Etiquette - September 2006

has anyone noticed how there are more girls asking guys out than ever before? does it seem like you wont get a date if you dont act? i believe guys are getting accustomed to this and not asking girls because of it. i personaly dont like it and dont know what to do. just want your opinions

My fiance is from a large family and has lotsa little nieces. I think 6. I'm not close to any of them but love my sisters two. Is that rude if I don't ask any of them? Will they hate me!

Unfortunately, it was a long day and I think I used pork broth when I made them. Should I fully disclose the possiblity or just keep my mouth shut.

she is very helpful to me, but she spends 5 hours with me every day. i started washing my hair and clothes every day to wash away the smell of burnt tobaco : (

i don't want her to think i'm kicking her out or considering her a lower rank... she is so senstive...

Okay,

I'm not the tupe of person you come to if you have self esteem issues if you want an honest opinion about the way you look. I tell it the way i see it. If you ask "do i look fat in this?" and you DO. I will tell you yes.
I don't like it when people tell me I did a good job at something when i know I didn't at all. i think that positive support is a good thing, but be honest even then. Tell me it took guts to try or something. Don't sugarcoat it.
I think that honesty is a dying thing in this world and I'm trying to bring it back.

What do you think? Better to be Honest or to be Nice?

There are only 2 of us in our location. His job is to schedule order installs, deal with customer complaints, help sell items, and order shipment trucks. Since July he has been unable to get any of this done on time and tries to get me to help him do his job, and still manages to get truck orders in 1-2 weeks late. I handle all warranty, most of the sales, all literature mailing, all the secretary duties as well as most of the basic store cleaning, organizing and pricing duties. He is salary. Im hourly.
Lately he's been leaving early almost daily, at a point when what few calls hes made to schedule should be returning those calls to confirm. This has been going on since July. I thought once he had a week vacation in August it would get better. Its gotten worse. I have been recording the times he leaves early, takes multiple hour lunches, does family stuff on the clock etc. I feel like I should say something to the people above us but its going to be obvious it was me. What should I do

Since she had no one to go with I went. But B4 we left I asked her where her friend was registered so I can buy her a gift. Nothing fancy just a thank you for allowing a total stranger to attend. Well my best friend told me not to worry she'll put my name on the gift as if it were from both of us. I was okay with that and gave her half the money for the gift. When the bride is opening up her gift she reads who it's from and only says my friends name. I'm sure she didn't write it or she would have said it. Should I be upset or just let it slide since she is my best friend? I just felt kinda bad I went pretty much empty-handed.

A recent survey commisioned by the Institute of Obesity in Paris concluded that fatties like to fly more than most people because they can fill their faces with donuts and suchlike whilst abroad- thus keeping their anonymity.

I dont mind this but I resent having to sit next to them on a plane in this current climate of fearful flying?

I dont mind gay people though as they are always willing to advise on Feng Shui. Any advice for dealing with my fears?

She called him and asked to meet alone..not just for sex but to be "involved" as in b/f. Was also willing to sneak around if I didn't agree. How should I have handled it to keep us in the lifestyle. My man opted out of the lifestyle because of this. I trusted him but he wasn't aware how far she was going to try take this so he agreed to meet her for sex....I am willing to share him not lend him to someone to date. Am I wrong in this?

I'll be attending a wedding (which probably shouldn't be happening) for a family member soon. Both he and his bride are recovering from alcohol and drug abuse. Not even sober for 3 months yet.

Anyway, I don't want to give them cash or even gift cards (which could be sold to other people for cash, something they've done a lot of). They aren't registered anywhere, they both have had houses of their own in the past so they have a lot of housewares.

Any ideas that don't involve items that are easily cashed in?

My boss and his wife are having a cookout to celebrate a coworker's upcoming wedding. There will be a total of 4 couples there. I am in no way close to any of these people but feel like I am obligated to go because of work and the small number of guests. Do I have to get the engaged couple a gift? I don't really want to. Also, should I bring a hostess gift? I have been told I don't need to bring anything but I took that to mean food or whatnot. Tell me what you would do.

Do you think guys sit around and ask if their sperm is ready for ejaculation? Hey bob do you think I can hit her overary with this half load? It almost appears if most women are sitting at home skirt up head burried looking at their insides. Is this what is happening?

A girl from Church had a baby about 3 months ago and I sent her a card with a $30 gift card to Babies R Us in the mail. She has never mentioned it or sent a thank you card, so I'm beginning to think maybe she didn't get it. (I know...gift cards are like sending cash...I should have hand delivered it). If I ask her, she might think I'm rude by expecting a thank you card, (Which I really don't care...new moms are busy!). If she didn't get it, I want to get her something else. I don't know what the polite thing to do is.
