    My doctor has recently prescribed me with the Dianette pill to take - but I'm a bit worried having read a variety of reviews on it's various effects. Does anyone have any personal experiences with this they could tell me about? It's hard to trust everything you read online! Thanks

    I think that most men (and in fact women to in other ways) will refer to women in a semi-derogatory way jokingly - but there's nothing to be read in to this unless it goes beyond calling 'the wife a nag' etc. And his friend missing the companionship of your boyfriend when going out is very common - single people always hate their single friends finally finding a partner, but as soon as it happens to them they couldn't care less! But even though those things are very common - if they really bother you still, mention it to him. Communication and not letting things become much worse is essential in a functioning relationship. As for your last bit - that just sounds like outright arrogance, you can either say something to him if it annoys you or makes you uncomfortable, or perhaps may have to accept that is him. It is more likely, however, that he is doing this to make himself feel better/superior, perhaps low self-esteem, so challenge him on him saying those comments - but not on him having low self-esteem (he'll only get defensive!

    And now we're all a bit confused! ;-) It seems to be that both of you are in the wrong circumstances, and if things were to change then you could perhaps give it a shot. If you'd both rather be together than with your boyfriends - no matter how nice they are or how well they treat you - then it's unfair (on them and you) to not follow your hearts. But don't forget everyone has fleeting fancies, you're both still young and it's normal to have feelings for someone you're close to, but don't lose something that is important to you if you're not fully sure.

    Something else! .. Girls tend to look more mature for their age - and seeing an 18 year old (who'd probably look early 20's anyway) with a mid-20's guy is not something you'd even look twice for.

    InNeedOfHelpxx - are you sure that the age is the only problem here? As it genuinely is not a problem in the eyes of most people these days, or any days in fact. Actually an older man is quite common! Have you got issues with having met through family? Or are you 'too compatible'? Scared of ruining the 'perfect friendship'? (Which is almost invariably the friendship which should be relationship but doesn't go there, avoiding the inevitable relationship tiffs!!). If you're really in to this guy - and he is back - don't miss the chance over something that in a few years time you'd regret deeply. And to add another statistic - my parents are 6 years apart, married at 18+25, kids at 19 - it's not in the slightest bit unusual

    About getting you made to start 'the talk' - perhaps. Or maybe she just genuinely had things to do - particularly at this point in the relationship (and really for good - but we do get complacent) don't feel that you rule her life or know it inside out; don't second guess her when she tells you something, you'll drive both of you made and only argue... So - is the issue here that she's a Christian and wants to consider a long-term relationship with a Christian only, or is it about sex before marriage? If it's sex before marriage, then many people believe strongly about that and it's perfectly fair and something to be respected - if she's worth it that won't be an issue. If it's that she wants a long-term relationship with a Christian, then you both need to talk about that; you don't have to be an actual Christian to respect their beliefs and systems, and fit perfectly well in to a Christian relationship, and it's old fashioned to think otherwise.

    That's crazy - there's no problem here! At 18 a 7 year difference is fine! (Unless he's 11.... that's not fine ) Don't listen to people who say otherwise - it's about who you both are, not how old you are. If it had been three years ago, that would be been somewhat different - especially with our society and culture - but at 18, especially having had three years to get to know each other, you've got to work out if the real issues (not age related - just difference in your lives) are compatible and if he's worth pursuing... So good luck!!

    I think the best thing to do is just not to 'pursue' her - it could be a bit intimidating for her, especially if you've not known each other long. Give things time - but don't focus on her, because it'll be obvious! It could be that she just doesn't like you 'like that' and likes you (from the sounds of it a lot) as friends - or perhaps because she felt put on the spot she was embarrassed. Time will show if she likes you - and if not, at least you haven't put yourself on the line and made you both feel uncomfortable about it

    Give her space - if you don't want to be with her then just let the dust settle and see where you are in a few weeks or longer. If she's got a problem then she can come to you with it - otherwise she'll probably feel better about being friends with each other when things have had time to settle..

    Hey there, Firstly - I think you have to consider the way he's reacting to things you've done. He could be totally straight - and very comfortable with that - and so has no issues with being touched by another guy. Many guys find this uncomfortable but some are completely fine (just like girls). So, you could be reading too much in to that. As you're clearly interested in him, you'll also be looking for these signs where they may or may not exist - a simple touch from him could send your mind off thinking that it was intentional, a signal, etc etc... But, there's one real way to find out - simply tell him about your sexuality (that you're bi-curious) - and don't ask him about his! It's not your place to ask him, but if he is bi/curious/gay then he'll surely say. If not, and he's not cool with it, then that's another issue and I doubt he'd react badly - but don't be heavy with it if you were to tell him, it's not a big deal if you don't make it one - and it could reveal how he feels about everything!

    I honestly think they're just trying to get to know you. Its a thing men share a common interest in They probably find it weird you just leave and don't ask them a bit about themselves.
  12. Katerimo
    I don't think they think your homosexual! LOL They're just making conversation. Its just chit chat to get to know you I should imagine, have you asked them anything back to show an interest in them? Or maybe they all like you and want to find out if you're taken?!
  13. Katerimo
    what about quorn?
  14. Katerimo
    I acknowledge it. Whatever your issues (and we all have them) you have to live with them and work on them. You can't just click your fingers and change. What I was attempting to do was build confidence by saying being shy isn't so bad and the less you label yourself as shy and the less you think about it, the more confident you will become!

    Get a cross trainer, they're very useful for a non weight bearing all over exercise - very good for losing weight! Make sure you alternate it with other exercise to challenge yourself though but they are great, same effect as going for a jog but a lot easier!

    Go to the doctor get tested for ploycystic ovary syndrome. If you have irregular periods and darker hairs on your face that's what it might be.

    I'd also comment some of the shyest people on my course are the most popular. A good mix of introverts and extroverts make for the most diverse group of friends that compliment each other. School seems to be a lot worse for the shy person than uni!
  18. Katerimo
    I'm in university and although i'm shy I got top marks for a big presentation, I did better than the most outgoing people in my class. Shyness is only a disability if you let it be.

    I'm not too sure what's going on here but that sounds like a lovely gesture to me There's nothing wrong with being romantic as long as you're doing because you want too not because you think you should.

    Also being over sensitive. It's good to show some sensitivity don't get me wrong but not too much.. One guy I knew went on and on about his stomach disorder and how it got worse when he was stressed. He thought he was being open and cool but it really put me off him!
  21. Katerimo
    True but I'd like to believe it
  22. Katerimo
    You have re-motivated me poloplayer, thank you!

    I read it in 'The Times' UK as a feature several months ago. I wasn't exact with the facts but it read something along those lines.
  24. Katerimo
    Yeah spy on her, but in a non stalkery fashion
  25. Katerimo
    PS- Its been proven that shy people are generally much more intelligent and persceptive than outgoing people. Something to do with more developed parts of the brain...
