What's your opinion. I know they say that men think about sex every few seconds, but I know many women who are the exact same way. I think women may be worse however they are more discreet. What's your opinion?

It will be one year since my Mother passed on Sept. 11th. My sister, Father and I are trying to come up with ideas as to what to do. We spread her ashes on a small island here in the Florida Keys and on Mother's Day hung a memorial in her favorite tree on the island. Do you have any input?

Why do you take a girl out have a great time with her, make your move and when she doesn't allow you to go any further than a kiss put her in the friend zone via text message? I've been on three dates in the past month, all of which ended this same way.

The guys I've been going on dates with have been unoriginal and uninspired... But I have a date set up with a guy who is taking me offroading. I'm very excited to have some fun rather than a stiff dinner and drinks same old same old routine.

I'm interested what is your idea of the perfect first date?

Maybe it's just because my town is a party town, but none of the men down here seem to want anything more than a one night stand with the bartender (which I am not willing to give). I've been on a few dates lately all of which ended exactly the same, date goes great and at the end of the night he tries to go further than just a kiss and I deny.. To which I get a TEXT MESSAGE the following day saying that we should just be friends. Why kiss me and try to "hook up" when you just want to be friends? I asked one of these "dates" that question to which he responded that he was sorry and just thought I was hot and wanted to try to get with me. Do any other women have this problem because I am getting very sick of it?

I'm not pregnant, but I plan on having children in the next few years with my soon to be husband; however I just cannot get over my fear of having them. I had a spinal fusion when I was 12 (11 years ago) for my S-curve scoliosis.

What are some concerns I should have? Does it normally go okay, or does the surgery affect having children much? Should I be as worried as I am?

His mother passed away when he was young... Should he dance with his step mother who he is just starting to get close to, a grandmother or should we nix the dance altogether? I will be dancing with my father.. Just unsure of what to do here.

Please no rude answers.

I watched that "Real Wedding Crashers" show and I just can't believe that someone would want to turn their wedding into a disaster like that..

What do you think?

They don't want anything religious.. She asked me to do it because I'm a published poet, but I have no idea what to read... Or try to write about for her ceremony. Can you guys give me some suggestions?

My fiance and I thought it would be cute for our fall wedding to have a caramel/ candy apple station where our guests could choose toppings to have put on their "gourmet" apples. We would have an "Apple-tender" to make the apples for our guests. We were thinking of toppings like different kinds of chocolates and nuts, etc. What do you think? I've asked a few of my bridesmaids and they loved the idea. At the end of the night the guests would pick up their apples, which would be wrapped in a colorful celophane bag with a ribbon..

Please no rude answers.. But does this sound like a fun idea?

I was thinking about doing it in Mojo and Orange Juice but I'm not sure...

My favorites are Grouper, and Mahi Mahi. Both ocean. Live on an island so we get a fresh batch daily.

The only lake fish I like is Walleye...

I do mine in the slow cooker all day and I stuff the roast with garlic...

How do you make your's?

Mine: Coach, plum, soft pebble leather with chocolate brown leather straps.. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!

I usually go with a simple Stoli Vanilla and Coke or a Cosmo but lately I am loving myself a Dark and Stormy.... Which is a mix of ginger beer and rum best with a cherry to garnish..

I wanted the handkercheif to be seen but the colors are very bold, I thought it would look very beautiful wrapped around the stems of my flowers. Is there a way to do this and protect the handkercheif from being ruined?

Thanks all...

If so what is your favorite book so far and are you anxious for the new book coming out next week?

I just have a few questions as to what we are responsible for paying for with a destination wedding. Our wedding is going to be in Mobile, AL. which is a central point for our two families who are split up all around the country. Are we responsible for hotel costs? Travel costs? If anyone can give some advice on this I'd much appreciate it. Please no rude answers, I just would like to know the proper etiquette on the subject... We are fully ready to pay for hotel costs, etc.. Thanks...

A friend who got engaged recently decided that she wanted to use 80% of the ideas that I had for my own wedding (I'm getting married Sept. of next year), in her's. This includes colors, venue, time of day (we were planning a night time candlelit ceremony), amongst several other things. She also scheduled her day about a month before mine...

I'm very hurt and upset that she's taking ideas that I have worked so hard on. How do I tell her this politely? I got off the phone with her last night and just cried when she told me all of her "plans"? My fiance said to just not tell her anything else....

Besides that, what should I do? She also informed me that she wants me to be in charge of planning the whole thing and basically told me to put my wedding planning on hold to plan her's.
