Hey Tracy...Sally Hansen has a product line for hands and feet only...it was the only one i saw that really did what it claimed to do...(it comes in orange coloured tubes...) even the one for cracked heels did the job...
Aveeno is the only skin cream i can think of that works on severely dry winter skin...then once it clears up (because its about $10 a bottle) you can go back to using the Vaseline for really dry skin...
If you're not opposed to it...try baby oil in the shower..when your skin is heated and pores open from your shower it absorbs better..and then when you dry your skin off its not as "oily"....
Good luck...I hate the "adjustment" period between summer sweaty skin and winter dry skin....
Always amazed that this question keeps getting asked...by both the men and the women...what is so difficult to understand that women want the "same" things that men do in a relationship...that they are looking for the same "qualities" in a man as men look for in a woman....
We want someone to share our life with, to laugh with to cry with...we want someone to share our goals with, our ambitions with.. We want someone who will love us, respect us and "care" for us...
Is that any different than what men want in a woman??
I'm in EXACTLY the same position you are in twingles...right down to the hair/makeup...
I'm doing pretty much the same thing as you...and choosing my "battles" very carefully....she is a straight A high academic student and needs to feel her hard work counts for something...so i do find myself tending to lean towards giving her what will make her happy as long as its not an "extreme"...and providing her grades remain the same....
I cannot imagine what it would be like to be at school in this day and age...and i'll tell you girls can be more brutal than the boys any day of the week...
The most i can hope for is that all that i taught her will come into play when she is out there and has to make decisions for herself...
You make your children...you don't make their minds...
Hi Bess..thanks for the tip...I can't manage straightening my hair myself, my arm gets too tired, and i've NEVER been able to get it as smooth as the hairdresser does...
I've seen the biosilk products...do they make it for curly hair?..to keep it more manageable??
BTW...thanks for the song...can we get a few lines from it??...not sure i've heard it...
Yes a lie is a lie..no matter how you "term" it...which is why i said...
..."though if i am really her friend, or she is really mine, she would give me her honest opinion when asked..."...
I never advocated either types of lie...
But both your scenarios are still different, I think...in the instance of a "white lie" it was to spare someone's feelings...in the original question regarding the phone number and your whereabouts...what would be the purpose (benefit) in that "lie"???
These things will have to eventually come out...however there is a place and time for everything...
Not every person you meet, will you have to, nor should you, divulge your personal information to...some of them will not be ready for such detail so early on in the relationship...at this time you are still in the stages of getting to "know" one another...not discuss the legal proceedings of your divorce...
If you feel the bitterness over your divorce is still there...then you need to evaluate whether this will affect your "dating" and decide if you truly are ready to "move on" just yet...
For myself personally, if i truly care about someone, i will stand by them through thick and thin...but if i am not yet "involved" with someone...and I get an earful of this within our first couple of dates...yes i would have second thoughts, because though i will not run from "discord"...i don't purposely invite it into my life either...that's just my own personal thought by the way...
I don't consider the circumstances of my life to be "baggage"...
Baggage to me only occurs when you drag bits and pieces of your former relationships into the future with you refusing to let it go..
What you have to deal with in your divorce is part and package of a marital relationship falling apart...and anyone who has been divorced on here knows that... Some are nastier than others...some more time consuming...and yet others are still "civil"....but thats just the way the cards are dealt...
Poster has every right to stay away from "separated" people if she feels there are too many "issues" to deal with (she speaks from experience i believe she said)...I have also found "divorced" men who have just as much unresolved issues and no closure..but for a piece of paper that legally absolves them from their spouse...
As far as waiting to jump into another relationship...only you can know if you're ready or not...sometimes its a matter of just needing a "shoulder" to lean on...and you have mistaken this for needing a "relationship"...sometimes there just isn't the time available to invest into a new relationship so it has to wait whether you want it or not...
Bum Touching...
...chunk huh?....
