Rosie

I feel like I love him. We had a fling in the summer for about 6 weeks, and during the first few weeks I was ecstatic. I felt on top of the world happy. We had been flirting and had a crush on each other for about 2 years prior, and I was so happy that I finally got with him. Towards the end of the relationship though, I could tell we weren't feeling it anymore. He wasn't as into me as he was the first few days, and the dates he took me on weren't my style. I was hoping it would just painlessly fall apart. But instead I found out he told his friend that he didn't want a relationship but that he just wanted to do it. We broke up after that. I wish he had broke up with me but I had to do it. Then we didn't talk for 3 long months and my heart was really missing him. Not one day went by that I didn't think of him and I was really wanting to be his friend. Eventually I talked to a mutual and she ended up getting us talking again. I was so excited that I felt like I'd had a drink or two but nope, it was just my emotions. My heart was aching to get back in touch with him, and that ache had finally gone away. I again felt like I was on the clouds happy. We have become friends with benefits. We've hung out a few times and we did it. I had been wanting to do it with him, and I cannot figure out why. It may just be because he is hot. Or I love him and don't know why, since he wasn't nice to me. But I get the nervous butterflies when I go to see him and I still get a rush of happiness when he texts me or comments/likes something of mine on Facebook. After our fling I learned a lesson for all future relationships, and that is to not get so emotionally into them because when it ends, I will be hurt.

I feel like this guy may be objectifying me or being sexist. He's only done it with two other girls before me but he used to brag and made it seem like he's done it with over 10. He thinks I am hot and I find him hot too. We tried dating but our personalities and likes are way too different. We decided we would both be okay with a friends-with-benefits relationship. We still text and stuff as friends but we also have done it. I don't think he is actually sexist but he does like to dominate people.. His ex was into bondage and slave/master roleplay and he said with the slave roleplay he hit her and grabbed her around the neck (but she was into that). I think everyone knows the song "show me your genitals" and he said it was his favorite song, I just can't tell when he is joking around or not. The one time he twitched and accidentally hit me he felt bad. I just can't tell if he likes me for me or just wants to do it. We don't have much in common personality wise. Just attraction. I feel like I love him though and I cannot understand why. For months I've been wanting to do it with him and then we finally did and so far I don't feel ashamed.

She is 19 and I understand that 19 year olds are sexual and want to experiment. I think she may be turning a bit sl*tty but I don't mean to be rude. She's only had intercourse once and she confided in me she didn't really like him, but she just wanted to do it. I know she has been sexual with other people. She thinks she is bisexual and shes had sex (scissoring) with a girl. She hung out with a male friend who has a girlfriend and they touched each other and he gave her a hickey on the collarbone. She also has been telling me for months that she is sexually interested in her ex (long story short they only dated 6 weeks because they are too different but they have always found each other attractive) and just the other day she went to his house and they just gave each other hand jobs and oral on each other. She has a friend in the Army who is here visiting for the holidays and they wanted to have fun.

Basically she is having sexual activities with quite a few different guys within a short period of time and sometimes she goes to hang out with them while she's home alone. Her parents are controlling and I'm wondering if this is just her way of experiencing freedom because her parents are the type who need to know what she's doing at all times and ask 20 questions about all her friends. She's even had hickeys at the same time from 2 different guys.

As I said I understand being 19 and wanting to experiment with guys and I think this is just her way of finally getting out from under her controlling parents.

We were friends for two years before dating. During the 2 years we were kind of flirty- we smiled whenever he saw each other and I think his smiles were in a shy "I like you" way and I know thats how my smiles were- a "you are cute and I kinda like you!" kind of way. We texted sometimes and Facebook messaged, and were able to talk about anything. We got along really good as friends, but we knew there was a crush.

When we were both single, we chatted on Facebook pretty much everyday and felt like we could talk to each other about anything. We ran into each other at a community event and then walked together and sat together and I had the feel-good butterflies and couldn't help but smile. He even walked over a mile to get me his jacket and blanket from his car when I was cold! Then we went on a date and became boyfriend and girlfriend.

The first 2 or 3 weeks were great- I was getting feel-good butterflies and couldn't help but smile every time I even thought of him. After about 5-6 weeks of dating we realized we have nothing in common at all and weren't compatible.

If he would have said something like "hey, I don't feel like we connect on that level and I feel it would be best if we took it down a notch." That would have been fine. However his way of breaking up with me was by dropping the obvious hints- he was always "too tired" to hang out, and at my birthday party he was the last to arrive and first to leave. I don't mean this in a bratty way, but he said he couldn't afford a present so he didn't get me anything at all, yet I know he buys himself fast food almost everyday, sometimes even 2 or 3 times a day.

