pregnant
Posted: 6/20/2006 6:29:07 AM
I find that the comments for having unwanted pregnancies is due to stupidity very offensive. You have no idea of each persons situation and how that pregnancy came about. How is it your friend is the only "extremly rare" case. Accidents happen all the time. I was on the Pill and had been for 8years (so I highly doubt I was using them incorrectly) and was using condoms when I became pregnant. It was an accident simple as that...not stupidity. You should think before making stupid comments. The only thing you are correct on is that when you engage in sexual activity you take the responsibility of becoming pregnant. I became pregnant and have a beautiful daughter who is 7 years old now who I have been responsible for since the day I found out I was pregnant. It didn't work between me and her father but would not change a thing. And from what I have read most everyone that got pregnant unexpectedly has taken on that responsibility and love their child more then anything. It is a lot of hard work being a parent but it's even harder being a single parent. Instead of getting up on your soap box try being in our shoes for a day and then maybe you would have a little more respect for what we do and what we go thru. No matter how hard it is I would never change one minute of it. There is no greater joy then having a child look at you with unconditional love or when they have accomplished something for the first time that look of pride.

Is separated single?
Posted: 5/10/2006 5:41:55 AM
It really depends on the person and the situation. I am divorced but when in VA we had to be separated for a year before the divorce was final. I don't feel it is right that a person must put their life on hold and not see other people for that long, if it's over it's over. But there are some cases where a couple may be separated but to them it may meen taking some time apart and dating to see if they missed out on something more. I don't think I would date someone who has only been separated for a very short time because there are still very strong feelings that can not go away overnight and takes some time. I don't think I started dating again until about 5months into the separation because I didn't feel it was fair to someone else to go out with them if I wasn't really ready emotionally even though I knew there was no chance of me and my ex getting back together. I think that in most cases that is safe to say a person is as good as being single when they are separated.

Opinion on Female Tattoos - Lower Back!
Posted: 5/9/2006 1:50:52 PM
I have a tattoo on my lower back and have never heard "tramp stamp" and if a guy were to see it doesn't mean that they are going to get laid by me. Just because a female has a tattoo on their lower back doesn't mean they are a slut or tramp and I would guess the ones that do give it up easy would give it up even if they didn't have a tattoo there.
But 14 is way too young for a tattoo in a year or two (maybe even a week) her interest could change and she may not like it anymore and wish she had gotten something else. I would never let my daughter get a tattoo at that age. I have a 7yr old and she says she can't wait to get one and I tell her that she might as well not even think about it until she is 18 and even then I hope she waits. I don't think many shops will let a child that young get a tattoo even with a parents permission and if you did find one I would be really worried about their quality of work. Most shops here in richmond won't even let anyone in under the age of 18 even with a parent.
It's nice to hear that you are an open-minded parent but sometimes you have to draw a line because at 14 she is still just a child and at that age it could just be a fad like a pair of shoes she "must" have. She may be mad at first but at that age I'm sure she will find something else to be mad at you about in no time.

How does one stop having sex with an ex?
Posted: 4/28/2006 9:37:14 AM
I am going thru the same thing right now but I am trying to move on with my life and meet new people. It is hard especially when you have been with that person for awhile. I have been on a few dates trying to get over him but he seems to always have a knack for calling me as soon as I go out or stopping by which becomes awkward for both me and my date. I would love to be single and have him completly out of my life for good but not sure if it is like having an addiction for each other or if I'm just scared of being single again. I know that the relationship is far from healthy and I know that we will never be together as boyfriend and girlfriend but it's hard to just drop all the emotions and feelings you had for this person. It does get a little easier with time because I'm finding that more and more lately I don't want to be around him and I'm sure with time you will feel the same about your ex...hang in there.

Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all?
Posted: 4/21/2006 7:25:58 AM
I don't think I would meet someone without a picture but would defiantly talk to them. I have also learned from past experiences (not from this site but another) that a picture doesn't mean that is what that person will actually look like but at least I have an idea. I have met guys who had a really nice picture up but when I met them they either looked nothing like the picture or they had gained quite a bit of weight since it had been taken. I don't think that I am a shallow person but there has to be some type of an attraction. I think having a picture up (a current pic) is part of being honest and wouldn't you want to meet someone that is attracted to you from the start then meeting that person and never hearing from them and getting disappointed?!
