Okay, first of all, to clarify; I'm not a cradle snatcher or anything. I'm 17 ... soon to be 18 and he's almost 17. The difference is little over a year. Okay so to start my story off there was this one night at my house when he stayed over and both my brother and his friend (Dan) were watching movies in my brother's room, and I told them I was tired so I'd sleep on the couch and let them watch the movie, but Dan said not to go, and to watch the movie here and if I fall asleep he'll be sure to wake me, and that they'll be really quiet. He pulled back the covers and patted the space beside him was really nice about it. There was definitely some flirting. Like I'd threaten to leave the room and he'd grab my hand and hold on for obviously more time than was necessary, or say I look really cute when I do such a thing - that sort of thing. Anyway, I fell asleep, as tired as I was and when I woke up around 4am I found that he hadn't woken me as promised, but was instead spooning me. I knew I kinda liked the guy before this. But I think we both knew the other one was awake, and we kept being very touchy feely anyway - but not TOO much. The next morning we both acted like it hadn't happened. There was no discussion and things went on as normal. Since then we might have a moment or two when we touch the other's hand or arm or look over and smile at one another... but other than that it's really just friends stuff and I know I want more but I'm scared it was a one night thing and I really worry that i fell for this guy. But here are my problems: I don't think I'm his type I don't know what he really thinks about me I'm not super confident He's my brother's best friend (trust me these problems are NOT in order) And what I'm hoping for advice with is: How can I tell if he's interested? I have had my share of boyfriends, but this guys different - more 'swavay'. He could get any girl he wants. And I'm not sure how to confront that kind of guy. Like, how to act around him to get his attention. I really want to leave this guy with an impression of me that will stick in his head... I just wanna know how to do it - without being a slut preferably!! How do I make him know I want to be more than his friend's sister. I want out of the friend zone. If you can give me any advice or past stories that are similar and what you did, I'd really appreciate it :) Thanks moreOpen Question: Spray that i can spray on furniture To keep my cat away?

Ethan(3 1/2) stopped taking naps about 8-9 months ago. Sophie (21 months) still takes them. I'm pregnant and sooooo tired. I wondered how other moms felt about taking a cat nap while the older child is still awake? Our house is VERY childproof, even extra child proof locks at the tops of the doors, cabinets and drawers childproofed, baby gates at the stairs, etc. I would lay on the couch next to Ethan while I let him watch some cartoons. I'm a very light sleeper and would most definitely wake up if he got up-I've actually done this several times on the weekend when my husband was here(but in the other room or outside). I just wondered if you thought this was wrong? The only thing I could see Ethan getting into would be his toys. Pens, playdo, crayons, chemicals, medicines, etc are all safely stored away from his reach. Would this be bad parenting? Thanks, no rude answers please. I'm a tired nauseated pregnant hormonal woman. moreOpen Question: If we were dating for a few weeks and it was going great, and then one night I was very distant & he ended it?
Does that mean he just didn't like me enough? I mean I am very stressed out, my dad died a couple weeks ago, my license got taken away and I can't drive until I pay money,I am trying to find a good job, and I wore a new dress for him but felt self-conscience and kept leaving him on my couch to go check the mirror and I turned away a bit when he kissed me on the cheek. I really like him so much and am just so worried of him going away and then he did just that, he left in the middle and we messaged back and forth and he said goodbye and blocked me from his facebook. I don't think I was that horrible, but is that just his way of saying he just isn't that into me anyway. We never were intimate like that, he said he was trying to show me he respected me, and I should have shared my problems but now it's too late. I am hurt. moreOpen Question: I keep hitting snap hooks with my Driver HELP!!!!?
I keep hitting a snap hook with my driver my couch told me to the club more upright instead of too far inside i have tried that and i still hit the snap hooks. Do u think i need a new driver. moreResolved Question: How to keep a dog off of the couch?
