3 years ago I got a divorce from my husband. Most of "our" friends were actually "his" friends, so I didn't try to "take" them from him, that's just not right. However, I still don't have any friends of my own, or actually I...

faerielady It's just finding the real friends that is a bit difficult. I'm joining a local gardening chapter and hopefully I'll meet people there that have the same or similar interests. That way we can all get together and do fun stuff, even if it's just pulling...

faerielady Almost all my friends are online. I have one local friend and our schedules are so different that it's difficult to get together and actually do anything. We both work days, but she's across town and in school herself, and her son is special needs so he...

faerielady The problem that I've had is that as a single mom, I have responsibilities that other people/parents don't have. I take my kid pretty much everywhere with me, I can't do things that other people do if the activities aren't kid-friendly, and things of that...

faerielady This has been exactly my experience. It only works if *I* do all the work. I have to call them, I have to email them, I have to make all the plans. Then if they can't do it that day that's planned, I'm the one that has to adjust my schedule to theirs. While...

A friend of mine, she always late for every appointment, sometimes, even her job. Her punctuality is negative in my impression. I remember that, sometimes, I have to remind her of her schedule for her dentist appointment. But she...

faerielady Personally, I don't tend to hang out with people who are chronically late. Every now and again is fine... but all the time? Yeah, not so much. Makes me feel like they don't care enough about whatever is planned, therefore they don't have the respect to show up...

So, money can be a trouble sometimes. People can fight for money because it is more important for our daily life. They can't let go of a small profit. Money can get between friendship too. Don't you think so? My friend told me...

faerielady I learned through hard experience to never mix money and friendship. When I was younger (and much more naive) I lived with my roommate and let her use my credit card once in order for her to order something small online that she couldn't find in the store....

faerielady I know this is going to sound rather trite... but don't dwell on life without her. You need to enjoy every moment that you have with her *right now*. Obsessing about her condition might actually cause you not to enjoy the stuff that you guys do together. I...

My dog sleeps in my room at night. She has her own little bed in my room. When everyone is ready to go to bed every night, she will walk into my room to her little bed and sleeps on it. But somehow, every morning...

faerielady I'm one of those people who believe that dogs shouldn't sleep in the bed (dominance issues can come of that, and I have a rather large breed dog). However, my dog has no desire to sleep on the bed... instead, he prefers to sleep in the hallway between my door...

I have had many pets over the years. I love animals and having a pet is such a worthwhile experience. However, I do think there is a limit to how many pets one household can tolerate. The most pets I've ever owned at the same time...

faerielady I think the answer to this is... "it depends". It depends on the person because some people just can't handle pets, or only a limited number of pets. It depends on the quality of care... I honestly believe that if you have a choice of buying *good* dog food...
