Jennifer, you are in your forties, STOP dressing from the junior's section.

I got asked to prom at a freaking school assembly in front of the whole school (at a time when people did not do these things). It was mortifying.

Yes, you could tell he HATED every second of that. Amal, too.

I got an IUD in August, so I barely have a period any more. I have about 4 boxes of tampons to spare. Let me know where to ship 'em...I'm here for you ladies of Argentina!

You must not have been to the Midwest often. I've never attended a wedding where they did not do either of those things.

No to the bouquet toss, no to the garter toss, no to cake-cutting (and cake smashing). Why do people feel like these are things they HAVE to have (besides "tradition")?

Yeah, I remember my mom giving my oldest brother a book about sex when he was in the 4th or 5th grade, and giggling because I already knew all about that stuff, even though I was 3 years younger. Except nobody told me and I don't really know how/where/when it happened. I do remember my dad's ex-wife giving me a…

Okay, I'll share. When I was a kid (probably around 3 or 4, definitely before Kindergarten) I just assumed that babies where made when a Mommy and Daddy French Kissed. An angel in heaven sprinkled some baby dust on Dad's tongue, Mommy swallowed it, a baby grew in her stomach, and voila! Nobody told me this is the way…

I love their "Max" feature (where you take a survey and it pops up a suggestion), but I think it's only available through game consoles, which I don't have. I do use http://whatthehellshouldiwatchonnetflix.com/ often, but again, even using the search function to pull up a title isn't clear (especially if you don't…

That's like how I sometimes deliberately reach into the back of my cabinet to use a glass that hasn't seen the light of day for a while because I feel bad for it.

I threw mine away at 18 because I thought I had to, too. I didn't even like the guy, but somehow we were naked and drunk in a hot tub (ICK ICK ICK) and...it happened. Wasn't even into it, and stopped it because it got too hot and itchy from the jets. We dated for about a month after that, but we never did it again. I…

I deleted him on Facebook, so I have no idea what he's up to now, but I'm 100% sure he turned into one of those guys who's the typical "Friend-Zoned-Forever-"Nice"-guy" with no backbone.

Yikes.

Ugh, the guy I first did it with was such a simpering sad-sack. I was 18 and met him in one of my college classes. Seemed cool enough at first, and I had never casually dated any one before, so I figured, yeah, sure, I'll hang around you for a month or two, no big deal. NOPE. He ended up being really clingy and…

Fellow 26 weeker here! The ONLY reason I survived is because I started out with a twin, at some point said twin was miscarried, but their placenta stayed, so I was born with double the nutrients, and my lungs and heart had developed quicker than they might have with just one placenta. Out of my 5 siblings, I can…

Nearsighted preemie here who is bad at Algebra (Geometry was my jam...I was an artist. I liked drawing the shapes), but no other problems to speak of. I am very very lucky.

I was 2 lbs. Born at 26 weeks in '89. I won't even post my newborn baby pictures because they are...gruesome. I was very hairy. And thin. Kind of a hairier version of the Voldemort horcrux. A little like an underfed baby ape. In fact, my dad always used to joke that they let me go home when I was big enough to peel my…

Remember when Adidas sneakers were really popular in the late 90's-early 00's? I had a knock off pair that had 4 stripes instead of 3, and I will never forget the shame when someone pointed that out to me. Sorry about your shoes getting stolen, I hope those girls got hit by buses Mean Girls style.

I wasn't popular either, but I was friends with a lot of the girls who I would consider popular (ALL of my friends got voted for Senior Superlatives—"Most Likely to Succeed, Best Hair, ect." except for me...I was like their little invisible nerdy friend they kept as a pet) but nobody really ever cared about me.

I didn't have a miserable time in high school. At all. I wasn't necessarily in the "popular group" but I wasn't a dork either. I had a group of friends who kinds of floated to all groups. I was in AP classes, so I was friendly with the nerds and smart kids, all my friends played sports, so I hung around with the jocks…
