However, I feel that they would have told the family the truth once the lawyer got involved. Yes, it's embarrassing to tell the family that, but it's easier than going to court over the investigation.

I started sobbing during this. Just sobbing. I'm away from home for a long time for the first time (college) and I miss my own dogs more than anything...

Wait, so, this is a black lipstick? That somehow looks good and *natural* on everyone? What? Or does it just look black in the tube and magically change color, like some other products do?

No, I don't think it's too much to wish that he'd officially leave his wife, since he's already basically left her. He has a daughter with someone else (it sounds like you two are having an affair and she knows it?), he's doing extra work to support you, etc.

From a person who used to be the person in love with their friend who only loved them platonically and had two years of her life sucked away: Stop. Just stop. You need to break off close contact with him, because he won't have the strength to do it himself, especially because you keep "unintentionally" misleading him.…

I want to see this too! Those are two of my favorite things.

I am going to make a collage of these! Also, something involving an anteater discussing fine cheese with a badger...?

I think you have a very reasonable viewpoint on this situation. While he clearly acted badly and the relationship was very inappropriate, most evidence points to the fact that she *did* want a relationship at first. Later on it became coerced, but it sounds like she was interested in him in the beginning. I agree…

I don't think that the conversations I've personally have had about race have been about me trying to prove I'm not racist (I'm white, and I could very easily be wrong), but I see why that phenomenon could happen.

Hi! I know I'm not the original poster, but I'm going through the same process. I live in the D.C. area (Maryland side), and am a 34B. However, my breasts tend to look very pointy in bras without padding, and bras tend to gape right at the opening. (A-cups are always way too small for me, and every single time I've…

Um. This sounds more healthy than a chocolate muffin, a frappucino, or other pastries. I don't see the issue as long as it's not an every day breakfast. However, I love cream of wheat, but cream of wheat with ice cream on top? Does not sound delicious.

It's one of the most delicious breakfasts (and every meals) ever. I just hearted everyone who likes Cream of Wheat!

I actually think that look is very flattering, especially if you're slim-hipped and carry your weight in the stomach area instead (like with me). It looks like it's skimming your hips, so it looks like the volume is just that, added volume, while also making your waist look smaller.

Ah, I agree with you about 11! That's why I always liked 11 so much...it felt different than the rest of the odd numbers :).

I don't know why it is, but odd numbers are *definitely* masculine in my mind, and even numbers are *definitely* feminine. I've always had a slight preference for even numbers, but there are some odd ones I like a lot, too, like 3, 9, and 11.

To be fair, some of them don't support the death penalty, torture, and war. Others have even shielded the people going to funerals from the Westboro Baptist Church (who are not an accurate sample of most anti-abortionists). No doubt that some of them are hypocrites and support these things, but a good amount of them…

Bah, thank you for that! I somehow missed that part, and saw the last section where it said "nearby Germantown." Thanks!

Although, this didn't happen in D.C., this happened in Germantown. Germantown is far enough away that I doubt the programs for D.C. teens affect the Germantown ones.

I was talking to a police officer (I live in a suburb of D.C. that's considering also imposing the curfew) and he basically admitted to profiling. He said that they only enforced it when a group of teens looked like they'd make trouble, and left the "good" ones alone. However, I've had friends who've been picked up…

Exactly! Germantown is closer to rural Maryland than D.C. They're not the same at all.
