• (2 votes) I did something stupid today.
  

  If I was you, I’d be ready to expect the full force of the consequences for what you have sewn. If you break it off and manage to come up with a reason that doesn’t make you look like a complete jerk, then you may retain the friendship.
  
  If you come clean that it was all a rouse from the get go, then I expect you’ll be leaving that conversation with one less friend, a sore cheek, and a lesson learned (I’d hope). All which you probably deserve for being so manipulative.

  @Anon
  To the point about the number of replies on this post in particular: Everyone ON Help can relate to being a part of Help. However, for all the other posts, not every member of Help has advice to give or share on that topic, so the pool of available repliers gets a lot smaller.

• (2 votes) My live in boyfriend plays games on his lap top, alot.
  

  Game or computer addiction can be a real problem in relationships.
  
  First step: ban computers and TV’s from the bedroom. Period. That room should be for the sacred acts of sleeping, dressing, and getting your groove on.
  
  After that, you’ll have to judge if it’s helped enough or if more steps need to be taken to deal with any problems caused by his involvement with ‘the machine’

• (1 vote) complicated sex stuff… i dont really know how
  

  It’s not nearly as “weird” as you might be thinking, really. Lots of people have rape fantasies. Some people are bold enough to act them out responsibly with a partner that is willing to stop when needed.
  
  If you approach your boyfriend about it and he’s not down for it, then you’ve lost nothing. But if you can work out a safe plan for the role playing, it might be fun.
  
  Over all, however, it might be a weeee bit early in a relationship to be needing much outside of “normal” sex.

• (1 vote) How do i install windows 2000 professional to my messed-up-virus infected-slow computer?
  

  Well, if you aren’t worried about saving anything, just slip the disc in, restart, and chose to boot from CD. Just follow the instructions at that point.

• Would girls want to marry a Virgin?
  

  To use a rough analogy:
  
  “I would not buy a car without a test drive.”
  
  If you truly believe marriage is lifetime commitment, then walking into the emotional and physical commitment blindly would be foolish, almost verging on dishonest.
  
  I usually suggest that a few things have to happen before I’d consider getting married:
  
  1. Live together
  2. Have Sex
  3. Get into a really big argument
  
  How you deal with those things will tell you if you’re really in for life.

• Is dating in highschool pretty much pointless cause thats starting to occur to me.
  

  [quote Singer_Scarlett]a light, fun, casual relationship wouldn’t be so bad…[/quote]
  
  That’s what I’d advise for most high schoolers. The whole “married as high school sweethearts” is the exception (by far) not the rule.
  
  [quote nicoleee(:]ive dated too many and seen too many of my friends who date them and only get used. i mean its really not a great feeling.[/quote]
  
  True, but who says you have to be the one getting used? Boys are pretty easy to manipulate ;)

  [quote Nante]So fire fox isnt faster and stuff?[/quote]
  
  Firefox is a bit faster in places here and there. However, what FF really does better is (these days) security and extendability. FF has tons of themes and LOADS of extensions that do everything from block every ad ever to some hard core nitty gritty stuff like disassembling the webpage you’re viewing an examining it piece by piece at a source code level.
  
  The soon-to-come version of FF is going to have a faster javascript engine than anything out there (neck in neck with Google’s “Chrome” browser.) Thus sites employing lots of JS (which is really common now with AJAX) will work better in FF.
  
  As noted, keep both around, since IE is heavily tied into the Windows OS.
