  It’s a Christmas CLASSIC. Santa comes down the chimney with a big black bag. He finds Debbie, and tells her she has been very very naughty this year…do not tell me you haven’t seen it.

  Starving never works Period. Why don’t people understand that? Dieting is not a “race” that you can win. Your body is smarter than you, and if you try to starve yourself, it will backfire on you and slow your metabolism to a snail’s pace, You will eventually get hungry and when you eat, whatever minimal weight you may have lost will come flying back on.
  
  Eat HEALTHY. Eat SMALLER PORTIONS and cut out JUNK. Get some moderate exercise three or four times a week and in time you will reach your ideal weight. It is so easy. People want to make it harder than it is. Fads do not work. Crash dieting does not work and can be dangerous. Good luck!

• (1 vote) I’m a troll!
  

  Perhaps the poster is referring to the fact that about half the posters are hormonal teenagers, about a quarter are delusional street people asking for money….and this is true!! I was pretty shocked myself. But when you hang around for a while, you weed through it and up bubbles some really interesting, intelligent, kind people. And I have gotten some great responses from people here!! I have had “real” friends who have not taken as much time (real–ha) as some of the folks here that are total strangers. Hopefully along the way I have given on response that helped somebody. I hope so. But it’s not a horrible place. You just have to weed through it. Like a thrift shop—you gotta look through some junk….to find a treasure.

  [quote eunique]This has been going on for awhile, you are his crutch. Wants you, don’t want you, wants to fight with you, to see if you love him, obsessively professes love for you, then when he thinks it’s safe and you are all tangled up in the nonending web, he skulks off to ignore you, probably flirting with a nearby flight of fancy, who sees his instability right off and runs from his game, and then he returns to torment you. Truly a baby, not a Man. Will not Commit and, would it be worth it? You could never Trust in the next day …[/quote]
  
  WOW!!! I am extremely impressed. You are very astute. He is an infant, not a man. You are so right on all counts. If I “know” that, why does it still hurt?

• So I ended it after three years.
  

  That was my plan. In his letter he implored me to meet him for coffee. I told him that there was no point in hashing over the drama. There is no easy way or right way to break up, and I just said that I had made up my mind and it was over, He said he would not “accept that” without a final face to face.

  I am not holding my breath. Since his divorce five years ago he has acted like an infant and I see no signs of change. He contacted my DAUGHTER… how do I make him go away?
