I'm so tired of life. I have no friends whatsoever. I had a friend named Megan for 1 month but she moved to Alberta. I had another friend also named Megan for about a month - she also moved to Alberta. Then I started thinking, well at least I have my cat and my dog. Well, in the month my dog dies and my cat runs away. I am completely alone all the time. I have my mother but she is 55 and disabled and can't do much. My relatives never communicate with eachother and I never go places for like holidays or visiting or travelling. I do things - go hiking, mountainbiking, sliding, midnight prowls, etc. but it just isn't fun without anyone to do it with. I've been trying to make friends for years. I go to the library a lot. I've joined countless clubs - Girl Guides (which was repulsive, might I add), Cadets, Environthon, Writer's Club, Grass Roots - and still I made no friends. I even joined the Band and Orchestra at school, as well as Track and Field. Nothing. You know, it's not like I'm mentally retarted or something. You know those kids in the class who are a bit weird, but like mentally? Like, they're not fit for Special Ed but they're not exactly "the norm"? It's hard to explain. But I'm not like that. I can communicate as well as anyone else, I dress fine, and I'm a good person. All there seems to be in my life is school. School really sucks when you have no one to share it with. I'm just getting sick and tired. Sick and fucking tired. Sometimes I think of doing drugs. Or becoming anorexic. Or running away, trying to get myself lost. Anything to grab attention, anything.

I'm dating with a guy who is 10 years older than me. He took good care of his deceased wife for 8 years straight, that impressed me and I feel there must be a lot good qualities in him. Our problem is that we haven't had sex yet. I feel like we are not up to that stage yet and sex can't make a guy loves me more. But he doesn't think so, he thinks that having sex would make him love me more, help us become more intimate, and and our relationship stronger. He also worries that we don't share lots of "interests" together. I think love is verb more than noun. So I have done hiking, all sort of outdoor stuff "his interests" with him but he still unsatisfied. We have dated almost a year and we only went shopping once, shopping and reading are my favorites. He is nice but getting irritated easily if things don't go his ways. I am willingly to compromise and do somethings to make him happy. But I feel like he hasn't done enough to please me but complain from time to tme. Our relationship is like a vicious circle that every 3 months he complains something that doesn't end up as he likes. He even agreed that we spent 80% of time doing his interests but why he is still unsatisfied? I need perspectives especially from guys. thanks a million. (more...)

Wealthy people are important to and in our society. But I don?t think they should not receive a special privilege in our society. I think they shouldn?t because they all ready have enough privileges. Also if they have too many privileges they might take advantage of them. Lastly is because those privileges can be given to someone else. That is why I suggest that wealthy shouldn?t have special privileges. One reason I think wealthy people shouldn?t have special advantages is because they already have enough privileges. Because there money let them be able to do and have many things. Such as afford for their children to go to great colleges, the best medical care, and they can live in the nicest and safest neighborhoods. That?s why they already have enough privileges. Another reason is because they might take advantage of their wealthy ness. They might take advantage of their wealthy ness by trying to treat people wrong just because they might think they can control people with their money. Also by trying to get more privileges even though they got more than others. That another reason I disagreed that wealthy people should have special privileges. The last reason I disagree is because those privileges can be given to some else. Like for example if the wealthy person was going to receive free medical help and the poor person wanted it but don?t get it. I say the poor person should get it because they can?t afford it and the wealthy person can. So I think the privilege can be given to someone else. To sum up I disagree to the statement should wealthy people receive special privileges in our society. One reason is because I say they already have enough privileges. Due to they might take advantage of having to many privileges. Finally the privileges can be given to someone who needs them. Therefore I disagree that wealthy people receiving special privileges in our society. It was on Saturday morning during the summer. I was spending the summer in Wisconsin with my family. So on that Saturday morning my little cousin Johnetta and I were about to go camping. So while we were getting our bags ready I asked what if we see a snake. I only asked her that because I know she is afraid of snake. Finally she replied im going to run but hopefully we don?t see one. Later around 12:00pm our camp bus arrived. While we were on the bus I kept teasing her about the snakes. Before you know it we had made it to the camp station thing. There was a sign that read watch out for snakes. Then we started to put our tints up so since my cousin and me shared tints I make her put our tint. While she was putting the tint up I had took a fake stuffed snake out of my bag and put it next to her for she can freak out. Once she noticed it was by her she started running crazy. Then she ended up noticing that I put the fake snake there. Approximately 45 minutes later once every body got done putting there tints up we went for a hike. So while everyone was admiring stuff I went over to my cousin were she was admiring a ladybug on a flower and screamed snake in her ear. She had jumped back and ran toward our camp group faster than a blink of an eye. Once again she noticed I was just fooling around with her. So I decided that I wasn?t going to scare her no more in till later. Now it was around 2:30 pm we had all decided we were ready to eat lunch. We had ate lunch and played around and was ready to start back hiking. Finally I had felt like playing only one more trick on my cousin. While we were walking throw the trees there was a log that kind of looked like a snake. As I was walking along the side of her I whispered to her there is a snake over to the right of you so be careful. But as I looked at it began to move. So I had screamed snake. Then everyone just replied yeah yeah yeah just forget about trying to scare her. I had tried to convince everyone that it was a real snake but they just didn?t believe me. Finally we had made it back to are camp. Then I heard someone telling someone about how I kept playing tricks on my cousin. So then I tired to tell everyone that it was a real snake again. But they still didn?t believe me so I gave up. (more...)

