*have strong feelings for

*are not particularly close with, see them rarely

do you think all it boils down to is just a crush? (considering you dont have a strong relationship/ built trust ect or do you think your brain is trying to tell you something; that your in love?

Im 18 years old, i would like another shot at my A levels again as i dropped out the first time i tried them. I would like to do them part time as i am also working full time as a chef, i am prepared to reduce the hours i work so i have time to study. i have no idea where to begin! when i started them at 16, i stayed at the same school it was quite simiple, but i have moved to central london and i assume i cant do part time courses at a school do you know anywhere i can do A levels in central London?

im thinking of doing it this saturday theres this die antwoord show at the hmv forum in london. i missed out on the tickets. have you ever done it before? is there any way of telling the fakes from the real ones? should i go there early to ensure i get a ticket of one of them because this concert is going to be really popular .

i missed out on getting tickets for the die antwoord concert at the london hmv forum on 5th july, im so desperate to see them that me and my friends are thinking of just going and seeing if there will be people outside selling tickets yknow how they do it sometimes just a bit more expensive. what do you reckon are the chances that there will be any? do you go early to make sure that you get them before anyone else?

if someone is removed from family, friends or a partner and is effected by it, do you think that person can overcome it in time and become like self sufficient, even if they dont get it back. so they dont need anyone anymore they can survive by themselves or do you think they will always crave that attention until they get it back.

i heard about this research they did on baby monkeys that were removed from their mothers, they were provided with the food and water they needed to survive but they died of loneliness so to speak, but do you think a human can overcome this need if they get used to being on their own?

im a chef writing a menu, its just a little thing im doing for fun but i wana make it properly like how i would do it if i was actually opening a restraunt. i want to do it in the future but just putting some ideas together.

My dream restraunt is a fairly small place, maybe 30-40 seater breakfast restraunt in the city, with a british menu my questions are;

1: how do you calculate how many dishes to put on the menu? (i understand that if there is too many and too much prep its not possible, i got a bit carried away with my menu and ended up designing 24 recipes and i think i need to reduce this)

2: How do you cost a menu? specifically how do you know when to limit expensive ingredients, for example using smoked salmon and avocado is going to put my costs up loads, every dish has its pricey ingredient, do you take this off the menu altogether or replace it or what.

any advise whatsoever would be really nice, thanks.

approaching the year mark at the restaurant i am working at, handed in my notice and am looking for the next step in my career as a chef, i am very ambitious and i want my next job to give me something different, i wana learn new things. the place i am currently working at is very high end, it would definitley be a step down but would working in a butchers for a while help me with a career in cheffing or would it be a waste of time, should i just find the next job in a restaurant? it would really interest me, i think id really like it and it would be good for me to have a change of pace for a little while and have a little break from the kitchen BUT i wouldnt want to do it if it wont help my career as much as working in the kitchen. what do you think?

on a friday night, dressed in fancy dress military style like camo clothes and paint and hats etc do you think we will have any problems getting into places because of dress code, will be going to bars, clubs, gay bars etc.

a while ago it was like bad moods would come and go and id feel fine a few days later, i would see my friends, go out, and generally forget the feelings i had before.

i moved out on my own to London september last year for this job as a chef in a fancy restraunt,i had been workng there since june but needed to live closer. i work long hours so i dont sleep as much, never exercise anymore, have a terrible diet, things were manageable up until recently.

now this feeling it is constant and has been for the past three months, i wake up in the morning, feel fine for 5 minutes then remember how **** everything is and spend every waking minute of that day thinking about it or trying not to think about it.

im drinking a lot on my own aswell when im not working because i get bored.

i rarely see my friends anymore and i think could be part responsible because i get very lonely.

i went to a doctor last year about how i would get these feelings but then they would go, but said i was fine.

i know i shouldnt feel like this, there must be something i can do about it. does anyone know if this is depression or stress? have you ever felt like this and what did you do?

i want to get rid of everything on my computer except i dont want to lose my music and movies i paid for on itunes. is your stuff on itunes saved online or does it get deleted along with everything else?

i am 17 and i am supposed to be moving out of my place tomorow and collecting my deposit but my 45 year old landlord will not return my deposit. i paid him in cash each time and he is now trying to claim that i did not pay rent to him that i was living with him for free and he will not return my deposit, what can i do, i still have the key to the house, my things are still there but i am not there right now. Can i report him to the police?

17 year old female struggling to find somewhere to live in london due to my age and price range, currently renting in north london but handed in my notice and leaving on the 20th and its looking unlikely im going to find somewhere i can afford, staying there is not an option. i work in soho, i went to the westminster council for help but i need to have lived there for 4 years and have only moved here recently, cant go to my home borough to far from work and leaving isnt an option , is there help i can get from somewhere because i have no idea how to go about doing this.

im not looking to spend loads just need a reasonably priced laptop just for browsing internet, watching movies, chatting etc. But if theres a really good one that costs a bit more then please tell me about it. im useless with technolgy and know nothing about buying computers, dont know whats a good price and which ones are better so would be very grateful if you could help. thanks.

shes fairly well known you would recognize her if you saw her shes blonde, British maybe 30something. i cannot think where ive seen her, its gona bug me forever if i dont find out who she is, i know its a long shot but can you think of any like this???

i have been searching for flat/house shares for over two months now, i have been at the computer everyday, sending out messages to landlords advertising their rooms and have received barely any replies aside from fakes trying to scam me, or ones from which are unsuitable. i have tried to contact somewhere around 40 different landlords and no replies.

and although i am well aware it is notoriously difficult to find properties in central london, it cant be this hard????

