I just had my hair cut and I HATE IT!!!

Q.   Well... This probably will seem like a really dumb problem.. but I need help. It's not really a relationship question either, but I hope you can help anyways. About a week ago, I went and got a haircut, before I went in, my hair was down past my...

A.   29 November 2008: That is my life story! I grow out my hair for years and then go for a trim thinking it will just take the dead ends off and I can't even keep track of how many butcher jobs I've had. I have very curly hair and getting the right cut seems near imp... (read in full...)

A.   29 November 2008: Perhaps your relationship was never tested before you became ill and you never really got to see her true character? This is typical co-dependent behavior on her part. A child forever. I feel so bad for you that in your heart she was The One and ... (read in full...)

Is is all right I have a teacher's myspace?

Q.   Right, my question is: Is it all right that I have a teacher's myspace? The thing is he's not my actual teacher, I only got to know him during cross country last year (he was one of the teachers that ran the club) and I thought he was fun and cool...

A.   29 November 2008: In my experience with men, most aren't interested to understand us the way we have a need to be understood. Its a drain on them and they are more rational minded. Men seem to just want to feel emotion without complication. Its sad when you want... (read in full...)

How do I fix a relationship I screwed up?

Q.   I have been with my gf for about 3 years and I believe I have screwed up in that I grew complacent and began treating the relationship like a friendship and not a boyfriend/girlfriend thing. This is my first relationship of any kind and I really a...
