Honestly, he was pretty much as good a sport in this circumstance as someone can be. It doesn’t sound like he felt entitled to have sex with you. As you say he was confused by your sudden rejection and obviously bothered that your feelings for your ex were so strong (because he kept asking if you were really over it…

Relentless is the right word. They always seem to want you when you are busy with something personal or important or dangerous. Like I was trying to clean the cat litter yesterday and my 2 year old wont leave me alone and is basically demanding that I hold him or play with him, he kept repeating “Mama, I want you” “ I…

no, her sister is there to highlight how Americanized Meghan has become. Her sister is emblematic of what Quebec society was like in the 1960s, suggesting she could get an annulment, scandalized by her mother, ie: decades behind.

People keep talking about doctor’s pushing for unnecessary c-sections, but my question is how many patients really know enough to adequately judge whether the doctor is erring too far on the side of caution? The idea that you need to have an emergency situation before considering a c-section is a dangerous one. Most…

Don't go to grad school. The job market sucks. The hoops you have to jump through will be arduous and pointless. Unless your ideal goal is to become a professor and bear in mind that there are no jobs, grad school is a waste of money and time. Don't put your life on hold for 5-7 years for a PhD.

I was buying a minivan with my husband and we were trying to take out the second row seats. The salesperson was insisting it was super easy, but he forgot the steps of how to do it, so he struggles - pushing it forward, tilting it, pushing it back in place. I remember my Dad's minivan and you have to fold the seat in…

Hear hear! I also didn't believe I should have to throw away my hopes and dreams because of my partner's mistake. My partner and I stayed together and we are very happy that we did. While I still think about what happened everyday (it's in the back of my mind all the time) it no longer hurts. I think the expectation…

hjjj

Hats off to you! I also stayed with my wayward spouse and I don't regret it. The way I see it is that I did nothing wrong. So if he's willing to take a long hard look at himself and get his shit together and treat me the way he should, then I'm capable of forgiveness. I'm also working on my PhD and getting him to…

Ok, like most people I have a very long story to tell. Here's the highlights:

Right, and you need people on both sides observing so that we don't create other inequalities in the process. But most people are really not very good observers and but it's the job most people try to take because you can claim to be doing a lot while doing nothing at all.

Isn't doing what you can all that you can do? It seems to me that you're an ally if you advance the cause for equality and reparations and not an ally if you don't. Some people might never accept your presence, some people might believe that you cannot help no matter what you do. But you don't need to win everyone…

The fear of becoming a "good white person" is not an excuse not to share this article. Sometimes you are cannot be anything but a "good white person" because there is nothing else you can do in that role and you have to live with the discomfort of people questioning your intentions and your ethics and your presence.…

I usually say something cheesy like, hopefully the worst is already behind you and things will get better from here on out. Which I hope allows people to share as little or as much as they feel comfortable with. If it's a close friend I usually just express support, what can I do, etc

there is a better answer.

That's a cute graphic, but yes, I never say that sentence (or any of those on that sheet) because I have really never seen it apply in any substantial way until you posted.

But Mexico is not the North end of South America, it's the South end of North America. Also, many illegal immigrants arrive legally, however, they fall through the cracks of the bureaucratic system: they miss hearings to review their cases because they are working, they moved and the courts don't have their current…

Actually, there appears to be a very early shift towards viewing abortion and Fetucide as more serious a crime Christianity than in Judaism. The Greek Septuagint (which is the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible which is the translation used by Christians both in the 1st century CE and today) interpreted the fine…

Christianity and Judaism base their ethical frameworks on much more than the Bible. As you probably know, the Talmud isn't in the Bible. It's a commentary on another set of texts called the Mishnah. Religious teachings in Christianity similarly come from sources other than the Bible, including the writings of early…

I went on a massive search to find this old video, but it is still awesome. THIS is twerking, it's obviously just more than shaking your butt or making it jiggle.
