  1. Fantastic, thanks a lot for your replies. I'm definitely going to get it done.
  2. I'm considering getting the coil fitted and was wondering if any of you with experience of this method of contraception could help answer a few questions: Can you feel it during sex? My partner and I enjoy, well, rough sex - he's quite large and can go very deep inside me. Is there any way this could mess with the IUD? Many thanks for reading
  3. I'm into wild sex. There, I said it. I like things that some girls might not like/find degrading, or some actions or practices that aren't conventional. I don't want my partner to get freaked out by what turns me on, but I don't know how to tell him what I want done to me, or what I'd like to do to him. I don't want him to think that I'm a freak, so how do I phrase what I want without coming off as one? Thanks!
  4. I had sex last week (he wore a condom, it split), and the next day took the emergency pill. It hasn't induced a period yet though. I'm a little worried because we had unprotected sex yesterday (I know, it's very very stupid and I really regret it) and I'm not sure if that pill from last week protects me or if I need to take a new one to cover this time. I'm having twinges in my lower stomach which makes me think that my period is on its way, but it's also got me freaking out that I'm pregnant! Rest assured, I'm having protected sex from now on! Hope someone can help, thanks for reading.
  5. My best friend has been depressed for the last four years and has only sought help in the last year. I thought he was getting better, he seemed to be. However, today he received his exam results for his degree and he didn't get what he wanted. To avoid trans-Atlantic confusion let's just say he wanted an A and got a B. He has dismissed this as 'average' and doesn't realise that he's done really well. He deserved and worked hard enough for an A and saw people who worked much less get As whilst he didn't, so he's really upset. I don't know how to cheer him up. What can you say when everything you say is dismissed?
  6. This is really encouraging to read, thank you. I've been battling a plethora of eating disorders for about eight years now, so it's always good to read inspiring messages about how people get over any episode of disordered eating. I hope I have the strength to do the same... tomorrow.
  7. I was dumped over a month ago by a guy I work with. We were together for about a month. Anyway, I've just seen him at work. I thought I'd do the grown up thing (and also find out all the more sooner if he wanted to get back together again) and approach him, so I did. He seemed pleased, gave me a peck on the cheek and told me to sit down and join him. We chatted for about 20 minutes, it was nice, joking around, no weird silences. I didn't refer to us or anything in the past. Anyway, he told me what his hours were this week but didn't invite himself to my office or invite me to come and see him. But then, as I was leaving, he stroked my arm. Not a mistaken touch, but an actual stroke. God, I don't know what this all means - should I read anything into this? I'm tempted to go back and tell him 'listen, if all you want is a bit of no-strings attached fun, I'll give you that'. Would that work?
  8. I got it too! 'You're such a wicked girl, I love spending time with you...,' blah blah. Talk is cheap. He said we'd be friends and he'd stay in contact with me. A month later and nothing. Good riddance sweetie.
  9. I have been in my job for nearly a year and have been managing two interns for the last five months. I am finding this very difficult. I do not know where to draw the line between being sweet and someone you get along with at work, and someone who you respect as your boss. It's got to the point where certainly one of the interns is encroaching on my space and asking ME if I've done things instead of me asking her what she has done! I want people to like me, so instead of making the working relationship between these two and myself professional but fun, I have made them my equals - a dangerous situation because recently I've been feeling that my boss wants to replace me with one of the interns. Both interns are older (one by five years, another by a year), so I also don't feel comfortable telling them what to do. I know I have noone to blame but myself, but I'm very keen to turn the tables and reassert myself. I just don't know how to do this! Any advice anyone could give would be really appreciated. Thanks so much.
  10. Yep, he should have switched it off. Don't feel bad, but go ahead and do something nice for him.
  11. I was only with him for a month, but my ex (somehow it doesn't feel right calling him that) said that he didn't have time for a relationship and didn't feel that he could be the man I wanted him to be. Whatever, I say
  12. Second everything lvlyldy said. If you were dumped there's nothing you can do about it until she contacts you. If you dumped her then I'd say that it depends on how long you've been broken up. I wouldn't jump into 'being friends' too quickly - it could lure her into a false sense of security (i.e you getting back together), and general confusion about where you guys stand. If my ex contacted me now I'd think 'he wants me back' when in fact all I could be headed for was a broken heart, again.
  13. Weekends are awful when you're going through a break up. They go from being the time that you look forward to every week, knowing that you're going to spend them with your partner, to being a really lonely three evenings with noone to be intimate with. I've had a rough couple of weekends recently, I feel your pain. There are ways around weeknights: staying at work extra (I'm working 12 hour days when I'm only getting paid to work 37 a week!), leaving work late so that I can just go home and go to sleep, meeting with friends for a post-work chat. But weekends feel like the remit of couples, and for some reason, even my non-coupled friends always have plans. Maybe forward plan meetings with friends? Go somewhere? I'm not very good at being on my own, so I'm using this new opportunity to force myself to like my own company. Maybe try a daytrip to another part of town/another city. Best of luck, a lot of us are going through this too so we're always here for support.
  14. Numbers may seem important, but they really aren't. I'd rather have one really great relationship compared to ten mediocre ones. It also depends on what you define as a relationship. I'm not even sure what it means for me. Is it the number of people you've kissed? Slept with? Told you 'loved'? Been with for longer than a day? Called your boy/girlfriend? I guess for me it'd be 1 real relationship, 3 pretty mediocre ones.
  15. Yeah, it is pretty irresponsible of him. He's 26! Whenever I've stayed at a boyfriend's house I was unbelievably polite from the outset, walking on eggshells for them. I would certainly never sleep on the sofa and leave their important and expensive entertainment gear unattended! Cut down on the Cody staying over for a while. As in, stop it. Give your parents a break. By all means, go to his place. Can't you stay over there? How far do you live from one another? I'm not sure what you meant by saying that you felt he wouldn't come over if he couldn't stay over. Doesn't that say something pretty telling about him? But yeah, give your parents a rest from him, tell Cody to make it up to your dad - a present should do it. Just explain to Cody that, it's alright for him because you don't stay over, but when he's at your place, and until you can get a place of your own, he needs to respect house rules. Could he help out a little more? Could you? You're not just running upstairs to get frisky are you? It's not a brothel! After a few weeks maybe reinstate him, but at a much lower frequency - weekend or something.
