votenoonpineapple With all due respect, there is so much negative hype about this vaccine, it's ridiculous. The vaccine contains things like water, salt, and dead bits of the virus (like any vaccine), so that your body can safely build up antibodies. And if you look at...

Is it taboo to date a friends ex?

lynkshadow @lynkshadow (299) • Canada 4 Dec 09

Personally I have never done this because its one of my rules like don't date at work. Then again your friends ex could end up being the love of your life. Is this a taboo area? What do you fellow mylotters think?

votenoonpineapple It depends on how long they were together, how long ago it was, and how the friend thinks about it. But, in all reality, there could still be feelings there, which could make it hard for the friend to hear about the two of you, or to spend time with you...

Discouraging

ThomasWest3 @ThomasWest3 (36) • United States 5 Oct 09

Is anyone else discouraged by the blatantly racist representations of President Obama that seem to be floating around everywhere? For a country that was supposed "past racism," we still seem awfully full of racism.

Friends can be lovers but ex-Lovers can't be friends

fler @feodda (579) • Philippines 5 Oct 09

There are times friends can be lovers. And as lovers, we will start as friends to build-up the friendship and trust. But ex-lover's is rarely to be friends again, due to the reasons of break-ups. There are sad, happy or worst...

votenoonpineapple I think it all depends on how long you are with the person, and how things ended. Someone I was with for years, I don't think I could stay friends with. It would be too difficult. However, there are people that I dated for a month or two that I'm still...

votenoonpineapple When you see him start to even stare at your puppy, sort of nudge him firmly from the side and say no. You might have to do this a lot of times in a row, at first. You want to stop him from fixating on the puppy, which comes before the attack. It might help...
