In order for any relationship to work, there has to be two things present: Shared values and equal investment. It just sounds to me like your guy isn’t anywhere near as invested in this relationship as you are. You deserve to have your needs met, as well, and it doesn’t sound like that’s going to magically start happening anytime soon.

Not being able to stand up for yourself against people who can control/manipulate you financially.

Wow, this looks really good! Definitely will be keeping an eye on this one!

No.

How’s that?

Claritin has been the only over-the-counter allergy medication that has consistently worked for me. It can be expensive, depending on where one buys it, though. The knock-offs do NOT work (at least not for me).

Most likely inappropriate sarcasm. Or an angry mob. What…I’m not a people person, okay??

Take a week. Avoid any social media, news, etc. as much as you possibly can. Try to get out in nature by going for short walks and just focus on doing things you enjoy (or try something new). Yes, the world keeps going - but you need to recharge your batteries, my friend. Take. A. Break.

I would say that a bathrobe worn backwards is more of a hospital gown.

I learned to avoid it, does that count?

And this will have the same effect that it has had for the last 30 years - that is to say, none at all.

Strangely, she’s never done it for me. Great actress, just…not physically appealing to me at all. I kind of wish they would have chosen someone else for that role, honestly. I’m probably the only one in the world who feels this way, but…there it is. :P

Best. Comment. Ever.

9th grade. Public school. Teacher opens the first class with “All penises are the same size” and “I don’t answer questions. That’s what your handouts are for”. I can’t for the life of me understand how my generation had such a high teenage pregnancy rate, can you?

What an embarrassment. How far this country has fallen. I’ve had issues with various politicians before, but this? This just makes me want to hide the fact that I’m an American.

Integrity.

West Wing has some fantastic acting from some really talented people. It’s definitely a guilty pleasure in that it paints a (very) idealistic portrait of modern politics and life in the White House as only Hollywood can provide. One can dream, right? :D

Probably LOTRO or Enshrouded.

Any of the Star Treks, the West Wing (because I love fantasy), Firefly, IT Crowd, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Garth Marenghi’s Dark Place…

Lately, I’ve really got into making sheet-pan dinners. Baked (and marinated) chicken breast surrounded by halved baby potatoes, broccoli, carrots and cauliflower with a little feta cheese sprinkled on after it comes out of the oven. Hearty and delicious! :)
