I am down and out.I havelost almosteverything that mattered to me in life and now I found out that i am sick very sick.
I have decieded that it would be better for everyone if i end my life

SO i need to know if there will be any help from the government for my exwife and sons when i do this.Please just tell me if there is someone for her to contact to help them thru this.

Sir your family loves you, no matter what you do. I love you Sir. I would completly hate it if you were gone. What if somthing great is soppose to happen to you, like your the man to disscover flying cars. Sir I love you and I have faith in you not to end you life. Once I was about to kill myself but I realized I didnt even have a real life yet. God created you for a reason. I'm sure killing yourself isnt the reason. Please Sir I want you to stay I really do. I love you like I would love a best friend. So please pay attention to me when I say dont end your life, your a great man and you dont deserve that. Good luck, I hope you stay here as long as God wants you too.


I've been taking Yaz birth control now for a month. My periods used to be real long and horrible. When i get my next period will it be lighter and shorter if i've only been on Yaz for a month? (link)
It's diffrent for all women. I was like you before. On my first month of Yaz it was a bit lighter and ended a day before it usauly does. And over time it got really light and short.


my face has been breaking out lately. but i havnt had my period for like 10 days now. i have proactive but it hasnt been working lately. (link)
I use DreamCream (no I didnt leave out a space). I have really bad acne and it really works.


Ok, the girl looked at me for 3 seconds 2 times in language arts and sort of glanced at me a couple times. I tried to talk to her in math class, because, she has a tooth that is loose, and it sounds like gum whenever she moves it and I asked her "What is that noise you are making?" So, she does this, "It's a loose tooth," She pauses and looks down at her paper, "It does this whenever it moves." She was talking to the paper, which makes me think she was nervous.

She also never looks at me at lunch, and we sit only 1 table away from each other.

I AM CONFUSED??? (link)
She might of just been day dreaming in language arts. And I think that she would act the same way about the tooth to anyone one. And why would she look at you in lunch, most people just want to take a brake from school and eat lunch, not worry about who is sitty across from you.

Ok, i know why someone would like someone [as in you find then attractive, they have a good personality, and they are kind and caring people] that part makes sense. But ive always wondered what it is exactly that creates the feeling of liking a person?
For example there could be two guys: both are sweet, friendly, and good looking [obviously everyone has a different idea of what good looks are but physical attraction is also part of liking a person] So both these guys would be cool and fun to hang out with, but maybe a person would only be attracted to one. I wonder why, what creates this attraction to only one, when the other is just as good? There has to be something about a person that you find special, maybe like something about them inspires you. I'm not sure if there is an exact science to it but if anyone might have any ideas please let me know
thanx =D (link)
My math teacher told me its because of somethign called the "Golden Rectangle." The golden rectangle is typically a ratio, and it's what humans find most appealing to the eyes. Like the Parthanon (sp?) was made using this ratio -- dates waaaaayy back (meaning its been appealing to human kind, subconsciously). Anyways, the attractive person typically has the features according to the ratio. Like what most people consider attractive, you could measure it by using this. Like the space from your eye to nose and things like that, top of eyebrows to bottom, lips all that.

Isnt that cool?

I remember from a long time ago (childhood food memory) me and my grandmother used to make peanutbutter balls i remember them being brown (the color of peanut butter) and not rolled in powdered sugar so that it looked white.. it was brown. It had seeds in it, I am assuming sesame seeds.

Does anybody have a recipe similiar to such as what I describe? (link)
1 cup peanut butter.
1 cup honey.
2 cups powdered milk.
1 to 1/2 cups crushed cornflakes.
1 to 1/2 cups finely chopped walnuts or pecans.
1 cup powdered sugar,
1 cup peanut butter.
1 cup honey.
2 cups powdered milk.
1 to 1/2 cups crushed cornflakes.
1 to 1/2 cups finely chopped walnuts or pecans.
1 cup powdered sugar, Mix peanut butter, honey, and milk together in a large bowl to form very thick mixture.
Roll mixture in small balls about the size of a walnut.
Roll the ball in either the crushed cornflakes, finely chopped nuts, or powdered sugar.
Place on waxed paper and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Enjoy!

