and now that I switched to a different brand, it's dry. I have used Pantene for years. I have heard so many negative things about this brand, but I swear it made my hair beautiful, soft, and I had it extremely long. Any one with any suggestions as to keep my hair soft and silky,please let me know. I want to give other shampoos a try since I heard all the negative talk. ... But if nothing else works, I'm going back to Pantene. :)

got a prescription for Chantix. I have heard so many negative things about the nasty side effects that I don't know what's worse... Well I do, but how do I start Chantix and give it a far shot without freaking out from hearing all the negativity? Please respond if you have personal experience as well. Thanks to all who answer.

for sure way to get a splash of nail polish out of blue jeans. They are light in color and I accidentally splashed some onto my capri jeans. I sprayed them with Advanced Gel Shout and let it soak over night. I already washed them.. Is it too late to save them? Thanks to all that answer.

Yes I know that they are junk. Well the problem is I have 87 Kodak Albums on the E-machines and I recently got a HP. I can't even get into the E-machines because once I log on, everything from the desktop disappears. Does anyone have any suggestions how to and if I can safely get my pics off that computer and into the new one? Thanks everyone.

a position at my apartment complex. I was interviewed by the owners and a over-see manager. I accepted the position going by what they told me. The problem arises that there is another woman that works there. I was told that she was going "out the door" because of bringing her children to the office.

Well I worked with her for a couple days and ended up being her personal babysitter while she showed apartments. She has done this on several occasions. The owner called me a few days later and asked me how things were going. I told her fine except for I didn't know I was being hired as a day-care provider. I do like this other woman, but it's not fair to me to sit and clean up vomit, garbage with dirty diapers, and watch her child. I have my own son to raise for God's sake. Anyway, the other woman is now only working 2 hours at night and I work during the day. She is furious and won't even speak to her friend that works at their main office. Why is it that I feel guilty for telling the truth and letting the owner know my feelings? Am I in the wrong? I was told that she was going to be let go eventually, but I still feel bad at the same time. Thanks for all who answer.

I have always been more comfortable around men as friends. Well my fiance' doesn't like it one bit. He said that he doesn't trust other men, but he trusts me. I have only one female close friend and she's not around often because she works. Men, why is it that you don't want your ladies to have male friends? You should trust your partner not the friends.

I recently lost a lot of weight and I have a lot more confidence then I did ever in my life. I see men staring at me all the time, holding doors, telling my I'm hot, but I'm not used to this. Don't get me wrong, it's so nice to hear and see it, but my question is: I am starting to think about being with other men, I am engaged to be married and he is a wonderful man and step-dad to my son. We have been together going on 7 years. How do I stop thinking like this? I never acted on anything. I would have the heart to break it off, I couldn't cheat on him, but now I'm thinking for once in my life, "I do look good!" Maybe I just changed, but he is ignoring me now, and just watches me to see who's looking at me. It makes me crazy. Help!!

this numbness and tingling down my right side. It starts from the butt-cheek and goes down to my toes. Sometimes I can't even step on the gas pedal in the car. It feels like my foot is asleep. I heard this could be sciatic nerve. Is this possible? Also the other problem is I can't lift either arm above my head for too long or they go numb. I mean that it's less then 30 seconds and it's numb. I don't think this is normal. Could this be circulation problems? Thanks to all.

For the last two weeks I have been driving my son to school due to medical problems. Well when I started driving him I ran into an old boyfriend who is now working at my sons school. We have had a few conversations in the morning while I am getting my son's books ready. He doesn't work on that floor, but we seem to keep running into each other. The talks are limited and just things about the past, not about US. Well this morning my same routine, I hear someone come up behind me and tell me to be careful today because of the snow we are supposed to get. It was the ex. I told him thank you and he just stood there and we kept staring at each other. He turned to leave and went around the corner and my son said "well someone has a crush on you!" I wanted to die. I asked my son why would he say that. He said, Come on mom! I don't understand. I know that my ex is single because he keeps saying so, however I am not. Am I making a big deal out of nothing? or could there be sparks again? Thanks for your help.

