A guy friend of mine just moved (maybe 2-3 months ago) to this new country and he's in our school now. I try to be nice to him,he's my friend, but he just won't stop talking about how much he misses all his friends back in Australia, showed me a pic of his ex in Australia, kids in Australia are soooo cool, Australia, Australia, Australia!
It's driving me nuts! He won't stop complaining about how "bad" it is here too, and having lived here a whie, it offends me.
What do I do?

we use to like eachother. and then he started ignoring me. he drinks (a lot). i have heard rumors he is a man-whore. he is just a lil odd. he sent me an email saying he's like to see me and hang out. should i just hang out with him, or just ignore him and go on with my life as i have. i am nice, and i do not want to be total meanie. i havent seen him in a year. i always make excuses to not see him... but he never really did anything bad to me. so complicated. i just wantto hear some opinions.

OK, we all want to put our best face forward. Fair enough (pun intended). But don't some people just mistake Yahoo for an adult dating service/ or a swinger's service? I mean, some of those photos are not just accidentally 'very attractive' - but are very obviously the 'come hither' type (if you know what I mean). And I wouldn't be surprised if it was lifted off a centerfold etc.

OK, they'll probably be popular and get more answers - but deep down, are they really just looking for a date on Yahoo, or something like that?

Nothing heavy, party people in the place - just one of those things that make you go, 'hmmm'.

okay, i have been going out with this girl for a lil over a month now and about a week into our relationship she told me she still had feelings for her ex (who she went out with for 1yr till he cheated on her). They been apart for 4 months and now that she got a BF he wants her back. I told her straight up that she has to be ready to move on and we could just be friends till she is 100% ready. A couple days after she said she was going to make our relationship work and she was ready. 3 awesome weeks went by and today she asked me "why are u with me, Im not worth it"..because shes all confused again cause she talked to her ex today on msn. She says she cant block him because she finds herself adding him back. But then again her IM name is always something really sweet about me, n the people at her work keep telling me that she whines at work because she just wants to see me. She said today that every1 is telling her that her ex is changed. What should I do? I really want to be wit her.

Okay well I have this guy-friend, which used to be my crush, that likes me, alot, and we're both not allowed to have BFs and GFs. He wants to become FRIENDS OF BENIFITS with me [not having sex, just kissing, making out, and french kissing]. But the problem is, I don't like him that much anymore. On a scale from 1-10 on how I still like him, its prob. a 4-5. Does anyone have suggestions on either how to tell him I don't like him anymore, or how to say no to the FRIENDS OF BENIFITS without hurting his feelings???

I have been talking with my parents about who we are going to continue caring for my adult(27 years old) autistic brother. I am currently 23 and I want my brother to come live with me because my parents are getting older. The problem is that we cannot agree on the best way to continue caring for my brother (living with me, my parents, assisted living group home etc.). I was wondering what other people have done who are in a similar situation. The real worry with my brother is what do we do in the future. How can we ensure that my brother will always be cared for?

My fiance & I have had a great rltnship. This summer I plugged in a pw common to us in her email & it worked & I went thru it a couple of times I think out of curiosity but this has never hppnd before. Later on that month, she was supposed to come visit but was acting distant. I asked her about this & she told me that she was not feeling well. I then looked at her email & found that she had been contctd by an old guy friend that day & was encouraging him to come visit as he was driving thru her town. I felt she was hiding this as she has never hidden any 'guy contct' before. I didn't confront her directly (afraid of my breach of trust), pushed for her to tell me but nothing. I trusted, put this aside & she came & we bought wedding stuff. She changed her pw right after making me believe that she knew what had gone on but never confronted me. We are now seprated as she says she has trust/conflict avdnce issues she is working on. Should I tell her what I did, found & when: now/later/never

He says that he loves me, and I believe him. I love him very much also. He isn't pressuring me about having sex, but he is beginning to ask more and more. And I dont want seem like I'm scared or anything, but I am. I know that I wont lose him over this, but the main problem is that I really want 2, I'm just afraid of the results.

it started out as we were both very interested in each other and we messed around a lot. however i started dating someone else....well fast forward one year and i tell him i'm single again and he goes back to start trying to get with me again. the thought just makes me sick as i'm not interested in him at all that way anymore. but he was always a good friend..how can i let him know without him getting upset and not talking to me anymore? i'm tired of him hitting on me but i loved him as a friend.

