Who are some great authors of our current age?

Virginia Woolf, Charlotte Bronte, Ernest Hemingway, William Faulkner, and John Steinbeck (to name a few) were amazing writers, legends, and innovators of their day. My question is: who are the crests of our time? Why are most do most of the best sellers pale in comparison to the greats? What makes someone a great writer? (It can't just be sales) and..Where is literature heading? (It seems to be far less important than it use to be)

Depends on the rabbit I would think. For example, some dogs like to have lots of attention and some don't.

How to know if she wants to cuddle?

I met this girl recently and I believe she is into me. The only problem is, is that she has a boyfriend of only three months. She is a traveling cheerleader asked me to come stay in her hotel with her. There is two beds in there and when we're watching tv, I'm not sure if she wants to cuddle or what because we are on two different beds. Before i got there she had mentioned she would kiss me if she wasn't in a relationship bc she is super attracted to me. I really like her and want to kiss her, bc a kiss can tell so many things about each other. how do i approach the cuddling and kissing situation?

HAS THE ARMY CORP OF ENGINEERS EVER HEARD OFF RELIEF-CANALS?

we have had and are still having flood damage from the rivers in the midwest costing billions of dollars in damage well over 12 billion so far and thousands of homes and buildings.If one relief canal or more had been built from north of St Louis Missouri at a point south of where the Missouri River enters the Mississippi from that point down to interstate hi-way 44 continue west through Oklahoma w/relief outlets in drought areas to Wichita Falls TEXAS to Abilene to where ever needed in west Texas, this would end flood damages ,wild fires provide trillions in benefits. jobs to thousands of unemployed and billions in flood costs. the cost to build would be a small fraction of the flood damage cost up todate

you both sound kind of timid....just go with it, if you want to get steamy do it because you're dating. remember that. you both like each other and are obviously attracted to one another, so what's keeping you from that? taking the initiative shows confidence, and guys dig confidence.

Which is the easiest to read?

Definitely J. D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye hands down. It is the most modern and easiest to relate to and it doesn't have long dry or boring passages in my opinion. It also has an interesting story line that will probably appeal to you more than the others. The grapes of Wrath is more of an epic saga, it is interesting but I found it to be a bit slow at times.. It is however very descriptive. My second choice would be Steinbeck.

What are some good books?

A good book is Gone, Baby,Gone. but it's the 4th one of a series by Dennis Lehane ,but alot of his books are good from that series in order is, A Drink Before the War, Darkness Take my Hand, sacred, Gone, Baby, Gone, Prayers for Rain, and Moonlight Mile.Those are the Kenzie and Gennaro series, some other separate books by him are Shutter Island and Mystic River which are also very good. Another good book I liked was My sisters keeper, way different(better) than the movie by Jodi Picoult, but have heard good things about her other books.

East of eden ia a combination novel/memoir; Steinbeck writes himself in as a minor character in the book?

a member of the Hamilton family. What do you think he gained by morphing genres in this fashion? What distinguishes this from a typical autobiography? What do you think Steinbeck`s extremely relationship to the material contributes to the novel?

How do you guys think she feels?

I met this gir at aprtyand basically we it it off right away I spent all night talking to her and we ended up just cuddling and falling asleep with each other we talked the next day and weve jept talking since. She says thatsh fels like shes known me a lot longer than she ihas and feel the same.Ive told her that im starting to like her and asked her if she is just seeing me as a friend or if i have the potential for something more later on. and she "idk yet im just ing with the flow" she texts me first everytime or calls me I dont call her. she texted me the night we went home and we talk every night for a few hours or all nighht sometimes. but she did throw one text at me that said she feels like she knows me better than some of her best frends to ich i told her again that i was reallystarting to like her. ive already earned that you have to make sure she knows how you feel or you get stuck and im not the kind of guy to hang in the background or be the guy the girl i like comes to with guy problems id rather quit talking to her and look at it as i lost out. so im wondering what someone elses opinion is and what you think i should do. Also she had a boy friend up until a few days before i met her. but I dont want to hear the rebound talk ill take my chances thank you. and thanks in advance for any advice given

Were these just drunken ramblings and slip ups from my friend? What are your thoughts?

I do have an answer for you and I hope you take this to heart and the most important, your thoughts and how you react to certain situations. Being drunk is no excuse for this so called friend of yours. First of all I would not trust her. You really do not know what exactly the relationship is between her and your ex-boyfriend. Also a true friend would not speak to in the way she has. Maybe she does have mixed feelings about her sexuality.In that case you want to stay away. Whether or not she was drunk I do believe people say things they really feel and do not have the guts to say it when they are sober. If this friendship was really worth it I would tell her what she said to you(although I think she knows) and just confront her. See what her reaction is. And for you I think you do know whats up. You sound like a nice person who may have a self-esteem issue.Try to change the group you have been hanging out with as you are moving way too fast for your age. Positive people have positive effect. I know this may sound out of reach for you but you could do something that will give you self-esteem and that is to volunteer in your area. This would be so good for you and you WILL meet dynamite people. Every town has a help-line and they have all the info.you would need.Or just google it. You could work with animals, children or the elderly. What ever catches your interest. I believe you can do it, and it is a lot of fun.I hope and pray you will follow my advice.This will surprise you as to how awesome you will feel.Forget about hanging out with people who bring you down.

Mortal kombat 9 or, undeniable knowledge?

You remind me of myself, but when i was a younger age. In elementary school and early middle school, I always read books all the time like that. Now i'm more into videogames, but I still enjoy reading. I would suggest getting Mortal 9, and not just because I really enjoy videogames now. First of all, it is a very enjoyable game. Second, you can always get those books at a public library, although i understand your point about your "collection". It's always nice to actually own the books. In my opinion, you should get Mortal Kombat first, then when you get some more money, buy the books. You can always buy the books off of amazon for cheaper prices than Barnes and Noble, and if you don't mind reading electronically, you could get them on your computer or idevice. I would also suggest acquiring the book "Candid" by Voltair. On a side note, I enjoyed your philosophy joke "So my question is, in your perspective (isn't that all the world is anyways?) which should i choose."

Really weird dreams.or are they dreams?

First things first.. What an emotional story! I feel for you, truly. I lost my grandad to Huntington's disease a number of years ago and in the final stages it can be painful to witness. Luckily like yourself I don't carry the defective gene, for which I'm eternally grateful. Your brother, bless his soul, must have been in a very bad place mentally at the time, but you can surely take some solace in the fact that he didn't suffer for the final few brutal years of the illness. In regards to your dreams, in my opinion they will be caused both by your PTSD and your medication. They sound extremely vivid and dreams like that can confuse/scare/bewilder us. I agree with the above answer that writing your dreams down after they've woke you up may help you make sense of it all. And I also agree with the other comment in the sense that, although you have suffered all this loss and pain, you are still here. Make a difference, raise money for the cause to defeat the illness that took your loved ones (Huntington's Disease Association) so that you can feel proud in the fact you may have spared someone else the same pain that you've felt. Keep your head held high and above all enjoy life! It only happens once. I truly wish you the best of luck in your life and I hope you succeed in making some sense of it all.

