  1. Sounds like he is just rebounding right now. He is trying to use the internet as a venue to curb his pain. Not a very noble route to take. He isn't worth your time. I know the pain is great but each day will feel better, the body heals slowly but surely. Hugs, Rose
  2. Well in that case, since he sees her as a sister and she writes brother, I think you can be reassured they have a platonic relationship. I know it's hard to trust especially after what you had to deal with. But you are only hurting yourself by letting this get to you. I think your best approach right now is to write down your fears. Do you fear being cheating on? If so, how are you going to deal with that? What makes you believe that all men cheat? I think once you get to the cores of these questions, then you can truly heal and battle the little inner insecurities that we all have, but yours seem to be getting the most of you right now. Hugs, Rosee
  3. Hey shadow- I am sorry to hear you are going through pain dealing with your dog and past relationship. I wish I had some great words to take away your pain, However, I can tell you that the body does heal, even though it seems impossible right now. And each and every day will improve and get better, Even though you feel the loss of your pet as you must put her to sleep, She will always hold a special place in your heart, And with regards to your ex, consider it a blessing, Break ups happen for a reason, I wish I knew why, But it seems they keep us away from someone that wasn't meant for us. We are always here for you so hang in there and know that we truly care. Hugs, Rose
  4. I see a red flag here: Why is he telling/showing you how flirty he is with his female friends? Knowing that you have a rocky past, that is very inconsiderate of him. I would definitely confront him and tell him you do NOT want to play the jealousy games. You deserve far better than that. How can you trust? You need to get all these spiderwebs out first. You need to tell him to eliminate the games. Then watch his behavior and I think you will slowly learn to trust again. It's hard but with time and his appropriate behavior, you will allow yourself to. Hugs, Rose
  5. Hey LS- I can sympathize with you here. I went to undergrad at a university where I had many friends and I truly had the best time of my life. I have now continued on for further education and I cannot seem to relate so much to the students at my new university as they are competitive and hop from 1 bed to another. I just end up talking to all my friends back home instead. Maybe you can find more pasttimes and meet friends outside of school. I spend my free time outside of my school environment and there are times I eat alone, etc, but I just read while I eat. It's hard but definitely overcomeable. It's hard not to feel leftout but time flies and it will soon be over. A few days ago, I found out my friend here was talking behind my back, etc, and I felt hurt, and pulled away from people, because it's common here, but you know what, focus on school, that's what you are there for, and join clubs or extracurrics outside of school. Hugs, Rose
  6. Those pills aren't most likely legit otherwise all men would take them. During the whole excitment climatic phase, there are 2 nervous systems involved, the parasympathetic is involved in erection and the sympathetic in ejaculation. The parasympathetic nervous system is called our rest and digest nervous system and the sympathetic is the fight or flight system. So most likely, this medicine claims to increase blood flow to the penis region which allows for an increased erection, which would be related to your parasympathetic nervous system. Nitric oxide, a key component to viagra, also causes this type of dilation of the vessels to allow increased blood flow there. Now, here's the dilemma, the concept is great and all, but any of these type of ergogenic aids, over the counter, are NOT regulated by the FDA so they could include any ingredient they desire without telling the consumer. Remember phen phen and the heart problems that resulted, don't let that be you. If you need help in this area, then see your MD to diagnose the cause. Hugs, Rose
  7. It could be the pH can effect whether the sperm is able to travel up the vagina into the uterus and up to the ampula portion of the fallopian tube, where fertilization normally takes place. I think it's probably best instead to have emergency contraception on hand at home just in case all the time for that very reason. Interesting idea though .
  8. Thanks so much everyone. It really means a great deal to me so get so many loving and caring responses. I am trying so hard to stay focused but my feelings are clearly very hurt. I am trying to keep a straight face in the library, but it's hard. I wish I didn't have this added stress of cruel classmates in addition to my 18hrs of studying per day. I know I should just let it slide off and ignore it, but whenever criticism arises, I think it's hard not to take it to heart slightly. I just have never faced a situation quite like this one, especially from grown adults who are going into a profession to help others.
