    With normal friends, i only care to an extent of what they think about me, and i dont really worry to much if i make a fool of myself. However there is this guy i am completely obsessed with this opinions of me, and I always want approval in my head from him, is this normal when u like somebody, as in he asked me what i wanted to do after graduating from university, and I was so scared of telling him, and i was too scared of what he might think. I am usually comfortable with other friends though. I just do not really want him to know my weaknesses.

    From the ladies perspective, is there such a thing as a dude that is just too clean? or if given a choice, do you prefer to be with someone that smells good all the time? Recent studies have suggested that having too many showers, etc. may actually affect your immune system; but I wanted to know if the ladies had a preference.

    Let's say you know what is love and you believe you experienced it. You have a partner who you love and you consider this to be the best love you've ever felt and the strongest most intense one. A billionaire makes you an offer: 1.Never to see this person again in your lifetime for the sum of 80 million USD? 2.To watch your partner have sex with somebody else in front of you, however he/she cannot fake, he/she should be relaxed and feel genuine pleasure from the act (it will be detected to a brain scanning system or smth. to see that), so you'll have to watch him/her have pleasurable sex. 3.To have sex with your mother(if man), father (if woman) for this amount of money.(sorry for the sick question, a friend next to me just gave me the idea...I admit, that's sick...) Please answer both questions and specify your gender and age. Thank you. Answer to 1, 2 , 3 with yes/no.
  • How can I calm down and trust my man?

    Marriage & Divorce - 5 hours ago

    I love my partner so much, we have been together for nearlly 10 years. I know of so many people who have split up and divorced people too. I said to my friend what would you do if your husband left you and she said, there is always someone else round the corner. My problem is I love my partner so much and I know he loves me but I am scared of him leaving me one day, it seems to happen so much in life. I couldnt stand it. I dont want anyone else who maybe round the corner I just want him. Many of the people I know leave because of an affair. I worry in case one day he meets someone else that he will fall for. He says he wont but how do you know unless you meet that person that makes you feel excited? He says he still feels like that with me and noone else could make him feel like that, How can anyone know until it happens? I trust he wouldnt sleep with anyone else for the sake of it but how can you trust someone not to do that if it just happens and they didnt expect it to either?
  • Can guys explain this to me?

    Why do some guys, not all of course, feel threatened by a girl and see her as competition rather than someone he should care for and respect.Usually they are nice and respectful at first and some guys stay that way but some guys feel they have something to prove and start to play up. I get that girls do this too, but i'm interested in why there are some guys who do this. Is it a power struggle? If its a woman that they feel no control with? she threatens his ego in some way? I get that it depends on the type of women, soe can be loud brash and yell "I'm a strong woman!"- those women are usually weak and also have something to prove. I'm just talking about normal mature level headed girls.
  • What should I do about him?

    Singles & Dating - 6 hours ago

    Additional Details

    I have a friend that i've known for about 9 years. We were quite good friends 9 years ago, but after that we only saw each other occasionally for years. About 6 months ago we got closer again and started seeing each other more regularly. He said to me a few months ago that all those years ago he had a massive crush on me. I was surprised and told him i'd never seen him as anything other than a friend. But I assumed he was over that. It turns out he's not and a friend of his took me to one side the other day and told me that he really, really likes me and since then he's been making it really obvious. Like he made some burritos when i went round to his flat and they were so spicy I could only eat a bit of one and he was visibly upset and kept saying sorry and that he'd f*cked up. I felt really guilty for not being able to eat more. When we chat on MSN or facebook he often implies that he likes me. I've told hm 3 times now that I only see him as a friend and now it's getting to the point that i'm uncomfortable around him. He is a really, really cool guy, I just don't fancy him The thing is, what do I do? I really want to keep this guy as a friend, he's a lot of fun and I like the people i've met through him a lot. I know the best thing is to probably just stop hanging around with him but I don't want to have to do that
  • Why would I say the wrong name while having sex?

    Singles & Dating - 7 hours ago

    Additional Details

    Ok so i know this has probably happened before but while having sex with my gf i popped out the name of my ex. Not only do i feel awful about this, but its eating me up inside as to why. The only thing i can think of is she was on top and the only girl that ever did that before was my ex, so my fool male mind shot out the name it associated the feeling with. I know all the girls that will reply to this will probably think me some scumbag, but I'm not cheating on my current gf, i love and adore her more than anyone i've ever met, that's why this is killing me. To boot I honestly hated my ex, she moved in with me after like 2 weeks, stayed eating my food, using me as a taxi, and just caused more problems for me than anyone i've ever been with for 6 long months. I didn't have the balls to boot her to the curb and let her live on the street so that's my fault, but why in the world i moan her name?! I'm sitting here with the greatest girl i've ever met, and i blurt out THAT name. Not even a famous name like Heidi Klum, but my freaking ex! I keep asking myself WTF, but nothing comes to mind really other than i'm a total moron. So if any guys, or girls have any idea what the hell i was thinking please enlighten me. She's sticking around for now, but i don't know for how long, all i know is i feel like i don't deserve her.
