Sorry, that's not what I meant.

I was talking about my first, incorrect impression, on the first read. If you're not careful, she or some friend could hear it that way and not try to think again. I did read it again and changed my mind. Not everyone will do that. It could still hurt her feelings, even though it is not true.

If they can invent viagra and stuff like that, why can't they invent something that does the opposite? Not for all the time or permanent, but just for the roughest spots?

I fully endorse the research into creating anti-aphrodisiacs, because it would solve a lot more problems than Viagra does.

Uh-uh. There's a common misconception (so to speak) that Viagra is an aphrodisiac. What Viagra does is increase blood flow down there; it does not ignite or increase sexual arousal. It's simply for men who feel the desire all right, but can't get certain physical manifestations of it happening.

Get a dog. It worked for me.
If you've never been the primary caregiver for a dog or cat, there's no way to really explain why it's so good for your mental health. (A pet your parents had when you were a little kid doesn't really count.) I think Mcrakin should have a small dog. For B9, I think a cat would work better. Either way, you might try it by offering to babysit for someone who is going on vacation.

I never recomend small dogs to anyone. ^^ They are usually harder to bring up to become calm and nice dogs. Of course, if you mess up a big dog, you have a whole lot more problems than if you have a small dog. :P
Then again small dogs are cheaper in the long run. But I prefer a quiet dog over an inexpencive one. :D

Usually you can borrow a dog from a breeder if you are interested in buying a puppy, but unused to handeling dogs or want to experience the particular breed.

Kind of, except for me it's mostly the sexual desire.

I managed this. Trust me, it's not as attractive as it seems. I'd advise you to get used to the pain of wanting the impossible, because it's a lot better than the alternative.

What makes you say that? Why is a lifetime of pain and misery so much "better than the alternative"?