Can i change my laptop processor?

Specialized knowledge and technique is required to change a laptop processor. It's not like a desktop. The cooling systems on laptops are very precise and even minor details like the amount of tension on each heat sink screw must be exactly right or the laptop will run much slower.

Confused..ladies and gentlemen please help!?

I been talking to this dude for almost 4 months now. He have asked me out before but I haven't gave him an answer and when we are together all we do is stay at his place watch movies , he cooks and we cuddle and have sex. Lately things have be different, I'm not feeling him anymore. And I went off on him when I was drunk last weekend. He said he is tired of making me happy and how i treat him like he is my "jump off" and I'm always shutting him down also how I don't flirt with him when we are together. He is a nice kid but I don't know, I feel like he says something and does something else that's why I'm not feeling him anymore but I don't want to hurt him. So what do you guys think? Does he like me and wants to be with me and how I can make things better? Thank you guys !

Help for an introduction of my 'Of Mice and Men' essay?

My first part would be: (First name?) Steinbeck's novel 'Of Mice and Men' contains many disadvantaged characters whose roles in the novel are crucial to the novel's plot.

Guys: how does it feel to be in love with a woman? (plz read)?

He sounds like a wonderful guy. From the way you described it, he really cares for you! He's willing to make changes in his life to be with you, and he is emotionally devoted to you in some way. Don't say it till you're ready, and these kind of things take time, but I think he really might be the guy!

What should i do? do i still have a chance?

i graduated college 5 years ago. Throughout the time there I had a good friend, who i was really attracted to and loved, but bc of different circumstances (i was with her best friend at college before i met her) i couldnt be with. all we had were a few kisses, cuddling, a lot of flirting and a few serious talks. after schol we then didnt talk for 5 years until she messaged me out of the blue Saturday. I still love her, i know that bc i cant stop thinking about her. now she lives in maryland, i live in boston. how can i smoothly find out if she still thinks of me romantically? nd how can i do things to improve her interest from so far away? so far after our first converstion i just sent her a msg on fb reminding her abt something that happened during school. she just replied "lmfao"

Does he want to be just friends with benefits?

I've been talking to this guy for a while and today was technically the 1st time we've hung out. We were at my house and my brother was there so sexual activity was (thankfully) limited. While we watched a movie we talked, kissed, and cuddled. Sounds good, right? Then tonight we were texting and we started discussing what mightve happened if my brother hadn't been there (i know, it's like I'm askin for him to mention sex, but we were just messin around). In 1 text he said he would like to just hold me while we watch a movie (cute). But then BOOM, next text he says maybe then his boys could feel a lil happy (and I'm assuming by boys he meant his dick?). Now I'll be honest, before now he has mentioned sex, but what else do you expect from a teenage boy? But the thing that bothers me is he's never mentioned a relationship or anything. I know he told some of his friends that me and him were hanging out, so he isn't exactly keeping me a secret but I'm still skeptical. We talk about a lotta stuff besides sex and I also know he likes me but..i have trust issues. Lol so are we destined for friends with benefits, or something more? And if it's heading for the FWB direction, is there anything I can do to change that, or is it too late?

What is up with this guy?

this guy and i have known each other for 2 years and in the past month got really close. we hold hands, cuddle and he plays with my hair. we never kissed or anything and when i rub his thigh he moves and shakes his head. well i only did it when my brother was in the room so do you think its just because of my brother or am i moving to fast or what?

Do women like to cuddle without having sex?

YES !!! Of course!! I looooveee cuddling and kissing. It is very nice to be close to someone and it is something intimate without sex being involved. Its healthy to have human touch in our lives--hugging, cuddling, massages, kissing, etc. Don't make lost puppy eyes, but just tell her that you enjoy being close to her or something along those lines.

The kite runner by khaled hosseini similar to mice and men by john steinbeck?

I'm getting tutored and i need to know similarities between these two books to write an essay for my english 10 final... i'm thinking about writing about the main characters of these books because they were friends.. but i just want some ideas what i should write in my essay.. if you could help that would be great and i'm not really familiar with the book mice and men because i read it in the beginning of the school year..

Can you tell me which one of these books is the best? Thanks.?

I've read "The Jungle" and "The Grapes of Wrath" and I enjoyed both of them. Of the two, I'd choose The Grapes of Wrath. "The Jungle" is very realistic and vivid, but the final chapters sound like a political harangue, and spoil an otherwise excellent novel - which, incidentally, is based on historical fact.

Your advice please??

He is playing you whether you like to hear it or not. He is keeping you in a convenient position and when he wants to play, he calls and at other times, he does his thing. Get wise and get away from this clown. You are not going to find love with a guy like this. You are going to have a stripper boyfriend. You give something nice to him and he leaves and when he feels like he wants to see you, he comes around and so on and so on. THere are guys out in this world who will be glad to have a girl who wants to be with them. Get rid of this deadbeat and find a real man.

i thought we really hit it off in every way. started talking. eventually hooked up..had sex 3 times in one night the first time. we probably had sex about 6 times total. we'd spoon and cuddle all night afterwards. he told me how attracted he is to me, and didn't pressure me to have sex. but then he stopped contacting me out of the blue, after i met all his friends and whatnot. i was confused..turns out he was seeing someone else. got himself a girlfriend :/ i called him back in february just to check if he was alive but the phone convo was a little weird. haven't heard from him since then..we had such a connection though, met totally randomly. ugh. do you think i ever cross his mind or not?? we are friends on facebook as well.

How come music leaks to the internet more then movies?

I don't understand why music lets say from Lady gaga, Britney spears Jay-z, Beyonce, Timberland, etc leaks to the internet more then movies like Harry potter and the deathly hallows part 2. Why is that? I never hear of major corp movies leaking to the internet but music just so happens to do so. Are the music artist leaking the music on purpose? I don't get it?

What does callable at par mean when we are talking about bonds or munis?

Is it okay to sleep with my sister topless?

She's only 10 years old and I'm 17 and we've been doing it for 2 and a half years now. My mom told her that she would have to learn not to sleep with her so one night, she just slipped into my bed. But I always sleep shirtless with my boobs hanging out! its just too hot to wear a shirt! She always comes in to my bed around 11 at night. She likes to cuddle real close to me, and i've got a real comfy area in my cleavage that she always lays her head in... We live in a small community and she's home schooled so being made fun of by her friends isn't a big deal or anything, she just hangs out with me, our other sister, and sometimes our older brother. Is this wierd? Should she learn to stop? If not now, when should she stop?

Which of these books is the most interesting?

Catch22 might be the funniest one. Huck Finn is a good one, too though. The Grapes of Wrath is good but depressing.

ENGLISH GCSE NOTES - Of Mice And Men (HELP) !!?

