I’ve been dating/talking to this guy for about a month and a half (though I met him a month prior). He’s…wonderful. I know he cares, he doesn’t have his mind on one thing and he really does adore me. I appreciate so many things he does for me & according to him he feels he "should be doing more b/c it’s not enough". Things are goin surprisingly well and since day 1, we’ve always been super comfortable w. each other.

Sooner or later, the "sex" talk was going to be brought up. (I’m actually surprised that he didn’t ask me right away). Thing is, I’m nearing my mid 20’s and i’m still a virgin. I’m not ugly w. a nice personality, nor weird…i’m very protective and picky…it just didn’t happen…didn’t feel right during those times. I’ve done other things BUT "that". I’ve only cared for 3 guys in my life. First boyfriend, i loved him but wasn’t "in love" and there was no chemistry; 2nd guy had too many STD’s and the 3rd…wasn’t "real love"…I just don’t wanna let it go so easily. I’m not ashamed at all yet past experiences have made me be a bit more conscious about it. My virginity was a deal breaker for some guys I’ve dated and as much as i’m "better off", it still kinda hurts. I’ve also dealt w. numerous guys that have only wanted 1 thing but I never let him succeed. With this guy, he’s not like other guys i’ve dated…i actually care about him…alot. So I was very hesistant/nervous/scared/anxious in telling him. So when I did, I got the typcal reaction, "geuninely shocked" and asked if i was really joking/lying "b/c there’s no way a pretty girl like you, would still be a virgin." (as I get fr. alot of guys i’ve dated). I got sensitive to it and just cried. And after he soaked it all in said, "babe, even if you stayed a virgin ’til the day you die, it doesn’t matter…and its okay, don’t worry. I’m not here for that. I want you and that love you give me b/c i’m happy…" The reason I get insecure is b/c guys can say how much they "respect" it and their gone or create their escape plans…i actually care about this guy. He then said, if it was a problem to him, the rest of the conversation would be awkward and we still stayed on the phone for another 2 hrs. He’s still normal around me and to make me feel better, he suggested to stop w. the "sex talk" and if I feel okay to talk it out, then we would another time. He admitted that for him as a guy, his # of women (who he slept w.) is considered "low" for a guy. I asked if he was relived hearing about me and he said, "a bit but it really doesn’t matter". Anyhoo, things are fine but I can’t helpt but feel insecure…

I’m not pressured to do anything w. him….but opening up that virgin confeeision made me get insecure. How can I rebound back and stop being insecure about it?
He’s a "shy guy" type btw…if that helps…and the # of girls he’s slept w? you can count in one hand and it’s been w. his serious, long term gf’s…i’ve got a good guy

It’s just that I want other opinions, because they market this stuff to seem like its a sure fire way to get her back. Smoke and mirrors or do you have experiences that can help better than their advice does. Looking for honest answers please. (Do a Google search on "How Do I Get My Ex Girlfriend Back? …Number one relationship killer) and let me know what you think.

117- year- old girl falls for her 30 year- old teacher. After waiting for perfect timing, they both pursued each other and became involved. She was her parents only child, golden child, straight A’s and good in sports. She had the perfect family until her little sister
was killed by a drunk driver or was murdered. She was all her family had left and her loss made her weak and uncomfortable in her own skin. She has flashbacks from when her and her little sister were little. She died when the protagonist was only 10. After 7 years of coping and coming to grips with herself, she falls in love with her handsome new physics teacher. She realizes that through her tough experiences when she was younger, she’s too mature for any high school jock. They start to have a physical and strong emotional relationship. Once their relationship gets more serious, her teacher wonders why she hasn’t told her parents about their relationship. She knows they would forbid it and hate her for it, esp. not saving her virginity till marriage. They are a strong Christian family with many values. She promises that she will tell them soon but when she gets pregnant plans change and she finds herself in a tangled web of trouble. She couldn’t bare the disappointment from her family and even herself. A baby would ruin her life plans. She knows her boyfriend would do anything for her but she couldn’t live with the pain inside. She commits suicide and leaves her lover a note. Her family and lover come together in the end and grieve. Her parents go to her grave in the end and give her peace and rest her soul.

My ex and I broke up exactly a year and a half ago and haven’t talked since last May, but I’m really interested in talking to her again and trying to get back together.
And I know she’d be willing to, I’m just wondering if it’s ever worked for anyone.

We broke up due to stress and anxiety about being in a relationship, at least on her part. I don’t know if anything’s changed, but told me she was willing to get back together months after we broke up.

What are your experiences? How did you do it?

I am San, from princess mononoke for halloween this year. I have the entire costume except the mask. I would like to know any tips about making her mask, And the ears! or mask experiences you have had that would be of help.(2 pics of the mask: http://www.bbc.co.uk/blast/showcase/submitted/images/gallery/12079329082844329206_1.jpg

I am planning to use a hockey mask as the base(i hate wire) with the nose sanded off.. Hockey mask pic: http://www.garmentdistrict.com/store/party/costume/masks/character/hockey.jpg

After that i was going to use paperclay, however everyone said that was stupid, and i should use crayola model magic(CMM) to make the mask, however; here is my delima that i could really use tips on. Last time i used CMM any separate peices i made and attached to the body, fell off! And im scared that that will happen again! I plan to use some rubber sement between the model magic and mask to make sure, and it will be wrapped around the edges of the mask. But what about the eye peices? SHould i try to do it all with one peice of CMM?