My 11-month old GSD mix (rescued) is pulling the blankets/covers off of the couch on an intermittent basis (i.e., it's not all the time, but it's frequent enough to be a problem). The reason that I have the blankets on the couch in the first place is because he and/or my cats tend to jump up there while I am away from home (Note: my puppy has NEVER jumped up on the couch while I'm around, so "catching him in the act" has not been a possibility; likewise for my cats); as such, I have put the blankets/covers on to try to keep the hair off as much as possible. However, my puppy evidentally likes the smell of the blankets (at least I'm assuming that that's what it is), so he occasionally (once a week; sometimes more, sometimes less) pulls them onto the floor and slobbers all over them. As a result, my couch is getting more and more covered in animal hair, seeing as all of my companion animals jump up there after the covers have been pulled off and must stay there pretty much until I get home (which could be between 10 minutes and four hours, depending on where I've gone). I have tried spraying down the blankets/covers with various types of "anti-chew" sprays, but they no longer seem to be working (although they did deter him a bit at first); also, he does not do this all the time, although he does do it regardless of whether or not he has been given a "tasty treat"/fun toy beforehand (i.e., my attempt at "bribe" to keep him from pulling off the blankets). He is getting plenty of exercise (i.e., a couple of hours' worth of walking each day, 1/2 of it before I go to work and 1/2 of it when I return; lots of backyard exercise time, which now includes tug-of-war since he's not a fan of fetching; etc.), and he also has plenty of chewies and toys at his disposal (and yes, I did try taking them away and alternating them in as I saw fit, but that did not work either). Anyone got any other suggestions as to how to keep my lovely little darling from going on the couch and/or pulling the covers off of it when the mood hits him? P.S. – He has not actually chewed the couch itself yet, although there has been copious amounts of drool on it (presumably from his attacks on the blankets/covers). moreOpen Question: I keep having the same dream. Please help?
So, every time I dream a dream they are so life like, but I've been having this weird dream for, literally, 1 year.. It happens at least 5- 10 times a month. Sometimes it changes slightly but its all the same. Basically Im in my house and I have a strange urge that I have to leave, like now. So I open my window and right as I jump out of it my door opens. So I keep running and I run to my friends house, who lives down the street. I climb her window ( its fairly close to the ground) and I tell her she needs to come with me and I know somewhere we can go, she looks really scared and so we go and run to god- knows- where. As were running it feels like we're going 2 miles an hour... I never see where Im going. The thing is if I try to look at who is "after me" in the beginning the dream kinda seems like its shaking and I wake up. Its so freaking scary. What scares me the most is that my mom and I both have dreams that come true... a lot. Like, she had a dream I was going to get hit by a car and 5 days later I was walking and I got hit by a car, I had a dream my grandpa was going to die and he left me something under his favorite couch, that came true too... this has happened many times before. I really don't know what this dream means. moreOpen Question: help a.s.a.p how do you drain a washer?

Constructive criticism, please.?
English is not my native language. This is going to be mystical story. And there will be love too. Shallow bean When Gregory went home this night, he wouldn’t have imagined things that will wait him there. Proper shoes – no way! It was something epic for a poor imigrant from Ireland. Three weeks earlier he survived ambush from bushes. Leg was broken, but otherwise OK. Well, not really. No more race driving for you, fellow. Let’s return to this grey evening. Rain drops were hitting his nose, street was black and cats were fighting on the rooftops. Gregory had feeling, that something was not alright. He started to limp faster. His trailer was just around the corner. The scene he saw was in no way imaginable for him. No one saw Gregory at school next morning. Its not that anyone really care. Jimmy even spitted on his picture.Yes, Jim holds one in his wallet. For healt benefits. Summer puked later that day. She saw a nightmare at lesson of mathematic. It was unclear, like a cloud of bees flying at the storm. However she felt terrible. Summer acted weird for a week now. She’s a girlfriend of Jimmy, but he is the only one who hasn’t noticed changes in her. Jimmy have a cool poolhouse with tons of cool stuff. Some say that he and his so called friends sniff coke there, but I dont know. Grotty Gregory was living in trailer