i'm gonna try to make this short. so basically me and my boyfriend just broke up... kind of. we've been together for 10 months. we had a good relationship for the most part and really loved and cared about each other. he broke up with me the other night when i was drunk because i say stupid shit when i'm drunk like how i wanna be single or wanna hook up with other guys. obviously i don't mean any of it i just was dumb and said it to make him jealous. i know that sounds horrible but i guess i've just been a little insecure in our relationship lately and it was nice to see that he cared. apparently this pushed him too far because he broke up with me. we got back together the next night but a few days later he said things were still weird and he broke up with me again. i wrote him a really long letter apologizing and telling him how much i care about him. he told me he's really confused and needs space. it's been almost a week. the last time he broke up with me he took 2 weeks to talk to me but he texted me when he was drunk and only because i ignored him when i walked past him. (the last time we broke up it was because he was mad because he broke up with me when he was blacked out and i hooked up with another guy because i was upset). clearly the things i've been saying only hurt that wound more because he still is worried that i'm gonna cheat on him (even though i would NEVER) and he's just really self conscious and vulnerable right now. when he broke up with me he named all of his flaws and then told me all the guys he thinks im gonna move on with. so basically we haven't talked in almost a week. i don't know if i should keep waiting for him or move on because i'm really upset. i really miss him and wanna be with him. he's the only guy i've been this comfortable with and wanted to spend every moment with. i've been with lots of guys (not talking about sex just making out or having a 'thing') and i know what i want by now. and it's him. i think he's having trouble trusting me and i don't know what to do to fix things because i literally said all i could say. it's up to him now. i don't know if i should play games and make him chase me because that's what he's attracted to or if i should just be honest. should i wait for him to talk to me even though it's killing me? what if he never does? or should i wait a week and then talk to him and see what's up? he kinda left me in a really shitty position just wondering if things are gonna work or not
he left you in a shitty postion? are you serious? Women Like You are the reason that weakling guys cut themselves. Why? For starters, You play silly childish games with him. That's not kosher once you graduate high school. well, its not even kosher in high school, thats just the point where reasonable self-respecting men stop putting up with it and throw your childish ass to the curb. I can list with one hand how many functioning successful adults do things like that and still wind up with a closed fist upon which to count the number of dumbass ex-girlfriends of mine who used to play the same bullshit-ass tricks and are now lonely friendless drama queens who in at least one case have a kid whose paternity test would require a whole waiting room of test subjects. Bringing up another valid point! getting fucked up at a party is still no excuse for your behavior, and his isn't too far behind. Alcohol is no excuse for either of you. and from your description of these drunken escapades, I can say with confidence that the both of you had better lay off the sauce before something really catastrophic happens to you.
Now that all of that anger is out of the way, I'd suggest you heed the following-
first off, leave this poor dude alone. you've already taken a chainsaw to his bloodpump enough times. second, learn to respect other human beings. people who play tricks and games have no compassion for people, and revel in their pain. knock that sadistic shit off.
Last, but not least- learn to respect yourself. Fucking random dudes may be cool with you at the moment, but remember that random dudes are loudmouth assholes, and loudmouth assholes tend to ruin the reputations of girls. and trust me on this, random one-night stands and hookups are okay for a while, but at the end of the night, you're still alone and showering some stranger's sweat off of you in a random shower using the shampoo as bodywash because the bar of soap looks like grizzly adams.
not a pleasant way to live your life.
So straighten the fuck out, and good luck

