I keep thinking that I must be the only person in the world who actually doesn't go ballistic when dumped or start slandering the soon to be ex boyfriend to his face when deciding to call it quits... or am I? Have you ever had a peaceful breakup where two adult people have admitted they no longer get along together and just work towards making life for each other as stress free as possible after that? Does peace between exes exist? I'd love to hear a happy 'ending' story.

My daughter was around three and she had a particular friend called 'Shelley'. For a while I hadn't heard her mention 'Shelley' and asked her why. She replied, "She's on holiday." A couple of months later we were driving along and a waft of air rustled through the car. My daughter was suddenly gleeful, "Oh wow! Shelley! You're back! Mom mom, Shelley's back from her holiday in Queensland!" Then all I heard for the rest of the trip was a one sided conversation she was having with Shelley, questions she posed and answers she was giving to her invisible friend.

Years later when I had another daughter, this one pointed to the ceiling one evening and started laughing. "Oh look mom, look at all my friends up there, they've come to visit," she said. The older daughter who was eight years old by then piped in, "Where? Where? That's not fair mom, I only had one friend and she gets to have a roomful!" I couldn't stop laughing.

Are imaginary friends just mentally real to them or could they be picking up on spirits?

He said he made it up to see what my reaction would be, to see how much I love him. I went into feelings numbness for those weeks wondering if I should just forgive him. By the 3rd week I was angry inside for being so passive since he 'gave me details' and said he was NOT remorseful, that I drove him to it. We got engaged six months ago. I was working on a book outside of time at work so spent very few hours with him in his waking company so i do feel I am somewhat responsible for him feeling so alone but still... A colleague at work has told me he likes me but knows I am engaged.. I'm just starting to think some people just love drama...

My partner has been a beautiful person for the two years we have been together. My first reaction to his affair admission was disbelief. I laughed at him and told him he was telling me a joke. Then he kept at it until I believed him. I don't think he understands that now, I won't know when he tells me something whether it is the truth or something made up... it's difficult after such a major lie, even though he says he didn't have an affair after all. I just want to hear your thoughts on this as I am feeling a dead weight of confusion at present.

We attribute our emotions to come from our heart? Or is it from our thoughts? But where are they generated and how does one actually measure it scientifically?

Do you deep kiss or lip peck? I just found it strange that the new guy I am seeing likes to keep his eyes open while kissing me. Is this strange to anyone else?

Like has someone ever threatened you and then gone out of their way to make the threat real? Let me hear about it. My ex was a known dealer and when I escpaed from him, he made my life hell and it took me years of living in fear to finally get away from him.

I do not really believe in zombies but does voodoo actually work or is it mind play?

Or heroine? Have you made a difference in someone's life by something you did or said? What did you do and why?

I am wondering what the point of starring a question is. If you star a question does that mean you find it interesting and other people in your contact list are alerted to that question or is there some greater significance that I am not grasping?

I've often wondered what the point would be for aliens to visit us. What could be the attraction? Are we the laughing stock of the Universe and they are only here to learn from our mistakes or could we be used for experiments, like we are the rats in a science lab? What kind of experiments? What about earth and its inhabitants would have them return again and again. Could we have resources they don't?

If you do, why? My sister is 42 and she is very sporty and keeps herself in great shape. The younger guys flock to her like bees to nectar. Would it be because she looks hot or because she is older? I am older than her but cringe when younger men try to chat me up. Just wondering, that's all.

Someone on here asked who in your family you don't like and it brought on a flood of answers for such a negative question, so here's a question that should make you think about someone you do appreciate... let's get the good vibes back! Who makes you happy and why?

What are your thoughts about what he is trying to tell the world and about his authenticity as claiming to be Jesus?

I have heard him speak twice now, because I was not so convinced the first time. I was less sceptical the second time around and I am by far more a sceptic than Christian (of any denomination)...

Any thoughts?

I would like a little more than just Tahiti or Maldives or Paris... if anyone has been to a specific location that is romantic and worth a couple of lovebirds going to, I would love to hear your story and the name of place and if possible, the motel/hotel... A well-deserved break is coming up and I want to make it special.

12 years ago I had my tubes tied (they call it something different these days) and six years later, after a split with my husband, I married someone else and he had had a vasectomy but wanted a child together. We got our miracle son when I turned 40, an IVF child.

But last weekend, my partner noticed milky secretions coming from my nipples. My sister thinks I am pregnant. A pregnancy test says no I'm not. I see my doctor tomorrow, but my period is late by 4-5 days.

Can anyone enlighten me as to what might be happening? Am I going into menopause? Have Thyroid problems? Any suggestion could be helpful if I can check it further. Cheers.

We all know what it is like to breathe in a little ocean air. The smell always seems to be the same (apart from the occasional dead animal or rotting seaweed odour)... but what component of the sea makes it smell the way it does?

I watched Serendipity tonight and I have watched The Notebook so many times. I dream of love like that, but is that just a far-fetched notion or does it really happen to people?
