Family & Relationships

What
People these days are so worried about living their lives in the modern times..but why? People got along just fine in the olden days. Actually people got along way better then we do now. Relationships were stronger due to a more sound moral structure. Also men/women were more inclined to be a support system for their mate. Family's did things together more often, resulting in a better upbringing for children. Even in the work environment...do you notice how people dress for interviews or even on the job. Jeans, holy shirts, short dresses. What ever happen to a nice pair of slacks and an appropriate shirt for a "LADY" even a modest skirt. Men dress pants and a button down? I'd prefer to live back then. Mind you I'm 20 and feel this way... anyone else?
Nothing is wrong with the old fashion way. A lot of folks don't pass on down the values or views of good up bringing. We spend so much time on things that means so little the the little things that means a lot are foreign to most family nowadays. Sorry to say but it going to get worst if folks don't teach their kids the good old fashion way.
yeah. i agree.
and the tv shows for kids today? what happened to sesame street from when i was a kid, none of the wierd sexual innuendos like on hannah montana.
and why is wrong to be married at age 20?
Yes...i feel the same way. I actually posted just a few minutes ago about relationships and how people aren't honest anymore...etc.
those days are gone
its time to start something new
we cant relive the past
Its easy to look on the past as being better then the present. We are not there!
My boyfriend and I have this argument all the time. I have to remind him that if things went back to those ways we also wouldn't have all the good things that we do now. Sure there wasn't divorce...this also meant that if a man beat his wife she would stay anyway....sure famlies were more stable but that is because women didn't work. I agree that people look like garbage at work however in order to have the great personal freedom we have today it means that some will do things that others don't like.
Before the sexual revolution women were in a crappy spot. Imagine what it must have been like to have to rely solely on the males in your life. Maybe you have a great dad but what about women who don't. Imagine if after graduating high school your only options were to get married and have babies (yes birth control was illeagle) or have a lower paying job then a man (double wage standards)...hey until fairly recently in many states it was legal for a man to rape his wife...
I'm not a feminist, I just appriciate the face that I'm a 25 year old female who owns a small business (not likely back then!) and lives alone (scandalous!) I do wish that people dressed better though!
PS there are not a lot of Ladies anymore, gentelman either! sad

Girl taking problems major crisis?
There is a very ugghhh girl that i hate and she hates me and i LOVES my boyfriend and her and my boyfriend are friends. I hate her she is really Ugly and stupid! help! P.S - she is spreading rumors about me!
tell your boyfriend about it and tell him you don't feel comfortable that he is talking to her since she hates you and shes starting rumors. dont let them get to you. she is ovb. jealous of you and your boyfriend
i know how the bf feels. most of my friends and bf hate eachother. but i have an odd taste in people soo. i'd probably just let them fight or whatever. talk to your bf though. he's probably more helpful than i am
wow u sound so immature
i bet shes not even saying anything about you
if she is just kick her ***
but if shes just there and you hate her for like no reason then u just need to suck it up and talk to her and become friends

Are there any words of wisdom you like to pass along to me?
Keep your family first in everything you ever do.
Never let anyone tell you that you can't do or accomplish something.
Don't worry about life much, just go with the flow and try to make the best of every day.
think before you talk, always put Jesus first in every you do, no matter what you are doing always do your best

Okay i never kissed a guy and im 15 lol A little help?
nothing to embarrassing but i have never kissed a guy. lol my boy friend said the only reason is because im not easy (lol he should know it took him 2 yrs to get me) so i need help what do i do!?! ugh im so embarrassed but i need help. I really want to kiss him but i don't want to be a bad kisser soooo help? does it come naturally?
Well if u want to blow his socks off.
Ask him what he likes when kissing.
When you know what he likes then you will drive him crazy.
Don't worry , kissing is a lot easier then you think it is.
have you ever kissed anyone on the cheek? it's the same thing, you only change the part of the face. remember how you kiss on the cheek? like not banging your head against their face, not slobering, not making your lips rock hard, just making it nice and soft? it's exactly the same thing when kising on the lips.
don't be nervous. it's the easiest thing. when he'll kiss you you'll know how to respond.
what's he waiting for anyway?
Don't rush waiting a while and being sure is much more worth the wait.
it comes naturally, follow his lead and dont be nervous!

