Sorry to hear that. My Mom has always been a constant source of encouragement and compassion in my life. I'm not looking forward to the day I have to say goodbye.

I can relate, but it's just the way it is. My circle of friends is always evolving. I have maybe 3 friends that I'm close with that I've known most of my life, but that's it. I've lost 2 good friends to accidents, and drifted away from others for various reasons. Honestly though, I find...

I feel your pain. Had one of the same breed for 9 years. Together every day save for maybe 15 in that whole span of time. So many good memories.

This guy is waiting for some woman to come along and suddenly give his life meaning. What a sad way to live. The first thing he needs is a purpose. Does he not have nieces or nephews to be a good role model to? Are there no organizations in his community that could benefit from the time and...

Bud, I don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but practically every person alive on this planet (including myself) has had the same feeling. "If I could just figure out a quick easy way to make a pile of money, all my problems would go away." I haven't read your entire thread, and I don't...

I would just tell anyone that scoffs at your lack of social media presence that you live in reality, not virtual reality. I have an f book profile, but I use it mainly for selling on marketplace. I have a nice profile pic and a few things that I've been tagged in, so prospective customers know...

I just watched an old episode of "I Shouldn't Be Alive" on YouTube the other night. The guy in the episode got stranded in the Amazon for 28 days. A stray dog he met at the beginning of the trip followed him into the jungle. After he loses all his food when his canoe overturns, he decides to...

No loss. Old, broken silver plated items are essentially valueless.

The candlesticks you have are most likely silver plated, and not actual silver unfortunately. The Derby and International Silver brands produced silver plated items. Pieces made from real silver are generally marked "925" or "Sterling". Sterling silver is a silver alloy containing at least...

I wouldn't be surprised, either. Between the 2 kids and the fact they live together, she's pretty much got him by the balls whether he wants to admit it or not.

A friend of mine got married recently. The officiant was a close friend. There was a ceremony and everything (not in a church, though), but they didn't get legally married. His wife even changed her name. I don't know all the legal advantages for him not signing a marriage license...

Because the degree will get you a better paying job, or because the knowledge you supposedly will gain from getting the degree will make you better at the job you currently have? I would only advise doing so if (like has been mentioned) it's STEM related, or some type of tech program.

I don't have any advice to give, but I wish you the best. Your situation sounds very difficult, it makes the problems I'm currently facing seem insignificant in comparison.

You beat me to it. I'm 5'6". I'd love to be taller, I'd love to be more attractive. I don't doubt for a second it would make my life easier. I get "challenged" occasionally out in public. I'll be crossing paths with some taller guy and they give me that look that says, "Watch out, runt."...

I was, but I'm much more attracted to fine asses and thighs. When it comes to boobs, I'd take a nice perky set that are a bit on the smaller side, rather than some big saggy ones. Can't stand fake ones, either.