Ok ssso my name isss Sara ssso whenever I ussse an SSS I put three of them. Haha. So anyway...yeah.


So I met this guy a couple of weeks back and we exchanged AIM screen names and the night after we met, we talked for like three hours about everything - him, me, our interests, what we look for in a relationship. I thought we really made a connection. Then, I tried talking to him the night after that, and he could barely keep a conversation with me. Whenever he seems to be ignoring me on AIM, I just stop talking to him for a few days. Then, after a few days, I go back and try to talk to him again. We've only had about three real conversations but they were all really amazing and I really want to get to know this guy. I guess my question is, how do I get this guy to keep a conversation with me? Do you think it's worth trying? Or is he just a lost cause? Thanks. (link)
Do some small talk flirting. If you and your crush know you like each other, but you are shy in front of each other, do some small talk. Start by finding your similarities. Than talk about school, work, anything you do together or anything you know about him.
Find you similarities. After a while, you'll know each other a little better. Than start texting, AIM or emailing. That will give you something else to talk to him about. Make forwards with pictures that are funny so when you see each other you can laugh about.
Maybe some gossip will come around of him liking you! Soon enough he'll tell friends or tell you if he is interested. Maybe it will take a month for him to like you. But if you know he doesn't like you. Don't spread the word about how you like him. That will make things awkward. Don't be too clingy.
Don't be a show-off/snob just to attract him.



hey guys! alright so me and this kid just started talking. hes walked me home the past couple of daysm hes really sweet and i really like him. We have a theater thing to do together friday night and he offered me to go over his house after school. He wants to watch a movie and then we're gonna walk to rehearsal together, but he wants me to pick the movie. I don't want to pick something he's going to hate. Any idea's on what a good movie would be for us to watch?


(He's kinda punky, mohawk, funny, one of those skater kids you could say. And i'm one of those girls that will watch anything as long as it's not scary) (link)
OH OH OH I have completly got this one! You should watch "Monie Python and the Holy Grail". Its so funny.

The movie: Meet the Spartans is good to see (the one where they make fun of celebs and stuff in a REALLY funny way) everyone will like it, and its not scary. Also, 10,000BC is good too, it might be a little "scary" at some points (but not creepy scary.) Good Luck!!!


im moving in June and i love my bf soo much and this is the first serious relationship either of us ha been in. i might even be falling in love with him. but we only see each other every weekend ocasionally every couple weekends already and being far apart i just dont think will work. we dont really like the idea but love each so much we cant imagine not dating. we have been best friends for a few yrs and still would be but we love dating too. the thing is i wouldnt see him except for like three times a yr max and we would never hug or hold hands or kiss! and he and i love doing that stuff. what should i do? we are in high school/im 14 hes 16 (link)
If you guys really like each other, then try to meet up more if possible, take life as it comes. Maybe join a camp over the summer that you guys can see each other at. Make a schedule, for example: call each other every day, or night, or morning. Im each other, keep up with emails, get video online chat, etc. It will work if you are both dedicated. If you two are just in different towns, get a job and work at the same place, go to private co ed school together. Good Luck!!!!


At school we are doing jello wrestling, and to be in it you need to play a characters and kinda have a skit.

My friends and I are going to be the deal or no deal models. There are four of us and we would all like to have on the same dress like the tv show.

Where can we find some that are really cheap, any kind is fine, just not too too formal, under $25 would be nice since we are going to probably ruin them by rolling around in jello

Thanks

Thanks again, and sorry to post this again! (link)
That looks like it will look AMAZING on you! If you are nervous, and are scared about doing something so drastic to your hair, then you can revise it if you want. But its hair, and it will grow back...i love the layers in the photo, imagining you with layers seems to look really good. And you have a face that looks versital, and can go with just about any style. Ask your hair cutter how much work it will take to put it the way you like it, and ask her/his opinion.


