Guilty

So I kinda melted this cup I got from the circus 2 years ago and my grandparents paid like $9 for it. It was a complete accident but now I'm feeling really stupid and guilty about it. What can I do?
P.s. I can't get another one cause the circus has moved on to somewhere else.

Best friend turned husband has become so clingy that it's exhausting.
Posted Tuesday July 24 2012, 1:05 pm
Hi, I'm a 27 years old woman from India.
I have been married for almost 2 years now and I love my husband very much. Before our marriage, we used to be the best of friends since 5 or 6 years and back then were pretty open to dating or being in relationships with different people. Our families knew about our friendship quite well (no relationship, that happened right before our marriage) and weren't apprehensive about it in any way. But time passed and being in a conservative Indian society, we had to settle down as per our families' wishes individually. Neither of us was okay with the idea of "arranged marriage" (it's like getting married to a complete stranger, for me). So, since we were in the right age, had proper jobs a...

Immaturity
Posted Tuesday July 24 2012, 12:39 pm
22/f. I have asked similar questions before, however, I am attempting to ask another, because it isn’t exactly the same. My other questions have dealt with particular instances, this one deals more with the whole issue. Ever since I can remember, no one has ever held my mother accountable for her actions. She could do the worse things possible and everyone will always defend her. I am not even exaggerating. This notion that she does nothing wrong is inside of my family only. When those outside my family see how she treats me, they cannot believe their eyes and get angry and upset at the things that the rest of my family does to me as well.
My mom chooses to be angry with me upon her own personal feelings. “Today, I feel ...

Should I Rat Out My Brother?
Posted Sunday July 15 2012, 11:46 pm
My brother THINKS that he's an awesome brother, father, son, and everything else when the truth is that he's done everyone in our family wrong. I won't go into it all, but it's all because his wife hates us and keeps him from us and he's such a wuss, he can't stand up to her. He's a car dealer and was supposed to help my sister get her daughter a car. Her daughter is looking forward to it SO much. Her mom almost bought her a car from a dealer closer to their town, but when my brother heard, he said he had found a car for her and was going to bring it down in a couple days. It's been months since then and he's been making excuse after excuse for why he can't come and they can't go get it. I've just found out that he gave the car to his wife'...

Should I tell my mom about past mistakes?
Posted Sunday July 15 2012, 4:40 am
I'm 16 years old, female. When I was 15 I was in a bad place in my life and during my freshmen year of high school I slept with three guys. I wasn't ready to have sex and I regret it but I've moved on from it and I now have a completely different outlook. I'm not having sex again for a long time and I have good values and completely respect myself. Now that I have come to terms with my mistake and have completely changed I want to tell my mom what happened. We've always had a very open relationship and I don't like having secrets. I kept my 'bad girl' phase very well hidden so she has no clue I've done anything bad or immoral. I'm afraid if I tell her she'll think I'm a slut and won't believe that I've changed. I know she'll be disappointe...

adopted and feeling disconnected

hi i was adopted when i was ten, eight years ago. my brothers and sister do not accept me. they were grown and out of the house. they told my mom that they didnt want her to adopt me before i was adopted and later said that they hoped she could be as great a mother as she was to them. i had a lot of ups and downs growing up and my non-adopted siblings got to hear all about it. they and i are very distant apart and when they are around. they sometimes act like they hate seeing me. i would never call them on my own nor would they call me. i'm afraid that they will never like me and we will be a dysfunctional family like my mom said. earlier this year before my parents went out of town, they went out to eat with my brother and the next day wen...
