Pants
Posted Sunday April 8 2007, 5:21 pm
I am afraid that because of the story below that every time I wear a pair of pants she is thinking that I lost weight and the pants that I am wearing are big. However, today I tried on two pairs of summer pants and asked her what she thought as I tried each one on and she said the pants look fine. So what I am asking is am I overreacting and projecting what I think she will say. ORIGINAL STORY TO REFRESH YOUR MEMORY: I am thin and A FEW DAYS AGO when I came home from work I changed into a tee-shirt but wore the same pants I wore to work. She asked me as I sat down to eat if I lost weight, and I said no, but this upset me. I said to her that she always tells me I look beautiful. She said you do look beautiful but your pants look bigger. And she told me that I am skinny enough

What is your definition of skinny enough and is my mom saying that I was overweight before and now I am skinny or am I reading too much into this: STORY TO REFRESH YOUR MEMORY: I am thin and A FEW DAYS AGO when I came home from work I changed into a tee-shirt but wore the same pants I wore to work.

I have a huge problem and it's never going away!!!
Posted Friday April 6 2007, 2:46 pm
I have a huge problem with my family. My brother, who is autistic, gets on my last nerve because he takes advantige of his disability, AND I have to clean up after him, and my mom, and myself. My mom, well lets just say, all the pressure is on me. Plus, she looks to me to be her support system (not money)24/7, I mean I love my mom, but I dont know if I can take the pressure. BUT school, thats a whole other problem. It's like taking your whole entire grade that, hates you and wants you dead, and locks them and you up in huge room. Worst of all, none of them realy even know me, so why do they hate me? Can you PLEASE give some advice what to do?

Family
Posted Thursday April 5 2007, 11:31 pm
Everyone in my family tells me that I have a great memory. On April 3, 2006 (the 2nd Night of Passover) I was having dinner with my mom, my sister, brother-in-law and 2 nephews I was telling them a story about how in 1998 when my younger nephew was seven I took him to see Prince of Egypt and once scene scared him and what happened that night when they were putting him to bed. Any way they denied it happened. And tonight my Mom said just because they dont remember doesnt mean I am wrong or they are wrong. But what I dont understand is why would they ALWAYS tell me I have a great memory and then do the above.

Im literally crying right now...I feel that my family doesnt love me anymore.

16/f.. okay, well my mom is always a really chill and laidback person.. and i love her to death.. which is why she makes me so upset sooo easily. now i won't go into detail, but i have scoliosis [i'm not like defective, it just causes some hardships sometimesss] and she sometimes babies me cause of it.. or feels bad for me and gives in to most things i say. i also have a boyfriend whos the same age as me [4 months older] who i've been with for 9 and 1/2 months.. we all love him to death. but whenever he wants to go somewhere and invites me, if for whatever reason my mom doesn't let me go, she tells me to just let him be with his friends.. which is no problem for me- he IS allowed to have a life haha. but anyway, now he's going on a 2-3 day ...

My sister
Posted Tuesday April 3 2007, 9:38 pm
A little background. I buy jewelry at the 99 cent store and the jewelry I buy looks like I could have brought them at Lord & Taylors, Bloomingdales, Nordstrums - I get a lot of compliments on my jewelry. However, my sister is such a snob so she will not buy anything UNLESS you pay a lot. STORY: Tonight I was wearing a fun ring and she commented on the ring and asked if I brought it at the 99 cent store. I told her no that this was just a fun ring. However, the jewelry I buy at the 99 cent store does not look 99 cent, but she laughed, but my Mom told her that last night when Anna was here for the first night of Passover, Anna loved the necklace that I (meaning me) wore. I called my sister a snob, and she got mad, and said; dont ever call...

For my bithday, my step mom gave me her '98 convertible BMW z3 Roadster. There was some things that needed to be fixed on it such as inspection, registration, a bald tire, and the rear window was sun burnt and needed to be replaced. My dad also added a new radio. Note that my step mom GAVE me the car and DAD has been the one to fix all of it's problems.
The only problem is that I don't have a lisence and everytime I mention going to my driving school and picking up a form for classes, he avoids the subject so it makes me think he doesn't want me to have a lisence or that he doesn't really care.
Now my dad has given me the rules in driving my car but then when he drives it, he breaks most of the rules and I am v...

first kiss
Posted Monday April 2 2007, 11:02 pm
how do you know when you should have your first kiss? i really like this guy and i think he likes me too. so i want to kiss him reeeaaaallly badly but dont really know how to go about it. also there is a chance that he doesnt like me as more than friends. so how can i approach him in a way that is not too awkward. i dont plan on asking him if he likes me or telling him that i like him. the signs are there and if they are misread than i cant really do anything about it. i liked him before and he didnt like me because he was going through something in his life. now that he is over that situation he seems to like me. so how, when, where should i kiss him. should i kiss him at all? specific details please. thanx i luv you guys. =)

Am I being treated wrong?
Posted Monday April 2 2007, 11:25 am
with the fridge handle frm our old fridge. its made out of metal. i really don't think she has the right to be doing that regardless of the things i do which are not that damn seriuous. i have no life. she calls me ugly, talks about my lips being big and makes me feel really bad. i graduate in june and i think i need to find the courage 2 tell her i want 2 go dwn south and go to school dwn there so i can live with my aunt in miami. it's just so hard. she tells me i need 2 get out and she's not responsible for me but she always contradicts her ownself. she still treats me like a child. i know if i was to really decide to leave she wouldn't let it be just that she's all talk...my aunt is now worried because she thinks she's going to hurt me (...

Posted Sunday April 1 2007, 10:36 am
hey okay so my dad is 58, and he quit smoking in thesummer of 2005. He had smoked for 40 years and i was proud when i FINALLY MADE him stop. cause i know how hard it was for him.
I was wondering if his health a little bit better than when he smoked. Any ways to make his lungs cleaner or something? cause even if he stopped, he'd been smoking for 40 Years. and like a lot each day.
Thanks!

REJECTED
Posted Thursday March 29 2007, 8:48 pm
I am adopted, and i want to know the WHOLE story of my life. I have talked with my family all about my twin brother, and they tell me he died. They dont give me details, saying in that time nobody talked about things like that. Every time i ask them, they spring new things at me, and it doesnt make sense anymore.
i want to know my real mom, my real dad, my twin brother. I want my parents to send a post-card to my first daddy. but my 2nd dad wont do it, coming up with excuses.
i dont know what to do. I feel so rejected.
