So my boyfriend and I have been living together for about a year now and his birthday is coming up. I really want to get him a grill for his birthday, but I know almost nothing about them. I want to get him a good one that will last a few years- not the cheapest one on the market, but on the other hand I don't have a ton of money to spend. I'm looking in the 400 dollar range. I have heard Weber grills are a good brand- is there any truth to that? Also should I go with charcoal, gas, or electric? I'm very confused. Thanks!

I'm considering moving to Central Florida in about a year. I have always loved the Orlando area, so I'd like to live there. However, I'm nervous about the possibility of sinkholes. I know they are very common in the area, and I CERTAINLY don't want my house to get swallowed in a sinkhole- or worse, myself or my family. My question is, would there be any way for me to have land tested before I build on it/have the land tested where a house I want to buy is to make sure it doesn't have sinkholes? Is there any way to know for sure or would it be more like "it's unlikely" that a sinkhole would form under my house?

What kinds of jobs can one get in Orlando or surrounding areas with a degree in Management Information Systems?

My boyfriend has a sister who is four years younger than us, so in her late teens. They were never too close growing up, but he tells me that in the year or so before he met me they became closer. I think that's great, since I'm an only child and only wish I had siblings that I could be close to. Anyways, for the first year of our relationship, there were no problems. Then, my father passed away and my boyfriend and I got a lot closer and that's when the problems began. His sister began to get really clingy with him. Any time I was around she would push herself to sit by him and always want to be near him. He doesn't seem to notice that anything is different, but I sure do!

There is also some suggestive physical contact between them. He puts his arm around her waist sometimes and also the other day at dinner he was rubbing her leg. I know I'm an only child and I may not understand sibling relationships but this just seems odd to me. Also I feel like whenever we are with them she is always trying to push me out of the way to walk by him and keep me out of conversation. I'm jealous because this relationship seems to be odd and I'm worried that if this is the way it is after us dating for two years, it will be much worse if one day we have been married for 20. I am afraid to talk to him about it, because I don't want him to think I'm irrationally jealous, and I also don't want to be given the whole "You're an only child, you'd never understand" runaround.

A lot of things I've read say "Well, she's his sister, you'll just have to deal with it!" But I think that's wrong. I shouldn't have to deal with this forever just because she is his sister.

Thanks!

P.S. I just want to be clear that I IN KNOW WAY want them to stop talking. I WANT him to have a good relationship with his sister, but I think that sometimes it crosses boundaries and I don't know what to do.

I have just recently moved in with my boyfriend. Now that we are settled in, we want to bring his cat. He is an 11 year old male who has lived with a younger female cat most of his life. I am getting a new cat from a friend. He is a stray who she found on her porch and has been feeding.We have no idea of his age, but he does not seem to have a problem with other cats as a whole because he sees her cat through the window and does not get hostile. Both of them will be neutered when they arrive at the apartment. How should we go about introducing them to avoid fighting, and what should we do when fighting does occur? Thanks!

P.S. This is a repost but a user put a very rude answer on the last on I posted so I had to post this one.

I'm a little stumped about what to get my boyfriend's parents for Christmas. We have been dating over a year now, and last year we didn't do anything for each other's families because we hadn't been dating very long. This year I want to do something, but I still don't know his parents very well (we are in college together so I don't actually see his family often). I want to get his parents a joint gift, like a gift basket of different kinds of snacks, but his mom is allergic to Fructose, and I don't know what kinds of foods I can get that she can eat. I wanted to get them some sort of Edible Arrangement or Harry and David's basket. but I don't know what she can eat. Please help me!

I have been dating my current boyfriend for a little over a year. We are both 20 years old and in college. He is a very low maintenance guy, and he isn't too into sports or hunting or anything like that. I am at a complete loss as to what to get him for Christmas. I'm not very good with crafts, so making any cute albums or anything is pretty much out of the question. Last event (our anniversary) I got a caricature made of us and I got him a new Columbia jacket and some candy.

We are going to Orlando together this May, and we will be visiting Disney Universal, Sea World, and Kennedy Space Center, and the only idea I've had so far is to get him something for our trip, but I don't know what to get him!

I just don't know what to get him! I'd really like to get him something for our trip, but I just don't know what. Any ideas are GREATLY appreciated.

P.S. I am looking to spend about $50-$100. It doesn't matter if I buy one nice thing or a few cheaper things, I just want to spend approximately that much one him! Thank you!

Hi,

I'm 19 years old and in college. my boyfriend and I have had unprotected sex twice in the past two weeks. I am on the Birth Control pill Lessina and have taken it within the same two hour window every day for the past 3 months, since I started this new pill. The first time was only a day or two after my period, and he pulled out, but I know this is never a foolproof plan. The other time was just a few days ago, and he finished inside me. I know I wouldn't be feeling symptoms from that time yet, but I was wondering if I may be at risk for pregnancy. My only symptom really is a light nauseated feeling that seems to last all day instead of just in the mornings, and I feel like I'm a little bloated. However, I'm not sure if these are real symptoms or if this is just me worrying myself sick about it. Do you think I could be pregnant? And if so, how many days before my period can I take a test?