with his mom for around 2 years. Well Jane, his mom, is a drunkard, so she don’t care that Gregory is lost. But he have a friend called old Tim. Hes a rancher who herds his cattle by Janes trailer once a week. He usually gives them some cash. And so he noticed that Gregory is lost. He talked to Jane. -Hey, Jane, wheres the boy, I have a present for him! -hurrrrrr -Your such a scumbag! Put down the bottle! -Fill it up, partner! Rrrrrr -Go to hell slut! Where is Gregory? -Look in some place else handsome! No been here for a week. -You will be sorry for this! Tim, like every good citizen would, went to police. He was looking for marshall Homer, the last uncorrupted cop in the region. -Hey Homer, how you feel? -Ahh, not so good Tim, Mery’s just driving me crazy! Ooo, silicon nibbles my breast! Bitch! -Yeah, sorry man! Listen, did you know that Douglas boy is lost? -What? That poor kid? Tell me more! -Well, as I understand he is lost for a week now. That monster we need to call his mother, doesn’t care about that too! Deam we need to do something! In mind of that slut his dead as dodo! -Sure, I’ll send five patrols to look for him! Let’s see what will happen. By myself -No mommy, I send to hell your cookies! -What is wrong with you Summer? -As you know it’s autumn now! Summer is gone! -You ungreatful girl, I give you all, but you act like this? -Sure! I’ll go and sleep if your highness doesn’t mind! Yes, she sure is angry girl. Well she wasn’t about some two weeks ago. Summer interests about fashion wery much. Her closet is dividend into sections. Section 1 – Dolche & Gabana, section 2 – Gucci, section 3 – Bvlgari and so on. She goes in most prestige school of the state. Together with Jimmy. They have planned their future. Next morning Jim took her to school with his limo. He is a real gentelman, when he need to oblige his girlfriend’s rich parents. Ofcourse Jimmy’s parents are rich too, but you can never have too much money. Two powerful families together becomes more powerful. Everybody knows that Jimmy likes to carouse. He like to smoke some weed at dinner break. Unusual for her, Summer uses marijuana now too. For about a week. Clubbing and rubbing Jim wanted celebration. He made celebration. Rented a club. And so the party begins. Jimmy was sitting and talking with Summer. -Well, sweetheart, you like the party? -Yeah, sure. -Really? Maybe you wanna smoke? -No no! I’ll be fine. Summer had anxious look. Jimmy said her: -Let’s go upstairs, I know how to pleasure you. So they went up. There is a nice leather couch. Jimmy slowly undressed her and they dived into pleasures of love. After 15 minutes they heard weird noise. They went down and saw that a special forces unit has breaked in the club. Obviously they had an intel that there are drugs inside. Jimmy ran away through the back window. Summer felt on the ground and started to cry. moreOpen Question: Poll: your couch starts insulting you. how do you respond?

I've been dating my bf on and off for going on about a year now. The pattern seems to be that his inconsiderate behavior pushes me to a point where I end it, and then he begs to have me back, full of promises & apologies. Despite my reservations, I take him back bc for whatever reason I'm crazy about him. I'm a person who loves gift-giving and so I have given him very thoughtful gifts for special occasions in the past. On the other hand, part of his Christmas gift to me was a dinner out that never materialized and on valentine's day he left my house telling me he had to go to the mall that day to get me a gift. Then we had take out for dinner while we watched tv on the couch. My birthday was better and we weren't technically together at the time. He took me out for a nice dinner but no card or gift. I don't mean to sound ungrateful as it's not about money spent but about the thought put into a gift. Anyway his birthday is now coming up and I don't know how to handle it. Part of me doesn't want to make a big deal over him bc of his past behavior. The other part of me wants to make him feel special on his birthday and do something thoughtful. Also I don't want to set a precedent where we no longer give gifts to one another. What would you do? Also, when you ask someone to "let you know" if they are free to hang out on a particular day, how long is appropriate for them to get back to you? Bf and I have differing opinions on this and it infuriates me to no end when it takes him hours to days to give me a simple yes or no. moreOpen Question: How do I stop my rescue husky from excited/submissive urinating?
Sky is about 2 years old and she is a rescue. Her owner is out of the country and my roommate and I are keeping her for a year. She used to be very aggressive but now she is very calm and submissive. She has come to really like me and my roommate and she gets so excited to see us even when we simply walk into the living area that she immediately pops a squat and urinates.

