How do you feel when people lie to you?

Dominique25 @Dominique25 (9464) • United States 19 Aug 11

phatchyck If someone I know well lies to me about something important or lies often, I feel betrayed and no longer desire to continue a relationship with them. Since relationships are based on trust, how can you trust someone who is not honest? You will never know when...

I'm not a fashion victim!

Toni @toniganzon (72281) • Philippines 18 Aug 11

How would you define fashion victim? A person wearing odd things? A person wearing something that isn't in? A person wearing a non popular brand of clothes? A person wearing inappropriate style? I don't have a definition of...

phatchyck My definition of a fashion victim is someone who does not look comfortable in the clothes they are in. We have all seen those people who put together the most unusual ensembles. However, I have seen many of them carry them well and receive compliments on the...

phatchyck Well you are not the first or the last person to make that mistake. I would have said, "I apologize. I couldn't quite see you in the back of the room. Let's hear what you have to say." and move right along. If there is a long pause after such an error, it just...

phatchyck I love lemon and have used it for years as both an astringent (during my teen years) and as a natural bleach for my elbows. It also has a pleasant smell but excessive use can dry my skin so I use it one time every week on the elbows. I am also a big fan of...

Fear of Aging

Toni @toniganzon (72281) • Philippines 17 Aug 11

Aging is unstoppable. Every year we grow older. As the time goes by we may grow weaker, less active, gain more weight, grow white hairs. This is the fact of life. It's unavoidable. But why do some people still fear getting old?...

Should parenting skills be taught in school?

crazynurse @crazynurse (7482) • United States 18 Aug 11