Hello,

I am a 19 year old girl. Ever since I can remember, I have had severe abandonment issues. I have no idea why, I am an only child with great parents who have been married for 30 years. I was never abandoned as a child, and yet, I have always been afraid that I am going to be left behind by those that I love. Any time my parents go anywhere, especially together, I get nervous that they will get into a car accident and die, or that something else terrible will happen. If they don't answer their phones while out, I will begin to panic and develop a scenario in my head, and begin to convince myself that something happened to them. The same goes for my boyfriend. If he doesn't text me back, or if I hear that there was any sort of accident where he lives, I will instantly panic and assume he is dead. I have NO IDEA why I do this, and it interferes with my life and ability to have fun when I'm not with my parents/boyfriend. This also happened with my ex. We lived in the same town, so any time I hear sirens, I would worry myself sick that something had happened to him until I heard from him. To make matters worse, my best friend's parents were killed in a car accident last month, so now my anxiety levels are through the roof. I am CONSTANTLY worrying that something will happen to my parents now, especially seeing as it happened to someone so close to me. If you can think of anything to help me, please tell me.

I want to buy a Nintendo DS, since my old one broke, but I want one with a Nintendo Game Boy slot. What was the last model that came with one?

If you go to a party, and you are under 21 and others at the party who are also under 21 are drinking and the party gets busted, can you get in trouble? In other words, is it legal to go to a party where drinking is involved as a minor and be around minors who are drinking as long as you don't drink yourself? Can you get arrested just for being there? Thanks!

I have a transfer pack for my Nintendo 64 and recently purchased a use copy of Pokemon Gold to play on it. I put the game into the transfer pack and went to the Main screen, but the game pack came up with a bunch of question marks on the screen and said "This Game pack Cannot Be Used." Why not? is there something I can do to make it work? Is this a problem with the game or my transfer pack? My transfer pack has worked for other games like Pokemon Yellow, Blue, and Red, so I don't know why it isn't working here. Thanks!

I have just beat Pokemon Red and am about to start Pokemon Blue. After this, I was hoping to buy Pokemon Green (the original) but it is only released in Japanese! That isn't a problem for me, I have most of the games memorized from playing yellow, red, and now blue, but I was wondering if that version would work on my gameboy since it was made in America? I know that there is a difference between DVD released in different regions, so I was wondering if it was the same for video games?

Thanks!

I know you have to use an HTML code, but I've never used one before. Can someone please help me? I need to know how to put the italics into my fanfic before I post it.

Okay, so I recently read online that the Japanese CD Drama "The Birth of Mewtwo" was released in English in a bundle pack with the CD drama about Jessie's mom (miyamoto). is this true? and if so, where can i buy it or listen to it legally?

Could someone please give me a list of every episode of Pokemon that Cassidy and Butch appear in? I am particularly looking for the episode where Cassidy tries to convince James to join her and Butch as a member of their team.

Hi,

I'm looking for the episode of Pokemon where flashbacks are shown of Jessie and James flunking out of Pokemon Tech and the one where it shoes them in the bicycle gang. Thanks!

I have heard that Warner Brothers Studio in London is doing a Tour of the Harry Potter Set. my question is, is this a one time or limited time event? will it only be open for a certain amount of time? or is this something new that will be in london for a long time? i really want to go but i will need to save up money first so i wanted to know if i have a year or so or if this is somethig that will only be available for awhile! thanks!

Hi. I am an eighteen year old female. I am about five feet tall and weigh about 130 pounds. Over about the past year or so, I have begun experiencing very odd symptoms.

-Frequent feelings of faintness, as though I am a feather

-Numbness in my hands and feet.

-Moments of extreme thirst, followed by frequent urination. (I'm talking there are times when i go 2-3 times per hour).

-Weight fluxuation (between 119-135 lbs.)

I saw on the internet that these are common symptoms of Diabetes, and I know that people who develop diabetes at my age usually develop type 1. My mother had gestational diabetes with me, and now both she and my father have type two diabetes as do/did 3 out of my 4 grandparents. I also have two cousins with type 1 diabetes, and many aunts, uncles, and relatives with type two diabetes.

My main question is, does my mother having gestational diabetes put me at increased risk for type 1 diabetes now? also, does the fact that my parents both have type 2 diabetes put me at increased risk for type 1 diabetes? And if not, what else could these symptoms be? I have had my sugar tested once a year ago and it was pretty normal, actually kind of on the low side, but i have been told that even diabtetics sometimes have normal blood sugar readings.