In the past 2 weeks, i've had 4 dreams of getting shot.. The first was somewhat like a "game". I was in a large house, and I had to find a way out. There was a few people on my "team" to help me. We couldn't encounter the asian woman bringing tea, or we were forced to forfeit and be disqualified. I remember having to climb through the vent above the bathroom but getting caught by the woman.. Then i was in a gun chase with another woman dressed entirely in black followed by a strong man. I was shot in the head, then I woke up. The second I was at high school prom, and I was alone. Everyone was dancing when I got there and suddenly there was a gun to my head, and then I woke up. The third was not me who was shot, however it seemed I felt the effects... The man who was shot was in the army and he was shot in the head on the street but refused to go down. He got up after being shot and tried to fight it but he was coaxed by his team to lie back down. He finally did so, and was then shot again in the heart. Then I woke up. The last and most recent, last night, I was at a sleepover with friends and the woman dressed in black was there.. At first we were fighting, then we came to a truce. Then, while sitting in the family room, i shot her in the foot and she grabbed my gun. A friend there convinced her to put the gun down, and the friend shortly after emptied the bullets. It seemed not long after, the woman in black grabbed the gun, reloaded it and had it pointed at me. I slid under the couch and she pulled me out and shot me 3 times.. once in the neck, then the heart, and finally the head, and then I woke up. Can anyone please tell me what this means? /: moreOpen Question: How to decorate my living room with a bright red loveseat and brown chair?!?

What the heck could she possibly be thinking?also this is not the first time she's done this. and I'm confused because she chose him over me. I really just want to know what shes thinking I kind of get the feeling shes trying to keep me around as an option (also Andy couldn't see what was going on from where he was and I think she stopped so he wouldn't notice) moreOpen Question: 7 Month-old puppy acting weird?
Alright, well for a little bit of background, my puppy just got fixed about a week and a half ago. He was acting normal - still as energetic as ever, he's a Jack Russell Terrier - until the 16th, and it was like someone flipped a switch in his brain. He climbed onto the back of our couch and stared at the wall for about an hour and a half, occasionally licking at his incision area and jerking his head around at what seemed to be nothing. He's gone from being a playful, energetic puppy to almost entirely withdrawn - he sits under one of the end tables behind a box and doesn't come out, sometimes not even for treats. He won't play, he barely eats (beside treats and the occasional bit of "people food"), and today he didn't drink much water. When I take him outside he usually pees, but when he poops it's very small. Tonight he's been coughing or dry-heaving, and his breathing seems more rapid and lighter than normal. He's due to go to the vet's in about 2 hours, but at the very minimum I'm looking at ideas as to what he could be suffering from. Anyone have any idea? moreOpen Question: HELP ME- TODDLER MADNESS?
My toddlers age 18 months and one is almost 3. I am a young mother only being 22 and I havent vented out on the internet since a year ago. Things seem like they are going backwards. My almost 3 year old boy, is going backwards... He used to listen to me, put things away, at around 3 months ago but now he wont listen to me, he wont put things in the bin, he points at me and talks back, to a point i have to hold his hands and use a roaring voice just to let him know that he doesnt disrespect his mother that way .,. I also feel I am going backwards.. I have become so cold towards both of them. I mean i do force my smiles but I really have realised how much I dont enjoy mothering.. I used to love it, I just dotn know what happened. I believe its maybe because I am a constant referee the minute they wake up as they fight constantly. Noah my oldest is in daycare 3 times a week, and my fiance has two days off yet I still cant handle them on days where they dont have daycare. I just question why I cant handle them. I have tried councelling, and a year ago I was hospitalised for depression but its almost like its creeping up again slowly. I am actually fine if I have the one but with the two I almsot pull my hair out, to a point i question myself as a mother as I just feel like i bully my eldest. (I KNOW I DONT bully him literally but when your telling him ALL the time to not get on the couch with shoes, stop hurting his brother, dont talk to mummy like that, dont do that, stay back from the tv; ITS CONSTANT) My youngest seems to ne easy but together they are just wild boys. I just have lost my motivation, i have recently lost my motivation to study, to clean or to read books to them) it hurts , i really feel that I am just going backwards , i hate who i am as a mother to these kids. I feel i am so reactive recently , to a poitn i shake if they do silyl little things.. I just want to ask, Has this happened to you, to mothers who have had kids close together in age. My fiance and i are just so stressed to a point we are fighting alot as well.. its just crazy, let me know, people say it will get better but i feel its getting harder and harder...:( moreOpen Question: Where can I take my friend to take her mind off of this?
