  • My boyfriend says offensive/mean things and I hate it..?

    My boyfriend says very offensive things and it bothers me a lot. I am a strong believer in accepting and respecting everybody the way they are. Every once in awhile he'll say something racist, sexist, homophobic, or generally just mean. He thinks its all "just a joke" but it really isn't; he enjoys making fun of people and I can tell he judges others but I have always tried my hardest to love everybody.

    Yesterday I explained why I don't shop at Urban Outfitters - as an example I told him they sold bloody looking university sweatshirts from a school where there was a shooting and he laughed.. I don't think people dying is funny and he shouldn't either. He does things like this all the time and it makes me love him less every time. I am very good at concealing how deeply it affects me in the moment but I do tell him that these things are not funny, however he continues to have a horrible "sense of humor". After he leaves I will cry because I didn't really stand up for what I believe in and tell him that he's wrong. I'm so scared to pull him aside and really explain how much I hate this part of his personality. Everything else about him is perfect and I care for him so much, but when he says these things I am mortified. I'm a bit older than him so I'm kind of just holding on to the hope that he will mature out of this vile sense of humor.

    Please help

  • How to say NO to hanging out with a friend? Please help!?

    In a couple of days I am hanging out with two of my best friends. An old friend of ours heard of it and wants to join us, but I don't want her to join? It's not like I dislike her, I would rather spend time with her separately with just us two. I had this night planned for my two best friends and I, I want it to stay that way.

    She's calling me tomorrow and she'll ask to join, I just don't know how to say no! Her feelings get hurt really easily and telling her I don't want her to come will definitely hurt her A LOT.

    What should I tell her?

  • I'm scared to grow up?

    I'm in 11th grade and turning 18 in half a year and I'm terrified! I've been avoiding all of my responsibilities up till now. Driving, getting a job, thinking of my future.. Every time these things come up I ignore them because I'm so scared! I'm being dragged into adulthood by my family and I hate it. I'm really scared to graduate, go to college, live on my own.. I don't even know what I want to do with my future! I don't have experience in the real world either.

    I know these things can't be helped and I need to accept the fact that everyone grows up, but I'm having a LOT of anxiety about this and I can't get over it. Life is passing too quickly.

    Can someone ease my conscience a little, this is ruining my remaining carefree days.

  • Don't know what I want to do with my future? Advice?

    I'm 17, in 11th grade, and I have no idea what I want to do with my future. I'm going to go to college but I don't know what my major should be! I'm not particularly good at anything so I'm not sure. All of my siblings before me had (useful) skills and went to college for them and are currently successful in life. I want my future job to be something that I really enjoy, there is no way I'm working in a cement building from 9-5 everyday. But the only hobbies I have are watching anime, art, reading, and playing video games. Pretty useless hobbies for a "successful" future. I'm terrified of growing up and have been avoiding all things 'adult' because of that. I still can't drive and I've never had a job because I'm pro at avoiding such things thus far. Every time my future or college is mentioned I manage to maneuver my way out of it. What should I do? I believe if I had a future in mind (of something that I want) I could start trying to reach it, and overcome my fear of becoming an adult. But college is coming soon and my family is (REALLY) pressuring me to decide my future. Advice please.

  • My rabbit died today and I am dying of guilt. Help?

    Here's the story.. I loved my rabbit to death, and it's 100% my fault that he died. Today I slept in pretty late, and it had already been pretty hot outside for awhile. I ate some breakfast and sat for a bit, and just did my normal routine. Then I realized how hot it was, and immediately jumped up and ran to my rabbit's hutch outside to find that he had already died. His hutch was knocked around a bit and he was out of water, so he had obviously died from the heat. And I can't stop crying. I feel so horrible about it, and I can't forgive myself. Knowing that he suffered for hours while I was sleeping is driving me insane. If I had just woken up on time, or checked on him right after I got up, he would still be alive. My brother checked my rabbit and looked for a time of death based on his body, and he had died right before I had woken up.

    I have never felt worse about anything in my life.

  • How to make sliced bread for sandwiches tastier?

    I was thinking about this recently. Is there any way to one up the plain sliced bread, for a sandwich? Like maybe cook it with some cheese and garlic first, or grill it with an egg covering..? Tricks like that? ....

    Does this make any sense? Or am I just being redundant at this point. Haha I'm just curious.

    Making sandwiches at home with plain white bread is no fun. Whenever you go out to sandwich shops, (or any place with sandwiches for that matter) there are choices for different types of bread. Italian, Cheddar, etc.

    I'm just wondering if there are ways to add flavors to plain sliced white bread.

    Thanks.

  • Does Fan Service in Anime bother you?

    Does it? Female AND/OR male fan service?

    I'm pretty used to all the boobs and butts by now, but it can still get annoying.

    I'm all for any kind of manservice for us ladies though.

    It's a pretty rare gem to find nowadays, so I'm not bothered by it.
