Or more accurately, does "barely legal" porn contribute to pedophilia, or is it just another deviation of human behavior to have something that can't be attained?

I know the answer to this question is unequivecally me! I know I'm the one that is holding myself back. I'm a bit concerned with feelings that my life is going no where fast. I'm 26, have a dead-end, but steady job. I haven't found another suitable job; definetely not for lack of trying! I make due with what I have but I am definetely cash strapped. I'm somewhat dissatisfied with my relationships; I feel that I haven't got back what I have put into them. I have an associates degree, but it doesn't seem to get me anywhere. I sincerely can't think of a career path that intrests me. I feel as if I have always done things just to say I do them. I just love life and people and I want to be a more active participant in life! What can I do?

It seems that my entire life revolves around my looks..like that's all I have control over and seem to care about..I'll never leave the house without my makeup (which usually takes hours to do) and I'm constantly perfecting this and that and then no matter what happens, or how many people tell me I'm beautiful I still feel ugly like the way I feel on the inside!! but I still obsess and try to change every little thing from hair color, eye color, etc, etc and I still hate the way I look..is this a problem or do I just have self-esteem issues??

Are you a good woman or a girl? What separates the woman from the girls? Is a woman some one who has a 35 000 plus car? Or a career that envied by most because she takes home more than most would make in a year? Or is woman some who is a university college educated person who smarts all stem from her knowledge of books? And girl is she some one who is doesn’t live to see her fullest potential? She doesn’t have that fancy car? Or works at the works mall as a sales associate? Or her knowledge comes from the enivoiment around her not the books she once looked at in school? So what is woman. In my definition of woman. Woman radiates confidence. A woman takes every challenge as a chance to succeed and to be stronger person every time. A woman doesn’t value or classes her self based on her salary or her car she drives. And yes she may have university or college education because she took everything the world told her she couldn’t do and did it. Her ambitious goal oriented and never stops short of what her full goals and dreams are to be. Now a girl and so many of know them. Don’t know what it mans to live for tomorrow, everything is for that moment and in that moment they have no clue what is going on. A girl doesn’t know what it means to be mature responsible take charge and see a challenge as something overcome. Rather they see a challenge an s road block they have no clue to pass. A girl has infinite time to get caught up. Follow others and never know what it means to be a leader. So here I’ve laid out my definition of what it means to be a woman. Now being a woman does not mean in age but this means in maturity in growth in who you are a person. So I ask you again are you Woman or a Girl?

I made a wish this year - not a resolution, but just a wish. I asked god if he could find me a wife.

The problem is, I'm unsure what a wife or a potential wife would want from me. I'm 45, a little overweight, a recovering alcoholic and have had lots of girlfriends in my life. I wanted to marry the last one, but I screwed it all up by drinking and cheating on her. I never want to go back there again.

I've never been married before, and find alot of women are looking for a second or third husband and think that there is something wrong with me.

I did start a multi-million dollar software company, which failed in 2003, but I'm trying again. (I started it in 1987 when i got sober the first time)

What do you think is wrong with this picture. Do you think I'd never find a wife? That's what I want most from life.

What can I do to make myself attractive enough so that some woman that I'm equally attracted to will marry me?

Instead of raising prices, many companies make their products smaller, so they can charge the same price for a smaller product. But that often means that you have to buy more of the product to get the same amount as before; so you're still spending more money for the same product. Does that count as inflation for the official inflation index? Or is it hidden inflation that isn't officially tallied?

I ask because it sure seems like things are getting more expensive, yet the official inflation index isn't particularly high.
