| Lately, all the young females in my area seem to be going around wearing long plastic bead necklaces. I realise they all do it because evryone else is, and that's just how fashions work (in fact, I'm quite curious as to how it started/who started this one), but this bead thing does seem to be a part... |

Yeah, I know. I used to think it would be hepful, but I've since learned that it's usually best to just let them get on with it. I do wish they'd use a bit more common sense, though.  |

| I worked out some time ago that I tend to be intelectually ahead, but emotionally behind. Someone said on a previous page that they tend to be idealistic - I find myself sometimes sitting there lecturing family members on the psychological reasons of their arguments, only to watch in despair as they... |

| Hot Wheels don't have mini engines in them either but I don't care- I want to imagine I am driving the car, not repairing it. You mean ... it's not normal to pretend your toy cars break down so you can repair them? :? I used to have entire road accidents with ambulances and the AA when I was a chil... |

| A lot of women seem to look either the same or better without makeup. However, sometimes in small amounts it seems to be an improvement. When I was younger I used to dislike wearing it as it made my skin feel strange, but now sometimes wear some eyeshadow and/or mascara and/or that pinkish powder st... |

It could be interesting ... but if it was permanent, then no, I wouldn't want to risk it.
What would you do, Steve? |

| Romance novels, the movies, and popular belief? Common belief maybe - but in which romance novels or films have men been sexually molested? Secondly, I appreciate that you were angry, but it's never 'good' to slap someone, especially if it's a female and you're a male. Equality aside, it's easier fo... |

| Firstly, well done on figuring out the dancing tactic. It sounds fun. :) (For both you and the girl.) One way to go about it when you're sitting down, if things are going really well, is to try putting your hand on hers, and see how she responds. She might smile, entwine her hand with yours, and/or ... |

| I was going to mention misplaced apostrophes, but forgot to. 'It's' versus 'its', for example. Also managing to get 'your' and 'you're' mixed up. They're the most common ones, but any type of typo is annoying. |

| But Beenthere, those wires are fun! You can make little models out of them. :) It always used to irritate me to the point of painfulness when I heard someone eating, especially something cruncy such as biscuits or salad. It was made worse by the fact that my dad is a very noisy eater - when I was gr... |

| Just remember: You're allowed to mess up. It's all learning. Keeping it all in perspective should hopefully help you to stay relaxed, which will give a better impression, which will in turn make things even easier. But either way, try to relax and be yourself (even though it's a cliche) and you'll g... |

I agree with MagicMike regarding the dog/consent issue.
Are you seeing a psychiatrist? (And if not, but you're feeling that despairing, maybe you should see one.) |

What I want to know, though, is why one of the mothers was trying to get her daughter to go on a swing? First the gir... |

| Find a girlfriend who you trust enough to know that she isn't carrying anything? (Ideally, if she's not had an std test, she should be realistic enough to not mind booking one.) Look into contraception. And, your family sound very, very strange. I'd say just do your own thing, and if they complain, ... |
