I have been texting a girl of 17, I'm a young adult (think 18-21 age range) from IL, she is from WA, so she meets AoC in both states. I haven't been sending her anything explicit, mainly just "hey, how are you?" kind of stuff. She, however, has grown interested in me; and has been trying to get me to exchange sexual texts with her.

I would be lying if I said I wasn't tempted, as she is very attractive, and we get along very well, but I've been able to keep her at bay thus far.

My question is: If I were to exchange explicit messages (absolutely no pictures, and we both feel the same about this) with her (remember, she is over the AoC in both states); what legal issues, if any, could I (or she) face?

tl;dr: young adult and 17 year old exchange explicit text-only messages from states whose aggregate AoC is 17. Would either party be breaking the law, provided no pictures are exchanged?

I recently dug up my old copy of Battle Realms and remembered instantly why I always loved it. I'm usually not a fan of RTS games, but I decided I owe them another chance. However, I would rather not invest any money if I can help it. Does anyone out there know any good FREE RTS games I could try, see if my tastes have changed with age?

I'm house-sitting for my cousin and his new wife while they're on their honeymoon, and they said I could use their wifi while they were away, but forgot to tell me the password and didn't take their phones with them for me to ask. Is there any way I could find out the password for their modem?

I had a dream last night that was heavy on the theme of employment. I worked a lot throughout the dream, and no matter what I did, I kept seeing my ex. We broke up almost 5 years ago, and this is the first dream I've had about her since. We never spoke, but she kept walking by, or I would catch her looking at me. And before you just say "you want her back", realize that I know this but still, this is the only time I've dreamt about her since the breakup. Also, I'm not getting into a new relationship, and I'm not just getting out of one either.

Not sexual escorts, mind you, but legitimate. For example, if I was to charge an hourly fee to say, go out with a lonely, single woman who just wants a man to treat her like a good friend/companion. No sex-for-money exchanges would be happening with these women. I would just like to know if there are any legal hiccups I need to be aware of before offering my services. Freelance, of course.

I rent a house together with my friend and his wife. Everything was fine until my roommate let his brother "crash for a little while." That "little while" has turned into over 8 months now. I had no problem with his brother at first, but over time he's shown himself to be overly self-centered and constantly breaking house rules, except every time I try to confront him about it, my roommate just shrugs it off like it doesn't matter. Well now the brother has taken to using my **** ALL THE TIME. So much that I barely get to use it anymore. It may sound childish, but playing. Video games is the one thing that keeps me sane when I come home from 3 stressful jobs, and what do I find? He's already playing the only system I can afford and refuses to let me use MY own property. However, I can't just kick him off it, because then my roommate would get pissed and it would start way too much drama (tried that once before). No, I need a non-confrontational way to get him to stop shutting me out of my own property. For instance, as I write this, he is playing need for speed: most wanted, and apparently plans to be for the rest of the night.

TL;DR: roommate's brother treats my property like it's his own, but I can't confront him because my roommate acts like his brother is king of the house, and confrontation will cause too much drama.

Not for any nefarious purposes, just because I don't like the thought of a random gas station employee (no offense to has station employees, I just don't know or trust most of you) or liquor store clerk knowing my name/address just because I go in to buy beer.

I've been having a series of dreams over the past few months. Not that I'm complaining, but before this, I had only ever had 1 sex dream when I began puberty. These dreams have been about 2 young women I know (in the dream, not real life). They are sisters, in fact. I can never remember their names, but each dream details a risque encounter with one of them. Only ever with one, and whichever one the encounter is with, the other never appears in the dream, and is only mentioned. The latest dream was actually a semi-lucid one (I could recognize that I was in a dream, but could not control my actions) in which i discovered one of the sisters pleasing herself on her bed in a house I do not find familiar. I entered the room and proceeded to talk her into sex, and the dream just ends. Nothing external woke me, I just woke up on my own.

Now, as I said before, I'm not complaining. These dreams don't adversely affect me, they don't embarrass me, they don't make me feel any negative emotions in my waking life. However, I am aware that serial dreams tend to arise when there is a deep-seated issue in one's waking life that the subconscious feels the need to keep bringing up in dreams, so I would like to know what any psychologists, or even psych students here might think may be the reason behind these dreams.

I work in a hospital and there is this INSANELY hot nurse. The problem is this hospital has one of those really strict sexual harassment policies, so i doubt i could even tell her "you're really pretty" without getting fired. Here's the rub (or, the lack of), i really would like to get her number, so i could flirt with her on our own time. But she's also really busy, so catching her alone is rare, and doesn't last long. How could i go about asking her for her number in a quick, concise, playful way that doesn't constitute sexual harassment under the retardedly-strict policy?

So, i work with this woman (MILF really), and she's married, but splitting up with her husband, who is a real douche canoe. She's already moved out, so I had an idea. She is insanely hot, and the fact she has several kids doesn't bother me (think over 5 but less than 10). We flirt all the time at work, and we've even joked around about getting on. But I can't help but wonder: is it wrong to go after her? She is literally twice my age (i'm 21, she's 42), she has several kids, some of whom are older than me, and she's still legally married. What does the Y!A community think?

so I've been trying to get with this friend of mine for months now, and i finally got up the courage to ask her, and she said yes. but now that I got the date, i'm at a loss for what to do once we're on said date. i risked our friendship for a chance at a relationship with her, so i need this date to go well. I'm 20 years old and this will be my first date where curfews and parents aren't involved, so i'm really confused on what we could possibly do. i have a feeling that at our age a movie isn't going to cut it. help?

