I think you are better off meeting possible dates via your volunteering and charity work. |

A light colored skirt or skort will help to hide the lack of hips and provide more balance to your upper body. Junior size jean sizes are odd numbered, while wo... |

Yes, you may need a purse to hold your stuff. I find that golf skirts often have useful pockets. |

I have a lot of life experiences that most folks don't get until they are older, yet I look like I'm in my late 30s!
A lot of people here have executive function issues which means they don't take advantage of opportunities until later in life. |

The biggest mistake I see is people here doing too much to make up for some perceived shortcoming. You want to do the same amount of work as everyone else. No more, no less.
Unless you are making $$$ |

You are expected to have a business relationship with him. You are expected to figure out what he needs to do his job. This can be a challenge if someone is good at masking, but that is why they need you to figure it out. "You need to be patient" says they know it can be a challenge and wi... |

I've considered it but I already have an hourglass figure with a thin waist. Guys can get breast cancer. The risk is greater if you are on HRT. Many MtFs get mammograms as a precaution. What I would suggest is either dressing male or female. While dressing "in the middle" can elicit strong... |

I think the real problem is that people have trouble accepting help!
So many people struggle trying to do things without help! They turn down offers for assistance.
We live in an world in which nobody would survive for long on our own. |

No, just that she is someone that has taken a long time to grow up. She has been in the public so long that the changes are quite easy to see. |

Yes, it is quite amazing that as much of this site is still useful for Aspies. Lots of Internet resources have gone away. Lots of vibrant communities have vanished because someone pulled the plug! |

No it isn't. It takes longer for some people to grow up. Taylor Swift is a great example of someone that has taken a long time to grow up. She was busy learning how to be a great entertainer and businesswoman! Those skills took a very long time to acquire! Most singers never get to her level of busi... |

I live alone in a single family house surrounded by hundreds of flowering plants that I take care of. It is expensive but I can afford it! I paid off the mortgage over a decade ago. |

Twenty years I visited a lot of the coastal towns in California. It is nice living next to the ocean as the water keeps the weather from getting too hot or cold as your sister said. |

I find it helps to keep a list of stuff I need to do and try to do one a day. Keep a calendar on the refrigerator to keep track of what I've done. It is obvious when I'm doing stuff and when I'm not. I pay my bills as soon as I get them, except for those medical ones that take time for the paperwork... |