I'm sitting my English literature exam on the tenth of this month based on the novel 'Of mice and men' by John Steinbeck and I'm worried.

What to do when you don't feel 'valued' in a marraige?

The " What to do " varies with circumstances surrounding you. Man/ woman can be emotionally abused when living far from their parents. The one having a superior income may feel placed in a position to abuse the other party. No matter the reasons to be abusive, this behavior may stem from a lack of concern or love for you. I suggest that you do not give up your schooling as this may the only pillar you will have in the years ahead. It is best to be alone than having a weak link as partner. I am afraid that you will never do enough to please him. Usually, I do not advise anyone to get a divorce but, I strongly counsel you to open your eyes and let no man drive you in a ditch in the name of love or a marriage standing on no legs. I know of many women who after a divorce went back to you and become independent through their new career. The husband they had was pure hindrance in their life. Be strong and do the right thing for yourself.

Are you a fan of zendaya and bella's friendship?

maybe they're taking it too far, like they "cuddle" and hug too much..(if you know what I'm saying). Are they hiding something, or are they just good friends?

Is this a good idea? and any tips?

PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

Which of these words would best replace "see" in the following sentence?

I like "D" because visualizing means you get a mental picture of what Steinbeck is describing. Behold sounds too archaic, detect means you're looking for something specific or hidden in the author's words, and comprehend means something you need to understand. Since most of Steinbeck's literature is fictional, it is not necessary to detect or comprehend. I think visualize says it all. Just my humble opinion.

Could me knowing a Marine Corp Major General help me to get into the Naval Academy/West Point?

I know you seemingly need a recommendation from a Congressman/Representative or the Vice President but could a Major General in the Marines that I know be able to help me in the same way?

"The Pearl" by John Steinbeck question?

He's anxious as well as worried because he has to trust in others for such important information. And he must trust that they are right because if he believes them and they are wrong the baby could die.

Do you think I really loved him?

I'm in exactly the same situation. I broke up with my boyfriend of 2 years as well. I don't know if I was in love with him but I definitely loved him. We were together since we were 14 so we grew apart.

How has the Wall Street Journal changed since News Corp bought it?

It has become another ultra right wing neoconservative rag, and supports the Republican cause much more than it did. It seems to be more of an opinion piece, rather than a reporter of financial and business news.

What does this phrase mean?

"And fear the time when the strikes stop while the great owners live—for every little beaten strike is proof that the step is being taken. And this you can know—fear the time when Manself will not suffer and die for a concept, for this one quality is the foundation of Manself, and this one quality is man, distinctive in the universe." John Steinbeck

Why do I always become so sentimental at night?

Sounds like you're lonely. Maybe you can get a boyfriend? If you're not old enough to spend the night with him, you can hang out during the day and that will probably help a lot. You could also text him at night as you lie in bed.

A question for classic literature and english enthusiast's?

I love to read classic literature books by authors like J.D. saligner and John Steinbeck. The main thing that attracts me to these author's are their use of symbolism but i have a hard time trying to figure out the deeper meaning of things therefore i am wondering how can i improve my comprehension of books that are harder to understand.

What should I do???? Please help!?

It sounds like a summer fling. If he's making out with you and kissing you and all that on a regular basis and doesn't want a relationship, he's just trying to get some pussy. If I were you, I'd just end it. Nothing good will come out of continuing it.

My cockatiel's beak grows too much, her beak grows almost to the bottom of her head and her lower jaw is growing a bit too. We have a cuddle bone in our cage that the other one chews on, his beak is fine. But she chews it a bit and her beak still gets longer! Her jaw has even shifted to the right from all the extra beak.

Is it wrong to have just a cuddle buddy?

There's this guy, the first guy I was ever interested in, the first guy I ever kissed. I was really naive then, and fell for his type. He's a sweet guy as a friend, but a major player. Really cute with a really nice body. He's just NOT boyfriend material. It's been a long time, I've grown up a lot, and I am one hundred and FIFTY percent over him. Just to get that straight. I've been through other guys since then, and if anything, still have feelings for THEM. He's been texting and calling me more lately. Last weekend we were at a gathering together and ended up cuddling while everybody was watching a movie. He's literally the best cuddler ever. And I don't have any feelings like that for him anymore. Is it wrong to use him as just a cuddle buddy if he doesn't want anything more either?

Silly troubles. (long)?

Its a silly thing, but my boyfriend and I have been dating, for almost 7 months now, and I can't get him to make the slightest move. We hardly even kiss! I love how respectful he is, but honestly, guys aren't the only ones that are sexual like every one stereotypes. But I want to go somewhere with it. And trust me, I've tried. I mean not pressuring him into anything, but when we have a night alone, ill wear something maybe a little bit provocative, like a short skirt, and a push up bra. Well cuddle up close and then well start to kiss, but it won't go much farther. To be fair I'm more 'sexually experienced' then him, but I know he wants it, he'll admit it to everyone but me. His friend, has been one of my closest friends forever and he's told me my boyfriend has spoken to him about it. But anyways, what else can I do? I'm at a lost, and I'm fine with making a first move, but I'm not for guiding his hands..

We went 5 yrs w/o talking but i still love her?

i graduated college 5 years ago. Throughout the time there I had a good friend, who i was really attracted to and loved, but bc of different circumstances (i was with her best friend at college before i met her) i couldnt be with. all we had were a few kisses, cuddling, a lot of flirting and a few serious talks. after schol we then didnt talk for 5 years until she messaged me out of the blue Saturday. I still love her, i know that bc i cant stop thinking about her. now she lives in maryland, i live in boston. how can i smoothly find out if she still thinks of me romantically? nd how can i do things to improve her interest from so far away?

What does it mean when you cuddle-ish with your guy bestfriend?

so, my best girlfriend and my best guyfriend and I hung out. We dropped her home and he was going to drive me home. It was 11pm at night, but I wanted to stay out later with him so we hung out at the park near my house. We were hiding in the slides to block the wind and he just started to lean on my legs and waist. He kinda leans on my sometimes+give each other piggyback rides and I don't care because I want to be more than just friends with him.. I like him! Then a bunch of people came to the park and we wanted privacy and stufff, so we went to the back seat of his car. I was just siting there alone and trynna rest cause it was 12am & he comes leaning on my leg and waist again. I mean, I playfully pushed him off not to make it seem like I like it, even though I did. Then I was kinda tired and I said his seat covers were sorta hard & uncomfortable. So, he sorta told me to lean on him. I leaned on his shoulders, but it was kinda bony so it was uncomfortable and I got off. He said it made him warm and wanted me back & I was it was uncomfortable. Then he pulled me back and put me against his chest and his arms across my body. His chin was right on top of my head, while he gamed on his itouch. He stopped at times and we talked for awhile.. (: It felt good and we just stayed like that for 2 hours. How do I know if this means anything more than just friends ?