well like ive had a fever of 100.3-100.8 everyday for almost the past three weeks. i feel perfectly fine, but i dont understand why i keep having a fever. and it changes all the time. and this morning i woke up not feeling well and i took my temperature and it was normal. i dont understand why i have a fever when i feel fine but when i dont its normal. can anybody tell me whats wrong?and ive had a low grade fever since december and so i went to the doctor and told them about it and it was normal then so they didnt do anything about it and i want to know whats going on. (link)
Just watch yourself and be aware of your feelings. Take some advil, it will make your temperature go down. Sometimes, wierd things just happen like that. I would try to see another doctor also (not saying that yours is bad, but just to get a second opinion.) Also, if it persists and increases, I would just take a visit to the hospital, just in case. Eat healthy, see if that starts to work (if you havent already haha,) and try different temperature thermometers. Like try the one that you stick in your mouth, and get an electric that you put in your ear, and if you have an electric, try changing the battery, and make sure it is on the right setting (child, adult.)

also, google your symptoms, and see what comes up.


okay well i got my cartialge piercing done like i say 4 days again and i been cleaning it NON STOp with the thing they gave me to cleans.
the thing is that is a lil red it not like wen you tlak to someone and there like WOW yout ear is red its more like you look in the mirror and you notice it being red but most peole cant really see it but you can , also the back hurts a little bit more then the front is that normal? ALSO it hurts wen i move it sometimes like wen i moe it around to clean but i cna turn it and it wont just a bit. Is this all normal?? cause its been 4 days so i dont know PLEASE ANSWER! (link)
It is completely normal, everyone is different, it just so happened that mine were red for about a week and a half. Keep cleaning it, but dont press too hard, take a Qtip and gently clean it (with the solution.) Actually, I found that peroxide worked MUCH better than the solution they gave me! (you might think that it is going to hurt really bad, but it doesnt hurt that bad, and starts to feel much better.) Dont constantly twist it all the time, just every so often...like every 10-20 minutes. When you first get them pierced you have to keep turning them, but when you get to a couple days, you can do it more gradually. ALSO...try Hoop earings...they are amazing! My ear piercer told me that hoops allow your ears to breath, and it actually really helped. It could also be that you are rubbing your ears when you are sleeping, which is okay. And dont take them out in the shower. Sorry for potentially rambling :-) i know how you feel because i was scared too! But its normal dont worry!


okay i have a 20 gauge earring in right now and iwanna switcvh it to a 18. i wanna no will it hurt alot or barlye? (link)
I know someone that got that, they said that it hurt, but just dont play with it, and gradually go into it, like take your time putting it in. If it hurts too much then stop, and wait a couple more days. Trying to fit it in will also start getting it used to switching. But it also depends on your pain "tolerance" as the person below me said. If it hurts too much and you really dont need it, then dont worry about it. Also, ask the person you got your ears pierced with if you can use any numbing gel for it. :-)


Okay so me and my boyfriend broke up last year..we were going out for a month and two weeks..and broke up because my friend kept putting drama in between us. Its been a while sense we broke up and i think i still love him? I had fallen for him sense i first met him and yea. My friends still ask me if i like him and i say no, but i do. Everyone thought we made a good couple when we were going out, and now he's going out with this other girl and he says he doesnt like me anymore..so..i really need some help in thiss. (link)
I know exactaly how you feel, and if he was a great guy, then you probably do still have feelings for him. You have to tell your friends that YOU like him, and they should support you or ask them if they could just not talk about it anymore, because you have no intentions of breaking up. (If you get back together with him.) Make sure that if you guys get back together you spend some time with your friends too. But dont let them be the cause of your breakup. My friends used to have a prob with my bf also. But I (nicely) just told them that I really like him, and they should just give him time, but to please stop talking about him badly right in front of me/to me. You can do it, and my personal advice would be to get back together with him, because you clearly like him. :-)


16-f

im a sophomore in highschool
and i really would LOVE to be a nurse but i dont have any money and cant get a job until maybe september of my junior year i live in iowa, UA and i cant figure our anything that can get me where i want with what little i will have by then.

please help
i really would love it i need it soo bad
thanks (link)
its okay, there are plans you can go on that will give you loans and help you out. Also, I know you said that you cant get a job right now, but when it is winter, summer, fall etc, go around and put flyers in mailboxes for yard works such as lawn mowing, leave raking, dog walking, dog scooper pooper :-), shoveling snow, cleaning the pool, babysitting, and anything else they could possibly need. Just work with a low budget on luxeries for a while, and save all of your change, trust me, it adds up! :-)