I'm gonna be completely honest and say I don't know where things stand between me and this girl. She's been a friend for years, I know she used to like me, I used to like her, it's all complicated. Regardless, she lost her grandma a few weeks ago. She came to me for support, and after crying for 2 hours while hugging she ended up cuddling up next to me on the couch, twining fingers, etc. She told me it was the first time she's ever slept next to a guy. I didn't let anything happen beyond twining fingers/cuddling, I'm not gonna take advantage of someone like that. Thing is... her nana's birthday is this weekend. I asked her how she was doing a few days ago and she told me she was struggling. She used to go up to her house every year for her birthday, this is the first year there will be no such trip (it's 5 hours away and she's working as well). The only thing I'm sure of is I want to be with her that night. She's already made some bad decisions that were only a hair away from being truly awful. Some random guy took her back to his place 2 weeks back... and then she started crying. If he had taken advantage of her I probably would have hunted him down, but he was a decent guy and they just had a heart to heart. She's never gone off with a random guy at a party before. She was blackout drunk... but if that's how she is before this weekend, I need some seriously good ideas. Where should we go? What can we do? What would you want to do in such a situation? I've yet to lose any relatives (thank god) so I've never had to deal with anything like this. moreOpen Question: what do you think of my story?
its a short story (incomplete) but heres what i got so far. The soul taker I always had a strange ability. I was never like normal people and I always dreamt of the next day. I didn’t have a fantasy world or anything special. But maybe I was better off like that. I never told anyone about my gift. I didn’t want them to just thinking of me as there psychic. Last night as I was falling asleep I dreamt of my sister who had recently moved out collapsing to the ground. All of the sudden I woke up taking deep breaths. I automatically put on a spaghetti strap , jeans , and some sandals and was on my way. I stepped on the gas and sped my way out. By the time I made it there I learned the elevator was out of order. So I had to run all the way up 14 flights of stairs. Once I made it upstairs I started banging on her door. She answered and she asked me what I was doing. I had to lie on my feet and said “I didn’t want to stay at my house. “whatever you can sleep on the couch” she said to me. I figured I should go back to sleep and see as much information as I can before the man arrives. I could not sleep though. Around 2 in the afternoon I heard a knock on the door. I hid and figured I was prepared. As she opened the door a man pinned her down on the ground and looked in her eyes. His eyes were changing to a green color and my sisters pupils where shrinking. I was trying to hold my tears so I would not be noticed. After a while her pupils where gone and the man said to himself “nice and refreshed”. I looked at her on the ground and she just stood there.her eyes wide open but it was just white. I felt like a coward but then I remembered the stairs. I followed him but kept quiet as a was walking I had fallen and he turned around. He looked down and said “whats this trash”. I was shivering he picked me up by the neck and pinned me against the wall. Mmmmmmmmmm you look delicious he looked in my eyes and I started getting a weak helpless feeling. All the sudden it felt like I was leaving earth but it all just stopped. I got full feeling again. He let me go and I fell. I then had a bunch of thoughts occur to me. My main one was “why am I any exception”. He then ran away. That night well I was home I did research and I found out more about the man. He is named the soul taker he feeds on energy instead of food. There are very few souls that are born with a special ability that can suppress the soul taker. These are the people who must kill the soul taker. On a full moon when he is at the top of his ability he will be able to take my soul. But that is also the only time I could kill him. I would have to look at him in the eyes and some how over power him. I would need to take him down. It was a new moon so I had lots of time to train. All of the sudden I heard a noise. Followed by a few footsteps. I automatically hid under my bed. Then my door slammed open. “come out come out where ever you are”. It was the same man. He checked in my closet and every where else. Then he looked under the bed and found me. My heart started beating fast and I rolled out. I then got up and heard him scream “I am gonna be successful in my pursuit. He jumped over the bed and tackled me to the ground. He knew he could not take my soul but he weakened me. Then carried my body out the room. When I gained full strength I was tied to a pole by the man. I looked at him and asked him “why was I anyone special”? he responded saying “you’re a very good person the nicer you are the tastier your soul. The tastiest soul I have seen in my life. But for now you’re my toy”. I was trying to think of every thing I could do to get out of the ropes. But I could not think of anything the only place where I could get away from anything is my dreams. So I went to sleep. moreOpen Question: Girls, where can I bring my friend (or what should I do) to take her mind off of this?

