    He Thinks I am Too Tall

    Napoleon syndrome Don't sweat it - this is classic "little man syndrome". I'm 5'10" and often wear heels. I have had all sorts of stupid comments from men in particular about my height, and always men who are shorter than me. It is so not worth getting upset about - his problem not yours...

    contact lens

    Yes, I wear soft contact lenses on weekends and glasses to work. They are great! They only become uncomfortable if I'm really tired when they stick to my eyes}( I am tempted to try coloured ones now - something subtle;-)

    why do the people we love the most hurt us the most?

    Hi there, I truly sympathise. I have had similar battles with my mother. It is truly amazing how much our parents’ words can really hurt in a way that others don’t. My mother’s comments about my awful skin and plump backside (made over 15 years ago) haunt me to this very day when neither are...

    Clean eating – HELP!!

    I have read and been inspired by K60 and other’s stories about clean eating, cutting out sugar/white flour etc.. for incredible weight loss. I am not a sugar/white flour addict so cutting these out is not a problem. What is really getting to me is that it just doesn’t seem to fit into my...

    O/T: Is this another double standard? Please advise

    Hello again, Well, I’ve finally managed to weed out of my ex-boyfriend his real reasons for ending our relationship. The one that hurt the most and is the most hypocritical is this - he himself has been divorced for 10 years and has a 13 year old son that he has full time custody of. I...

    Heartbroken again

    Hello again, I am reeling with shock today as my (serious) boyfriend of 6 months has decided to call it quits out of the blue. His reasons were that he could not cope with my divorce issues. He ended things on the phone in such a cold manner that I seriously wonder whether I ever knew this...
