Is it foolish of me to think I'll never meet anyone?
I'm a young guy and I haven't had much experience with women. Been on a date or two and had some girls that I liked, but never really got anywhere. Honestly, I'm kinda shy and I have trouble approaching women in public or even talking to them. So I know that will hold me back, I've tried to change, but I really don't think changing myself will do any good for me in the long term. I don't really "go out" to places as I always feel awkward in social situations. I realize these traits of my personality will restrict the chances I get in my life. But I just really don't see myself meeting anyone that I could really connect with, and thats no offense to any single women out there. I don't think I'm ugly, but definitely not super attractive, something else that could hurt me down the line. So what do you think?
3 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoAm I doing the right thing here?
My girlfriend told me earlier today that an ex-boyfriend of hers showed up at her work and forced her into a bathroom stall and stuck his penis in her mouth. It made me sick when she first told me, but seeing as she was forced and didn't want to do it, I forgave her. She seemed really sorry about it and she has never lied to me before, so I didn't really have a choice. I had to forgive, as it would have been foolish of me to break up just over that. I really love this girl, and she said I was the first guy she has ever really loved. Am I making the right choice here?
1 AnswerSingles & Dating1 decade agoHow do I avoid being insecure in my relationship?
I have been with my girlfriend for about 8 months now, and we have a great relationship. She says she is very much in love with me, and I feel the same. We haven't had any problems so far yet, smooth sailing pretty much. Now before this relationship, my past experiences had been pretty hurtful. I had been led on, lied to, and all that bad stuff, but things that most people go through, but they still hurt nonetheless. I can't get over the feeling that my girlfriend is not really out looking for someone else, but hoping one might come along. I think she said a few months ago that she went out with me because she wouldn't find anyone else, but she said she didn't look at me as a last resort, I never really did figure that out all the way. Sometimes I get the feeling that she is with me only because there isn't anyone else for her, or thats what she says at least. But if I ask her this, she'll think I don't love or trust her, or think that I don't want it to work out. I guess the reason I ask is because I'm not used to being treated like she does to me, which is very well. I really find it hard to believe that she loves me as much as she says she does. I mean, there isn't anything that special about me, I'm not very good looking or do I consider myself fun, I don't have a great job and I'm pretty shy. She tends to go to parties a lot and drinks most of the time, which makes me nervous because she might forget about me and do something with some other guy. How can I avoid being insecure?
2 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoI don't really like my major or my college for that matter?
I attend an online university and am enrolled in a software systems engineering program. I have found that I don't particularly like the online learning environment and I don't think its for me. I realize that school isn't easy, but I don't think for one moment that I have enjoyed taking the courses that I have been taking. Don't get me wrong, I like computers, but I'm not so sure I want a career in the computer field. So, the only question I really have is what would you do if you were me? And can you maybe give me some suggestions on what I could try? I like to work with my hands with things I can actually touch. Thank you.

I'm not talking about foreplay and pillow talk and that other stuff. I'm just talking about intercourse. How long do you like your guy to last?
2 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoIs my girlfriend pregnant?
Her and I had sex 8 days ago. I used a condom, and my penis never came in contact with her vagina without a condom on. I checked it during intercourse and it looked fine. I checked it afterward and it wasn't leaking. She told me on yesterday that she is late on her period by 5 or 6 days. But she has also had quite a bit of stress this past week. She has also been working in the heat everyday. One other thing, she also had a horseback riding accident, too. Could these factors be why she is late? I mean, we we're safe as we could be. What do you think? She is gonna get tested in a week or two.
4 AnswersPregnancy1 decade agoHow to get your real age back?
I have a friend whos parents have lied about her age. She is really 18, but for some reason or another her parents have documents that say she is 14. They have her original birth certificate that says she is 18, but for whatever reason they chose to lie about it. Probably just to control her. How would someone go about getting this straightened out? Would you have to go to court over it?
5 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoDo you think my girlfriend wants to be with me forever?
Me and her have been going out for about 7 months now. We are deeply in love. I really feel that she makes me a better person and she said I do the same for her. The physical attraction is there and we get along. I am starting to feel a deep emotional connection with her when we are together. I am being totally honest when I say I cannot picture myself without this girl. She has said things like, "Your everything I want" or "It would kill me to see you leave my life." I trust her 110% and she said she trusts me more than anything. She says she loves me more than anything. I am probably answering my own questions with all the evidence I provided, but I wanted to ask. I just never would think that at 20, I could meet someone who I'd want to spend forever with. She is 18. Do you think she really wants to be with me forever?
3 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoWhen will her parents finally let go?
Hello, everyone. I am 20 years old and my girlfriend is 18, her and I love each other very much. She has told me numerous times she wants to be with only me and she wants to be with me forever, as I do, too. I cannot imagine myself without this girl. But her parents are so controlling, they don't like her being with guys, like myself. Everytime we hang out, I always have to leave earlier than I would like because she doesn't want her parents to find out. I don't want to find out either, but it's so hard. From what I've heard from her, her father seems like a good guy, and I don't really have a problem with him. Her mom is the one that abuses her and belittles her just to make her feel bad. Her and I were actually keeping our relationship secret for a while, not from everyone, just her parents. But I knew they would find out eventually, as they did yesterday. We were watching the 4th of July fireworks, and unfortunately both her parents found out. So God knows what they're doing to her now. That leads into another problem. I know she has had a bad past with relationships and everything. She even told me she's been raped twice. I'm not sure if thats why or not, but her parents have lied about her age for several years now. They actually have documents that say she is 14 years old. She says she doesn't know why they would do that, and she hates it. I mean, she really is 18, not 14, so don't say I'm going out with a minor. She is 18. But its so hard and it kills me that I can't do anything about it. I don't want to leave this girl and she wants to stay with me, but her parents just won't let go. I mean, they have to eventually right? They can't hold her forever. Another problem is that they have blocked me from texting or calling her at all, so I can't even tell her I love her and want to stay. I know this is a lot, but if you read the whole thing, your a good person. What can I do?