The dog is a huge menace before anyone judges. We have two kids and this lady down the street had puppies and dumped a miniature poodle puppy on our laps for our sons 4th birthday. Its registered CKC, and is about 16 weeks old. It was a gift from her. It pees on everything, refuses to eat dog food of any kind, eats the kids toys, poops on everything, loves to get into the laundry and pee all over it. It is just a really bad dog. It jumps up, it chews, it nips at the kids playfully, but still we have a 9 month old infant. Worst of all the lady doesn't want it back! So my husband listed it online. He is just sick of it. I know the dog is a menace, and it sucks literally sucks having it here. But the thing means the world to our son and we have discussed her going to a new home. He said he will run away if we get rid of it! I asked him well can I buy you a new video game? He said no he wants the game and the puppy. I don't want this to hurt his development to have something he loves taken away. They chase each other around the front room all day long and my son will hop on the couch so she can't get at him then run around more. I am up in the air regarding this situation. He's an asthmatic so this is the only type of pup he'd ever be able to have, but this specific dog is just bad! I never owned a dog as a kid, so its all new to me. My husband had 17 dogs his mother had a rural home and bred pom-chihuahuas when he was a kid. So he hates animals and doesn't want pets at all. But is it selfish of him to not want it, after all its not his to get rid of?No money nor time for training courses as I said this wasn't planned. Anything in self-help?No tyem, everything belongs to me as I am the breadwinner. Not vice versa, everything is not a man's. I def. wont be choosing your answer.Thanks Erin. We already tried the fish game. He won it at the fair thing died a few days later in a 20 gal filtered tank. We have a Black Moor already and 3 snails. He does feed her! We also have two outdoor cats we rescued years ago. They are old, docile, etc... lol. Yeah the pup is a PITA but we pet, bathe, walk it, etc... It hates its food we tried 5 brands on it but it turns up its nose. It likes chicken, tomatoes, cheeseburgers, carrots, lettuce, and cold cereals. Its a very bad experience and a extreme picky eater. It ate my breast pump too so I guess it likes milk. moreOpen Question: Why does my brother still treat me like a child I'm 21 and he's only 29?
In front of my boyfriend really? He came over to my apartment to get his precious iphone which he left and when he walked in my boyfriend was on the couch he didn't even introduce himself he just threw himself on the couch and said "where's my 2nd child"? "Ary I'm hungry got anything to eat" "jeez ever heard of cleaning" "did you take your vitamins this morning?" "I hope you're not whoring around again" as soon as he got his phone he said "thanks, love you but seriously a little dusting couldn't hurt and he left". WHY? Does he do this he's not my DAD, he's the closest thing I've ever had to one but still. I'm 21 and he has his own daughter who's 11! When he left my boyfriend laughed at me and told me I was in trouble! He's so annoying. He only comes over when he's angry or to tell me to floss! That's what I get for moving to brooklyn 6 blocks away from where he lives. moreOpen Question: During a fight my boyfriend pushed me & yelled IVE NEVER TOUCHED A GIRL IN MY LIFE BUT YOU'R PUSHING IT?
I admit i was throwing crap at him because he is useless and makes me angry. He lies every little things. The moment I yelled at him he stood up yelled at me, grabbed my shoulder and pushed me backward and in to the couch and kept screaming then grabbed me and said GET OUT. That was horrifying. Is should be over right? moreOpen Question: I may be too young but im in love?