Then on my actual birthday (2 days after the party) I wanted to have a little celebratory with just my family, aunt and him. He said he "had a bad day at work and couldn't make it" but I talked him into coming over for a bit. He didn't talk to me or even look at me. Then when he went home I found out he messaged his friend saying "I'm lonely. My girlfriend is an idiot." Their conversation went on to say "She wants to wait 5-6 months before anything of a sexual nature may occur, if ever. I don't care to be in a relationship right now but a quick f*** would be amazing. It also turns out she's about as mature as a sheltered 7th grader."

The friend did the right thing and sent me those messages. I just told him that I don't think we have the time or interest to keep going with the relationship. All he said to that was "I feel the same."

We haven't talked to each other since (it's been about 2 and a half months now) and he unfriended me. We have over 20 mutual friends so I see his name and pic sometimes and for some reason I want to be his friend. We only dated about 6 weeks so it's not like a major ex just sorta a fling. The way he basically broke up with me though was completely unnecessary. Why couldn't he have just said something like what I stated earlier? I can't help but think of him every day and I've imagined scenarios where we are both hanging with a mutual. Why do I want to be his friend? Do you think he will ever contact me again??

My most recent ex and I broke up in not the best way. It was one of those situations where we just had nothing in common- our interests and hobbies were completely opposite so the dates he took me on weren't my style so it just sorta fell apart.

The way we ended up breaking up though, was because he was messaging his friend about me, saying I was an idiot because I wanted to wait. He even said "I don't care to be in a relationship right now but a quick f*** would be amazing." And that I was as mature as a sheltered 7th grader. The friend sent me the messages and I didn't want him to know because he would have been rude to the friend who did the right thing.

Towards the end of our relationship he was treating me poorly- always being "too tired" to hang out, never talking to me, and I think he even said something about picking up hot chicks, On my birthday he tried to not come over, but he did, and he didn't talk to me or even look at me the whole time.

I just want to know why he didn't break up with me since he so clearly wanted to. I mean, how hard would it have been to say something like "I don't think we're feeling it anymore, I just think we don't have enough in common to make it work." I talked to a male friend about it and he said that guys feel a physical pain in their chest when it comes to stuff like this. Is there some truth to this? Can someone explain it please?

I just graduated and I'm trying to figure out what classes to take at our community college. I've met with advisors and all they do is ask what I want to do and then seem annoyed when I say I don't know. My parents are also being annoying with it too- they know that I don't know, yet they keep hassling me about it.

I feel really plain. I will be 19 in a month so I think I'm just in a phase where I'm in the process of discovering who I am, what I like, and what I want. But there's something about me that's just.... plain. My boyfriend works at Les Schwab and likes to tell me stories about what happened at work that day, and I have no response besides a quiet "yeah" or "nice". I am trying to find a job so I can't really tell stories to him about my job. And it's not just that. It seems like I always answer people with a simple "yeah" or "nice" or a smirk. I just don't have a response to a lot of things. I also am not good at coming up with conversations. If I text someone I haven't talked to in a while it's usually one of those "hey, whats up, not much, how are you, good." conversations that doesn't last. I just feel like I have no personality.

I have about 50 something different colors. I bought myself probably less than 10 of them. My cousin gave me quite a few and my aunt bought me some for a birthday. And they take forever to go through. I don't even like all my colors.

I live in a small county, population about 200,000. I would love to see an LGBT event around me but I'm not sure my county is big enough and has enough gays to host an event. There is a page on Facebook for those people in this community and it has 60 likes but the admin doesn't post enough for it to become anything. I messaged the admin saying I am happy to see a page dedicated to our area and I would love to see the page grow and get enough people in support of an event.

I'm Facebook friends with my ex because we got along as friends... Almost too well. Even when we were single we acted together... kissed and stuff. Well I think he had another "friends with benefits" and tricked me into thinking he was just protecting her from her ex.

When I caught them kissing it was like a shot in my heart. It felt like he cheated on me. He completely lied. I know I need to just get over it but anyone who has been in that situation knows you can't just get over it.

His new girl and I USED to be somewhat friends, and I saw her post the song Mirrors on her FB (we aren't FB friends anymore) and now I hate that song and cannot listen to it without thinking of her taking my boy.

Somehow I ended up doing some snooping on her profile and I saw her post things like "I'm glad he came over and had fun. Feeling loved" and tagged him. And somewhere else I saw her say "my boyfriend" So now I know they are absolutely together and he lied to me.