My budget is very reasonable; £500 pcm, which is considerably more than what most 17 year olds or students can afford, my profiles are well informed and say lots about me; where im from what i do, what one can expect living with me, i have a respectable job as a chef in oxford circus, im independent and im not even the tiniest bit fussy about my requirements im that desperate to find somewhere.

have a look at one of my profiles and see for yourself http://www.spareroom.co.uk/flatshare/flatmate_deta...

(you might not be able to access the page if you dot have an account im not sure)

what is going on??? do you think its my age that puts them off? How long did it take you to find a house share? What could i do to improve my chances of finding a place?

i will be coming out in the near future when ive left my bf (to save him embarrassment) i am looking for a house share and on the form it asks my sexual orientation, it wont let me leave it blank, i want to answer truthfully however i really feel its not a good idea to have my potential housemates and landlord know first and when i havent even considered how im going to tell collegues and friends. BUT if i answer straight then when i do come out they will ask why i didnt say in the first place because they may not have wanted to let to me yknow

My boyfriend mentioned it the other day, apparently there is a special sim card you can ask for when starting a new phone contract that allows you to cancel it early if you want, without the cancelation fee but you have to pay a bit extra each month for the privilage. I wanted to check if you can actually get this and what its called before i start a contract because that would be useful.

hi, over the past year i have had a great interest in learning Afrikaans, simply because its my favorite foreign language, i am interested in their culture and i think i can do it. I have tried learning French and German, but i simply did not have a passion for it, possibly because of the school environment i was in or i just didn't like it. In a way this puts me off a little and makes me consider will i end up feeling the same about this language and give up?

Over the next few months i will have a lot of time on my hands because i pulled out of A levels to do a catering course at college in september, and i don't have a really demanding and time consuming job, this feels like a constructive and rewarding way of making use of that time.

My question is will it be worth making the effort? How did you personally find learning the language? In comparison to learning other languages, like French, was it easier or funner etc? Is it regarded as 'useful' language to have, like will it have much use for me aside from when i visit South Africa? Will this open up new opportunities for me in life? Should i just do it because i feel like it?

live with my boyfriends family, out of the 6 of us (me, mum, dad, keiran (15), daryl (21), david (18)) only me, mum and dad work, i am the only one that pays for my own cigarettes, the dad buys tobacco for the boys, i buy straights.

A few weeks ago daryl jokingly said when he was drunk that sometimes he would nick a *** out my purse when i wasnt looking, i thought he was joking, the other night he suggested to a friend that if he wanted a cigarette he should look in my bag. At this point i decided to keep count of how many i had, before i went to bed i counted them twice, the next morning one is missing. For the past 5 or so months i have been getting through a lot more cigarettes than usual, i thought nothing of it just thought i was smoking more but now i know he has been stealing form me, the cost to me has been imense and i thought it was my fault until this morning, i told my boyfriend and his mum,

- their solution, buy him another packet of tobacco, so he wont feel the need to steal mine, they suggested i hide my cigarettes under my pillow so they are safe.

Does this seem reasonable to you?

why should i have to hide my things from family so they don't get stolen? Isnt it wrong that he is being rewarded for what he has done? and at his age for gods sake !

Should i just leave it and take better care of where i leave my cigarettes? or speak up? ive wanted to move out for a while because of their familys ways, mum has borrowed money and not payed me back, keiran will take food that he knows does not belong to him,etc and this just gives me better reason to want to leave, what would you do?

(before you answer this, if you are going to break the news to me that smoking is very bad for you, i have already been told, yes i was so surprised, i only heard the other day, why didn't someone tell me before? they really need to let more people know about this)

you are probably not going to believe me but i just want to say i'm not looking for attention, i would just like to hear if anyone has a logical explanation to this, scientific or spiritual.

the night before the earthquake in japan, i had a horrible dream that i was in the middle of city while there was an earthquake and buildings where crashing down around me and trains and cars seemed to be rolling over, sliding about and crashing, it felt so real like i was actually there and could feel the ground shaking, i was terrified. At another point in my dream (although it may not seem as significant) i was pulled by this strong force into a dark muddy river and all my belongings where scattered everywhere and i had to gather them.

I have been known to have very vivid dreams about really random stuff very frequently, but this one felt really strange and rather upset me after i woke up. At the time i was also suffering from a bad cold, so you could say that could have effected my hormones and mixed emotions.

i'm kind of freaked out about this because i'm an atheist, and am tempted to just believe this is a coincidence but it feels like too much of a coincidence. My theory is; you know birds and animals freak out when something bad is going to happen like how cows went to higher ground just before the tsunami happened a few years ago. well maybe humans have a very mild form of this.

can anyone share an insight into what this may have been?