keep calling to talk to our son, and then ask for me. Every time he talks to me he tells me things about his current marriage and now last night, he asked me if I could remember if I got sick while I was pregnant with our son. He wanted to know because his wife has been vomiting and she thinks she's pregnant. Why does he keep coming to me about this? I've asked him to talk to his wife, but he always calls me first. It really bothers me. It's like he's trying to rub things in my face. I told him that I didn't mind talking to him, but not about our personal relationships. It's not my business, nor is it his with my life. His main concern should be our son. Thanks for your help.

I recently lost 64 pounds and I didn't work out a day since I starting my change of eating habits. I have saggy skin under my arms, and my belly. Yeah, I know it's gross, but I am very proud of myself for my weight loss. I need serious answers to tighten up my underarms, and belly. Thanks everyone.

and I have this dry stretchy skin under my neck. As you can gather, I used to have a very full face, double chin if you will. I was wondering if anyone can truly recommend a skin care product to tighten up my skin under my neck. This is embarrassing. I look like a dang turkey! LOL! It's not hanging or anything, but I notice it, and I hate it. Thanks.

My ex hubby lives 6 hours away. Our son is having surgery on the 24th of this month. He told my son he would come down for the surgery and spend the night at the hospital. I was willing to politely go home, since he doesn't see him often. Anyway, now he said he can't make it because work won't give him off. Yesterday he calls me to say goodnight to our son, and he voluntarily tells me he "had" to take the night off because his new wife was drunk. He is constantly letting our son down and I am sick of having to give excuses to him for cover for his dad's bull. I have a fiance' and he is even taking off for the surgery. Any opinions?? Thanks to all.

movie ever? I'm just curious to find out what ladies love a certain movie.

I was subpoenaed to court as a witness for a neighborhood teen. I trusted this teen around my family. I would prefer not to say what the teen went to court for, except it was for another boy who is younger. The younger boy and my son were friends until this incident. Now that I was in court for the teen, I'm afraid that the other boy will start harassing my son. He has done it in the past. The other boy is a liar and very manipulating. No matter what he does, his mother believes him. I don't want to have to resort to a restraining order, however I don't want future problems for my son. Any suggestions? I also would prefer not to have any contact with his mom and dad also. I am nervous that they will be upset because I was against their child in court. I didn't have a choice, if I didn't go to court, I could of been held in contempt. Also we live in an apartment community with about 13 buildings. We are two buildings away from this boy. He attends my son's school as well. Thanks to everyone.

extremely dry skin? I have cracked, dry, skin around my finger tips and cuticles. I have tried using Neutrogena Hand Lotion, and that still doesn't work. I am ruining my clothes because my fingers are snagging my shirts. I am open to suggestions. Thanks to every1 who answers.

a car rev if you are not giving it gas? Could it be the throttle is stuck? I had to put it in park and shut it off because it was going by itself down the road. I gave it a little gas and it took off. I got to the stop light and the engine was reving really loud like I was going 100 mph! Anyone with any ideas? Thanks. It's a 94 Pontiac Grand Am.

Celebrity Rehab on VH-1? What the hell happened to Jeff? I had such a crush on him when he was younger. My God that man is a mess. How did his addiction to pain pills start? I missed the beginning of the show so I just tuned in two weeks ago. Thanks.

that Vitamin B Complex is good to relieve stress and anxiety? Thanks everyone.

a party tonight at a local pub. How should I introduce my bf's boss and wife? Should I say "This is Tom's boss Tim and his wife Jill?" Or is it best to say "This is Tom's friend and boss Tim and his wife Jill?" I am just curious as to how I should do it properly. We are all layed back and easy going. This isn't a formal party. Just pizza and beer. We won a party for best halloween costumes. Nothing fancy. Thanks for everyone's advice.
