A pillow or blanket between you and the wand helps. Also, try getting sensations that are nearby, rather than directly on your clitoris. Like vibrate your pubic bone.

You clearly have expectations of what marriage and his role in it should be, but it doesn't sound like you've shared those with him. It can be scary because you're opening the lid on a box of negative things that aren't fun to talk about, and maybe make you feel like the bad guy. But being open about what you expect…

You might try meeting new people based on a shared interest that isn't drinking. For instance, I play board games and role-playing games. I also like to knit, take life-drawing classes, etc. Then when you get together with your new friends, even if they do drink you just say that you don't and leave it at that. My…

When I was in high school, a bunch of friends played Diplomacy in their social studies class. I was not present, but my friend Meg still —24 years later!— holds a grudge about the betrayal she suffered in that game when a treaty was broken. I wish I had been there.

Yes. Yes you should. It will take you about 10 seconds to get into it this time.

How did it go? Did you use any of the article suggestions to good/bad/hilarious effect?

Great. Now I get another round of awesome wedding pictures to sob over. Can all the states just get on board with equality at once so that I can do my joyful sobbing all in on go, please?!

My ex sometimes tells random people that he was a Marine sharpshooter. I think he gets a thrill out of the lie itself. For other people it is the short term sympathy, and they don't think about the long-term consequences.

Weird = intelligent

When I was 18 I moved in with my high school sweetheart, Rob. We had moved in together even though he didn't have a job, but he kept promising to rectify that. I wanted to marry him, but he didn't feel ready since he didn't have a job. He proposed to me the same day that he decided to join the Marine Corps. His best…

I think taken away by shadowy government agents would be appropriate to his conspiracy theories. Or swallowed by a subterranean reptile.

According to my internet research, it was at the 2013 Women's Media Awards last night.

In general that is true, but Tennessee and California have laws regarding rape by fraud/deception, as does Israel.

Mine too! When I was a kid, my parents took us kids to a tunnel in the mountains and told us that that was where we were going to eat powdered food and shit in buckets when the bombs dropped. My dad even bought a rifle, which my mom would not let him take out of the box. When they finally split up about 20 years…

I have read their financial report and the amount of money actually spent in recent years is a very small fraction of the total taken in.

My ten-year-old son just told me that he is trying to figure out if he might be gay. He has a crush on a boy in his class. I told him that he doesn't have to figure everything out yet, but that I love him no matter what. He was happy to hear that and a bit teary.

I remember that the vaccine was in short supply a few years ago, but I haven't heard that about this year's strain. You can ask your pharmacist or doctor for better information. But even if it is short supply then it seems that people who are in contact with large segments of the population should get it, and in my…

'Suprise' is that feeling that you get when your dinner starts to make its way up your esophagus.

This is slightly off-topic, but I think this is a good reminder to get a flu shot. The flu kills more people than whooping cough annually because more people are vaccinated against whooping cough. I got my flu shot two weeks ago, and I didn't feel a thing. My son (who is scared of shots) got his and was amazed at how…
