    My parents do not pay for anything? (Warning: huge rant)?

    Gee, i'm sorry you're going through this,and i don't have a real good answer. But i will say this,and i hope you will remember it -- guilt is for criminals and you're not one. You haven't done anything wrong and there is no reason for you to feel "guilty". Your life belongs to YOU, not your...

    i never heard of using a bell. you can try taking the dog out on a daily routine/schedule. use treats and a catch phrase such as "big boy" at potty time. when he goes, say "big boy", immediately give the treat. after a couple days you can encourage him to go by saying "big boy" once in a...

    When somebody makes jokes of rape?

    People are sometimes afraid of things they don't understand. I would say this girl was never raped. I was sexually assaulted before, and i don't find it remotely funny, and would never make a joke of it. Because of my experience, i have encountered others who have gone through the same...

    Feel like a laughing stock...?

    If you are dealing with issues that have stopped you from having what you'd consider a normal life, why not consider therapy? Perhaps you can come to terms with whatever-it-is that you have endured in life, learn to cope in a more positive way, and move forward with things. Once in a while we...

    How I do I talk my wife into adding another woman into our relationship.?

    I suppose if you want your wife's approval, tell her you disrepect her and the marriage and you want to sleep with her friend. I'm sure she'll understand, as she boots you out the door.

    What is it like traveling with your husband/boyfriend in a big truck?

    I did this several times with a friend. It was nice to see other places, but taking a shower at a truck stop, not having much indoor space to relax, no running water available at all times, etc., got to be a drag. I didn't like it. But you might. You will never know til you try.

    Met a guy at a bar, is he interested? Am I playing too hard to get?

    Well, i don't know if it was a booty call or not. I wouldn't bother to contact him either... if he hasn't called, then it's his problem. Nothing wrong with casual sex from time to time, either... just be careful

    9 yr old daughter is afraid of everything and still whines all the time?

    Does someone else in the household whine over things all the time? She could be emulating an adult's behavior. Or, whining and crying may work for her when she wants her way, so it's a bad habit. she probably doesn't even know why she does it. I can understand wanting a light left on and...

    Divorced and the father of my child doesn't always have the best interest of my son

    You and your ex are the child's father, like it or not -- and you CAN NOT control where he takes the child while he has visitation. It's a gun show, not a shoot out! Just let it alone. If you raise a big fuss over a gun show in court, the judge is going to think of you as some sort of...

    What's the best way to introduce a kitten to the outdoors/other cats?

    Dex needs to stay indoors... too much chance for him to get disease from other cats... feline leukemia is one, and even if your pet is vaccinated, they can still get the illness.. it's a very harsh illness and tough death. Cars and dogs can kill cats. I'd advise an indoor life. It won't...

    How do I overcome my past to move on with my future?

    Do you mean you have pent up, angry emotions? I guess i don't understand... but if your emotional condition is affecting your daily life, maybe talk with a therapist for a while. It can be healing to talk with a neutral party, and therapy does work when we work it. I don't understand why your...

    What should I do about my future Monster-In-Law from HELL?

    You need to apologize to your boyfriend. While she is his mother, he is not entitled to stick up for you and confront his mother for you.. not ever. You need to handle your own issues with others. Even if it's his mother. You might set limits and personal boundaries for yourself. You can...