I am a 14 year old boy Ok i went over to a female friends house and her mom told me she was in her room. So i went up to her room and did not see her. I looked in every room in the house. I went back to her room and called her cell to see where she was. I heard her phone ring on her dresser. Then her bathroom door opened and she came out naked.(She has pretty big boobs) I turned the other way and said sorry. She walked in front of me and said "No need to be so modest" Then she pulled me up to her and started making out with me. We stopped and she walked over to her shower and said "I was just showering,Wanna join?" Of coarse i walked over,took off all my clothes and got in with her. She looked down at my cock and smiled She jacked me off for a couple of seconds then she bent over and blew me until just before i came She told me to titty fck her so i did and i came all over her boobs The next day we went over to my friends house and spent the night we all slept on his 2 chairs and couch in the middle of the night his grandma had a seizure and the whole family went to the hospital which just left me and her We turned on the lights and she told me to sit down She did an ultra sexy strip and gave me a lapdance I kinda have a foot fettish which she learned in a game we played a couple weeks ago she rubbed her toes on mine as we made out i had a major boner and it was poking her Then she got up sat on the table with legs spread and said "Come get me" I thought about it for a second,considered what could happen but walked over to her put my penis in her vagina and fcked her her boobs were bouncing and she was moaning and saying harder faster i fcked her as hard,fast as i could and she screamed in satisfaction I put her down and she blew me the last secon before i came and she swallowed And just yesterday we were at my house swimming in the lake and my dad told me we can take the boat out so we took the boat out (just me and tori) We were about 5 miles off the coast(i had gps) and we began to talk heres the conversation So,tori i have to ask,was i your first time yes you were,and it was amazing i just wish we didnt have to be secretive about it but we are too young i dont really care me neither then she said "how do you like my new bikini i said "i would look better off" and laughed she took off her top and bottom and said "better?" and giggled i said"well i dont want you to be alone" and took off my swim trunks i laughed and said"by now you've probably seen my cock more than my face we both laughed and made out we walked inside the boat (its huge) and she layed on the bed and spread i got on top and we did it we did it for several minutes and the boat was actually rocking moaning loudly and she screaming harder harder we stopped i was on her penis still in her,her boobs pressed against my chest us looking at eachother and the same time we said "I love you" i came in her vagina and we stopped i drove us back home and we mad out for 20 seconds then walked to out houses Just this morning i was sitting in my room thinking how irresponsible i was but then my mind went blank and i stood up,looked in my mirror and said. "I love Tori with all my heart,i love her so much,i'm going to continue and marry her" "If she gets pregnant in the process,i will stay" Then tori ran in and hugged me and said "I love you more" i said "i meant every word" a tear formed in her eye We made out and she said "my parents wont be home tonight" I chuckled and said "see you there" And i said before she left the room "Seeing you naked was the best mistake ever made" Then she giggled and left the room Then i got on yahoo aswers and wrote about the greatest mistake in the world and see if anyone has had an experience like this well.......... moreOpen Question: Please help sooo uhmmm this is what happened?

My opinion is that my best friend might be gay and in denial. I'm 17 and he's 16 and we're both guys, I told him two years ago that I'm gay and he's totally cool with it. We joke around a lot about it and I think it just made our friendship stronger, but eventually like all my guy friends I have I ended up developing feelings for him, he came to me and asked me if I did and said that "I would rather you tell me the truth than lie to me," so I told him yeah that I did have feelings for him, we still talk on the phone every night or we skype with each other, I pick him up and take him to work just about every other day. When we hangout we're always sitting close to each other, today we we're both in my bed on the laptop surfing the net and last week he was sitting on the couch while I was laying down with my head up against his legs, he then started slapping my forehead playfully with his hand and cellphone and was like "That's muh dick!" and then I helped him wax the little bit of peach fuzz he had between his eyebrows with my mom's facial wax kit :P although he has a girl friend but he goes "Dude I like my girlfriend," and we started discussing why he should be in love with her if he's dating her, not just "like" her. But when we hangout I feel like we have such a good time together, I mean we both laugh and cut up together all while he knows I'm gay and have feelings for him. Only the thing that throws me off is when he told me that "we should spend sometime apart from each other till my feelings for him 'blows over" or last week he told me he's disgusted by the idea of me liking him when he first thinks about it, but he's just trying to be a good friend. Which makes me think "What if he's saying that cause he might have felt like there's something between us?" Which I really don't want to get my hopes up or let my imagination run wild, but this was way too long, I'm sorry guys. Thoughts, opinions, ideas? moreOpen Question: extreme pain in arms + head?
Yesterday I went to the gym and did heavy arm exercises. When I woke this morning, my arms were in extreme pain. Whenever I bended them a sudden rush of pain would overcome me, and at one point it caused me to have a blackout / concussion in my head, so strong to the point that I could literally not see (vision blacked out) anything except for bizarre red specks for almost 5 minutes. I layed on my couch in extreme pain struggling as I waited for the pain to calm down, then struggled to GP up the street as no one else was home, who told me that my arms were just sore from the gym and I need rest and should not lift any weight. However, my head now feels extremely light and woozy, and I am still experiencing random black outs in my eyes, and am finding it really hard to do simple tasks such as reading or something like that as it almost feels like one part of my brain has shut down. Is this a normal occurence for the brain to experience when under extreme pain and what are some steps I can take to ease my pain. Thank you and sorry for the long and senseless text as I'm just poring my thoughts into this question and connect properly control my mind.
