  • Anyone else living with a boyfriend with adhd?

    I'm living with a wonderful guy, and he has adhd. It can be both exhilarating to be with him, and yet so lonely. He goes from warm to cold in little time. I can say things that both please him one moment and then he is mad over the exact same thing in an hour (or less).

    I have read up on the affliction and have tried to learn to talk to him in ways someone with adhd can understand. In my everyday life, and in my past life, I have been very 'in your face' and open and honest. I can't be me anymore. I feel both lonely and frustrated.

    Don't want to run away and hide, I just need help learning how to communicate better. Is there anything someone else has used to both communicate and yet not lose your true self to this???

    I do love him and accept this. Just need some help, guidance on communication skills I don't have and some assurance that I can do this.

  • ADULT ONLY question on relationships!!! NO teens! Please!?

    What do you do when you are made into the suga momma? The cook? The cleaner? The one who is made to feel guilty over nothing??/ I've stated my case with my fiance, thought I was getting somewhere and yet here I am HATING to come home. He says "talk" to him, so I do. With NO results. I feel as if I'm not in love but in my heart I am. Am I tricking myself into it, or am I really ready to cut loose? To let everyone know............I hate coming home. I feel depressed. I feel used. I feel emotionally abused. And my teen kids feel the same way...........but in a different way obviously. :) And WHY do I feel the need to stay with someone who is obviously below me and my kids?? My self-esteem is not that low! Trust me. God, think I need a brain scan to figure it all out. This is not a joke, but the one and only way I can deal with the stress of my dead-end life!!! Only thing I have is my kids and I don't want to lose them over an idiot! Serious answers only! No kids or teen

  • Huge white "things" under my eyes?

    I have what looks like heavy white (under the skin) puses on my eyes. I heard it may be melia, but it would be a larger amount thereof. I hear it's from heavy products on my eyes and that gives it an inability to exfoliate because of these women eye products.

    Anyone with this problem? What did you get for help, either by doctors (which I CAN'T afford) or by natural remedies. I would appreciate any and all help. Oh, if I go to the doctor for surgery, it would cost me $450 per eye and I have 2 large white marks on each eye. This is the reason I can't afford surgery.

    Please help me!!! I can't stand looking at my eyes any longer. They used to be beautiful, now I'm ashamed!

    Thanks to all with "good" help!!!

    I'd appreciate home remedies, and something other than sticking needles in my eyes to drain them........like pimples. I'm a wimp!! What can I say??!! LOL

  • Slow Computer - Using Windows XP?

    I've read answers on XP but none seem to fit my problem so let me say first, I do apologize for reasking questions on XP, but I'm about to throw mine out in the snowbank...lol. My problem is this: I've deleted all files (pics, music, etc. that are personal). I've uninstalled all programs not needed. I've cleaned up all temp files, etc. I've scanned disk and defragged a dozen times. I have Defender, Spybot and PC Extermiate, & deleted bad files (37 in total). My fiance downloaded and I uninstalled SP2 as both microsoft and other computer smart people said it was for IT professions (which I am not) and it didn't do my puter any good. I found files saved from internet, now all gone. There isn't much more I can delete without getting into programs needed to run XP. What am I missing here? Is there something else I can try to speed up my computer? And I am so sick and tired of losing my internet connection, another problem I have. Any and all help would be appreciated. Thanks!!

  • 1998 Saturn SL2 Question for serious answerers only?

    I have a 1998 Saturn SL2. It starts up normal, sounds normal, no noise at all while in idle or while driving on road. Problem is that when I stop at a stop sign, or slow down to turn somewhere (store, or whatever) my RPM's drop to below 100. It usually sits just slightly above 100 in idle. I've already replaced the battery, just had the oil changed last week, checked spark plugs, wiring, etc. But for some reason, it continues to do this. It's at the point that I hate knowing I have to drive it to work (25 minutes away) in case in breaks down and I'm stuck at work.

    Could it be as simple as a dirty fuel injector filter? Or is it my battery (which is only 6 months old and top of the line)? Again, there's no noise, car doesn't sound like it's laboring, just the RPMs drop way too low, almost to the point of conking out. More frustrating than anything and causing me concern since I need this car, especially as a single-mom with 2 kids.

    Serious answers only please!!

  • For step parents ONLY please!?

    Am I the only one out there that does not like their step-child? I have tried to be friends with him but to no avail. I've spent money I don't have on the little ungrateful brat. My hubby and I fight because of lies being told by my step-child and even when proved he lied, I am still in crap with hubby because I'm supposed to be the mature one. This happens with my bio child too.

    We eat what the kid wants, go where the kid wants, watch TV programs that the kid wants and the kid "Is the best in the world" while my own child gets picked on, can't watch her own shows, spends majority of her time in her room (with me) mad about the step-kid, plus has no say in what we eat, etc.

    My child has a bedtime, and goes when I say so. His kid stays up 1/2 the night, blatting from being overtired, and again he's the best and just a little kid (he is 9, not a baby).

    I love my hubby. But this kid is making me regret marrying a second time. Anyone else disliking their step-child/ren

  • What's that white mark under my eye???!!!!!?

    About 3 years ago, I noticed a small whitish bump (almost pimple like, but flat and has no inside substance) under my eye. Today, it is quite large (about 1/2 inch long, but still flat), and 3 doctors have told me different things and my confusion is at an all time high.

    I tried to look them up on the internet, but since doctor's can't tell me precisely what it is, I don't know what to call it let alone search for it. And frankly, I'm tired of plastering on the concealer to hide it. I have never worn make-up in my life and now I can't go outside without it.

    Does anyone here have this under their eyes, know someone as a friend / family member with the same thing, or even heard of this? I'd like to find a home therapy I can do to get rid of it, as surgery will cost me $1,500 and a 50% chance of blindness if they cut my eye open by mistake.

    Please, please, please help me. I"m at my wits end!!!!!

  • Questions and prejudice against those that answer?

    Why is it that when someone posts a question they get upset about your answer, even if it's with honesty? Does anyone agree that you shouldn't be asking things on here if you don't want an actual answer. I've got one person (gachildofgod) that I answered a question of hers, and since then it's every 10 minutes I get an email calling me a moron, s-l-u-t, byotch (wrong spelling, but that's her spelling not mine) and then told me to take it to the message board. So, here I am. Please answer me why does someone pose a question if they don't want an answer?

    Has anyone else had a problem like I'm having? If so, can you tell me how to block someone on here or do I just have to keep taking this persons abuse? So far, everyone else has been nice, ga is ruining this whole thing. I'm sure she isn't the only one.
