| This is tragic for health care, especially in rural areas. There could be a return of midwives to rural areas for birthing, but the general doctor flight will affect all health care for anyone without significant financial means. Unfortunately, midwives and lay-people would be at even greater risk ... |

| An 8 day online acquaintance is way too soon for anyone to try to provide this level of emotional support to a relative stranger. S-L-O-W down at least. I can't imagine a healthy scenario where this level of emotional enmeshment is healthy for either of you. Its a time to get to know one another sur... |

| I hope it was a learning experience for you. You could have been forced to pay child-support even if the child wasn't yours. (typically though that's a scam either to get you to pay for fake medical costs or blackmail). I'd advise you to steer clear of sex-workers in the future, at least until you ... |

| After a while, her distress began to upset to me and then I began to feel bad. I think for me it was because she just went into her own world and didn't really communicate it to me along the line. And she just goes into this own world and doesn't really reach out to me and include me for help. She ... |

I was going to say the smart head vs the other one, but that was ambiguous. Yours is better  |

| Yes, there are risks involved. That's true of any unregulated activity. Some people will simply bank on you not reporting thefts (you should). I never had any real problems, but I got referrals from people I knew, not just randoms. It doesn't help with loneliness either, because well, its sex, not f... |

| Sex-workers are indeed an option. It gave me the experience and confidence to start dating with the general population after some safe practice. As for revealing your sexual history? As long as you aren't pretending to be a virgin, and are upfront about your health status, there is no reason to tell... |

| I prefer using duckduckgo, a search engine that doesn't track you. Using google is akin to someone looking over your shoulder as you are surfing the web. I've never really cared if someone is looking over my shoulder while I google something. Unless they are actually breathing on me. But my web use... |

| Nope not a meltdown....not even close. The response is understandable given the circumstances. Finding an appropriate outfit for a funeral can be stressful. To find out at the last minute that the planned outfit doesn't fit is stressful. Screwing up dinner is stressful. Saying you'd rather eat a san... |

| Why commercials can be louder than the TV shows? It's because the advertisers want to make sure you hear them if your not really paying attention. I wish the FCC required them to have the same volume as the shows. Reminds me why I haven't had a TV since 2000. (I don't miss it, if there is something... |
