[ Singles & Dating ] Open Question : I need boyfriend/family advice...this is a long story and I dunno what to do?

Posted: 30 May 2011 02:46 PM PDT

Well...I have been dating my boyfriend for a little over 4 years. He did break up with me in February and we were broken up for a couple of months and then we started talking again and are back together. He broke up with me because he didn't see us working out in the future and that we came from two different family backgrounds and stuff like that. I guess things were starting to become to much with us and that was our longest break in the 4 years that we had. We are back together now but he recently moved back home to Texas where he is from. He wanted to go because all of his family and friends are there and he missed it. I understand. He also has more opportunities there for work and seems to be happier there. Of course I wanted him to stay in CA for me but that would just be wrong. So anyways, during our 2 month breakup I was pretty upset and vented a lot to my family and friends. My family now knows more than they knew about my boyfriend..I guess more negative things about him. I think my family liked him and thought he was a nice guy and stuff..but after a couple years of us dating he stopped going to college and was kind of lost and didn't know what he wanted to do. He is 28 and I am 23. He is kind of unmotivated and not sure of what he wants to do with his life. So my parents heard all of these things from me and they think that we are broken up still. They do know that he recently moved away too. But my parents don't know that we have started dating again and are trying to make things work long distance. We have been through a lot together and I know that he loves me and I love him. I am going to visit him this summer but I don't know how to break it to my parents. My plan for our relationship is to take it one day at a time, and see what he does with his life out in Texas and if he get's it figured out. If not, I will end it because I cannot be with someone like that forever. I am just scared to see what my parents will say, especially my mom. She will judge me and tell me I am not smart for chasing this guy around..bla bla bla. But over the 4 years, my parents really don't know what type of relationships I had with my boyfriend..they only saw him maybe 8 times over those 4 years at birthdays and family events. So they really DON'T KNOW him like I do. How do I break it to my parents that we are dating again and have worked things out? I love this guy a lot and know that we have something special. Just need advice as to how to tell my parents... I know that it is my life and I am growing and learning from things right now. I don't know if we will be together forever or not. I am just taking it one day at a time.

[ Hair ] Open Question : Should I get a perm? Has anyone had great success with a perm?

Posted: 30 May 2011 02:45 PM PDT

My hair is long,straight and so boring because it won't curl or anything! My hair hasn't been dyed in nearly two years and is in good condition. I always condition it when I wash it etc and give it regular treatments. I really suit wavy hair a lot better than straight hair and its so annoying because I can't have it :( I'd prefer average condition wavy hair than great condition straight hair. What do you think?

[ Family ] Open Question : My brother is moving out and he owned a part of the home?

Posted: 30 May 2011 02:45 PM PDT

Me and My wife and my brother got a home back in 1999. Now he is moving out. Now, I know everything else... My simple question is, now there are 2 people who own the house. Can I cancel my home heating (Natural gas) contract and not incur a fee? My brother signed up for a 5-year contract and we are paying double for natural gas then we should be... My lawyer said that these things will be discharged? Does that mean the gas contract is as well? Because if it is I can save thousands of dollars... I do not want to call the gas company, Direct Energy are evil people. Likely use my situation and screw me over lol...

[ Marriage & Divorce ] Open Question : Frustrated Being Single?

Posted: 30 May 2011 02:45 PM PDT

I wanted to ask the ladies of GWS a question. I'm in my 20's, a virgin, & somewhat religious/conservative. I do like to drink and party every now & then, but not regularly. I'm fairly attractive, friendly, in shape, & I try to be modest/humble. Anyway, I don't come across as a desperate girl. I mostly hang out w/ my friends/family, but I've heard from friends that I come across as a serious kind of girl, not a loose,playful girl. I guess my question is: do I need to change who I am? Reserved & quiet? I mean, I still have my virginity & I see "loose" girls w/ boyfriends all the time. Is there something wrong w/ me?

[ Birds ] Open Question : Whats wrong with this Mourning Dove?

Posted: 30 May 2011 02:45 PM PDT

So at least once a month a bird flies into my living room window. I always go outside and make sure they're ok. Usually I hold the bird till its got its wits about it and then it flies off. A few months ago a female cardinal slammed into the window and it took about 4 hours for her to be ok enough to fly. About 3 days ago a female mourning dove (possibly juvenile) plowed into the window at full speed and knocked herself out. I took her in and have been looking after her. She doesn't seem to be able to fly. When I try to let her go she kinda....hops and flaps. Her wing isn't broken, but the left one doesn't seem to work properly or something. she can flap it and move it but she cant fly for some reason. Maybe she knocked herself retarded when she hit the window? Or its just sprained? If she never flies again she's got a good home but I'd like to return her to the wild so she can be a normal, free birdy. Any ideas? I think she might be juvenile because she's smaller than all the other ones I've seen but she's adult enough to fly and has full adult markings. Is it possible to bonk your head so hard you forget how to fly? Any help greatly appreciated. Oh, and I've named her Amelia, because she's famous for crashing and can't fly for sh!t. =D

She almost looks like an American Pit Bull Terrier, but like I said I'm not 100% sure. Just tell me what to look for on her to tell what kind of breed she is and I'd gladly apprectiate it.