What's a liberal and a comunist? And what's the diff between a democrat and republican? And is Prez. Obama a republican or a democrat. I'm 13 so can you explain it without all the confusing politics words? I skipped a few grades and I'll be taking a placement test in august that'll have some social studies and American history sections so I think it'll be good to know a little more about some if this stuff. Thanks a ton guys. :)
the best way to sum up a liberal would be to paraphrase "theories of international politics and Zombies" by Daniel w drezner.
a classical liberal believes that cooperation is still possible in a world of complete anarchy. they believe that through compromise and diplomacy, you can cooperate with others to produce a greater good for all parties ie: nuclear weapons treaties. A Liberal, as the word is commonly used today, is somebody who is left-wing, meaning that their policies tend to be things like the failed equal rights ammendment, legal abortions, gender and racial equality.
A Democrat is a form of liberal in the classical sense of the word. they believe in a strong federal government(ie: they don't like the 9th and 10th ammendments very much), that supplies numerous goods and services for its people examples of those services being social security, medicaid, medicare, welfare, and low-income housing(helping poor people pay their rent).
Democrats can range from the centrist Senator Joe leiberman(change things slowly over time) to the more radical Representative Nancy Pelosi(Change things NOW!).
President Obama is a democrat. according to some, he is a centrist, while others claim he is a radical. truth be told, he's probably somewhere in between.
Republicans are a type of liberal(again in the classical sense of the word) that believe in a small Federal government that does not interfere with it's citizens and their daily lives(they don't like welfare very much). economically, they usually prefer to keep taxes low, and allow businesses in the American market to conduct themselves freely. The military is a big deal to them, as they believe that the best defense is a strong offense. They are Pro-life(against legal abortions). Just like the Democrats, there are two sides of the republican party. the centrists, like Senator John McCain, are very similar to their democrat counterparts. While the more extreme right-wing conservatives are set upon returning The United States to a "more happy time" in which evolution was not taught in schools, and religion was once again a daily presence in the American way of life. to give you a better picture of their ideal society, I suggest watching "leave it to beaver" on TV Land.
Before 2001, the usual military pattern of both parties was that the Republicans would build up military power, but hardly ever use it. then the democrats would take power, cut defense spending, and deploy the military all over the world. For example- Clinton cut the military literally in half, reducing the army from 900,000 to 400,000 and the navy from 500 ships to 350. he then deployed them to 87 different countries over the course of his eight year term.
over the past 11 years, the trend has gone a little haywire. President Bush did a global death blossom, while increasing defense and war spending to ridiculous levels, then President Obama followed through with a surge of his own. this last paragraph wasn't really relevant, but I find it fascinating.
now, for the last group- Communists.
Karl Marx wrote "the Communist Manifesto" during the nineteenth century. this is extremely important, because without the industrial revolution, communism would never exist. during that time period, factory owners were getting rich by turning the regular joes into what amounts to slaves. the workers(marx calls them "the Proletariat") were being paid pennies a day to do 12-16 hours of dangerous backbreaking labor while the owners ( termed "the Bourgeoise") lived in massive summer homes in the Hamptons and Newport living high on the horse. how high, you ask? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Breakers
that high.
so Karl came up with an interesting idea- The workers have the power. without them, the factory owners and industrialists would not make any money.
in theory, the workers overthrow their masters, and take the factories for themselves. nobody owns the factory, because everybody owns the factory. in pure communism, there is no such thing as owning something. everything belongs to the people. everyone is equal, and nobody gets left behind.
in theory, its all fine and dandy. in practice, its totally insane. I suggest you read "animal Farm" by Orwell. that book can explain better than I ever could why communism doesn't work. But, if I may sum it up, Communism does not take into account that people, while generally good, are all greedy, posessive, and jealous people.
hope that helped.

Why does my minture pinture eat everything and anything
your miniature pinscer is a dog. dogs are not like cats. dogs, when given the opportunity, will gorge themselves on any available food because they do not have foresight(they do not know the food will still be there for consumption later). try this experiment some time- take a dog and a cat, give them three days supply of food and water, then leave them alone for the weekend. a cat will eat until it is full, then leave the rest for a later time. the dog will eat until all of the food is gone and starve the rest of the weekend. this does not mean that a dog is stupid, its just geared differently.

I am looking for either REALLY good art and/or historical museums in or around the palm beach, florida area. By 'good', i mean like the huge museums in chicago and atlanta, with mummies or about a war, or with great and very famous artists' pieces. THANK YOU :)
Let Serge be your guide to Florida, lost sheep. Florida is one GIANT museum. under every rock, behind every tree, in every multimillionaire's pool, there is a great story waiting for you to discover and cherish...
back to the point at hand-
http://www.palmbeachfl.com/vacations/culture-heritage/museums
this wasn't hard to find.
There are few states that can claim as much history as florida has(who gives a damn about nebraska?!). in addition, I suggest the following:
1- if you go to saint petersburg, visit the salvadore dali museum. its right by the historical district, and is really kickass.
2- read the novels of Tim Dorsey. his Serge A. Storms series is basically a guided historical tour of florida. lots of comedy, and the tour guide is a complete psychopath
good luck on your adventures in the sunshine state!

What could be the annual expense for living in USA.
Especially in places like (San Francisco)
cost of living varies greatly across the united states. san fransisco is one of the most expensive places to live in the U.S.
you're looking at around 2430 dollars a month($29,160/yr) in expenses on average to maintain what americans have come to call "comfortable". I could cut that down and still live pretty damn well.
good luck, friend. we could always use another good American citizen(hopefully you'll want to stay and become one).

im 17 years old and a guy. I realy want to have sex. I know this might seem like a really stupid question, but how do i get sex? Can you get a hooker if you are under 18?
hahahahahahahahaha!!!! Holy shit! My drug dealer never asked my age, and neither do hookers. Jesus christ, they're already fuckin Illegal in 49 states and barely tolerated in the one where they are legal, checking your age is the last worry on their mind. their primary concerns are: 1- is he a cop? and 2- does he have some kind of STD?
Find a nice girl and have a real emotional relationship before you go for broke. skipping step one and going straight for the goods is bullshit, trust me. when you're with a chick you actually care about, its fucking awesome. when its some random skirt, its fucking wierd.

