Family & Relationships - 18 October 2007

i am a seventeen year old girl.. who have a male bestfriend @ my age. he was sexually abused by a man from the internet from the age of 12-15. he told me and our other bestfriend this autumn. we tried dialing helping numers (dont know the english word for it, im from europe) and we arranged a meeting with a psychologist for him. but he backed out. we have tried to make him tell what happened to him to his parents, but he refuses to do so. he cuts himself and is concidering suicide. he is also very depressed. our other bestfriend tells me we should go directly to his parents and tell them everything, but i'm not sure that's the right thing to do...? what do you guys think we should do

She never answers the damn thing. It's always buried deep down in her purse. When I need to talk to her, I call and then wait a half hour for her to call me back...very annoying. What should I do?

Like when you're in the gym or wherever and you notice some guy who keeps looking over at where you are?

He gave me a kiss on the cheek and I kissed him back on the cheek but I want to give him a better kiss. I really only get to see him at school and he is always with one of his friends. And if we do go out on the weekend, my is already their to pick us up so i can't do anything. Should i just kiss him in front of his friends?

I had this urge to see myself bald and so I got my head shaved yesterday.Since then I am being teased by people around me.

Was wondering why?

Do you also tease when someone in your family or friends get their head's shaved?or do you support him for doing so?

Since I've seen questions asking for horror stories, I figured I'd ask for positive ones.
Did you take advantage of the "Bridal Rewards" program, what did you think? and if you dealt with a store in NJ or PA, could you mention the town the store was in (I'm in that area).
I dropped into one last night and picked up the books of dresses and was happy with what I saw and it looks like their dresses are comparably priced to what I've seen online that I like.

Go to this website: http://www.familywatchdog.us/
Type in your address, then at the top of the map it will list how many if found. Put that number in as your answer.
Also, do you think that's a lot for your area?

Me: 39. I live in a small to medium town. With the scale the map starts at it's not very many. (It's 39 too many, but it could be worse)

Have you noticed that as a general rule of thumb......women will meet a man and then spend an entire lifetime trying to change him, mold him, scold him, and push him towards reaching his true potential? While men on the other hand seem to want nothing more than for women to go back to being exactly how they were when they first started dating, and to never ever change?

My old boyfriend and I e-mail each other a few times each week. We are now both married to other people, but neither of our spouses know that we are in contact. The content of our e-mail is platonic, nothing sexual. Is this ok, or do we need to stop? We haven't told our spouses about this because they are both very jealous people.

My child has always found it difficult to fall asleep, even when still a baby. Once asleep - no problems, but put her to bed at 7 or 8 and she's still chatting to herself or singing till 9pm or so. It wouldn't be a problem but she is still tired during the day and I'm sure it's affecting her learning at school, not to mention her mood.

We have had a bedtime routine all her life, including story in bed and cuddle time. It's not an unwillingness to go to bed, just seems to take her such a long time to fall asleep. Her father is also a bit of an insomniac.

Does anyone have any sensible and realistic suggestions?

Who did you typically agree with most, or when you got into trouble, which person was most often on your side or more lenient with you?

With me, it is my mom all the way, but my dad and I have a decent relationship (we used to not have on before).

Ive found a travel agent that is sympathetic to my dietary needs. YEAH! Now were having a hard time deciding where to go (our anniversary is in march)

An all inclusive cruise to a warmer climate: mexico, south america, bahamas.

A BEAUTIFUL B&B about 2 hours from where were going to be living, but they want $295-$350 a night.

Hubby has mentioned he would be more in favor of staying of staying closer to home because of our children. I want to go on the cruise because it's something different, and we don't have to pay extra for our food, plus we would be paying more if we stayed at the B&B. My brother and his wife are going to take care of the kids. So we know they will be well taken care of. What should we do?

Opinions are greatly appreciated.
