Pete, its really not nice of you to steal my boyfriend's mom's winter boots!

@G.O.B.stopper: I didn't even need to see the picture. Reading his articles was enough for me to know he had a neck beard. :P

I actually agree with this. My first relationship ended spectacularly badly (think "to catch a predator"- yeah, that bad)and even though, years later, I know its not my fault for falling in love with someone who ended up being the worst sort of person, I HATE myself for being so stupidly, pathetically, obviously,…

@shellybean: Oh and I got it on sale for $30. So awesome!

The bridesmaid dress I bought off of Jcrew for a friend's upcoming wedding is actually something I would wear again. (As opposed to any other bridesmaid dress I've had- prior to this the highest praise I could give to a bridesmaids dress was "I can probably cut this up and sew up something for Halloween.) In fact, my…

@LoveNoelG: Not necessarily! Mine is wash, dry (5 min.) and go (I flat iron it for dressy occasions)- although the cut itself is really expensive (I have a lot of cowlicks that must be tamed and the guy who can actually do something with my hair is unfortunately pricey). But my hair is very fine and tangly, so when it…

I love my short hair, although I don't consider it to be very short- it's nearly chin length in the front. (THe only downside is that my neck gets cold.) I would love to have a pixie, but it would make the bf sad. He seems okay with short hair as long as its not a "boy cut." He tends to complain now when I tuck my…

@redhairedstepchild: I did feel a little dirty reading this post. Not having watched the show, I guess the point is that they are supposed to be rich. But still, I hate the idea of judging people by their financial situations, especially in this economy.

Best. Post. Ever

#2 is the only one I like. Although, maybe you could belt it to further show off your tiny waist.

Funny. One of the first things my therapist suggested was to stop reading lady mags. :) It did wonders for my body issues!

I was hinting around for jewelry on my birthday and the bf was like "Look. I can get you earrings or something; or I can get you something that I think you'd like so much more."

Such a tragedy. It reminds me of when you hear about guys dying during/after their bachelor parties. So upsetting.

Clearly, the man[son] has a type.

@JerseyGrrrl: I hope it does come in as a body ideal. I'll be set!

@Archetype: This makes me feel so much better about my .84 hip to waist ratio. I am a cylinder with boobs. I always thought that it basically doomed me to a life time of never finding jeans that fit and a higher risk of heart disease and cancer. At least this way I can say "Oh yeah well it may be evolutionarily…

@nur1: However, the grab and kiss will make the nuns yell at you if they see you do it, even if he started it!

If someone had told teenage Shellybean that abstinence meant no kissing, she would have stormed out of the classroom yelling "Fuck this shit!"

@raphaela: and that's just another way for them to chastise their women for having a sex drive, even after marriage!

I love him so much!