I'm asking this question for my friend. He is 20 years old.
His roommate (also 20) and him are re-locating to a new apartment and can't decide who gets which bedroom. Each bedroom is the same size. The only difference is that one has an attached bathroom. The room without the attached bathroom has one literally five feet away, outside of the room.
Of course, they both want the room with the attached bathroom.
My friend actively went apartment searching and found the place while the other casually looked for places online. Do you think my friend deserves to get the room of his choice since he found the place? Should he pay more money for this room? Any other suggestions? Thanks!
here is how real men decide who gets what room:

I have mistaken religion and spirituality as the same thing for years. I am not a religious person (nor do I wish to be) and have been fighting both of this for years. I know understand that they are two different things entirely and would love to learn about spirituality and how to live my life with it, but I am struggling with it. can anyone who is spiritual give me some suggestion on how I might go about this?
yeah, its pretty easy. live a good life, do good things for good people, and have faith that everything will turn out okay in the end.
its like pancakes, once you know what goes in, its easy as hell.

It all started on facebook, about a month ago, I recognised a name that had popped up as "suggested friends." We had graduated High School together, of course I added him. So, he accepted and started talking to me on there and then we started texting. We were flirting back and forth. He told me that I'm beautiful, that he liked me a lot and why he likes me. Then, we accidently ran into each other at a town event. It was random but nice, unexpecting too. Well, the event was Saturday and he usually texts me first but Sunday and Monday I texted him. I know it's just a text in all but today's Tuesday and he hasn't texted me. I know it could be a possibility that he's just busy and wasn't thinking or something. But do you think he no longer likes me? I need advice! Like, should I talk to him? What should I say? Should I just ignore it and move on? Just talk to him like friends?
All appreciated! Oh btw, I'm 19/f and he's 20/m.
reality's a helluva lot different place than cyberspace. ever see season 12 of south park? theres an episode in which stan's sister has an internet boyfriend, whom she finally meets in person... its pretty damn funny, and applicable in your case. talking with somebody online is really easy. doing it in real life is a different story, because now you don't have a whole bunch of "1"s and "0"s behind which to hide. Stop using robots to communicate, and start hanging out with him.

41/47yrs
I feel like my husband of 5 yrs still loves his ex wife..with whom he has grown childred. when ever there is a family activity that involves their kids. She is overly friendly (she has boyfriend)and acts like she belongs in the family. btw he owns a buisness and hired her to help him run it. He gets mad at me if I ask him if he has feelings for her. they divorces becuase she cheated. I now will not go to family functions theres no room for two wives. I feel threatened by the way he allows her to interact with his family and he says nothing. yet gets upset with me if Im uncomfortable. am i wrong ? she also stole money from his buisness yet he does nothing, he must still love her
thats fucked up. sit him down and have a talk about this. you are his wife, not her. she lost that job for a reason, and you need to remind him of this.

I Need Help. My boyfriend calls me all these cute names, and I only call him "Babe" I want to call him more. Any suggestions?
( We're a young couple, like teens, and, I don't want to call him 'Hun' because that just sounds like what an older couple would call each other..)
well.. my girlfriends have called me everything from "teddy bear" to "wingnut"(I think that was derogatory, but it was said with affection).. my favorites so far have been:
shatze(german word for 'my treasure', pronounced "shots" or "shot-zee")
or schnuckles(german word for "cupcake", pronounced like "knuckles" with an "sh" sound in front of it)
german girlfriends are very amusing with their pet names.

we had a saying in the army- no matter how much you spit polish it, a turd is still a turd. this guy is just going to play you like a sock puppet if you take him back. so I suggest you go with the new guy.

Whenever I come on here to give out advice, I see questions that are so ridiculous..
- where can i get a dress?... ummm the mall??????
- am i pregnant?.... get a pregnancy test and find out yourself???
- how do i tell him i love him?- ........ just say you love him????
- do i have a yeast infection??..... how should we know? google it.
honestly. Is it just me, or is anyone else kinda frustrated that people are posting the most obvious and ridiculous questions ever???
because unlike normal family units, these kids don't get parental advice.
somebody needs to answer them, or they'll continue to skitter through their lives without a clue because common sense has become so rare it might as well be a damn superpower(way to go, america).
look at it this way- for every 10 normal questions you answer, answer one of these dingbat questions. because if we don't answer them the first time, they'll ask it again and again and again.... one time I saw the same question posted six times in 24 hours. dingbats need help too. and they are by far much easier to assist.