Why does my GF like my fat(10 points)?

im the same way with my bf.. im skinny and i never dated anyone bigger before and now that i have, i dont wanna go back! he is your size exactly, but taller but 260 lb about. for some reason i love that he is bigger when i used to be grossed out by it but that was when i had never dated a bigger guy. but of course I do try to tell him to maybe exercise or eat healthier for the sake of his health and our longevity as a couple, but if he could be healthy and big i really wouldnt mind.

How do i kiss my boyfriend just right? help me please!?

we are both new to all this and we're both nervous... we've only cuddled, kissed each others cheeks, and held hands. both of us have never done anything in a relationship, i mean hell, he's never been in a relationship. how do i quickly kiss him just perfectly? eyes open/closed? i mean this would be just a quick kiss. i'd also like to know how to do the long-ish romantic kiss... how to approach it calmly without getting nervous.. i tried to quick kiss him today but i got too scared... i don't think he could be the one to kiss me.... i've thought about like teasing him a bit... like getting close enough to see if he'll do it... but i'd get scared and back away. i think i could do it... but i'd feel like i'm doing it wrong.... i know looking in each others eyes deeply can make it happen, but that's what gets me... i can't look people directly in the eyes... ughhh help!

Does anyone know what happened to the Olfactory Corp. PO Box 4429, Yuma, AZ that sold primarily essential oils?

The website was www.olfactory.net and they sold essential oils, potpourri, and the like. I know that there are plenty of places to order essential oils, and delicious scents that come in one form or another for around the home, but their patchouli was perfect, in my opinion. Not too strong like the stuff I've sent away for online at other websites. It probably doesn't exist anymore since this was several years ago (probably almost 10). Wish I could find that Olfactory patchouli scent, but can't keep wasting money in an effort to do so. I've ordered the patchouli essential oil 3x for more $ than I wanted to spend and all three were hideously strong for my taste (or should I say smell?) Thanks in advance for any help.

My new puppy won't stop crying?

Shes a baby, of course shes attached to you. You are her "mother" and you should be giving her cuddles and lots of fuss. Shes in a new world with you which she will need to get used to. So, you will need to perseevere until she settles in.

Was i used or not???????????????????????????…

i thought we really hit it off in every way. started talking. eventually hooked up..had sex 3 times in one night the first time. we probably had sex about 6 times total. we'd spoon and cuddle all night afterwards. he told me how attracted he is to me, and didn't pressure me to have sex. but then he stopped contacting me out of the blue, after i met all his friends and whatnot. i was confused..turns out he was seeing someone else. got himself a girlfriend :/ i called him back in february just to check if he was alive but the phone convo was a little weird. haven't heard from him since then..we had such a connection though, met totally randomly. ugh. do you think i ever cross his mind or not?? we are friends on facebook as well.

Hello new to this but does anyone know where i can listen to mice of men byJohn Steinbeck to listen to online?

You can buy a copy of the audio book at several places online and download it to your Mp3 player, otherwise if you are looking for a copy you don't have to purchase you would have to get an audio copy from your local library.

Im scared - is all soliciting a crime?

First off you would have been violating the Terms of Service, which is different then violating the law. Second sure sounds to me like you DID violate the TOS. Third ignorance is no excuse, as they likely had you say from the start you agree to the TOS. If you choose not to READ the TOS that is YOUR fault and they can't go to your house and recite it to you before you start using their site. It is up to you to be responsible and read what you say you are agreeing to. If their TOS said you agree to dress up as an elephant when using the site then you would be expected to be dressed up as an elephant when using the site, as you agreed to do it(they wouldn't know unless it was some site that required you to use a webcam, but by point is to be outrageous to say you have to follow rules you say you will follow). They CAN fine you for not following the TOS, and you agreed to pay that fine when you agreed to the terms. That is how they get away with levying the fine basically.

If there is only one person who makes up an LLC, can that person get group health insurance for herself?

I'm setting up a "virtual" business online. I have decided that the LLC would be a simpler way to incorporate than the S-Corp. For the type of work I'm doing, I cannot be a sole proprietor. What I want to be sure of is that the LLC would allow me to get group health insurance, having only myself as an employee.

Can anyone recommend some "heavy" books?

I looove to read - it's as natural and daily as eating. But lately I felt like I've been reading too much fluff; I often pick up books just for entertainment, nothing particularly weighty or meaty, nothing that really makes you think. Could anyone recommend some books that deal with some deep issues, maybe ones that aren't very well-known? I've read some of the classics (To Kill a Mockingbird, Anne of Green Gables, Call of the Wild, Huckleberry Finn, Little Women) and enjoyed them greatly. But beyond Jane Austen and John Steinbeck's books, which I haven't gotten to yet, I can't really think of any other books to check out that aren't just cotton candy for the brain.

What to do when you don't feel 'valued' in a marraige?

The " What to do " varies with circumstances surrounding you. Man/ woman can be emotionally abused when living far from their parents. The one having a superior income may feel placed in a position to abuse the other party. No matter the reasons to be abusive, this behavior may stem from a lack of concern or love for you. I suggest that you do not give up your schooling as this may the only pillar you will have in the years ahead. It is best to be alone than having a weak link as partner. I am afraid that you will never do enough to please him. Usually, I do not advise anyone to get a divorce but, I strongly counsel you to open your eyes and let no man drive you in a ditch in the name of love or a marriage standing on no legs. I know of many women who after a divorce went back to you and become independent through their new career. The husband they had was pure hindrance in their life. Be strong and do the right thing for yourself.

Guy friend crossed the line but he says he doesn't remember! Please help?

My guy friend who I have a tad bit of a crush on and vice versa went out with mutual friends the other night and we ended up drinking a lot. A friend dropped 3 of us off at his place, there were two couches and his bed downstairs. We drank some more and they went outside for a cig. while i crashed on one of the couches. When they came downstairs, my friend climbed behind me on the couch to cuddle and our friend went onto the other couch. I woke up to my friend's hands wandering in all sorts of areas but I was pretty gone and wasn't able to move much so I just passed out again. The next morning, I woke up to find him in his bed. When he heard me leaving, he said "hey see ya Wed" which is when we had made plans. Today (two days later) he texted and asked if we kissed. I said no. He said "well i know we didn't have sex" but what else happened?" I asked him how he knew we didn't have sex but couldn't remember anything else and he said "bc I went to bed on the couch and woke up in my bed" which makes no sense. Anywho BIG TWIST...he has a gf and she found out I spent the night and asked if anything happened. He claims not to remember anything so I told him we only cuddled. They are having a "talk" tonight about it I guess and IDK if he truly doesn't remember, if hes feeling guilty or what. What should I do? Should I tell him that his hands were in inappropriate places?

Do you think I really loved my ex boyfriend?