1)Bob was in trouble. He forgot his wedding anniversary. His wife was really pissed. She told him "Tomorrow morning, I expect to find a gift in the driveway that goes from 0 to 200 in 6 seconds AND IT BETTER BE THERE !!" The next morning he got up early and left for work. When his wife woke up, she looked out the window and sure enough there was a box gift-wrapped in the middle of the driveway. Confused, the wife put on her robe and ran out to the driveway, brought the box back in the house. She opened it and found a brand new bathroom scale. Bob has been missing since Friday. 2) If you think life is bad. How would you like to be an egg? * You only get laid once. * You only get eaten once. * It takes 4 minutes to get hard. Only 2 minutes to get soft. * You share your box with 11 other guys. * You get poked around by soldiers * But worst of all.... The only chick that ever sat on your face was your mother. So cheer up.....Your life ain't that bad!!! 3) One day in the forest, 3 guys were just hiking along a trail when all of a sudden, a huge pack of indians attaked them and knocked them out. When they woke up, they were at the leader of the tribe's throne. The chief then said "All of your lives may be spared if you can find ten of one fruit and bring them back to me." So after a while the first man returned with 10 apples. The cheif then ordered him to stick all ten of them up his butt without making any expression at all on his face. He had a little bit of trouble with the first one and started crying while trying to put the next one in. He was soon killed. Later, the next guy came in with 10 grapes. The cheif soon ordered him to do the same as the first guy. After to the 9th grape, the man started laughing so hard for no apperant reason, and was killed. The first two guys soon met in heaven and the first guy ask the second, "Why did you start laughing? You only needed one more grape and you'd have gotten away!" The second guy answered while still laughing, "I couldn't help it. I saw the third guy walking in with pineapples." (more...)

My best friend and I share a complicated story with our exes. She and I were left while pregnant and both "dads" have taken a hike... The only good thing about this is that we help each other out for our children are about the same age. Her ex wasn't much involved during the pregnancy. He wasn't of much help but he claimed to want to be in her son's life so she allowed him to be around after the baby was born. He started visiting and for about a month he bought some stuff for the baby but he didn't provide with any other support. For a second it seemed as if they were getting along enough to rekindle their relationship but he was still skittish about it. After a little jerking around from him with regards to the support they ended up getting on a fight and she lost her cool and slapped him. He was livid but he didn't slap her back nor did he file for charges. After the fight he contacted her once and he stated that he presumably wanted to still be in the baby's life which she agreed to. She never heard from him again. She feels horrible and wants to talk to him. It's been over three months since the fight. I'm not sure what to advice since I don't know if talking to him would make any difference about how he feels about the whole situation, her and the baby. Sometimes I feel he's still playing with her feelings and others that he simply doesn't care. Do you think this relationship can be savaged? Do you think it is possible to come back from leaving her pregnant to slap to not taking care of the child to relationship again? I tell her to focus on the child and the fact that he's not taking care of him, but she still loves him. Is it possible he's still manipulating her because he knows this? Can he regret what he's done to her and realize that she reacted like that as a result of his doing? Btw, I know she did wrong about loosing her temper, but is what she did worse than what he did or vice versa? Is time being separate enough to make them both realize that this relationship can work or is it too messed up that is beyond repair? I feel for her because I know how hard it is to be the one that had the feelings yet left behind with a child... help please (more...)

Okay. Here's the scenario: A 19-year-old pilot has a very active and fun lifestyle. Lots of flying & flight training(she's till working on ratings), as well as canoeing, camping, hiking, biking,etc. She's constantly traveling from place to place, staying with friends and relatives(who have dogs, cats, and kids), as well as checking out the dog-friendly towns, parks, shops and restaurants all along the way. She has a lifetime of solid dog experience and currently shares her life with a Labrador already . . . She is seeking a VERY small dog, the smaller the better, as small as possible while still being resilient enough to handle the rigors of her every day life. She wants a dog that will go with her everywhere, so temperament is key. This dog will be riding along on all of her flights in small-planes, as well as her commercial flight trips, so she needs a dog who will be small enough to fit in a carrier small enough to safely meet the requirements for carry-on . . . which is sometimes no taller than 8"! Can't be a "flat-faced breed" because of the difficulties they have with breathing/flight. She doesn't mind grooming(in fact, she loves it) so a "high maintenance breed wouldn't be a problem. She also doesn't mind getting all of thosethings especially for small dogs to keep them safe . . . life jackets, bike baskets, dog purses, etc. Can you recommend MY perfect itty bitty match?