  9. Well, I told her that I was interested in him, she made that comment soon thereafter, and then they slept together. So how did I feel, betrayed beyond belief. But I thought it was a one time event until this other woman made a comment and then I was really offended. Then she gets mad at me for talking to him, yet I was interested in him first, and she slept with him. What an all around great situation. It makes me wonder about this. He then was upset when she slept with 4 guys after him within 1 week and she has a boyfriend back home. Too much drama. And she also added that I am short, when I am 5'5", which I thought was average. When I confronted her she admitted it and laughed and told me that she wouldn't be offended if someone said that about her because if she was ugly she would accept it.
  10. Thanks everyone so much for responding. Your comments made me feel so much better, because I felt so offended at hearing all these things. It was really quite painful. I wish I could have friends outside my program, but unfortunately we are isolated here and the only people I can interact with are my fellow students, and they are so caught up on how they are going to make 6 digit salaries and how great they are. We are in constant close proximity so I just get to hear their lovely comments. I am trying so hard to be as nice as I can to them despite their opinions, but it's really quite difficult. I just am trying to stay focused on school and ignore the drama but it's really too much. A great deal of the people that I know who came into the program have a bf or gf back home, and they have slept with 5+ people here while keeping their significant other back home unknowing of what's going on. It really is very disheartening and I refuse to be a part of that.
  11. I met a new guy and was interested in him and then he stopped talking to me. I was curious why and talked to his friend and his friend told me that one female student who happens to be a good friend of mine told him I am not a good catch in terms of attractiveness, so he listened to her and stopped pursuing me. I didn't believe she had said that and decided to confront her whereby she admitted to it. Then I was also told another female student said that I am ugly. I don't even know this other student personally. Let me add this is professional school and I would think that gossip like this wouldn't exist at this stage in our lives. My feelings are really hurt that people are judging me alone on looks, and being so biased and cruel. I have never dealt with a situation like this before and I am really disappointed. I am very nice to everyone that I meet so I just find it very saddening and immature that professional students would be so catty especially one that I considered a close friend.
  12. Like mentioned above, be sure to replenish electrolytes, so gatorade, powerade are very important right now. Electrolytes need to be replenished when vomiting. Take ibuprofen for your fever. Hope you feel better! Hugs, Rose
  13. Hey utopian- I am a rape survivor as well and I can relate to how you feel. I too boxed up my emotions and didn't deal with the rape until 3 years later as I was so busy with my education, didn't want anyone to know as I felt I had wronged, which is completely untrue. It's very important to work out your emotions and it's best with a trained rape counselor as they will help you resolve your feelings. I tried counseling, which I was very reluctant to do so, and it helped me immensely. The symptoms you feel are very normal, change in sleep patterns, anxiousness, but it's best to address the causes of each so you can heal. If you live in the US, there is free and fully confidential counseling, which worked really well for me. They also provide counseling via the phone if you don't want one on one counseling in person and prefer it over the phone, you never need to give your name, no one will know. You can also get free legal advice, support groups, a social worker, etc. Go to: link removed There are 600 rape crisis centers in the country. To find the counseling centers go to: link removed You can receive phone counseling at any hour of the day or night as well at: 1.800.656.HOPE • Free. Confidential. 24/7. You are definitely not alone in this process. It's hard to face your fears and overcome this but we back you up through the process. Hugs, Rose
  14. I think your manager would appreciate your honesty in asking. I would just say, I am really happy working here and I was wondering what the long term prospects of remaining in your company are. What are the guidelines to be promosted to senior engineer and what are areas I can work on to attain that position? Hope that helps. Hugs, Rose
  15. Exercise was my secret. It increases endorphins and makes you feel good during times of stress when you normally wouldn't. Even light exercise helps immensely. And we are here to help you along the way. Hugs, Rose
