Etiquette - October 2006

I really am at a loss. I moved in with my cousin Jessica who is 19 and she doesnt seem to care about being nude or semi nude in front of me. We are 1st cousins. She is an attractive young lady but very immature. I am dealing with her habits right now as we moved into an apartment together to save money. She is sweet but she often walks around in just her panties and bra and a few times she has walked into the kitchen with nothing but a thong on. She doesnt mind being nude in front of me. I told her I have weird feelings when she does that and she told me to " get over it ". She says that its natural to be unclothed at home and she knows I am not a pervert or looking at her in that kind of way. Well, I have to admit its very difficult to watch television when she has nothing but a thong on or when she bends over and her bare butt is sticking out in front of me. Its very distracting and I cant help but notice and feel guilty and shameful but I dont want to kick her out or move out either

At my office we all contribute chocolate and candy into a communual jar, except for one person who tends to be the biggest consumer. He works late shift and eats the candy as his evening meal. In the year I have worked he has not contributed once, and is openly proud of his miser ways. How should I deal with this stingy freeloader who is unappreciative of what others have the courtesy to provide?

Have you ever come across obnoxious guys who have no idea why they are still single for more than 5 years, when the answer is right under their nose? They think they understand women or pretend to be some psychologists but really, they don't!

I was offered a job as a general clerk in an advertisement inside the newspaper.I went for an interview for the first day and thankfully i've got a call the next morning for a second interview and the manager congrats me saying that i've got the job but suddenly he ask me to follow this young lady for job training.She ask me to ride in her car along with other 2 trainees and told us that all that we had to do is just helping with holding some stuffs when we get somewhere around the town and just watch what she's doing as part of the training.Then i realize that the job they gave to us is actually not as a general clerk but it's actually a direct selling lessons because we were thought to sell these items with the company's name on it..All i had to do is run away silently and the lady with the other trainees not even aware of it.I ride a cab home safely.The company have been trying to contact me for a few days but i just ignore them.So,did any of you had these same experience?

When I walk down the halls in any given building, at any given workplace, I notice some people stare at me from a distance. Once we get within a normal speaking range, since a person is blatenly staring at me, I'll say hello, and then they either look away or look down. What is the deal with that??

I will be going to an Indian wedding soon and I choose to wear a Sari even though I am not Indian to show my respect for the culture and not to mention Saris are beautiful and far more individual then western womens clothes! But, I dont know the appropriate color or drape for my Sari, and I dont want to show up the bride. Any thoughts?

Do you let the man pay the whole bill on a date, let him open doors and move chairs for you, yet whine about equality? How come so many feminists want equality yet when it comes to those they do a back flip. Equality would mean paying half the bill.

Gotta take the good with the bad, ladies.

I have a big crush on a guy I met from his place of buisness. I go to the shop he works in quite frequently. It is just him and the lady who owns it there and they are very close. I have her buisness card and it has an email address on it. I want to know how to word an email to her asking if he is single. I don't want to weird her out and I wish to keep my identity hidden in fear that I will not be able to go back in the shop because of embarrsment and akwardness. How do I word this email? Serious answers only please. Thanks!

Is it proper etiquette for someone to blow their nose at the table, during a meal? I have a friend who has severe allergies, so her nose is always draining. She never hesitates to blow her nose while we are having a meal. She will say "excuse me", before she blows. I am hesitant to say something because I know she has this chronic problem. Growing up, I was taught to exuse myself from the table and go blow privately. What do you think?

I have a co-worker I highly dislike, so there is no way I can avoid her. Sometimes we just have to talk. What, in your opinion, is the best way to act with people who highly annoy you, without being rude or putting your job in jeopardy?

I used to have a web log, and recently, someone who stabbed me in the back earlier this year, had her friends place really sick insults and threats on my blog. By doing that, it confirmed that she stole or copied private info of myself and family (buisiness wise) I can handle a lot, no whimp what so ever, believe me, but just to beat the S**t out of her, is not the way of handling this, as she would have that against me, I want the truth out of her, but what's the best way of achieving that. I want to keep my cool, and make her look like the person she is, and make her apologize in public! (threats of hurting my animals, etc!) I know the comments came from her friends as they didn't hide that. It's really hard to control myself, and yes I did go to the police etc. but it keeps on knawing in my mind! HELP

Spent an afternoon at the beach with my female friend and her best friend, also female (my girlfriend couldnt make it with us). After a hour I went to the bathroom. About 30mins later after playing frisbie and hanging out, I noticed the velcro holding my fly shut on my boardshorts was clogged with sand and never closed after my bathroom visit. It was totally open! My johnson was completely visable and partly hanging out. No one said anything but it was so obvious.

Did my female friends just not want to say something? If you saw that would you say something? Would a man's member accidently hanging out his shorts offend you?