How has your life been different than what you imagined?
I thought I was going to do really well in college and be a doctor. I thought I was going to find a really cool guy and have a wonderful relationship. I thought I would lose a bunch of weight and become more attractive so that I could kind of say "shove it" to the people who were mean to me in school. I thought I was going to make lots of money and live in a several million dollar house. I used to drive around and look at them, lusting after them and knowing that I was smart enough to acquire one for myself. Then Christianity started slipping in. I started feeling guilty for eating as much as I do. When I pass a big house, I now feel ashamed and I feel guilty about the people who have nothing. Everything I once had pleasure in is now tainted by a reality that keeps creeping up on me and screaming, "People are starving! People are in pain! Do something! You're going to hell!" I can't shake these thoughts, but I still haven't changed enough. So it's like I'm still living selfishly, only now it's tainted with fear all day. I hope I'll get the guts or whatever to just leave this materialistic stuff behind and throw myself into serving people. If I don't do that, I'm very afraid of the consequences. I'm even wondering if I've waited so long and done so many bad things that it's too late for me. I don't know. Nothing feels the same, and I find myself envying people who still live in the comfortable ignorance I once had.
at my age i thought i would be married with children. i am very disappointed about this but the only thing i can do is move on in life and enjoy myself until it happens. and if it doesn't i just still have to enjoy life. i only have one!

Question for those 21 about a clingy MIL?
I would prefer if the answers came from adults only please. Basically my boyfriend and I have been together for 2.5 years now, I'm 27 and we're expecting our first child together. Most of the 2.5 years have been living apart, just neighboring states 2.5 hrs away while he finishes getting his degree. He has his own apartment and his parents live about 45 minutes away from him. He goes home every weekend and comes to stay with me 1 weekend a month and whenever he has breaks from school. I have stayed with him as well. He is an only child, never brought a girl or woman home until me and though I love his parents and I know they like me as well his mother seems SOO clingy it can be quite annoying sometimes. Some examples of the most extreme cases were one period I stayed with him for about 2 weeks after having not seen him for around 2 months. She called him every single day without fail for the most ridiculous reasons like to tell him about something on tv, something her dog did or whatever. A few weeks ago he had spring break and although he and I had plans to go out of town together they invited us to go on a trip with them. We both agreed it would be a good idea to go, and we would spend the first half of the break with them and then he would come home with me to finish it off. Well without warning or asking us last minute they changed the date of the trip so that we'd have less time at the end of spring break. Once we got back from the trip we basically said our goodbyes and loaded up the car to head to my place. His mother called him twice within 10 minutes to ask him to come back and for us to stay there longer. He kept telling her we were on the expressway. The second call was to ask him if he could come back early, I mean seriously he goes home every weekend and I see him a weekend a month. We had about 3 days left of his spring break. Is it just me or is that too much? I don't want to seem unreasonable but it would be nice to have my boyfriend to myself for the short periods of time I have him for. I don't think it's asking too much. I know all MIL aren't like that, so I don't want to hear "wait till your kid grows up and meets someone". I WILL NOT be clingy, my mother wasn't like that, neither were any of my ex boyfriends' mothers. So tell me straight if I am overreacting, and if I'm not do you think it will ever go away or get better? With a baby coming later this year I fear things will be even worse, her first grandchild and all *shivers*. Keep in mind I have given you a very short version of some of the things she has done, there are many more stories.
she is clingy. you should observe how she is with her husband. And she probably has some past issues like everyone else. Maybe bring it up to your bf when your not irritated about it and maybe he kinna thinks the same. But when shes at her worst remember its wayy better than a MIL who is a BIOTCH!!!
Either she's a nut or your bf is a momma's boy. You better resolve it now or it'll get worse, trust me, been there.