Hi can I say that I LOVE your advice? You're straight forward and logical and you make people get a sense of perspective. I've asked you a question before but I don't know if you remember it. It's not vital to this current question but some of the background might sound familar... or not but oh well. SO here it goes.
I'm a fifteen year old girl, a sophomore. (I'll be sixteen in less than a month). And for about three years I've been really close with this guy. We'll call him Matt. (He is currently a junior, seventeen). When I say close, I mean like really good friends. Now, last year I dated this tool (one that I asked you a question about) who was a total dick to me. He pressured/forced me into a lot of (sexual) stuff and was an all around jerk. When the dick dumped me in a text after seven months and proceeded to jerk me around all summer, Matt was there to tell me I didn't deserve it. There was one night in particular that he let me cry on his shoulder for about two hours and he basically just let me spill my guts to him. I've told him stuff about me that I haven't even told my best girl friends... But at the time I only had friendly feelings towards him and he had "a thing" with another girl. When school started we both were dating other people. Around winter break though we both broke up with our S.O. around the same time. And I PROMISE it had nothing to do with Matt and I having feeligns for each other. We weren't like that. However... during winter break we started texting every single day. We continued to get closer and closer, and I'm not going to lie. I started to like him. But he would constantly say things like "you're like a sister to me". But it would be casually mentioned, like we never talked about us ever being more than friends and we never discussed our feelings so I have no idea if he even had any or if he knew I did... But since then we still talk almost every single day. He asked me to prom but we didn't kiss or anything. He is extremely flirty with me though. He has a really dirty sense of humor so he often jokes around by like hitting on me. It's all very confusing.
The thing is... I really like the kid. I really really like him. And I think its too late... He's I guess talking to this girl from another school that supposedly likes him? but is also talking to other guys? I don't really know... but they text. I don't know who initiates though. I think he knows I'm jealous... but I don't know if he knows the motivation. The other night he texted me and I texted back but then he never replied. I saw him later at a party and he was talking to a friend of the girl from another school that I think he has a thing with. The friend and him were talking about how he had texted her like thirty minutes ago and she had never replied... I think he noticed I got upset cause later that night he came up to me and was hugging me and was like "I'm sorry I never replied to you..." and tried to hold my hand and I was just so mad at him... And I just don't know what to do. Becuase this kid is liek my best friend. And I think he thinks thats all this is. Me just being jealous that another girl is getting more attention than me. NOt that I'm jealous he might have feelings for her. I've never told him how I've felt. And I thnk I'm an idiot for that. But I also think its too late. I don't know what to do. I'm scared to tell him because it will kill me to get shot down and to have anything ruin our friendship. That would be worse than anything... I think. I really don't know what to do. I'm really falling for this kid but I don't know if there is anything I can do:(
its never too late. hell, a lot of my girlfriends were friends for years before we started dating. you don't get surprised as much when it comes to skeletons in the closet and/or random psychotic behavior(though one of them turned out to be a crazy manipulative whacko after we started dating, but thats beside the point), so it makes the relationship easier because you don't have to worry about what the person may be hiding.
you might want to give your own feelings a good thorough audit before you do anything in order to ensure that you're doing this for the right reasons. to me, it sounds like you are. Now, when you bring up the dating thing, try to do it in a relaxed setting. that way if the attempt does go to hell, you guys can always go back to playing videogames or whatever.
"He has a really dirty sense of humor so he often jokes around by like hitting on me"
-he may be "joking around", but I suspect there is a grain of truth/desire in his jesting.
good luck

So, I'm a very mellow person, i don't enjoy drama, yet i like dealing with other peoples, thus advicenators. But i like to know random stuff just cause i can, so here's an easy to answer question for all of you people out there. Tell exactly what it is that makes you like that one special person, maybe it'll be an eye opener for some of you.
hahahaha!! that last one was priceless.
okay, the one thing that makes me like that special person...
hint: NOT her penis.
personality trait would have to be compassion. you can tell a lot by how a girl treats animals, if she's in good with my dog, then she's my kind of girl.
physical trait would be her eyes. if a girl smiles and her eyes show it, it drives me up the wall. if she's got the dead eyes of a wanton killing machine(like that hannah montana girl), then I will as a rule be armed at all times around her.
you never know when the inner psychopath will reach out with them.

i cheated on my husband and at first when i told him he was very angry. we have been able to talk about it but i still feel like we need more help because it feels like we have just swept everything under the rug. What do i do or do i just leave it alone?
well, you can leave it alone, but that sleeping dog is going to wake up with a vengeance the next time you guys have an argument. you will eventually have to talk about it(or yell, if you leave it alone), so I suggest you get that shit out in the open right now. go to a marriage counsellor, your minister, whoever. just as long as you two get this shit finished in an appropriate manner. I've said it before, and I'll say it again- healthy relationships are about mutual respect and caring for one another, not one side having the upper hand.
you're sitting on a time bomb of your own creation. disarm it, or face the consequences.
