Morning breath is also horrible and disgusting but we take care of it by brushing and gargling, right? Smokers must not understand how horrible their breath smells after they just finished a cigarette. Why can't all smokers be forced to carry mints and not subject others to their horrible breath?

We were together for almost a year, our breakup was horrible and very emotional. I also told him that I do not ever want to see him at places that I attend. He also cheated on me thinking that I would not ever find out.

I have been living in my home in CA for 1 year and we have been constantly fighting with our neighbers (who are renters) next door. The issue started because they were throwing their leaves on our side of the property and since then they have not left us alone. They are constantly harrasing us and taking pictures whenever we just doing our own business. They are always snooping and trying to listen to our conversations on the other side of the fence. They keep complaining to the city making false acussations about us and trying to get us fined for stupid things. I am totally sick of these people and just want them to go away. Moving is not an option. I have tried making peace but they are such psychos and hold these dumb grudges. PLEASE I AM OPEN TO ANY ADVICE THAT CAN HELP US!!!

im in my 20's and live with 2 other guys in an apartment...recently my buddy moved in and last night he told me it bothers him that i leave the toilet seat up.....
In my opinion when living with 3 guys this should be a non issue.....if i wanted to get nagged about this i would live with a girl....which is what i think he's acting like.....Has anyone else ever had this happen? or is this guy...the biggest "girl" you've ever heard of?

If you think you are better than others and won't budge an inch because you are the better and more powerful.

Guys are always attracted by some small (or big) detail in you women and we want to get to know you girls but often we make a bad impression. to you girls, what is the best way to approach you? at times it seems that we are only scaring you away, or that we're only looking at getting laid. us males might want to get ur # at times, but how can we avoid women to turn around and walk away?

It seems most servers seem to address customers as "guys" such as, "Hi guys", "What can I get you guys"? This happens if the customers are young people or women or couples up into their sixties. Is there a better way to address customers, for example, a group of men, a goup of women or how to address a mixed group?

Also, how do I explain it to my 5 1/2 yr who just lost his great grandmom? He is friends with the baby's big sister. He was very upset about losing his mom mom. I explained to him that sometimes when people get very old they get sick and their bodies wear out. I let him know that most people live to be very very old and that his mom mom is now our very own special angel. I don't want him to be afraid his little sister or any of us is going to go to heaven.

yesterday while I was at work a female co-worker came to me to voice her disappointment in our manager, she began to tear and excused herself for a brief moment, I assured her if she needed help to let me know, I then went and got her some water, a small snack and some tissues, after that she completly avoided me for the rest of the day, did I do something wrong with my actions?

A co-worker of mine got a new car on Tuesday May 15 but she could not drive the car off the lot until it was insured so that Wednesday she came to work all stressed out because she was a $100 short of what she had to pay to the insurance company for her deductible. She know that I have money saved up for when I move next month so I offered to give her $100 because I know that Friday May 18 we get paid. She didn't come to work that Friday nor Monday, but when she came to work that Tuesday May 22 she sent me a message through an IM stating that something came up and could she pay my the next payday which is another two weeks June 1. Am I wrong for wanting my money now even though it's just going to be sitting in my bank. I what my money now because I gave her the money under the agreement that I will get it back on that payday not the next. How should I handle this situation should I wait another whole two week?

You know the situation, you have a friend who is going to the store and they ask you if you want anything from the store. Do we assume that they are offering to buy an item for you?
How about this related scenario. You are meeting a possible business associate at a coffee shop. You have been waiting about 15 minutes. The person arrives, apologizes for being a bit late, then states that he is going to the counter to get a coffee. He asks you if you want anything. Do you assume that he is offering to pay?

so my fiance and i have a lot of family reunions/visits coming up. our families are christian, but relatively liberal. so here is my question--when we goto visit the homes of our family members, should we expect/request to sleep in the same bed, or separately? We have had a child together (though we recently lost the baby), so everyone knows we have had sex before. What is appropriate? And, if we do sleep together...is it disrespectful to have sex in the guest bedroom (some of the stays will be extended)?
