1 AnswerComputer Networking1 decade agoIt takes a long time to ejaculate with my girl in bed?
But if I fantasize about certain girlfriends of hers, I then would have no problem coming in just minutes. The problem I have is that my gf is not very physically attractive nor vey active in bed. Shallow men like me need physical attributes to push them over mount, so to speak. How can I improve my performance (taking less time to climax) without buying her breast implants?
Please, I need serious and constructive answers.
4 AnswersMen's Health1 decade agocost to install a swamp cooler in Los Angeles area?
We have a laundromat in Los Angeles and it gets pretty hot in the summer, so we need new swamp coolers in addition to the existing ones.
How much does it cost to install a new swamp cooler in the greater Los Angeles area including parts (swamp cooler, plumbing & electrical) and labor and assuming the swamp cooler is new?
I know there are plenty of USED coolers out on the market so what's the normal going rate to install a used one?
One cost estimate I've recieved so far quotes $5000, that seems awefully high compared to AC.
Thanks in advance.
2 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs1 decade agoI last too long in bed....is that a problem?
Now I need constructive comments or answers. When girlfriend of 2 months and I have sex, almost every time I have to stop about after 20 minutes of penetration and give her oral to get her off coz she says she's already drying up and feeling pain. She comes just fine and I have to resort to either jerking off or stopping altogether. She doesn't like to use any lubricate so once she dries, she stops.
I am not lying or exaggerating but I really can last at least 30 minutes while maintaing erection. Is that too long for a girl to start feeling pain? She seems to naturally lubricate quite well. So am I the problem here? Should I seek ED therapy to make myself last shorter?
Guys in porno seem to last about 20 to 30 minutes so why should my "problem" be a problem?

4 AnswersSnowboarding1 decade agoIs it too early to give her a diamond necklace for Valentine's day?
My gf and I met and dated for a while last year. It didn't work out coz she said she wasn't ready.
In the beginning of the year, we got back together after her long observation for a potential bf.
It's v-day tomorrow and I've already bought this diamond necklace for her (she doesn't know, of coz).
My question is: should it give it to her tomorrow or wait a bit longer after the relationship stabilizes.
I love her a lot and she's also shown a great deal of interest.
Random fact: we are Asian and it's NOT uncommon for an Asian bf to shower their gf with gifts. I have the financial means to afford that. But I want to make sure I am not scaring her becoz jewelry seems to translate to commitment.
3 AnswersValentine's Day1 decade agoWhat does putting my hands in my jacket pockets mean?
My girlfriend claims to know psychology and asks me not to put my hands in the jacket pockets every time we go out. It's a habit of mine so it's hard to ween.
She has no problem with the pant pockets. In general, she just like to correct my walking posture.
If you are a psychologist, what does a person that constantly leaves his hands in pockets tell you? What about walking postures?
9 AnswersPsychology1 decade agoThe cost to maintain a Corvette?
I am looking into buy a 4-7 year old regular corvette (not the Z06) and there are plenty out there with low mileage for reasonable prices.
My question for your fellow proud vette owners: how much do you spend on average to keep your car in tip-top shape assuming the annual mileage is between 5,000 and 10,000.
I know most vette motors and trannies last north of 150k but what about the smaller parts?
3 AnswersChevrolet1 decade agoDo you think I have a chance to get my money back in court?
This guy owns my $8000 since July 07. I've been asking for money back for the last 12 months to no avail. I even drafted a loan installment agreement for him to sign so he didn't have to pay it back in large sums.
Anyway, I am taking it to small claims court.
All I have as evidence is four checks he wrote, dated, and signed when he last borrowed from me that sum up to the total amount owed.
Now what do you think the odds of the judge will rule in my favor? He will most likely deny everything.
If I win and he doesn't have that much money right now, how will the judge assure I get my money back eventually (i.e. garnish his wages)?
Anyway suggestions on how to win the case will be much appreciated. Thanks.
5 AnswersLaw & Ethics1 decade agoHow do I collect debt from someone who doesn't pay? Even after court order?
This guy I know owes me $8000 and hasn't paid a penny back in over a year. I've been asking for the money back to no avail. Every time the excuse is different. Anyway, I am taking him to court. Knowing that the judge will rule in my favor, is there any guarantee that he will pay me? Can I ask the court to garnish the money out of his paycheck or force him to sell personal assets (car or house) to pay me back? I am in California.