I love this song, but a couple friends have said it sucks. I won't put the artist or song name yet because I've had people say they hate the song just because they haven't heard of the artist before and people can be stupid like that, but here are the lyrics, please tell me what you think of the song, honestly:

[Verse 1]

She grabbed me by the hand and she started to dance, man

I said, "Oh this is great, now I look like a transplant."

She put my hands on her hips and started to squish me

I felt her ***, it was exactly where it should be (Yeahhh)

My drink was in the air, I'm not really sure what it was

Or why it was in the air, I guess it was because

I was with you, I'm just so depressed, forget it

Alright already, I got it, you wanna dance, I get it

[Chorus x 2]

I dance with you

just because you dance with me

I just want you to see

that there's more to

Being in a club and getting drunk with one of throwing up, waking up like we're in love

[Verse 2]

I'm such a misfit in social situations, I hate it

Depression medicated yet you're insecure and naked

I'm trying to loosen up, you're dying to read my sullen eyes

This intellectual black hole reeks of cologne and lies

This song is making me sick, I tell myself it's fine

But the DJ replayed the beginning for the sixth time

I hope somebody pulls a gun out and sucks all the fun out

And levels the playing field for Captain Bum-out, bum-out

[Chorus x 2]

The other day, I was talking to a friend of mine about how the girl at the drive-through at our closest gas station was always giving me free sodas and such, and how every time i get held up in a line at a restaurant or something, any females that work there rush to give me free things "for my trouble." Also, people always tend to root for me in any altercations i may have. I've got no enemies really, and everyone (for some reason) always wants to be on my good side. I'm not that good-looking so it couldn't really be attraction, not from all these people. what would cause my friend to say this? and if i'm not a con-man, why do people do this?

I have been into this girl for over a month now, and she says she doesn't feel the same, and says she wants me to quit flirting with her, but she never actually says no. I told her in the beginning that a no would shut down any flirting, any passes made, all of it, but she refuses to just say yes or no. it's always "not right now" or "maybe someday, but not now" or "I don't like anyone like that right now". wtf is up with her? why won't she just give me a no and let me be on my way?

Last night, me and a few friends (my roommate, my other friend, and this 24 yr old i have a thing for and who the question is about) were playing a card game. Whenever my roommate and our friend went off to strategize, this woman looks me directly in the eye and asks why i am so into her. I was trying to be funny, so i said "want me to make a list?" And she did want me to make a list. I'm wondering why she would want to know? I mean she already told me she doesn't like me in that way, so why woild.she care why i am onto her?

This girl i like is acting so frickin hot and cold now it's ridiculous. one minute she's flirting with me, and the next she's laughing in my face and making fun of me with no provocation. Like the other night, she seriously made a pass at me, then immediately followed it up with (in the same breath almost) started mocking me saying **** like i have a little penis and stuff like that (she wouldn't know, but still....hurtful).I'm just wondering what's going on here. I'm usually extremely good with women, and i can't read this chick to save my life. not to mention she used to text me all the time, and hasn't even replied to my texting attempts today, let alone start a convo like she usually does. and before you say she was busy, she usually even texts me from work or has stayed up until 7 am texting me before. not to mention she was at my house on/off today, and didn't even talk to me when she was there, just chatted with my roommates (her friends that introduced us). i told her i was into her a couple weeks ago, and she said she wasn't looking yet because she just got out of a bad relationship, and that she thought i was charming, charismatic, and funny and implied heavily that she could see us getting together possibly in the future. anyone have any idea what could be going on with this girl? she's unlike any girl i've ever known, and we got along so well until the last couple days. btw i'm almost 21 and she's 24, if it makes a difference.

I have these friends. My friend is getting mareied next month to his gf (another in the group), a girl i have a thing for, but who isn't dating yet because she just got of a bad relationship, and another friend who is just there. Well whenever the first two go somewhere, they always invite the girl and the other friend, but never me. Whenever we are all hanging out, noone really talks to me, they just sort of respond to things i say then go back to the four of them, i could die tomorrow and the biggest worry would be they now would have a funeral to attend. The worst part is, it hasn't always been this way, the first two used to go off on their own, but they're engaged, they're allowed to have alone time, but ever since these other two came in, i'm the odd man out for no reason. Any ideas what might really be going on behind the scenes, or advice on how to deal with the situation?

I am almost 21 and i really like this girl. She's about 3 years older than me, super hot, tall, brunette, the works. She acts like she likes me romantically, but denies it, and pretty much ignores me if my roomate is around. She's contantly going off alone with him, just because he leaves the room, she'll follow so they can talk alone. Now before you start in with "she's interested in your roommate" and all that, my roomate is getting married in a couple (3) months to this woman's best friend. I just wonder, does anyone know wtf is going on here?

I am 20 years old but will be turning 21 in late spring, and i was planning to buy a motorcycle with my tax return coming up (down payment and first/few insurance payments depending on whether i go monthly or biyearly). I was wondering what the Y!A community thought would be the cheapest on me when it comes to balancing initial price, fuel economy, and insurance prices for someone my age. I was thinking a moderately powered large roadster-style bike (i'm reluctant to say chopper...i hate that word) that doesn't go too much above freeway speeds, but i'm open to hearing other people's suggestions. I'm from southern illinois, and am a large guy, but not giant. No crotch-rockets please.
