How do you help a friend, when U aren't supposed 2 know what they're going thru?

Amber @AmbiePam (95623) • United States 5 Apr 07

First of all, let me apologize for the abbreviations of you (U) and to (2). There wasn't enough space for the question without doing that. Now, for the question. This friend of mine, who is about 2 years older than I (28) is...

daffodilpixi Just be there for her. Make yourself available if she decides she wants to talk about it. IF you're good friends, then eventually, she'll confide in you. I can imagine she's having a tough time of it right now and has a lot going on in her life. She's...

daffodilpixi I certainly don't think it's necessary to have a romantic relationship, but I do think it's important to have a good friend. Humans are very social creatures and we don't do well without social interaction. A good friend provides everything that a romantic...

daffodilpixi I have several friends that I know I could talk to about anything. My family is also the same way (providing it's not about religion) There are a few things that I wouldn't talk to my husband about, but that's not because I don't trust him. I wouldn't talk...

daffodilpixi Because it's a first, we all tend to remember. Those memories are always with us. I remember my first love very clearly. It was a wonderful experience, but like most firsts, it didn't last. I'm no longer in love with him, but I'll never forget him. I...

Why girls like to be proposed n why its not the other way?

coolnash @coolnash (110) • Mauritius 3 Jul 08

i know that it has been always like this...but dont u think there are boys who cant express themselves n if u(girls) like someone why dont u take the first step?

daffodilpixi Firstly, I think a proposal is something that shouldn't happen without discussion ahead of time. I think that "popping the question" without first making sure that it's something both people want can lead to a problems. So, if both people have talked about...

daffodilpixi Honestly, it depends on whether they really need help or not. It also depends on what they need help for. If my friend really needed my help, I would definitely be there. That's what friends are for. Sometimes, when a friend has continued to make bad...

daffodilpixi My absolute favorite chocolate bar is the Endangered Species Panther Bar. It's 80% cocoa, but still smooth and not bitter at all. It's so delicious and rich. It's worth the $3.00 that they charge ;)

Don't parents teach their kids manners any more?

dreamertink @dfollin (25459) • United States 30 Jun 08

I was raised that when we go into someone else's home we do not walk around in the other rooms unless we are invited to.The only thing you do ask is if you need to use the bathroom or if they are saying something like,"Oh my...

daffodilpixi Yes, I teach my children manners, but that doesn't mean that they always remember what I taught them. I'd be horrified if I found out that they were behaving the way that you described. I would hope that the neighbors would let me know if my kids were being...

Favorite word

HISMINEOURS @HISMINEOURS (77) • United States 30 Jun 08

Among all the reading I do sometimes I come across a word that I really like. This is odd I know, but do you have a favorite word?? A couple of my favorites are Quarrel and Ambiance. How about you??

words

daffodilpixi Onomatopoeia is one of the best words ever! Say it, you know you want to :) It just feels so nice coming off the tongue I'm also fond of travesty. Again, I think it's just he way it feels when I say it.

TheDevil @TheDevil (840) • India 30 Jun 08

daffodilpixi Oh, definitely! For the most part, I don't keep books that I don't feel are worth reading a second time. My library is over 100 books now! There's something comforting about sitting down and reading a story you're already familiar with. Even after rereading...

graceandowen @graceandowen (1637) 30 Jun 08

My fave book genre has to be autobiographys or biographys i do like fiction books occasionally but i would much rather read about somebodys life story.

daffodilpixi For the most part, I read as an escape from everyday life, so I'm more likely to read fiction or fantasy over biographies. That doesn't mean that I haven't read my share of biographies, but the ones I enjoy are few and far between. My favorite genres are...

how many books can you read in one week

abarrojr @abarrojr (85) • Philippines 30 Jun 08

How many books can you read in one week? Or will it take more than one week for you to finish a book?

book

8 responses

daffodilpixi If it's an easy read, I can get through a book in a day or two. Some of the older classics take me longer because the writing doesn't flow the same as current books. So, I guess it really depends on what I'm reading, but I could fit 3 books in during the...

daffodilpixi The only author that I've found myself waiting eagerly to read more from has been Obert Skye. His books are geared towards adolescents, but they're rich with intellectual humor and brilliant dialogue. My favorite author is Ray Bradbury. He's such an amazing...

If You Had The Money To Spend, Would You REALLY Want This?

pyewacket @pyewacket (43903) • United States 30 Jun 08

In one of my discussions I asked if anyone has made really strange assumptions about you, and how people can get really bizarre erroneous ideas about a person. One of the repliers jokingly said, Oh, come on, I saw you leave your...

daffodilpixi If I was wealthy, I wouldn't be blowing my money on overpriced luxury items. Sure, I'll pay more for something that is constructed better, but you can't tell me that I pay $700 for pants they're $650 better than the other designer jeans I've purchased! I...

Do you design your own crafts?

gmakesmoney @gmakesmoney (2923) • United States 26 Jun 08

Do you like to come up with your own design when you craft or do you follow a book or pattern? I do both. For complex things I like to start with a pattern and then alter it until I have an end result that I love. And sometimes...

daffodilpixi If it's something I'm not familiar with ,then I like to start with a pattern. After doing that a few times, I'll start to branch out on my own. So, I guess it all depends on what I'm making and if it's new to me or not.

Does anyone have a Degu? They are too cute! I have one, and it's name is PONCHO!

daffodilpixi I used to have 6 of them, and they have been my favorite pets ever! They are social animals, so it's best to buy them in pairs. If they are kept alone, they can become depressed if you don't spend enough time interacting with them. My first degu was...

Everybody, who know a little more about degus, know that they like to live in pairs. They need attention, and the best choice is to buy 2 or more degus at a time. My girlfriend has 1 girl and 1 boy degues, I have 2 boys. I...

daffodilpixi I had 4 girls and 2 boys. I actually found that the girls were more aggressive toward eachother than the boys were. So,I think it has a lot to do with how many there are, and the individual personality of the animal. A good way to eliminate fighting is...