1 AnswerOther - Beauty & Style1 decade agoFalse grip or regular grip in bench pressing?
I was confronted with this question today and have no answer for it. I personally use the false grip after most people at the gym. Yet I also read that the conventional grip (thumb around the bar) is safer and more effective.
What is your opinion? Please cite one or two credible sources.

What hair style is best for my face shape?
I don't know what face shape I have but I do know my current hairdo is not a good match for my face.
My hair is slightly wavy and a bit thick. I was consdiering growing it long and thinning it out to give my face a longer look.
What do you think my face shape is and how would you style my hair? A picture example would be nice.
Thank you in advance.
15 AnswersHair1 decade agoDell 700M overheats during XP install?
My 4-year old Dell 700M was virus infected last week so I went ahead to reinstall XP. But every time after the computer boots up from the xp disc and comes to the end of the format screen, the computer just shuts down. I've tried it a few times to no avail. At first I thought it was the hard driver so I low loevel formatted it. The same. So most likely it's caused by overheating.
Does anyone have similar experience with either the 700M or overheating in general? How did you fix the probblem?
4 AnswersLaptops & Notebooks1 decade agoAre more expensive hair products worth the price?
I have normal-dry curly hair. And I keep it short (I am a guy). So I was shopping for a better shampoo, conditioner, or treatment. Somebody recommended Paul Mitchell. Any bottle with that name on it seems to cost at least 4-5 times of a household brand like Garnier Fructis.
My question is: for those with personal experience with expensive/professional hair products, is it worth it to pay for the extra?
5 AnswersHair1 decade agoShould I consider buying a house before getting married? (California only plz)?
I live in Los Angeles. Have two cars, a business, and a stable job. Make 6 figures. So quite a bit is on the line. I am not getting married anytime soon, because you'd need to find a girlfriend first, which I don't have one.
Anyway, in this state, doesn't it make sense to save everything you've got and buy a house before getting married in case the marriage doesn't work out.
I've heard so many horror stories where the husband works so hard only to have half of what he owns taken away after a divorce.
What must I do to keep the house separate from the marriage, such as cutting my own check for the mortgage, paying for all maintenance and upkeep?
Does the same solution apply to a live-in apartment complex?
7 AnswersRenting & Real Estate1 decade agoWhy am I stressing over finding a girlfriend?
I once saw this fortune teller and he was mostly right about everything about me. He even told me I would tie the knot at 32.
Well, I just turned 30 this month and have yet to find a girlfriend. Now I am not talking about getting laid, I am talking about a meaningful relationship in which I can share my life with that special person.
I am a pretty good looking guy and have a stable job. Also own a business, 2 cars and make 6 figures a year. So even though I am not the most desireable bachelor out there, I am confident to say not the least either.
The last girlfriend I had was quite a few years ago. I put off the relationship thing to pursue my career as an engineer and a business owner.
I've been trying to meet that right girl for a while now and am just not having any luck. There are a bunch of female friends around me, but they just don't seem to be what I am looking for.
My question is: I don't know why I am stressing over this. Am I being too picky or should I just let time take its toll and not push things?
3 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoDeciding whether to lease or keep current 2-year-old car?
I own two cars, a commute car in a Toyota Echo (btw, 40+ mpg) and a 2-year-old Hyundai Azera. I have a regular job, which requires 70+ miles of daily commute (that means I can't get rid of the Echo), and own a business 13 miles from home.
Now I want to see if I should lease a sports car for three years and get rid of the Hyundai. I can afford about $350 a month on the lease.
My annual commute for business purpose is about 8000 miles and the current federal mileage reimbursement rate is $.585.
Knowing all this, my question is: would it make sense to sell the Hyundai ($14000 private party value by kbb), lease a new car, write off the lease as tax deductibles, or just keep the Hyundai and write off the mileage as usual because I would lose a lot more money the other way?
Remember my goal is to enjoy driving a sports car, provided that both methods come out about the same. I know I will lose ownership to the Hyundai. That's ok with me.
While at it, can someone suggest a good sports car (non-domestic, please) that can be leased for the price I am willing to pay, including all taxes and depreciation.
Thanks in advance.
