Young Love... any advice?

valentinesdiner @valentinesdiner (1214) • United States 6 Aug 09

My daughter and her brand new fiance are so in love. What is some advice I can give them for the short run as they plan their life tigether and the long run? I want to tell them about keeping the sheen of a shiny new love...

new love

dragonspirit88 My advice is not to take out your problems on your partner, especially in the current economic climate. So many couples argue about money and jobs and co-workers - problems that aren't even between them and it wrecks their love. I watched my parents for years...

cosmicthing2 @cosmicthing2 (22) 6 Aug 09

I am new to mylot and slightly confused about the earnings, I have just signed up and posted several discussions and replies and stuff, but how long does it take for a balance to appear as mine still says 0.00? How much do you get...

dragonspirit88 The earnings update everyday and depending on where you are in the world depends on when they update. I'm in the UK and they update about 3pm. There is not set limits on earnings, but it seems to be the more quality your responses are the more you get paid (so...

stupid

dragonspirit88 The stupidest thing I ever did was telling a boy I thought I loved that I loved him and getting totally and utterly rejected. But that wasn't why it was stupid. It was stupid because I didn't actually love him I just wanted to be wanted and as he was such a...

Citychic @Citychic (4067) • United States 6 Aug 09

Hey friends, have you ever had a dream when you felt like you didn't want to wake up from it. I had one of those dreams this morning. It was almost like I knew that the dream was so much better than my reality. So I just wanted to...

dragonspirit88 I sometimes have dreams that I never want to wake up from and they usually involve my boyfriend and they are magical. I know that sounds really cheesy but it's why I don't want the wake up. More common though I have nightmares where terrible things happen to...

mobhomeir @mobhomeir (7558) • Philippines 6 Aug 09

Having a girlfriend will increase your financial burden or not?

sunshineyunlong @sunshineyunlong (271) • China 5 Aug 09

I am a college student.Many of my friends who fall in love with their lover find that their living costs increase rapidly after they fall in love compared with the days when they are single.Therefore they have to be more provident...

living cost

4 responses

dragonspirit88 Living costs can increase and the amount it increases depends on the girl and her 'needs'. Since me and my boyfriend are both students we tend to agree to buy very small presents for each other on birthdays etc, but we still probably spend more than if we were...

Knowing someone well before marrying them

Hello all. It is a good idea for us to know someone as well as we can before marriage. Some people know one another just a short time, some much longer, and some hardly at all before they marry. From your own...

dragonspirit88 Like most people here I would say that you would have to know someone for at least a year before you should marry them but then I think it depends how much close contact there is in that year. I know couples that have been together three or four years and then...

On a first date, any cost should be split between both

faridii @faridii (79) • Pakistan 5 Aug 09

On a first date, any cost should be split between both PEOPLE 50:50? how about you? what do u think?

6 responses

dragonspirit88 I know guys really like to pay for all the bill, but I never let them do it because I think in the modern world its not necessary. Men and women have the same earning potential nowadays and I feel terrible if I let the guy pay for everything. I feel like I'm...

Do you enjoy films of books that you have read?

dragonspirit88 @dragonspirit88 (40) 3 Aug 09

I have noticed that whenever I have read a book and then I see any films that have been made of these books I feel very disappointed and that the film does not represent the amazing feeling I had when I read the book. The more the...

dragonspirit88 Yeah you get so much more from a book!! I know that films are limited to how much content it can have because it can't be much longer than 3hrs max, but it just seems like films have nowhere near the detail of books.

Would an increase in participation money, mylot could become number one

suchi60 @suchi60 (912) • India 4 Aug 09

I am not an old member of mylot, but after studying the trend, I feel that with a slightly higher fee for participating in discussions, mylot could become the most sought after social network in the world. This may not be a...

increased participation money

3 responses

dragonspirit88 Yes more than likely as so many people are addicted to non-paying social networking sites that the ones that pay the most would eventually become the most sought after. If you love social networking, what more can be better than getting paid to do...

Hardback or Paperback?

dragonspirit88 @dragonspirit88 (40) 3 Aug 09

I really hate reading hardback books because they are so bulky that I can't carry them around with me whereever I go and sometimes so heavy I get tired of lifting them. Some people prefer hardback because they can resist more...

paperback

4 responses

dragonspirit88 Yeah its a good point about the cover bending. I always try to keep my paperbacks in perfect condition without cracking the spine or bending the cover, by it is neigh on impossible at the beginning or end especially on very thick books.