[ Singles & Dating ] Open Question : Ladies please help, would you call if you were her?

Posted: 30 May 2011 02:45 PM PDT

I met this great girl last week. We hit it off really well, exchanged numbers etc. I was a little forward with her on our second meeting (not a date) and tried to kiss her. She said "not yet, wait for our date". Although she said she was cool with me after that, I felt bad a few days later and sent her an apology email. We had had plans for a date prior to me emailing her the apology, she said she would call me if she got out of work on time, but she ended up working late, so we did not meet for our date. I called her once and she did not return my call, but I found out she was telling her friends good things about me. I sent the apology email a few days ago and have not gotten a reply. Last night I called her and left a voicemail explaining how I felt, and pretty much leaving the ball in her court. I told her I thought she was a sweet person, that I would understand if she wasn't interested or was involved with someone else, and that I wanted a chance to talk with her if/when she was ready. Basically I left the ball in her court! I'm not normally clingy at all. I have other pretty women that are into me, usually have no problem getting dates (not bragging, it's just that this girl was really sweet and her and I seemed to "click", she is what I've always dreemed of in a woman, and I could tell the moment she walked in the door, whereas the other women I date are nice, but they are not her!). Do you think she will call back?

[ Friends ] Open Question : How do I handle my jealous friend?

Posted: 30 May 2011 02:45 PM PDT

Ok so I'm a girl in school and i have a friend. We've been friends for a long time, even before kindergarten. But now that we're older, she seems to be really jealous of me. Her parents are getting divorced, and her family is kinda tight on money. We've had a sort of jokey, fun, relationship, but every once in awhile she'll say something like "Alright Little Miss Perfect" Just today she said "have fun being perfect. don't waste your luck :)" Every time she says things like this it's over email or chat. She used to do things like this rarely, but now I see it happening more and more now. She also makes negative remarks about herself, like she's "fat, ugly, disgusting" Yet every now and then she tries to beat me, even when it's not a competition. She'll try to dress better than I do, wear shorter shorts, have more boys to like her, etc. I really want my friend to see me as a FRIEND, not as a girl she HAS to be better then to be happy. Any suggestions of what to do while still keeping our friendship fun and filled with laughter and jokes?

[ Religion & Spirituality ] Open Question : Scientists: Is it possible to break the natural laws(law of the science)?

Posted: 30 May 2011 02:45 PM PDT

As we know for the light of the science, the movements of every particle of this universe, smallest to super biggest, A to Z, is governed by the natural laws. We know, there is some extreme field of this universe where the natural laws are significantly modified. For example black-hole, very biginning of the big-bang. But there is some suitable and valid reason for the modification. Their extreme mass does effect the normal situation of time and also space. Though we dont know the image of the modification. We need a better theory to go further. But I want to ask it is really logically possible to break the natural laws? If it does, then how?

[ Other - Family & Relationships ] Open Question : PLEASE PLEASE HELP!! How can I protect myself at work? Really long but very important!?

Posted: 30 May 2011 02:45 PM PDT

Sorry it's so long but I really need your help! I work at the mall, at my local NFL team store. I've been working here for a little over 2 months and I love it! The pay is good for what we do, absolutely nothing! It's never that busy and all we really do it sit down and get paid. Anywho, I just turned 18 and, not to sound gay & cocky, I find myself pretty hott. I have a really nice bod and pretty big boobs. About 2 weeks after I started this job, this creepy mental guy started coming to the store and awkwardly and creepily making conversation. He'd say things like: "you wanna be my girl?" Thankfully my good friend and co-worker was there and dealt with him. But after the 3rd time, I as required to always work with someone and have police escort to my car at night. A few more incidents went down with creepy guys coming in and saying weird things but that was nbd. Since the creepy guys topped showing up, I wasn't required to have police escorts anymore and started working by myself. Well today some really weird, creepy guy came in. About 20 minutes ago actually. He just looked so sketch and was watching me from outside of the store for about 10 minutes until he decided to come in. When he came in, he just kepy staring at me and not even looking for anything. So to be safe, I grabbed my keys and cell and went to the door. There were other customers so I whispered to them to please stay until he left and theys aid okay. Well I left and they finally left but I was thinking to myself: How will I protect myself if he comes back? I have the mall cops' number in my phone but I'll never have time to type in my password. The store is tiny and only has 3 entrances/exits: the store entrance, the entrance to the back, and the entrance to the bathroom, through the back of the store. The only way out is through the main entance and I can only imagine it being so hard to get passed the creeper. I could hide in the bathroom but the door can't be that hard to open. I'm so scared! what are some things I could do if I really needed to protect myself from some creep. I've had too many incidents and thankfully, God helped me out but this is only a sign that I need to be better prepared. Sorry it's so long; Thank You!