There is someone that works out at my gym that I think I might be interested in. I've caught him staring at me a couple of times. The only problem is I'm kind of shy around guys so I really don't know what to do.

I've date my boyfriend for fours years with two 3 week separations. We have a good relationship, and we're both good people, but we're young. I am 21 and he is 20, recently we had been arguing and in the effort to resolve it he said he might need some time. So if I am 100% in love with this man how long do I wait for him to decide he is 100% in love with me or not and I am his one? I will be devastated if I am not the one...and how can I cope with this hurt if I am not?

My husband and I married almost 3 months ago. He's changing day to day. When we got married he became more controlling. Not jealous or following me or anything like that but, definitely more controlling. He told me numerous times before we got married that he was going to stop smoking (pot) and even tried and did. Now that we are married he does it all of the time and I asked him why he tried to stop b4 we got married and now he smokes all the time and doesn't care how it makes me feel, he told me now we are married and I can c the true him. Also, he won't take responsibility for anything he does wrong, it is always my fault. Also, I can come home from work and if he feels like being touched or talked to then I can touch or talk to him but, if not and I try to he gets mean about me leaving him alone. I'm a church girl and he used to hold the cuss words in front of me. Now, he just lets them fly and even calls me whore and tells me to shut the f*c* up quite often. What is it?

My 12 year old step son was accused by my then 4 year old of telling her to touch his pee-pee. This all happened in Feb. of this year. Ever since I am hateful to him when he is around. My husband says it is done and over with, so we are not to talk about it. I am going to counseling and my step son is going. I don't know how to handle my emotions when he is around. I dread it when it is time for him to come and I thank God when he leaves. His dad acts like he is innocent about everything, even though it was our daughter that did the accusing. I have tried telling my husband how I feel and my step son knows I do NOT trust him. Please, someone tell me how to stop feeling this way. Or do I have every right to feel this way?

I told my close female friend that I needed time away from her to clear my head after she kept giving me undecisive answers if we'll go further than friends.She said if that's how I feel then she respects that and that maybe I do need time to sort my head out.(told her I don't know what to think\do anymore about her undecisiveness,am confused,need to clear my head).

The conversation ended on this note, with her saying:

She then said there are too many ppl in the world who are 2 faced and selfish,who don't value individuals like she does.Is hurt that OTHER ppl don't value ppl the way she does.MEANING???

Not spoken for 3 weeks now.(the longest ever!)What she thinking\feeling?Will she EVER speak to me again?What do I do now?

For xmas I sent her a xmas card and a small teddy(saying special friend)-just saying merry xmas and happy new year. I wrote a short message how special and unique she is+ how important the friendship is to me.

Who'd get 1st in touch again?

This guy I work with is 46 yrs old, he has a Myspace account and has a bunch of younger girls on it (19-22). Is this considered creepy?

He says he uses it for "networking" with other 46 yr olds, I don't buy it.

I've an Egyptian boyfriend (this might be intercul.misunderstanding).
I've to move out of my old flat and found the perfect flat two months ago but with a high provision and in the same building where he lives.So I forgot about the flat but couldn't find another good one.Now they lowered the provision for the flat and I asked him if it'd be ok if I looked at the flat.He said 'ok' so I saw the flat I love it.To make sure I asked him again about me moving in the same building and he said I should only take the apartment if I like it and NOT because he is living there and that he doesn't think he would have time during the week to meet more often (since we're together we spent every weekend together but he always asked me).
So, now I'm hurt and angry that he is so arrogant to think that I tried to find a flat to live close to him.But now he sent me an sms saying he is looking forward to going out together from 'our' apartment.
Should I move in? What does he really want?What shall I do?
