  • Sad to love someone who already belonged to someone else?

    Just like a song. What can I do .... only keep telling myself, we are not meant for each other. Try to cheer me up by saying perhaps we can be together in the next life if there is any.

    Waiting for someone to heal the pain. .... just hang in. It is not the end of the world.

  • The Wimbledon Grandslam, do all tennis players get the same amount of per dium regardless of seeding players?

    I understand this grandslam events, the organizer does give daily per-dium allowance to the qualified players. However I am not sure the amount would be different to the seeding and unseeding players.

    I sent this question to the commentator, Vijay Armitraj during the tournament but unfortunately no reply.

  • Having difficulty in retaining the housemaid. All suggestions are welcome.?

    I have difficulty in keeping the housemaid in my country. I used to spoil them by providing them all those goodies such as a nice room of their own, shower with hot water, buy them snacks whenever I have a chance, treating them as if they were one of my families. Sadly, I failed and I started to look at myself that caused the high turnover. But none so I blamed it on my luck.

    My friend gave me advice jockinly said the secret of retaining maids is to win their hearts and souls. Put the love on them and they will never leave you .... if you know what I mean. I didn't take his advice as my wife is a very jealous woman. Also I'll never cheat on her.

    Sorry, come back to my question. I know money is not only the solution but caring also. In my country, the demand in housemaid is much higher than the supply. Many here are also facing this kind of people. We used to try service from the agent but we found out that they were mostly unreliable.

  • An unwelcomed invitation to party. How should I turn it down in a nice and friendly way?

    I received an unexpected invitation to the dinner party by my old friend. The invitation to attend this party costs money as the host put in an invitation card as 100 bucks and it will go to one of the charity foundations.

    I find it awkard to decline his invitation straight forward as I don't want to offend him. How should I say it in a nice way to him perhaps I might just take it as no-show attitude and forget about receiving this invitation.

    Personally, I feel this is definitely not a proper way in sending an invitation to friends for fund raising.

  • Best way to maintaining good loving family. Just wanna share with you.?

    My marriage has been ups and downs due to me getting out of line. Many times it has shaken my marriage up to the limit. Thanksfully, I have come to realize that I am a fool for letting my mind wondering around or being playful.

    I say the most important way to keep marriage staying healthy is to only see the good sides of your wife. No matter what is happening stay focused. Be loyal to your wife.

  • An uncalled manner from an old lady to my behaviour. What should I do?

    This incident just happened to me last week while I was walking to the main entrance of the hotel there I saw an old lady who was walking to the same direction with her both hands occupied by stuff. So I held the door opened for her to come in then she said thanks to me. I didn't say anything to her but just smiled to her. While we were walking towards the lift she said to me "What kind of a man are you. You have no manner without saying you're welcome". This comes as a surprise to me as I never expect her to show any appreciation in me holding the door for her. Her remark has caused me an upset. I thought to myself this devil lady is very rude to me. I thought I should have left the door closed and don't be bothered how she could find trouble in coming in. Well, for the past days I tried to forget what the old lady said to me. So far I have not succeeded yet.

  • Does anyone know how to get rid of lizard? What lizard is afraid of?

    The lizard to what I mean is the type that crawl on the wall inside and outside the house.

    My mother has the most fear of this type of pet. So afraid so much so that just by looking at it making her shrivering.

    I tried so many things starting from using all kind of the spray insects. Spray it on the wall inside my mother room but it doesn't scare the lizard away. Someone even advise me to apply the DDT on to the walking trail. Nothing seems to work, I also seeked advice from the pet control specialist but they claim nothing can be done. They said they are the pet busters and they kill all kind of pets except lizard.

    I wonder any one can help me out. Your advice is greately appreciated.

  • An expression, "if you have it why not flaunt it". "They can only look but can't touch".

    I said this expression to many of my girlfriends. Some agree and some don't, I say the ratio is 50 to 50.

    I still have doubt in my saying whether it is correct.

    I guess it depends on the type of the ladies if they are a bit daring they would agree with me but on the contrary if they are shy they will disagree.

    Obviously, it is better to have it than not. This way you may choose when and who you do want to show off.

  • To all the men who have the same experience !!!! Don' t let it happen to you.?

    Yes, it is sad you belonged to someone else when the right one comes along. This is written in one of the songs I couldn't remember the name of the song. But every time I hear this song it reminded me of her and gave me the sad feelings.

    It was very difficult for me but for the love of my family I managed to stop seeing this girl.

    I have no question to ask but wanna share with you. I need no sympty from you and please don't say bad things to me. I know I was wrong and I regretted for what I did to my family. My message to you is don't ever start even just for fun. Cause many times just fun can lead you into so much trouble.

  • In professional tennis, do the men's or ladies doubles have coach?

    I believe most likely they do not have coach. Perhaps if the 2 players play only in doubles (no singles) and also play only doubles game together throghout the years. If this is the case they might engage a coach. Please share your ideas, thanks.

  • Do you think everyone do remember their first kiss untill the day they die?

    Coming to 60, I still do remember my first kiss and the girl I kissed. Actually, it just comes to my mind as I have never thought about it before. Though I am not sure it will stay in my memory for the rest of my life. I guess it would depend more on the degree of feelings that each one had at that point in time. Would you agree, please share your thoughts.

  • How to raise children so the younger one will always respect the elder one?

    We have 2 children both are boys. Since they were young we have been trying to be fair with no bias when it comes to loving and caring. Both are now working but they still have jealousy if one does better than the other. The elder must always give way to the younger one. We don't like to see this happenings. We try to tell the younger one to change this attitude towards his brother. We have been telling them they are brothers and they must love and take care one another. This is what we would like to see from them. So far there are signs of loving between them. We still wonder how some parents can raise their children to respect one another, especially the younger one will respect and obey the elder one simultaneously. We don't know how they could do it.
