I'm curious, what do you guys think about the woman being taller in a relationship. I'm a pretty short guy (about 5'5"). Couple of my friends don't understand what the big deal is, but they're average height or taller and don't have to really worry about it.

Is it weird, or should I start thinking outside the box more?


I was taller then my last boyfriend. It gave me an edge.

Miguel- Why worry about how tall she is? If you like her, you may end up kicking yourself later on for not really trying. You never know. She might be amazing or she might not. 50/50 chance. Why not give it a try? Though being a woman the height of my counter part never really mattered to me... though I usually go for people over 6 ft tall and I'm only 5'1. ninja

Norman- I'm sorry about your board. I hope you get everything straightened out, alright. I have a few friends that ST (mod) on oWoD sites.. a lot of the same stuff sometimes happens there. people make no since to me. *shrugs*

The asses should have gotten a swift kick in the lower extremities.

You know what one of the worst parts of wanting to end your existence is? The realization that, when the time comes, there will be no one there to try and save you.

THE UNWRITTEN #1
Written by Mike Carey
Art by Peter Gross
Cover by Yuko Shimizu
Everyone's read the Tommy Taylor books, the popular series of novels turned pop culture phenomenon about a boy wizard’s adventures. And everyone knows about Tom Taylor, the boy the novels were based on, whose life was so overshadowed by his Dad’s fictional epic that Tom’s become a lame Z-level celebrity at best and a human viral marketing tool at worst.
But what if the resemblance goes even deeper? What if Tom is the boy-wizard of the books made flesh? And if that sounds crazy, why is it bringing him into the crosshairs of an ancient faction that has never been named in any book or text?
To discover the truth about himself, Tom must search through all the places in history where fiction and reality have intersected. And in the process, he’ll learn more about that unwritten cabal and the plot they’re at the center of –– a plot that spans all of literature from the first clay tablets to the gothic castles where Frankenstein was conceived to the self-adjusting stories of the internet.
A conspiracy mystery a la The Da Vinci Code, THE UNWRITTEN is the eagerly anticipated reunion of Mike Carey (X-Men, HELLBLAZER) and Peter Gross (FABLES, Chosen) – the team behind the multiple Eisner-nominated LUCIFER. Acclaimed artist Yuko Shimizu (SANDMAN: DREAM HUNTERS) joins the duo on covers, and the series kicks off with a 4-issue opening storyarc with the extra-sized 40-page debut promo-priced at only $1.00!
On sale May 13 • 40 pg, FC, $1 US • MATURE READERS

I have a problem.
I can't log in on one of my accounts (password not working) and the e-mail address for it got deleted. Suggestions, please?
PostPosted: Thu Feb 19, 2009 4:39 am


Honestly?




Boned.

I have the same problem (More or less) with my main account. I don't remember the password, or the email. The mods won't/can't help.

So, I have a problem. And, honestly, I can't think of who to try and get advice from that could actually help me without there being repercussions.


I often feel the need, or even possibly the compulsion to hurt myself. I often wish my life would just end. I don't know what to do. I have gotten so angry that I have smashed my truck's windshield with my fist, while driving. I've gotten so angry that I've punched a hole in my bedroom wall, while being the only one home. The same day I smashed my windshield, (seconds later, in fact) I almost decided to just ram my truck into a steel lamp post on the highway. I've asked people at work how often a normal person should think about committing suicide a day and not be worried. Some days, I'll just break down crying in my truck on the way to places or from places. Other days, a while back, I would feel like pulling off the skin from my face. Just a compulsion, but not something I would actually do. But something I felt the need to do none the less. I feel like I need to put my cigarettes out on my left hand.

I'm not an idiot, and therefore won't hurt myself, or put myself through the trouble of having to deal with the pain after the compulsion has passed. I won't kill myself, because I am afraid of death and I know there are still people who care, and I wouldn't put them through that. Sometimes, it just hurts so much, I don't know what to do. I sleep days away at a time, when I don't have to work. and I hurt sometimes, no matter how much or little sleep I've gotten. I know it isn't from work. I can tell my work ethic has gone down, I've lost approximately 50 pounds in the past year, most of it only in a few months.

I need someone to talk to, and yet I don't want to talk about it. I know that the solutions others would offer, I won't go through with.

I remember the password but it doesn't want to work and Hotmail deleted the email address I used to create it with so I can't reset it.
What happened to being able to use the security questions?

Don't the security questions somehow interact with the email?
PostPosted: Thu Feb 19, 2009 7:00 am


I have no idea but I can't access the email address anyway so it doesn't matter.

I can give you a hint, that's about it. Would that help?

You can fill out the feedback form and they can help you. They usually will ask you questions to prove it's your account.

You need...need to get motivated to talk to a doctor. What you're describing isn't just being sad. It sounds like clinical depression, the kind that can be diagnosed and treated. You have to make the conscious decision that you're tired of feeling the way you are and reach out, though. Schedule a physical. During it, ask the doctor about your weight loss and lack of motivation. They will be able to refer you to real help.

My father did that very thing a few years back and his insurance covered it. He's on a light anti-depressant and meets with the doctor every six months. He's never been happier.

I whole heartedly agree with the post above me. When it's getting to the point that you want to hurt yourself and it's interfering to the point where it's not letting you live your life, it's time to at least talk to someone.
