Yeah, excessive attachment to parents at that age is a pretty major red flag. Usually means they’ll be overly dependent or their parents will be a major factor in your life. Some people are okay with it, but if you and potential mum-in-law/dad-in-law don’t see eye to eye, you’re in for a bad time.
1. Negging and backhanded compliments. That’s an instant sign that they’re trying to gain the upper hand by trying to break down my self-esteem, and a pretty good red flag for a potential emotionally abusive relationship.
2. Focusing on the negative. That sort of thing gets old fast, drags you down emotionally over…
My favorite creamer for coffee is sweetened condensed milk. Just a spoonful or two, and my coffee has cream and sweetener in the perfect amount!
Quick tip: some phones come with Google Now's "Ok Google" command, but it's off by default. You can usually find the option to enable it under Settings > Language and Keyboard > Voice Search > Ok Google Detection.
All that twine looks time-consuming, but I bet you could get great results with ribbon! And there are enough kinds, colors, and patterns of ribbon that you can match it to most decors.
Thanks, Lifehacker! These tips and tricks are just what I use every day to keep my forgetful life from falling to pieces.
I've tried using Meetup to meet people. You'd think in a city as large as Chicago, I might be able to find some groups that do gaming or arts/crafts stuff on weekends. NOPE. For some reason, everything is scheduled on Tuesdays or Thursdays. And anything "singles" themed is crazy expensive.

When I was married and it was just me and my husband for Thanksgiving, we discovered that a turkey breast cooked in a slow cooker in gravy makes the most delicious, fall-apart Thanksgiving turkey EVER. You just cook regular brown gravy extra thick, then pour it into the slow cooker, add turkey breast, and cook…
Somehow I think I'd feel less embarrassed flashing a store sales clerk whose job it is to measure women's chests, than I would walking around a store with a giant plaster cast of my naked bosom.
Wow. That's a pretty eye-opening comparison of brand sizes. It's a shame they only have those specific brands, the only ones I'd heard of before are Banana Republic and Gap (both of which run stupidly narrow in size variation).
So true. It's hard to remember that when you meet someone online and you build a relationship with them, a LOT of what goes on is in your own head. And since we all want to be happy, you wind up filling in the blanks with things that make you happy, and you trick yourself into being happy with that person. The…
Good idea. One of the great things about alternating who goes where is it gives you both the chance to scope out the neighborhood a bit, too. While you're out about town having dates and spending time together, you can also learn things about the climate, costs of living, neighborhoods, crime rate, scenery, and all…
Sure! Actually my long-distance boyfriend and I have regular movie nights. Here's what we do:
We both have Netflix, and we talk over Skype. He listens on his computer speakers, and I listen on my headset, so he can't hear my movie but I can hear his. At the beginning of the movie (it's a bit awkward but totally…
Something I've learned in my long-distance relationships: When things get tough, keep in touch. Sometimes it gets difficult, and you just want to withdraw to take care of yourself and get away from the emotional distress of having someone you want to be close to but who is out of your reach. And that's okay. But…
I got one of their drawing tablets as a cheap travel art tablet, so I wouldn't run the risk of damaging or losing my $500 Wacom when I go on trips to conventions and such. For ~$30, I got a tablet that I would absolutely recommend to any beginning digital artist. I don't consider it better than my Wacom (but then, I…
This hack ought to come with a very strong warning. Hydrogen peroxide is poisonous, and you don't want to be accidentally swallowing it.
LifeHacker, how do you come up with these articles with such perfect timing?
The problem with "stronger" is alcohol doesn't freeze very well. You can try increasing the alcohol content, but you'll wind up with a slushie. You'll always have to dilute the alcohol with other freezable liquids to be able to freeze it into solid form.
