  • I think that a guy friend is mad at me... how should i work this out?

    Friends - 5 hours ago

    Additional Details

    Okay, i admit that this was completely my fault. i looked through his stuff and asked him a question about an awkward item that was in it... I have no idea what got into me at that time and i DO feel sorta guilty. I didn't embarrass him in front of his friends or anything so i don't think that he is THAT mad. so then later that day, he sent me a message saying "i really don't like it when ppl look through my stuff without my permission". and so i text him backing saying that i was sorry and that i didn't think that he would be that bothered with it. and he didn't reply so i sent him another message asking for forgiveness and he STILL didn't reply... So i sent another, apologizing again and promising not to do it again. And now, after three messages, I think i should stop texting him because it seems as if he really wants to ignore me and annoying him is not going to work. And since i see him every friday, saturday and sunday, and we hang out, i rly want to work this out as we are friends and our friendship means a lot to me and also don't want the awkwardness... It doesn't seem like him to hold a grudge for such a long time so I'm worried... what should i do now? ps: i didn't take anything and sry for the lengthiness... and i know that it was my fault and that i shouldn't have done it so i really don't need a lecture on how mean i was... :( well for a 15 yr old guy, i'd assume plastic mcdonalds toys are embarrasing items to be found in your bag... but im pretty sure he bullied some poor young kid or smth.

  • How can I be a less jealous boyfriend?

    Singles & Dating - 8 hours ago

    Additional Details

    When my girlfriend and I are out in groups, I get really jealous when she talks to other guys more than me. I don't think she will ever cheat on me, but I still get depressed and withdrawn or passive aggressive towards her when she does it. It is causing problems and if it continues she will probably break up with me. I do trust her and know she is just being social, but I can't control how it makes me feel. Lack of confidence in myself is the reason, I suppose. But how to rise above it?

Bathe together, stay together: Malaysia state seeks to spice up marriages, drive down divorces

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia - A Malaysian state government fretting about rising divorces said Monday it will offer classes on romance to help Muslim couples stay together - even encourage them to bathe together to promote intimacy.

Officials will hire image consultants to hold workshops providing tips for wives on how to remain attractive, including using perfume and wearing lingerie to spice up their sex life, said Muhammad Ramli Nuh, a lawmaker in northern Terengganu state. Husbands should wear clean pyjamas and reduce body odour.

The state will also invite cosmetics manufacturers to come up with special scents meant to "help sustain the happiness" in marriages, Muhammad Ramli said.

Authorities in the Muslim-majority state are also urging couples to spend as much time together to boost their rapport, including by praying, eating and bathing together.

"Their time together shouldn't only be in the bedroom sleeping," Muhammad Ramli said.

Muhammad Ramli, a top official in the state's Islamic development council, did not immediately have data on divorces in Terengganu, but said it was "becoming a problem that must be tackled."

The suggestion could appear bold in this Muslim-majority, conservative country where people generally do not discuss their private lives openly.

    My husband and I take baths together, we take the time to chat about things, touch each other and just be playful I think it's great way to actual get the time for the two people.

    I think if people are getting a divorce is should be because of something more pressing than, "He stinks" or "she's not as hot as she used to be" Those are things that should be able to be worked on, or around. I do like the part where they are encouraging the couples to spend more time together though. I think that is a good thing. I don't think there is going to be a magical perfume that is going to fix the problem though.