Not last night but the night before I had a dream that me and her got along and that I thought she was cute. When I was snooping just a few minutes ago I saw pics and realized she isn't bad looking... But naturally seeing her stings. She is probably a better girlfriend than I was. =(

I have a wart on the underside of one of my small toes. I've been using wart removal medicated bandages. I read some reviews on Amazon and most people said they cleared up their warts in about a month, but I've been treating mine for about 3 months straight now. The skin around it is peeling and I know that that's how these bandaids work is by removing layers of skin until the layer that the wart started on is exposed and comes off. It just seems strange that it's taking so long. I replace the bandages 2 or 3 times a week.

For a few years I've been wondering if I'm straight or bisexual. I'm pretty sure I'm bi, but I cannot say for sure until I have a girlfriend. For some reason lately I've been wanting a girlfriend, but I do not want a boyfriend at the moment. Why am I only wanting a girl? Is it so that I can finally know for sure? PS I know I'm not lesbian because I do like guys, I just think that I like both guys and girls.

It seems all my dad ever does is ask questions and it's getting really annoying. It actually makes me a bit sad because it seems like he doesn't know me. He also asks my mom questions and I can tell she is getting really tired of it too. Sadly it has gotten so bad I never want to do anything around him. For example if I am watching TV he asks what I'm watching, when I eat he either asks what I got or he will do what I can't stand - stare at it. I even made a point to wait to get food until after he left the kitchen because I knew he would hover me and stare, but of course he came out when I was getting food and I felt him looking so I glance up at him and he is seriously staring at it. It makes me really tense and kind of uncomfortable. When we go to a restaurant he asks what I'm gonna get before we even leave the house. And he always asks "DO YOU LIKE IT" and I just have to annoyedly say yup. Things like that such as asking if I got enough to eat when there's still tons for seconds, it's like um if I didn't get enough don't you think I would get seconds... When I'm on my phone he asks who I'm talking to. He does the same to my mom. He asked who she was talking to and she just ignored him. Last night she set vinegar on the counter and he asked "IS THERE A REASON THIS VINEGAR IS OUT?!" and she said "yeah." Dad said "I'm listening...." And I could tell she didn't want to answer.

It seems he just wants to "make conversation" but he questions my every move and it's gotten to the point where I feel tense and kind of uncomfortable eating in front of him because I know he is going to stare intently and ask what it is, I don't like watching TV with him in the room because he is going to ask what I'm watching, I don't really like picking out things when shopping with him because he will ask what I got.

Is it normal for him to be this annoying? Please don't tell me to talk to him about it because he is extremely defensive. And don't say move out, because I don't have a job yet.

I don't know if this is normal or if I'm being sensitive... But my dad makes me extremely tense. I feel like I can't do anything around him without him staring and I seem to have a problem with the "someone looking over my shoulder" feeling. When someone is looking over my shoulder I can't finish what I was doing. If I'm typing on the computer and someone comes up and stares at the computer I just look at them until they leave. I just can't keep working with the tension. Well I feel the same about my dad. Whenever I watch TV he asks what show it is, he always asks what I had to eat that day and if I'm home he seems to stare at my food. One time he even walked out of the way to look at what I was eating. Tonight I wanted to get some food and I heard he was in the kitchen so I made it a point to wait until he left before I went to the kitchen. Just to avoid his uncomfortable looking. But of course he's everywhere and comes out when I'm making food and I looked up at him and he was staring intently at it. Does everyone have someone like this?

If yes, why did you watch it?

I love their Mexi Pizza.

I have the same glasses as mine, but my hair is auburn and not black. Also my skin is lighter.

I don't weigh much. I need to build muscle so I will start doing push ups and crunches, leg lifts, planks to build my muscle. But I have some chub I would love to lose. I would love to be flat. I also have a pretty small stomach and don't eat much. My mom says I don't eat enough but I do eat enough to feel full. I guess I just want to go against the stereotype of everyone being fat and I wanna be the odd one out that is thin. I don't like how fat looks and I feel good being thin. I naturally try to eat healthy and be healthy just because of my mindset of trying to lose chub on my stomach and face. I pay attention to what I eat and when, so that I don't end up eating too much. Like I will make sure I have dinner kind of late (around 7) so I won't eat more later, eat lunch around 3 or 4 so I won't end up eating 2 lunches. If I had something kind of unhealthy, I will eat healthy after it so I don't fill up on junk.

I believe in the possibility of God, but there is no proof that he does or does not exist. I do things I enjoy and believe in even though they are not what "God says" (e.g. I'm a thousand percent FOR gays). I pray sometimes in case there is God but I live for myself and others and do what we want because if there isn't a God I don't wanna live a restricted life.
