I knowww... they watch as much news as they possibly can... it annoys me... But anyway, the room mate thing... it is a good idea, however in my case it would be difficult because I cant get a job therefore i wont be able to go half on the rent. My anxiety problems stand in the way of certain things in my life. This includes attending classes, getting a job,...... And about moving in with the guy, its more because i want to be with him as opposed to just moving away from my parents just for the sake of it. And I have very much considered that i should be sure that i want to move in with him before i do so. So i will give it time, spend time with him etc. until i feel comfortable that he is the one that i want to live with. I was liking the idea of living with him and having him love me and take care of me. but my parents say that i should be independent and not hve to depend on a man. But how can iiii be independent? I feel like it is my only option. I'm not going to live with my parents forever, and i dont know if i will ever be able to work.... maybe with alot of therapy... but i have tried going to therapy sessions and i've taken anxiety meds and i have benefitted from nothing. So i am losing hope. I want tolive with this special guy, it would make me happy. And i think that he would take care of me. If i dont want to live with mommy and daddy too much longer, and the room mate thing wont work out, what are my options? please help me =[ *crying*

Thank you! I've been so upset about my situation (feeling used) that I never realized how he's feeling. I'll definately take your advice and talk to him before making any decisions.

Thank you so much Dr. Chad. I will try to find that book. I gotta admit that you read my mind, cause I am working my butt off developing my leadership skills. Problem is, that guy never participates in the meetings. He just sits there, not even pays attention! My plan is to interact with the members more and make them feel important.
Again, thank yu so much for the advice

Thankyou so much Dr. Chad for your thoughtful and sensitive answer. Yes, deep down I always knew he probably wouldnt leave his wife and maybe it was a hopeless dream or fantasy that he would phone me one day and say that he left his wife for me and was in love with me.
The last time we talked (I phoned him on Xmas Day) he told me he would phone me on New Years. I think that would be the perfect time to tell him that I can't be friends with him anymore and that it's just too painful for me. I've been thinking a lot lately and I am still SO young, I am only 27. I should be keeping up my heels and dating other guys close to my age instead of pining away for a almost twice my age married guy. I really do want a boyfriend and I get so angry at this married guy for stringing me a long.
Well once again thanks for the great advice.

You might be totally right about that. I've noticed I tend to sick more often whenever I eat anything with cheese in it -- regular milk is okay, but cheese kills me. Which stinks, because 3 of the 12 foods I like contain cheese...

This wasnt advice, this was just critisism of free expression.

That's great thanks. It's not a case of how much it will cost her as we live in the UK so ALL healthcare is free for people that are pregnant.
I'll keep trying to work on her but it's good to know that they'll pick it up anyway if she doesn't pluck up the courage to go for the test.
Thanks for you help.

"Personally I believe you have to choose between the two." This is why I gave you a rating of three. I asked anyone who believes evolution and creation cannot go hand in hand not to answer my question. Everything that you said is common knowledge. You should read some of Anton Wilson's writings on the "Enlightenment". You'll be more open minded to "having your cake and eating it too". Thank you for responding anyway.

Death and divorce are nothing alike. You should go into marrige with the intent of staying together for as long as you live. Why else would you want to get married?
