I was in the same situation and I tried to stick it out. I ended up in a terrible situation for 7 years, cycling through it over and over again. And even when he was *my* boyfriend, he was never mine. Because the eye kept looking. That thing you *know* you should do? Do it. And don't even have him contact you when he…

Can this be a live discussion thread? Please?

Is he 6 years old? Sorry, but the cold shoulder is not an acceptable way to behave in an adult relationship. I will sometimes say to my husband "I cannot discuss this issue right now, we will talk later" but I don't just ignore him and he knows why I am mad if I am mad. It's immature and meant to gaslight you into…

I...reacted the same way when I had a similar issue. I went to check the mail, was running back up my (concrete) stairs (in flip flops), and gorilla fell right on up them. Ripped my toenail half off, and WebMD said it can cause "permanent disfigurement." Called my Dad BAWLING and he came to take me to the ER.

Let her come to you a bit. Be welcoming when she approaches, make your movements slow and don't move suddenly. She'll come around! Treats will definitely help. I used to work in a shelter and we had lots of terrified cats, but they all pretty much wanted some lovin' - but each cat has their own terms! Personally, mine…

100 miles in a month (if a 30 day month) is just over 3 miles a day. Get yourself a pedometer and go ahead! I have the FitBit Zip - aim for 10k steps a day. 100 miles in a month sounds overwhelming but so isn't. I have a treadmill at home with a desk - Jezebel and walk at the same time! Highly recommend it if you have…

Most of the ones I've seen are for crockpots (dump the frozen stuff in the crockpot for the day). I love my crockpot. Things like meatballs and pasta sauces should freeze and keep very well.

Personally, I'd rather know BEFORE sexy times get started (or after they've concluded, for next time), then actually stopped in the middle of the activities and redirected. So I think if this happened to me, I'd feel the same way. I want to do what he likes, and absolutely tell me - but maybe not while I'm in the…

Hm, my doctor tests me for it every year (I have it) and it costs nothing extra. I got it from my husband, who disclosed he had it before we started having sex. He hasn't had any symptoms of anything from it, but I believe he was tested for it as well (after an ex had an abnormal pap due to HPV).

HPV spreads by skin-to-skin contact, so you don't even need to have sex to get it. Condoms MAY help but won't really prevent it, as skin still touches.

I follow him on Twitter and I just love him! I also remember writing him a letter in elementary school asking him if he read his letters and also to write me back AND my friend because we were both obsessed. He totally wrote us both letters! He just strikes me as very down to earth (surprisingly!). I read his adult…

They have a thing against Teletubbies, too, don't they?

My husband is allergic to cats. I also do not see pets as disposable. When he didnt stay here super regularly, he'd need a claritin, but now that he lives here, he rarely has any reaction unless the cat actually catches him with a claw. He's built up a resistance.

I couldn't believe I once had to explain that women have 3 holes - one for poop, one for periods, and one for peeing. To a 35-year-old man.

I'm not the best ambassador as I commute in for work from the burbs, so I dislike the city in general, BUT most people LOVE it, especially living in the city. I recommend the blog popville.com. I know they do a lot of happy hours for commenters to meet up and it might be a great way to meet people; supposedly they're…

I have a similar tough time with my husband's friends' wives/girlfriends. They are very nice to me, and I like them fine, but we're very different. I'm not super girly or "let's shop at Express" sized and I'm way more comfortable with the dudes than (most) of the ladies. Which sucks, because I'd like to be better…

Ugh, it sucks when it isn't your fault and you get saddled with the pain and expenses.

Seconded.

Agreed! I could actually get some (really great!) responses instead of radio silence. Back to the grays for me!

I don't clearly remember gURL, but I was way into ChickClick and spent hours on those boards. Learned sooo much there.