He needs to save you as much as you need to save him. You cant be the only hero in the relationship. But he sounds too immature to be able to save you just yet. If you really think its meant to be, and you really want it to work out, then you have to give him more time. Trust me. I spent the longest time trying to get closer to this guy, when in reality, i was just pushing him away. You have to ignore him for awhile, make him want you, make him need you, make him miss you. And in the end, if its meant to be, it will be :) xoxoxo darling i hope i helped :)

How does Steinbeck present Slim (Of Mice And Men)?

He presents him as an alternative to the other ranch workers, unlike them he is kind and gentle and is the first person to show an interest in George and Lennie without pressurising them or forcing them to tell him anything they don't want to. He is described as "majestic" and a "prince" whilst being relatively down to earth and is like a leader to the other ranch workers, they turn to him when they're in trouble but he's also the only person Curley is too scared to pick a fight with. He also makes good friends with George and doesn't critisise him for what he does to Lennie.

Is my girlfriend frigid?

My girlfriend is 21 and I am 34 years old. We have been together for 10 months now. We see each other everyday. But dont live together. Recently I have got back into work and I am now in a good job. We use to have sex loads. But in the last 3 months we have only had sex 3 times. She has her own place with a single bed and will not let me sleep over any more, complaining about her back pains. The most I get is peck on the lips now. She won't kiss with tongues because she says its childish. So, quick kiss and a cuddle at her doorway at the end of the day and that is it. She is definitely not cheating on me because I see her everyday, she's not that type and can't be bothered. We say we love each other do which I do to a point. I use to complain about us not been more affectionate all the time which pushed her away. She will not talk about our problem at all! If I even try coming onto her she starts an argument. If I even try talking about sex she tells me to leave and go away. She says I have got to respect her wishes and build up the trust again. I have not cheated on her ever. What she means by trust, i think, is to stop bothering her about sex. She won't finish me. We get along really well. But this sex ban is killing me. I said what about my thoughts and feelings. She said I will take your feelings into consideration when you learn how to respect me and don't bother me or come onto me about sex! So, I have backed off for about a week or two now but nothing has changed which is hard when considering we see each other every day! She is a bit more touchy feely in front of other couples who are friends. But even though we are a drunk she always gets the taxi to drop me off at mine first. What can I do to improve my situation? Any Advice? I'm worried that if I don't show her any attention it will end us completely.

Would you tell your best friend if...?

Well my best friend's boyfriend went on a mission trip a week ago, and my other friend texted me telling me that she saw him flirting and cuddling on other girls and getting their numbers and stuff, but when she confronted him, he said it didn't matter because he would never see them again. My best friend still doesn't know because she is on vacation at the moment, and if I'm going to tell her, I want it to be in person. I'm just wondering if I should tell her or not. Her 11 month was yesterday, and I just don't want her to get really upset or anything. But then again, if I were her then I would want to know, but IDK if that's just me. Should I tell her?

Mortal Kombat 9 or, books?

I'm a huge Mortal Kombat fan, been playing since I was 6. You sound like you're more into books. Stick with reading rather than playing a game. The mind is a terrible thing to waste. The games can wait and its good that a 15 year old is interested in reading anything at all!

How to turn on my girlfriend?

Me and my girlfriend are a little young. 18 and 17. We don't have sex, and wont in a while but, sometimes, we engage into some sexy cuddling, where we sometimes touch each other and make out a lot. In these moments I feel very turned on, but she barely does, or I even think she doesn't. What can I do to turn her on, that doesn't involve penetration or any sexual activity either than just touching and kissing?.. Thanks :)

Jehovah Witnesses, help me?

Jehovah's organization does not commit thievery. Individuals may steal, but such ones are disciplined. It may take time, but remember, Jehovah sees all. It may take years for the deeds of wrongdoers to be revealed, but everything comes out eventually. If you have any questions regarding where something from the watchtower or awake came from, I encourage you to write to the branch. Why not even visit one of our branches and take a tour if you so desire? I actually got to visit Brooklyn's writing department as an unbaptized publisher and was very impressed with how thorough the society's research is. Look, no matter where you go online, you're almost always going to find negative material about Jehovah's witnesses. We as an organization do not have time to sit here and combat every attacking statement someone chooses to make. And frankly, we'd rather spend time teaching others about the good news, which is an upbuilding thing. Why spend time on lies, which are only put out there to tear down? It would be unwise for you to become a baptized witness if you do not understand how Jehovah's people choose to conduct ourselves and why. I encourage you to speak to a baptized brother or sister if you want the other side to the story and the truth about the lies you saw.

What was he trying to do ?

A couple days ago my date and I went to the movies and we ended up being the only two in that particular theater. We started cuddling somewhat and he was telling me how hot I was and how he couldn't focus on the movie and he kept rubbing my legs and telling me how soft and smooth my skin was. I noticed that during the movie he kept taking glances at my legs and I looked out of the corner of my eye and I saw him pull his shirt over the top of his pants and he was crossing his legs. Was he trying to hide an erection ? Lol no rude answers please, Thanks :)

He's in the Marine Corp, Does he want me to wait for him?

Ask him. Its better to be clear on the details of the relationship than be guessing for 7 months? Just say "hey, I had a question.. What would you call us? Am I waiting for you until you come back or what are we gonna do"... Let him tell you exactly what HE wants with this relationship you two have.

Which of these books should I read?

Bell Jar is literally one of my favorite books of all time. It's the not-so-fictionalized version of Sylvia Plath's life when she turns 20, how she went insane and was institutionalized. I read it in one sitting, I couldn't put it down.

Peyton Manning or Tom Brady?

I say Tom Brady. The guy puts up great stats with a pretty average wide receiving corp. He also has been the main peace of 3 superbowl championships. I feel Manning only has the better stats, but he had better recievers as well. However, after what I saw this past season, Manning didn't need great wide recievers to be great, he took a beatup team to the playoffs which is amazing. I believe Peyton Manning is smarter, has a stronger arm, and better accuracy, but Brady has better passing skills and more athletic. I believe Manning could have done what Brady did, but he didn't, and because he never gave a average wide receiving corp 3 rings, Brady is my choice. So based on opinions, my question is who would you pick?

Boyfriend is weird after sex?

Is this normal? I really love him. And before we have sex he is usually really sweet. All his attention is on me. He wants to hold me and tell me how he feels. But then after sex he is really aloof. Like he will cuddle with me but i think thats only because he feels that he has too. And he always wants to go do something else like ten minutes after cuddling. He will usually just go to sleep. Or get up and go eat. And it just seems like hes not as nice as he is before we do it. And its not even like its an obvious change its just the little things. And i don't think he is doing it on purpose. Could it be that he doesn't love me?

2011 So Cal grocery strike?

The grocery companies are 1 of the only industries making money the last 4 years... People need to eat, even in a recession, plus, the grocery prices have consistantly been going up, so, why wouldn't I support a strike? Why can't the corp big wigs give their employees a decent health care package? The corp big wigs are all getting raises, bonuses, excellent health care and benefits... why can't they share that with their employees (on a MUCH smaller scale)?

Joining the Peace Corp?