When you go in to renew when it's about to expire, do they take a new photo of you? I was curious because the picture I have sucks and barely looks like me anymore. Do I need any other documents when I renew?
1 AnswerInsurance & Registration1 decade agoNeed a little help with Excel?
I need to write a formula in Excel to calculate commission. Let me give you an example. Fred is a sales employee and made $4,500 in sales, which has a 12.5% commission rate. But I also have to compare it to an hourly rate. He worked 30 hours that week and has a pay rate of $10 an hour. Whichever is higher is the pay that Fred gets. I need to write a formula that will figure this out. Anyone got any ideas?
2 AnswersSoftware1 decade agoWould a girl who loves you very much cheat on you?
Im 20 and my girlfriend is 18. When we first started talking, I didnt think it would go anywhere. but i have to admit that i totally fell in love with the girl. we have hung out a few times and she said she loves spending time with me and seeing me. we even had sex once and it was great, she said she was very satisfied and that I was the best she ever had. she said i was so gentle and that i was great at everything. she says that she is so afraid of being dumped and i said i never would( the truth). she talks about her future and wants to include me in it. she said she is so in love with me. I'll admit that she might be a bit insecure, but so am i a little bit. she told me she wouldnt cheat on me and would always be with me. am I just being too paranoid here?
4 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoTrying to install Windows Updates?
I usually get an error code 646 when I'm trying to install updates. What I usually do is go to the Microsoft Downloand Center and manually install the updates. That works for just about every update that won't install on its own. But now I'm having trouble with one update. It's a security update for 2007 Microsoft Office. When I try to install the update myself, it always says the installation has failed. I tried disabling the firewall and turning off virus protection. It still does not work. My computer is a Dell Inspiron laptop. This is the only update that has given me problems. Any ideas to get this one installed?
1 AnswerSecurity1 decade agoReally embarrassing sex question here?
I had sex with my girlfriend not two hours ago. It was my first time and she had been with a few guys before. Everything was going well, but I couldn't climax. I was a little nervous, do you think that might have been the problem? I have to admit, even up to today I had been somewhat of a frequent masturbator, usually once a day. That might have been the problem, too. I may have answered my own question, but I wanted a few other opinions. Thanks.

3 AnswersHunting1 decade agoFront brakes making strange and annoying sounds?
My front disc brakes make strange sounds when I'm just about to come to a stop. It's not a grinding sound, more like a dry, creaking noise. The brakes work totally fine but the sound is just annoying. It seems like whenever the brakes are wet they still work fine and they don't make the noise. They've been like that for a while now and I was wondering what I could do to stop the noise. Or is just something thats come about from my driving habits? I don't ride the brakes hard nor do I use them heavily and I'm just wondering what causes the noise. Thanks for your help.
3 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs1 decade agoCheck engine light from gas cap (expanded)? a little help from Mad Jack?
I asked this question a few days ago. I drive a 2002 malibu and the check engine light came on from the gas cap. I took it to the repair shop and the mechanic told me the same thing. The next few days the light was not on, but then just last sunday i went to go get gas. As i pulled into the station the light was not on. After filling up and making sure the cap clicks three times, the light came back on. This question is aimed at you Mad Jack, you said the same happened to your malibu. Did it ever happen again? I did buy a new cap just in case the old one was faulty. I know there isnt anything wrong with my car but that check engine light is soo annoying. Thanks Mad Jack. oh and if anyone else has had this problem please chime in with your thoughts.
4 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs1 decade agoCheck engine light from gas cap?
I drive an 02 Chevrolet Malibu. Last week, the check engine light came on and I took it to the repair shop since it needed an oil change anyway. He said it was the gas cap, and thats what I thought as well. Just yesterday, I went to go fill up and after I was finished the light came back on again. I made sure the gas cap clicked three times when I tightened it, but the light stays on. Now I havent driven it since then but I heard it may take a few trips for it to turn off. Or does mine need to be replaced? thanks for any help
