| | TasteofIndia's profile:TasteofIndia here. I'm 23 years old, I've been Dear Cupid-ing for like, 3-4 years. It's addictive. I'm based in upstate NY and just got married to a Marine. He's the only hippie in the Marines, but that gives him character. He is awesome. Despite popular belief, I'm not Indian, I just really liked that song by Aerosmith when I first made this account. I'm not even an Aerosmith fan, really, but I really liked that song. I am biracial though, so I've got a little funk.
I'm a theater junkie, with an awesome family. I have a dog who is mostly nice, but has a little attitude problem. I love Dear Abby, Ann Landers, all that jazz... when I found this website how could I resist?? (Couldn't.) I love Dear Cupid, love being a moderator and love giving advice when I can!!
Things I like: llamas, broccoli, my feisty puppy, Skip Bo, theater, earrings, positivity, sleeping, writing, Cesar Milan, sitcoms, sweatpants, lingerie. |

A. 18 November 2009: You know, I did this for a little while and it was a BLAST. It lets you embrace that sexual power, and learn how to use it. You feel like a fox and it's a major confidence booster. And no, you don't look at the crowd of guys like, "hmmm, which one ... (read in full...)
Is a Christmas gift a sign to a girl that things are starting to get more serious?

A. 18 November 2009: Personally, if you've been dating 3 months and you're sleeping together (or even if you weren't), a little gift would be nice for Christmas. But it really depends on what the gift is to say whether or not it reads "serious relationship" or not. ... (read in full...)

A. 14 November 2009: I agree with 'anon'. This is mostly just part of being young, being 14 and exploring both yourself, and relationships. I don't think you're frigid at ALL!! And always listen to your body, sometimes it knows better than your mind. Both parts of you ... (read in full...)

Why do we watch our loved ones sleep?
Q. What do you think is the reason why people will watch their loved one sleep? I think it's sweet, but I was wondering why they do that?...
A. 13 November 2009: It's a very intimate time with someone. In my lifetime, hardly anyone has (sweetly) watched me sleep (oh God, at least to my knowledge they haven't). Maybe your parents while you're a baby... but otherwise, only those who are very close to you get ... (read in full...)

A. 10 November 2009: I agree with quiet-echo. Just put it out there, so that there can't be any misunderstandings. Be clear and be firm - and if he's a nice guy, a gentleman, a class act - he'll be totally okay with it. And if he gives you any attitude... well, then you ... (read in full...)
