A woman in my department uses what I would call “baby-talk”. She’s 43, never had a date – I suppose she wants to be the Mother of the office.

She is an OK employee (lots of drama at home) but when she speaks to me (dept. admin) she says things like, “Precious, I have to go downstairs...” “Pretty lady, I have to call...”, “Boo, I want to tell you...”, “Good morning Precious! What a pretty blouse for the Pretty Lady!” And when she comments on the picture of my granddaughter she speaks in a lispy, fake, even worse baby voice. GAG!!!! She is not gay and wants a boyfriend in the worst way. She is overly emotional and all attempts to speak with her about issues elicits a huge passive-aggressive attitude and she feels very wronged by the world. She just cannot speak to me and others without the baby-talk. What to do?

After yet another late night at the pub, I meandered home through the first snow of the season. Upon reaching the doorway I felt the call of nature and had the idea of writing my name in the snow. Waking in the morning I went outside to take in the morning air while enjoying a cup of Irish coffee. Having glanced down, I saw my name in the snow and thought; Hey, that's not my hand writing?

In general I have a high pain tolerance (I can get my finger caught in a door, stub my toe so hard that it bleeds, or hit my head really hard without even wincing), but when someone touches my shoulder it HURTS and I feel this wave of irrational irritation. Why are my shoulders so sensitive?

(I have some chronic pain too, but I was wondering about this in particular.)

A machine produces open boxes using square sheets of metal. The machine cuts equal sized squares measuring 3 inches on a side from corners and then shapes the metal into an open box by turning up the sides. If each box must have a volume of 75 cubic inches, find the length and width of the open box

I know this is an odd question, but I just wanted to see what people thought. Do you believe that there is true love where you love that person more than anything in the world and just want to be with them? Do you think it's possible to have true love like in the movies and stories?

I don't think, I know that I have found someone that I really would like to move in a forward motion with in all aspects of my life. We ran into a snag, where emotions were starting to get involved. He scared me & we both took a step back, then briefly talked & thought to try to be FWB. This also did not come to play. Now, it's been almost 2 wks & we haven't spoken other than a couple of text msgs a week ago. I care, but I don't want to be selfish & ask "what or why?" I don't know how to approach him if at all... I want my character to stand out to him again as it did in the beginning. He is a pyschologist & so he will analyze every detail of this & form an opinion. He is a truly amazing man who I can relate to like none other. I need some advice on how to handle this without losing a great friend in the process. How do I approach this to see if we still have a chance or if it is over for good?

I've been with my boyfriend for four years. We've planned for the future, and he's even mentioned a wedding date he would like. Problem is, whenever I bring up marriage (which is rare), he gets irritated. We were at a wedding last weekend and I caught the bouquet, only to have it ripped out of my hands by another girl. When I looked over at my boyfriend, he looked relieved that it was taken from me. He mentioned later that his heart stopped when he saw me catch it.
Just when I lose hope, he'll say something that makes me wonder. In the car on the way back from the wedding, he asked me what type of wedding dress I wanted for our wedding. When I mentioned that I've never about it, he told me I should start looking. Then said he wanted to help plan it. He called me his spouse recently, and when I corrected him he said that I might as well be.

How do I talk to him about it? I know that he 's serious about our relationship, but I need to know if it's ever going to happen.

They are pricey & high end. HELP ME! It will be located on a well-known street in Southern California. It has to be catchy and cute. I don't want anything long. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!

I live in Fort Myers, Florida, and according to Yellowpages.com, there's only one soup kitchen in the entire area (there isn't even another one as far as Naples, which is almost an hour away). I really want to volunteer in some way on Thanksgiving, but the soup kitchen already has more than enough volunteers, and they basically "denied" my offer to help out. Can you think of any other options? I'm a teenager and my parents are away on business, so I kind of have nothing to do, and I would rather do some charity work than have an awkward dinner with one of my friends' entire extended family.