Also, model magic, seems to get hard FAST and i dont know if i will have the mask done by the time it starts to dry! Im affraid i will be shaping the eyes and it will get to hard. Please if you have any sugestions! I would like to do the first part of the mask, and then do the eyes separately, but then the falling off thing! HELP! I really need to this to work!

Next is the ears. The cape of her costume is separate, but i plan on attaching a peice of the fur to the mask and then that fur to the cape, however i need to attach the ears somehow so they are VERY secure and stick up. Suggestions?

Lastly, any suggesting on how to attach the mask to the fur?

THanks again!

I picked up this book called ‘How to get Your Lover Back’ after reading reviews for it online. Not only because I would love a second shot with my ex, but also because it seemed like it would have healthy advice for any future relationships. I broke up with a gf of 6 years about 4 mos ago. The first 5 years were amazing and came so naturally. We traveled around the world and got along like 2 happy peas in a happy pod. Anyways, the last year got difficult because we both became stubborn and got into stupid fights when she moved an hour away to start grad school.It ended on friendly terms and we still talk and hang out every now and then.The book argues that you need to meet up with your ex as much as possible without being needy.By creating positive moments/shared experiences and not bringing up needy or jealous thoughts, you just ‘love 100%’.kind of hokey.He argues that if you both were genuinely in love at one point, then that can always be revived if u go back to the basics.thoughts?

I’m just wondering what it is like when your significant other returned from their first deployment?
How were they changed? What problems did you face? Was it stressful and exciting at the same time? Did it take a relatively short or long amount of time to get to "know" eachother again?
I refuse to believe that’s it’s all rainbows and butterflies when someobody who has been gone for several months returns and everyone’s life is expected to go back to normal. I want real experiences…I know this all depends on each individual relationship and other circumstances.

My husband’s last relationship ended in 1998, we started dating in 2000 and got married in 2004. Our son was born in 2006.

My husband is an adventurous person, he has a big passion for mountains and the outdoors. I don’t share that passion, but I am ok with him going on climbing, hikes and other adventures. I am a simple person that has a passion for her family, I love my son and husband and love caring for them. My husband also has a passion for his football team, which I’m completely involved in this with him, we go to games together, watch the games on TV, dress in the team’s colors and apparel, etc.

My husband contacted his ex and saw her last July, he said they needed closure and they talked about their past relationship; my husband said he wanted to improve our marriage getting input from his ex about what he has done wrong in their relationship, if he was selfish about doing stuff that he likes to do and not stuff the other person wants to do. She loves trail running and loves the mountains as well, they met again in August to go over some maps and routes they have explored, but they also reminisced about their past experiences who got my husband confused (I read this in an email), he saw her again in September (I never knew he was seeing her at this point, he lied to me).

A few days after their last encounter my husband told me he had been in touch with her and that he needed to tell me because he felt terrible lying to me. He told me that they’re only friends and that they are going to keep that friendship. His ex said that he would not see him if he didn’t tell me that he was going to hang out with her, so he did, only because she asked him. When he told me all of this, I was very confused and felt betrayed because he had lied to me. He said he wanted to see her and go hiking with her and talk about mountains and hang out and also go have a beer from time to time.

I trusted my husband more than any other wife would trust his man (I really trusted him with all my heart), but after this he broke down years of trust, his email has no password on his computer and I usually helped him do business on his email before, so I went and checked his email and didn’t like what I found. There wasn’t really anything that talked about sex, but the way they wrote to each other really made me feel uncomfortable. He mentioned in one of this emails that his heart had been rattled. I told him I saw those emails and offered to set him free so he could be friends with anybody he wanted. I told him I wasn’t going to ask him to drop his friendship, because I am not the person that would do that, but that I would divorce him so he can follow his heart and passion for his mountains with her. He got mad at he and after days and weeks of talking he told me he wasn’t going to talk to her or see her again, which seems true at this point.

I emailed his ex and told her that I didn’t feel comfortable with their friendship, because it had the big potential of becoming an affair if they spend a lot of time together and that could damage our marriage forever, I read something online about Emotional Affairs and it seems that this is exactly what happened between them, but I believe they never slept together while they saw each other these 3 times.

My husband and I seem ok now, we’ve gone through some health issues at this point and haven’t talked about this issue for a couple of weeks, but we did almost every day for a month.

I want to improve our marriage, but I can’t go mountain climbing because it isn’t my thing. We used to enjoy white water rafting before, but since we flipped twice on a trip, I really got scared and he keeps telling me that he misses our trips together, but I often have nightmares about flipping and wake up very scared. Things changed a lot after we had our son, I used to work at home with him (he works from home) but with the economy problems I have working out of the house for 1 ½ years, I work 40 hours a week, have a lot of chores and responsibilities and he says that I don’t have enough time for him sometimes, that I don’t pay attention to his needs. I personally think he is selfish about this, because he gets to enjoy many outdoor things while I stay home taking care of our son and cleaning the house during the weekend while he is out having fun.

Please I need everybody’s opinion and advise on this.

My ex and I broke up over a month ago. We were together for over a year. He says he doesn’t want to get back together, but in my gut I feel like it is just not over yet. Is is possible that we will ever get back together? Has anyone ever been in a similar situation like this, where you ex says he doesn’t want to get back together but you just really feel in your gut like you should? Did it work out in the end? Let me know your experiences.