I'd like to join the peace corp after high school. I know this can be very dangerous, especially for young women, which i am.

How do i know if someone served in marine corp?

my fiancee says he was a marine sniper special ops. He has marine stickers and front license plate on his truck. he may have been dishonorably discharged. He asked me not to tell his 15 yr old son because he doesnt want his kid to know he killed people. Why advertise that on ur vehicle and expect a 15 yr old not to notice? Maybe stickers came on the truck lol. But this is serious. He proposed to me 3 days after we met on april 1st. asked me to quit my job in a bar (and i did), then broke up with me memorial day and took all the cash in my home,my birthday presents from him, my prescription meds, my engagement ring and other jewelry he had bought for me. Anyhow, his erratic behavior and pressure to immediately get married have worried me. All i need to know is if he is lying about the military service. He claims he was sniper, special ops and that there would be no records of his service.

Do you think there will ever be another profound writter.?

No offence to contemperary writters but none can sum up to Steinbeck, hemmingway or Orwell. I hope to somday be as profound as them, but do you think our literature is lost with our dignity?

Am I over reacting here?

I think you should just be straightforward with her and tell her how you feel about her. Obviously you feel something and there's really nothing to lose, especially if you two don't talk very much anymore. I think it will turn out okay and if not, you're still young and there are plenty of fish in the sea!

Three Quotes from Of Mice and Men?

I need three good quotes from the book Of Mice and Men. My thesis is along the lines of "In John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men the author shows that in this historical time period, woman woman are expected to serve men."

It's a two year "love" story? How would you qualify him?

Why does my husband find me more attractive (10 points)?

my husband and i are 27 have been married for 2 years. last year i was thin and went to the gym a few times a week and my husband and i had a good sex life and cuddled often. now i got a promotion at my job and i have been working more, so i guess i havent been able to work out and started eating more and i guess "let myself go" so i have gained some weight in the past year. so now im chubby. you would think he would be less attracted to me but he seems more into me and its like he cant keep his hands off of me. all he wants to do is cuddle and we have sex even more than we did when i was thin when we hug and kiss he likes to grab onto my rolls or love handles. like yesterday when he got back from work (he is a sports writer btw) we hugged and kissed and he put his arms around me and started squeezing and grabbing my fat. at first i felt really uncomfortable with him touching me, but after awile i was ok with it. i do have bigger breasts and a bigger butt now, so maybe thats why he is more attracted to me. i would get it is was chubby before and lost weight and then was more attracted to me, but i dont get it with this scenario. i know im his wife and he will always love me but you can love something and not be attracted to it like after my older sister had her baby she had gained 40 pounds because of her pregnancy and she told me that recently her husband could not even look at her. if it helps answer the question he is a big guy and has been oveweight since the day i met him

John steinbeck and the fitzgerald's Great Gatsby?

Hello. I haven't read Grapes of Wrath, but I have read other Steinbeck novels. The guy is fantastic. I have read The Great Gatsby before, but it has been a while. The main theme of The Great Gatsby has to do with the american dream. People used to believe that America was some promise land where you can achieve anything. Fitzgerald shows doubt in the American dream by showing us Gatsby. Gatsby is this really rich bootlegger(twist) and then kills him off at the very end. Gatsby really had to die for the novel to work.

This girl keeps jerking me around, but I still like her? How can I get her back?

Okay. DUDE. This sounds JUST like me. The girl. I am going to admit I am a tease and maybe she is the same way? Maybe she just WANTS you to like her. Best thing for you to do is just let her go. Keep her at a friend stage or something. You will get over her eventually. Try seeing another girl. DO NOT DATE HER AGAIN. Ever. Trust me, you'll only end up hurt. She probably gave you a second chance because she missed you or something? She definitely just wants you as a good close friend. There was probably something on her mind doing the movie? Or maybe it was you thinking it was awkward? Her not cuddling with you isn't awkward.. It just means she's not into you like that. She most likely talked to you about her ex cause she wants you to realize that she wants you as a friend or she's just playing you GOOD and wants you to be jealous. Don't walk away from this. But you can't have her.. If you can handle it, try being friends with benefits? That's the most you can get from her. OR! TALK TO HER. Talk to her about all of this. Make sure she's not giving you bullshit. I lied to my guy and told him I liked him when I didnt cause I knew he liked me a lot and I didnt want his feelings to be hurt. Maybe shes doing the same to you? Tell her you can handle the truth and you wont be mad at her if she has been lying about her feelings for you.

Feasibility of building an aqueduct from Missouri river flood plain to Kansas or oklahoma?

I'd agree with you but aqueducts, pipelines, etc.. and water diversion has it's issues. Who gets the water in years with little flooding? Can you count on water being delivered in dry seasons? Costs to build versus damage costs? Ecological impacts? Routes of aqueducts or pipelines? Still, it seems pointless to allow flooding to continue without some measures to alleviate it especially when Midwestern or Southern states could use the water at times.

I need some honest opinions...do you think i ever cross his mind? does cuddling indicate feelings?

i thought we really hit it off in every way. started talking. eventually hooked up..had sex 3 times in one night the first time. we probably had sex about 6 times total. we'd spoon and cuddle all night afterwards. he told me how attracted he is to me, and didn't pressure me to have sex. but then he stopped contacting me out of the blue, after i met all his friends and whatnot. i was confused..turns out he was seeing someone else. got himself a girlfriend :/ i called him back in february just to check if he was alive but the phone convo was a little weird. haven't heard from him since then..we had such a connection though, met totally randomly. ugh. do you think i ever cross his mind or not ?? we are friends on facebook as well.

Im so confused:/ What do i do?

ok so i have been dating this guy for a ouple of months, hes everything i have ever wnated except one thing.. and to be honest i dont know what it is. When we first met he asked me for my number and i gave it to him, then we started hanging out and he always wanted to talk and text. So he was kinda benig annoying but then i really started liking him. Well he is not originally from here, he moved here to be with this girl he was dating a while ago. Well we started hanging out more and more. and then we got a hotel together bc i live with my parents and he lives with her so we couldnt hang out with each other. He didnt try to do anything with me when we layed in the bed or anything. He knew i was cold the first night so he cuddled with me and he cuddled with me for a few days, and i made the first move.He had court one day, and he left at 7:30 in the morning and his court time was at 9:30. But he was gone all day. So he texted me from his phone pretending to be his brother and told me that he had gotten locked up and all kinds of things, i knew it was him bc i knew how he texted. But i played along and he asked me how i felt about him, and i told him then i told him that i knew it was him the whole time. So then we started dating and he has a hard time trusting people so he didnt open up. And he would just randomly not come back to the hotel, and he would tell me he was going to his brothers to do laundry. I believed him, until i found out his brother had moved to a diff city 4 days before. Well he bought me flowers and a card, and apologized for lieing. And these werent cheap flowers. So i thought he was sserious that time, well he did it again but didnt say he was going to his brothers he told me straight up he was going to that girls house, but he lives there. Theres no where else for him to go where im at bc all his family lives in a dif state. Si i understand he had to go back there sometimes so she didnt kick him out and he would have no where to go. But then he started opening up to me.. and everything but then the other night we were texting and he said that he missed me, and he wanted to hear my voice, and loved me. so i said call me and he said he was tired. so i didnt text him bac bc i went upstairs to do something and my phone was downstairs, and he had texted me twice and was like y are you mad and i said im not mad was just doing something, then i said i just dont understand y you wouldnt call someone if you missed them, and he said ok i will call you in a min when i get up out of bed and i said ok. he never called or texted me.. so we were suppose to go do something together today, and i woke up had no texts or missed calls from him. so i called him went straight to voicemail, 30 mins later i call him it rings but no answer. so for the rest of the day it went straight to voicemail, then i called him a hr ago and it rang but no answer.. its so weird and im so confused!!! sorry bout how long it is just had to get my point across so you would understand.. but someone tell me whats going on what should i think or do.. am i overreacting??

