Californian here. It cost $80 at CVS when I bought it for a male friend.

Thank you so much for this! I actually never heard this before but I will definitely give it a try! =)

I am the same. It's really hard to step away sometimes especially when you really want to make an attempt to resolve things then and there. I'm just gonna have to get better at fixing it right away or just walking away.

That's true and it makes me feel better hearing that. Now I'm just trying to keep myself from jumping back onto OkCupid and finding someone else. I definitely need some time to ponder for now.

I just stopped seeing a guy I met on OkCupid and I'm kinda sad. I realize that I still need some growing up to do. I have a hard time controlling my emotions when I'm angry and I realize that instead of calming down and talking things out, I just let it take over. It was basically decided after I hung up on him (haha)…

I started my account on OKCupid a few weeks ago and have so far only met one decent guy on there. For the most part, my experience has been the same as yours.

Thanks everyone for the input! You guys have helped me greatly with my decision and have even given me a few ideas on how to sneakily get away with not changing my name as well ;) I decided that I'm going to keep seeing him because we get along so well otherwise. He definitely acknowledged that it's unfair that girls…

So, before reading the article, Why are we still taking our husbands' last names, I was pretty much set on never changing my last name when I get married. I've only been on two dates with this guy but I already found out that he wants his future wife to take his last name. He agrees that it makes no sense yet still…

PEOPLE do not ever change that easily. The fact that he believes he can physically put his hands on you and emotionally abuse you is learned behavior that is very hard to unlearn in a mere 1 1/2 weeks. If he really wants to change, you should have absolutely nothing to do with it, he has to do it on his own.

Wow that's a big jump in retention. Currently, I am literally reading word for word and I find my mind wanders more as well. I will give it a try on my own and see how it goes. Thanks!

I've never learned the art of scanning but I guess I have no choice. It's either learn to scan or die of exhaustion.

Started my first semester in the MSW program a month ago and I am overwhelmed by how much writing and reading is involved. I'm so tired.

I find that incredibly annoying and totally judgmental. I had a friend ask me if I currently had a boyfriend to which I replied no. Her reaction, "Awww...." Yea...I don't need your pity. I am not the one who's married to a man I can't stand.

Wow that's so great. I was unaware of the language making a comeback. It gives me hope in possibly using this language on SOMEONE. I should move to Taiwan then maybe I'd actually get some job callbacks. And I will definitely find that movie and watch it. Even if it sucks, I'll just be so happy to finally watch a…

I found your comment very interesting so it wasn't entirely useless =)

Signed on just to heart you for this comment. There is absolutely nothing wrong with crying. Crying does not mean you're weak; it means you're a human being with emotions.

Tips for buying jewelry:

Good choice in wedding rings, tungsten is very affordable and scratch resistant. Only downside to tungsten is that if you drop it, it might shatter. Like break into three pieces. So be gentle!

I don't know how to run a dishwasher because I've never had a dishwasher. I've always manually washed all my dishes. Also, I hang dry all of my clothes because I've never had a dryer. Is being poor an excuse for not knowing how to run these machines? =)

I used to work in a jewelry store and part of the job was cleaning people's jewelry. Once a guy handed me his ring to clean and there was this green layer of I don't know what in his ring. I almost threw up.
