that I was doing a superior job when they lied and let me go. When that happened i turned self righteous. I insulted my bosses character flaws, attacked him personally, and threw in his face all of my education and career accomplishments that he doesn't have. He got fired a month later by his boss.

    I regret saying all of those mean terrible things and wish I could take them back. When I look back I realized that I BECAME THE BIGGER JERK THAN HIM and he didn't deserve any of the things that I said to him. I know what I said really hurt him and I wish I could say I was sorry but he got fired so I can't. How do I fix this.

  • Why do people still vote?

    Isn't anybody sick of both Romney and Obama. They are a bunch of liars that will say anything to get elected. Both of the make me sick. The majority of the country doesn't vote anyway. Obama and Romney will say anything to get elected. Proud not to vote on Nov 6th.

  • What is your opinion on Bill Maher?

    I have watched Bill Maher over the years and he a great guy. He is a great liberal who stands up for people being bullied and neglected. Bill Maher is a great american who believes in reducing the income gap by introducing just a little socialism (NOT FULL COMMUNISM). A man who has great values such as individuality, not working 24/7/365 but working enough so you can take care of yourself instead of the government (e.g. old style capitalism of the 50s and 60s), speaks his mind and tells it how it is.

    The only thing i don't agree with him on is religion. I am a Christion (NOT JESUS FREAK) but i can understand why he feels the way he does coming from the church he grew up in.

  • Why is being a liberal considered to be so bad?

    I don't understand why people hate liberals. Liberals are the nicest, most caring people in America.

    For example why do people hate gays and gay marriage. From my experience with gay people in the workplace and in public they are the nicest people you will ever meet. They don't judge anybody for who they are and they treat everybody with respect.

    Hollywood liberals are another. Sure they are rich but they don't mind paying more in taxes to help the less fortunate and they are the most giving people in this country to charities. You don't see Big Oil companies are Wall street CEO donating millions to charity.

    And what is wrong with people just being themselves and expressing who they are. The First Amendment says Freedom of Religion. Someone needs to relay that message to all the Ultra Conservative Christians who hate anybody that is not a christian. BTW Jesus is a liberal.

    LIVE AND LET LIVE!!! As long as somebody's lifestyle is not hurting any body else WHAT IS THE PROBLEM!!!

    Finally why do people hate Barack Obama. I voted for him in 2008 and will again in 2012 and he is the most caring, generous person there is who is trying to help the less fortunate (the 99% of Americans) in the worst economy since the Great Depression that he inherited from George (DUBYA) Bush.

    In the end I believe liberal values are better than conservative values. Is there anyone that feels like this. I am from Texas so I don't see that many liberals.