I was trying to settle this but something happened HELP sorry its so long,?

I think you should try to be friends. He hurt you, and once a cheater, you know. Instead of going back into the relationship, back off a bit, and try being friends first. If there is still romantic tension between you two after a month or two, maybe you should consider, but remember, he could hurt you as bad as he did the first time. Have pride, and don't let a douche bag walk all over you and play with your heart. Good luck :)

I like him alot but i cant do nothing about it???:( helpz?

ok. Hi. Um my heart has been recently broken by my guy best friend. Ya i fell for him, pretty stupied. Umm. My friend erica introduced me to a dude named austin! Hes same age, kinda emo,and hot! We get along real good. We have only been friendz for 3 months. Anyways only time i got to see him is when i went to ericas house. And well ive snuck out one night but only bc thats bc i saw the dude that broke my heart. Well he held me and told me everything is ok. Calm down. He cuddled with me. He told me he liked me. I told him the same. But we cant even do or go anywhere. My dad is overly protective and my mom is dead. By the way im 13 so is he..i dont think its considered sneakn out if u just walk down threw the paster and sit in an old deer stand. I just need to no how to spend more time with him?

How do I tell a guy I dont want to continue being with him when he goes back to college?

He and I started talking about a month ago, and we talk every day pretty much. We have hung out and cuddled and kissed but we aren't anything official, and I want it to stay that way. He is three years older than me and when I go back to high school in the fall he'll be going back to college. I really don't think its a good idea for us to get serious, and I don't want it to continue when he goes back to college because I want him to enjoy the whole college experience without all the added drama (he had a terrible first year), and I want to enjoy my junior year without having to worry about a boyfriend. I have told him this already (before we ever hung out) but he just keeps saying "well what if I don't want to talk to any other girls in college?" and "Lets wait until the end of the summer and see if you feel the same way"...I know I will and I don't want him to get the wrong idea. How should I address this with him again without making him feel bad or making him feel insulted? because I really do like him I just want to be free throughout high school...working hard in school is stressful enough without the added drama of a long distance relationship

Its been over 2 years but still no commitment not even dating. what should i do? am i getting played or what?

This guy and I have been sleeping together on and off for almost 2 years now, we go out to dinner or to do something fun, I know his whole family and go to his family gatherings, we can just lay in bed and talk and cuddle all night without having sex. He kisses me with passion not just a stupid peck, he says he cares about me. I am currently almost 9 months pregnant but not with his child, with someone i dated for a short time now my daughters father is no longer around and hasnt been since 8 weeks, then him and I started our weird relationship again and he calls every single night to tell me goodnight and to have me put my phone to my stomach so he can tell her goodnight, brings me food or whatever im craving at anytime of the night even tho he lives 20 minutes away, goes to my doctors appointment with me but yet we are still just friends. He was married before and his wife was killed in a car accident on there 2 year wedding anniversary. he was driving but it wasnt his fault. that was 6 years ago and she was his only love, they were together since they were 13. he is now 30 and keeps saying it makes a horrible bf because he focuses to much on his video games but yet ive never seen it. he also says he isnt ready for another commitement because he is scared of loosing someone else. Does it sound like im getting used just for sex or could there maybe be some truth to what he is saying. I really love him and he knows that but doesnt say anything back really. I hate giving up hope but ive never felt like this before with anyone else and i think thats why i always go back to him.

If you can raise your SAT then you can definitely get into at least half of your top five.

Why did this girl say im ugly?

I went on a double date with my friend. Mine was a blind date. I'm 21 she's 19. We went to the movies and out to eat. We cuddled a lot and kissed once and I was rubbing all over her leg. I know she liked it because she's like that and she sleeps around with guys a lot. But I never heard from her after that and she told her friend she regrets doing it because I'm ugly.... ?

Good luck! (:

If your relationship manages to progress past its current state, you are still going to experience this. Right now is when people should be texting and calling like crazy...it's still that fun, initial part of dating...and he's not doing it. It doesn't mean it doesn't like you, it just means he probably doesn't like texting/calling all the time and probably also likes having time to himself. If this bothers you (and it really seems it does), then you need to move on because your personalities don't jive.

I do! Sometimes when me and my girl cuddle she'll put her head up under my chin and listen to my heartbeat while I hold her. Since I'm taller, it's easier to do. (I'm one of those tough-girl lesbians, BTW). Kinda makes me feel like I'm protecting her or something. So do you like it or not?

Help. Vacationships ?

So I'm 18 and so is he and we have known each other for over 13 years and have been dating in and off until he moved 3 years ago and now we are just best friends but when we are together we tend to get a bit more friendly. (ie making out with out clothes and �Falling asleep with him holding me or watching really long movies just to cuddle for longer). He says he doesn't want a Long distance relationship but the vacationships kill me. I love doing all that stuff with him but i don't know what to do.

What does this all mean?

I'm really confused about how I feel. I'm a girl and I currently have a girlfriend but sometimes I don't feel like I'm really gay but I don't feel like I'm straight or bi either. When it comes to women physically and emotionally I feel way more attracted to them than I do to men. I almost never find a guy attractive or even notice them but I seem to find multiple girls attractive and think about dating them. The thing is it seems like with girls I picture more of the emotional side and cute cuddling and kissing type of stuff with them and that kind of stuff makes me happy. Whats weird is with guys I don't think of any of that and I've never been a big fan of penises but if I watch porn, lesbian porn never turns me on but straight porn or something with a man (not gay male porn though) turns me on a lot. I don't understand what this means though. I've done a lot with my girlfriend but sometimes while we're doing stuff I don't feel as horny as I think I should be but I don't know if that means I don't like girls as much as I thought or if I'm just not as into her as I was before. I still like kissing her and making out with clothes on, its just once things heat up i stop enjoying it. What does this mean? Any advice to make things more clear to myself?

Which novel in this list should I read for summer?

