Q: Ugh...okay I HATE my clothes. I went through this whole phase recently of "I care what everyone else thinks and my opinion doesnt matter". And that includes clothes. I wear the same old crappy polo tees from hollister and stupid jeans and stupid shoes. I just look like every other boring un-unique "prep". Well, i've finally grown out of this. I now want to start dressing like my personality which is edgy, unique, and artsy. I like rock/emo/indie music if it helps? I'm looking for some fashion tips (example...stuff like wearing your belt to the side, etc.) And some stores online I could check out to help me dress more "edgy". Also, i dont have alot of money. How can i rock out a plain polo? Any hair ideas? Makeup ideas? I hate dressing "preppy" when inside im not like that. THANKS!
I agree with the others about Urban Outfitters. If there isn't one nearby, try their website www.urbn.com. They have great sales/clearence. Also, Target has some really cute clothes that are inexpensive. Thrift stores are great too. You can find some really unique stuff that is very inexpensive.

I don't think it's so much WHAT you wear, but HOW you wear it. Try layering clothing. Wear darker nailpolish. Try different jewelry.

Just do what you like and you'll be happy.

Q: I'm involoved with a married man and have been for two years now. We started out as just friends and the relatonship evolved.He's scared to leave his wife because they share two children together. I'm very much in love with him and want to be with him. Lately I've been feeling he's been wasting my time because he hasn't left her yet and I feel he never will. When I ask when will he leave or make a decision on leaving, he tells me he cant leave his kids with her and wants to know he could get full custody before he leaves. What should I do in this situatuion? HEEEELLLLLPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!
Why would he leave his wife when he can have his cake and eat it too? He has the best of both worlds right now. I would leave him if I were you. You will never be happy in a situation like this. If he hasn't left her in these two years, he's not going to leave her and as soon as you accept that, it will be easier for you to move on. I know it's easier said than done because you are in love with him. But the sooner you do it, the better off you are.

And next time, find an available man!!
