Do you ever just cry and you don't have any idea why you are crying? It doesn't happen to me a lot but it has happened enough that I know to just allow myself a good cry and I will feel better afterwards. Does this happen to you...

Whisp1976 This happens to me once a month when I get the dreaded PMS. Anything will set me off, it could be a song, a movie or just a sad thought.

Whisp1976 I won't get my hands on it until my niece flies over the Atlantic to stay here for five weeks on Tuesday. I am going to read her copy. I was going to buy my own but my mother said "Don't you dare!!!!!!" I can't wait. I'm very excited!

Whisp1976 I think this is a very difficult question to answer. My favourites are probably Emily Bronte and George Orwell. I also enjoy Ian McQewan and JK Rowling very much. I think the answer very much depends who you are and what your taste is.

My husband and I are two different races. We have been fortunate enough to avoid racism in public, but I haven't met any of his extended family, because I am black. They have all met our daughter and couldn't stop raving about her...

Whisp1976 I dated a British man that was half Yemeni in my very early twenties for about six months, and some of the older members of my extended family made a cutting remark or two about it. Apparently when they were young "only a certain type of girl dated an Arab". I...

i once saw a post on here in which a girl said that her best friend told her that the reason why she didn't have a boyfriend was because she normally went for the gorgeous, popular types. Perhaps her friend meant well, but it...

Whisp1976 I'm not sure that this was an insult. It sounds to me more of an observation. Gorgeous and polular men and women can be fickle, irrespective of the attractiveness of who they are dating. It sounds like the friend was just trying to give some useful advice. My...

Back in the old days, women didn't enjoy watching sports on television. Now, I see my aunts and older female cousins, jumping and screaming for their favorite teams. Back then, it was something that the wives seemed to just put...

Whisp1976 You are not alone. I'm a Brit and the men over there are usually football/soccer nuts. I just don't get it. Why watch a bunch of doofuses kick a ball away from themselves and then try to get it again on a muddy field in the freezing rain?

Do companies really think consumers will be inclined to purchase, or sign up for their products when they interrupt things like family meals by telephoning, or knockin gon your door at 6pm? Obviously they are aware that most...

Whisp1976 Telemarketers interrupt not only my meals, but my life, and I am quite curt with them as a consequence. Joe Bloggs may just be doing his job, so I don't curse or insult the telemarketer , but I will make it clear that I don't have time for them. In my view...

Whisp1976 I call a misplaced sense of humour a warped sense of humour. I can be warped in the things I laugh at. I can also be dry, sarcastic, crude or witty. A great deal depends on my mood. One thing is for certain I love to laugh and make others laugh. There have...

Whisp1976 I will usually admit when I am in the wrong.If I am being very honest, I am less inclined to do so if the person who I have wronged is smug or sanctimonious and getting too much pleasure from being in the right. If it is a person I respect or like, I have no...

Whisp1976 You're mind is closed and your post makes you sound like a fascist. I believe that abortion shouldn't be taken lightly or used as a means of contraception. I also do not think that an abortion should be carried out after 8 weeks. However, there are situations...

If you are trying to reduce salt, or fighting a losing battle to encourage a family member to cut down on their salt, try using rock salt in a salt mill. It is much harder to get a lot of salt, because you have to keep twisting...

Whisp1976 It's a good idea. Personally I use salt substitute because my husband has high blood pressure. He doesn't like the taste of it as much as real salt, but tough luck.

Whisp1976 I think he should be charged with manslaughter and spend at least ten years in prison. Drinking an driving endangers the lives of other people, to do so is to show an abhorent disragard for human life, and that attitude should be punished.