"Emma" by Jane Austen is a great read! Well, honestly, any Jane Austen book is a great read. If you've ever seen the movie Clueless, you'll love reading Emma and noticing all of the little similarities between the two. I believe that Clueless is actually loosely based on Emma, as a matter of fact. Read it, love it, then give Pride and Prejudice a go!

Can you trade in a car that you have a Drive Time (DT) Loan on at another dealership?

I have a car loan through Drive Time (DT Financial Corp) and i was entertaining the idea since my credit has improved drastically of getting a new car. My question is if i went to another dealership like Ford, Honda, Chevy etc. and I used the car as a trade in, will they apply the balance i still owe from the DT to the new loan, or because it is a Drive Time loan they won't do this like a traditional car loan?

Women, what are some things a guy could do from miles away to get you thinking about them?

i graduated college 5 years ago. Throughout the time there I had a good friend, who i was really attracted to and loved, but bc of different circumstances (i was with her best friend at college before i met her) i couldnt be with. all we had were a few kisses, cuddling, a lot of flirting and a few serious talks. after schol we then didnt talk for 5 years until she messaged me out of the blue Saturday. I still love her, i know that bc i cant stop thinking about her. now she lives in maryland, i live in boston. how can i smoothly find out if she still thinks of me romantically? nd how can i do things to improve her interest from so far away?

I would like to join the US Marine Corps, as a commissioned officer, but I wish not to leave the US. I know it all movie stuff, but I'd like to do something like Tom Cruise in a few good men. Have a job at home but still in the military. How can you do this? And what exactly is the military police under the Marine Corp? What are their jobs, and where do they reside, and do they do any fighting?

How exactly do you cuddle with your friend? Help!?

Me and my friend are going to cuddle today. We're both girls and I've never cuddled with anyone before. And well she has and I don't want to suck. So what should I do to make her wanna cuddle me again?

If we closed the notorious multinational corp loopholes, how much could we lower the overall business tax rate?

The issue is not "loopholes". First of all all those "loopholes" were put there for specific reasons by the Congress (not saying they're good reasons, but they didn't get there by chance). The issue is the marginal rate of taxation. If corporate tax rates were, say, 15%, it would not pay to spend billions of dollars to avoid them. They would just pay. In Ireland for example, the tax rate is 15%. Corporate taxes as a percent to GDP are higher in Ireland than they are in the US where marginal rates can be as high as 50% (depending on what state you're in).

Help me with my cat?

My 11 month old female cat is hissing, growling & attacking my 3 young female cats... I have 8 cats all together... but my female cat bella if fine with the older cats - She just attacks her sister and the 2 younger cats... the 2 younger cats are also female the 1 is about 8 monthes and the other 1 is 8 weeks. Apart from the 8 week old cat have been spayed so thats not it... Up untill about a month ago bella and her sister and the other cats used to cuddle up together eat from the same bowls and licked eachother.. but all of a sudden bella has been hissing at them and recently hissing at me.. but when shes in a room on her own and i go in there shes fine with me and puurs and licks me.. its just when she sees the other 3.. But i only just had the 8 week old kitten last week and she was like it a few weeks before that so its not the new kitten doing it. So i really dont know why bella is doing it... she goes out alot longer than the other cats?? Maybe thats why???

Steinbeck's says the problem in "The Grapes of Wrath" are results not causes.?

I dont quite understand what that statement means. I understand the illumination steinbeck tries to introduce to his readers by stateing all the activities of the migrant works and small times farmers and what they had to undergo during the great depression. Although the question above elludes me and If someone has more insight on if, that would be much appreciated.

Do you agree with this quote made by famed American author John Steinbeck?

"Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat, but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires."

I need information on Job Corp.?

Hi, my name is Chrystian.. I'm considering entering Job Corp this August, but need a bit of Information on it, that the official Job Corp website does not provide. Firstly, I'll be 16 this August, so I'm old enough. I'm supposed to be in 10th grade this year but dropped out two years ago... I've dealt with a lot this last year, and am ready to get my life together and get back on track. I want as much info as you can give please. It means a great deal to me because I will be moving 5 hours away from my family, and it will be difficult for me to get used to all of the changes. The number one question I'd like you to answer is: How long does Job Corp last? Like does it go by semester or year round? How many people will live in the same dorm as you? Do you share restrooms/showers with other people? Another important question. How often can you leave a month or whatever to visit your family? Or can they come to the dorm and visit you? Finally, how long average does it take to get your ged/high school diploma? I don't expect this to be a piece of cake.. I just would like to know. Any other information you can provide would be great. Thank you.

Marine Corp question. Please help?

Okay. So here is my plan. I don't expect it to go exactly as planned so don't be bashing me or whatever. I really wan to join the Marine Corp. I am a junior in high school and being a Marine is something I have wanted since freshmen year. I want to graduate high school and enlist in the Marines. However, after I get out of boot camp, I want to join the reserves and go to college to get at least a 4 year degree. My plans after that is to switch to active duty and hopefully get an MOS as an engineer of some sort. Would all of this be possible? Like can I join the reserves, goto college, then come back and be an engineer for the marines? Sorry for such the long explanation, I just really want some specific info for once. Thanks ahead of time. And if you could, I would like to know what all a marine Corp engineer does and what I can do as a civilian after I am done serving by using what I learned in the Marine Corp.

Why does my 1 year old kitten/cat attack scratch and bite my face and hair?

My fiance and I adopted 2 cats from a local shelter about 5 months ago. Karl (our 2 year old neutered male) is soooo sweet and smart and he loves to jump and play. Karl can jump for a toy/treat over 4 feet! He also sleeps in our bed at night, right next to my head. <3 Raja on the other hand... he likes to hide and can only eat a treat if its hand fed from me. Raja is younger (vet thinks about 8 months) and he is very aggressive. I feel that he is this way because my fiance FORCES him to cuddle and be held... I let raja go free when he cries, my fiance does not. He says that all cats learn to be cute after this... I think its making raja more mean. What do you think? I could really use some help/support here because I have never had indoor cats before this. Also, Raja scratches my fiance's face HARD and makes him bleed nearly every day. I don't like this behavior but I feel like its not the cats fault.

He gets really, really nervous with physical intimacy. What should I do to help?

Don't push him to do anything, make sure the two of you are completely comfortable around each other. Try to make him feel at ease. Everything should then begin to come naturally :)

Should I Tell Him I Like Him?

So since March I've been dating a guy I was set up with by my Aunt and Uncle and their friend (the guys older brother). I really like this guy, and over the past few months we've held hands, hugged, cuddled, texted, hung out, gone on dates, etc. Last night I was at his house and while we were talking he brought up the fact that his friends have asked about me and apparently at his basketball tournament, when we walked into the gym and went to sit by them, they all clapped for us. (I didn't notice until he told me later... Yes, I'm oblivious.) ANYWAY... so he admitted to us "going out", meaning we're dating, but not together, per say. So, my question is... should I just tell him I like him next time we hang out? I kinda need help... (:
