My ex g/f came back into my life and brought alot of mental and physical problems (she got pregnant) along with her. Well I forgave her and when she didn't want the baby anyone (ab) I forgave her also.

How could she tell me that she loves ME forever and is looking forward to having my babies and a happy life and not even 8 hours later I call her dad worried b/c i haven't heard anything from her that morning and he said she never came home?

Was she ever going to tell me or just play me along with other people?

Why did she tell me that she loves me even when she was in the other persons house?

What was she trying to accomplish? A final fairwell before she came back to me? Why didn't she do that a month ago when she called me?

ALSO, why did she get so upset at me when she left ME and I slept with another woman? She is the one who left, got preg, got ab, not me.

Please help me answer as many of these questions. Last time I talked to her she would only say "I don't know"

What do you think of this article?

"A 20-year-old woman reported being raped by the bouncer outside a bar in Cincinnati. A disabled woman in Everett, Wash., says she was raped in her home by a man she knew, while her young children slept nearby. In Washington, D.C., police say a woman was forced to withdraw money for the assailant after he raped her. A man was arrested in Cheyenne, Wyo., for raping and murdering a woman. Chicago police say a 25-year-old woman was stabbed and strangled in a "domestic dispute."

And that was just yesterday..."

How can we have a middle class without oil? Someone told me that in countries with high gas prices, there's no middle class. There's just the rich and the poor. I don't know if I agree with that, so here's my real question: When Earth runs out of oil, how can we continue to have a middle class?

i know that trade deficit when imports are higher than exports. But since the economy of other nations is growing faster than the US, importing would create inflation in the US. So is would exporting would be good? im a little confused

I am so annoyed with people constantly saying "I hate life! My family don't care! I have no friends! Bla Bla Bla!"
So you think your family don't care about you? Have you been kicked out of your house? Are you being starved? No? Then they care!
You have no friends? Does everyone you ever meet despise you? Do you go to a cafe in a random place and the waitress/waitor despises you? Are they nice to you? Yes? Then you have friends.
Would you rather be in a hole in Iraq, waiting for your time to be bombed or shot down? Constantly living in fear?
Would you rather be a mother knowing your son is dead? Knowing that all the time you and him have shared is all gone?
Then you shouldn't hate life. You're lucky.

What do you think?

I dream that I'm wondering around lost in France but for some reason i don't care that I'm lost. Sometimes i dream that I'm buying myself thing like clothes of jewelery. (despite the fact the I'm not very interested in those things in reality-i like to look good, but not spend too much money on myself)

This dream happens quite a lot.

I have actually been to France a few times, but never got lost. (i live in England)

Why do i have this dream, and what do you think it means?

some 'misandrists' and radical fringe members that the entire movement is suddenly worthless or 'hypocritical'? From our friendly neighborhood 'non-' and anti-feminists:


Q: Isn't labeling anti-feminists part of the patriarchy a stereotype?

A: … Feminism is an honorable movement, and deserves much credit for the lives that women are free to live today. But as with everything else, it is generally not the movement itself that becomes corrupt or misguided, it is its 'followers' - the feminists. (And, of course, I am generalizing here...as I do not believe that ALL feminists are corrupt or misguided...but plenty are!)

I am, therefore, anti-feminist for the most part, not anti-feminism. …


Do anti-feminists actually think that the fact that a few of the movement’s 'followers' become 'corrupt or misguided' is somehow reason to discredit the movement itself? Apparently there are not plenty of radical crazies in the world religions.

My father was always in and out of my life (mostly out). He only visited when it suited him and then would disappear for years at a time. At age 18, I got involved with a man with whom I had a child, who turned out to be just like him. I went downhill and began to lead an irresponsible life whereby I didnt take care of myself emotionally or physically. I let men take advantage of me. Then,12 years after having my first child, I changed. I grew up. I started to love myself a little. I stopped living the kind of life I had been. Then I met a man who I thought was different. He had all the qualities that I had dreamed of (or so I thought). By now I was 32 and really wanted another baby. We were both happy when I became pregnant. To cut a long story short, he has turned out just like the other 2 major men in my life. He is irresponsible and unpredictable. He has never spent time with us as a family and he is in total denial. I realise what I have done: picked a man like my father... again.
