I'm in a fairly new relationship, and we're in love and very committed, but I have now discovered that I have no skills when it comes to disagreements or problems. I need to figure this out because I want my relationship to be better for both of us, so, anyone know of any good books about this?

I've suddenly lost a bit of my singing voice, the chest voice is fine, but some of my mid-range notes sound like a harmonica. I was talking a fair bit the day my voice went, and my voice does feel tired and sore. I can sort of feel the spot that is making my voice squeak which worries me. Anyone out there have experience with nodes? Did your voice give out in one part of your range?

Is that weird? Has anyone else been in this situation? Did it end badly?

If you've been sexually abused, how do you learn to accept cuddling andd other forms of touch without associating it with sex?

So, I'm in a new relationship, and I'm pretty used to being single and having my own space, physically and emotionally. I'm feeling sort of smothered, every time I pick up my phone there's another text from him, and because he's temporarily unemployed, he wants to spend every free minute with me. He's also typically male and won't leave me any personal space when we're sitting watching TV or whatever, he's hanging onto me like a lap dog. What do I do, am I crazy for being bothered by this? Is this just what I have to expect to be in a relationship?

Is that weird?

Help, I get a weird error message and I can't get my email account to link to my phone! Technology gurus, your advice?

I can't find any actual research to back this up, but I swear I get 'head cold brain' when I'm sick, can't concentrate, can't think, my reaction time is soooo sloooow. Does anyone else get this?

I can get into character, and my co-star is really nice, and really I have no problem wanting to kiss him, but what if I'm bad at it?

I'm a rookie home decorator, and it's time to do my bedroom. I'm looking at new furniture, and it seems like all the 'adult' furniture is really dark wood, but some of the youth sets are cream or off white. I only need the dressers and such, so bed frame size isn't an issue. My question is, however- is cream-coloured furniture considered juvenile, and that's why I can't find it outside of the kid's section, or can I put it in my room and have it look age appropriate?

It's a two-deck solitaire game. There are sixteen cards placed face up, as well as (I think) four piles of three cards each. The rest of the cards are in a draw pile. The object of the game is to play all the cards to the foundations in suit, but the foundations are built by every other card (A,3,5,7,9,J,K,2,4,6,8,10,Q or 2,4,6,8,10,Q,A,3,5,7,9,J,K). You can play from any face-up card, and the gaps in the sixteen card grid are filled from the draw pile. Does this sound familiar to anyone, and bonus question, where can I find an online version to play?

Obviously, I'm not thinking of singing Old Man River, and I wouldn't sing a romantic ballad that was obviously targetted at a woman, but how about 'Puttin' on the Ritz'? That doesn't seem to be too gender specific. Thoughts?

I need a musical theatre song that fits the jazz/swing style, any brilliant ideas?

I'd like to go out for a show, but I'm only interested in one of the leads. I'm wondering if I put that on my audition form, will that just make me look like a diva and wreck my chances?

I overdid it and strained my voice, singing on Monday. How long will that take to recover? Anyone done this, and how long did it take you?

My friends has a no contact order on her husband. He's used a keylogger to steal her email password. Does this violate the no conctact order?

So, some of my keyboard keys have more than two characters on them. For example, my slash/question mark key also has an accented E on it in blue. Somehow, when working in Word, when I try to type a question mark, I get this accented E. I don't know what I pressed to make it start using the French characters, so I don't know how to make it go away. Any suggestions?

I'm trying to find the album cover for Al Jolson's 'Anniversary Song' to make a prop copy for a play. Is there a website for old record covers where I can find this image?

I go out for a run, but before very long, my throat is burning and I swear I can taste blood in the back of my throat. Does this happen to anyone else? Am I supposed to just push through this?

I want to get a new laptop, and of course there are hundreds of options, so I'm appealing to the computer whizzes out there. I want a computer with enough processor speed etc. to easily handle Frontierville on Facebook, or a game like Fate. I don't need much storage, though. Naturally, I'm trying not to go broke, either. Any thoughts?
