Yay! It worked! Thanks sooooo much. I've ben at this forevr!

kisses better - than hugs

Ok, I jus got a new laptop and I'm figuring things out so-so but the
main thing thats got me is how to add icons to my quick launch bar, for
instance Word is the main one. I've gone to create folder but I'm lost.
Quicktime's there, iTunes's there, even Outlook Express-- and I dont
even use Outlook! How'd it get there? And why wont Word go there?

No I'm not cheating on him... I'm a good girl! But I do need male
companionship too... he gets mad if I talk to my homeboys, but he won't
open up so what the hell!?

ok... but should guys have like a let-out zone? Girls have emails and
hotlines... but dudes on the other hand-- how will they get it out if
they need to vent about Anything

My boy friend is always sooooo upset. I think he's stressed about his
job, or family, or maybe its me...but he doens't talk to me. I know I
have my "girl system," but do guys? And if not, should they have one?

Hey everyone

Today's my b-day-- Hope your day's as good as mine

Smile!!! :)

I recently cut my hair off and went natural. I have a cute face, I dont
wear make-up but I do notice a difference between the attention I got
when my hair was permed and styled as opposed to my natural--lets face
it, kinky hair. I get so sick and tired of thinking I need to appear
this way to this group and that way to that group. America is so caught
up in vanity its frustratin-- and I'd be lying if I said it didnt phase
me, cuz it does. That "beauty is on the inside" is all crap too, cause
lets be honest: when you're lookin for someone of the opposite sex
appearance does initially matter, you get to the important stuff later
Ugh! It just wont end!

When I see him, my brain waves send shock from my head to my gut,
And stops. The feeling, of wanting him…just wont go away.
When I see him, my eyes smile, to be treated by his beauty one doesn’t
need imagination.
When I see him, I’m young again, and all else known doesn’t matter.
When I see him—the lips, the eyes, the chest (I can only imagine since
never felt)
Its beautiful, and the more I try to forget the more I fall for it all.
To hear him, just say my name say anything—I’m astounded.
To know him is a privilege and it hurts he doesn’t know me.
Oh, to see him. The eyes look so gazingly; I’m captured
By tongue and groove, theory and fiction, the life. How one could
encapsulate me
Is beyond me. He’s so beyond me. He’s so for me. He’s perfect,
But he doesn’t even know me

Thankyou so much everyone. I know I need to talk to him. I'll do my best
to say what's on my mind, and work on figuring out what the hell it is I
want in life
Happy New Year!

thanks everyone. I know what i have to do now...

Ok, its a little long...but I wanted to spill the full scenario so
there'll be no question about direction for advice. To anyone with any
good common sense or meaningful words I can use some assistance I have a
little problem:

I've been dating my boyfriend for almost 4 months now. He's in the NAVY,
living in VA and I'm in GA. He's down for the holiday, visiting with me
for a week, then we're drivin down to Savannah to meet his family. He's
a great person, very caring, very sweet, and should be all I want in a
man...but I feel more and more drawn away from him. I was single a while
before I met him so I'm used to having my freedom. I have a lot of male
friends who I can just chill with, maybe go out to lunch or for drinks
but it be nothing sexual-- at least not on my end-- but I've had to halt
that activity out of respect for my man. I feel obligated to tell him
alot, and I'm not use to that either. On top of that, since he's been
here the smallest things have been annoying the hell outta me-- well,
what should be small but have a big affect on me. The biggest problem,
though is I tell him I love him-- because I thought I did. But now, more
and more, I dont think I do. Actually I'm pretty sure I dont. I care
about him. Alot. Which's why I've spared hurting him with this truth
I've been consealing. He gives my massages, cooks me food, listens and
talks to me, doesn't mind doing things I want to do. But I'm just at a
stand-still because though I should be jumping for joy inside that I've
found a man most women envy, I'm secretly wanting my freedom. He came in
my life during a time that was very hard for me. I lost my mother in
September and deep down inside, more and more I think my close
attachness to him was to just fill this void of emptiness I felt at the
death of my mother. Saying I loved him was a new-found joy I was hoping
could replace the love I lost. But I cant continue to look in his eyes
and lie to him. Or pretend I want something I no longer do. I especially
dont want to meet his family he cant wait for me to be introduced to and
tell them yes, I still want to marry this guy. I just really think I
need to be single in this time in my life. Its a new year and I dont
want to start it with deception. What should I do: Wait for a spark to
come and hold on to this man who loves me? Or tell him I'd love to keep
in contact but need to back off a little from the "girlfriend" thing?
Helpful, honest advice is truly appreciated... Thanks, peoples. Happy
New Year

so so true, M... You live and you learn

that was hot iam... for real, we're here. eventually lol

Hey iam! I've been real busy lately... trying to get stuff done. Its my
last year of school so I'm grindin.. and so glad the Holiday's over!

Take care!

dont think too much... if you just let it flow u'll understand

I'm not much for letting go. I try to hold on.
To past, so that I can learn-- but it's just that: I havent learned.
Because to learn is to grow, and I still feel so stuck.
In this place I've grown in solitude, or just not grown at all.
I befriend my enemies, and I push love aside
Until I realize my enemies, I blame the organ inside.
That organ which continues to pump and bleed and pump
That non-stop organ which makes me feel and live and believe
This organ which I feel, but never have seen
I've convinced myself it exists and carries me.
I'm not much for letting go. I try to hold on.
I've been tempted to forgive, but I still manage to hold on.
I try to control my temper, the way I control my body
I control my mind the way I control my body
But every now and then my soul is leased to my mind
And I can not be held responsible for what happens in mine.
A grudge is not truthful, because lies breed forth anger.
But my grudge is not a lie... I wait and I see all danger.
I see what happens, before it occurs
I play each scene, before it occurs.
I'm smarter than I appear. And appearnances can deceive.
I've seen a lot in my time... even before they occur.
Thats why I cant let go. I hold on.
To the truth only I know

DOWN BOY! LMAO

but i feel ya tho... i aint knockin u for releasin...its soooo
necessary, as long as u get up and move on...
